Chapter 782: Final Battle (Part 7)
Translator: imperfectluck Editor: Kurisu
The 100th level of the Chaos Abyss, the Ashen Furnace, the giants’ city of metal, was one of the few safe districts in the Chaos Abyss. Since there were a high number of Dimensional Doors leading here, this level was one of the most highly populated in the Chaos Abyss, with the Ashen Furnace being the largest city and trading post of all in the Chaos Abyss.
Not long ago, this place had become a battlefield where Chaos War God Donatis fought against the strongest adventuring group from the mortal plane. The place where the two sides fought was still rubble even now.
Currently, this neutral city was no longer able to maintain its past independence.
The silent Donatis was currently watching the ashen plaza not far away from the black iron gate. Several dozen large altars had been activated there, opening up a gigantic Dimensional Door that countless demons from various levels in the Chaos Abyss stepped into.
Demons weren’t similar to each other at all. They were capable of growing eight legs or nine arms if they wanted to. However, their power level couldn’t possibly be faked. The demons’ gigantic bodies and personal Chaos domains indicated that each demon here was a powerful elite with at least several centuries of experience.
The gigantic Donatis watched the demon army gather in the distance. Even though most of these demons weren’t his direct subordinates, Donatis’s War God blood boiled as he forever desired to do battle.
Wherever the Chaos War God was present, there would be an upcoming battle.
Nobody was near Donatis. Even the most arrogant Demon Lord would carefully retract their aura and tread with caution around the Chaos War God.
However, a large individual suddenly crash-landed and sent tiny stone shards flying everywhere.
Some of the stone shards flew right into Donatis’s face, but he didn’t even move or turn his head.
He simply frowned as his expression became even icier, without even attempting to conceal his displeasure and disgust.
“Isn’t this the venerated Chaos War God? How come I haven’t seen the heroic spirits that you’re so proud of?”
Even though this individual’s tone was quite humble, his words were really taunting. Everyone knew that Donatis had suffered significantly in the battle of Hell and lost all of his heroic spirits.
Anyone who dared to taunt Donatis like this without fear of instant death would have to be an equal-level existence to him.
“Babarot, I’ll properly have a fight with you if you manage to survive this upcoming battle.”
“Hah, battle? You’re calling this a battle? You’re actually saying that we’ll have a battle when there’s three of us Chaos Main Gods teaming up together!? All I see is a slaughter and blood show. Donatis, you actually think that the hicks in the mortal plane will give us trouble? It seems that your continuous defeats have dulled your combat fervor. Perhaps we should settle our old grudges right here and now!” the dark green Demon Main God Barbarot roared as he viciously stomped the ground with four feet, causing the entire Ashen Furnace city to tremble due to his tremendous size.
Donatis was already taller than the tallest castle walls, but Barbarot was even taller than Donatis by a significant amount.
Barbarot’s upper half was a red demon figure, while his lower half was a lion-shaped beast that was currently devouring flesh and blood. Several hundred gigantic snakes curled up around his tail. These snakes were all alive, and they were currently devouring a large demon that they had hunted on the way here.
“King of Beasts”, “Kills everything in his path”, “Forever hungry”, and so on. Barbarot had many nicknames, but his most famous nickname was probably “Devourer of Main Gods”.
In the previous Holy War, Barbarot had personally torn apart and devoured two Order Main Gods. As for the number of other Gods that he devoured… sorry, would you remember how much bread you had eaten in your life?
Barbarot was one of the most dangerous vicious beasts in the entire Chaos Abyss.
However, Barbarot hated Donatis more than anyone as Donatis had previously pulled out his venomous fangs.
Thus, the gigantic Chaos Main God Barbarot was shouting in pleasure at being so close to Donatis. Barbarot couldn’t tolerate his urge to tear apart his mortal enemy Donatis.
Donatis was frowning even more. He already had his own combat plan, but he also knew that Barbarot wouldn’t possibly show self-restraint, and might go crazy at any moment.
