_____________

[Then how about I tell you the secrete to acquire ultimate magic]

Shublavara announces with a confident snicker in her voice as if she was confident she had trapped a rat perfectly in her trap, after all, for eons many scholars, and witches have sought out the secret to get their hands on Ultimate magic.

It was a power that is coveted by all, it is said all Ultimate magic users steps into the realm of pure impossibility, not only is it the oldest and most Arcane form of power any magic user can get their hand upon.

It is said all those who become Ultimate magic users become Nigh-Omnipotent by default, so the mere fact that Shublavara offers Asmodeus such a deal was, of course, something he could not reject.

However, that should have been the case, if the person the Witch of Eldritch was trying to tempt was not a Demon who isn't blinded by greed, or move by word alone so easily, as Asmodeus sighed and said.

**Sighhh!**

"Woman that offers bores me, I have no desire for Ultimate magic, my magic alone is enough to counter it, with enough training, so give me something more practical."

His response shocked the witch and she shouted.

[PRATICAAAAL D-D-Do you have any idea what Ultimate magic is D-D-DEMON?]

Shublavara asks with a shakey tone.

However, Asmodeus responded as such.

"Yes, magic that cannot be explained, the pinnacle of all magic power blah-blah-blah, the point is I don't want information, give me something I can use, not something I have to go out and find for myself, either that or I will turn around and forget about your existence woman."

[...]

Shublavara was shocked, she didn't think Asmodeus would reject her offer of Arcane knowledge, which could have made him much more powerful than he is now.

She can only think of two reasons why Asmodeus would refuse her offer one he is a massive fool, or two he already has a way to acquire it.

She couldn't!

No, she wouldn't believe that anyone would just shrug off an offer to become a true witch or warlock, after all, it is the final goal of all magic users, even a Demon King should agree to her proposal, and yet he casually denies her offer.

This new generation Demon King is more than meets the eye, even for a great witch like her, she can't help but think Asmodeus is more than just your normal typical Demon King.

However, she didn't have the time to ponder his immediate response as to why he denied her, after all, time was running out, it won't long till both his connection severed with him, and Pyyrah notice his presence, so she came up with another offer on the spot as well.

After all, she was desperate to escape her prison, and get her revenge on Pyyrah, after all, she will not rest until she figures out a way to have that cute head of hers.

Even if it means she has to give away one of her treasures she has to hide somewhere else, or even one of her powers, so she said in a serious voice, one filled with desperation.

[How about I offer you a weapon?]

"A weapon you say.... what kind of weapon?"

[Look I won't tell you the full details of my magical power, but I am capable of interacting with the unknown on a physical level]

"The unknown, as in eldritch beings?"

[I guess that's one way to refer to it, but yes, my magic allows me to tap into the power and interact with the unknown, which allows me to do many unexplainable things, beyond your wildest comprehension]

"Ok, and how is this related to a weapon."

[As of right now I can't use the full extent of my power due to it being sealed by that bitch, however, I have been saving a small stockpile within myself to escape when an opportunity emerges, however with what I have currently, I can only use it to build a body and open a portal to the realm of the unknown, but I don't necessarily need a body, all I need is form so I can walk and moved, so if you agree with me, I am willing to take half of my reserve and gift you a weapon]

"Any weapon?"

[Yes any weapon you desire]

Asmodeus didn't need to think anymore, he was actually in need of a certain weapon, he already has a sword, and a powerful morningstar which he can utilize at long age, however, he lack something essential to his armory, so he ask Shublavara to grant him a certain weapon as he said.

"Then I desire a shield, one capable of changing size, and capable of blocking power attacks."

[A shield you say]

"Why is it not possible?"

[No it is possible]

"Then grant me one this instant and we have a deal."

[So be it then, I shall craft you a shield like no other, a shield so powerful it is beyond your wildest comprehension]

Upon saying these words, Asmodeus's entire world froze in place, and for the first in his new life as a Demon King, even if it was for a moment he felt the true meaning of fear.

He felt the meaning of doom incarnate.

He felt the hopelessness that does in the abyss.

He felt the meaninglessness of it all.

He could not move, he didn't dare to breathe, much less think, his body became stiff, his heart began to race, and to make things worst he felt alone despite not being alone.

From behind him was darkness and not in name but in body, a small shadow or portion of that darkness stretched out to him, and grab onto his left arm, and began to seep into his pores as if it was becoming one with it.

His flesh felt like was being torn apart slowly but surely, his bones felt as if they became nothing but ash, and his blood felt as if was being drunk.

He felt as of his left hand was sacrificed in a way, the reason being the hand felt the same, but for some reason, he didn't feel like he owned it, even though he could move it, and feel the sensation of touch with it.

And after the darkness crawled and fuse with his arm, Asmodeus looked at what his left hand had become, the entire hand reaching the elbow, was pitch black.

And upon using his eyes to see what it is, what saw shocked him beyond his wildest dream, not because of its power, but because of what he was seeing, as he says.

"I can't see anything, why can't I appraise it?"

And the answer he got from Shublavara surprised him as she said.

[How can you appraise what cannot be seen, you can't look at the Darkness as there is nothing to look at, after all, before your hand, all attack is rendered unseen]

"I don't get it, what is this thing?"

Asmodeus asks pointing at his hand to which Shublavara responded.

[Your right, your left hand is no more it was eaten by the nameless darkness, so it can form a portion of itself into this world, that is the price you pay for its eternal protection]

"The nameless Darkness, who is that?"

[Hehehe although I would love to explain what the nameless darkness is, I will have to refrain from the tale because we are running out of time, I will explain sooner or later if our paths cross once more, but for now, you must defeat her, and free me from its protection]

"Defeat who?"

[The huntress Ekhidanta, the 2nd strongest witch killer who was born in the age of the Gods, her corpse is currently guarding my brains, I use that girl Nero's body to fight her earlier, and she almost won as well, but by almost winning I mean she came close to freeing me due to using the terrain to her advantage and destroyed a portion of the seal, however, she couldn't he even touch her, as Ekhidanta one shotted her before she regenerated]

"I see, interesting, she seems strong."

[Very strong]

"Agh... well then, shall we get going, it's not nice to keep a lady waiting, after all, there is no better person than me for a job like this."

[You're taking this for a joke like seriously Ekhidnanta is a monster among monsters, she even killed a Demon King before, in her Era she was the fear of all witches, and the only person who was her match was the true witches]

"Ohhhh really... interesting, very well then lead me to the legendary huntress."

[You seem excited]

"I have not met someone capable of being my match, I have fought armies of monsters before, and all of them fall to my blade, their king and queen were the strongest but even they couldn't take the full extent of my power, one became a melted mush of blood and flesh, and the other crumble like glass, now you're telling me a human exist capable of killing a Demon King, how can I not want to cross blade with a warrior of that caliber."

[Are you sure Lust is your sin?]

Shublavara asks with a neutral tone, to which Asmodeus, responded

"Of course Lust is my cardinal sin, my love for war and violence is on par with my love for the comfort of a woman's body, in this entire realm no one seeks more violence than I do."

[...]

"Now then lead me to the huntress, I want to feel her blade."
