Abyssal Lord Of The Magi World

The Neo-Demons were surprised by Ezequiel's outburst and the immense wrath in his voice.

The Supreme Neo-Demon made honor to his title as the Ancestor's Will, always calm despite the adversity. However, the fact he let his anger appear showed how strong his emotions were.

"Even if you all form Omega Laws and become Rank 8 life forms, you think that pathetic power will be enough to help Master in his final battle. You would be nothing but burdens on that type of battlefield." Ezequiel's rage grew as he spoke, making an invisible pressure assault on the Neo-Demons in front of him.

"We push ourselves to our absolute limits and unleash all the potential of our bodies and souls. There is not a day we do not strive to become better!" Totto rebuked Ezequiel's words, and his eyes glowed with willpower. He had never lacked dedication and hard work and did not believe the Supreme Neo-Demon assessment was correct.

The Supreme Neo-Demon focused on Totto. A smile appeared on his face but did nothing to diminish the pressure the Neo-Demons were feeling.

"So are telling me you all constantly strive to enhance your talent. How interesting." Ezequiel paused after that, and his consciousness began to form images above his head.

"After my first battle in Abyss, where I became a Demon Count, I was chased by three Rank 5 Demons. Back then, due to my injuries, I could not face them, but it would have been easy for me to escape with my World Mirage Rune. However, I did not."

The images above Ezequiel's head showed him running away from three giant demons.

Heinz and the others saw how the Supreme Neo-Demon dodged and countered the attacks of his enemies for weeks as his condition grew worse and worse. The most minimal mistake would have meant Ezequiel's death, but he managed to survive.

One day, as the hunt carried on, they saw a copy of Ezequiel appear out of nowhere and fuse with the one who was running.

The Neo-Demons recognized the newcomer as the Nether Spirit Avatar.

Once he reformed his original body, the Supreme Neo-Demon power skyrocketed. During this entire time, he had secretly fixed most of his inner wounds, tricking the demons who were hunting him.

A full-on battle carried on after that. Ezequiel could use the entire world as an energy pool thanks to his ability to commune with it, so his energy reserves were at their peak despite running for such a long time. The Demon Counts chasing him, on the other hand, were not in such a good state.

The Supreme Neo-Demon butcher them all. He ate their bodies and crushed their souls.

"A few years after that, I was tracked by a group of powerful humans whose strength vastly surpassed mine. They hid near my city and prepared to ambush me, but I managed to detect them thanks to my ability to communicate with the elements. I could have used the World Gate and returned when my power was high enough, but I did not. Taking advantage of their lack of preparation, I ambushed them, severely weakening the strongest and destroying the fighting spirit of the rest."

The images above Ezequiel changed, showing his fight against Hito and the genius youths of the Oruku World.

The Neo-Demons could tell how Hito's power surpassed that of the Supreme Neo-Demon, especially that last spell where he burned his life force to activate.

Even as the Dark Cage threatened to burn his body and crush his soul, Ezequiel's fighting spirit did not waver. Instead, the Supreme Neo-Demon used the threat of death to push himself beyond his limits and enhance his law comprehension to the point where he could fuse with his Law Avatar.

He used a single punch to break the cage, and then with a monstrous speed, appeared in front of the human and landed a palm strike that broke his body and severely wounded his soul.

"As I grew closer to Rank 5, instead of waiting for a lucky chance, I decided to create one for me. So I schemed to enter a secret dimension that had the key to help me push my body beyond its absolute limit and purify my bloodline. I tricked the Demon Marquises that went there, offering to share the opportunity with them, when the truth was that I planned to kill everybody."

Ezequiel's consciousness showed the events inside the Slaughter Trial. The Neo-Demons saw his fantastic display of power and wisdom.

They saw how the Supreme Neo-Demon once again chose to put himself in danger and fight against opponents who surpassed him. When the Devil Marquess revealed himself and ambushed Ezequiel, none of them understood how he could display a martial prowess, instincts, and technique so high as to respond to it. However, the Supreme Neo-Demon did and managed to kill everybody.

"There are countless adversities and lucky chances in the universe that we can use to enhance our potential and destiny, pushing our existences to a higher level. I got where I am, having power above what my race and bloodline can grant me because I decided to bet my life again and again, just for the tiny possibility I could become better."

Ezequiel's words shock the hearts and wills of the Neo-Demons. His racial heritage and bloodline were good enough to reach Rank 9 if he pushed himself to the limit, but the Prima Universe's limit was not good enough for the Supreme Neo-Demon.

Unshakeable determination and unwavering spirit. Willing to bet a glorious future as an Overlord of the Universe for the almost impossible chance of growing higher. A soul devoted to an idea for which he would do everything.

The Neo-Demons could not help but think that even if another Neo-Demon obtained a Primordial Bloodline, he could never compare with their race's Supreme.

"While seeking lucky changes and enhancing our destinies is essential, it would be meaningless if we fall. So should we not always make sure our chances of survival are high enough before doing anything?"

Dante's words made sense, and his approach was one taken by most powerhouses in the universe.

Heinz and the others found logic in his reasoning, but their instincts screamed as a horrific slaughter intent assaulted them. Dante was the one most affected as the pressure targeted him.

The Neo-Demons felt the coldness in Ezequiel's eyes as he focused on the youngest of them.

"If it weren't for Master's blood running through your veins, I would kill you here and now."

Dante's face grew pale as the feeling of being targeted by an unstoppable killing machine assaulted his will. He was sure that Ezequiel truly would have ended his life if he wasn't Zatiel's son.

"We are Neo-Demons. Even if we die, our Soul Seeds will bring us back to life. However, the price I would have to pay would be much higher than yours, and there is a high chance I could never restore my Primordial Bloodline to its peak. Are you telling me that the threat of a temporary death is too much for you?"

The Supreme Neo-Demon's words brought shame to the hearts of the group. Although they did not want to admit it, death still terrified them, and they did their best to avoid it, even if it meant losing the chance of enhancing their destiny.

"Prepare yourself. I will fight all of you at the same time. You better go all out and try to kill me because I will kill you if I have the chance. If you fall, then take the opportunity to work harder when you come back." The moment he finished speaking, an endless bloodlust and fighting intent covered the Neo-Demons.
