"Although he had experienced a series of difficult battles, Asta's voice was still full of energy.
And what Asta saw at first glance was naturally Lucius.
"As expected, you're definitely not the Wizard King!"
Saying this, Asta, carrying the Demon-Slayer Sword, was about to charge when Drake, who appeared in front of him, stopped him with a hand.
"Although I don't mind letting you have the opponent, you have more important things to do right now, right!"
Asta bit his lip, he also understood that now wasn't the time to act on impulse.
By now, three gates to the underworld had already been opened, and if it continued, even higher-ranking devils would come out, and at that time, Yami and Vangeance would also lose their lives.
So Asta glanced at the little black person sitting on his shoulder, that was the devil Liebe, who had once been in his grimoire.
After contracting with Asta, his power had flowed into Asta's body, and he could usually only act in this miniature form.
Liebe looked at Drake, it was this guy who had made Asta and him exchange memories, and he really wanted to properly question the other party about why he had given Asta such a thing.
In the special training before, Asta had used the method that Nacht had provided to make Liebe descend from the grimoire into the present world.
At the beginning, Liebe had rejected Asta's suggestion to communicate, and had then started fighting him in order to seize Asta's body.
Liebe believed that he understood Asta well enough, so he didn't think that he would lose.
After all, Asta didn't have a single bit of magic power in his body, and couldn't use magic either. The only anti-magic power was what he had brought to him, and Asta, who could only train his body, shouldn't have had any possibility of victory.
However, in reality, he didn't understand Asta enough, otherwise he should have known that Asta was definitely not just a boy who couldn't use magic.
So Liebe had lost, and what had made him even more embarrassed was that he didn't know why, but it was as if the two's souls had fused together during the battle.
Those memories of Asta, both those that he knew and those that he didn't know, had been playing out in his mind one by one, and he could even feel Asta's mood at the time.
And then he had discovered that the same thing had happened on Asta's side as well.
The feeling of his past being completely displayed before someone else, and even the thoughts in the depths of his heart being exposed, was really too shameful.
Asta had always been consistent on the inside and outside, but Liebe had a feeling that he wanted to die.
Until even the parts of Asta's memories that he himself had forgotten had been displayed in the two's minds.
That was Liebe's adoptive mother, Richta's face, which was covered in tears, she was also Asta's mother.
The effect that Drake's magic tool had achieved had even exceeded Drake's imagination, and the two had quickly reached a mutual understanding, taking the exchange of memories as their starting point, and had then completed the training of devil synchronization.
Liebe had given Drake another fierce glare. To be honest, he was very grateful to Drake, because it was because of Drake that he had been able to know about Asta's relationship with Richta, and it was also because of this that he had been able to have a new family.
However, he was still going to be unhappy, and he would remember that feeling of being stripped bare for the rest of his life.
Drake had understood his thoughts after seeing Liebe's expression, so he had given him a "friendly" smile.
If Asta hadn't already started to take action, Liebe would have definitely jumped up and torn apart Drake's face, which had that hateful smile on it.
In the end, Liebe had clicked his tongue unwillingly, merging into Asta's body, activating anti-magic devil synchronization.
"Cool! But why haven't you grown any taller!" Drake said this.
Asta had been happy for a moment after hearing the first half of the sentence, but the second half had directly hit his vital point.
To be honest, Asta's appearance in devil synchronization was much more pleasing to the eye than the Dark Triad's.
Having entered devil synchronization, Asta hadn't deviated too far from his human form, he had only put on a suit of armor that was mainly black, with red patterns.
He had grown two more horns on his head in addition to the two curved horns that he had had before, and his pupils had turned into black and red cross pupils.
The teeth in his mouth had also become sharp, and black devil wings had spread out behind him, and a slender tail had also extended out from the end of his spine.
The five-leaf grimoire had flipped open, and Asta had reached out his hand, grabbing the hilt of the sword that had drilled out from the pages, drawing out the Demon-Slayer Sword, which had already been dyed pitch-black by anti-magic power.
Asta had only swung the Demon-Slayer Sword in the air, and the time spheres that had been accelerating the Tree of Qliphoth descent ritual had shattered.
Then Asta had bent over, charging towards Yami and Vangeance below.
Drake was watching Lucius with full vigilance, but what was surprising was that Lucius didn't have any intention of obstructing Asta.
On the contrary, he had revealed a smug smile on his face.
Buzz!
A low voice rang out, and the air in the entire space had twisted, and everyone had been tightly suppressed by the suddenly increased pressure.
Drake turned his head to look over, and saw that those black root-like objects had coincidentally proliferated a large amount of flesh tissue.
Those pieces of flesh were frantically devouring everything, and all of the devils who had rushed out after the Gate of the Underworld had been opened had merged into it.
Rocks, soil, and even the magic power in the air had been devoured as nourishment for proliferation, and it had quickly turned into a hideous and vast monster.
Nacht, who had entered devil synchronization, had only managed to crawl up, enduring the suddenly increased gravity.
"Damn it, this is Lucifero's power, he's going to use the Tree of Qliphoth as a vessel to manifest in the present world."
Everyone in the Black Bulls squad had output all of their magic power, and had only then made the base move again, taking everyone out, avoiding being devoured by those pieces of flesh.
Those disgusting flesh tissues wriggled, and the huge monster let out an deafening roar.
Drake had also flown outside, coldly watching this monster, which was emitting a magic power that made people despair.
Lucifero, the supreme devil of the lowest layer of the underworld, possessed the strongest magic power in this world, and also the magic power to control gravity.
In addition, as the devil king, he also had the ability to forcefully dominate other devils.
Richta had been killed by Liebe because he had been controlled by him, and it was also because Liebe couldn't break free of the control himself that Richta had sealed him in the five-leaf grimoire.
And now, he was controlling all of the devils who had already come to the present world, plus the Tree of Qliphoth, in order to descend into the present world even though the corresponding Gate of the Underworld hadn't been opened yet.
Stella descended from the sky, coming to Drake's side, saying, "Drake, that guy is very bad news, right! Let's hurry and deal with him!"
Drake smiled wryly, starting to think about whether this was a backlash from him interfering too much.
The battles had clearly been quite smooth before this, but he hadn't expected that an accident would occur in the end.
In the original story, Lucifero had only used the devils of the first and second layers as the vessel for his possession, but now the devils of the third layer had also been swallowed inside.
In the original story, Lucifero had only sent half of his magic power over, but this time, it looked like more than 60% of his power had already descended.
A black line swept over, that was precisely Asta, who was wielding the Demon-Slayer Sword that had been transformed from the katana that Yami had given him, unleashing a strike that imitated Yami's magic.
That huge monster had been cleanly split in two, and Yami and Vangeance had also broken free of their bonds as a result, falling down.
Drake didn't have a feeling of relief, because Lucifero's vast magic power had begun to condense.
