The meeting tinued for almost aire hour before finishing it with Zekram discussing o problem.
Who else is the devil's biggest problem but God of the Bible himself? Well, teically it is their problem, not mine since I'm sort of acquainted with the said God.
"Although I'm a hundred pert sure that the Four Satans would perish in battle against him, I'm not sure if Big G would meet the same fate, so we o create tingeo make sure he would be eliminated from the board." It was Zekram who spoke, if other devils were to hear his words, no doubt he would earn tless slurls and insults calling him bsphemous and suo sane devil talks of the Four Satans without respect, only the insane ones. In this case, Zekram could be categorized as the tter.
"Big G, we even take on that old guy?" Gideon's lips quivered as doubt starts to rise within him. Why does it feel like they're n to toue parts that aren't meant to be touched.
Normally, he joihis Fa along with his daughter because he also sees the same vision as Zekram about the future of devils, as one of the head pilrs himself, he doesn't want to see the underworld littered with devil's dead bodies, as it would meaire extermination of their race. Hence, he agreed with Zekram and risked his entire family by joining his fa.
However, Zekram is now talking about fighting Big G of the Bible himself, when their supposed purpose is just to prevent the grim future of the devils uhe rule of the Four Satans.
As for me, I didn't think much of the problem, it would be awesome to tell everyone in the room that I know God and even got a lifetime G-word pass from him, however doing so would risk suspis toward me, so I resisted the temptation.
Zekram noticed the doubt in Gideon's face, as a matter of fact, Gideon wasn't the only one as others in the room were also in doubt whether about his true purpose or simply if they could take on such as oppo with just a few of them.
Clig his tongue in discretion, he spoke again.
"I uand everyone's uainty but allow me to crify a few things first." Tapping his finger oable, he tinued.
"First of all, out of everyone in this room, I'm the one who know the most that we 't take him on, I met him myself and even lived to see the day as Lucifer and Michael fought to death while he sat on his throh indifferen his face, as if what he's watg is merely aertai on him." I see Zekram balling his fist while trying to supress his anger from leaking out, though even without it, I still feel the ominous aura surrounding him at this moment, finally giving me a small glimpse of his strength.
He's strong, strohan that red-haired Sirzechs over there. I squinted my eyes at Zekram, who thankfully, didn't notice my stare as he simply tinued.
"That's why I was not encing us to directly fight against him, but to simply weaken him before his battle with the Four Satans," Zekram stayed silent for a few seds, as if allowing everyoister the meaning of his words before tinuing.
"You see, in our world, there are only two being who stood at the pinnacle of the universe and I'm sure some of you already know who they are." His words quickly made my eyes widen in surprise.
Wait, so there are beings who are strohan God? I thought he was the stro in this world? If so, who are they? ods perhaps? Maybe it's the hology? No, they're not that strong. Greek? I don't think Zeus is even a matichael, not to mention, God himself.
I didn't dwell any longer as Zekram finally revealed the answer.
"Those are the Infinity Dragon God and the Great Red." I watched as a series of nods agreed with his statement.
Infinity Dragon and Great Red? So the former is a dragon god while the tter should be some being red, right? I mean, this being must be called the Great Red for a reason.
"Twon Gods, standing shoulder to shoulder in terms of strength." Oh so it's a dragon god too, iing.
"What are y to imply here, Zekram?" Suddenly, Zephyr, the head of the Gsya-Labos , interrupted with an aone, probably because Zekram seemed to be yapping at this point.
"Patience, Zephyr, I was on the climax of the story. You see, a few weeks ago, I discovered a being far strohan those twon Gods bined." His words immediately earned a collective gasps from the listeners as he tinued.
"Allow me to his being as the Apocalyptic Beast. I discovered this being ihe Dimensional Gap, the home of the twon Gods, I wasn't sure why but this being was in a state of hibernation, no physical touch or disturbance wake this beast up."
"At least that's what I thought at first, but when my vial of holy element that I collected from a church pope got close to the beast, its scales reacted violently, spitting fmes through its gaps, fmes that are hot enough to burn half of my face, if it wasn't for the Pheears that I brought to myself all the time, you would be seeing a Zekram with a deformed fa front of you." Zekram then pced a rge bck item enough to occupy the entire surface of the table, eveending further beyond the table's edges, making everyone slide their chairs back as to not get hit by it.
I saw myself leaning forward along with the others to get a better look at the bck material in front of us.
I feel something dangerous and weird aura emitting from this material, so much that even Sirzech's destructive demoniergy pales in parison.
