Long ago….
At the time of Virtual World Re:Life was still in a period of High-Level Acceleration....
The Underworld….
There was a Demon Queen who controlled almost two-thirds of the territory in the Underworld. He was the one closest to the title of Demon Emperor and Demon Goddess.
Asmodeus.
...***...
...First Part...
...[.Birth Asmodeus]...
Asmodeus was created as a Primordial Vampire. The first vampire in the world to have a complex AI.
There are many vampires who are monsters. But monsters only have low intelligence and can't think but hunt down anyone who approaches them.
But it was different from an NPC like Asmodeus. It was created in this world with a very clear main purpose.
It controls the entire Underworld. After that…. Open a world gap or World Rift to rule the Human World.
His appearance at the moment is very simple. She looked like an 8-year-old girl in a plain black dress.
Her beautiful blonde hair was only able to decorate up to her shoulders. Let alone guns, he doesn't even have footwear.
Amidst the vastness of the plains where He was created, only one thing came to his mind.
“I need strength...”.
Asmodeus walked through this world. Hunting monsters start from the weakest monster, slime.
Sometimes he finds monsters that cannot be eliminated. It was only natural that the NPC did not understand the concept of Respawn. But with his high-level artificial intelligence, Asmodeus is able to understand one thing.
“If I keep hunting them...”.
One yr….
Ten years….
Hundred years….
Time keeps passing….
But what he did never changed. Asmodeus continuously lived alone while hunting down monsters that existed in the Underworld, completing Dungeons, even finding Hidden Dungeons that held ancient powers.
Until finally he realized it after returning to the starting point of his emergence in this world.
His body had been far developed compared to the beginning of his appearance. She looks like a 16 year old girl. Although, his actual lifespan had reached hundreds of years more.
“City?” He spoke briefly while looking at the large city before him.
He immediately set foot and entered the city. Everyone who saw his figure shook with fear, not even a few who ran away in a storm because they were overcome with fear. It was only natural for Asmodeus to have such an enormous power right now.
NPCs do not have a system that supports them to see status. But they understood it by looking at the aura as well as the appearance of a person.
When viewed using the Genesis system, then the status of Asmodeus is at a level of more than 500 with a total Growth Point reaching 300. Not only armed with power without techniques, Asmodeus also has a myriad of Unique and Legendary level Magic and Skills.
All that He gained while traveling throughout the Underworld and conquering various Dungeons.
Even Asmodeus managed to find Apocalypse-level magic. A level that is far above Legendary.
Re:Life developers have prepared various Hidden Dungeons and prizes in the form of high-level skills for the Player. But it also did not prevent the NPC from finding him.
Just like Asmodeus.
By completing Hidden Dungeon and killing one of the strongest bosses in the game, Devourer of World, Asmodeus obtained an Apocalypse [World Devourer] level Skill. Even so, he never used it.
That was because the strength of the Skill was too large to be able to destroy the world.
Of course, this is against its main purpose. To rule the Underworld.
While Asmodeus was still making his way to the center of the city, someone appeared to be blocking his path.
“Ka-you! Who are you?!” Shouted a man with complete armor in shiny black and a golden crown on his head.
“This place is my birthplace…. If you don't want to die…. Go from here..” Asmodeus said without even looking at the Man's face.
Hearing Asmodeus' words, the man who was a Demon King could not accept it. He immediately pulled out a giant axe that was on his back.
He steered the axe while talking to Asmodeus, not knowing what he was facing.
“Build…. How dare you against me! The Demon King yes...”.
‘Duaaarrr!!!’
It sounded like a loud object hitting the ground. Unnoticed by anyone, the Demon King's head had already hit the ground.
“Falling Star Asmodeus spoke briefly as he raised both his arms to face the sky.
Instantly a gigantic magic circle appeared from the sky. Its size far exceeds that of the city. The entire town that saw him could only fall limp on the ground. Including the Demon King who had not even introduced his name.
“Ti-impossible..” Said one of the guards who was beginning to lose his entire life expectancy.
Behind the large magic circle, there was a very bright light. Light from a star.
Asmodeus who had defeated the weakness of his race against the light just stood quietly watching this scene.
“You will all burn here...” Say Asmodeus even without a shred of expression.
But above all, there was something even beyond his expectations. A small hand holding a beautiful black dress worn by Asmodeus. A little girl with gray hair.
He seems to come from the race Halfing so that makes his appearance is not so resembling a demon. More like a human.
“Please…. Forgive me…. What's my fault?” Said the little girl crying.
It was then that Asmodeus recalled the moments of his birth in this world. It looks like he saw himself in the past. The figure of a helpless girl. At that moment….
“If I save you…. Are you going to serve me?” Asmodeus asked with a face with no expression at all. It was as if he had no interest in the fate of the little girl before him.
“Yes! I will do all your orders! I will serve you! But I beg you..” Shouted the girl while crying.
“Good. Get close to here.” Brief reply Asmodeus. He immediately spread his wings. It enveloped the little girl's body with wings that looked like those of a bat in front of her.
The next thing that happened was despair.
The magic circle that revealed the light from the star started to enlarge. It was as if he wanted to drop the star himself. Even so, the size of the star that was too large was unable to pass through the magic circle. But that didn't stop his enormous destructive power.
The light that looked so bright that it blinded anyone who opened his eyes at that moment. While the extreme heat energy is able to melt anything that is near it.
Everything's shattered….
Everything burned to the point of melting….
Even including the body of Asmodeus who just silently enjoyed the sight.
If translated using the system, then the following notification should appear in front of Asmodeus. Of course Asmodeus and the other NPCs could not figure this out.
[You have received 119,453 damage!]
[Ultimate Barrier has reduced the impact received by 95%]
[You have received …. ]
It all happens every half second. While the duration of magic launched by Asmodeus only lasted for 6 seconds before the magic circle itself was destroyed. That was because his magic circle was unable to withstand the power of the star itself.
Everything was smashed.
Buildings….
The inhabitants….
Even the Demon King….
The scenery around is only the ground that is burned to the point of being destroyed. There are no remnants of civilization at all in this place.
Including the body of Asmodeus who looks reddened because of the extraordinary heat. Even his strong-looking wings seemed to be torn in some parts.
Even so, the little girl who was under his protection did not appear to suffer even a single small scratch. He didn't seem to be hurt at all.
“Now I will collect the promise you made. You'll serve me, right?” Asmodeus asked after protecting her.
“I will keep my promise…. Besides, I've been saved…. ” Say the little girl in a soft voice.
“Before that, what's your name?”
“I was just a slave in that city…. I can't afford a fancy thing like the name.” Reply to the little girl while whining in Asmodeus' body. As if remembering his time of suffering.
“Elizabeth…. From now on, that's your name.” Asmodeus said as he stroked the little girl's head.
Hearing Asmodeus' words, the little girl could only cry. But now, crying because it was filled with happiness.
“Ascension…. Vampirize...”.
It was at this time that Asmodeus sacrificed some of his power to make Elizabeth his right hand. A very powerful Vampire. The second vampire in the Underworld.
