73 Death

"Mother?!"

The three horsemen let out surprised expressions, seeing the figure of a golden haired woman dressed in long brown robes with a crown of silver and gold on her head walking barefooted in the air as if it was solid ground.

Makima couldn't help but take a step back in fear, while Satoru squinted his eyes, seeing the newcomer arrive like a Goddess.

'Her negative energy, I've never felt anything like it..It feels...divine..'

Utilizing the power of the six eyes, he examined and observed keenly, as he made his evaluation. She wasn't like any other devil, he had met or seen before. She was on a whole new level, a while different plane, far terrifying than the darkness devil.

Glaring at the vaporized body of Yoru, the woman immediately turned towards Satoru and raised a brow.

The next moment, a pressure akin to an infinitely stacked dimensions instantly smashed into his figure, instantly bypassing his infinity, as he puked out blood.

However the next moment, he smiled and waved his hand, moving out of the plane to another, escaping the crushing aura for a moment.

"Interesting. A human being able to manipulate space to this extent...Normally I would look favorably upon you, but you shouldn't have killed Yoru.."

She spoke and waved her hand, using her divine energy to instantly shatter the dimensions Satoru had moved into, forcing him to descend back into Earth's plane.

"Mother stop!!!"

Makima instantly moved before him and shielded him with her body.

"Makima. I'm disappointed in you. He sealed darkness, killed Yoru, and almost killed Deaty had Innot intervened, and yet you still protect him?"

She looked at Makima and frowned, seeing her shield Satoru with her body, much to his annoyance.

The woman waved her hand, unleashing a massive force into outer space that shattered Satoru's unlimited Void and freed Darkness instantly, who wasted no time and descended to earth.

"Lilith...my lady.."

Upon seeing her divine figure, the darkness devil immediately bowed on his knees in reverence to her.

She was the first devil in existence, the original primordial devil and the queen of all evil, Lilith, the first.

"I love him mother...He only did everything to protect me...he's done nothing wrong.."

Makima flashed Satoru a glance and turned to Lilith before speaking.

"You are no longer fit to be my daughter.

For your transgressions, I Lilith, Queen of Evils strip you of your power and identity as a devil. You have gone against my rules Makima, and this is the price to pay."

Waving her hand, Makima's body began to levitate, and the next moment, a dark red aura burst out of her body and coalesced into a round ball which escaped into Lilith's outstretched hand.

"Shit!!!"

Satoru even with the six eyes had not been able to react to that. He instantly moved and grabbed Makima's falling figure from the sky.

He couldn't help but sigh with emotion, seeing her current frail appearance. Her hair had turned dark, her eyes changed to normal brown iris and dark pupils.

"As for you, human, for your transgression, and for staining my daughters innocence, this world is doomed. I'm going to take away everything you ever loved.."

Waving her hand, a portal materialized and a figure walked out covered in pitch black darkness and a searing flame even hotter than the sun. This was the personification of Hell itself, Hela, the Primordial devil of Hell.

"Are you okay?" Satoru held onto Makima's frail body with shaky arms, feeling the life force draining out of her body every second.

Even his reverse cursed technique was doing completely nothing to solve the situation.

"I'm sorry, I can't be here with you...I knew this was going to happen one day, but I'm glad I got to spend some time with you, my love. You taught me what emotions are, and what it meant to love and to be loved. I'm sorry I can't be here with you.."

Makima spoke with tears dripping down her eyes and kissed him gently, while Satoru continuously scanned her body, trying to heal her with everything he got, but to no avail. That attack from Lilith had ripped out her devil core, the very core of her being, and greatly injured her in both body and soul.

There was nothing he could do to save her at this point.

"Rest for a while my love, if I can't bring you back, then, we'll journey the after life together..."

Kissing her gently on the forehead, Satoru watched her pass on with a simple smile on her face, as his heart shook with sorrow, as if it was being torn apart.

Looking around him, he felt as if the world itself had lost meaning. Gently carrying her body, he walked into a different dimension and laid her in a garden, before he turned around to face his enemies.

The previously vibrant eyes had lost all its color and it took all he had to not break down right now.

He could reverse time, but with Lilith's ability to mess with space time, he knew he couldn't use that ability in her presence.

"I made a promise to her that I was going to take care of everything. Now I'm swearing on my soul, that I won't stop until every last one of you is eradicated from reality..."

Satoru clenched his fist as the endless cursed energy burst out of his body instantly.

Under the stunned watches of every human, he faced the devil Gods on his own.

However with the abilities that Lilith had just shown, would he be able to come out victorious in the battle? Previously, fighting against the darkness devil alone was a headache, now he had to fight against another primordial and the very queen of all evil.

"This world does not need to exist anymore. Destroy everything.."

Lilith signaled to the darkness devil and the hell devil behind her and took a step back.
