Chapter 388: CH. 399: The Decree
Sirzechs's devastating punch shook Asahi's very form. He might have died if he wasn't in his elemental form. In his elemental form, he could heal injuries with his mana.
Rizevim stared in shock as his former opponent was wiped from existence.
'This fucker is stronger than Biblical God.'
This was his cue to create a teleportation circle and flee as far away as possible, but...
"Don't even think about it."
The silver-haired maid kept her stern eyes on him. Besides the maid, several other powerful women were watching over him. If that wasn't enough, Lilith also arrived at full speed.
"Rizevim, I didn't expect this from you…" Lilith sighed, disappointment written on her beautiful face. "What enmity did you have with those men? Why did you assassinate them? Why?"
Rizevim was blown away by his mother's acting skills. She asked him to carry out those assassinations, now she acted as if those deaths hurt her soul.
The devils from Bael Factions glared at Rizevim. If Lilith and Grayfia weren't present, Rizevim would be ripped to pieces at their hands.
"What a vile woman…" Rizevim said with a grin on his face. "That's why I love you, Lilith. You're the evil this world needs. The perfect devil. Sadly, you love that douche of a man."
No matter what Lilith did, Rizevim couldn't hate her. She was his only weakness, and she seemed to be well aware of it.
"Rizevim, you will be—"
"He will die," Asahi interrupted Lilith as he materialized from flames.
Rizevim was going to become a massive pain in the ass if he wasn't dealt with. Asahi didn't have the patience to keep an eye on a Super Devil like him.
"Oi, oi!" Rizevim shouted. "Not so harsh, man. How about you forgive me with a slap on the wrist?"
Even when faced with the threat of death, Rizevim didn't get serious. He was still hoping Lilith would save him. She was his mother, after all.
"I hate you for ruining my life…" Lilith said, looking dead into Asahi's eyes. "But I agree with you on this. Rizevim Livan Lucifer, I hereby declare you to be executed for your crimes against the Bael, Gremory, Valefor, and the Sitri Family."
Asahi grabbed Rizevim's throat. "I'll do the dirty work, thank you."
Rizevim's skin burned under Asahi's hands. He unleashed his aura in the form of a kinetic blast. Lilith was blown away, but Grayfia held her ground. Asahi, too, kept squeezing Rizevim's neck, a feral grin on his face.
"Pass on knowing that your beloved mother played you like a fool."
No one but Rizevim heard Asahi's whisper. His eyes widened with a surge of anger. However, it was all too late. A bit more force from Asahi's side, and the neck in the grasp on his fingers snapped. Flames sparked from the tip of Asahi's fingers and engulfed Rizevim. Even with a broken neck, Rizevim pushed out his demonic aura to protect himself. Alas, the flames of an elemental devoured everything, including his flesh.
The High-class, Ultimate-class, and even the Devil Kings could only stare in horror. The son of Lucifer, in possession of greater power than all the devils, was killed so effortlessly.
Asahi slowly turned to the gathered masses and narrowed his eyes like a predator. "I'm declaring war on the Underworld as the Ruler of Heaven. Step out and stop me from claiming this place if you have the guts."
He declared war while the terror of his strength was fresh. Nobody had the power or even the courage to stop him from seizing the Underworld.
Of course, no one had the guts to even speak except for one man.
"You killed Sirzechs…"
Ajuka Beelzebub's very body shook from anger. Before he spoke any further, Aimi appeared behind him and slashed his wings. With the death of his friend clouding his thoughts, he couldn't evade every nifty slash. His wings bled, forcing him to rely on his demonic power to keep himself afloat.
Saeko sheathed her katana and created a connection with her Diva. "Asmodeus, grant my wish… Near Death Roulette."
Ajuka felt a swell of energy from the violet-haired swordswoman. A scythe with blades protruding from both sides appeared in Saeko's hands. Saeko drew near unnoticed like a death god and cut Ajuka with a spin of the scythe.
Ajuka grimaced and materialized near hundred magic circles. The scythe was directly imbued with a Diva power. Without knowing the basics of a Diva power, the Kankara formula failed in countering the scythe.
The first attack robbed Ajuka of his sight.
Saeko grinned sadistically, showing no signs of stopping. With another swing, she took Ajuka's ability to hear anything.
Ajuka kept his composure even in this situation and drew back. Saeko chased him down, seemingly more happy to see her 'prey' struggle, and slashed him yet again. With two more attacks, Ajuka's five senses vanished. He experienced a state no better than death.
The effects were temporary, however.
Saeko spun the scythe while looking down at the devils. "Last one will incapacitate him."
Just as Saeko was about to deal the final blow, she sensed a stream of demonic power coming her way.
"Stoooooooop!"

A/N: Some readers were asking about Rias' inclusion in the 'harem'. That'd be no. But hey, never say never. Also, I have no plans of continuing DxD until canon. It's still like a 500 years gap lol. The next world will be OPM. Currently rereading the manga for that.
