Capítulo 25: Calamity Lord Galahad
It had now been almost three hundred years since the the rampage by the former hero now turned Demon Lord Galahad, and while the other Demon Lords had been making moves causing the world to indeed be aware of their presence, he himself had gone silent not even one rumor was passed around in those three hundred years, neither did anyone have the guts to do so. The Kingdom of Falmuth had returned to it's former glory because the battle was kept away from the capital....mostly. It was as if it was a simply a fairy tale however no one could deny that it actually happened, this was because of the complete change in landscape between the Great Forest of Jura and the Kingdom of Falmuth, it now had long deep ravines running across it in haphazard patterns.
One thing everyone no matter who heard the tale found weird was that he had fought against two of the True Dragons and the Demon Lords, there was no sign of him having any evil intentions after all that is what heroes do is it not? Slay the dragon and beat the Demon Lord? Though the fact that they were unable to defeat him and had to resort to sealing him way added to to his fame, now even if someone was to ask a child of the name Galahad he/she would know of it. In truth it was a ploy by Guy Crimson, with that much strength if his reputation as a Hero was firmly established there was a chance that either Rudra or the Angels would try to poach him as such Guy declared him a Demon Lord in order to prevent that and maintain the small bit of control he had over Galahad.
Other thing had happened as well, many many other monsters and demi humans had declared themselves as Demon Lords for the fame it brought, since the actual ones didn't really forbid it just that they had to earn that title, some tried to challenge Milim or Guy only to be ruthlessly killed off like flies, something standing a chance against them was pipe dream with the power they possessed. However, one other prominent individual had declared herself a Demon Lord and it was permitted as well, the Vampire Queen, Queen of Nightmares Demon Lord Luminous Valentine, though she wasn't a true one just possessed a seed and was one in name, she lived in and ruled the Vampire Kingdom, though she wanted to meet the Calamity Lord when any Walpurgis was held since he seemed interesting but he was never present, his seal was still in effect. The Sorcerer's Dynasty Sarion also officially declared itself quickly becoming one of the superpowers of this world due to their advanced mastery over magic.
What's more, the Kingdom of Falmuth was still under the Calamity Lord's protection, this was proven when someone tried to use his absence to their advantage and attacked it however the entire army was devastated by what the survivors described as: 'Two extremely beautiful girls in maid dresses, very similar to demons.' this meant that while Galahad was gone, Vert and Bleu chose to keep their Master's word to the King and still protected it. Though they missed him very much, his mansion was still maintained by the two them and they refused to give it over, well not like any one wanted Curtis had taught his successor to always respect that house's master and even he himself understood their Kingdom stood no chance against the two maids proven by the battle itself.
The Dragon Faithful after the incident had also come about effectively giving Milim a land of her own and their fighting prowess left no room for any argument. Ramiris had gone missing for some reason.
WITH GALAHAD,
Galahad sat? floated? cross legged with his arms folded and eyes closed, he nodded to himself and looked at his hand as an azure flame appeared in it, then a small ball of water, a small tornado, a small rock, lightning, a space distortion, ice etc, he closed it dissipating them. He sighed he didn't know how long it had been since he was sent here but it was more than a century he knew that much. He then closed his eyes and checked his magicule reserves and as predicted he was broken. The worst part was he was conscious during that time!
He was Nephalem he had noticed that, though he didn't have any of their creation or destruction or reality influencing powers nor could he control Aether or Nether energies but that was completely understandable, he was even more unnatural than an actual Nephalem this was because he had no biological parents, Nephalem gain most of their powers which are stronger versions of their parents' powers since he had none he couldn't have most of those. But it did come with it's advantages, he was limitless meaning in terms of potential growth he surpassed his kind by an immeasurable margin since no parents means no genes meaning no genetic limitations or anything, neither side being more he was the perfect harmonious hybrid of Holy and Evil.
Enough on that, he had also gained a God Series Ultimate skill much to his disbelief and surprise since a God Series Skill required the combination of a Virtue and a Sin series ultimate skill but then he remembered that Chloe was able to bypass that and simply obtain Space Time God Yog Sothoth because her two Hero seeds broke the system.
He had broken the system even more than her by combining two completely opposite seeds and while the risk of complete madness wasn't small, he was successful at it furthermore he didn't have many skills anyway. His Ultimate Skill was Ultimate Skill: Sloth God Tsathoggua . As for what it did? Sloth God Tsathoggua was basically Slothful King Belphegor on steroids amplifying it's effects more than a hundred times, stealing skills, corruption, power storage for later use, with absolute instant adaptation added in, it would technically allow him to adapt to literally anything, that was broken in itself.
