Devil Slave (Satan system)

Slowly, Lenny pushed into the domain. It gave a feeling akin to diving into water.

yet, he discovered that he could breathe within it. Also, it was not uncomfortable to his eyes. Except the feel to his skin, the weightlessness and the knowledge that he was in water, he might as well have been on land.

however, the moment lenny had entered the Domain, a figure deep within opened its eyes.

lenny on the other hand, looked around, as if to explore his environment. Subconsciously, he checked the entrance he had used into the domain.

Just as he had thought, he could not go out the same way that he had come in. This was obviously a rule with this domain.

Nevertheless, he did not mind. advancing forward, he swarm deeper.

Lenny came across devils within this oceanic domain. Their bodies were not like the other devils. Instead, their bodies were made for swimming, possessing gills, web feet and overall, parts made to fit the water environment.

However, even though he was very vigilante of his environment, none of them attacked him. instead, they just past by him as if he was an insignificant figure.

lenny was indeed surprised by this, but he still did not let down his guard.

he continued to swim even deeper. He had a direction in mind, and thus moved that way.

After some time, he had arrived as he wished.

"Why do you do it!?" A voice suddenly asked.

This voice, it reverberated through the water, but from the look of other devils still going about their activities, he was the only one that had heard it.

"Why do you not leave? is it your sentimentality with this dying plane that limits your mind to the exploration of the other parts of the world?" The voice spoke again.

And instantly, Lenny understood two things. Firstly, this Devil Boss seemed to be much smarter than the rest after all, it had not come fist swinging at him. Secondly, it was more conscious about Lenny.

Then again, this was normal since Lenny had successfully eliminated two devil Bosses, regardless of the vast gap in strength between them.

"What do you mean?" Lenny asked back.

"Oh! it would seem you are not aware."

"Aware of what?"

"Your world, this plane... its dying!" The voice spoke in a sad undertone.

"So I have heard. i have also heard that we have you devils to thank for that. Or is that not so?"

The voice chuckled a bit, "not bad! so now, you are pushing the blame on devils....HAHAHA!!! I don’t blame you. After all, we come from Hell so therefore we are the bad guys. but believe it or not, we are not. We may be a people of chaos, but that is what we do. We destroy or consume whole, not... slowly drain."

For a second, Lenny thought of those words. After all, he had Chaos magic, and it was true, that chaos magic was not the kind that was slow at doing anything at all.

In fact, that was quite the opposite.

It made Lenny actually think about what the devil was saying more critically.

"You free moving creatures, are killing it steadily, draining its life over hundreds of years for your attempt at destroying the gates that keep the Primary plane imprisoned."

Those words sparked an old memory in Lenny’s head. He could not put a finger on it, but he could tell that whatsoever it was that this Devil was saying was knowledge that was significant to his person.

"Because of your drain, the Plane has decided to close its walls to the outside world because of fear, and now, no one can get in or out even if we want to. i can understand we Devils and the terrible nature we have that makes us feed so much, but what reasondo you lots have to destroy your own home?"

Lenny could not help but raise a brow at those words. "What do you mean? How are we destroying the plane?"

"Hmmm! you are really ignorant aren’t you? Even we in our Dungeons can feel it. Your life draining machine, with its muzzle pointed directly at the locks of Purgatory, the prison to those winged ones that fell of paradise.

Only Holy power can break through the nine seals, and although not of that level, Planes, created by the One Above All, have life in them that is similar to Holy Power. One can say that it is a lower grade of it. But having so much of it from a plane is indeed possible to break the locks over a long period of time."

This words were indeed news to Lenny. The most surprising thing was the fact that he was hearing it from a devil. Lenny thought back to the happenings within the sub-plane.

the people were suffering from a lack of food, and praying to the earth only yielded less and less food every year.

And now, he was hearing that it was all because someone out there was draining the life of the Plane Celessera and using it as a needle to pick the lock around Purgatory.

Surely, such a person must know that the fallen Angels were within.

But why did the person want to do something so brazen? At the same time, Lenny could not help but think of the kind of power and resources that such a person would possess.

In the very least, the person would have to have access to the resources of the Royal demon families or at least one family.

Yet again, another question popped up in Lenny’s head. Did this mean that this person was a member of the Royal Demon Family?

But that should not be right. Demons and Angels, even fallen Angels were not friends.

Lenny believed that he might have just stumbled upon secrets and answers to a lot of questions that people had in the Subplane.

"It truly seem like you do not know a lot. Especially when you have it. After all, you are the Key." The Devil Boss added.
