"Is she... dead?"
His excitement was broken by Nacht's voice who asked Alex.
Alex paused and g him before he nodded his head. After that, he turo Charlotte and others who were seriously injured. He lifted his hand and immediately cast 'Healing Magic' over them.
A warm ale light appeared from his palm and slowly nded on the girls who could feel a warm current flowing through their bodies.
Nacht was dumbfouo find that the wounds on their bodies were slowly rec at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"You use 'Healing Magic' too?"
Nacht was finally left speechless, staring at Alex and w if there was really something that the Magic Emperor could actually not do at all.
Alex ignored his gaze and refused to give him an answer as he closed his eyes and slowly observed the situation otlefield.
With Megid Vanica dead, Dante... fet about that weakling, only Zenon was still alive and kig.
But his dition was not much better than his two siblings.
Yuno was fag the wounded Zenon while floating in the air. Both of his grimoires were floating in front of Yuno as he cshed with Zenon, hurting him again and again.
Faced with Yuno at his full strength, in all the glory of his 100% devil power form, Zenoire life fshed before his eyes, prior to being a devil host.
'No...' His thoughts echoed out as memories from his past pyed out.
If his best friend... If Allen could see him now... How would he feel?
Would he bme him for his death?
Would he detest what he had bee?
Would he uand?
~~Fshback~~
Years ago...
In order to kill a low-ranking devil that had been sealed in a duhat they were iigating... In order to stop that thing from esg and wiping out the rest of his rades from the Mage Defense Ford to stop it from endangering the rest of the Spade Kingdom, Zenon made the ultimate decision.
While his childhood friend Allen rao fight the devil head-on... While its attention was focused solely on him... Zenon unleashed the stro spell he had in his arsenal determio end this ond for all.
But Allen was also hit, impaled through his back.
Impaling him through the back with a rge bone spike that split into several brahat pierced the devil in its head, chest, and torso. He finally mao take it down.
On that day, he saved the kingdom at the cost of his best friend.
"ARRGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!"
He remembered screaming as tears poured down his face.
'If only I was STRONGER!'
'If only I wasn't so WEAK!'
'If I only had more POWER!'
Without power... her emotions nor willpower meant a damn thing.
In order to protect the things that you value, he wanted overwhelming power.
~~Fshbads~~
No... I'm n... All the sacrifices I've made... All the things that I've done... If I lost now...
It would all mean nothing.
Inside Zenon's Subsciousness
"Bwahahahaha... First to that crazy human and now to another human? I feel disappointed, Zenon. As my host how are you not embarrassed?"
T over him, Beelzebub ughed and shook his head.
"I get how you lost to that uy, his magic is something that even Megicu was ied in. But tur human? While wielding 100% of my power? Tch, tch, tch. You're making me look bad."
"Y'know, I remember back when you were nothing more than a sniveling weakling begging for a crumb of my power. Something about that dead friend of yours right? What was his name again?..."
"BEELZEBUB!" Zenon stared him down with an ice-cold gre.
"Oh?" The devil observed his crazy expression and grinned in delight. "So you still have some fight left in you?... GOOD."
Ign him and reposing himself, Zenon remembered what he was here to do.
"I want to make another deal."
"Hehehe...." Beelzebub chuckled. "And what will you offer me this time?"
"Everything."
"...What?" Beelzebub frowned unsure if he had heard him correctly.
"You heard me. As per our tract, as long as the Spade tiing, I'll give you everything. My body, my mind, even my soul, it's all yours."
"...BWAHAHAHAHA...!! GOOD GOOD GOOD!! I ACCEPT!!" Beelzebub was very happy to accept such a deal after all he had been waiting for it for such a long time.
"Now tell me Zenon Zogratis! What do you want iurn?!"
"A Devil's Heart... Give it to me." Zenon replied with a solemn expression.
"Very well." The devil grinned and agreed.
Outside, Yuno prepared his spell, ready to strike Zenon but he suddenly paused in his tracks.
Badmp!
"!!!"
'This feeling... It is just like that time in the Shadow Pace.'
Badmp!
'Allen!'
Badmp!
'I would not let your sacrifice be in vain!'
Swallowed in a current of dark and twisted ive mana, Zenon now bearing a devil's heart and gaining a neearaood before them.
His presence... It was devastating!
Wielding the powers of a devil and bearing a devil's heart, the human devil that the two had fought against had died. The thing that stood in front of them now.
It was a true DEVIL!
Alex chuckled when he felt the new power radiating from Zenon's body but even then he was not scared for Yuno sihe tter was also hiding his real strength, not going all out till now.
'Go and fight to your heart's tent, Yuno. o hold back at all. Now, that Zogratis will make a good sparring partner for you. Hehe...'
'Status!' Alex grinned and called out his status as the game ehe final phase.

"Hehe... let's go and deal with Morris now before he pulls something ued. I wonder what type of facial expression he will make when he realizes the truth."
Alex muttered under his breath and disappeared from his spot, telep away to his location.
