It would not be wrong to say that this battle would not last that long, and Atlas was right in his judgment. His body was filled with pain again after ten minutes, but it was no illusion.
Atlas felt a warmth in his body. When his gaze returned to his abdomen, that is, to the area where he felt the heat, he saw a hand coming out of his abdomen.
Beelzebub's hand.
Before he realised what was happening, Beelzebub chuckled and then said, "Come on, I'm not that stupid. What makes you think I'm going to give you time?"
Atlas instantly fell to the ground, helpless.
Neither his sister, whom he had come to rescue, nor the Sages were with him. Neither Aveline, whom he considered his mother, nor Cosmo himself.
He was about to let himself die when he heard a voice in his mind:
"Come on! I didn't give you that pill for nothing, call him!!!"
Atlas knew exactly who that voice belonged to, someone he had only spoken to once before.
Lucifer.
