"I didn't expect you to become like this, I'm so disappointed, Imbell, you actually died under your own attack, it seems that Lord Lucifer overestimated your strength. ”

"Master Arcus, is there something that my subordinates don't understand?"

Say. ”

"Why do you want to help Imber collect the body, in the Demon Realm before, he targeted you everywhere because your level was higher than his. ”

"Hahaha, do I hold a grudge for such a trivial matter? Why should I collect his body, it's very simple, because I want to thank him, he was the one who showed me Michael their weakness, and I kept Imbell's body, I was useful. ”

In the darkness, I didn't see what the person who spoke looked like, but judging from the voices echoing around me, the ability and level of the devil that appeared at this time must be higher than all the devils that appeared before, or even higher, the kind of power that can make the dark air condense, even if there is no entity, you can feel a very strong sense of oppression.

Suddenly, the sound disappeared, and the silence around them returned to death, and strangely enough, the night seemed to be very long, it should have been the time of dawn, but the surroundings were still as dark as ever, which made Michael and the others feel an invisible threat approaching them.

"Michael, who can have the power to take Imbel from under dozens of pairs of eyes of all of us without us detecting it?" Gabriel still couldn't let go of what had just happened, but Michael seemed to be worried differently than him, and in Michael's opinion, he was more worried about the darkness that could not be broken at this time.

"The devil who can take Imbel away under such circumstances must have abilities above us, and the level is not something we have encountered, and the next battle will be a bitter battle, Lucifer's patience is completely close to the zero threshold, so now we have to be careful and careful, the devil will attack us and humans at any time. ”

"What?"

"Now I think your biggest concern is the environmental factors that have not been able to meet the light, right?" or Remiller knew what Michael was really worried about, but apparently he couldn't explain the current situation.

"Yes, I always feel that we are not in the human world, as if we have entered the trap set by Lucifer, this darkness has lasted for too long and too long, it seems that Lucifer is using the attack of darkness to make our hearts begin to dissipate, Remiller, you look at the human beings at this time, it turns out that they still have a lot of desires for life, and now in the darkness, there is no hope on their faces, more despair. ”

"Yes. Remiller looked at the humans behind him, and indeed there was no firm hope in their eyes at this time, but more of a desperate sluggishness for life.

"If this continues, no matter how strong our ability is, we will put a lot of thought into protecting human beings, and at that time, as long as a little attack may be fatal, if these human beings can regain hope, with their support, our battle will be smooth, but now ・・・・・・" Michael, who has always been wise, has also lost his proposition and direction on issues like human beings.

"Michael, what are we going to do if we can't help you?"

It seems that this Michael is nothing more than that. The devil who spoke before in the dark, it turned out that they did not disappear, but had been lurking around Michael, and the dark environment gave them a good protective color, so that Michael and they did not realize that they had been completely exposed to the evil eye of the devil at this time.

"Master Arcus, then let's attack now, so that we can win without much effort. ”

"Say you're a little ghost, you're a little ghost, what General Ben wants to do is to fight with strength, not to do these petty thefts, and how do you know that Michael didn't set a trap and wait for us?"

It turns out that this Akus is from the upper level of the demon world, ranked as a general, above the duke, and his strength is second only to the first order of the seven demon kings, because there is only the rank of cabinet under the demon king, so the strength should not be underestimated, and Akus is known as the shadow general of the demon world, and the shadow army he leads can kill the enemy invisibly, without leaving his own footprints, that is, the reason why the outside world cannot know the truth in detail about Akus, no one knows what his final strength is until now.

"That's right, but have we been waiting?"

"There's another reason why we can't attack now, Lord Black Moss's dark law is coming to an end, and then the light will be restored here, and it's impossible for us to hide and fight. ”

"And when are we going to attack?"

"You kid can't wait to fight, why are you in such a hurry?"

"My lord doesn't know, I waited for a hundred years to encounter such a fighting meeting, and we used to watch others fight, and our hands itched after watching too much. ”

Speaking yes, the deputy of this shadow general, that is, the second position - Ram, although he is a deputy, but he has the trust of Akus, so only he can talk to a devil general figure like this, of course, Ram's strength is also very strong, and he can be compared with Gabriel.

