Baru shook his head slightly to the melodious piano music.
“Boom boom boom…”
There was a knock on the door from outside the office, and then there was no answer from Baru.
With a "click".
The door was opened, and a tall, strong and unfamiliar officer walked in from outside, followed by another one.
The officer in front is 2.5 meters tall, which is unusually tall even in today's human armies. Even Baru is one step shorter than him. The one behind him is slightly inferior, but still bigger than Baru.
"In the devil's world, knocking before entering is considered polite, although I still don't fully understand the meaning of the word 'politeness'."
The tall officer had an exaggerated smile on his face, as if his muscles were flexing too much, and he looked at Baru, who was sitting in the seat behind the desk in front of him, as if he was an ant.
"As the highest-ranking devil in this world, you are so weak and you haven't even awakened your magic power. I have to say that the classification of devils is really special. Maybe you are unusually cunning, or maybe you can bewitch people, but unfortunately..."
Although it still maintained its human appearance, the color of its eyes had turned to that of magma. It walked closer to the desk step by step, as if it was not worried that the other demons outside would react.
Compared to the normal way that demons call each other "humans", higher-level and intelligent demons will more intuitively call humans "devils".
This is a group of creatures with huge changes in abilities, strange and cunning behaviors, and strong destructive desires. They are good at hiding their own malice, and are actually monsters that are comparable to or even purer than demons. The word "human" is not so much a self-proclaimed name for the demons as it is another disguise of the demons.
Even though this was a powerful demon lord, and even though he despised the devil in words, he did not look down on the devil in his heart. During the fights during this period, the demons knew very well that the devil's ability was very complicated to measure.
But it still expects to see panic and fear on the face of this high-ranking devil.
But no.
No expression at all.
The devil could even hear that the devil's heartbeat and breathing remained steady.
The devil on the other side was a fool, and the possibility that he couldn't see that he was not human was almost non-existent, which made the tall and abnormal officer frown.
"Hehe... I have seen true masters in the use of illusions. Your methods are still a little lacking in quality. However, for a demon known for its brutality, it is already very outstanding. I guess you are not an ordinary demon. Are you a great demon?"
Baru raised his head and looked at the "person" who was less than two meters away from the desk. There was no panic in his eyes, nor did he seem to be bluffing.
Which of the two demons is more powerful?
It was a very calm gaze and calm observation, like looking at a lizard inside a glass box.
Although an inexplicable uneasiness had arisen, when Baru mentioned whether it was the "big devil", the tall "officer" still flashed a trace of disdain. This was not a simple expression, but an almost instinctive mental wave of contempt, which was naturally captured by Baru.
This suddenly cheered up Baru, who had been expressionless.
"Oh? Judging from your reaction, your rank is higher than that of the Great Demon, or even much higher?"
It was obvious that Baru's entire condition had changed significantly from before. Even his heartbeat, although the speed remained the same, the strength was very different. He even felt like a drum beating in his chest.
"Tear... rip..."
There was a sound from the cuffs of another soldier's uniform. The originally fitting uniform was gradually torn apart due to the expansion of the body. The hands that originally belonged to a human became rough, and sharp claws emerged.
“Crackle…Crackle…”
His body shape has also changed accordingly, from being slightly shorter than the "officer" in front to now being nearly three meters tall.
"Great Lord, although we originally planned to capture this devil, I suddenly feel that it would be better to kill you here."
The big devil took two steps forward and looked down at the devil in front of him who seemed stronger than the devil himself.
"Please allow me to kill him!"
These words were so scorching that the air between Baru and the devil seemed turbid and twisted, and the papers on the table curled up one by one.
In just the next moment, the red shadow of the big devil's claw flashed by.
“Woo~~” “Bang…”
The desk in front of Baru broke into two pieces, and a continuous crack appeared on the ground and the wall behind him.
But the big devil who suddenly attacked was unable to split the devil in front of him in half with one claw, and even the chair remained intact.
In front, a human hand grabbed the claw of the big demon.
The big devil looked at the "weak" devil in front of him with shock. The devil had no magic power at all. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break free.
On the other side, the Demon Lord felt much more deeply than the big devil, because more than 99% of Baru's attention was fixed on him, giving the Demon Lord an absurd feeling of oppression.
“Crack…Crack…”
The sound of muscles struggling came from the position of the devil's claw. Baru grabbed the devil's claw and slowly stood up from the chair.
At the same time, a terrifying aura is gradually increasing, as if an ancient giant beast is slowly waking up.
"Devil... Lord? Hehehehehehe... Hahahahahahahahahaha!!!"
Baru's laughter gradually grew louder from the moment it started.
"Very good!! Very good!! Finally I can move around!"
The nature of his job means that even though he is the leader of the Silent Knights, no matter how powerful he is, he rarely has the opportunity to fight freely. Even if he has rest time, most of it is spent on self-training or training others, so at this moment, his happiness is not fake.
Baru could feel that this so-called Demon Lord was very powerful. Among all enemies, he could be considered the strongest one he had ever encountered.
The excitement of facing a strong enemy, the excitement of wanting to exert more strength, the sense of glory of being a silent knight who longs to kill the enemy...
This is a Baru that ordinary people rarely see, whether at the national level or within the Dawn Association.
But this was not very friendly to the two demons. Indistinctly, the word "devil" seemed to have a deeper meaning.
"Let's go... to a place where we can move freely!!"
The sound presents a special vibration, causing the surrounding air to beat continuously.
At the moment when the entire base was trapped in an illusion, when a few people had already noticed that something was wrong but had no effective countermeasures.
"boom……"
Baru's office was directly turned into ruins by the violent airflow and the huge force of the ground rebound. A large pit wider than the office and two meters deep appeared under the ruins.
At the same time, in the direction behind the office, a terrifying gully two or three meters wide, as if it had been plowed by a huge iron plow, extended to the distance between the Sanfeng Mountains.
The two demons and Baru had disappeared from the spot, and the entire base, which was still in the illusion, fell into a shaking state that lasted for 5 seconds.
