The One Who Kneels

'Holy shit i didn't expect that to actually work.' Zafrey thought while standing up from his prone position.

'Kiritsugu's Chrono Rose Noble Phantasm is nothing to scoff as something mediocre, if he wasn't tricked by my trap i'm 100% sure that i would be six feet under right about now, even with my op abilities like Gate of Babylon, Instant kill skill, and my stats advantage.'

*Hais*

"I can't even nuke this place until another year..."

"And i just burned down my apartment too..."

"This is already giving me a head ache."

Taking his phone from his pocket Zafrey checked the time and looked at the full moon that is now currently showering the construction building with it's moonlight.

'I really need to learn how to use my abilities, effectively if I want to survive in the future.' Zafrey worriedly thought while walking out of the destroyed construction site.

Zafrey now walking in the streets of fuyuki city, with his hands in his pocket wondering around the place with a dull look on his face.

Watching the city blooming in life, Zafrey just observed the people ranging from children, friends, colleague, families and even pets.

'I have the power to destroy the earth 100 times over, and yet when i look at these people having their separate lives and aspirations... it feels nostalgic some how.' Zafrey thought of his past life before continuing to look for a new hotel to stay in.

*Ding*

*The Death Devil wishes to be summoned by the User*

Hearing the notification, in his the state of melancholy, Zafrey was surprised that the death devil wants to be actually summoned right here, right now.

*Would like to agree?*

*Hais*

'why would i care anymore about Alaya and Gaia?, i just survived a near death experience, If the death devil want to kills me then so be it.'

Pressing the yes button on the system prompt a sudden door appeared on top of the city and furiously opened, the inside of the door was nothing but darkness, before dropping a black gooey substance towards the city.

Landing in front of Zafrey, the gooey substance started to take a more humane shape, it's body is made up of many human bodies, with two bodies acting as his legs and four other human bodies acting as his torso, each having a unique face the one immediately below the neck has no eyes, nose and a vertical mouth, the second head has open eyes and a stitched mouth, the third one has no nose, an open mouth and stitched eyes, and the fourth one has no eyes and a somber expression. Its head akin to that of a pterodactyl with curved horns. The first human body has its arms stretching outwards holding what seems to be a cape of darkness.

Seeing this figure, Zafrey wasn't unfazed and looked the being standing now in front of him

But however the residence of the city was able to witness the monstrosity that dropped out down into the sky, and instinctively ran as fast as they can the moment they were able to witness the death devil.

"AHHH! A MONSTER!!!"

"RUN, MIYUKI!"

Seeing the pedestrians ran away in fear of the sight of a monster that was beyond human understanding, Zafrey with his dull eyes looked at the death devil with no fear in his soul and mind.

Finally being summoned by his master the death devil looked at the person in front of him with one of the human heads with it's eyes fully opened.

"Uh'eog Azrael" saying these words the death devil kneeled in front him, with his head bowing down towards the pavement.

Looking at the literal personification of death and darkness bowing down and kneeling in front of him Zafrey almost had no words to say to himself right now.

"Stand up"

Hearing Zafrey's words, the death devil followed his orders and stood fully straight waiting for his instructions.

'The only thing i was able to understand from what this guy said is just Azrael, the angel of death, in the story of the bible right when God created death, Death kneeled down towards Azrael, making him the one who chooses which person lives or dies.'

"What is your purpose of being summoned here?" Zafrey monotonely said to the death devil with his lifeless eyes.

"Uh'eog ahh ymg' ah nafl ph'nglui ymg' mgephaiagl ye'bthnk?"

'Huh?, I can't understand what it is saying, Mia is their something wrong with the universal translation?' Zafrey thought while asking the system if their is any errors.

*Currently downloading (New Language Pack: Devil's Tongue)*

Facepalming himself in irritation, Zafrey waited for the system to finish downloading the Language pack before he could speak to the death devil.

*Ding*

*Download Complete!*

Taking a deep breath and sighing, Zafrey asked the death devil the question all over again.

"Why are you here, Death Devil?"

"Master Azrael, I'm mearly answering your summons." The Death devil replied with a tone of respect, while purposefully lowering his head towards Zafrey.

'He thinks I'm Azrael?!' Zafrey surprisingly thought, before thinking of a way he can use his new powerful summon.

"Death devil, I want you to stay in the shadows for now and kill any dangerous individuals that have the intention of harming me" Zafrey ordered the Death devil.

*New Hostile Targets have been found within the vicinity of the User*

"Oh would you look at that, it seems like we have guests that personally require our assistance sending to hell."

Hearing that Alaya and Gaia already noticed the existence of the Death devil, Zafrey smiled creepily with his teeth showing.

"Yes, Master."

Using his authority as the death and darkness devil, It started to shroud the entire fuyuki city in pure darkness, no light shall ever exist in its domain and no life shall ever see the light of day.

The pedestrians that was close to the Death devil was the first to experience what it's like to live in the world without any light.

'Hmm, so this is what it's like to live in the dark..., quite interesting' Zafrey thought while looking at the now turned abyssal surroundings.

