Then, I pulled the Snake of Ophis out of his pocket and showed it to everyone, slowly explaining, "Heh~ The Snake of Ophis. You're also a member of the [Khaos Brigade], aren't you?" "!!!!" "What?! Joined the [Khaos Brigade]!" "Is this the snake of the Infinite Dragon God?!" "Bastard, Diodora Astaroth! As the successor to the House of Astaroth, you actually colluded with the [Khaos Brigade]!" "Are you trying to betray the Devils?!" "..." After seeing the item in my hand, Rias, Sairaorg, and all the Devils present were enraged. They had thought Diodora was just a despicable person, but they hadn't expected him to join a terrorist group like the [Khaos Brigade] and even act as an inside agent for their attacks. Everyone stared at Diodora with gloomy eyes filled with killing intent, as if looking at a dead man. Immediately after, I grabbed Diodora's neck with one hand, and black flames instantly crawled over his entire body. What followed were piercing screams, but he still stubbornly threatened me. "Bastard... I am a blood relative of Maou Beelzebub and the next head of the House of Astaroth! You can't kill me!" To this, Rias, Sairaorg, and the other Devils watched coldly, unmoved, quietly observing Diodora being killed. 'Blood relative of Maou Beelzebub or not—even if you were the Maou himself, betraying the Devils would still warrant the death penalty.' As the black flames continued to burn, Diodora was reduced to ashes, completely disappearing from this world. As for Diodora, I could only describe him as utterly useless—He didn't even warrant a system task! "Although this is your Devils' affair, this guy had a significant grudge with me, So, I apologize," I said, flicking my hand and walking across the banquet hall towards Rias and Sairaorg with a smile. ——— "Diodora probably would have marked spatial nodes to launch attacks on the Underworld later. So, I guess I did a good deed!" Hearing this, Rias, Sairaorg, and the others—who knew my true strength—twitched their lips and rolled their eyes at me. Although I had my back to them, I could clearly feel countless gazes focused on me. And murmurs came from behind him. "Is this guy really human? Isn't he too abnormal?!" "Yeah! Zephyrdor and Diodora were both instantly defeated!" "I remember him! He's Lady Rias's fiancé!" "What?! Could he be the human who defeated the Red Dragon Emperor and the White Dragon Emperor?!" "Hiss... Is this guy a monster?!" As they spoke, the new generation of Devils looked at me with faces full of admiration. Hearing the Devils' discussions, my heart remained exceptionally calm. After all, I knew very well—this was a world where the strong preyed on the weak. Strength was everything. Especially for Devils—who worshipped power—great strength naturally earned their respect and admiration. ——— However, after such an incident occurred, the Devil Higher-ups quickly sent people to handle the aftermath. Not long after, Sirzechs's Queen arrived at the banquet hall and announced the official start of the Underworld Conference. She led me and the new generation of Devils to the Underworld's main hall. At the very top of the hall sat the Four Great Maous of the Underworld—Sirzechs Lucifer, Serafall Leviathan, Ajuka Beelzebub, and Falbium Asmodeus. Below them were the Devil Higher-ups, such as the Devil Elders, the heads of the Devil noble families, and other prominent Devils. Immediately, Evelyn respectfully said to me, "Lord Kyoya, your seat is up there. Please follow me!" Hearing this, I looked indifferent and followed Evelyn to the upper part of the hall. Seeing a throne, I couldn't help but be slightly surprised. After a moment of surprise, I still sat down beside the Four Great Maous and asked doubtfully, "Is this alright? After all, I'm just a guest in the Underworld!" "Kyoya, your status is even higher than ours! And you've helped us immensely," Sirzechs replied with a smile. "Indeed, thanks to you, that traitor Diodora has been dealt with—otherwise, he could have become a major problem!" Maou Ajuka Beelzebub looked at me, expressing his gratitude. "Kyoya, it's a pleasure to meet you for the first time. I am Falbium..." Maou Falbium Asmodeus greeted me with a chuckle. Serafall Leviathan, on the other hand, glanced at me nervously, seemingly afraid to meet my gaze. Because of our previous encounter, where she had left abruptly, she was afraid I would use this opportunity to tease her again. Towards the Maous, I smiled and responded one by one, then glanced at Serafall, revealing a mischievous grin. Seeing my expression, Serafall quickly turned her head away, looking flustered. Witnessing this scene, I was taken aback. It seemed I had teased her too much back then. I smiled and shook my head. ——— When Sairaorg saw me sitting alongside the Maous, his eyes widened abruptly, filled with disbelief. "Wh-what's going on?!" Seeing Sairaorg dumbfounded, Rias, Sona, and the others covered their mouths and chuckled softly. It wasn't just Sairaorg and Seekvaira Agares among the new generation of Devils. Even some of the higher-ranking Devils who didn't know the situation were stunned to see me. Remember, just moments ago, I had beaten Zephyrdor and killed Diodora, yet now I was laughing and chatting with the Four Great Maous. Didn't that mean my status was comparable to a Maou, possibly even higher?! Thinking of this, they couldn't help but feel awe towards me, while also wondering about my true identity. ——— The subsequent developments were pretty much the same as I remembered from the original story. The Devil higher-ups used their linguistic artistry, feeding them motivational speeches, praising them as the new generation of Devils, the future of the Devils, and so on... Finally, Sirzechs and the other Maous began asking about their dreams. When Sairaorg directly stated his dream of becoming a Maou, just like in the original story, it drew ridicule from many Devils, but he didn't care at all. Sona also stated her dream: to establish a Devil school without class distinctions. However, unlike in the original story, the Devil nobles didn't dare mock her casually. After all, through Sirzechs, they knew my true identity. Any careless remark could bring disaster. As for Rias, her dream was naturally to become an outstanding head of the Gremory family—exactly the same as in the original story. ❁❁❁❁ ~ 18 Advanced Chapters Available on Patreon! https://p-atreon.com/dragonnx (Just remove the hyphen to access Patreon normally.)
