The Fall

"After slaughtering our people, you dare to show yourself here." an enraged roar sounded from the 7 demons surrounding Sora, all of them with levels at 175. Sora smiled slightly while looking at all 7 lords of sins,

"when an army comes to kill me, was I to give them tee?" Sora asked with a smile, making the demon who let out the roar, Wrath, face to turn red with rage,... well, it was already red, it just began glowing red from his rage.

Wrath was a white-haired demon with red skin, he had 6 arms, and all over his body lines running through it. when enraged, one could see something within those lines, a red glow almost like lava was under his flash

"you're nothing more than a puppet when a puppet is no..." Before wrath could continue, Sora cut him off,

"to think so many powerful demons are afraid of a little puppet. but enough of me, that's not important right now, I came to talk. Depending on this talk goes, it would depend on whether or not the demons are slaughtered, or I rule over you all." Sora said calmly as the ground under him raised, turning into a seat which he sat down upon

Wrath was enraged and wanted to rush forward, but he stopped Greed, the smartest of the 7 lords of sins, and also the most human looking of the group. He was a fat man, with fox-like whiskers.

"Well, what by chance do you want to talk about?" He asked while the others stopped wrath from lashing out, Wrath was enraged and simply stumped his foot and walked away,

"your fears are understandable, being 75% human, my human nature could have a great impact on the demons. But even if your worries are not misplaced, are you all saying there is someone out there better than me? I have the growth speed of humans, just look at me now, already forcing all of you to stand before me. in the next few years, I will have you all kneeling to me." Sora said with a smile, making the 6 demons' eyes narrow at his words,

"what you say might be true, but the risk still doesn't out weight the drawbacks," Greed said with narrowed eyes, Sora smiled slightly as he walked up to greed, before turning towards the Lod Of Pride, a blowing man whose appearance couldn't be seen

Sora walked up to him, sadly the guy was taller than Sora, making Sora have to look up towards while, while he simply looked down, like looking down upon an ant.

"I'm not someone to enrage, but I don't go around seeking trouble for no reason, so to avoid trouble, let's make things simple... Kneel to your new Demon Lord." Sora said with a gentle smile, although pride couldn't be seen, Sora could tell his eyes were narrowing to a dangerous level. all of their aura locked upon Sora, who didn't move an inch as he looked at Pride.

"I will count to 3 at which point, the number of demons shall drop until all of you kneel. I will not stop until every single demon kneels." Sora said with the same smile,

"where's your real body..." The Lord of Sloth asked with a bad feeling, at her words, everyone turned to look at her in confusion. Sloth was a child-like little girl, hugging a toy bear that floated her up.

"3." Sora began counting while calmly looking at Pride, everyone turned back to him, while Sloth explained that the Sora before them was a thought projection, the real Sora was somewhere else. this stunned them for some time, before their heart grew heavily, for the past few days they have been searching for Sora and knew all of his actions, if he was loose within the demon's realm... that was bad news for them. millions could die if he was not joking, and by the look in his eyes, he was dead serious

"2," Sora said calmly, the 7 of them were panicking slightly, Sora could make serious damage to their race, and from what they knew, he could teleport. so, at that point, what could they do to Sora if he wants to run? He was a one-man army, who can come and leave as he wishes and who was growing at a crazy fast speed,

Countless thoughts ran through them all, they couldn't allow the demon race which just suffered a blow against the gods a few thoughts years to suffer another blow. Greed looked at Sora with a smile before he kneeled.

"We have no other option but to kneel. You have the strength capable of pushing us to such a degree while so young. with you being immortal... I wish to see what more you have in store for the demons. Of course, prove a trashy king, we would fight you to the death." Greed said with a smile, everyone gritted their teeth, but they followed Greed and kneeled.

