Aman had no time to contemplate , but he was really tired of living his life in hiding. He had carefully schemed for his grand return to Hazelgroove kingdom . Rallying his troops from the time he got news that Hazelgroove kingdom was having a war.
Using the terrain?knowledge of the kingdom , he was able to avoid areas with massive population to move undercover. Added with the fact that most of the troops were called over from all over the kingdom towards the capital . It was safe to say that the security of the kingdom was not top notch at the moment.
Also the few that did discover him , were not left alive to tell the tale.
His goal was to finish the unfinished task of absorbing Mazikeen's powers to ascend , but even though he succeeded in that , unfortunately for him he could not ascend to tier 5. Apparently the forbidden technique was only efficient in absorbing a maximum of 50% of the enemy's powers uptill the power balance existed.
Hence for every level that he gained , Mazikeen lost two , untill their level difference became 0 and Mazikeen was reduced to tier 4.
But tier 4 was not enough for Aman to contend with his father , which meant that everything he did uptill now was for naught. And that he would have to run for his life like a mice being chased by an eagle , which he was extremely reluctant to do.
Making up his mind , Aman dared to challenge god himself , as he put his hand on the stone statue , using the forbidden spell to try steal Lucifer's powers!

( Meanwhile on hell's throne )
Lucifer was having wine on his throne as he was amused by the scenes of humans fighting amongst themselves. Even though he was not fighting himself and could only watch the entertainment from behind a screen , just that alone had a massive effect on the weak human ants who got a massive debuff.
But overall the war was not very interesting for Lucifer who was dissapointed once he saw how strong cerventez had became and how inadequate his pawn Mazikeen was to deal with him , Lucifer became uninterested in the fight. It was not like he cared about tier 5 kids anyway , the only reason he paid special attention to Cervantez was because the had Angel blood in his veins.
Lucifer was however greatly amused by sariel's son struggling on the battlefield and the arrival of the brat Aman. But what made him really chuckle was the fact that Aman tried to steal his powers.
Lucifer did not understand wether to laugh or to laugh like a madman , as he found the actions of the human brat too entertaining. Just a frog who doesn't know how high the summit of power was and who he was trying to steal power from.
The lord of darkness and the supreme ruler of all demonkind , the one labelled Evil lord Satan , the one the seven sins bow heads before , the fallen angel Lucifer , the brat was trying to forcefully take HIS POWERS?
Initially Lucifer felt like instantly taking over Aman's body , and using it to hunt cerventez and sariel's son and drink their blood . But then he felt like humoring the kid a little and let him taste a piece of true power.
Lucifer was sure that even a sliver of his true mana would probably fry the brats mana circuit and corrupt his body with darkness forever , it would be intense suffering for Aman , but for Lucifer it would be fun to watch , and it's not like he could not kill Cervantez later with a fried body .
Hence Lucifer decided to send just a sliver of his true mana to Aman along with a message of " Know your place .... MORTAL ! ".

( Meanwhile Rudra's POV)
With cerventez on the cloud occasionally lending out one or two sword strikes to wipe thousands , the tide of the battle changed completely.
The demon's were nearly completely annihilated , as they could not be spotted on the battlefield unless one looked really hard . And the undead were quickly loosing numbers as well , as it looked as if the end was near.
Rudra estimated that at the current rate it would take him half n hour more to wipe the entire undead forces , hence he went into powersaving mode. As just as this fight was going to be finished , he was going to personally go hunt prince Aman.
He did not care that Aman was tier 4 and wayy Stronger than him , at worst he would die , loose experience and wake up in the church of light. But not before sending a solar beam through Aman's gut.
He was not finishing this war untill he did that!
However Rudra was not aware of the changes occuring inside the person he was silently cursing. As Lucifers true mana of darkness entered the body of Aman , compatible with the aura of death , it created a result that even Lucifer did not expect.
The two energies were somewhat symbiotic and resonated amongst each other , spiking the mana levels inside Aman's body to unprecedented highs, as the divinity inside Aman's blood was triggered which started to counter the aura of death by the aura of life preventing Aman from exploding from excess energy.
Micheal , the strongest angel suddenly felt a connection , as he looked down from the heavens , as a power much similar to his own was awakened in a mortal.
Immediately Micheal knew that this human was some form of descendant of his , but upon inspecting he felt gloomy as he realized that Lucifer was looking right at him with an evil grin.
His descendants was apparently trying to steal Lucifer's powers , and Micheal did not understand wether he should be happy at the kids courage. Or beat him for his stupidity , as the brat was quite literally dancing with the devil.
