In the dense forest, Ghost Box King pulled his twin blades from Mika's chest, a slightly excited smile on his face.
Krul looked at Ghost Box King in surprise, clearly not understanding what was happening.
That human brat had completely offered his body to a demon just to save Mika, but this demon had personally stabbed Mika through the heart.
Ghost Box King flicked the blood off his blades and sheathed them.
"You're Sigmado-sama's person? You should have said so earlier, I almost killed you."
Krul felt the chains on her body loosen, and she landed safely. She was stunned for a moment, then tilted her head and pointed at herself, asking,
"Huh? Are you talking to me?"
"Is there anyone else here?"
Upon hearing this, Krul became even more confused. Who was Sigmado? I only recognize Crowley-sama!
Just as she was about to ask something else, she was interrupted by a voice.
"Yo, Ghost Box King, long time no see."
Yoichi's figure appeared not far away. At this moment, he was also in a state of complete Demon Transformation, with two demon horns that were very eye-catching.
His aura was also incomparably stronger.
Ghost Box King turned to look, his smile widening.
"Ah, Moonlight Rhyme, that brat has also completely undergone Demon Transformation?"
Moonlight Rhyme nodded, raising his hand to clench his fist, somewhat displeased.
"It's just that the body is too weak. By the way, I found an old acquaintance."
Moonlight Rhyme displayed mahiru no yoru, which he was holding, to Ghost Box King.
"It's this guy? But was he part of the original plan? I forgot."
Moonlight Rhyme shrugged.
"I don't know either."
Ghost Box King thought for a moment, then made a decision.
"Bring him along, as a mascot."
As soon as he finished speaking, mahiru no yoru trembled slightly, expressing its dissatisfaction.
But Ghost Box King didn't take him seriously at all. He could feel that Shinya was currently injured, his strength far from what it used to be, and he couldn't stir up any big waves.
Krul suddenly noticed that Feng had also come with Moonlight Rhyme.
"Feng! Have you killed all those brats?"
Feng was a bit more disheveled than Krul at this moment, but she didn't have any serious injuries. She shook her head helplessly, pointing at Moonlight Rhyme.
"No, this guy wouldn't let me kill them, even though he said he was on my side."
Ghost Box King was somewhat surprised to hear this.
"Huh? Moonlight Rhyme, you also saved those two little girls and that idiot?"
Moonlight Rhyme rubbed his neck impatiently.
"Ah, after all, Yoichi underwent complete Demon Transformation to save them. Don't mention that for now. Is this guy also arranged by Sigmado-sama?"
Moonlight Rhyme's gaze fell on Krul, and that look made Krul a little uneasy.
Who exactly is Sigmado?! Forget it, I can't beat them. Mika is already dead anyway, I'll find an opportunity to slip away.
Ghost Box King leaned against a tree with his arms crossed, incidentally putting away the materialized coffin.
"Yes, this blonde Vampire should be Angel Mikael, whom Sigmado-sama mentioned thousands of years ago. He's been dead for a while, so he should be undergoing Demon Transformation soon."
Moonlight Rhyme squatted down, looking at Mika's corpse with a pierced heart.
Killed by a cursed gear, yet only the wound showed signs of erosion. demon markings slowly appeared on his body, and his Demonic Aura became increasingly dense.
"How peculiar."
Ghost Box King and Moonlight Rhyme waited for a while longer. Mika's body suddenly floated up, rising into mid-air, and the surrounding Demonic Aura pulled him up like ribbons.
"Oh oh oh! It's coming!"
Ghost Box King was a bit excited; he had long been tired of the boring days of staying inside the blade!
Mika's Demonic Aura was now almost corporeal.
Boom!
Mika's body directly exploded. The area below his chest completely disappeared, and his face was now a void, from which a pale arm extended.
The two demons and two Vampires present were all forced to retreat by Mika's current aura.
Ghost Box King looked at the undergoing Demon Transformation Mika with anticipation.
"Although the body I just occupied has to be temporarily abandoned, compared to Sigmado-sama's plan, this is secondary."
..."Mikael?!"
Krul was somewhat surprised. Eight years ago, her contract with Hiiragi Mahiru did mention Mika's Demon Transformation, but from her brother's words, Mika was actually transforming into a Demon King?
