Chapter 117: The Meeting

--- Chapter 117 ---

Bael Mansion, Front Gate.

"We have arrived," Venelana commented while opening the blind on the carriage, allowing them to see Bael Mansion's sight.

After seeing this, Honestly. Huo Yuhao was surprised at how grand the noble in the devils' community was. Even though he knew Gremory Clan was supposed to have bountiful assets because of Venelana's business skills, that didn't happen in this world because of his appearance in the great world.

Bael Mansion spanned several hundred kilometers, having several blocks of usage like a garden and living areas used by a different member of the family. The main mansion is a grand castle made of unknown black stone and a black flag with a purple flower pattern proudly placed on top.

Huo Yuhao sighed because he couldn't find any noticeable opponent inside this place. No wonder his Shishou doesn't want to join this little trip, as she would be bored to death.

'Wait, Shishou should have met the Vampire Faction when she arrived in Scotland, right? Don't tell me she was disappointed because Vampire here is weaker than expected.' Huo Yuhao put on a weak smile because he hyped Highschool DxD's world too much for Scathach.

The warrior queen was bound to be disappointed.

"What do you think, Lord Yuhao?" Venelana suddenly asked.

"The Bael Mansion has stood for more than one thousand years. We only renovated it twice in the past, so it still retained its former glory."

Huo Yuhao glanced at Venelana and replied, "It's okay."

"It's okay?"

"Yeah, The castle right is no different than a sand castle for me. Built on top of pride and greed, which bound to crumble slowly but surely." He added, which left Venelana silent for a moment.

Venelana blinked her eyes in surprise because she had never heard such a perfect description of Bael Mansion like this. For the first time, someone related to her. And hearing this makes the brunette devil's curiosity grow a little.

Of course, Venelana doesn't forget her duty, but maybe. Yes, perhaps Huo Yuhao could be a key to her freedom.

She kept her calm expression and responded, "I see. Quite a unique take from the legendary dragon god. After all, there is no way this small mansion amazed you."

Looking at Venelana's face, Huo Yuhao already guessed that lord bael had planned something. Even though her expression looks natural and her manner of speaking is polite, it's slightly forceful.

Nothing wrong with it, but he found it rather displeasing.

A person who couldn't speak their mind is nothing but a more inferior creature before the wicked. They couldn't gain freedom, to even desire what they wanted.

They kept talking for 3 minutes, and Huo Yuhao listened to Velenana's introduction to Bael Clan's rich history. Frankly, he was only interested in the Power of Destruction and Mana Stones mines of the Bael Clan.

The carriage stopped, and Huo Yuhao saw a familiar face waiting for him in front of the castle. He was amused because Serafall Leviathan finally could have such a firm expression.

'Or maybe not.' He looked at Serafall's slightly trembling legs.

Huo Yuhao also saw a butler and an arrogant-looking man observing the carriage with a solemn look. The latter clearly was the current lord of the Bael Clan, but he was awfully weaker than Venelana.

Venelana's strength is on par with Grayfia's before she got her twin martial soul awakened. And Lord Bael is barely qualified to be on the Title Douluo Realm.

Huo Yuhao also noticed that Venelana's expression changed a little when seeing Lord Bael. Its subtle changes, but they couldn't escape his eyes.

As the carriage's door got opened by the butler, Grayfia walked out first and checked the area for her master. She nodded and gave lord bael a suspicious glance.

Huo Yuhao stepped out and said, "Well, that was quite stuffy."

"I hope the meeting met my expectations."

Lord Bael frowned when seeing Huo Yuhao for the first time as he only saw his portrait. The people in the past described him as overly good-looking, with luscious blue hair and a pair of dreamy royal blue eyes.

'It's just exaggerated, I see.' Kromael proudly believed that he was more handsome than the legendary dragon god. Still, appearance doesn't mean anything when it comes to strength.

He maintained his noble facade and greeted, "Welcome to the Bael Mansion, Dragon God."

"Shall we enter the meeting room?"

