CH. 4: The Greatest Devil

A rotten environment with a crimson sun in the red sky. Akira looked around and saw many people, the latter only shared a few physical characteristics compared to humans. Their shape was humanoid, but the horns on their heads and the tails coming out of their back made them look monstrous, as well as that eye—red like scarlet flowers that glowed from bloodlust and desire to kill.

"Demons... So this is the Underworld..." Akira said in amazement. It was fascinating to be able to cross to another world, especially one filled with so many powerful individuals.

Akira was looking forward to meeting up with the arch-demons and especially the primordials who earned a place in his heart back in his past life. Primordial Demons held the position of progenitors who rained on the Underworld like Kings and Queens, apart from Guy Crimson who was already having his fun against Rudra or Michael for LN readers.

Suddenly, one demon started roaring in anger as he stared at Akira. The creature was a medium-ranked demon with moderate power, his mind was completely corrupted by evil, having mostly just instincts left that were confused by Akira's sudden apparition.

The demon, angered even more by god knows what, sprinted towards Akira, with his sharp fangs out and ready to slash him into pieces.

Akira saw the demon running at him and he knew it wasn't for a greeting. Akira rose his hand and enveloped the edges of his limb in powerful nothingness magic.

When the demon got close enough, Akira slashed his hand vertically across the demon, this caused the devilish creature to be cut into two perfectly sliced pieces with blood and insides splattering around.

Akira glanced at the butchered body of the demon, "Huh... I don't feel anything, normally I'd be disgusted by such a scene or scared of committing murder... But it was kinda fun, slicing a lowlife..."

(Told you, Master! Welcome to Hell~!) Alice said playfully.

Seeing this gory scene, the Low-ranked demons got scared and started running away, while the medium and high-ranked got on battle stance, ready to end this threat that was Akira.

Hundreds if not thousands of demons ran toward Akira with different weapons such as blades, sharp claws, etc...

"This might prove to be a good way to test my base limits" Akira mumbled.

Akira grabbed the sliced-up body of the demon he just killed and then stared at it for a few seconds. He then closed his eyes and collected all the necessary information from [Primordial Records] to pull out his little trick. Thousands of hidden and forbidden knowledge ran through his mind in less than a millisecond.

Having finished, he reopened his eyes and then lifted his hand, causing all the lost blood of his victim to coagulate in his hand and form a new weapon exclusive to him only, The <Sanguinary Blade>.

Akira threw the dead body then familiarized with this sword, "Come at me" He said confidently.

Demon by demon he sliced them like a butcher with his newfound sword. The <Sanguinary Blade> proved to be an extremely powerful sword, the more he got excited the hotter the blood would become and the stronger the sword would get.

Having acquired all knowledge about the existence and non-existing swordsmen's ship, Akira found no difficulty in handling the hordes of demons coming at him endlessly, slashing one into two pieces before turning around and killing the other.

This lasted for more than an hour until the situation finally calmed down, with Akira's face covered in a few droplets of blood but still emotionless. The last demon jumped at him, but Akira simply caught his head and crushed the skull with bare force killing him instantly before throwing him.

"Finally over..." He said. Akira glanced below him to see that he was standing on a pile of dead devils. A mountain of corpses, he thought he only fought against high and medium demons but some were arch-devils and top-tier devils that thought they could stand a chance against this Devil.

Akira jumped from the pile of demons to the ground, five meters worth of dead devils.

"Oh well, that was a good warm-up I guess" Akira let go of the <Sanguinary Blade> which became a puddle of blood after falling on the ground. He had already learned the technique and was able to make as many <Sanguinary Blades> as he wanted now.

Still, he didn't hear or see about any primordial demon. But now that he's got so many dead bodies, he could roll the dice and summon them using those corpses as a reward. He was very confident that the type of corpse did not matter, there was a total of 70'000 deceased demons here and his luck was 100% so why not give it a shot?

" (Make four primordial demon seals appear in front of me) " Akira narrated.

[[ " (...) " Means that Akira uses [Creation] ]]

Four demon rituals appeared in front of Akira, each in a different color corresponding to a different nobility. White, Black, Purple, and Yellow.

"Rise my demons, accept these corpses as gifts, and come to your new Lord" Akira spoke with a serious tone.

The demon seals started glowing in different colors, filling up with intense magic before exploding in a burst of magic.

