"Hahaha, you mean her?"
Abel laughed and walked over to Kadileya, pinching her face.
The cool touch was like a corpse, but there was no strange odor from her body, and her skin still felt as it did when she was alive.
Abel looked at Diodora and said, "Of course she's dead, but I've played with her soul and kept her by my side forever."
Diodora's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.
"This is impossible! How did you do it?!"
His voice trembled slightly. To be able to keep a soul from being taken by those from the underworld, just how strong was the person in front of him?
However, Diodora quickly composed himself.
He possessed the power of Ophis; how could he possibly lose to the person in front of him?
"Everyone, attack him! Kill him, kill this guy!"
Hearing Diodora's command, his subordinates showed fear on their faces, but they still braced themselves and charged towards Abel.
Abel's lips curved upwards; he made no move.
Kadileya moved beside him, protecting Abel with icy eyes and an aura of death emanating from her.
"Go, Kadileya."
As soon as he spoke, she moved like a phantom, weaving among Diodora's peerage, each strike carrying sharp power.
With every move, a peerage member was sent flying.
The peerage's attacks were like child's play in front of Kadileya; her movements were light, and screams followed wherever she went.
Before long, most of the peerage lay on the ground, incapacitated.
Seeing this, a ruthless glint flashed in Diodora's eyes. The mark of Ophis appeared on the back of his hand, and his aura surged.
"Abel, you forced my hand!"
With that, Diodora raised his hand, and a green magic circle appeared.
Immediately, countless arrows made of magic power shot towards Abel.
Abel remained composed. He gently waved his hand, and a transparent barrier instantly formed in front of him.
The magical arrows struck the barrier, erupting in dazzling light, but they could not advance an inch.
Seeing this, Diodora's eyes were filled with shock and rage. He increased his magic output, the magic circle glowed brightly, and arrows poured down like rain.
"Using my cute dragon's power against me, you're really pushing your luck."
Saying this, Abel walked towards Diodora, enduring his attacks.
"Impossible! Impossible!"
"This is the power of the Infinite Dragon God!"
He looked at Abel, who was walking towards him step by step, and shouted in disbelief.
Abel said nothing.
He arrived in front of Diodora, raised his hand, and clenched his fist.
Boom!
Crack~
A sound of bone cracking rang out.
Immediately after, Diodora was sent flying backward, then heavily crashed onto the ground.
Abel looked at his fist, then at Diodora, "Interesting, to be able to block my casual punch with his head."
Whatever Abel said, Diodora didn't hear it, because half of his head had already caved in.
Blood also flowed from the wound.
"L-lying to a devil, right? How could I lose? I can't lose."
Diodora leaned against the wall and shakily stood up.
"How could I fall here? I had it all planned out: defeat Abel, then win against Sairaorg! And then perfectly become the head of the Astaroth family!"
After speaking, Diodora spat out a mouthful of blood and then collapsed.
Tap, tap, tap~
Abel walked towards Diodora step by step, his footsteps like a death knell.
"P-please spare me, I am also from the Astaroth family."
Diodora lay on the ground, looking at Abel and speaking in fear.
Just then, a pillar of light descended from the sky.
It struck Diodora, and without any reaction, Diodora dissipated from the area.
"So spineless, so cowardly. A guy like you is the downfall of the Old Maou Faction. So die, Diodora."
A voice rang out.
Immediately after, the green teleportation array from before opened. A person with long brown hair, covering one eye, and wearing armor slowly appeared.
"The repulsive younger brother of the fake Demon King Beelzebub."
"I am Shalba Beelzebub, the legitimate heir of Demon King Beelzebub!"
At the same time, on the other battlefield belonging to Azazel and his allies.
A man with a ponytail, pointy ears, and sharp teeth stood with his eyes closed on a battlefield where magic danced.
"I am Kruzelei Asmodeus, a direct descendant of Demon King Asmodeus."
Kruzelei spoke, then looked at Azazel, who was wearing a trench coat.
"One of the major masterminds has appeared."
Azazel scrutinized him, then continued, "Speaking of which, I seem to have eliminated a Leviathan descendant from the Old Maou Faction."
Although Azazel said he eliminated her, it was actually that kid Abel who did it. After all, he couldn't let these guys cause trouble for Abel.
So Azazel took the credit for himself.
As Azazel spoke these words, Kruzelei's eyes turned blood red. It was this person! It was this person!
Kadileya, I will avenge you!
Kruzelei looked at Azazel and angrily said, "So it was you! It was you, you bastard! I will avenge Kadileya Leviathan!"
"Woah~ Woah~ So she was that old hag's lover, truly devoted~"
Azazel suddenly realized, then chuckled maliciously, "Then I'll send you to the underworld to meet her!"
...Abel looked at Shalba flying in the air and rubbed his neck.
"Hey, no one makes me look up."
Hmm... except when lying on the sofa at home, looking at the tempting scenery.
"Hmm!?"
Shalba looked at Abel, then raised his hand. Ophis's power reappeared, "Ajuka's younger brother, I will send you..."
Just then, Kadileya, having dealt with Diodora's peerage, charged towards Shalba, then delivered a punch.
Shalba raised his hand, and a magic shield appeared.
When he clearly saw who it was, Shalba's eyes widened just like Diodora's.
"Kadileya!?"
He never expected that Kadileya, also a direct bloodline of a Demon King, would actually help the hypocrite of the current Demon King to attack him!?
Could it be that Kadileya wasn't dead, and surrendered to Sirzechs and the others to save her life!?
Thinking of this, Shalba became enraged.
"Kadileya, you traitor!"
Saying this, he shot a ray of'Sanction Light' towards Kadileya, intending to annihilate her there.
Traitors should not be left alive.
The'Sanction Light' pierced through Kadileya's body, but would a mere fatal wound affect an undead?
It had no effect.
Kadileya also raised her hand, then shot a ray of'Sanction Light' towards Shalba.
"What!?"
Shalba quickly dodged the attack.
When he re-examined Kadileya, he finally realized that the Kadileya in front of him was a lifeless corpse.
In other words, Kadileya was truly dead.
So... Shalba angrily shouted at Abel, "Bastard, what did you do to Kadileya's corpse!!!"
