Meanwhile, Hela was enjoying the slaughter of the Fallen Angels here and there, I was finishing my duel with Archangel Uriel, who managed to recover his standing, and now we were dueling on equal ground. However, I had a slight advantage thanks to my higher mastery of magic.

I was Grandmaster in most magic systems, which was something to behold. I already saw Azazel's loyal forces retreating from the battlefield as I released a small smile over it.

I then shot another salvo from the Gate of Babylon Style of Dark Light which was now even stronger after I touched the realm of Laws and started comprehending the Law of Darklight.

My aim, on the contrary, was to comprehend and reach Apocalypse-Class through the Law of Devouring. For several reasons to be truthful.

The first one was that if I can comprehend the Law of Devouring, then my Clan Trait Devour would be so strong that I could Devour Laws of killed foes if they comprehended some. I have managed to do it with Lucifer, but that was more a stroke of luck than a show of proficiency or ability.

The second reason was that with Devour, I could increase my energy reserves or get stronger really fast compared to the Law of Darklight.

After half an hour, my fight with Archangel Uriel has wholly obliterated the diameter of several kilometers, as aftershocks still killed some Angels, Devils, or Fallens that were close to our position.

Unfortunately for me, we have reached a deadlock. While Uriel was stronger than me Class wise, and even had some elemental advantage over me, with his Light and especially his Holy Flame, I was perfectly able to contain all of it with the use of my superior mastery of magic and arcane.

I really wanted to kill him, as his Bloodline combined with Incinarete Anthem could create a new Clan Trait, and possibly another Law for sure.

I mean it, as if someone has Clan Trait and is talented enough in terms of Soul Aptitude, then the chance of comprehending the Law which was essential for the already said Clan Trait was higher than people who didn't have anything and were forced to start from scratch.

I looked at Uriel, who was flying in the air opposite me, as we stared at each other, until out of nowhere beam of black energy, that looked like a sword slash attacked Uriel and sent him flying.

"Azrael."

I instantly used the opportunity created by Azrael's sneak attack on Uriel and the arrival of the Death Guard Legion, which joined the forces of the Devils and started ferociously attacking the remaining Fallen Angels on the main battlefield.

I appeared in front of Uriel, who was greatly injured by Azrael's Power of Death which was used abundantly in the attack.

I quickly cast Gravity Fall Spell that increased Gravity around Uriel several dozen times, as Dark Light Chains bond him in one place, not allowing him to move an inch, as I used my scythe Rosenkreutz to decapitate Archangel Uriel.

I stored the corpse of the now-deceased Archangel in my storage space and flew away to the place where Zekram was together with other high-ranking devils, as Azrael also landed down.

He and Zekram stared at each other for several seconds as they shook hands and greeted each other like old friends. It was understandable as both of them lived for millennia, and of course, they would know each other.

Zekram was famous for his vast network of contacts in every faction and pantheon across the entire Draconic Deus.

Within the next several hours, slowly but steadily, all Fallen Angels that were not part of Azazel's followers were massacred like pigs; corpses were stacked together creating literal mountains of rotting flesh and rivers of blood.

Heaven retreated shortly after the death of Uriel and several more Cadres and Archangels that Yahweh created for the sole purpose of War, so they were a bit warmonger, one could say.

Azazel, who retreated as first, had the lowest losses. While they sent 6 billion soldiers to fight, they lost around 1,5. Almost all were loyalists of Kokabiel, already killed Satanael or some other Cadres who wanted the War to continue.

Devils who sent 8 billion lost around 1 billion, from which 70% were basically loyal soldiers of Houses Leviathan, Asmodeus, and Beelzebub. Others were some Houses that leaned more toward the Satans. With Zekram and Gerstahl, I placed them to Vanguard, which was destined to die under the heaviest attacks from Grigoria and Heaven.

"It has ended."

Someone said as silence took over the command tent.

"No. It has just started."

I said as everyone looked at me with surprise, and only a selected few knew what was going on. I then look at the group of Generals and Nobles, around ten people altogether.

"Four Satans are dead, and Lucifer has perished by my hand. Descendants of those weaklings who you call leaders were annihilated to one. From today, there will be no Satans; there will be no division, conflict, or discrimination between our races. From today, I am the sole supreme ruler, the Emperor of Baator."

I said, shocking everyone in the tent deeply, aside from a few, who were now standing by my side, most notable being Zekram, Gerstahl, and other Heads of Six Houses of Lucifer, Azrael, Mephisto, or Archduke Agares.

"So what is it? Allegiance or death?"

I asked once again impatiently as I saw all of them reach for weapons as rage-filled their faces.

"It's treason, then."

I said as I released Dark Light Chains out of nowhere that pierced hearts of all of them simultaneously, killing them instantly.

"Long Live the Emperor! All Hail Baator!"

Said Zekram as he knelt before me, leaving me surprised at his gesture, but I smiled, as I knew that what it meant.

"Long Live the Emperor! All Hail Baator!"

Said Gerstahl Lucifuge together with the Heads of the Six Houses of Lucifer as they all knelt down on one knee.

"Long Live the Emperor! All Hail Baator!"

"Long Live the Emperor! All Hail Baator!"

"Long Live the Emperor! All Hail Baator!"

Chanted the rest of the nobles and military Generals.
