📜 Scene — The Return of the Ruler of Death
Lilith stared at the corpse before her with focus…
It was not an ordinary corpse.
It was…
The remains of one of the forgotten rulers.
Or rather—
What was left of him after he had been destroyed long ago.
She said coldly:
"How… did you take possession of this deformed corpse?"
The corpse did not answer immediately.
Instead, it stared at her for a few moments…
Then let out a cold, lifeless laugh:
"I have returned… to reclaim what is mine."
"Lilith… will you help me?"
Lilith narrowed her eyes in confusion:
"You want to take control of the demonic continent again…?"
"Just like you did in the past?"
Then she smiled with deadly sarcasm:
"But look at yourself…"
"You've become nothing more than a corpse."
"A body that can be killed…"
"You are no longer an immortal ruler."
Anger ignited in the creature's eyes…
And it spoke in a distorted voice:
"This… is the price I paid."
"Sacrifice… to return to this world."
Lilith laughed lightly and waved her hand dismissively:
"A pleasure meeting you… corpse."
In an instant—
She disappeared.
📜 Scene — The Ruler's Anger
The creature looked at the place where she vanished…
And said with slight irritation:
"If I could kill her… I would have done it long ago."
"She is still… the same."
He looked at his new body…
In silence.
Then muttered:
"I won't rush this time…"
"I don't know what that woman will do…"
"She is… unpredictable."
📜 Scene — Lilith in the Sky
Far from the continent of Mira…
Lilith was flying over the sea at tremendous speed.
She said with slight concern:
"Why has that ruler returned…?"
"Wasn't he annihilated long ago?"
She thought for a moment…
But found no answer.
She shook her head…
And headed toward the Fallen Islands.
But—
Before reaching them—
She suddenly stopped.
She felt something strange in the sky.
She changed direction quickly…
And moved toward the source of that energy.
As she approached—
She laughed coldly:
"It seems the angels… still possess some power."
She had sensed the Roots of the Sky belonging to the angels…
Protected by ancient magic.
She looked toward the hidden islands…
Then suddenly—
Her expression changed.
"This power…"
"Is terrifying."
She sensed the presence of an extremely powerful entity there.
She immediately stepped back.
And thought to herself:
"Did they manage to train someone with this level of power… in such a short time?"
She couldn't comprehend it.
And she didn't risk staying.
She vanished quickly—
Heading back toward the demonic continent.
📜 Scene — The Decision to Return
As she traveled…
She thought:
"Why would the dragons allow the angels to remain near them…?"
"And why would they leave the corpse of that evil ruler… on their land?"
She knew very well—
Dragons possessed immense power…
And terrifying instincts for danger.
So…
She couldn't understand what was happening.
This time—
She didn't rely on herself.
Instead, she decided to go to the only one who might have the answer.
The Demon King.
📜 Scene — The Demon King's Warning
After some time…
Lilith arrived at the demonic continent.
She went straight to her father's throne…
Stood before him, and told him everything that had happened.
The Demon King sat in silence…
His massive body like a mountain.
His red eyes…
Radiated terrifying power.
Any weak being who looked into them—
Would die instantly.
Lilith looked at him calmly…
Waiting for his response.
Finally…
He spoke.
In a low voice, yet filled with overwhelming authority:
"Do not leave the demonic continent from now on… Lilith."
"Not you… nor any of the rulers."
"Do you understand?"
Lilith's eyes widened in shock:
"Why, Father?"
Then she added confidently:
"If you're worried about that corpse… it doesn't even have a quarter of its former power."
"And it will never return to what it was."
"And if you mean the angels…"
"No matter how much power they regain… they won't surpass us."
She paused for a moment, then said:
"So why this decision?"
The Demon King looked at her…
Then smiled faintly with sarcasm:
"Do you think I even consider those beings?"
He continued coldly:
"Yes, the return of that ruler is a danger…"
"But as you said… he will never return to what he was."
"He lost everything… in the distant past."
Then he looked toward the sky, as if seeing the unseen:
"As for the angels…"
"They think they have regained their power."
A deeper smirk appeared:
"But they… are still fools."
Lilith was silent for a moment…
Then said slowly:
"Then… why are you concerned?"
Her father looked at her directly…
And said in a completely different tone:
"I am not concerned about them."
He paused…
Then said:
"I am concerned about… the dragons."
Lilith's eyes widened.
"And… what they are planning."
Silence filled the space.
Then he added in a low voice, carrying a strange weight:
"What they are preparing for…"
"Is not something simple."
Lilith felt something new…
Real concern.
She thought for a moment…
But before she could ask—
The Demon King shook his head and closed his eyes:
"Go and rest now… my child."
"You have not yet recovered… from our last battle."
Lilith froze for a few seconds…
Then looked at her body.
She remembered—
The battle a thousand years ago.
When she fought alongside her father on the front lines…
Against the angels.
The injuries…
The pain…
The destruction.
She shook her head firmly, trying to forget those memories.
Then bowed slightly and said:
"Farewell… Father."
And disappeared.
📜 Scene — Years Later in Asgard
Many years passed…
In Asgard—
Odin sat calmly upon his throne.
Before him…
His children, and the children of his brothers…
Played innocently.
The scene was peaceful…
Reassuring.
But—
Suddenly…
Odin felt…
Something strange.
He slowly raised his head…
His eyes narrowing…
