Kapitel 2: Loyalty
///Lucifer castle garden///
Lars and Grayfia have been walking through the garden for at least half an hour, to get out of earshot of any other servants that could be in the garden.
"Why are you leaving the Royal faction Grayfia? Is it because you lost faith in the young princes and princess of the old Satan's? Or is it because you fell head over heels for the son of Gremory?" Lars asked his oldest friend.
"Lars...I am sorry, but I cannot ignore my feelings of disgust anymore that I feel for my family and the royal houses. My feelings for Sirzechs are true, unlike the so-called love that my family here gives me! The lord I serve doesn't care about me, or matter of fact, anyone! My brother only loves me as an object he can possess and own like a toy!" Grayfia shouted her feelings at her only friend in the Royal faction.
A silence befell the two of them, that lingered for a few minutes, before Lars broke through the silence.
"Grayfia I can't say that I can truly relate to what you have said, since I serve a different household then you do. But I can understand what you said about the royals, they are declining in quality, at least the grandchildren of the old lords. Lord Rizevem, I still hold in high regard, then again, I don't know I'm personally." Lars told his friend.
"Then why stay?" Asked Grayfia. "I promised Katerea's Mother, that her daughter would survive the civil war. I swore it upon my soul and family name." The male devil told his female friend.
"Are you insane!?" The grey-haired servant of house Lucifer shouted at him. "You know the consequences when you break your promise that you swore on your soul!"
"I know what will happen when I break the woe. But I am sure that she will survive this war." Lars said, confident in his abilities to protect Katerea. "I know that you are powerful, more powerful than me, But I don't think you will be able to win against the monsters that the anti-Satan faction leaders are." Grayfia responded with not so reassuring words.
"I am aware that the raw power difference between me and the likes of Sirzechs, Ajuka, Sera, Falbium and myself is quite large. But I can't let them reach Katerea. All that I am concerned about is, that I would break my promise to Princess Leviathan to protect her daughter. Or that Sera will never forgive me for choosing the other side." The last part, barely a whisper.
A comfortable silence befell the two of them.
"If you really want to go to the anti-Satan factions' side, I advise you to go now. I am pretty sure that the royals are going to worry about our location since the situation is very tense."
Grayfia was about to leave before the voice of her best friend cut her off. "Before you leave, I hope for the best for you and Sirzechs and if you see Sera tell her that I miss her company." Lars said with a smile before Grayfia left in a Magical circle.
Now that he was alone again, he allowed himself a long and dragged-out sigh, before he turned around, summoned his clan trait and teleported to the castle of lucifer.
//Castle of Lucifer//
When Lars appeared in front of the 4 royals and Euclid, the 5 seemed to be in distress. Euclid was to first to approach him. "Where is my sister!" He demanded, shacking Lars by the collar.
Lars looked at Euclid with a face of complete neutrality and answered with a tone that befitted is face. "She has left for the rebels." With those words Euclid punched Lars in the face leaving him to stagger backwards.
"Why did you no stop her!" He shouted at Lars, completely ignoring the fact that he was still in the presence of royalty and that he should behave as such.
"She had a teleportation circle already active when she told me." Lars lied through his teeth. His many years of serving the royal families had told him to always have a neutral tone of voice so no emotions could be discerned.
"You are incapable of doing your duty! I should execute you right this instant!" Euclid shouted with anger, while charging a bolt of demonic energy, ready to fire at Lars.
Before he could fire the bolt, he was hit by a pressurized stream of water in the side of his torso, sending him flying into the stone walls of the throne room of lucifer.
"You will do no such thing." The voice of the only female in the room cut him off. "A servant like you will not decide who dies and who doesn't."
"Katerea, that was not needed to send my only useful servant into the wall." The Son of lucifer said while standing up from his throne and headed for Lars.
The latter falling onto one knee, showing respect to the lucifer. "How much Chaos could you cause with that clan train of yours?" He asked Lars.
But before he could answer an explosion cut him off throwing ruble and chunks of the wall all over the room. "We are getting attacked" Said Katerea while summoning a barrier to protect herself from the ruble. The 2 other Satan descendance followed suit that stood next to her.
Lars following his duty and used his Clan train to protect Rizevem, who still did not seem to be bothered by the chaos around him. "You still have not answered my question." He asked Lars again eyes fixated onto him. His piercing eyes that radiated authority commanded him to answer.
"I could obliterate this palace if you so wished, to cover up your escape." Lars Said. For a short while silence befell the son of Lucifer. The explosions seemed to fade away as Lars waited for the answer of the one who truly held the power in the royal faction.
"Obliterate everything." He simply said, with a calm tone to his voice. The lucifer stood there for a moment and just stared at him in silence, everything was still exploding around them.
"Show them Oblivion my servant." Katerea added with a sadistic glint in her eyes.
Turning away from Lars and facing his most trusted servant. "Euclid, open a magic circle and get us out of here!" The most powerful devil currently commanded his servant, who obliged his master. The Silver Glow, of the Magic circle of the Extra devil house Lucifuge, the royals had left the area leaving only Lars and the servants of lord lucifer in the castle.
