Chapter 105: Ch 103 - Devils and Hosts
Alex placed his hand on Julius's chest and muttered. "It will hurt so bear with it."
"Hey, what are you doing?" Mereoleona asked.
"Taking care of a hidden danger for the kingdom!" Alex replied and activated 'Devour' on Julius.
Instantly a terrifying ferocious darkness covered both Alex and Julius, penetrating the body of the latter.
Julius felt a piercing pain that kept him from keeping his consciousness awake as he asked.
"Hidden danger? Is it me...?"
"Not you. But the alter soul that is sleeping inside your body. I am talking to you, Lucius Zogratis!"
Alex spoke coldly as he grabbed something inside Julius' body.
Suddenly, Julius's voice changed replaced by a mysterious yet charming voice.
"What an annoying variable! Maybe I should kill you! You have no place in my perfect world!"
Julius raised his hand and touched Alex with his finger but even after a few seconds nothing happened.
"How could this be?" Julius asked in shock.
Alex grinned and pulled it out, chuckling. "Even the combination of your three young siblings can't touch a strand of my hair, for you think you can? Your Soul magic is good, I'll use it well."
Alex stared at the small intangible thing in his palm and crushed it. "Don't cause trouble for everyone with your presence."
"Rhya, heal him!" Alex spoke.
Rhya immediately cast the light magic spell and headed Julius's life-threatening wound.
"Wh... What did you just do? And what was that thing?" Mereoleona asked curiously. Not many things could shock her like that but the different voice and behavior of Julius really surprised her.
After Julius was healed, he stood up slowly and looked at Alex for an answer.
Alex looked at the three pairs of eyes staring at him hard and he sighed.
"As you all know, humans are not the only race living in this world. There are Driads, Elves, Fishman, and more but among all races, there is only one race that is not allowed to live on the mainland. That race dwelled in the depth of the underworld and messed with our world from there..."
"Which race is it?" Julius asked, his curiosity was piqued.
"Devils!" Alex replied.
Julius and Mereoleona showed various reactions from confusion to surprise when they heard about it.
Rhya was puzzled as he had never heard about such a race before in his life. Even though Alex had told him once already he still couldn't tell whether it was real or not.
Alex had predicted their reactions and continued. "Whatever happens between humans and Elves a century ago, the real ring leader was actually a high-ranking devil. He originally wanted to turn Licht to the dark side and then snatch his body. But as you all are aware... Licht used an ancient forbidden spell to turn himself into a demon. The first magic emperor, Lemiel used his light magic to slay it. After the demon was slain, Licht again regained his control over his body and stopped himself. After that, he asked Lemiel's help to seal him away..."
Alex took out his grimoire and waved it around. "This grimoire actually belonged to Licht and my swords too. In terms of talent, he really was one of the best. No wonder the devil used humans' greed to attain his goals."
"So, that's what happened in the past a hundred years ago. It is really... so disappointing." Julius commented sadly.
Mereoleona scoffed coldly. "Disappointing? Hmph! It is completely disgusting. They even sacrificed the princess to gain the magic power of the Elves. I really want to punch them to death."
"I understand their pain but... I am the Wizard King and I have the responsibility to protect the citizens of the Clover Kingdom." Julius sighed and said seriously.
Alex smirked playfully and said. "It seems you have some misconception, Julius. You are not the Magic Emperor anymore. You are now only Julius Novachrono. You don't have your overpowered Time Magic anymore."
"W-What do you mean...? It can't be..." Julius was caught by surprise by Alex's words. He closed his eyes and tried to feel the time magic but for some unknown and mysterious reason, he couldn't use his unique time magic.
Even Mereoleona was shocked by the discovery and looked at Julius with an incredulous gaze.
Both she and Julius simultaneously turned toward Alex for an answer. Not only them but even Rhya was interested, waiting for an answer.
Alex looked at the three curious gazes and sighed, explaining slowly. "Julius's time magic does not ever belong to him in the first place. As I told you already, Julius's body housed two souls into it or you can say that they are twin brothers but in one body... The other soul actually belonged to the eldest sibling of the Zogratis siblings. There is not much information about him in the outside world or you can say that he hid himself pretty well... Anyway, all the Zogratis siblings are hosts of the high-ranking devils and possess dual magics, one that is originally theirs and the second is artificial, the magic of Devils that is granted to them by those Devils."
He took a breath and let the three of them digest the information before continuing. "Since I am hunting Devils, I naturally collected all sorts of information about the creatures. And then with my encounter with the Zogratis siblings, I confirmed my point... Dante Zogratis, the first among the Dark Triads is the host of the highest-ranking devil Lucifero who is also one of the three rulers of the underworld. Dante has body magic alongside Lucifero's Gravity Magic. Last time, he barely escaped with his life and he is the one I want to kill the most."
Alex unconsciously released his killing intent, scaring the three poor souls who took a step back in fear.
The three of them tactically glanced at each other and made a decision to not pry into his personal matters of why he wanted to kill that guy so much.
Alex ignored them and took a deep breath to calm himself.
"The second among the Dark Triad is Vanica Zogratis. She is also the host of the highest-ranking devil and the second ruler of the underworld, Megicula. She can use her own blood magic and Megicula's Curse-Warding Magic."
Alex glanced at Mereoleona and said. "She is the one who cursed Acier Silva because of which Noelle's mother died."
Mereoleona's face darkened immediately and she silently remembered the name of the devil and her host, thinking of taking revenge later.
"Last but not least, Zenon Zogratis, host of the highest ranking devil and the last ruler of the underworld, Beelzebub. He has Bone magic and Beelzebub's Spatial Magic in his possession, making him a very dangerous opponent to face head-on."
