Seth

"If the death of only two of us was enough to power us up to defeat you already, it seems that we are destined to be sorely disappointed!" Wrath said in a mocking tone.

(Real World)

"Huh? What the hell happened here?!" Seth shouted out in shock. Though he cared little, he was still shocked to see rivers upon rivers of blood in the capital of a kingdom. The humans who were surrounding 'him' also had shock written clear on their faces.

As humans of the Demonic Cult clan, they had grown accustomed to gruesome scenes, but this had taken such experience down the drain as this was on a different level. Hell, even in the Demonic Cult, they would not necessarily meet someone who can be this ruthless.

Gazing at the rivers of blood, Seth felt something prickling in his chest. He felt as if he would fall for the being who was the cause of this. She, though hidden, had a rather sadistic side that at some point in time would get out of hand, maybe even comparable to Saber.

Quickly though, (s)he hid her red cheeks as if she got too emotional and aroused, there was a chance that her shapeshifting ability would be undone.

Anyway, the group of five was about to head back to the forest, so that they could go visit the still intact cities and hope to find humans who were aware of the being that caused this, but, just as they were about to turn around, and leave, they sensed the auras of a group of a dozen humans who were quickly approaching this city.

Knowing full well that if they were to begin flying back to the forest now, the people approaching would still see and then go on to think that this shocking massacre was the cause of the Demonic Cult, so with this in mind, Seth and 'his' group of five then began to instead approach the incoming group.

Soon after, the group reached as Seth instantly made them out to be cultivators of the Heavenly Body Sect. 'He' couldn't help but click his tongue n annoyance as he knew whenever Demonic Cult members and Heavenly Body Sect members met, there was bound to be havoc.

"Y-you...despicable Demons!!"

And, as if to prove that 'his' way of thinking was right, as soon as the members of the Heavenly Body Sect observed their surroundings, and more importantly, the city down below which was reeking with the smell of blood, they instantly felt wrath as they 'knew' that only the members of the Demonic Cult would be so vicious to massacre millions of children and infants.

"No matter what, you people would never leave here alive!" A Heavenly Body Sect member who seemed to be the leader of this group of disciples shouted as his aura flared, making it obvious that similar to the King of this kingdom, he also was a Great Mortal!!

Seth could only lament the unfairness of the world since she felt the auras of those behind her also flare. There wasn't going to be any sort of peace, but what one must know is the fact that she did not complain openly since she instead loved the fact that a fight was about to happen.

'With this, even if some members of the Demon Cult are killed by the members of the Heavenly Body Sect, no one would see any flaws in this cove-up." She thought. Soon after, her transformation seemingly disappeared as her true form appeared in the world, and the shocked eyes of everyone present.

"Be proud. I shall use all of my techniques to give you people a quick death." She said in a sweet and sadistic tone as her figure disappeared with a silvery staff in her hand. Shockingly, before anyone could even react, the head of one of the Heavenly Body Sect members was blasted into smithereens!!

(Two Hours Later)

Standing in front of a flight of stairs was the body of male Seth as 'he' bowed his head in the direction of the demon king of the Demonic Cult. With his head bowed respectfully, Seth then went on to say,

"Master, it seems that we are in a problematic situation. When my group was investigating the cause of the disappearance of life in two cities, we met with a troubling situation, not only were my comrades killed by those despicable Heavenly Body Sect people, but before I killed them, they were able to send a message toward the Heavenly Body Sect HQ."

'He' said. Pausing in between so that 'his' master could process the information before he then continued.

"I expect that war is inevitable. Not only that, but this might just be the final world war. I am truly sorry master, it was all my fault, and now our Demonic Cult may be placed in a perilous situation." Seth said as tears fell from his eyes.

Knowing that ever since three years ago when his disciple mysteriously made his appearance in the Demonic Cult that he was overly emotional, the demonic king did not want his disciple to feel bad and blame himself, so he then said.

"Do not worry my disciple, not only is war necessary for my plans to be enacted, but even if it wasn't, our strength has reached a level that we fear no one in this world." He said with an aura of clear pride and arrogance leaking out of his body.

Hearing his words, Seth could only wickedly snicker in her head as she then said, "But master, what about the Sword Art Sect. Would they not intervene when we are dominating the war against the righteous faction?!"

Right after Seth said those words, the demon king then followed up. "Hahaha, do not worry about them, not only are they not a problem since our strength is unequal, but even if we were of equal strength to them, the fact that they are now weakened would set us apart from them!!" He said causing Seth to quizzically ask.

"What do you mean they are weakened?" Seth asked with a fake smirk plastered on her face. Instead, deep in her head, she did not want the Sword Art Sect to be harmed, after all, if Saber was to be injured, wouldn't all of her planning to rise through the ranks of the Demonic Cult be useless.

One must know that if Saber is dead that likely means that her one-way ticket to supremacy is now easily attainable. The black ring would be ownerless, and all of her work to have a backing since she did not have the black ring, would then be proven useless...

"Haha, yes they are weakened. And, do you know what the best part was about it?" The demonic king asked with clear happiness. Seeing his disciple's annoyed expression though, the demon king knew that he was taking too long to reveal the beautiful scene that played out in the Sword Art Sect, so without further ado, his voice loudly resounded in the palace.

"Are you not going to appear honey?!"

Instantly, a crack in space suddenly formed next to Seth. Soon after, an extreme beauty that was almost fairy-like appeared in the throne room. She had night-black hair and long eyelashes. Her skin was a creamy white and tender-looking as anyone would realize that she was the elder of the seventh peak in the Sword Art Sect, and most importantly, the master of Jayden and the others!!
