They looked around the chamber after five mins since they entered the chamber, but there was no sign of Asmodeus anywhere. They looked up and believed Asmodeus would come from above them, so they had prepared a precaution for it.
Rozan tried to scan with his wind magic all the way to the top and suddenly felt a presence.
"Everyone! Get ready!" Rozan shouted, but before they could react, a bright white light was coming down toward them.
It wasn't a light, but it was a [Holy Flame], a fierce one as well that Rozan barely managed to stop before hitting them with his [Anti-magic Barrier]. The flame dispersed before it could touch them, and their lives were saved.
They all looked up and the blinding bright white flame was trying to get through the barrier, but it got dispersed instantly. They couldn't see anything behind the bright flame, and suddenly Rozan was stomped to the ground by Asmodeus with his foot on Rozan's face.
"I have seen your tricks, and you're the only troublesome one," Asmodeus said with a bit of a smile as he looked down at Rozan.
Asmodeus glanced to his left and saw Sven and Vincze dash toward him. He smirked and flapped his wings to send those two away from him. He then looked over his shoulder and saw Nagy and Lillith were ready to stab him in the back.
Asmodeus flapped his wings backward and hit those two in the head with his sturdy four wings. They both managed to block them in time, but got pushed and ended up hitting each other's back.
As soon as Asmodeus turned around to look at those two, he felt a movement behind him that lurked from his shadow. It was Nagy's doppelganger that she had prepared. Her doppelganger stabbed one of his left wings and managed to cut it off before her doppelganger disappeared.
"Get the fuck off of him!" Gunnar shouted as he struck Asmodeus with his giant shield.
Edith grabbed and carried Rozan away from Asmodeus, and the safest place would be behind Jeanne and Aurea. It would be bad if Rozan fell unconscious because his [Anti-magic Barrier] would cancel itself out.
They all regrouped and looked at Asmodeus who regenerated his wing back so quickly. They were thinking of a plan because Asmodeus was totally different from Glasya. He was still powerful even without his magic, and they were afraid that they wouldn't be a match for him in strength as well.
Asmodeus flapped his wings as he stretched his fingers and stared at them with his sharp gaze. He then disappeared in the blink of an eye and reappeared right in front of Rozan. Jeanne and Aurea unsheathed their swords and blocked Asmodeus' before his long claws could reach Rozan.
"Even if we aren't participating, that doesn't mean we won't protect him," Jeanne said with a calm expression.
Asmodeus smirked and disappeared again into thin air.
The skill Asmodeus used was called [Spatial Movement] which allowed him to move from one place to another in an instant. That also meant he could hide himself in another dimension if he wanted to. It was different from [Spatiokinesis] since [Spatial Movement] could only control his own body while [Spatiokinesis] could control everything.
"If he can move one spot to another in an instant, there's no safe space for us," Sven said as he held his scythe tightly.
"I'll give you guys a boost, and use it to your heart's content. The only objective is to kill him and that's it," Jeanne said as he looked around and couldn't feel Asmodeus' presence at all.
They looked at Jeanne with curious looks on their faces, and then she activated her skill [Maestro]. The heat they felt suddenly disappeared, and their bodies felt so light as if they had become one with the wind. They immediately checked their status screen and were dumbfounded when their [Body Enhancement] skill had turned into a [Godly Physical] skill with level 20.
"Holy shit! Godly Resistance and Godly Recovery?!" Sven asked in disbelief. "What's the duration of this buff?" Sven asked.
"None. As long as you're around me that buff will stay forever," Jeanne answered.
"Fucking hell. Looks like the table has turned," Vincze said as he readied his stance and kept a lookout on his surroundings. "Let's go all out immediately. We only have two days left and we might want to have a nice and peaceful day before we deal with the breakout," Sven continued as he activated his [Harmony] skill.
All of them nodded their heads in agreement and activated the [Harmony] skill as well. Nagy tossed her poison vials at everyone and they didn't hesitate to drink them because it gave a physical boost.
Their hearts were pounding ten times per second as they started to see dust particles floating in front of them. They all moved so slowly because their five senses had been enhanced hundreds of times.
They pretended to have a big opening around them and tried to bait Asmodeus out of his hideout. Gunnar suddenly felt something behind his right ear and saw a hand coming out of thin air. He didn't hesitate to grab it and pulled it as hard as he could. He then slammed it down to the ground and realized it was Asmodeus.
"Gotcha," Gunnar smirked.
Vincze thrust his spear deep into Asmodeus' chest and pierced through his back. The spear's blade was deep in the ground and Asmodeus couldn't free himself because Vincze stepped on his chest.
Asmodeus spread his wings and pushed himself up. He flew away because he was shocked by the sudden change in their strength. But when he was trying to fly away, his wings got cut off without him noticing.
"Where do you think you're going," Lillith grinned as she was hanging on Asmodeus' back with a bloody dagger in her right hand. "Come play with us," Lillith whispered as she slit his throat and pulled him back down.
Before Asmodeus could regenerate all his wounds and before he even touched the ground, he was surrounded by them. They all took their time and butchered every limb and body part as Asmodeus was falling.
"To see a Demon King getting butchered like that is really a sight to see," Aurea said with her arms crossed. "By the way, that skill also boosted my skills. I guess we both can make a good time in the future," Aurea looked at Jeanne who kept staring at Asmodeus getting mutilated by Sven, Nagy, Lillith, and Gunnar.
"Something isn't right. He's not getting weaker, instead, he gets stronger and stronger," Jeanne said.
"That's fine because we learned from our fight with Glasya. It's his Lust skill kicking in, and this is my turn to shine," Rozan said as he walked past Jeanne and Aurea.
Rozan cast [Dispell] on Asmodeus and deactivated Asmodeus' [Lust] skill. It was similar to what happened to Glasya and brought him down to his knees since he lost all his power in an instant.
"To think he gets excited from being hurt... It's disgusting..." Rozan said with his eyes squinted and a disgusted expression.
Asmodeus fell to the ground with nothing else but half of his torso, neck, and head left. He was shocked by what just had happened to him, and he didn't even feel any pain until he landed with nothing remaining.
Aurea stood right above him and looked down at him as she scoffed.
"The age of Demon Kings is over old man. The princess will be the one who ruled Gehenna with Luciel," Aurea said as she lifted her sword. "Goodbye," Aurea smirked and then stabbed her sword right in between his eyes.
Aurea took Asmodeus's soul and kept it inside her body as reserved food.
[Congratulations on defeating Demon King Asmond, the Sin of Lust!]
[All the Constellations are overjoyed with your achievement and will grant you a single wish for every Awakener that participated in defeating Demon King Asmodeus!]
[All the Constellations are looking at you with curiosity. They are waiting for the wish that you want as your reward!]
[You can ask for a skill that you want as long as the Constellations can grant it. The skill that you wished for is a [Benefactor Exclusive] skill]
"Sweet!" Vincze said as he rubbed his hands together in excitement.
