The moment Erika and Asmodeus touched down, the elite knights remaining behind to protect the concubine rushed at them, with spears and swords glinting with silver.
"Die monster!"
Shling!
"Argh!"
Erika's dual blades cleaved the heads of two knights, before kicking the third, who flew back and slammed into the concubine, sending her to her knees.
A look of fear tinged with disbelief appeared on Er'Gladia's face.
She trembled while looking at its figure.
A massive male with thick curled horns, long raven hair, and blue pupils wrapped in darkness. His emotionless eyes stared down at her like the devils in fairytales.
"What a fitting look, concubine." Asmodeus did not speak gently, or carry his previous form as if accepting his mother's death completely thanks to the trial. His demonic form evolved further, the raven hair identical to his mother, while his limbs were wrapped in the same exoskeleton, with the detailed runes of his mother Lilith now engraved into the armour.
