One True God

Chapter 87: Demon Eyes

Lucifer was unable to move when the Patriarch of the Warmester Denoble House activated the Hell Gates and the Great Seals on him, which is why he was taking the full brunt of these two attacks at the same time.

The reason why he was unable to move was obvious, but it was because of his physical condition that has hit at the perfect timing.

And the effects of taking the full brunt of the Hell Gates and the Great Seals at the same time were tremendous.

It was to the point that Lucifer's body was injured all over, and it was also to the point that Lucifer was even unable to produce mana to protect himself or to destroy the Hell Gates and the Great Seals.

Of course, it was because of the mana pressure that the Hell Gates are releasing. It was interfering with Lucifer's mana, making him unable to produce mana physically.

Well, it didn't really matter to Lucifer. If Lucifer was in his normal condition, Lucifer would be able to ignore the effects of the mana pressure of the Hell Gates and still be able to use magic in this situation.

However, in this situation, his physical condition has actually worsened and it has affected even his ability to manifest his mana and to use magic.

And because of his inability to defend himself properly, he was now injured all over his body, and his life...was really in danger now.

Although Lucifer wasn't really that concerned about it, since he was sure that he would be able to get out of this situation safely and defeat the Patriarch of the Warmester Denoble House right away, he could still feel his life was actually being threatened by the Patriarch.

Because of this, Lucifer couldn't help but get angry as his eyes became red due to his wrath alone.

"Fuck...to think that I would actually get injured by a small fry demon...even though it is because of my condition that worsened at the worst timing, this is still unacceptable."

Lucifer spoke as if the darkness that was attacking him all over his body didn't even exist.

Of course, it didn't really hurt Lucifer, but it did injure his body. The pain tolerance of Lucifer was really way over the roof since Lucifer has experienced hell greater than this.

And that was why...it made Lucifer angrier. This Hell Gates and Great Seals were just child's play to him, yet he was still being injured by it.

It didn't do Lucifer justice, and that's what makes him be on the verge of losing himself to anger.

What's more, this situation was also really dangerous as there is no guarantee that Lucifer would be able to move again after the Patriarch of the Warmester Denoble House disables the Hell Gates and the Great Seals and stops his attack.

His body condition worsened and his body has damage accumulated, which would be then another factor for Lucifer to be unable to move even if the attack stops.

That was why...this situation was looking kind of bleak for Lucifer.

"I need to find a way to force my body to move somehow or I would really be in a deep shit," Lucifer said as he began to look all over the darkness, hoping to see if there would be a weakness with it.

Of course, Lucifer was able to see even the tiniest hole in the darkness and even the mana structure that Patriarch needed to make with his mana so that he would be able to use the Hell Gates and Great Seals.

His eyes were truly amazing, but that was not the full extent of his eyes.

Lucifer, a Hell God of the past, naturally had eyes greater than anyone, and it is called the Demon Eyes.

Although it sounds bland and boring since it was literally just 'demon eye,' it didn't really matter since its lethality and strength are the real deal.

One look from these Demon Eyes would be able to kill a demon, and one look from these Demon Eyes would definitely be able to stop someone from using magic.

Of course, Lucifer considered activating his Demon Eyes, but Lucifer knew that this power was still not ready to be used.

It was still lying dormant as it was sealed away due to his body's physical condition.

However, there is a reason why Lucifer even considered activating his Demon Eyes, and that is...

'If I can force myself to activate it even for a second, I would be able to stop this darkness magic or whatever it is called and even kill the Patriarch of the Warmester Denoble House in one fell swoop.'

Right, Lucifer would be able to do all that in just a single second of its use.

Lucifer has already gauged the strength of the Patriarch and knew that the Patriarch wouldn't be able to defend against his Demon Eyes.

The real strong demons would definitely be able to survive from his Demon Eyes, but...the Patriarch of the Warmester Denoble House was just a small fry that didn't even need to be said.

If Lucifer would just be able to activate it, then...his whole problem about being unable to move wouldn't matter since his enemy would be dead and he just needs to wait until his body heals on its own and is able to move again.

However, even though it sounds simple for him to open the Demon Eyes just for a single second, it was actually not since it is very hard for him to do so.

When Lucifer tried to force-open one of his powers before in his mansion, Lucifer suffered some kind of backlash and even coughed up blood before then.

He was still fine at that time even though he coughed up blood, but...who knows if he would be able to stay fine in his current condition, injured all over and on the verge of dying.

If Lucifer is even unable to open the Demon Eyes, it wouldn't be funny since it was almost guaranteed that he would receive the backlash for no results.

"But...it's not like I can just sit still here either. I can already feel my soul going out of my body again," Lucifer said with a flat expression on his face.

And what he said was definitely the truth. He can't just sit still and do nothing as the darkness kills him.

Now that his condition has worsened, it should just be a matter of time until Lucifer really does kick the bucket and die.

"Sigh, after finishing this task and gaining the Warmester Denoble House's organizations and the Warmester Denoble House itself for my own, I would really focus on why my body is like this," Lucifer said as he swore to focus on recovering his body to its original condition and prime.

Of course, since Lucifer has said those words, it was obvious at this point, but he decided to force-open his Demon Eyes.

"This fucker really pushed me this far...I'll commend you on that alone, Patriarch of the Warmester Denoble House," Lucifer said as he closed his eyes.

He could feel his eyes throbbing because of his injuries, and he could feel his blood flowing down his body better for no reason at all.

And that was because Lucifer closed off his senses and just relied on the sense of touch.

However, Lucifer even closed off his sense of touch as he couldn't feel anything at all.

It was weird why he did this in the middle of a battle, and in such a terrible condition, too, but it was because Lucifer was...focusing.

He was focusing on opening his Demon Eyes, and he was doing it with just pure willpower alone.

The reason why his powers were even sealed in the first place is that his body can't keep up with them.

That is the only reason why he couldn't use his powers.

And to open his powers, it would take an immense amount of willpower since that would basically defy his body's current condition just to use his powers.

It was literally going against the river, and Lucifer knew that very well, which is why he was trying so hard to concentrate.

After a few minutes have passed, Lucifer finally made a move as he...smirked!

"However, it seems like this is where the farce finally ends," Lucifer said with that same smirk as his eyes started to glow in the color of...nothing.

However, it was still the truth that his eyes were glowing at this point as even the Patriarch could see some kind of distorted light in the darkness.

"What's happening...?" The Patriarch murmured as he observed the darkness with keen eyes.

However, it was then that Lucifer finally opened his eyes...no, did he really even open his eyes?

His eyelids were definitely open, but Lucifer...didn't have any eyes at all in those eye sockets of his.

And it was weird, but...this...was the form of the Demon Eyes of the Hell God, Lucifer!

And the fact that it appeared here means that...Lucifer succeeded!

"Demon Eyes, activate!" Lucifer shouted out loud and as soon as he did, the Demon Eyes did its work.