"I like talking to smart people, forget waiting for the demon king to be reborn, the gods would be slaughtered within the next 5 years, follow me. I will go over my plan for the next 5 years, and it starts with me becoming the hero." Sora said with a smile as he walked off toward the demon city,

"Damn it, why must they be reasonable." Sora who was on a mountain far away kicked a rock in annoyance, after that last battle, he reached level 105. he was now capable of getting shadow magic, but he needed to finish the current quest before getting the next ones and after a few quests are completed, Sora would have the magic to reshape reality as he wishes,

He only wanted to reach level 120 or so, but that can't be held, with his current level, he could return and resummon all his minions, they would be around level 60 at least, He also needed to make thought protection to lord the countless new spells which required him to have a high level before learning, quest free spells.

with a flash, Sora appeared within the fairy king forest, where the army of elves and fairies instantly turned tier weapons towards him, but they froze upon seeing it was Sora. they were stunned for a moment, but before they could say anything, a woman rushed into Sora's hands, tunning Sora for a moment before he hugged her.

"you're such a demon ass, how could you enter the demon realm like that?" Irene said softly, Irene smiled slightly, not knowing what to say to her words.

"Don't worry, they only thought I was the hero or something, no Biggy," Sora said with a smile, Irene hug tightened at Sora's words, Sora sighed softly, he never knew Irene to be so emotional.

"let's stop adventuring for a moment and train... I hate not being of any use to my current strength. one year." Irene said softly, Sora nodded slightly, not thinking too much of it, he too would need time to master these new spells, these higher level spells were far harder than those lower ranking spells. remember Sora was not that talented, so it would be hard for him.

if he could enchant all of his spells into other schools, then he wouldn't really need the armor as much, so it was time to train. and the fairies and elves were happily going to welcome them.

time passed, and later that night, Irene was sitting in her room with her legs crossed. she soon felt a stillness within the air, as if the world had stopped. opening her eyes, She saw that there were 3 people in black hoodies standing around her, forming a triangle with her in the middle.

"what do you want with me?" Irene asked with a frown, the 3 of them couldn't be seen, be it their face, hands, or feet, it was covered by the hoodie.

"the demon lord sits upon the throne, war, chaos, death, tears, sacrifice, and heartbreak await you hero." one of the said, stunning Irene slightly.

"you would have 2 choices to pick, would you abandon this world for your feeling, or would you betray that hold close to you for the sake of the universe?" another of the 3 said in a deep voice, stunning Irene to the point she stood up.

"your fate is that to pity, you are about to reach the point where your world shatters. it shall start with the seed." the last of the 3 said as they all backed away from Irene, disappearing into the shadows.

"Who is the demon Lord? what do I need to do to save the world?" Irene yelled at them,

"what you seek isn't far, the clues have been laid out for you to see, open your eyes. time is running out. you can't save this world, only slow it down." all 3 of them said, leaving Irene standing there while she went through her memories, trying to find any clue of who could be the demon lord.

but no one fit the picture of a demon lord, no one went through seeking death and destruction, she had never even seen a demon until yesterday... but what if the demon isn't a demon? but that made things harder,

Demon lords were bloodthirsty monsters who went around seeking to end the gods and their creations. Sora was easily off the list, he was more of a Hero than her. he goes out of his way to help others, meanwhile... she hasn't done any hero work.

after being unable to think of anyone, she heard a knock coming from the door, walking over to the door, she saw two elf twins waiting for her.

"our master asked to meet you," the elf twin said with a cute smile, Irene nodded slightly and followed the two. she looked at the two and couldn't help but be confused, she hasn't seen these two before, but then again she only been here for less than 2 days,

Soon, she arrived at the Moon elf palace, where she was greeted by a few females, the twins brought her to the Moon elf leader room, who was sitting there waiting for her. Irene was confused as to why one of the 3 highest-ranking elves wanted to see her, but she paid her respect while watching the two twins play with some toys.

".. Princess Irene, I heard about the party you are putting together. if it's not too much, I would like to join." She said emotionless, stunning Irene, but she didn't think twice as she nodded quickly. she has been thinking of which elf should join them, but to think they went out of their way and asked

"... wait, if I may ask, why do you wish to join?" Irene asked with a slight frown, the Moon elf looked at the two twin elves, they were only kids, but through her emotionless eyes, Irene could see the envy filling her eyes.