That wasn't the end of it however because he somehow obtained an Origin Skill, he concluded this to be a World System Error combined with his own new potential, he did remember hearing something like error before rampaging. He yawned and tapped the silver cross on his ear, which turned into a sinister book in his left hand, Origin Skill: Nexus of Creation. It sucked in any and all magical knowledge from the reality he was in and registered all magics as sub-skills, they could be used/deployed without any sort of cost or requirement, truly broken but then again it was an Origin Skill.
Ritual magic? Requires sacrifices? Takes away your Sanity? Well not anymore! He had to pay no cost for it, while to some it may seem as weak for an Origin Skill but it had been born from his desires and those involved traveling to other worlds as well. Just imagine what would happen if he went to a world like Fate or Toaru, he chuckled at the thought. Galahad gazed around at the dark place and stood up? with a yawn, "I am...bored." yes it was boring! Who knew being sealed while conscious was boring?
Now one may ask why he didn't brute force his way through it if he was bored, that was because for all this time he had been mastering his newly obtained skills, just because he had them didn't mean he would be proficient at them oh his Ultimate and Origin Skills didn't require it, it was more of him mastering and learning to control all the power he had as a Nephalem, otherwise he may accidentally destroy this world scratch that this solar system with a flick, that was the might a fully matured Nephalem possessed. Furthermore, he could get stronger from the blood of angels and demons as well that meant that they would be having problems with their numbers when he got out, well the angels would only be in danger at the Tenma Wars but the demons well....he had no comment on that.
Deciding that it was enough he stretched his arms, "I guess it's time to...break out." he muttered as the book appeared again, it's pages flipped quickly before stopping, "Confirmed Sub-Skill: Space Magic: Sub-Type: Spatial Rending." a mechanized female voice announced as the book once more turned into a cross returning to it's place on his ear. Galahad's hand was covered in a purple hew which gave rise to claws at his finger tips. He stared at it a bit and slashed forward, causing cracks to spread around, he had to praise them for making an entire separate space but it would fall apart if someone used Space Magic, he chuckled not like there were many who could use it. He dismissed the magic and walked through the crack.
WITH VERT&BLEU,
Vert and Bleu were each doing their regular duties which involved cleaning the mansion and maintaining the lawn, their day was interrupted by a familiar aura in the room where they kept the object their Master had been sealed in. Both of them abandoned their duties and ran to it hoping for it, reaching the door at the same time they looked at reach other. Nodding they went through the door to come across a Galahad that was yawning and observing the room he was in.
He looked at them and scratched the back of his head, "Umm.....hi?" he said unsure of what he was supposed to do here. Both of them smiled brightly at him glad to have him back, Bleu cleaned her eyes, "Vert are you crying?" she asked the green haired maid beside her, "I-I'm not you are!" she shouted back wiping her eyes. "I-Idiot! That was because I was cutting up onions." it had been more than two hundred years! Of course they missed him a lot! Once more they started bickering ignoring Galahad.
BACK WITH GALAHAD,
Galahad slightly smiled at their interaction and patted both their heads ignoring their bickering, he too had missed them a lot, it was like meeting a long lost friend which you hadn't seen for a long time! "I missed... you guys too." he said lazily giving off the feeling that he didn't really mean it but those two were aware of his nature and knew that he did mean it. He dragged himself over to the dinner table since this place hadn't changed at all since he left and settled down on a chair, along the way the maids pinched each other to confirm it wasn't a dream while he observed everything around him. (A/N: I think they just got friend zoned)
All the while the two maids stared at him intently checking to see if he wouldn't disappear again but seeing that he wanted food they had a legendary match of rock paper scissors on who would go and Bleu walked away. Vert slowly walked towards him and bowed presenting a ring to him, he chuckled, "Oh you're...proposing?" he said lazily while resting his head on the table. Her normally emotionless face turned gained a blush and she placed it before furiously shaking her head in denial while backing off.
Galahad took it and looked at it closely, he instantly recognized it it was the Demon Lord's ring presumably sent by Guy fucking Crimson who sealed him away knowingly, and Galahad was too lazy for revenge but when an opportunity presents itself always take it or you're a dumbass. His lips twitched as he realized that his reputation as a Hero was gone and that in this era the Demon Lords had a lot of challengers, he was very annoyed by the fact that Guy was being a pain in the ass on purpose. He sat straight and tapped his finger on the table, "Vert Report." she nodded and started giving him a detailed explanation making him groan but he still listened on, this was basically unfamiliar territory for him since the past isn't explored that much in the LN or WN and anything could happen, if he knew details he could make plans and moving without a plan is plain idiocy.
Some may argue that he was too strong for such things to affect him but that was his nature and it saved a lot of time if he was prepared for stuff, the proof being the two hundred years he spent sealed in a separate space.
