Location of Demon Lords

-Chapter 157: Location of Demon Lords-

"You, where did you hear that name?"

Lilith was surprised to hear Har call her by her full name, which seemed like a long time since she last heard it.

She was shocked, confused, and a little worried that her personal information would be leaked, but Har's grip on her grew stronger by squeezing her head and reminding her that she's not in the situation to ask.

'Is this the proper deal for a demon lord?'

Lilith, who was being lifted by the head and squeezed with one hand, looked at Har with resignation, she has always been treated as a superior existence, being praised and revered by all her subjects, but this unknown guy treats her like trash.

'I don't know what tricks he used to capture Mephisto, but he will regret releasing me, he shouldn't be at a better time after being robbed of so much vitality.'

Lilith thought that Har must be acting tough, it shouldn't be possible for him to still hold the maximum power from him, besides, she lied to herself that Har had used external tricks to put Mephisto in a bottle.

With an expression of determination, Lilith's hands glowed and she was less than a second away from unleashing an attack with all her remaining energy, however, she only felt the grip on her head lift and then she caught a glimpse of a fist rushing straight in. to his face.

…

"My God…"

Returning to the tower built by Har, some military vehicles that had been fleeing earlier arrived accompanied by one of his clones.

Due to Peter's request to search for Aunt May, this clone set off long ago to follow the military vehicles as per Spider-Man's instructions, thanks to his speed the clone didn't take long to find them.

Taking advantage of abilities like Shinigami wings and soul state to surprise them, plus the information about Uncle Ben and Peter Parker, both Aunt May and the others were surprised, even though they considered him an enemy when he suddenly appeared, they were soon doubtful about their intentions when they heard about a place where the survivors can stay safe.

Somehow they were convinced to go all the way back, although they were a bit reluctant, they trusted the clone even more when a brilliant pillar of light shot into the sky.

Now they had finally reached the tower, only then could their eyes more easily appreciate the marvelous construction to which they had come.

The huge floating construction that could give Newton a heart attack, with stairs that rise into the sky without being supported by anything, everyone without exception believed for a moment that they were in a dream, however, the voice of a young man returned them to reality.

"Aunt May!!"

Peter and Uncle Ben, who had gone all the way down the stairs to reception, were waiting for Aunt May at the doors.

Seeing the military vehicles, which had stopped not far away on the rocky floor that was reconstructed by Steve, and the people inside were sticking their heads out of the windows to watch, Peter yelled with joy as he saw an old woman illuminated by the light. Moonlight.

"Peter, is that you Peter, where are you!"

Aunt May was surprised and happy to hear her nephew's voice, but she couldn't see Peter anywhere.

"You can sleep here from now on, obviously you can leave anytime if you want."

Har's clone spoke, drawing everyone's attention, then it opened a pair of black wings on its back and began to fly towards the reception, this stunned everyone, how are they supposed to get up there? Only auntie May paid no attention to him as she was still wondering about Peter.

"Oh, Mr. Steve!"-Peter wanted to jump from the reception to hug Aunt May, but he saw Har's clone approaching and he stopped, he still had things to talk about with Steve, so he continued:

"Seriously, thank you very much for everything you have done for me and my family, do not hesitate to call me if you need anything in the future."-Peter said very grateful, even Uncle Ben remained silent, he had already heard before that it was this Steve who restored him to health, for which he was still grateful to this stranger.

"I'm not the real Steve, you still don't have to thank me, I just do what anyone would do in my place."

The clone said without giving it much importance, leaving Uncle Ben aside who seemed confused by the beginning of his words, the clone went to a simple reception table, they are just wooden stairs placed upside down, and pressed one of the small Rocks on the back wall that turned out to be a button.

Then, without the others being able to see it, a blood-red line lit up on the wall hidden behind the rock, this is redstone, going up under some stairs hidden under the stairs leading to the second floor, going through some redstone repeaters to maintain power and going under the stairs leading to the third floor, he finally reached a gap imperceptible to the eye between the ceiling and the roof of the third floor, then he passed to the left to avoid stepping on some objects strangers, it lit up to the end of the roof and turned around the corner, this time passing over the strange objects located at the end of all, or rather, located at the beginning if viewed from the front to the reception.

"Uh?"

Inside the reception, Peter and Uncle Ben didn't know what this clone was doing, but at this moment, Peter could hear a strange sound with his enhanced senses, he turned his head, took a few steps and looked over the door.

There had been built a protruding roof extension, as if to prevent people from getting wet in the rain, however, Peter sharpened his vision and could see how the last line of this extension suddenly launched something.

When the redstone circuit was activated with the push of a button, it was like an electrical circuit that carried power and activated two dispensers that each launched an object that began to fall.

The small objects were actually buckets of sand that were placed in normal size upon touching the ground, then, to everyone's bewilderment, two blocks of compacted sand appeared out of nowhere in front of their eyes.

