"Uooooh!!"

"Aaaaahhh!!"

The sound of clanking swords and the sound of both human and demon fighting for the peace of the country. Some do it for power and some use it for the prize that Beatrice has offer.

-- "Sir! We're losing numbers!"

-- "You all! Cast Fireball magic!"

-- "Don't let those demon win against us! Fight!"

Many people has already died on this war and same as for the demons.

-- "Don't let those humans stop the lord!"

-- "Destroy them!!"

-- "This land shall be our!!"

The demons fight by the order by their demon lord, Diavolo. That been resurrected, and have a goal to conquer the place where humans lives.

Of course the human side will not let it go as they pleased, so they'll fight for not only for them but for all the people on the palace.

But, while both humans and demons are fighting, from afar, Diavolo is watching them.

"Fight or not, it's useless... You can't win against us. This is your fate and accept it..."

While Diavolo is talking on his self, one of his ally has entered the room and about to give a report.

"Diavolo-sama, here are the latest report."

"Speak."

"Your daughter (Lucy) and the others is almost here (where we are located), and Beelzebub is already here."

"Hmm... Then... We shall do what we have plan."

"Yes."

The demon leave the room and Diavolo is getting ready for something.

And after a while the fight between Beelzebub and Diavolo starts. The power of Diavolo is too much for Beelzebub to handle, and was defeated by him.

And at that time, Beelzebub had already accepted his fate to die by Diavolo hands.

-----Slash-----

The sound of a metal that slashed a skin. But it isn't Beelzebub who got hit, but it's Diavolo!

[Meanwhile at Shizuka's Group]

It's been a while since an enemy has attacked us, and there's no one seems to be spying at us. The silence on the place is too suspicious.

"It's quiet huh...?"

"Yeah... Too quiet."

"Aah!! Finally, thanks Beatrice for breaking this silence!"

And as we talk while walking, someone with horns on his head suddenly charging on us, it's a demon!

We all for the attacks of the demon and I counter it by swinging a scythe I made with my shadow.

The demon dodge and attacks me, he have a sharp closed that he use to attack me. I keep dodge his attacks, and counter it with a slash with my schthe.

He block it with his sharp claws, and he suddenly change his target. He runs toward Elaine-sama and about to hit her with his class.

"Elaine-sama!"

As I call Elaine-sama'a name, Ariel used his ability.

"Time Stop."

And before she cast her ability, I notice how the demon claws suddenly getting bigger and covering his body with it.

Ariel has teleport near Elaine-sama, she must have continued the flow of time. But it's weird, the demon came out unharmed.

"What's wrong Ariel? Didn't you stopped time?"

"I did, but... He blocked his body with his claws, and the claws are rather hard to break."

"We need a plan, like right now...!"

"No. You three go on without me."

"Eh?"

"The demon Lord location should be near, go!"

"But... What about you?"

"I got this, now go!"

"... I got it..."

Me, Elaine-sama, and Beatrice runs to the location of the demon Lord, leaving Ariel to fight the demon that suddenly attacked us.

And after a while we finally at the place, there's a lots of pillar everywhere. The demon lord Diavolo should be deep inside.

And as we stay on that place on this place, I can hear some clanking sound of metal. Someone is having a battle using sword somewhere, that must be Beelzebub fighting someone.

-- "That must be Beelzebub-san! Let's go!"

"... Yes."

We run towards the sound of clanking metals, and after a while the sound suddenly stopped, it's weird... And when we enter a room, I finally found Beelzebub but she's on the ground crouching.

And the guy with a long red hair and a horn, a demon, that's the same guy on Lucy's memories. It's her (my) father, the demon lord, Diavolo!

Diavolo raised his arm that is holding a sword and about to strike/kill Beelzebub, this is bad!

I used my shadow to create a dagger and throw it to diavolo, he noticed it and tries to dodge it but still got hit on his right arm.

"...?! Lucy-sama!?"

"Sorry Beelzebub, we're late."

Diavolo looked at me and speaks.

"Do you're finally here, daughter."

"Heh... Let's get this over already, it's been days since I last took a bath."

"Ahaha! What an attitude! You sure have guts betraying not only your father but the whole demon race, just for who? Those humans?"

"Don't run your mouth like that old man. I will be the one who will decide what I want to do, I don't like people telling me this and that."

"Oho... Do you perhaps seek death?"

"I don't, but... Do you?"

"Aha... Haha... Ahahahahahaha!!"

"..."

Both of his sword suddenly turns red, and it seems to be heated by his power, maybe?

I still don't know what ability does my father (demon lord) have. Even Lucy doesn't have any memories of her father showing his power to her.

I will just hope that Ariel will come here in no time, we need her power here...
