"Hiss~!"
Richard gasped.
"As expected of the infamous Lord of Hell!"
"Truly a grave sin of slaughter!"
Asmodeus looked at Richard with surprise and asked in confusion, "My lord, isn't this kind of thing quite common for these Lord of Dimension?"
"..."
Richard shook his head and sighed, "This has truly broadened my horizons..."
He thought to himself, "I probably could never do something like destroying a Living Planet just to create a recreational space..."
Asmodeus frowned slightly upon seeing this.
He recalled the peaceful time he had spent in the Crimson Dimension, and only now did he realize that Richard hadn't been treating him well, but had deliberately chosen a place similar to the Hell Paradise to house him...
Instead, the entire Crimson Dimension was teeming with life!
"Grown ups!"
Asmodeus suddenly knelt on one knee.
He placed his hand on his chest, bowed his head, and said very solemnly, "I beg you to save my Hell Incubus race!"
Richard looked down at him, remaining silent.
Asmodeus waited quietly, but received no response.
He immediately knelt down, then prostrated himself on the ground, pleading in the most humbly manner, "My lord, I beg you to save my Hell Incubus race!"
"For this, my succubus race is willing to pay any price!"
"Any price," Richard said with a light laugh.
Even if your Incubus Race lives a more miserable life in the future than it does now?
Asmodeus replied resolutely, "We will have no regrets even if we die!"
"Alright~" Richard raised his hand and 'pulled' him up.
"When you say Incubus Race, do you mean only Male Incubus, or do you include Succubus as well?"
Asmodeus replied respectfully, "My lord, it is naturally both Succubus."
Richard raised an eyebrow. "But as far as I know, Male Incubus from Hell have always been rare creatures."
Asmodeus smiled wryly and said, "My lord, the vast majority of Male Incubus in Hell are trapped in this Hell Paradise..."
"The few Male Incubus exiled to the outside world were all poor wretches who violated the strict rules of the Hell Paradise and had their Incubus Tail cut off before being banished from here."
" The Incubus Tail?" Richard glanced at Asmodeus's long, pointed tail.
Asmodeus blushed slightly. "Once a succubus loses its Incubus Tail, its life will also begin its countdown."
"Wow, that's ruthless." Richard couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement.
Asmodeus said somberly, "To Mephisto, we are nothing more than playthings that he can discard when they're broken."
"And what about the Succubus?" Richard asked curiously.
Asmodeus hesitated for a moment, then said in a hoarse voice, " Mephisto is not interested in women."
"Huh?!" Richard's eyes widened in surprise.
Another shocking revelation!!!
"And your mother..."
"My mother is an exception!" Asmodeus quickly explained; "My mother is a pure Mount Olympus goddess."
"Compared to her beauty, the Divine Blood Essence within her and the Mount Olympus Rule Fragment within her soul are more attractive to Mephisto."
At this point, a deep sorrow appeared on his face. "So my mother could have escaped Hell..."
"But because of my father's passing, she ultimately chose to Oblivion herself."
Richard looked at Asmodeus with pity. That poor kid, he'd had a truly miserable life!
"So, how am I supposed to save your succubus race?"
"Take you all back to Earth? Or to the Crimson Dimension?"
Asmodeus shook his head dejectedly. "Useless, sir. Mephisto holds a sliver of the Soul Origin of every Hell Incubus."
"He can easily kill all succubi with that Soul Origin."
"..." Richard helplessly spread his hands. "This is unsolvable~~"
"No, my lord!" Asmodeus exclaimed immediately, "There is another way!"
"Three hundred years ago, I unexpectedly obtained some information. Mephisto had hidden all his precious treasures in a secluded place that only he could reach."
"Once we find that place, we can retrieve our Soul Origin!"
"Oh?" Richard asked with interest, "Where is that place?"
"It's located deep beneath the Abyss Throne!" Asmodeus became somewhat excited. "But there's an extremely terrifying pressure there. Some powerful Hell Demon have once dared to sneak down there."
"But they all exploded and died, and their demonic True Spirit were cast into the Hell Netherfire by Mephisto, where they were tormented for countless years."
Richard's eyes lit up as he listened.
" Mephisto's treasure trove..."
"Beneath the Abyss Throne..."
"There was an extremely terrifying pressure..."
"Even the most powerful demon will explode and die if it enters..."
[This place sounds a lot like the Dimensional Core!]
[Holy crap! Mephisto, that cunning old fox, could he have mistaken the core of the Hell Dimension for his treasure trove?!]
Richard grabbed Asmodeus's shoulder and said impatiently, "Take me to that place you mentioned, right now!"
Asmodeus nodded excitedly, "My lord, please follow me! There's a Teleportation Array in the Hell Paradise that leads directly to the Abyss Throne!"
"I have the key to activate the Teleportation Array right here!"
The two immediately concealed themselves and headed to the location of the Teleportation Array.
They walked through a vast garden and came to the outside of a magnificent palace.
Asmodeus pointed to a dark green Vortex Portal standing upright in the center of the plaza outside the palace.
"Sir, that's Teleportation Array."
"However, a squad of Male Incubus loyal to Mephisto patrols and guards the Teleportation Array year-round."
He glanced at the sky above Hell, frowned, and said, "It's almost patrol time, sir. Let's wait patiently..."
Asmodeus turned his head and his eyes widened instantly.
He cried out in disbelief, "My lord?!"
Richard then revealed himself and walked confidently toward the Portal.
Just then, the Male Incubus guards happened to be patrolling by.
They immediately raised their weapons and aimed them at Richard, the uninvited guest.
"Who goes there? Stop right there!"
Richard turned to where Asmodeus was hiding and asked with a smile, "You just said these guys are all Mephisto's die-hard supporters, right?"
Asmodeus:...
The Male Incubus guards were immediately enraged.
"How dare you! You dare to address the Hell Sovereign by his name?!"
"Capture him! Let His Majesty deal with him personally upon his return!"
Richard casually extended his right hand towards the charging Male Incubus guard, making a perfunctory handshake.
'Click! Click! Click! Click!'
Before the Male Incubus guard could even scream, they were crushed into fist-sized balls of flesh and blood by the terrifying forces coming from all directions.
Richard lowered his hand, and the ball of flesh crashed to the ground with a 'bang,' creating a crater in the smooth rock.
He turned back and waved again. "Come here."
Asmodeus appeared and walked over, looking completely bewildered.
Richard held out his hand. "The key."
Asmodeus snapped out of his daze and hurriedly said, "Oh, okay!"
He hurriedly pulled out the Teleportation Array Key and respectfully handed it to Richard.
Richard fiddled with the golden key and asked, "How do I use it?"
Asmodeus bowed his head and replied, "All you need to do is throw the key into the energy vortex of the Portal."
"Once the Portal is activated, the key will automatically fly back to your hand."
"That's simple." Richard tossed the key directly into the energy vortex of the green Teleportation Array.
'Buzz~'
As an energy fluctuation rippled, the green vortex emitted a shimmering light.
Then, the golden key flew back to Richard's hand automatically.
"Let's go to the Abyss Throne."
"Yes, sir!"
Asmodeus took the initiative to go ahead and scout the way.
After a dizzying moment, Richard and his companion arrived at a spacious palace.
However, the next second, a light and melodious voice of surprise rang out in the palace.
Who are you?!
