Warlock of War: My Ares System



Satan turned towards me, his lips arching into a devious but also amused smile. "If you wanted to know the truth then you should have just asked me. No need to go through such a roundabout way." As he spoke those words, his smile slowly relaxed and he looked at me as if he saw something in me. His eyes glistened and as he took another puff of smoke, he blew it into my face, stinging my eyes and nose. 

"You asshole," I grunted, wiping my hand back and forth, attempting to dissipate the cloud of musty smoke. Before it smelled nice but now that I took the brunt of the dried-up herbs burned through the wrapping of paper, it just wasn't nice in the slightest.

"This world is real. Definitely real. I wouldn't be the strongest demon lord if I could only create a mere imitation of history," He answered my biggest question instantly. My jaw loosened and as I finished rubbing my stinging eyes, I looked over the courtyard of death and poison. 

"Then why haven't you killed your arch nemesis… or nemesis's I guess. Aren't they much weaker back here in the First Eon? I heard their ascension is soon, probably at the end of this Eon, so shouldn't you be killing them now before they get any stronger?" I asked probably the second biggest question I had after having the first confirmed with ease. "And even if you did fail, you could just go back in time again and again and again and again." 

The devil lightly chuckled, his two fingers pressing the cigarette from both sides relaxing as his head drooped, his long black hair covering his face. "I've tried, boy. Over and over and over and over again. But my genes to my atoms have been programmed to never be able to surpass those bastards, no matter what I do… no matter what we all do…"

It made sense. It all made sense now. Why we were even selected as successors or I guess pupils for these demon lords. They needed people who were strong enough to complete the task they had been limited by. They needed people who could surpass them without the limitation set by their own creators. 

"That almost makes me feel bad for you…" I chuckled before my expression fell into a deadly serious face. "...although, you don't really think we'll follow your plan step by step. We have our own plans and one of those is to eradicate all of you. All of these fucking demon lords, demon gods, gods, angels… it doesn't matter to me or my friends. We'll eradicate all of you." 

"Are you sure about that?" 

"Obviously right now we can't kill you because we're too weak-" 

"You keep saying 'we' like your friends have already agreed to do something so dangerous. I'll give you that at least… you managed to gather so much trust from them," Satan smiled, his hand running through his hair, swiping it back so I could see that eerie smile of his. "But do you really think they'll be your pawns forever? After this little divorce of your friend group, I doubt any of them will be willing to follow your continuous orders." 

I grit my teeth at the harsh reality of his words. I already knew this, but if I didn't take such a chance, then I wouldn't be able to have comrades that could stand by my side. Call it arrogance, but it's an assurance to me that I won't have anybody who will hold me back in the future. 

"Kekekeke… You're so fucking stupid," The devil laughed, flicking his cigarette away and standing up. "Stop relying on others. If you truly want to kill the gods then get rid of all baggage possible. Those kids have nothing on you and your potential. Not only were you born a demi-god but you even have the ancestry of these supreme beings in your veins… Now, get your ass back on those stairs and continue training."

(Findir POV)

The air was thin and dry, just like the bark of the towering trees surrounding me. From where I stood, I was but an ant to these towering towers of nature, but despite them resembling the trees on the overworld, they were different in so many ways. 

Their thickness was unbelievable. They were not only as wide and long as skyscrapers, but they were practically as tall as them as well. And from anywhere within hell, as long as you weren't on the complete opposite side of this scorching dimension, you would be able to see these trees. 

I always wondered what they were there for, but upon hearing the demon goddess tell me that it was the territory of my one and only demon lord, I couldn't help but get more curious. So, I tested out its density, and boy were they strong. I could hardly even leave a dent in them never mind opening a crack long enough to topple them. 

Wood as brown as mud and leaves as bright and burning as the multiple white suns above us. They glistened with their almost lunar glow, showering the entire forest bed with a white powder that stung every time it came in contact with my skin.

"I hope this is good enough for the residents here…" I meekly smiled as hundreds of glowing red eyes stared down on me from the stupidly big branches sprouted out from each gargantuan trunk.
