Apocrypha III

Akasan and Leviathan stared each other down.

Akasan removed his robe and placed it inside of a portal. He rubbed his right arm that was covered in bandages. "So tell me… what was the reason for sending Tuoni on my planet? He came to us talking some nonsense about collecting a debt."

"The Demon Lords have lived in disgrace ever since Dante's blunder against Shiva and his Eudora Sect. He left, Beelzebub left, and so did Lilith there. We lost all respect in the Divine Realms! Our names stopped holding their weight, or titles no longer striking fear into the hearts of mortals. Yet Dante as the Demon King still remained one of the most feared men in all of history!! Have you any idea of what that feels like?!"

"No, and frankly, I think it's silly of you to care so much. If your name stopped holding weight, doesn't that just mean you weren't as strong as you thought?"