The smoke dissipated with a single swing of Akira's hand.

Four black silhouettes appeared in front of him. Blacked-out figures with menacing eyes stared at Akira before becoming visible to him.

"H-Heeh?! Wh-What the fuck are you three doing here?!" The blonde demon called Jaune said. She's 173cm in height with long blonde hair and blue eyes that made her look European. She had the attitude of a high school delinquent.

Though the unmistakable curves on her chest and butt made her look female. The same thing was for three demons except one that could be male.

"Hm. It seems like we've all been summoned by the same summoner." This other girl was a mature woman, 182cm in height with a gentle and slim expensive bluish rob. Her crimson eyes and white hair earned her the name Blanc.

The next demon girl was a bit smaller (169cm) and a bit shy, Violet did a good job hiding her sadistic personality behind that purple hair with a. ponytail and golden eyes. She quickly hid behind the fourth demon who seemed male, but still genderless, his hair was cut short on his shoulder and black like his name Noir.

"Kufufu~ If it isn't the little Violet and those two others... It seems like my memory is doing me tricks and I'm not able to remember their names" Noir spoke.

"Huuh?! Ya got a death wish or something?!" Jaune asked with an annoyed look, summoning a destructive yellow orb and almost slamming it on Noir.

"It seems like my spell worked" This sentence came from the summoner, he attracted the attention of all four demons who looked at him trying to analyze him.

Noir had the instinct and wise move of kneeling in front of him in respect and appreciation of all the corpses he was offered, a fourth of the donation but it was still big.

"My Lord," He said respectfully.

"Hold up' bastard" Jaune stopped Noir from kneeling, "Ya may be an asshole but we still don't know a crap about who this fucker is" Jaune looked at Akira with dreadful eyes.

"True. You may be our summoner but we do not have any clue whatsoever about the purpose of this mess. Seriously, four primordial demons? Do you plan on taking over the world~?" Blanc spoke, with a hint of tease at the end.

"Possibly," Akira responded. Those bold words made Jaune raise a brow.

"Oh yeah?! Tough GUY?!" Jaune said.

"Umm... Who are you?" Ultima asked.

"I'm the one who summoned you all four, after giving up tens of thousands of demon corpses. I don't wish a service from you four, I want you to serve me, as we conquer this world. I may be a le to do so and beyond myself but I desire your company"

Bullshit, having primordial demons as your subordinates were badass, especially the hot ones like those three who would make the perfect harem for later.

"HAHAHA, YOU'RE KIDDING RIGHT?! DIIE BASTARD!!" Jaune attacked Akira with her destructive orb.

Reaching him, Akira made the orb disappear by simply throwing a cold stare at it. It looked like he overestimated the powers of Jaune The Nuclear Demon.

The demons were shocked to see that Jaune's attack did NOTHING. Akira copied her attack and created a perfected form of her spell. "That was very weak, let me show you what real Nuclear Magic looks like" Akira threw the orb at Jaune which threw her kilometers away before exploding in a spectacular atomic explosion that incinerated the ground and made a huge nuclear mushroom appear in the sky.

Akira snapped his fingers and made Jaune reappear in front of them. Blanc gasped her mouth while Violet looked with a sadistic smile at the extremely wounded and damaged body of Jaune who was at Death's door. She would have died if not thanks to Akira restraining the attack. Noir expected nothing less from the Lord.

"Th—This is amazing ~!!" Violet said while holding her cheeks in excitement and jumping around, while Blanc made fun of Jaune's situation. Akira healed her wounds instantly.

"Wh-What a fuck..." Jaune sighed. "I promise you all power along the way, you will undoubtedly become stronger and surpass the strongest of this world, Guy Crimson" Akira said.

The atmosphere tensed after hearing that name. Guy was an arrogant fuck they all wished to kill and antagonize. And seeing how they all shared the same ideologies, the four devils kneeled in front of Akira and promised eternal loyalty.

He wanted them to become his by giving up his first corpses, but the devils wished to serve him with their bodies and soul as long as it was Akira and no one else.

"Testarossa, Ultima, Carrera, and Diablo will be your respective names. You'll also be granted physical bodies to shape as you like" He said.

The demons were shocked by this, they couldn't believe what Akira was granting them, on top of names they were also given bodies to wield as they pleased! Tons and tons of magic coursed through their bodies, and before they could ask anything, they fainted.
