"Seriously?" Huo Yuhao was speechless. He couldn't help but smile when listening to Evo's notification because he hadn't done something grand to acquire this title.
Huo Yuhao saved Tequila Wolf, but that was out of Raikou and Robin's requests. He went to One Piece for Nico Robin only, after all.
"C-Can you put me down?" Robin whispered in his ears.
"Sure." Huo Yuhao put the black-haired beauty to the ground, letting her see the scenery around them. Robin was honestly surprised because this place was completely unknown territory to her.
Robin watched the red sky with a complicated gaze as the world she knew had a blue sky. Just how vast is this universe?
The atmosphere of this place is also cozier than she expected, having a warm and fresh environment to live in, which probably happened this way because she escaped the Tequila Wolf's winter.
"Yuhao-sama, where are you going this whole time?" Grayfia walked out of the magic circle. She has a worried expression plastered on her beautiful face.
"Hmm??"
She looked at Robin and Raikou, "These women are?"
"Hi, Fia. Oh, they are our new companions. Let me introduce you to Minamoto no Raikou and Nico Robin." Huo Yuhao smiled and responded casually.
"Robin, Raikou-san. This beautiful woman is my maid, Grayfia Lucifuge."
Unknown to Huo Yuhao, the three women stared at each other with a meticulous gaze. They are observing their future competitor.
The Battlefield of Women is rough when your target brings new competitors like nothing every day.
Grayfia sighed inside because the cult Qianye Ying'er created in the last two days had grown tremendously, gaining members who loyally obeyed her teachings without question. The maid doesn't want to admit it, but Qianye Ying'er has bribed her with some photos of Huo Yuhao.
She let out a small sigh and said, "Nice to meet you two."
"Likewise." Raikou smiled politely, feeling this silver-haired woman was way closer to her honey. Should she wear a maid outfit too?
Robin is the only one who can't feel the mental fight between the devil and demonic women. She could only sense the heated spark, but everything beyond that was impossible because her spiritual sense was weaker than Grayfia and Raikou.
'How strong...' Robin clenched her fist, reimagining the fight between Kizaru and Raikou half an hour ago. It was still fresh in her mind as she couldn't do anything before the yellow-suited admiral.
"Haa..."
Robin cleared her throat and mumbled, "I only have one year and nine months left. After that, the crew would return and gather in Saobody."
"Until that time, I'll train myself to the utmost limit."
"Good, because my Shishou will welcome people like you." Huo Yuhao suddenly said while patting Robin's shoulder. "Well, that's for another day, Nico Robin-san~! Now you have to rest and recover your mental state."
"Fia, bring Robin to the guest room. I'll go to the meeting room with Raikou-san."
Grayfia nodded and replied, "Okay, Yuhao-sama."
"Eh-?" Robin was struck on the back of her neck by Grayfia. She fainted on the spot, but the silver-haired maid immediately caught her and walked away to the magic circle, disappearing into nothingness.
"Oh, pure magic still exists in this world? How amazing." Raikou squinted her eyes when observing Grayfia's magic circle.
Huo Yuhao chuckled and answered, "You can call it that way."
...
...
Huo Yuhao looked at the tall wooden door and stepped into the room with a long table. Eighty-five seats for each Devil Clan and Satans remained alongside the table, excluding the Supreme Leader one for him.
He sat on the highest authority and said, "Let's start."
"YES, GOETIA-SAMA!" Everyone in the room responded immediately.
Ajuka Beelzebub shared knowledge about the Realm of the Dead with everyone. It's also related to Hades, one of the three major gods from Olympus.
Huo Yuhao quickly skimmed the report and was slightly amused because conquering the so-called Realm of the Dead won't be a bland activity for the next few days.
Flipping through the documents, Huo Yuhao also discovered that some grim reapers(Hades's subordinate) had been trying to find out about his information.
Anything related to him also spreads at an alarming rate to all factions in Draconic Deus's world, starting from the God's group like Norse, Greek, Hindu, Celtic, Egyptian, and Persian. His existence is such a threat to them.
It's better this way. Huo Yuhao doesn't have to waste his energy on luring them into his scheme anymore. They would split into three groups, the Spectator, Peacemaker, and Aggressor.
Peacemakers will try their best to make no conflict with him. They are a group of bootlickers.
Aggressor clearly doesn't like his conquering feats. Jealous or heavily-justice kind of people.
And Spectator will watch, waiting for the result and pouncing on the winner that benefits them. They are a group of the most disgusting and wise-minded individuals.
"Oh?" An article caught Huo Yuhao's attention.
"A rumor of a reincarnated devil that doesn't use Devil Piece appeared in the human world, specifically the middle east, Africa, China, and Southeast Asia."
"Is this confirmed?" He glanced at Ajuka.
"Yes." Ajuka nodded solemnly, causing the clan heads and devil kings to mutter in disbelief. "We have caught them all, but they kept appearing out of nowhere in greater numbers. Not to mention all of these devils are mindless and seem to possess child-like intelligence."
"As if they are just born into this world..."
"Where are they?" Huo Yuhao frowned when hearing Ajuka's last statement.
Roygun Belphegor raised her hand and suddenly responded, "If I may answer, Goetia-sama."
"Go ahead." Huo Yuhao moved his gaze to her.
Roygun cleared her throat with a cough and replied, "All the unknown reincarnated devils were under Guardian's control. We attempted to fix them and gained some information regarding their unknown origin."
"However, what we gain so far is only."
"Mother, Dark, Obedience. "
"Just three words."
"Even when we used a harder method, nothing changed with those three words kept being repeated by them." She finished, which left Huo Yuhao mute for a moment.
"I see... Can you bring one of them here? I might be able to see something beyond normal interrogation." Huo Yuhao said naturally.
