Chapter 262: C254
Could it be that Mephisto was trying to shift trouble elsewhere?
No, Mephisto wasn't that foolish.
Leon's suspicions were confirmed with Mephisto's next words.
"In the limbo of Hell," Mephisto began, "there's a ruler named Belasco. He's a dark wizard, and within Limbo, his power rivals that of any Heavenly Father—even me."
Leon regarded him with a sly smile. "So, you've considered this Limbo before?"
Mephisto nodded, sighing helplessly. "Anyone who discovers that place covets it. But everyone—myself included—has been repelled by Belasco. If he truly intends to fight, the consequences are too dire for anyone to bear."
In his domain, Belasco could match any intruder blow for blow, and if pushed, he would take them down with him. Mephisto, ever cautious, had no intention of testing those limits.
But Leon was different. Mephisto had witnessed his unsettling ability to sever the blessings of domains entirely. If Leon desired, he could likely claim Limbo for himself.
There was no denying it—Mephisto had grown wary of Leon.
