(3rd PoV)
"Clayman is dead."
Kagali announced.
Laplace shouted.
"I told that idiot to not try anything!"
Yuuki sighed, "It seems that Apolloyon really wants to be our enemy. Well, it's time that Western Holy Church takes action against the new Demon Lord. Hinata should have already gotten rid of Shizu-sensei."
Just as they were discussing about their future strategies, the roof broke and Apolloyon crashed in the room.
Yuuki and Laplace tried to attack the intruder, but their heads got pierced by concentrated light caused by Megiddo.
Yuki's Anti-Skill couldn't do anything against it. And as he died, his Anti-Skill naturally turned off.
Apolloyon ate the two while keeping his eyes on Kagali.
[Unique Skill Creator acquired]
[Anti-Skill acquired]
[Unique Skill Falsifier acquired]
[Unique Skill Seer acquired]
"Y-you..."
Kagali felt true terror as she met his blue eyes, looking at her as if she is nothing worthy.
"Diablo, extract information from her."
As Apolloyon said that, Diablo appeared before Kagali.
She will face a fate worse than Yuuki and Laplace, who were simply eaten without much pain.
Next, Apolloyon disappeared from Engrassia and appeared over Lubelius.
"So this is the base of the cult that dared to kill my underling..."
Apolloyon didn't fully trust Shizu to not spill the beans. She was a very strong and valuable underling, but not fully loyal. And especially her Unique Skill [Isekai] was something he had his eyes on.
So he had Souei send one of his clone in her shadow.
But due to the barriers Hinata set up, he couldn't come out of Shizu's shadow.
And after she was killed, the shadow from which he could appear no longer existed, and he had to follow the cultists on his own from the beginning.
"They have not yet reached Lubelius. The kids are with them."
"I see."
[Deploy Devourer barrier over Lubelius?]
'Yes.'
And so, a countrywide Devourer barrier was deployed. A feat impossible for an ordinary Demon Lord.
"Since you all hate monsters so much... I will turn you all into monsters."
Apolloyon wasn't someone cartoonishly evil guy who will genocide people uselessly.
It's another matter if it's useful.
[Report: Their soul energy can be utilised for awakening underlings.]
'Oh. I see.'
[Report: Total population of people currently in Lubelius is 4,000,078. A True Demon Lord soul is detected, which can be used for sprouting the second Demon Lord seed.
Two Demon Lord seeds are detected, so they can be granted to two non-Demon Lord Seed level underlings.
Moreover, a True Hero's body with same composition as the one from the future which tried to attack you has been detected.
Report: A total of 48 underlings can be awakened. But currently, only Diablo, Benimaru, Solgaleo and Rayquaza qualify.]
'Oh? I thought that dragons follow a different path than Demon Lord?'
[Rayquaza is not a pure dragon species. He is a slime, so Demon Lord path follows.]
'I see.'
"So, devour it all, Abyss God Naraka!"
The time between deploying the Devourer Barrier and the devouring was less than a millionth of a second. Knowledge God Nexis has reached a truly incredible power of Thought Acceleration.
Demon Lord Luminous's subordinate vampires, eight of the Ten Great Saints currently in Lubelius, and the ordinary people, didn't even notice what happened and they all were eaten.
Demon Lord Luminous tried to resist, even evolved her Unique Skill [Lust] into Ultimate Skill [Lord of Lust: Asmodeus] with her desparation.
She tried to teleport, but the Tartarus Imprisonment properties of Abyss God Naraka refused to let her escape.
She, the god of Luminism was easily eaten.
[[The soul nutrition for sprouting the Demon Lord Seed has reached.]]
As the Voice of the World started announcing his second awakening, Guy Crimson appeared.
