"They failed again this time."
"You two pieces of trash, you couldn't beat Luke, but you couldn't even beat a few little kids?"
"Freddy, didn't you say you were the bane of minors? Is this how you fulfill that role?"
Inside a majestic, ancient, blood-red castle in the Hell Dimension, Mephisto yelled curses at Jason and Freddy.
Jason remained expressionless, showing no sign of emotion.
Freddy, grinning and bowing low, said, "I apologize, My Lord Demon King, this was just a mistake. Give me another chance, and I will certainly capture all of them."
"If you could bestow upon me the original Necronomicon, I could bring back even Luke for you!"
After experiencing the immense power granted by the Necronomicon, Freddy couldn't help but desire even greater might.
"The Necronomicon? For you?"
Mephisto curled his lips into a sneer. "I don't even possess that thing. Do you think you're worthy?"
Mephisto had only heard of the Necronomicon artifact, which was rumored to be related to the Four Great Existences located at the pinnacle of the Multiverse.
The two copies he gave Freddy and Jason were merely imitations, compiled from some of the magic he controlled, fragments of the Darkhold, and stories about the Necronomicon learned from legends—a super low-spec version of the Necronomicon.
They contained some Hell Dimension energy, capable of strengthening the power of the evil spirits.
Evil spirits who obtained the Necronomicon could also turn the magic within into instinct, thereby unleashing more powerful methods.
Mephisto's original plan was to use Blackheart to heavily injure Luke, and then have Freddy capture Luke's "daughters."
Jason was the backup plan, used to delay Luke's progress.
He didn't expect these three guys to be even more useless than the last.
Forget delaying him, they couldn't even take down a few human children barely ten years old.
The souls and resentment power from this sacrifice were wasted in vain.
Thinking of this, Mephisto's cold gaze swept over Freddy and Jason.
If these two guys weren't still useful, able to bypass the Kamar-Taj barrier and stir up fear and unrest on Earth, he would truly want to crush these two idiots to death.
"Damn Kamar-Taj! Damn Sorcerer Supreme! Damn Vishanti! Once I devour a few reality Universes, I will certainly teach you all a lesson!"
Mephisto secretly harbored hatred in his heart. Just as he was thinking about how to exact revenge,
a deafening explosion sounded in the distance.
At the same time, countless low-level demons and evil spirits wailed.
"What happened?"
Mephisto came to the edge of a blood pool, and with a wave of his hand, the surface of the pool condensed into a blood mirror.
Inside the blood mirror, countless evil spirits were seen rushing like a tide toward a central entity.
However, a sphere of light that evaporated everything quickly swept across and swallowed everything; the ground, the sky, and the demons were consumed and erased one by one.
A massive mushroom cloud soared into the sky!
The entire Hell Dimension felt tremors of varying intensity.
"Blackheart's territory?"
Mephisto frowned first, then burst out laughing. "A good fight!"
Blackheart was ambitious, coveting his position, secretly recruiting troops and buying horses, and trying to win over the Archdukes of Hell under his command.
Mephisto had long found this intolerable.
He didn't expect Blackheart's enemy to come knocking, directly hitting Blackheart's lair with a big one.
Mephisto was no longer in a hurry. One was a rebellious son, and the other was an outsider; no matter who lost, he would profit immensely.
It would be best if both sides suffered heavy losses, allowing him to reap the benefits of their conflict.
Freddy cautiously stepped forward and flatteringly said, "My Lord Demon King, why don't you let me go to the scene and check the situation?"
Mephisto nodded. He was also very curious about the identity of the outsider.
Judging solely by this scene, Blackheart seemed to be at a disadvantage.
If he had a chance to corrupt this person, then a great general could appear under his command.
Seeing this, Freddy immediately transformed into black smoke and flew away.
Mephisto continued watching the blood pool, already calculating the terms of a contract in his mind.
Until he saw a familiar face.
His expression instantly changed drastically!
"Luke!"
"He came to Hell!"
Mephisto was first startled, then overjoyed!
"Hahaha, excellent timing! The Hell Dimension is my territory! Even if the Sorcerer Supreme came, she would have to leave lying down!"
Mephisto showed no hesitation. His figure transformed into a blood-red humanoid demon with long horns and a red cape, soaring into the sky.
Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of kilometers away from the blood-red castle, at Blackheart's castle.
"Luke, I want you dead!"
Blackheart roared furiously, dragging his half-crippled body out of the center of the light sphere, heading straight for the figure high in the sky.
Luke looked down at the dark demon. He lightly tapped his index finger, and a white glow surged at the tip, expanding to tens of centimeters in diameter within a breath.
Countless energies converged within it, constantly compressing and refining, compressed perhaps tens of thousands of times.
Then, guided by his mind, Boom—!