"you might be curious as to why clouds follow me everywhere I go." She said softly, to which Irene nodded slightly,

"The reason the elves and gods are not on good terms is because of me, back then a god almost had his way with me. but the tree of life saved me, from then, a spell has been cast upon me, no longer would the sky be able to see me. this was to keep me away from him..." She said softly, stunning Irene who went quiet, she didn't know what to say.

"Unlike many elves, I rarely stepped out, and when I do it's rare. I might be the leader, but I'm more like a prisoner than anything else. I want to leave the cage and see the outside world..." She said softly, stunning Irene.

"but is it not dangerous for you to leave?" Irene asked in worry, she no longer wanted her to come if she was at high risk of being attacked.

"don't worry, the gods are injured. only lesser gods have the energy to watch this world. by the looks of things, Sora can handle a lesser God. with him... I can be... safe." She said in a soft voice, Irene went quiet for a moment, she didn't expect Sora to be so powerful, but she nodded in the end

"then you're welcome to the team," Irene said softly, the elf nodded slightly, before waving over to the two twins.

"it's time you two return to the hands you were made for." She said softly, the two twins looked at her slightly unwilling, but they nodded in the end. the elf pulled out a golden key and went on to close the gate, sending the two celestial spirits away, before she canceled the contract.

"a few years ago, I killed a human with the key. a wizard came to get the key as it belongs within humans hands, but he allowed me to keep the key in the end seeing the two spirits didn't want to leave me." She said softly while rubbing the key.

"these two have been the only way for me to know about the outside world, but they were slowly killing me the more I summoned them. I only have a few years before my death, I want to use that time to use the remaining of my life to see the world," She said as she handed the key to Irene,

"Then welcome to the team," Irene said softly, and so a new team member joined the party, meanwhile, while all of this was happening, the Oceanic Overlord Empire was in chaos.

"Brandon, surrender or die." 15 Saints along with 20 dragons stood before the badly injured group of humans within the kingdom.

"with the space locked, you can't summon a thing. your bodies are weak, and magic is unable to affect us thanks to my Reflector magic. lastly, you can't message your summoner for help. we perfectly counter " a black-haired saint said coldly, Brandon's face was dark, they had perfectly countered anything they could do, but how? how did they know their skill sets too well?

"you still don't know?" a charming voice sounded behind them, making them turn around to find Sarah, and a few other ladies who Sora saved walking towards them. these ladies have become some of Sora's most trusted people, indeed, if they betrayed Sora and linked news to other kingdoms... this could happen.

"why?" Brandon asked in shock, for what he knew, Sora treated these ladies well, one could say he spoiled them. since Sora valued loyalty above others, he saw them be more important than others.

"Why? We sacrificed everything for him, put him first in life... yet he picks that stupid little bitch over me?" Sarah's eyes burned with jealousy, many didn't know, and Iris never told. but she was always the one bully turn to bully. this was even more so when she got closer to Sora,

How could you feel if the woman you bullied and hated, was chosen by the person you valued most? a person you saw to be pure, not caring for lust or anything of the king. but up and joins a party of ladies and leave. they wanted to make Sora pay for this betrayer, and bringing down his kingdom was the first step.

of course, not all the females were like this, some of them tried to fight back, but they were either locked up or killed. now, Brandon and the other summons lay here, they wouldn't weaken them too much or else Sora could sense them, they would kill them, or else Sora could sense them.

they would torture information out of them before they move to set up a trap for Sora. the other kingdom was scared of Sora. so many of them, the 2nd rank, 5th rank, and others joined hands to find a way to kill Sora.

when Sarah informed them of Sora leaving, and how they could bring down this kingdom, they acted and went on to attack. now, they would torture them, some would even take over Brandon and the other's bodies. the end goal for all of this was to kill Sora. his power was too much of a danger to their kingdom.

they had 5 years, but they should act fast as they don't know when Sora would randomly contact these summons to check up on things.,