"Sure." Huo Yuhao replied with a nod.

Everyone focused on the meeting between the Blue-Eyed Dragon God and the Great King Faction of the Underworld. They didn't realize that Huo Yuhao's shadow separated itself and stayed outside the mansion.

Skye and Bronzy guarded the area in case some annoying flies decided to mess with this meeting. Both Dragons keenly watched the space around the mansion, observing the possible space disturbance.

Huo Yuhao got escorted to the meeting room, where several people and the new devil's kings had been waiting for him. He looked at these old devils and grinned at them, sending a shiver to their fossil-like spine.

"Ah, some faces become wrinkled than before. A few of you are lucky that my saber didn't kill you that day, huh?" A casual comment suddenly comes from Huo Yuhao's mouth.

"Looks like the Great War doesn't teach you guys a lesson." He grabbed the nearest chair with ruler authority and brought it over.

Ajuka Beelzebub and Falbium Asmodeus couldn't help but furrow their brows, watching the usual haughty elders of the Great King Faction tremble upon seeing Huo Yuhao. They underestimated the Blue-Eyed Dragon God's action in the past.

A devil woman in her mid-thirties bowed herself before Huo Yuhao and greeted, "W-We humbly welcomed the Blue-Eyed Dragon God to the Underworld."

The other followed and added, "We humbly welcomed the Blue-Eyed Dragon God to the Underworld."

Kromael Bael expected this kind of reaction already. His ancestor, Zekram Bael, had warned him about the Blue-Eyed Dragon God's existence beforehand and told him to be wary every time.

However, he wasn't panicking or anything. That's because he has a special weapon to deal with Huo Yuhao.

'Be useful for the clan, Venelana.' Kromael thought while checking at the brunette devil beside him.

Everyone took their seats beside Huo Yuhao's companion.

Huo Yuhao watched everyone's faces in the room and commented, "Not everyone attended this meeting, right? I believed the Great King Faction had more members than this."

Kromael smiled and replied, "Unfortunately, only high-ranking clans within the Great King Faction and the devil kings could attend this meeting, Dragon God."

"We obviously would pass on the result later."

Huo Yuhao rubbed his forehead because this was getting more annoying than it should have been. He grabbed the chair's armrest and crushed it with his hand.

Crack!

A breaking noise echoed in the meeting room.

The old devils gasped when witnessing this.

"Oy, who do you think you are?" Huo Yuhao gazed at Kromael.

"Pardon??"

Kromael didn't expect a sudden shift of emotion from Huo Yuhao because he was actually friendly a second ago. The formerly reporter-looking young man now looks pissed for some reason.

Everyone's eyes suddenly widened as a powerful demonic aura exploded from Huo Yuhao's body, filling up the meeting room and blowing the magic-tempered windows away.

BOOM!

COUGH!!

"Listen, I'm not here to play with your childish noble blood shit." Huo Yuhao rested his chin on his hand.

"I'm here to conquer this world."

"Do you think I am a joke?"

BOOOM!

As the meeting room couldn't handle the pressure, the rooftop was blown away by Huo Yuhao's demonic aura. With all devils' bloodlines in his body, True Daemon's Race is a being that stood above them.

Huo Yuhao is the Demon King, so his presence alone could kill devils in the vicinity.

Kromael Bael gritted his teeth because he had never experienced such humiliation. His father always told him that he was born to be the winner of this era, having noble blood and the Power of Destruction flowing in his veins. Even the famous Ruin Empress is nothing but a pawn in his hand.

Today, that's not the case.

Huo Yuhao's aura didn't stop spreading and covered the whole area of Bael Mansion, creating a crack in the magical barrier. In a matter of seconds, several hundred kilometers flooded with crimson energy.

Clak!

Huo Yuhao raised from his seat and walked to Kromael Bael, looking down on the prideful devil. "I ask once again, who do you think you are?" He questioned while stepping on Lord Bael's hand.

"K-Kromael-!"

