News of Eddimacus' defeat by the Fallen Monarch and his complete disappearance in the Revenge Challenge quickly spread throughout the multiverse, but no one knows what happened behind the scenes.

Some believe that the Fallen Monarch killed or imprisoned Edimachus, while others say that he escaped and went into hiding when he was about to be defeated by Grant.

A few even suspect that Epimacus left the bottomless abyss out of conscience condemnation and went to seek celestial salvation.

Only a few beings know that the truth behind Edimachus's disappearance is that he was deceived and imprisoned by the Fallen Monarch's conspiracy, all due to his inexplicable affection for Assas.

When he first met Assas, he was a resolute Asmo god-man paladin with six fingers on each hand.

Like the half-demon half-bloods, the Asmos who have inherited the divine bloodline of the Celestial Realm are representatives of goodness and justice, and unless they fall, their camp is only among goodness and neutrality, and there will be no trace of evil.

Years ago, the legendary Paladin Asas, a follower of the true gods of the Celestial Realm, was tasked with redeeming the soul of the fallen Edimachus, hoping to bring him to his senses and return to the Celestial Realm.

Ashas fought his way to the nodular plains of the Abyssal Cranial Domain, fearlessly confronting the mighty fallen angel of Edimachus within all the thrones of the Demon King.

Editachus and Assas fought until the latter was exhausted, ending with the Demon King destroying the sword of the Asmo gods with his own black blade of ashes.

When Epimachus grabbed Assas by the throat, he saw something in the eyes of the young paladin, which stirred up his old days and earned him mercy.

Adimachus couldn't make up his mind to kill Asace, but he couldn't let the paladins suffer from the abyssal environment of the Cranial Occipital Domain.

He tried to lure the paladin into the evil side, but for some reason he couldn't do it seriously. Because he seems to have the weakness that still exists in his heart, and he doesn't want the other party to fall with him.

In this way, Asas remained in the cranial occipital domain as a prisoner and made an agreement with Edimachus. Under his men, he helps him fight against a powerful foe, the fallen monarch Grant.

After a long time together, Asas succeeded in arousing Edimachus's wrath against the demons of the Abyss.

And in the case of countless battles side by side, a strange friendship began to grow between the two hearts, and Edimachus's trust and obedience to Assas, which confused Edimachus's demonic subordinates, and stimulated some demonic subordinates to start betraying him.

The Fallen Monarch also did not know from any traitor that Edimachus, the emerging Demon King, had planned a premeditated attack against him, as well as the alliance between Edithachus and Assas. He launched a demonic betrayal most common in the Abyss, conspiring with Epimaticus' rebellious subordinates to overthrow Epimachus' rule over his territory.

In a fierce battle against the army of Edimachus, the demons of Grant's rule easily captured Assath and imprisoned him in the most terrible prison in the Casseli Plane.

Edimachus could not bear to lose Assas, and the demon's rebellion fueled the Fallen Angel's fierce hatred. For this reason, Edimachus forsook his army, his kingdom, and his wicked ways, and fled to Casseri to rescue Assath and seek salvation.

However, what Edimachus didn't expect was that things were far from that simple. His story with Yashas doesn't end there.

As the army of the Fallen Monarch defeated the demonic army abandoned by Edymachus, Edhemachus finally reached the city of the dead at the bottom of the Casseri plane. Found the imprisoned Asaces.

However, he found that Assac had become a prisoner of one of Grazt's powerful allies, and that he had lost his former luster and was in a sluggish state under the torture of the powerful undead priest known as Dark Miraku.

Having lost the support of his army and realm, Edimachus, who had fallen to the strength of the lower gods, was unable to snatch the paladin from the control of the dark Miraku with his own strength, believing that it was all his own fault, and for a time he almost achieved true salvation, and decided to exchange his body freely for the paladin's mental recovery and return to Heavenly Mountain safely.

The demon lich Miraku readily agreed. Just after Eddimacus was imprisoned and the paladin was freed, Edhemachus saw a scene that broke his heart.

Yasace's previous sluggish madness. From the originally handsome and bright Celestial Paladin to a dark-skinned, half-demonic human Dark Paladin with six fingers on both hands, he explained the reason to Eddimacus and begged for his forgiveness.

It turned out that Assacs had been deceiving Edimachus from the beginning.

In fact, he is Grant's loyal son, and the Fallen Monarch has been withholding all news about his son before using him as a pawn in his favor, and has personally disguised him as a paladin with celestial blood with his powerful divine power and sacred weapons.

The moment he got the truth, Eddie Machus realized how stupid he was.

Because Grant had long since discovered the weakness of his enemies, a long-buried thirst for redemption that Edimachus thought he had long lost, the Fallen Monarch had successfully exploited this weakness in a brilliant scheme.

This extreme fact was unacceptable to Eddimarcus, bordering on madness.

The useless redemption in his heart, and his pathetic search for love, eventually cost him his kingdom, his freedom, his mind, everything, and the dark Miracul used to torment him for 50 years.

The words of the demon lich provoked the madness of Eddimacus, causing the fallen angel to fall again and become more evil than ever, and in despair, Epimacus had been eroded by resentment, longing for freedom, power, revenge, and countless other things that the demon could hardly have.

Breaking everything is now the only thought of the fallen angels.

Yasas didn't know this, he only knew that the Epimachus he cared about had been tortured by Miraku and lost his mind, he was so hopeful that he could wake up Epimachus, and then get the other party's forgiveness, in order to save Epimachus, he did not hesitate to betray his terrible father, and was willing to give everything.

The chains of black stygian iron locked deep into Eddimacus's ribs, passing through the gray wings behind the fallen angel, making it impossible for him to break free even with the power of a true god.

With tears of remorse in his eyes, Asace carefully cut the chains of the Stygian Iron with his weapon and artifact sword, untying Eddimacus' bondage.

And the beautiful fallen angel, even with the sharp pain of the most sensitive wing wound being pulled by the chains, still did not make him react.

Assas could only recount their past over and over again, trying to awaken Edymachus's memories and restore his sanity.
