Chapter 60 - 55. Final Battle

"Are you all just going to stay silent?"

The six great demons, still shocked by the news Galadriel had brought, turned in unison, seeing angels surrounding them from every direction. Their tridents pointed sharply toward them, and mocking laughter was heard whispering evilly. The world was turned upside down, angels like demons, and demons like angels.

They did not remember the reason.

Beelzebub stood up while snorting in amusement. "Yes. We are silent and watching the defeat that will come to you. As long as you know, Lucifer is a monster?"

"Monster? What I know is Lucifer is a traitor and a coward."

"You are the cowards. Trapping our Lord with your cunning. Do you not once feel ashamed leaning on the status of sky dwellers, when your behavior is like parasites that live off and destroy their host?" Amon grinned in full triumph.

Karya stood up quickly, facing those angels very closely until Asmodeus could not stop him. "Don't waste all of your time talking to these bastards. If they want to fight, serve them as best as possible. After that, they will be silent by themselves."

Little Belphegor approached Karya. "Lucifer is fighting for the underworld and our Lord. We must not lose to him. We must also do something."

Belial advanced near Karya as well. "I have an idea. What if we finish them off, and make their corpses an offering at the graves of our comrades?"

"I agree with your opinions." Amon answered and Beelzebub beside him nodded.

Asmodeus sighed softly. "I cannot allow this." His words made the others turn toward him.

"Don't stare at me sharply like that." Asmodeus approached. "I just cannot allow you to look so cool by yourselves. Take me with you." His envious smile made the others laugh.

The demon side and the angel side faced each other fiercely. Their gazes were both thirsty for victory.

Their hidden hands summoned weapons and prepared mana in large amounts. The angel side was superior in the size of their mana capacity, meanwhile the demon side, though not as large as the angels, had very clever minds and extraordinary control.

Both had advantages, and both had disadvantages.

"Attack them!!"

A tremendous roar sounded. Lightning struck the ground, trees and fragile buildings.

Magics began colliding with each other in the air. The explosions were extraordinarily loud until they shook the ground. The surroundings felt stifling. Dust flew everywhere. The sky was decorated with blazing red color and the land was flooded with blood.

Corpses fell like ants. Hundreds of thousands or more humans died. Their nature-element magics were only a small matter before the two great magics of light and darkness. Under suffering and cries, humans could only regret their decisions.

"Demons are so cruel!"

"Cursed be you, demon race!"

"Shame on you!"

Who did it, who was blamed, that is how demons were insulted for sins they did not commit. Humans knew one thing, those who live above in the light are noble, while those who live below in the darkness are despicable. That assumption is what they will pass down to their descendants later.

In the middle of the chaos and insults, a young boy from the Elf race stood silent in confusion. Which judgment should be taken. He saw, the fault centered on the sky creatures, and secondly the human race who were seduced by trickery.

The Elf race will not join the ranks of either side, but as a wanderer he was obliged to help, to side with the party that would bring peace to the Elves and be right. However.... now it is difficult. Those demons...

"Hey Aethoniel, what are you doing just standing silent there. Swing your staff, and throw your magic at the demons. Lucifer is so tough, you see. Lord Galadriel is having difficulty fighting that cunning demon." His uncle shouted from behind.

"Bu-but, uncle..."

"Quick! We must finish this war or if not, the world will experience worse destruction."

"Al-alright!" That little child ran around attacking here and there in confusion. His heart felt that the sky side was the one at fault but...

Destruction could not be avoided. Falling magic attacks destroyed the buildings below. Cracks in the ground spread to the human world, bringing chaos all the way there.

People ran to save themselves. Large flames devoured and burned everything near them, inviting the sounds of screams and cries of small children on the noisy street. There was no longer any place to take shelter.

In the sky? Up there it looked more terrifying. Thousands of magic attacks shot like falling stars at the speed of light. Light and darkness created a beautifully terrifying sight.

A chase happened, angels and demons. They were very agile using their wings and throwing attacks. In the group of six demons they were almost overwhelmed facing thousands of angels. But not as bad as facing the king who ruled them.

Win or lose, they will fight until the end. They must not lose to the former angel who became a demon not long ago. They also had to show their abilities and sense of loyalty to the underworld.

"Lucifer!"

Lucifer turned, seeing Galadriel chasing behind him. Several times Galadriel threw attacks, and Lucifer managed to avoid them. It was clear Galadriel was annoyed because Lucifer was so agile like a snake.

Among the narrow corridors Lucifer stopped flying, and hovered above the ground. "I acknowledge your worthiness as King of the, Galadriel."

Galadriel stopped not far in front of Lucifer, looking at his most loyal former subordinate, the highest archangel, with full anger. The fallen angel had not lost his cleverness and his strength even though he had fallen. On the contrary, Lucifer had become stronger.

His fall then directly becoming the first great demon. Whether in the sky realm or the underworld, Lucifer was always at the top. Dangerous. If described, Lucifer is a beautiful black rose full of poisonous thorns.

"Stop running like a rat, because you will not be able to escape from my grasp, Lucifer. I will make sure to kill you."

"What I see, you are having great difficulty chasing me. So, how will you kill me? Galadriel, oh God who is so noble."

"You...!"

"...How can an eagle flying higher not be able to lift a crow flying lower?" Lucifer's soft and charming laughter was heard as an ending.

"HHAHHAA!!" Galadriel's thundering laughter stopped Lucifer's laughter, and made Lucifer stare at him full of suspicion. "Look behind you... Lucifer. A great gift awaits you."

Lucifer immediately turned behind him. Dozens of highest sky Gods had come and chained his comrades, and destroyed the entire underworld badly. Only the palace remained. They flew up there while looking down on him.

"Hah... I did not expect our proud angel would side with the demon race. It is very unfortunate."

"You all...!"

"Don't worry about us. You should look behind you."

Lucifer turned and, ""DIE, LUCIFER!!"

Galadriel's light attack headed quickly toward him.

Because he did not have time to retaliate let alone dodge, the arrow that attacked him managed to pierce his heart. Still having remaining strength, Lucifer turned behind him, seeing the same arrow landing on the chests of his comrades.

Lucifer's body collapsed, followed by the thud of his comrades' bodies. Galadriel approached, staring arrogantly at Lucifer from above.

"How unfortunate. You who were so perfect now look so pitiful."

'You bastard!"

"Goodbye, Lucifer."

"Galadriel...." Lucifer tried to get up, but his body collapsed again. He then stared at Galadriel full of hatred. "We will return! We will return with the King of Destruction! At that time, I will kill you!"

Galadriel saw Lucifer die. "Your soul did not die with you, what a pity." He looked up at the sky. "A new King of Darkness...? It must be that child. I can't wait for him."

"We... WE WON!"

"LONG LIVE THE SKY EMPEROR!"

"PRAISED BE THE SKY EMPEROR!"

Praises for Galadriel echoed, among the corpses of the demons that were no longer alive. So tragic.
