Epic Of Caterpillar

-----

The elderly-looking demon slowly walked across the explosions, his Demonic Aura blocking all the magic that could reach him, he slowly made his way in front of the powerful Luminous.

"Hey, little lizard. Don't you think it's about time you let us pass?"

He asked gently, although that only made Luminous angrier… He couldn't believe a demon was asking him politely to let them pass so they could slaughter innocent people and steal their treasures.

"Your act of kindness won't get through me." Luminous said, suddenly summoning a gigantic sword of light. "I know your true colors, demons! I can sense it within you. That Aura of yours, it contains the agony and suffering of millions! How many innocent souls have you devoured?!"

"Hohoho, I don't think that matters now… So? Will you let me pass?" Asked the old man, glancing at Luminous by moving his head upwards.

"The answer remains the same." Luminous said, swinging his sword. "NO!"

SLAAAAAASSHH!!

An enormous sword of light reached the elderly demon, unleashing a deadly wave of Heavenly Holy Light!

"Hmmm… Whatever will I do now…"

As the old man lamented, his Aura erupted from his body with tremendous force, the holy light coming for him was immediately disrupted and destroyed!

TRUUUUMMM…!

Crack, crack…!

CRAAASH!

"What?!"

Luminous was taken aback as he saw the old man negate one of the demon's greatest weaknesses as if nothing!

The Aura he possessed… It wasn't normal! It was strange, bizarre even! Luminous couldn't help but wonder how it was possible for a demon to develop such a power.

A power filled with such an unsettling amount of "serenity" and "internal peace" despite how hateful and barbaric demons were!

This power somehow changed the old man's Demonic Aura.

It turned it into an endless, near invisible wave of golden essence… 

"This old man's dangerous!"

A single thought flashed through Luminous mind, as he immediately decided to target the old man in front of him!

"RAAAAH!"

"Hoh?"

The elderly demon glanced at Luminous charge his body with his powers and his Dao Essence, attacking him with a berserk-like rampage of blows!

CRAASH! CRAASH! CRAASH! CRAASH! CRAASH!

His titanic claws, his massive tail, his monstrous fangs, his deadly magic, all of the attacks were…

Completely blocked!

"Hohoho, you're quite lively…"

The elderly man approached Luminous as his golden aura continued to transform and repel all damage, Luminous was growing desperate!

"W-What with this old man…?!"

"Let me show you what a true hit must be."

Suddenly, the old man's body started trembling, the disgusting sound of bones cracking and flesh trembling echoed from his body, as muscles erupted from his lanky and scrawny physique.

FLUOOSH!

His golden aura suddenly turned crimson red, as Luminous saw the old man's small and thin arms become gigantic and muscular, while the rest of his body was also growing muscular and youthful!

BAAAAAMMMM!!!

And his fist reached him, breaking through his barriers and then hitting his stomach!

Despite the gigantic size difference, it felt like Luminous insides were about to burst!

"W-What?!"

CRAAAAASSSHHH!!!

The gigantic dragon was lunged into the skies with immense force, as he quickly fell into the barrier protecting the tower, almost shattering it!

CLAAASSHH…!!

"What… What happened?!" Odanth looked towards Luminous.

"No…!" Yvnei panicked.

"T-That demon…" Nanet stepped back, glancing at the tremendous aura of power exuding from him.

"T-This is bad…!" Nyzzet trembled. "If Luminous can't defeat him, there's no way we can!"

The old man then directed his eyes at the Dragons as he started laughing carefreely…

"Ohohoho, looks like a single punch was all it took? I could swear he was tougher than that!" Laughed the old man, with tremendous muscles, his size was now thirty meters.

"You…!" Nyzzet cried. "W-Who are you?! You're not a normal demon!"

"Who am I? Ohoho… OHOHOHOHO! GYEHEHEHEHE!"

The elderly demon laughed maniacally, his laughter echoing across Ravenfolt's lands…

"I am Lord Satan's left hand." The elderly man said. "Beleth."

"B-Beleth…?"

Nyzzet quickly recognized that name… From the Tales of old times that his mother had once told him, when the invasion of the Hell Gates was at its strongest point.

Leading the army of Satan's mightiest warriors, there was a powerful Demon that had no match, until the Supreme Gods worked together to repel him!

The one that would then be known as the "Two-Faced Calamity".

Beleth!

"The two-faced calamity?!"

Nyzzet's words made Beleth feel slightly flattered by such a nickname.

"Hohoho, do I have such a nickname? Oh, such good ol' times! When we all were battling for supremacy… I've been missing them! I've been waiting thousands of years, millions of years…"

The elderly demon continued walking forwards, his Aura changing constantly between crimson and gold color, but never being both at the same time.

"And at long last, I can satiate my endless desire for destruction. There is no longer any point in holding back and acting nice…" He giggled evilly. "I've been too accustomed to treat Lord Satan and his subjects well, so I sometimes forget I'm also a demon, hohoho!"

Beleth was not only one of the strongest Demon Lords from the Wrath Layer… But he was also Satan's butler, serving him inside of his Castle and also all of his other members of his Demon Lord Alliance.

However, this time, Satan has allowed the old man to finally go crazy… And the reason he was known as two-faced was due to this change in personality he had.

While he could either be a nice old man, or a terrifying, bloodthirsty maniac!

And this also reflected within his power, as his Aura shifted between Golden and Crimson, showing his Gold when he was at peace, making him almost immune to all attacks.

Meanwhile, when it turned Crimson…

His power would skyrocket, and he could break through anything!

"Beleth, huh…?"

However, Luminous voice echoed from far away, his body already on the skies, glancing at the old man from above, he was bleeding from his mouth, but he didn't mind.

"No matter what, I will not let you get through…"

"Hohoho, you've still got some fighting spirit in ya, little lizard?"

As a battle between the two was about to be unleashed, far away, Kireina and her group were moving rapidly towards the Death Tower.

FLUOOOSH!

"Oh?" Kireina suddenly sensed Beleth's presence. "What is this presence?"
