The maid squad is too strong, what use is there for me, the Demon King?

The Demon Order's objective is now clear.

He caused trouble during the Holy Light Pilgrimage, summoning the demon Thurt, who possesses desire for knowledge and truth, in order to lure out the angels and kill them in one fell swoop.

The Knowledge and Truth faction is the most devout faction within the demonic order, and the one most closely connected with the demons they believe in.

All his actions were entirely in the interest of the demon of knowledge and truth, Thurt, and were carried out entirely according to Thurt's will.

This incident was orchestrated by Thurt, the demon of knowledge and truth, and carried out by cultists.

The demon hovered high in the air, its claws gathering magical power, seemingly determined not to let the others in the secret realm go.

Demons are creatures with an extreme fondness for killing, so naturally they would not spare anyone present.

Although the demon was covered in wounds from the battle with the angel, it was still a tenth-order life form that stood at the pinnacle of the world. Even in this state, it was beyond the capabilities of the people of the Olmec Kingdom to contend with, not to mention the Demon Cult was also watching from the sidelines.

"Then, let's begin the wrap-up."

The Shadow Court's hunting operations against the Demon Order have always been hampered, as they have been unable to locate any high-ranking members or large bases of the Demon Order.

Now, with an opportunity to crush a major faction of the Demon Cult in one fell swoop, and even completely eradicate the demons they worship, Gray naturally couldn't let it pass.

The sense of being spied on from an unknown source had vanished, and Gray was now completely uninhibited.

"Ipsyron, the cultists are in your hands. Do your best to make sure not a single one escapes. I'll be right back!"

Having said that, his figure no longer hid in the darkness, and his body slowly floated up, the dazzling purple-black light screen illuminating the universe!

"Yes, I wish you good fortune in battle." Ipsyron replied respectfully, then walked towards the cultists guarding the teleportation gate.

The portal is now occupied by cultists, and the portal is the only way to leave.

Therefore, Gray's orders to Epsilon were to kill all the cultists, reclaim the portal, and facilitate his subsequent exit.

Lia has been placed in a safe place and will be found by the Church of Holy Light and safely taken out of the secret realm once the incident is over.

The prerequisite is to resolve this series of events.

The moment the purplish-black light screen lit up, the massive body of Thurt, the demon of knowledge and truth, trembled, and his pupils shrank sharply.

This immense magical power is undoubtedly of the same level as Him, and its magical power and intensity even surpass His prime!

The demon panicked. Even at its peak, it was weaker than a being that could unleash such magic, let alone now, after having just fought an angel and being covered in wounds!

This demon, who brings fear to the world and finds deliciousness in fear, is now tasting the feeling of fear itself.

How could this be? Did we misjudge? Killing that angel shouldn't have resulted in anything unusual.

Could it be that the other angels, seeing their brethren killed, came down in a fit of rage to avenge Him?

Impossible. Those angels aren't that united. Their relationship isn't even as harmonious as that between the major demons. Besides, this magic isn't of the light attribute, so it couldn't possibly be from any other angel.

What other creatures could possess such magic?

This magical property leans towards the dark side of the demons, but it could never be one of His six colleagues.

The other six demons are still unable to break free from the Netherworld Prison.

The owl-like pupils of the demon of knowledge and truth, Thurt, swirled in their sockets, reflecting a black-robed figure slowly rising upwards.

The moment he saw this humanoid figure, the demon of knowledge and truth, Thurt, immediately thought of that word.

Devil.

No wonder He was so familiar with this magic; it was the pathetic king of that race.

He immediately breathed a sigh of relief. In His view, the Demon King had no reason to be hostile to Him. On the contrary, the Demon King was overjoyed that He had disrupted humanity's Holy Light Pilgrimage.

wrong.

Before He could relax for long, He realized something was wrong.

Why would this demon king appear here and display his demonic power?

He sensed the chilling killing intent emanating from the man in black robes and felt a chill run down his spine.

Something is wrong. Ten percent or even nine percent wrong.

How could the Demon King have reached His level? How long has this generation of Demon King been developing? Hasn't the Hero defeated the Demon King yet?

Philippa witnessed all of this from below.

Demons descend, angels appear, fierce battles, angels fall, and then...

"Demon King!"

They let them go last time, and now they've reappeared at this time.

What does he want to do?

“I”

As the black-robed man uttered letters, the purplish-black light screen that covered the entire secret realm suddenly lit up, and the magic power became more solid.

The demon of desire and truth has been identified; this demon king is preparing a major attack and truly wants to kill Him!

Escape? Escape to where? Back to the main plane?

Wouldn't that mean even more death? Even if He were to escape from the Demon King by sheer luck, wouldn't escaping to the Prime Material Plane be just courting death?

That one might stand idly by while they run rampant and act recklessly in the secret realm, but it would never stand idly by while demons enter the prime plane.

The one who sealed the seven demons was not invincible. The demons themselves did not know why he had simply sealed them in the Netherworld Prison. This was the "truth" that the demon of knowledge and truth, Thurt, had been pursuing all along.

The demon of knowledge and truth, Thurt, uses the power of darkness and truth. Only by constantly interpreting "truth" will the power of truth grow until it is enough to rival that one, thus completely breaking free from imprisonment.

He knew that running away would mean losing his chance of survival, so he could only try to persuade the demon king to let him go.

"Demon King, there is no reason for us to be enemies."

You and I are both prisoners in this dimension, striving to break free of our cages.

We are fellow travelers on this journey; killing me will bring you no benefit!

Upon hearing these words, Gray's eyes lit up, but he remained outwardly unmoved.

This demon must know a lot, after all, he is known as the demon of knowledge and truth. He wanted to see if he could get something out of him.

“AM”

A vast amount of magical energy fluctuated wildly within the secret realm. The demon also sensed the threat of death, and its speech quickened, clearly indicating that it was in a hurry.

"You don't know anything yet, do you? The Demon King and the Hero exist for..."

The demon's hoarse voice abruptly stopped there. As if something had gripped his throat, his massive body trembled, unable to utter a sound.

Gray sighed softly.

It seems I won't get the answer I want.

Goodbye then.

"A TO M I C!"
