"A Devil King! Which Devil King has descended upon our Phoenix Family?"
Countless people were both shocked and furious, their faces filled with horror.
As one of the pure-blooded families, their Phoenix Family held an extremely revered status.
Since the ancient war, this was the first time someone had come knocking on their door.
Some people subconsciously looked up.
They only saw a handsome figure, dressed like an ancient noble, hovering in the air.
"Unknown Devil King, may I ask the purpose of your visit to our Phoenix Family?"
Leval, bringing Ryser with him, rose into the air and bowed to Alex: "May I know the reason for your visit?"
Although angry,
his posture was very humble.
"I'm here for him."
Alex looked down, gazing at Ryser beside him.
Leval glared fiercely at his younger brother, then said in a deep voice: "I don't know where Ryser offended Your Excellency; he and I apologize together to Your Excellency."
"No need."
Alex smiled slightly: "I just want his life."
His voice was devoid of emotion.
But all who heard it felt a chill run down their spines.
The calmness in his voice was as if he were about to crush an ant.
Buzz!
In an instant, Leval's magic power surged.
A dark red Magic Circle expanded from small to large, transforming into a visible Barrier that completely enveloped the entire Phoenix Castle.
Leval said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Your Excellency, why do you wish to kill Ryser?"
"Rias is my woman; why do you think?"
"..."
Seeing Leval fall silent, Ryser, however, shouted: "Big brother, stop wasting words with him."
"I've already sent a message; help will arrive soon, and then we can definitely tear him to shreds..."
"Shut up."
His words were cut short by Leval.
Leval quickly bowed: "Your Excellency, this matter can be discussed."
"It could have been, but not anymore."
"Super Magic: Lightning Strike"
The moment his voice fell, brilliant light appeared in the sky, forming a vast Magic Circle.
Crack!
Mighty lightning descended from the sky, unleashing immense power.
Boom!
Accompanied by a deafening roar, the huge Barrier shone brightly under the power of the lightning, and visible tremors began to appear.
Countless people in Phoenix Castle turned pale, feeling their eardrums ringing.
"Hahaha, don't you see? With this Barrier, your attack is completely meaningless."
Ryser laughed wildly, staring intently at Alex.
Alex's silence was his only response.
Only his gaze grew colder.
Buzz!
Crimson light shone, and the boosted gear immediately manifested.
"Boosted!"
A low voice echoed, and Alex's power instantly surged several times.
"The boosted gear?"
Leval's face changed drastically, and he quickly said: "Your Excellency, please hear me out."
His response was an even mightier bolt of lightning descending from the sky.
Boom!
Accompanied by a deafening roar.
Under a lightning strike that was several times stronger, the Barrier enveloping the entire castle exploded.
Ryser's face had just shown a look of terror when his entire body was completely engulfed by the lightning.
"Ah ah ah..."
Screams of agony were endless, then covered by countless roars.
Bang!
Ryser fell limply from the sky, crashing heavily onto the ground.
His entire body was like charcoal, yet he was still not dead.
"I possess the bloodline of the Phoenix, that is a true Undying Body; you can't kill me."
Ryser stared intently at Alex, still shouting defiantly.
"Is that so?"
Alex's expression was indifferent, his clear black and white eyes turning completely dark.
The power of his Eye of Destruction made Ryser and Leval instinctively tremble.
Buzz!
A flash of dark light disappeared in an instant.
Ryser's body vanished into thin air.
This was the Eye of Destruction; even the soul would be annihilated by it.
Having done all this, Alex looked at Leval.
"Your Excellency, please spare us."
Leval showed his submission with the noble etiquette of an ancient devil.
"Ryser greatly offended you; his death is not to be regretted."
"As the next head of the Phoenix Family, I am also partly to blame, but I hope Your Excellency can spare our family."
"For this, our Phoenix Family can pay any price."
So pragmatic?
Alex's eyes flickered, and he spoke: "In that case, I want Ravel Phoenix."
