The Aftermath - An honest Alliance

Asmodeus surpassed the power of Johan after transforming and using his full power; however, he felt strange. It felt like Johan's power wasn't at its limit and constantly increased by sucking the life of the nobles. 

'I don't like this feeling...'

He watched as the pope's body rolled across the ground outside, his right arm severed along with the bloody tentacles. 

Though he seemed to have won the fight, Asmodeus looked at his missing right arm and wounded chest. He knew he might have lost if not for cutting off his right shoulder after being infected.

'Johan is a monster even after transforming into a demon lord. If I didn't cut off my arm when I did... then the situation might've been different.'