Donatis could only draw his sword and be on guard to defend himself. Barbarot only became more excited to see Donatis drawing his sword, reaching the point where a large amount of stinky blood started drooling out of Barbarot’s lion mouth. Even the snakes on Barbarot’s tail forgot to keep eating as they instead started hissing at the Chaos War God.
It seemed like the two Chaos Main Gods were about to have an explosive battle against each other before the demons even headed out.
However, a certain someone wouldn’t allow such a thing to happen after finally achieving this collaboration.
“Hey, hey, hey, let’s not start fighting until we at least reach the mortal plane.”
A bat-winged black demon descended from the sky. This time, Sophocles the Deceiver wasn’t equipped with the familiar greatsword on his back. He had quite a different appearance from how he usually only had a single sword.
Sophocles, the leader of this demon alliance, was wearing golden enchanted heavy armor all over his body, making him appear like a golden sculpture. His entire physical body was concealed under armor. Apart from his face, he seemed even more like a War God than Donatis did.
“Haha, isn’t this the little bat who ran away while panicking? How come you look like a golden turtle? So it was true how a hick from the mortal plane scared you so much that you tucked your tail between your legs and ran back to the Chaos Abyss?”
Barbarot instantly made Sophocles go into a bad mood just by saying some words. It could be seen that Barbarot really lived up to his reputation of being the most disliked Chaos Main God of all.
“Ha, I don’t even know what you’re all so afraid of. Can anything in the mortal plane even stop three of us Chaos Main Gods together?” Barbarot commented.
“Four, not three.” Sophocles smiled while holding up four of his fingers as he was really excited for his scheme coming to fruition.
“Four? Who else is there?”
“Sarwenstan, the Devil Lord of Tyranny. But from today onwards, starting from the moment that we enter the mortal plane, the Devil Lords and all devils will become part of history. All that will remain is our most intimate friend, Demon Main God Sarwenstan!”
Even the experienced Donatis showed an expression of surprise at this. Barbarot, who seemingly had no brains or ability to control himself, also carefully thought this over.
The devils had always been considered as a powerful species equal to the demons. The two species had forever warred in the lower planes. In every Holy War, the demons and devils would still be busy fighting each other during the Holy War. Sarwenstan was also an incredibly powerful evil existence that everyone in all the dimensions feared.
But according to what Sophocles just said, the entire devil species and their Devil Main God were going to abandon their devil pride and status, transforming themselves into demons. This was probably the most astonishing victory of all for the demon species in the past 5,000 years.
The other two Chaos Main Gods thought that there was something wrong with Sophocles’ mind when they first heard this, and that he must have been joking. However, they then realized that there was a blind spot in their thinking.
“Why wouldn’t Sarwenstan give up on the devils?”
The devils had weakened to such an extent that the entirety of the lower planes was ganging up on them. After this Holy War ended, the demons would be eliminating the devils entirely. Rather than dying a slow death with the remaining devils and their territory, it would be much more advantageous for Sarwenstan to completely abandon his devil pride and identity, and instead become a demon.
Why couldn’t he give up on the devils? Just because he was the leader? Nothing was more important than his personal survival. As long as he could survive, so what if he threw away his useless crown?
“Hahaha, I spent a great deal of effort on convincing Sarwenstan to accept my conditions. He was really so stubborn. I truly must thank Karwenz’s older brother for forcing Sarwenstan to the brink. Otherwise, Sarwenstan would never have agreed to this.”
Nobody replied to Sophocles, nor did he require a reply.
Donatis continued to look forward, where the Demon Lords that the Chaos Main Gods summoned kept arriving. A tremendous amount of demons were currently entering the Dimensional Door in a noisy manner.
Barbarot was currently reducing his physical size. An existence like him would have to make preparations to enter the mortal plane.
Just as inconceivable as the devils surrendering completely to their old enemy was how the Chaos Main Gods actually teamed up together now that the will of the Chaos Abyss no longer restricted them. Unlike the past foolish method where they would keep separate from and interfere with each other, this time they would simultaneously attack with full force!
The Ashen Furnace’s neutrality was completely meaningless in front of the three Chaos Main Gods. Countless demons passed through the teleportation portals here to reach the Dimensional Door leading to the mortal plane!