CRACK!

"ARGH!!"

"I said, who do you think you are?" Huo Yuhao repeated while releasing his Conqueror Haki a little.

Kromael Bael looked up and saw a towering figure akin to the pillar of heaven before him. The distance between them is too far to comprehend, making him feel weak inside out.

"I-I'm just a mere devil, Lord Dragon God..." He decided to swallow his pride once. Yes, just this once.

After everything was over, Kromael Bael and Bael Clan would be the only ones on top.

"Haa... It seemed just one isn't enough." Huo Yuhao commented while opening his palm, causing a radiating ball of energy to form. It was violent and filled with the intent to destroy everything.

Kromael immediately sucked a cold breath because he recognized this ability. No, everyone knows this ability.

Venelana covered her mouth in awe and mumbled, "Power of Destruction."

Huo Yuhao clenched his hand and crushed Kromael's leg with the Power of Destruction. And simply saying, "Hakai..."

"ARRRGGGHHHH!!!"

The Power of Destruction is the inherent ability of the Bael Clan's members, but when Huo Yuhao used it, this ability evolved even higher than usual.

After all, this world's power scaling scuffed from the beginning. Magic only needed the power of imagination and potent demonic energy for a devil.

Huo Yuhao possessed his previous life's memory with a powerfully high-comprehension mind, allowing him to reach something that the devils of this world can't do.

[You have upgraded "Power of Destruction." to "Concept of Destruction." Lvl 5]

"This is an example." Huo Yuhao released the concept of destruction.

"I'm here to take over this place."

"Surrender now, or I'll make you experience the same thing as this dumb shit."

"W-We surrender-!" The devils trembled when feeling the gaze of those terrifying royal blue eyes.

"Hold on!!" A shout suddenly echoed in the area.

Huo Yuhao clicked his tongue in annoyance and saw magic circles around the Bael Mansion, covering the sky with colorful lights. Evo issued a quest when this happened.

[Ding! You have triggered a quest]

[Name: A meeting's disturbance]

[Objective: Kill the Original Satan's Descendant(0/3]

[Reward: 10 Silver Upgrading Tickets and 1x Martial Technique Lucky Spin]

[Penalty: None]

[Do you want to accept the quest?]

[Yes/No]

Huo Yuhao pressed Yes and watched a devil woman in revealing attire revealing herself from the magic circle. He gauged her strength and was bored because this woman was no different than Lord Bael. They are trash in power and personality.

"Stop right there, Dragon God! How dare you conquer devils!!" Katerea Leviathan yelled while cropping her breast. "As the descendant of the Leviathan, I can't let this happen."

Serafall Leviathan clenched her hand and responded, "Katerea, please hear me out. You should surrender because I don't want to watch the massacre here."

"Think about it calmly. You're no match for Huo Yuhao."

"HMPH! IT'S UP TO ME TO DECIDE! SHUT UP, YOU LOWLY BITCH AND FAKE LEVIATHAN." Katerea returned with an even louder voice. It's filled with disgust toward Serafall, who dares to steal Leviathan's title.

"With Ophis's strength, no one could defeat me!!" She added proudly.

Ophis tilted her head because Katerea was stupid. She isn't even confident enough to fight Huo Yuhao herself, and her snake wouldn't do anything to the blue-haired monster.

'If I fought Yuhao, He'll be mad and stop giving me candy...' Ophis thought, having a pale complexion when imagining that.

Huo Yuhao cropped his finger into a hole and aimed it at Katerea Leviathan. "Skye." He called his servant indifferently.

"Bite her."

BAM!

A shadowy creature jumped from the darkness and swallowed Katerea's body, leaving the lifeless head to fall into the ground.

SPLAT!

The head splattered into meat paste and bones, causing everyone to become pale. They trembled because It was simply too fast for them to react.

[Objective: 1/3] Evo notified.

Huo Yuhao looked at the other descendants of the original devil kings and said, "I'm not giving you guys a choice. You had to die here and now."