"What kind of technology is this?"

Peter, who had seen the objects fall from the beginning, was surprised when those small squares that he saw falling suddenly became larger on the ground.

But he still hadn't seen it all, because the clone walked a bit until he reached another specific rock and clicked on it, this time twice after pausing briefly between each one.

Then, the redstone line connecting this button from behind the wall lit up, it went all the way different but similar to the previous circuit until it reached the hidden hole in the ceiling, it turned to the right and all the way lit up, but this circuit was turned into a line of dispensers before the previous one.

With the two activations, the second line of dispensers shot out two squares of sand following Har's pause, like a person spitting out a mouthful of saliva.

While everyone was confused with no idea what was happening, another line of two squares of sand fell forming a second line, also this time one more line had risen.

"...!!"

Peter who saw this seemed to understand something, he looked at Steve's clone again and was very surprised, as well as really wanting to know if his theory about what was happening was correct.

Then, he saw that the clone moved to another specific rock among all the rocks that look like simple decoration on the wall, he tapped the rock and activated the circuit hidden behind the wall, this time he tapped it three times.

'As I thought!'

Peter was very excited to see the result, because a line of sand fell again, this time raising a third line, so he seemed to be right, there is a hidden mechanism behind the wall for the construction of a ladder using compacted sand, so His eyes sparkled, he is someone who loves science and technology, now he was passionate with the desire to investigate more about this strange new mechanism.

The clone moved several times between some specific rocks, 4 clicks, 5 clicks, 6 clicks, in short, in the end a compact sand staircase had been built that connected directly to the reception doors, thus allowing the others to enter .

"Okay, Peter!"

"Aunt May!"

The family finally gathered in the dark reception devoid of light other than that provided by the moon.

The people looked at the Har clone full of questions, but Peter forgot about it due to the reunion of him, besides, there was one among all these people who made his heart beat wildly, Mary Jane.

She seemed very sad and heartbroken, after all, she didn't know the status and location of her mother, regarding her father, well, it's not that she didn't feel bad for leaving him abandoned and escaping with the military along with the other women and children, even though he was a bad father, a bad husband, and a bad person, she still cared a little for him.

Seeing Mary Jane like this, Aunt May took her hand gently and included her in the familiar embrace, which made Peter nervous.

"Sir, we appreciate that you brought us to this place, I don't want to be rude, but everyone here is tired and we need a place to rest.."

One of the soldiers said, you could see that the women were holding their sleeping children in their arms and had devastated expressions, not only because of physical exhaustion, but rather mental, many had abandoned their husbands in tears, who agreed to leave as long as they and their children can survive, so many can barely stand and hold back their tears.

It is somewhat surprising that Aunt May, the oldest of them all, still remains conscious even though it is around 3 am, even though she is really exhausted and her legs are shaking with exhaustion, she still kept praying to the gods without stopping.

Then Har's next words made the faces of these women and old women, and some strong and energetic children who remain awake but in a daze, show joy for the first time in this night of chaos that seems to be endless.

"You can take any room you want, as long as it's not occupied by someone else obviously, plus you can still investigate if they have any relatives in the tower."

Har's clone said walking towards the door as everyone cleared a path, obviously the fact that the people they had left behind might be here was good news for everyone, even Mary Jane and the military, who were worried about their lives. relatives.

After this, Har's clone jumped out of the reception landing on the rocky floor, which is actually cobblestone slabs on the first floor, and the reason why even the floor was rebuilt has a reason.

At the door, Peter approached with curiosity, this question had already arisen before about this mechanism, how do the blocks of sand return to the place where they came from? Could it be that it is something designed for a single use?

This question was answered by the actions of the clone, who searched for a lever camouflaged among the cobblestone floor and pulled emma, as a result, a hidden mechanism under the floor was deactivated, the redstone line that connects under the rock stopped working. send power to some sticky pistons that remained stretched out.

With the use of the crowbar, the sticky pistons located circling the ground below the sand ladder, and camouflaged under cobblestone slabs that are unnoticed all over the ground, retract taking a portion of the ground in front of them, as a result, the sand began to fall as the ground below it opened up on both sides.

When the pistons opened up the ground, just below the sand ladder a large gap several meters high could be seen illuminated by torches on both sides, the sand turned into a miniature as it passed through the torches placed on both sides of the gap, then, the small buckets of sand fell into "hoppers" and were absorbed.

The cubes were moved from the first to the last line of hoppers and then stowed away in a large chest. On the ground, the clone moved the lever activating the pistons again returning the ground to normal.

"...?"

At the reception, Peter and a few other people who had come to the door curiously were very surprised, they could tell that it was the first time they had seen something like this, moreover, Peter was the most shocked.

