Overgeared

Dog’s Mouth. This was what ignorant bastards called the 20th Hell. This place where rocks that melted into fire formed barriers was the site for a myth. This was what people often thought of as the entrance to hell, the gate of hell guarded by Cerberus.

“It is Ronove again?” The bleak voice heard in the great hall belonged to the 20th great demon, Eligos. It felt like winter was coming, but hell had no winter.

“Yes... He lost his body and his castle was occupied.”

“I thought it would be different this time?”

Eligos sat on the throne in dark armor and the pressure he gave off was as fierce as a flame and as sharp as a blade. The vicious chill made all the demonkin tremble. An existence that gained the darkness that symbolized wickedness and evil.

The black knight Eligos who denied life. He was one of the strongest in hell and death was the only path he walked. This was why he could reign as the master of Dog’s Mouth. There were many great demons who praised and worshipped Dog’s Mouth as the real hell but all of them died without taking away Dog’s Mouth from the Black Knight.

“He disappointed me twice.”

The 27th great demon Ronove was greatly disgraced in the attack on the human world a few years ago. He said he would release red fog to create a plague in the human world but he returned as a rag. He had told the demons who mocked his ridiculous appearance that the reason for his defeat was the intervention of a small god.

A small god. The indigenous god of a particular region. They were very weak compared to the gods of Asgard but considering that most of a great demon’s power was sealed in the human world, Eligos turned a blind eye to Ronove’s defeat. He ignored it when Ronove still claimed to be his right arm.

It was a mistake. He should’ve killed Ronove. In hell, not the human world, Ronove was defeated by humans and had his castle taken away.

“Don’t give Ronove a chance to be reborn.”

“That guy has tarnished the honor of the lord!” Eligos’ subordinates shouted.

Grrr. The cerberus also breathed roughly in what seemed to be agreement.

Eligos nodded. “Go and find Ronove’s soul. Then seal all the gates to the river. His soul will suffer forever.”

“Yes!”

The reason why Dog’s Mouth was called the real hell was because it was the gateway where the souls of the dead gathered. It was the place that was the background of a myth for a reason. There wasn’t an exaggeration in the rumor that Eligos’s authority was second to Baal.

Eligos frowned as he watched the hundreds of demons and demonkin leave to search for Ronove’s soul.

“Marbas will come soon...”

Marbas, who claimed to be a devoted servant of Yatan. He drifted through hell in the name of Yatan and hell, breeding demonkin and demonic creatures. The ignorant ones saw Marbas as hell’s guardian but Eligos didn’t like Marbas very much. He questioned if Marbas’ power actually helped hell.

Eligos remembered it clearly. Marbas had used his breeding power in every area where the former Demon Slayer, Alex appeared. He said he did it to get rid of Alex but what was the result? Every time Marbas used the power of breeding, Alex grew rapidly. He didn’t dare cross the Dog’s Mouth but in the end, he became strong enough to challenge Baal. It was truly a strange thing.

‘No matter how I think about it... I would rather Marbas not come.’

A world message popped up whenever a great demon was killed. If the great demon was killed in hell then it even specifically stated this.

The world was in turmoil.
