The Spriggan Continent housed one of the three great dungeons, the Dwelling of desires ranked [SS]. It is also the place where one of the three primordial Demon Lords, the Demon Lord of Lust resided. Currently on the 647th floor of Dwellings of desire, in a dimly lit posh room sat a woman wearing a white faceless mask. She had an extremely alluring build and a head full of luminous red-colored hair. Half of it spilled over her shoulders and the rest sat cozily at the sofa she was sitting on. She seemed to be wearing a dress made of exquisite leather that tightly clung to her body that showcased her bewitching body.
Every gesture she made was so perfect and enthralling that she could mesmerize the whole world with just her movements. She had a voluptuous breast and a perky bottom so tantalising that it was perfect to the point of breathtaking. Her creamy white legs were shapely and seemed to hold an endless splendor, red toenails that matched her luminous red hair flashed intermittently from the openings of her dress. Her entire body was dripping with a kind of allure and seductive charm that ate at one's mind and rationality.
At this moment Amon who was kneeling at her side and dressed in his usual butler attire said while looking down at the ground "My lady it was as you expected the fragment of Envy and Gluttony had born once again and together this time. Gareth hosted the banquet to announce his son Belial who was chosen by the fragment of Envy ascending to the position of Demon Lord." Listening to Amon's report the woman parted the glass of wine from her cherry pink lips and replied, "hmmm anything else?" the voice that came out was seductive to the extreme.
However, Amon wasn't affected the slightest, he pondered over her question for a while and replied, "there was nothing uncommon other than the [S] rank subordinate of gluttony..ahh... I remember there was a peculiar demon present in the banquet." "Ohh! Peculiar you say?" the woman replied with a voice full of interest. "Yes, Lady Lilith there was a demon whose status even I nor miss Zelda and sir Stellar couldn't see through," Amon said as he remembered the scene back in the castle of Avernus. "Hnnn even you couldn't see through huh!" as if it caught her interest Lilith replied with great interest as she played with her wine glass.
"Do you want me to investigate him? my lady." Amon asked detecting her interest towards the demon. At this moment a beautiful woman wearing an angry face mask that only covered half of her face and wearing a warrior's clothing which accentuated her mesmerizing curves spoke out "we do not have time for that. The Seraphim of Origin Azrael of Patience is instigating the Azure Moon Empire into usurping the neighboring kingdoms."

In the depths of the north side of the Ghastly Winding Forest lay gigantic honeycombs on top of equally gigantic trees. Currently, the trees were on fire and large colonies of Killer Worker Bees were swarming Simon from all sides. "Infernal Blade Storm" with his shout, the crimson sword in his hand burned wildly as it turned hundreds of Killer Worker Bees into ashes. Ground charred black for miles, and trees burned into charcoals littered everywhere.
Devastation spread as far as the eye could see and amidst all of this carnage was Simon with his wings spread open and a crimson sword on hand. After a month of progress and familiarizing himself with the Crimson Blazing Infernal Blade, he was once again here challenging the foe which gave him a lot of trouble previously.
If it was not for them chasing him to no ends, he wouldn't have intruded the territory of the Earth-Shattering Lower Dragon and be forced to pathetically flee for his life. Reminiscing about the humiliation he suffered back then, he brandished his Crimson Blazing Flame Blade and large groups of Killer Worker Bees were incinerated into ashes in an instant. Utilising the power of the sword, even these enemies which previously could threaten his life, were no match for him.
The power that the sword bestowed to its user could be explained with only one word 'terrifying'. And it was still refinement level 1, he could not even imagine what kind of power a fully refined Crimson Blazing Infernal Blade would display.
Simon finally gets his big jump but that's not all. Vote for the novel to know what happens next. Stay tuned!