He had seen the construction from the beginning, when all the civilians entered a staircase was built that apparently was destroyed for some reason, he did not expect it to be replaced by such an incredible hidden mechanism.

A staircase that is easily built and destroyed, the craziest thing is that it's only been less than an hour since all this was just a plain, so it's even more incredible.

But, as Peter began to imagine possible construction methods for this mechanism, he was pulled from his thoughts by the least expected person, Mary Jane.

"Peter, sorry if I bothered you, but have you seen my father?"-Mary Jane asked her almost muttering as she squeezed her right arm with her left hand, she was not physically hurt, but she felt worried .

Her expression was not very good, her physical and mental exhaustion almost led her to faint, but she would not be calm until she knew about her parents.

Seeing Mary Jane in this state, Peter was not nervous this time, but her expression became serious and complicated, because he knows that Mary Jane's father has died, but he doesn't know how to say it.

…

"Why are there so many of you? You are very annoying pests."

Returning to the battlefield, it was all over, Har was holding a bottle and looked disgusted, his hands were covered with strange blood that also stained his clothes.

Inside the bottle, Lilith was in an almost unrecognizable state, with a swollen face and a lot of stab wounds all over her body, be it her arms, hands, legs and even her torso, Har had no mercy and took advantage of Lilith's regeneration. Lilith to torture her to the extreme, he only stopped when this demon finally answered his doubts.

According to her words, she is a demon lord directly under the orders of the king, Mephisto, and she was sent along with 11 other demons of the same rank as hers to command armies of demons to conquer this world.

Along with Lilith, another demon lord should be leading an army right now and wreaking havoc in South America, at the same time, the remaining 10 should be splitting up and attacking the other continents.

Har was a little disgusted by this tower configuration, a demon king God of hell, 12 demon lords whose power is estimated to be at rank A or higher, plus demon armies whose numbers should easily exceed tens of thousands. .

If this is really the tower filling in the gaps he can find in the plot, if hell really was created by the tower reacting to his idea of ​​creating a nether portal, then he thinks this is punishment for straying too far from the main plot ,even on the second floor he didn't go that far,Light was still creating his own justice and murdering criminals,and the ICPO should still be in search of him with the cooperation of L.

Leaving this idea aside, we must not forget that this floor belongs to Spider-Man, a hero from the world of Marvel, although this specific plot lacks villains with overwhelming power, it is not the same in parallel universes as the line of Avengers time, so you should always be careful in these kind of worlds with hidden enemies and unknown dimensions.

Who knows what a tragedy it would have been to open the gates to hell in the world of "Ghost Rider", it's not certain if he would die at Mephisto's hands at that moment, but he would surely be slammed to the ground with no chance to resist.

He doesn't have the confidence to defeat even the cheap copy of Mephisto in this plot, but it would be different if he could use the power of the Ending Crystal to its fullest.

Leaving that aside, Har put away the second collectible from him, that is, he put the bottle with Lilith in the inventory and took out the Shinigami sphere.

"First, let's find the bastard who's causing trouble in South America.

The heavy Shinigami sphere, which at first had to work with all his might to steal it, was now held by Har with one hand, holding this thing is like holding the world in his palm, Har's vision moved inside the sphere at incredible speed going from seeing himself inside to reaching northern Mexico in less than a minute.

"It will be more complicated than I thought."

Har said this by noticing something important, not only were portals opened where demon lords appear, but all the way he could see demons destroying and killing without worry.

No matter if he kills or captures the demon lords, these little fry are like a plague that has perished throughout the world, so getting rid of all of them is too troublesome.

Be that as it may, the main focus at the moment is the greater remaining power of the demons, so he continued deep into the countries of America in search of the demon lord that Lilith spoke of.

For a while he could only see small demons, he investigated all of Mexico in an hour thanks to his high intelligence, which allows him to analyze the situation quickly like a super computer, then he went to Guatemala, but he did not find the demon lord.

When the sun began to shine from the east, Har finally found him, a massive amount of demons surrounded the sky around a cathedral forming a cloak of darkness, in the center of all, a red-skinned demon, with four horns on his head. head and four large wings on its back.

Har knew immediately that this must be the demon lord, he could even see him turn his head in confusion as if he noticed someone watching him, but it's impossible for him to find Har.

Regarding the place where these guys are about to cause trouble, Har remembers it from his past life, this is the Cathedral of San Salvador, or using his full name, the Metropolitan Cathedral of the Divine Savior of the World.

Har knows her from the problems that he has endured throughout his history, regarding his location, he is more than 2,000 miles from this place.

Because of this, he spread his wings and left immediately, it will take a while before he reaches El Salvador in Central America, so he must act as soon as possible.

Keeping an eye on the demon lord in the Shinigami sphere to follow any of his movements, in addition to perhaps receiving important information, Har suddenly disappeared with a burst of violet particles.