Now only one question is left in everyone's minds. What is this material and why do they feel like suffog just by being near its presehankfully, Zekram soon expined.
"What you are looking at is the Apocalyptic Beast's scale, a single scale." Everyone's eyes widened in surprise, including me.
Who wouldn't be? This scale is se that not even 50 more of myself is enough to cover this scale's surface!
"Are you sure this is a single scale? It's almost twice the size of a normal dragon's cw." It was Ajuka who spoke in disbelief, as a stist, he probably 't believe such scale actually existed, simir to human stist disc beings or things they hought would exist.
"I have no reason to lie to all of you. This Apocalyptic Beast may be dangerous, but if we use this beast right, we use him to weaken Big G of the Bible. As for killing the old guy, trust me, it would take more than this beast to kill Big G." Zekram finished his words by leaning ba his chair, a fident smirk up on his face.
Not enough to kill God, huh? Hopefully that would be the case because there's no way in hell I would let God die, I don't think it would be a good idea for the old man to die and leave this world. Even though I'm a devil myself, I 't see myself trusting these people, especially Zekram, that eyes of his is enough to tell me that his ambition goes far beyond than just taking trol of the devil rad repoputing them.
I o be cautious around him.
"Weakening Big G and ily killing him." It sounds too good to be true. I hear Serafall mutter to herself.
So while everyone was occupied by the Apocalyptic Beast's scale and Zekram's 'wise' words, I took this opportunity to get a bit closer to Serafall and initiated a versation.
"How are you feeling?" I asked, gainitention.
"What do you think?" She the me. Seriously? You're on about that?
"Will you st at me if I apologize right now?"
"....Sigh. I'm not angry at you, I was just mad that the moment of surprise is now gone." She then stopped her gre and sighed, finally expining the reason for her illogical anger.
"Moment of what? What do you mean?" Although I'm thankful that she's no lry at me, but it was now repced with fusion.
"W-well, I was thinking of telling you that I'm a member of a super secret anizatio to protect the future of the devils, inviting you and effectively making me your senior or something..." Blushing heavily, Serafall looked anywhere but my eyes while tapping the tip of her index fingers against each other and as soon as she finished her words, she nervously chuckled.
Seriously? All those irrational gres are just because you didn't get to amaze me by making yourself mysterious and having me under you?
As much as I want to pin at her, however, I simply sighed. There's no point g over it, as it would just make my look immature to pin about such little things.
And besides, I 't see myself yelling at this cutie patootie of a devil. I already imagine her big and round violet eyes shimmering as tears are threatening to spill from her eyes under my 'harassment'.
"...Ehem, anyways, what do you think about Zekram's words. About God and this Apocalyptic Beast." I casually spoke, unciously fetting about ohing.
"That's weird, you didn't react when uttering Big G's name again?" Serafall squinted her eyes in suspi, as I suddenly froze upon realization of my slip-up.
"I uh....been building immunity against it, these past few weeks, its quite hard not to mention his name actally, so I might've grown immuo the zaps. I stil do feel them though, just not that painful as the first time I said it." Thanks to my lying skills, I mao vince Serafall, who despite still having lingering suspiss, didn't press any longer about it and instead, veered the topic back to the inal course herself.
"I think Zekram just wants the best for our race, so as long as it bes the future of the devils, I'll stay in this fa for his vision." I think what she's trying to say is that as long as Zekram sees his vision ing true, Serafall won't be leaving any time soon. And I 't help but to agree with her.
"Will you still stay at our home?" Out of nowhere, Serafall suddenly asks.
"Why are you asking that?" I replied with a question.
"W-well, Zekram did said that you would be the representative of the human rad, I also heard what my cousin Dimitre tried to do to you, so I hope you won't bear any grudge against us just because of my cousin." Looking at her, bowing her head out of shame, I finally couldn't resist myself from patting her head as I replied.
"I don't actually mind about your cousin and his wrongdoings, you know what they say, 'A Lio himself with the opinions of the sheep'." Deliberately ign her heavy blush, I gave her a o pat before shifting my attention to someone approag us.
"Ajuka." I nodded my head.
"Chamber, if you don't mind, but we have a private discussion after this meeting. This involves quite a bit about your question to me back then." I sense how he held himself back from revealing more, however this was enough for me to know what he was talking about.
The possibility of turning a human turned devil back to his inal race, which is human. Now I see why he held this information back, I don't think Zekram would stand idle if he hears about turning devils baans.
I guess I'll be having a te night talk with the devil's most outstanding stist.
