Chapter 141: Be My Guest, Feel Free to Kill him
Diodora was ecstatic. The arrival of the Maou Ajuka and Sirzechs was entirely within his expectations.
Of the six young Devils gathered here, four, including himself, were related to the current Four Great Satans. The other two were heirs to the Bael and Agares clans. This gathering represented the very cream of the crop of Devil society.
The Four Great Satans' presence was practically mandatory. And would a returning Old Maou like Baal dare to challenge them? Diodora knew Ajuka's power was ten times that of the previous Beelzebub.
Therefore, he reasoned, even the Progenitor Devil King Baal wouldn't risk fighting the current Maou by attacking him. All he had to do was mock Baal in front of Asia, showcasing his bravery.
It was a perfect plan. He could gain favor with the anti-Baal faction among the Devil elite and win Asia's heart.
Even if Baal disregarded his pride and attacked, or accepted his challenge to a duel, Diodora had a trump card—Ophis's power. He was confident he could at least escape.
And if it came to a duel, he doubted even Baal could withstand the combined might of over a thousand enhanced Devils, each empowered by Ophis to Ultimate-Class levels.
Even the Biblical God had been overwhelmed by the Devils' sheer numbers.
Diodora reached out to take Asia's hand, his eyes meeting Ajuka's—a silent request for approval.
Haru, observing the scene, a faint scent of "snake" emanating from Diodora, sneered.
He saw through Diodora's bravado. It was nothing more than borrowed power—Ophis's power. "I could crush him like an insect. Even Ajuka wouldn't risk the annihilation of the Devils just for this fool."
