Gods' Impact Online

[Who will become the next demon lord of the first hell? Usually, the one who defeated him would become one, so let me ask you… son of Deus. Would you sit on the Hell's Throne and become the next demon lord?]

"I will! If you let me kill Nirn."

[Don't reply without thinking or knowing full details. That's not the sign of a good warrior. Once you have sat on the throne, you can no longer leave the first hell. You will forever be stuck here.]

"...!"

[I will ask again, Son of Deus, would you sit on the Hell's Throne and become the next demon lord?]

"...no. I can't live here. Once I am done with my revenge, I will leave."

'Of course, I will try to meet mother and Asmo's mother, but that's not my priority. I believe that once I have defeated Nirn… no, who am I kidding? That's not the true reason I am here.

Life force is the most prominent source of power, as everything is derived from it. My blessings feed on my soul power, which I get from my followers. But there are other ways to increase the soul power— primarily used by the ancients.

Raw methods could be considered inhumane in today's era, and they are strictly forbidden. According to the secret council, they have considered crimes as they are against the law.

However, it doesn't matter if they don't know. I am here to take revenge, but my goal in coming here was to learn to control my demonic powers. The demon king's blessing not only feeds on my soul and life force, but it also takes control of my consciousness and existence.

I learned that happens because of my lack of relative source power. Just like how a disease enters a human body and the immune system fights against it, I need a dominant soul power source to counter against my demonic powers so I can keep my sanity.

I… am here to devour his soul. He is a demon king, and eating his soul would give me enough juice. It's not a permanent solution, but it's a solution nonetheless. But first… I need to get rid of… hell. I can't keep my sanity for long, and I truly don't want to assault Asmo, even if it's consensual.'

[You are wasting my time, boy. If you have no intention of becoming the next demon lord, then I have no choice but to defend the current one. You are useless to me unless you can present me as a worthy candidate for the hell's throne.

Hmm~ Wait, what about that girl? I have been watching her ever since she stepped into the first hell. She can make a fine demon queen. If you agree to my terms, I will remove the aphrodisiac effect from the air and let you enter the inner hell.]

"For what?" Zach furrowed his brows and uttered, "To chain her to the hell's throne and cage her in this hell? Her life is miserable as it is, and I am not going to make it more miserable for my selfish gain."

[What a shame. Your father would have agreed to my terms and sacrificed her for personal gain.]

"My father is not that type of person!"

[Them, sadly, you don't know him that well. You two are quite similar in more ways than you think. He was sassy and savage, just like you. His mouth was always sharper than his blade, and his remarks hit harder than his punches.

You even look a lot like him. In fact, I believe you can fool one of his wives into thinking he has returned. However, there is one difference between the two of you two. He was serious even when he was being comical.

He never let his guard down, even when he was with his loved ones. And most importantly, he was blinded by rage like you… actually, I take that back. I forgot he once tried to destroy three worlds in rage because of one small reason.

What I am trying to say is he would have sacrificed that girl if it meant for the greater good. Remember, no life is equal to more than one.]

"I am not going to sacrifice her!"

[Why is the girl so important to you? You met her two days ago. It is true that it's natural to fall in love with the opposite sex when you are traveling together, but she can't be that important to you. You can find—]

"She's my sister!"

[Oh! A discovery! How did I not know that? Well, I agree. Deus wouldn't have sacrificed his sister, but he would have pretended to, as you could have too.]

"...what?"

[You could have agreed on my terms and killed Nirn. And then break your promise. You could have fooled me.]

"That crossed my mind, but how was I supposed to leave hell without your permission? You need to open the door."

[Hmm~ So we don't have a deal. I gave you two chances, but you couldn't comply with either one. However, I may be hell, but I am not a monster. I will give you a third and last chance. Mate with that girl, and I will let you enter the inner hell,] the face said, forming a smirk on the lips.

"Did you not hear me when I said she is my sister?" 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝔀𝒆𝒃𝒏𝓸𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝙢

[I did, and that's precisely why I am asking you to mate with her. Look around you. Look what's inside the debris of the mountain you destroyed.]

Zach glanced at the remaining of mountains scattered all over the place and saw bones in them.

"...!"

[These are the remains of what once were the challengers. They all came here to kill the demon lord; some were here to seek justice, others were for revenge, and the rest were to become the new demon lord.

They weren't given any chances. Not a single one could survive. I say you are one lucky person who was given not one or two but three chances. Say yes and mate with the girl.]
