Ataraxia Abyss
Chapter 36: The Devil

As Lilith turned her gaze around, Regal quickly raised a demonic hand on one of the pillars, the hand smashed the chain of her right hand, Regal quickly swung the chain right away until it hit the other chain and made it come loose.

"Have you forgotten? I'm also a Devil!!"

———

Lilith and the Devils who used to torture Regal couldn't believe what was happening right now. A human wearing magic using negative Mana. For them it was impossible, but Regal was a man who was willing to sacrifice anything to learn new things. That's what makes it so powerful...

"Fuck!" When the Demon Torture was about to pounce on Regal, Regal quickly swung the chain, and with his swinging power Regal made the Devil's jaw drop from his face.

Lilith who saw that immediately prepared, Regal then took out a spear from the pile of torture tools that Devils used to torture him.

"This fight will mean nothing, son! We're in hell, none of us are gonna die!" Regal quickly healed the wounds all over his body and replied. "I don't need to kill you to defeat you!"

Regal quickly darted and was in front of Lilith, Lilith then retreated backwards and flew with her wings. While flying away, he fired many fireballs at Regal. But the fireballs were all thrown away and exploded away from where Regal was. When Lilith was startled, Regal quickly jumped up and chased after Lilith, seeing that Lilith was trying to make another attack, but Regal quickly hit Lilith's hand until her magic was shot upwards.

Regal then held onto Lilith's horn while attacking and defending, until they both fell on a bridge over the lava. Lilith who had her head bumped just realized that one of her wings had disappeared, and it turned out that Regal was already holding the wing, and Regal expressionlessly threw the two wings into the lava.

"Last chance son, did you join or not?" Regal then walked over while holding his spear. "My answer is still no!" Regal disappeared again, but when he appeared, Lilith saw that he had changed using Foul Legacy. Lilith then grew her new wings while dodging Regal's attacks.

Although it cannot fly far, but it can still be used to dodge. But Lilith began to realize that she was being cornered, Regal as a Warrior certainly can benefit when shortening the distance, but with Foul Legacy she can continue to shorten the distance at any time.

Lilith who realized this instantly created an illusion where Regal could not see anything, but how shocked Lilith was when Regal could continuously hit her.

"How can you?!" As Lilith was perplexed as to why she could see even when her eyes were closed, Regal looked to the future using her Mystic Eye of Fate instead of looking at Lilith directly. Lilith was cornered until she finally tried to fly, but Regal quickly went ahead of her and kicked her down and smashed the bridge.

They both fell in the rubble of the bridge that was now floating on the lava, Lilith's hand was broken but she quickly healed him using magic.

"With this power you want to defeat Adrian? Believe me, the old man can flatten heaven and hell if he wants to. His strength is not something I admire, but his patience gives you a chance..."

The spear that Regal was wearing now started to emit fire, the spear turned extremely hot and the spear changed shape, Lilith who saw the spear instantly realized the shape of the spear with just a single look.

"That?! Adrian's spear?!!" Regal put up the same horses as Adrian. "I'll practice it directly if you still don't understand..." As Regal got ready, Lilith turned into her original Devil form, her body turning pale with a thorny twig tattoo emerging from Lilith's left eye.

———

Regal continuously searched for gaps using his instincts and eyes, but Lilith actually attacked blindly. Until finally Regal was cornered and thrown due to the explosion of magic belonging to Lilith. And as he tried to stand up, he could see Lilith firing hundreds of magic projectiles at him. The entire area was covered with smoke at that moment, until Lilith finally saw a blue light flying from behind the curtain of smoke.

Convinced that it was Regal, he finally put out all his abilities to defeat Regal. But when he fired his magic, he could see that it was not Regal... It was just his spear that was thrown so fiercely with Mana Burst that it made it look like Regal was crashing.

And as the spear bounced, Regal caught the spear and lunged very quickly. Lilith who knew she could neither dodge nor counterattack finally tried to hold her back using her wings, but with her strength and speed Regal was able to pierce through the diamond-hard Succubus wings. Lilith was stabbed in the stomach and vomited blood until finally Lilith and Regal continued to accelerate until they crashed into the ceiling of the seventh floor.

As Regal was about to split Lilith's body in half, he clasped Succubus' head and threw it back at the highest bridge on the 7th floor,Regal then throws his spear until Lilith and her spear smash bridge after bridge.

Regal then stood on top of the debris that had fallen into the sea of lava. There he saw Lilith whose upper body was left dead, it was only a matter of time for Lilith to recover and come back to life, and Regal already knew what to do with her.

———

I don't know how long it has been, but Lilith is currently waking up on a rock. His hands and feet were bound and he couldn't do anything, and somehow he couldn't activate any magic at the moment.

"I unplugged your magic circuit before you realized, believe it or not I'm a good doctor..." Regal stood on top of Lilith who was currently unable to do anything. "Look let go of me!!" Regal jumped up and stood in front of Lilith.

"I want to, but on one condition. You seem to know more about my parents, or more than Adrian...

I need you to tell me what really happened. And the pay is your freedom..." Lilith then looked at Regal with a look of hatred and said. "I'd rather be eating a dog than following a boy like you!!"

Hearing that Regal immediately threw a stone. The stone then fell but did not hit Lilith, the stone fell and made what was behind the stone come out, a bat-like creature with sharp claws and fangs,they all came out from behind the stone.

"That's Hellbat. They thirst for the blood of sinners living in hell, and guess what? I think between the two of us, we know which is more sinful..." The red bat creatures gnawed and ate Lilith's body alive.

The screams mixed with Lilith's screams made a sinister voice that echoed throughout hell. Regal only saw it while waiting for the Hellbats to finish eating, and when Lilith's body left only some flesh and bones, the Hellbats looked towards Regal. But the Hellbats knew that it was not a good idea to fight Regal. They fly back to their nest.

And after a while Lilith's body recovered, Regal then approached her and asked. "Do you want to talk?" Lilith's face begged for mercy but she did not say that she wanted to talk, Regal ended up whistling and the Hellbats went back to eating Lilith alive.

And when Lilith recovered, Lilith immediately pleaded with a face of despair. "I beg you! I'll tell you everything! Don't let me get eaten again!!" Regal shook his head and said to Lilith.

"You're so stupid, miss... But I appreciate your kindness." Regal then called out to the Hellbats again. Lilith who saw him was obviously angry with Regal and asked. "I'll give you what you want you son of a bitch!! Why are you calling them again?!" Regal then looked at Lilith's face, and somehow Lilith felt like nostalgia.

"It's a punishment for your stupidity..." True, Lilith also heard that when Gerald was her superior. Although not strong with his pain, but he was happy to hear the voice he had long forgotten, the voice of the Master he used to serve...
