"ah……"
With a snapping motion as if to devour the Fire Demon Queen whole, the Death Hunter's massive jaws slammed shut.
Kacha.
Unfortunately, its mouth was not torn apart with flesh and blood, but instead filled with scalding lava.
The beautiful woman who was still in human form just a second ago disappeared, and what remained in place was a huge and ferocious fire demon.
Her entire body was engulfed in scorching lava and flames; in this form, the Flame Demon Queen was completely unrecognizable from her previous appearance.
Her eyes burned with eerie flames as she glared at the monster before her and roared:
Don't underestimate me!
Her alluring voice turned into thunder as she roared and slammed the monster that was biting her arm heavily onto the ground!
boom!
The ground beneath their feet cracked open, and a large number of newly born abyssal worms in the three blood pools were instantly killed by the shockwave!
Not only this hidden underground cave, but even the castle above it trembled slightly.
Out of caution, that seemingly simple attack was executed without any reservations.
However, this attack, which was enough to cripple a legendary melee professional, did not have a sufficient effect.
The Death Hunter's body shattered under the impact, but as the splattered flesh and blood fell to the ground, the broken body quickly grew new flesh and blood!
Super-fast regeneration!
If there is no way to destroy it in one go, its physical body will quickly regenerate.
boom!
The Flame Queen's signature fire attacks are much less effective against the Death Hunter, losing almost 80% of their effectiveness.
The most effective attack, surprisingly, is pure physical combat!
only.
"A legendary-level aberration, though I don't know why it obeys your orders... Heh, is this your source of confidence?"
For any legend, the Aberrant Demon would be a formidable opponent.
However, as the demon lord of the abyss, the Fire Demon Queen has destroyed more than one mutated demon.
For her, it was troublesome, but not a problem.
...
...
Although the situation on the main side was somewhat out of control at the beginning, it is now gradually under control and there is no need to worry anymore.
The Flame Demon Queen sensed the situation and found no unusual activity in the two adjacent levels of the abyss. The lords, after being stimulated, remained in their respective territories under high tension.
"Is there no involvement from other Abyss forces?"
So, who is behind Karan?
"Who gave you that confidence?"
Without waiting for Karan's reply, the Flame Demon Queen took matters into her own hands and placed her palm on Karan's head to obtain the answer.
"Gods...?"
Upon realizing this answer, the demon lord paused for a moment, then released his grip and suddenly laughed:
"Haha, hahahaha!"
"My poor child, you've been deceived."
Karan: !
!
"There can be no conscious deity in the world today!"
"They are already asleep, and there is no possibility of them waking up."
Not a deity?
impossible……
If even that sage can't be considered a god, then what can?
Under Kalan's incomprehensible gaze, the Flame Demon Queen laughed loudly, then said mockingly:
"Even if they are true gods, what do they amount to in the abyss?"
"Do they really dare to come?"
"In this place that could truly lead to their deaths, they don't even dare to put their hands here directly; they can only send disgusting angels!"
Using her fingertips to lift Kalan's chin, the Flame Demon Queen looked at the madness on her face and the unrestrained ambition in her eyes.
“My daughter, tell me, who told you to do this?”
Who is impersonating a deity?
The sharp fingertips pierced Karan's chin, the stinging pain bringing her back to her senses somewhat, but before she could feel fear, she keenly noticed something.
……daughter?
Seeing Kalan's shocked expression, the Flame Demon Queen laughed with pleasure and used the fingertips of her other hand to scratch her forehead.
Card.
As if something had shattered, Karan, who had been in the form of a man, instantly reverted to her most authentic female form and collapsed helplessly to her knees.
"What? Surprised? You didn't think you hid it very well, did you?"
Looking at Kalan's face, which resembled her own, the Flame Demon Queen sighed:
“Every time I see you, I feel like I’m seeing myself… those eyes are full of ambition.”
Ambition is not a bad thing for Balrog; she welcomes her offspring's desire for her position.
"But more often than not, I think of your father."
"……Father?"
The unfamiliar words confused Karan; she hadn't thought about this question for many years.
She only briefly considered this question when she was certain that she and the Flame Demon Queen were truly mother and daughter.
What kind of person is qualified to be her man?
However, the answers are often the most uninteresting.
Casually speaking, the Fire Demon Queen gave an answer that left Kalan utterly speechless:
"Yes, your father, a good-looking mixed-race man... a pet that gave me some nice memories."
Oh, I see...
"Haha...hahaha."
He burst into laughter for no apparent reason, finding it utterly ridiculous that he had once harbored even the slightest hope.
He was originally just a pet.
This is ridiculous!
...
Boom boom boom!
"Go to hell!"
While using her clones to gather information from Kalan, the Flame Demon Queen continued her slaughter.
She is destroying the souls of the Death Hunters.
Any regenerative ability has its limits; those seemingly immortal abilities are simply those that haven't reached those limits yet.
Since that's the case, then let's just go all the way to that limit.
Moreover, for aberrant demons, their souls are an even bigger problem, collapsing even faster than their bodies!
Through repeated tearing, burning by lava, and crushing, the Death Hunter's body grows stronger with each passing moment.
But just as the Flame Demon Queen had predicted, its soul began to shatter with each reassembly.
"As long as I devour you, I will be able to recover most of my strength!"
As the Death Hunter repeatedly recovered and launched attacks against the Fire Demon Queen, its consciousness indeed began to become chaotic, just as she had predicted.
Everything seemed to be exactly as the Flame Demon Queen had planned, without the slightest deviation.
Soon, it will die completely, becoming nourishment for her recovery.
However, what the Fire Demon Queen didn't expect was that this mutated demon... was somewhat different from the ones she had encountered before.
It was loved by its owner.
Through repeated deaths and rebirths, two worlds appeared before the Death Hunter's eyes.
One is the reality of being constantly torn apart, while in another world, it reappears in the sanctuary.
It knelt before its master's throne just like a well-behaved pet.
Listening to her divine pronouncements.