"This reminds me so much of the white paradise but instead, its just darkness everywhere, i can't even see my hands" Zafrey fearlessly said to himself while now sitting on the floor of what he presumes to be the domain of the death devil.

'Welp, it's not like i got anything better to do than just wait for him to kill the grand servants, sadly i can't even see the fight even if i wanted too.'

Taking a sit in a lotus position, Zafrey closed his eyes and mediated his mind to fully control the creation magic he just learned a couple hours ago.

Using his meditative state, Zafrey started to concentrate his mana on a single point on his right palm.

Making a mental image of the item he was trying to create, Zafrey poured more mana towards his right palm and willed the construction of the item, but was his mental image was not clear enough to fully bring it to reality.

*Plop*

Hearing a sound of liquid clay hitting the floor, Zafrey raised an eyebrow with eyes closed and continued to meditate again.

*Plop*

*Plop*

*Plop*

.

.

.

Everytime Zafrey tried to make an item through the use of creation magic it always resulted in the same sound of clay hitting the floor.

'Let start something simple instead, maybe the reason I always get the same results is because I'm trying to make something complex without understanding the fundamental structure and physical make up of item that I'm trying to create.' Zafrey theorized, before concentrating more on the creating the one of the most simplest physical structure know to man.

'H2O or commonly know as "Water" the chemical composition of water contains one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms, connected through the process covalent bonds. The hydrogen atoms are attached to the oxygen atom at an angle of 104.45°, as such the physical components of H2O is but a transparent, tasteless, odorless liquid, it is said that water is the building blocks of life in the universe...'

Stating all of the things he knows about the fundamental knowledge of H2O from his time in highschool chemistry, Zafrey poured mana towards his right palm again, with the physical structures in his mind.

*Drip..*

*Drip.*

Hearing the sound, Zafrey smiled in anticipation, before continuing his efforts of creating different elements in the dark.

____________________________________________

In another part of the Death devil's domain, lies seven silhouettes are looking at their current predicament.

A female white haired magician looked at the darkness that was enveloping them and jokingly asked one of her colleagues in arms

"I can't see anything, did the sun just suddenly take a nap or something?"

"Thou seeks the light of day."

Holding her staff and raising up into the sky the white haired Female tried to cast an illumination spell but her staff didn't even light up one bit.

"Booo, my illumination magic doesn't even work here." the female magician begrudgingly said, while cautiously looking at abyss and raising her eyebrows.

Hearing that a grand caster couldn't use her illumination magic, the group of seven cautiously looked at the darkness.

"H' ah yar llll ymg' nilgh'ri l' meet ymg' n'gha." the death devil coldly said in it's devil tongue and curiously observed the grand servants.

"Ymg' ahornah mgep cheated ya, mgng Y' ahor ah ehye l' ymg' tharanak mgleth n'gha."

Hearing the weird in coherent voice within the darkness the grands servants tightened their resolve and waited for the beast to show them selves.

*Croak*

With a sound of a frog croaking in absolute darkness the surroundings around the grand servants began to twist and change in an uncanny manner.

In a blink of an eye the grands servants of the counter force was now greeted with grassy plain stretching for what looks like infinitely and on the skies are millions upon millions of different doors floating like a side of waves.

"This is not a reality marble..." the white haired magician stated while trying to have a connection to counter force

"Caster, are we dealing with a beast of humanity?" A tall macho man holding a club on his left and a bow on his right hand asked caster who their opponent will be.

"I don't know..." the female magician said while in her thinking pose.

*Jingle*

through sound of a jingle bell the death devil rushed at the group in a speed that not even the grand class servants can't perceive resulting in some of their limbs being ripped apart is quick succession.

Seeing the enemy they were sent to to take care off, the seven grand servants cautiously looked at the physical manifestation of death in front of them and shivered in thought.

"Thine head shall be mine." the grand assassin was one of the few servants who was able to not get their arms ripped apart and hastely charged at the death devil with his sword in hand.

The other six servants were still trying to understand what happened just moments ago, seeing that assassin was the first to charge the female mage shouted her noble phantasm.

"The Forever-Unsealed Utopia: Hope of Avalon!"

Summoning a part of Avalon unto the wretched grass plains the female mage was able to restore her arms like it wasn't ripped apart just moments ago.

The grand servants seeing their limbs being fully restored join assassin in vanquishing the death devil.

Seeing the grand servants charge at him the death devil conjured a jet black blade of darkness with bells attached to it's hilt on his hand and began swiftly fighting assassin with it.

*Cling*

*Rip*

*Clang*

*Rip..*

Using his speed to his advantage the death devil was able to heavily injure assassin in the course of ten seconds, stabbing assassin's body with sword, the bell of the hilt of the sword and ringed

*Ring*

The moment the bell ringed assassin's body ruptured and contorted making the grand servants widen in surprise.

Taking out the sword from the body of the grand assassin, the death devil then rushed towards the remaining individuals that require his aid

"Y''m n'gha ng Y' ymg' ephaimgulnah l' epshuggog" In it's devil tongue the Death devil inquired the six remaining grand servants of their inevitable demise.