It sounded like he would be a grade stronger than the demon her brother had become.
Speaking of which, after dealing with the Hyakuya Sect, she hadn't paid attention to Yuichiro and Mika. Now that Mika had become a Demon King, what had happened?
asuramaru's sensing grew stronger and stronger until a thought appeared, attempting to communicate with him.
"Yo, asuramaru, are you ready? Sigmado-sama's assigned task is about to begin."
Immediately after, in the space within the blade, a coffin appeared out of thin air in front of asuramaru. asuramaru waved his right hand, and a mass of Demonic Aura pried open the coffin lid, revealing the void inside the coffin.
This was Ghost Box King's ability; the coffin could connect different planes of space: reality, the sea of consciousness, and... the fantasy world where Mika's consciousness resided after his Demon Transformation.
Outside, Luke, seeing that asuramaru had suddenly fallen silent, tried to communicate but also received no response.
Krul was also a bit worried and asked with a frown.
"What's wrong with brother?"
Luke pondered for a moment, a guess forming in his mind, and summoned his magic sword.
The magic sword's Demonic Aura coiled around asuramaru's blade, and soon, Kyle conveyed the situation to Luke.
"A coffin leading elsewhere... it seems to be going to capture the demon-transformed Mika, right?"
Luke explained the situation and his guess to Krul.
"A demon catching a demon? Can that coffin still be used?"
Luke didn't understand what Krul meant and replied truthfully.
"Yes, I'm even planning to let my demon stir up some trouble."
Krul looked up, her gaze fixed directly on Luke's eyes.
"Can I go in?"
Krul felt that Luke, who seemed to know everything, should have a way.
She was worried about her brother.
Luke was startled at first, but quickly understood Krul's meaning. Looking at her eyes, he knew that even if he said asuramaru's trip was not dangerous, she would still want to follow.
"Only your consciousness can enter; your body will remain outside."
Krul smiled, unconcerned.
"Then you'll have to protect my body well, okay?"
Luke chuckled mischievously.
"Don't worry, I'll protect it closely~"
At this moment, a voice suddenly interrupted their conversation.
"Krul."
Krul and Luke looked in the direction of the voice; it was Rig.
Urd had already finished his conversation with him. They hadn't spoken particularly quietly, so Krul and Luke had both heard.
Roughly, Urd had been persuaded to deal with the Progenitor.
However, Luke was certain that Urd would guard against Rig's sneak attack from behind, and those two had a tacit understanding.
Rig was suspended in mid-air, smiling at Krul.
"Aren't you also collecting sin keys? I know about the other Seraph's situation."
As he spoke, Rig intentionally or unintentionally glanced at Luke next to Krul.
He deliberately changed the person in charge of the sin keys to Krul, just to make Luke less conspicuous under the eyes of these Progenitors.
Krul thought for a moment and also understood Rig's intentions.
However, the several Progenitors who were completely unaware fit Rig's expectations.
Lest Karr frowned. The description of the sin key's power in Rig and Urd's conversation surprised him; he hadn't expected Krul to have started collecting them so early.
"Krul, the law explicitly forbids participation in the Seraph experiments, yet you've been secretly collecting sin keys?"
Luke helplessly covered his face.
Lest the Debater is at it again!
Krul merely glanced at him, too lazy to explain.
"Idiot."
Just as Lest Karr was about to lash out, he was interrupted by Urd.
Urd walked up to Krul and extended his hand as a matter of course.
"Give it to me, the plan cannot afford to fail."
Krul was a bit unsure how to respond. Handing it over directly was definitely not an option; the sin keys were directly related to her brother's resurrection.
Rig then stepped in to smooth things over again.
"Her sin keys have already been stolen by me."
Luke: What an outrageous lie!
Rig smiled confidently and continued.
"So, for this plan, you'll have to listen to me. By the way, the sin keys aren't on me; there are five in total, and I've entrusted them to my subordinates."
Luke: My fists are getting hard! My fists are getting hard!
Urd frowned.
"You need to understand, you're the one who wants to deal with the Progenitor..."
"Then there's nothing to discuss."
Urd fell silent. It was a joke; if he didn't want to deal with the Progenitor, why would he run all the way to Japan after sensing the Progenitor's aura?