With no other word said, Lars used his black hole to teleport into the sky above the castle. The castle itself now burning from the many fire spells that were launched by the Anti-Satan factions Artillery team.
Raising his magical power to the absolute, he summoned his mutated clan trait. Separating the black mass into many different smaller versions that orbited him. Without moving, the ten miny black holes spread out over the castle grounds. Lars roes his right hand towards the sky. A black aura surrounded him, seemingly sucking in all the light, like the black holes he conjured.
With a single command, the ten miny black holes all grew in size. The bigger they got the more gravitational force they gained and the harder it got to escape the pull of the all-consuming black hole.
///Moments before///
'The siege has been going quite well. The walls of castle lucifer did not stand a chance against the combined might of the Anti-Satan faction.' Serafall thought, standing in front of the magic division of the Anti-Satan faction's army. As fireballs were launched behind her at the castle, all the artillery barrages were redirected into the sky and sucked up by a giant black hole.
There was only one devil in existence that could use a black hole and give it the properties of an actual black hole. Realizing who it was she quickly used a communication circle to contact her fellow generals.
"The magical battalion will be out of commission as long as Lars is allowed to have his black hole activated." She told her three friends. "I will deal with him." The smartest Devil in the Underworld said. "My Kankara Formula would be enough to combat his black hole." He added. "Please don't kill him." Serafall said sounding almost desperately. "Don't worry I won't. The green haired devil said, before ending his side of the communication circle.
"Don't worry Serafall, he knows how you feel about that devil. I am confident that he will not kill him." Sirzechs' reassured her.
It did not work...
///With Lars///
Lars' black holes kept sucking up chunks of the land, castle and the soldiers of the Anti-Satan faction. The screams of the men and women were abruptly cut of by the black vortex that devoured everything.
Suddenly all the 10 black holes disappeared simultaneously with a burst of demonic energy that came from a small object that was speeding towards him from afar. Looking closely, it was Ajuka Astaroth who was nullifying his clan trait using his Kankara Formula.
'Let's see how he handles this.' Lars thought as he raised his right hand towards the sky and used a summoning his clans magical circle channeling a large amount of magic.
After a few minutes of waiting, Ajuka had reached him. "Lars Abaddon, hailed strongest gravity magic wielder of the current generation." He greeted Lars while flying above him in the sky, 40 meters away from him.
"Where are the royals Abaddon?" Ajuka asked sternly. Only silence answered him.
"Will you come peacefully, come without a fuss and face judgment, or must I use force to subdue or even kill you? Even though I would like to avoid that for Sera's sake." He asked again muttering the last part under his breath.
Again, Lars only answered with silence, only the sound of their wings flapping could be heard.
"As much as I would like to see my lovely Sera again, I have a duty to fulfill that is of utmost priority. The Princes and Princess has wished for oblivion and that she shall receive." Lars said with an impassive face, that portrayed his indifference towards the devastation he will bring if he was not stopped. Only showing emotion, when he spoke of his love for Serafall.
Before Ajuka could say anything, a massive meteor appeared, out of a magic circle that Lars had conjured beforehand. It was invisible since its conjuration.
"When did you..."
Before Ajuka could finish his sentence, the giant meteor impacted him. He only getting pushed back only a couple of meters.
"As expected of one of the generals of the Anti-Satan Faction army, a meteor would not overwhelm you. But what will you do about the twenty others." He said while flying higher into the sky. A meteor shower came crashing down onto the territory of Lucifers castle devastating everything that was caught below them.
Dozens of Magical barriers where erected by the foot soldiers, trying desperately to survive this "godly" display of gravitational prowess.
Ajuka would use his Kankara Formula to redirect or outright 'delete' the meteors. Due to the sheer size of the bombardment, he could not use his Formula on all of them.
Lars floated above the devastation looking upon it with an impassive look on his sharp face. He slowly rose his magic and practically flaunted its overwhelming presence to the enemy. His right arm was stretched out before him.
His signature ability black hole was summoned above him, it being the largest he had ever created. He began closing his hand and slowly and taxingly balling into a fist, it taking a large tole on his body as he quite literally began gripping the space around the black hole behind him, slowly compressing it into a small ball of bright energy.
Now he took his left hand and put his palm behind his fist. His fist snapped open as the strain on his hand was lifted abruptly and the tension on the singularity behind him was lifted as his hand opened.
A bright beam was sent towards Ajuka but before it could land a crimson haired figure appeared before the green haired man and used his equally crimson to destroy the magical beam.
Being exhausted by the usage of his singularity Lars floated to the ground panting heavily due to magical and physical exhaustion. Before he could regain his stamina, he was surrounded by the 4 generals of the Anti-Satan factions and numerous soldiers all pointing swords, spears and magical circles at him ready to attack.
"For your support of the Royals you are herby in custody of the Anti-Satan faction, you shall be prosecuted, and your fate shall be decided upon." With these words said by Sirzechs he raised his and at him and ordered a capture division on his legion to use dimensional magic to store Lars in a form of prison realm. With that the war was over.