Roygun flicked her wrist and drew a magic circle, whispering something in the air as a portal appeared behind her. One of the Guardian's members brought the devil here, and it was a female werewolf.
Huo Yuhao activated Genesis and the End's ability, seeing the origin of the female werewolf. He blinked a few times, allowing everyone to see his blue eyes had a golden tint that made them shiver.
They were waiting for Huo Yuhao to open his mouth but were alerted when he laughed like a madman.
"Haha..." A cold grin cracks on Huo Yuhao's face, reminding them of the cruel Devil God.
"That Hades Bastard."
"He thought he could meddle with the reincarnation cycle and recreate devil society with his authority over the Realm of the Dead. Fucking Karma will chase over his body and soul."
"Hades? He's connected to this?" Sirzechs asked calmly.
Serafall, Ajuka, and Falbium eyed their fellow satan in surprised light because they thought the red-haired Lucifer would be somewhat frantic at Huo Yuhao for disciplining his younger sister, but he kept calm.
Huo Yuhao told the Guardian Member to bring back the female werewolf and answered, "Hades... He tried to create Super Devil with the help of his power and Lilith, the mother of original devils."
"WHAT?!" They are shocked when hearing that.
Who's Lilith?
She's the mother of all devils, the ex-wife of Adam, who created the current devil society alongside the original Lucifer.
Everyone believed Lilith passed away after the great war, but hearing she was still alive under Hades's possession is crazy information.
Huo Yuhao saw everyone's reaction and added, "Hades used Lilith's body as an incubator to create new Super Devils with other races. The female werewolf was "actually." birthed through a complex method of birthing technique."
"She's on the verge of death after creating some of you, who were still alive after the Great War. I thought she passed away alongside Lucifer, but to think Hades will take her half-dead self and experiment to create a powerful army is beyond my understanding."
"I might be the Devil God in your eyes, but Hades? What scum he is." He laughed indifferently.
"Now we have one more reason to attack the Realm of the Dead."
"Hades could hide, but he would never escape from my grasp."
"So, WE SHALL ATTACK HADES, meaning Olympus will get dragged one way or another." He glared at his subordinate.
"Do you have a problem with my decision?"
"NO, DEVIL GOD-SAMA!" The devil responded well.
"WE SHALL ATTACK HADES AND TAKE MOTHER LILITH BACK!"
"Good." Huo Yuhao was satisfied with their replies.
[You have triggered a Quest]
[Name: The Audacity of Hades]
[Objective: Save Lilith and Kill Hades(0/2)]
[Reward: Ashborn's Spark(Brilliant Light), Gold Upgrading Ticket(1)]
[Penalty: The System will confiscate Ashborn Spark's Spirit Ring and abilities related to it for ten years]
[Time Limit: One Week]
[Do you want to accept the Quest?]
[Yes/No]
'What an annoying penalty...' Huo Yuhao thought while accepting the new Quest. 'Well, the stake makes it more challenging.'
He closed his eyes to run through several plans, calculating everything based on his knowledge about Hades. This guy will be the second god-like being he fought in this world.
"We will attack the Realm of the Dead in two days. There is no grand plan or tactic, just pure raw breakthrough." He suddenly said, causing a new wave of surprise.
"B-But, your majesty, isn't that too reckless?" Someone returned nervously. "We didn't know how much force Hades had."
Huo Yuhao shook his head gently and continued, "No, this is the best move we could execute. We will show the supernatural world that devil races aren't pussy. Grow some fucking bones, you boneless devil."
"Don't tell me you don't want to save Lilith? Your fucking ancestor..." His blue eyes focused on the devil, making everyone stare at the poor middle-aged devil.
"I-I..." The middle-aged devil lowered his head. "I will follow your majesty's order."
'Boo! Huo Yuhao is bullying this poor guy! Abuse of power!' Tian Meng commented from the spiritual seal, but Bing Di and Eluxia could see a wild grin on her face. This worm sure likes to dominate others.
Tian Meng's face and words don't match each other.
After telling everyone to prepare for the full-blown attack and probably declaration of war against Olympus, Huo Yuhao finished the meeting with some words.
"That's it. Have a nice day, everyone." Huo Yuhao walked out with Raikou.
"Good job," Raikou commented while hugging his arm, sandwiching it between her mountain valley.
Huo Yuhao coughed respectfully and returned, "Thanks, Raikou-san."
"Why don't we have a meal first?"
"Your majesty, Goetia-sama!" Someone suddenly called him.
It was Sirzechs Lucifer with his father, Zeoticus Gremory.
The redhead devils approached him with a solemn look.
"Do you need something?" Huo Yuhao questioned them, hoping this won't hinder him from getting a meal with Raikou.
Sirzechs breathed in and glanced at his father, seeing Zoeticus's slight nod at him. They suddenly lowered their bodies to a perfect reversed L shape.
"Thank you for saving and punishing Rias!!!" They said simultaneously.
"Huh?" Huo Yuhao was confused.
"What??"
Sirzechs opened his mouth and added, "We have been spoiling Rias since she was a child because of her talents and lineage. I might be a doting brother, but I hope she can grow more mature since the Kokabiel's incident."
Zeoticus sighed in relief and continued, "It's our fault for her to grow like this, but with your absolute authority, Rias will grow to be a better person and devil in the future."
"Once again, thank you, your majesty."
"..." Huo Yuhao.
"Okay..."
"You're welcome, I guess?"
"I'll have a meal, bye." Huo Yuhao told them to rise and walked away with Raikou.
"Please visit Gremory Mansion in the future, Goetia-sama!!" Sirzechs and Zeoticus shouted from the hallway, to which Huo Yuhao responded with a little nod.
Raikou giggled and commented, "They are funny."
"Yeah." Huo Yuhao let out a chuckle.
