Chapter 919: The Archdemon Of Lust, Lilith

-----

The entity that was lurking within the depths of the Elios Garden was nobody else than Lilith herself. Or well, one of her Incarnations, a Vessel of the Archdemon of Lust. Something she had been creating for the last five years in hopes of completely destroying everything Blake loved, and also to gain a large area to dominate.

She had learned that the best suitable vessels for her were not just another demon, but the monster plants of this world.

Using her powers and influence, she forcefully possessed a young plant monster named Hamadryad, Dryad-like plant creatures that held humanoid forms and some sort of intelligence, although they were still very aggressive. Why? Because it had the most affinity with her. Hamadryads utilize the power of pheromones they produce to control other plant monsters.

They're known as the Evil Queens of the Forest for assembling gigantic plant monster armies and then conquering countless miles of land with their armies, covering everything with plants and expanding their forest endlessly. However, due to the danger of their existences, most of them have been taken down, and they only remained as a myth.

Until Lilith found her, perhaps the last Hamadryad in the entire continent. Using her demonic powers, she mutated her and evolved her over many years, stealthily expanding the domain she created, while taking over thousands of plant monsters' wills, possessing them.

Unlike the other Archdemons, Lilith decided to not waste her resources pointlessly, and instead use what the world of Spiritias offered to her to begin with. And she was doing it so well she genuinely thought things would go her way, and one day, Blake would discover his entire village having been destroyed, and his family killed.

Yet, Lilith underestimated Blake's insightfulness way too much. Even after everything he had accomplished, she thought that he wouldn't be able to look at every nook and cranny to such detail! The Elios Garden was her domain, her queendom! And soon she would use the power of nature and her risen army to destroy it all.

But now…

"How… Just how were you able to know it was me?! How did you…?! I made sure to hide my presence. I made sure to never show any demonic energy…! Yet you somehow, you… YOOOUUU! ASMODEUS!" Lilith screamed, giving out a guttural roar.

Her gigantic plant-like form surged from underground, revealing her true appearance for everyone to see. She resembled a gorgeous woman made of green plants, leaves making her long hair, covered by countless carnivorous flowers of all colors. Her sharp crimson demonic eyes opened wide, showing fury.

Her forehead held a larger, vertical eye, of purple and black color, emanating a bright crimson light. From her hips to below, she was an amalgamation of thousands of plant monsters fused together, making up for twelve titanic tentacles made of wood and plants intertwined together.

Decorating her chest, there was a large growth of demonic crystals, fueling the rest of her body. It was most likely her Core!

"I honestly can't believe you ever thought this would work, Lilith." Blake told her. "We've slain Beelzebub and Satan's Vessels already… Did you ever thought we would miss one right below our noses? It might have been truly impressive if it actually worked, but it didn't. It would have never worked, Lilith!"

"GGRRRHHH…" Lilith gnashed her sharp teeth in frustration. "Shut up, there's still time! I'll make sure to destroy that village you love so much! Don't you ever think I don't have a few more trump cards left, Asmodeus!"

With a furious roar, Lilith raised her hands and channeled her demonic powers. Her roots warped around into gates, red lightning surging from within. Ripples in space started to slowly open. Erika, Elizabeth, and Eleanora gasped as they realized what was happening.

"Blake! She's trying to open a Demon Gate!" Eleanora cried.

"Not one, but many!" Elizabeth said.

"No way! So it was really an Archdemon Vessel?! Right below our damn noses this entire time?!" Erika cried.

"Calm down." Blake said.

The portals opened. Lilith's limit was ten portals. The demons poured out almost instantly. There were thousands of Lesser Demons, hundreds of Mid Rank Demons, and even almost fifty Demon Lords mixed in between them!

Among the Demons, there were Giant Demons, Demonic Beasts, Gargoyles, Giant Beast Demons, and more. All of them overflowing with power, as Lilith's Aura bathed over them, boosting their power.

An army of almost ten thousand demons was summoned in a mere second, all marching towards the village across the already burned and cleared path that Blake had made with his party.

"Now, I wonder if you can deal with ten thousand of my troops with mostly all of your Familiars gone?!" Laughed Lilith. "I've been calculating how many you've lost. You've lost almost a thousand! I doubt you can make any more, because you are always making a few each time. Even with your Vampires and those little girls at your side, you won't make it in time! Hahahaha!

I was going to win from the very start! Now what will you do? Will you try to slay me, or will you try to protect your village, Asmodeus?!"

As Lilith laughed triumphantly, Asmodeus kept calm, his grimoire flickering its pages. A powerful Death Attribute Aura surged from his entire body, the corpses of his Familiars spread everywhere across the burned Elios Garden began to absorb this Phantasmal Energy, his Mana was being constantly spent.

He thanked himself for having created a Mana Core before coming here, all of that extra mana was coming in handy.

"Lilith, sadly, I chose neither. I will stop your army and kill you now." Blake said with a face full of determination.

"{Familiar Necromancy: Rise}"

A wave of death and phantasmal essence washed over all Familiars. Over one thousand and five hundred Familiars that have already died, but whose corpses had yet to dissipate, quickly started to wake up again.

Their bodies transformed, resembling powerful Undead of all shapes and sizes, Blake's army of Familiars was back to action, shocking Lilith.

"Now, charge!"

With a mighty order, his entire army clashed against Lilith's demons.

"T-This is impossible… Necromancy?! As a Summoner?!"

Lilith couldn't believe what her eyes were seeing.