The sphere of light erupted into an endless pillar of energy, tearing through the blood-red sky, silently swallowing everything in front of it!
The terrifying Blackheart desperately condensed a dark shield, but it was annihilated into nothingness in an instant. The light pillar struck his chest, tearing through all his defenses in the blink of an eye.
Just as Blackheart cried out, the original tens-of-centimeters light pillar instantly expanded tenfold!
And it contained a trace of red Firelight.
"No!!!"
The light pillar swallowed Blackheart, striking the boundless ground of Hell, its ferocious power tearing open a rift hundreds of kilometers deep.
[Killed Anomalous Target Blackheart's True Body. Gained 2500 Anomaly Points]
[Reality Editor upgraded to Version 7.7. Current Anomaly Points: 1700 / 6800]
Originally, Blackheart's clone contained most of his power, providing 5000 Anomaly Points.
Therefore, this only provided an additional 2500.
Combined, although it was not as much as the Ancient One, it still surpassed all regular Alpha-level Titans.
After Luke annihilated Blackheart with a single finger, the light sphere on the surface continued to expand outward, seemingly intending to swallow all of Hell.
Sensing the energy fluctuations around him, Luke smiled faintly:
"Mephisto, how have you been?"
"You chose not to be delighted by your victory and lived a good life on Earth, Haha, but forced your way through the gates of Hell! Heh heh heh heh, die for me!"
Mephisto had just flown out of the void, having no intention of wasting words; he attacked immediately upon meeting Luke.
Only by killing Luke could he wash away his shame.
Can you believe it? A devil was actually tricked in a contract!
After this incident spread, Mephisto's prestige in the Hell Dimension decreased somewhat!
He was even mocked by some Dimensional Demon Gods.
Mephisto had no choice but to skip the most recent Demon God Council... focusing entirely on entering Earth to cause trouble for Luke.
Now that the opportunity to wipe away the previous humiliation was right before him, Mephisto was deeply afraid that Luke would just run away.
Just like those mages from Kamar-Taj, who were as annoying as slippery eels.
Mephisto punched the shield covering Luke, only causing slight ripples.
"Is that all you've got?" Luke raised an eyebrow.
"You will learn how formidable I am."
Countless blood-red and purple mixed misty energies surged around Mephisto, flowing into his arm. His power was enhanced hundreds, even thousands of times under the energy boost.
The terrifying blood-red demon wore a ferocious smile.
"I hope you can still smile so happily later."
"Die for me!"
Mephisto fiercely unleashed all his strength, driving countless energies to instantly shatter the shield.
His triumphant roar echoed in the air. "This is my Dimension! Here, I am the omnipotent ruler!"
Mephisto laughed madly as he successively shattered dozens of shields. Slowly, the laughter died down.
"Just how many shields did you put on yourself?! Are you really that afraid of death?! You coward!"
"Not many, just a few thousand shields."
Luke felt no shame whatsoever. When fighting, wasn't it normal to stack a few extra shields?
Mephisto's inherent strength wasn't great, but this was still his domain, so showing some appropriate respect was necessary.
Caution and prudence were also appropriate.
That's just how we mages are!
"Bastard!!"
Mephisto was enraged. "Do you think stacking all these shields is useful? I have an endless supply of energy in Hell. It will just take a little more time."
"I'm going to finish you today. No one can save you, I guarantee it!"
Mephisto continued to empower himself with Hell energy, his entire strength surging again as he shattered over a hundred shields in one breath.
But at that moment, Mephisto suddenly noticed a disturbance in the sky. Something massive seemed about to emerge from within the heavy blood clouds above.
He had a bad premonition.
Luke hasn't retaliated yet, and his attention isn't even focused on Mephisto.
This is clearly a problem!
"What exactly are you standing here staring at?"
"Nothing much. Just wanted to give Hell a surprise."
Luke looked up at the sky. "Have you ever seen a meteor shower? Go on, son, make a wish~"
"What the...?"
Mephisto was stunned for a moment, and then an alarm bell went off in his heart.
Whoosh—!
The sky was set ablaze!
The blood clouds were scorched and torn apart by the flames.
Giant meteorites, each at least hundreds of kilometers in diameter, tore through the firmament with long tail flames, slamming into the ground with billions of tons of energy!
Countless flashes of Fire and explosions, mixed with the wails of spirits, filled the entire sky.
Looking out, countless meteorites were falling, one after another.
It seemed as if the entire boundless Hell was encompassed by the meteorites.
Mushroom clouds sprang up like bamboo shoots after a spring rain; lava splashed, and high-temperature flames ignited everything.
Mephisto's heart went cold!
"Isn't it spectacular? It's free, watch all you want."
Luke spent thousands of units of energy in one go, unleashing the meteor shower and Hellfire to give Hell a massive surprise.