"Then we have to wait, because Lord Black Morse's dark spell takes 5 days to recover after each cast, so we give Michael 5 days of respite first, and 5 days later is their time of death. ”

"But Lord Lucifer is not asking us to end Michael's life as soon as possible. ”

"Don't worry, Lord Lucifer doesn't know the actual situation, so we just have to wait for Lord Black Moss's instructions. ”

After saying that, the two devils disappeared into the darkness, and slowly the originally dark night sky revealed a trace of light, and Michael saw this, and seemed to see hope.

"Look, it's almost dawn. At this time, human beings, who had been in fear, began to cheer for the arrival of light, and saw that the light gradually spread across the earth, and the surrounding was no longer dark and terrifying, and everyone's hearts were also coming out of the haze little by little.

"It seems that everything that is alive needs light. At this time, Lance, who had not spoken all this time, spoke, although he was used to living in the dark, but at this time he could feel that from the depths of his soul he still longed for light.

"Yes, what we are doing now is to fight for the light, if Lucifer occupies the world, then the darkness will be shrouded forever, everyone listen to me, although I can't predict what will happen in the next battle, but please no matter what opponents or difficulties we encounter, even if it is death, do not forget our fighting mission, we are not fighting for ourselves, but for the light. Michael knew that it was useless to say big things now, and that only telling everyone the truth was the most effective motivation.

"Is it really impossible to know who the next opponent is?"

"I'm sorry, I'm stupid, I really can't answer everyone, I'm sorry. ”

"Don't embarrass Michael, everything about the devil is actually what he learned and understood later in order to lead everyone to fight better, I know how much time and effort Michael spent in order to give you the most accurate instructions, if he doesn't know, it means that the next situation is really beyond his control. ”

"Remiller, we're not explaining anything to *Michael, it's just that in the current situation, we're afraid that we won't be able to parry, when it's still dark and unbright, how can it light up all of a sudden?" Wind Roach actually knows how much Michael has paid, in fact, in this battle, it is Michael who is most afraid, but in order to stabilize everyone's hearts, he has to show calmness, but there are still some situations that require Michael to explain, for Wind Roach, he really doesn't want to see his partner like this.

"I can understand, Remiler, I'm fine, I can't answer your next opponent, but I can tell you why it's dawning? Because the previous darkness, if I'm not mistaken, should have come from the hand of Black Moss, it was he who indulged in the dark spell and kept the surroundings in darkness, and the sky suddenly brightened, which only means that his magic can no longer be used, and it has reached the limit. ”

"Does that mean that the balance of black and white has been restored here now?"

"No, what I do know is that every time Black Mos uses the Dark Method, it will take 5 days to recover, and after 5 days, he will still fall into the same situation as before. ”

"Is it only five days? Does that mean we only have five days of peace?"

"I think I'm afraid so, but don't be discouraged, 5 days is enough, these 5 days, what we have to do is to move humanity to a safe place, as long as humanity is safe, our fight is without worries. ”

"Where is it safe?"

"This ・・・・・・・・・・"

"Michael, leave the transfer of humanity to me. ”

"What? God, how is this ・・・・・・?"

"Haha, why can't you, you fight for me to protect my beloved humans, can't I do something to make you fight in peace?"

"This ・・・・・・・・・・"

"Well, don't say it, I actually have two things to do this time, one is to help you transfer the human race, and the other is to tell you about the opponent you will face next. ”

"What, you mean you know what the devil Lucifer is going to send next?"

"Yes, in fact, his appearance is not unexpected, he has existed since I was friends with Asmoli, but at that time he was the embodiment of evil, so he has been in a state of seal, and later after Asmoli turned around through Lucifer's body, this seal disappeared. ”

"You mean, this opponent once existed in the same time and space as you, doesn't that mean that his power is very strong?" When everyone knew that this mysterious opponent was actually a person who appeared at the same time as the god-sama, their hearts and bodies trembled with fear and worry.

"Don't worry too much, although he once appeared at the same time as us, his power is not as strong as the Seven Demon Kings, but the terrible thing about him is that as long as there is darkness, they will not fail. ”

"God-sama, who is this mysterious figure?"

"Shadow General - Akus. ”

"General? Why is his rank a general? Isn't that higher than what he appeared before?"

"Yes, among the seventy-two disciples he is more powerful than the others, but don't worry too much, don't forget that you are the messengers of the light, do you think that the darkness will overcome the light?"

It was the last sentence that made everyone regain confidence again.

Five days later, we will face this shadow general, and although we have regained our confidence under the encouragement of God-sama, we still don't know anything about the situation of our opponents, so victory or defeat is unknown
