Chapter 803 A Deal With The Devil Gone Wrong
Lucifer stared at the chained SMG from his majestic throne as he spoke
" So human , what do you offer me?"
SMG felt Lucifer's gaze land on him and he tried to meet it , however when he raised his eyes uptil Lucifer's neck he felt himself to be sweating immensely and his body did not have the strength nor the courage to look the devil in the eye as he lowered his gaze and spoke.
" I offer you destruction , of your greatest nemesis ". SMG spoke lightly
Lucifer laughed , it was an evil and sinister laugh that sent shivers down SMG 's spine as he began second guessing this whole venture.
Lucifer said " Trust me mortal , you are not strong enough to even lay a gaze on Archangel Micheal ".
cO,m SMG choked on his words , he had forgotten that Lucifer was a god who had godly enemies and foolishly assumed that he would even consider Rudra to be a threat.
He was a god! A tier 6 being overlooking entire realms ! The devil himself !
Did he even need the help of a puny mortal like him? He began to doubt it ...
After struggling a lot SMG said " I can reveal the plans of the army of death in the near future , giving your forces the edge to beat their plans "
Lucifer grinned as he said " Very well , im hearing ... "
SMG felt a little bit of hope in his heart as he said " I- I have something to ask for in return for the plans .... "
Lucifer stroked his chin and then said " No , you don't .
You will obey , or you will be obliterated to nothing after a lifetime of torture within my dungeons.
I actually find it ridiculous that a human dares to waltz into my capital and tries to strike a deal with me on equal terms.
It seems the world has forgotten the true might of the devil ".
SMG could not believe his ears , he knew for a fact that Dronacharya had struck a deal with the devil to take down Rudra and the devil had indulged him , which was the source of his confidence to come parley in the first place , however things did not go as he wanted them to go.
What SMG did not know was that Dronacharya approached Lucifer the right way , performing a sacrificial ritual and offering the blood of a lot of innocents for the very chance to talk to the devil where he bound him by a system oath which would see him be rewarded only when he completed his service to the devil first!
It was very different to what SMG tried to do , however in his arrogance and haste to make the most of his opportunity, trying to soar to the heavens in one leap he had made a grave miscalculation.
SMG trembled as he could not muster words out of his mouth.
Lucifer walked up from his throne and walked down the steps towards SMG, as he placed one of his legs over SMG's bowed head and flattened it to the floor such that SMG 's skull cracked but he did not kill him then and there , mentaining a painful amount of pressure that would keep him at the edge of his consciousness.
Lucifer said " I will not repeat myself .... Speak! "
SMG felt every cell in his body urging to comply as he spit out the entire plan the army of death had to the devil word for word and even Lucifer was stunned silent by Rudra's unconventional thinking and genius.
The other tier 5 demons present in the room too were speechless as the plan was recited as even the first demon commander praised Rudra as a ' Genius ' by the end of it.
This was important information indeed and as a reward Lucifer lifted his feet from over SMG's head as he said " You came here from your own free will but you will leave here as a slave of mine.
Starting today your flesh , your bones and your very soul belongs to me the devil and in exchange for the power you desired i shall take it! "
Flicking his fingers Lucifer poured his divinity into SMG 's body as the assassin writhed and screamed in pain.
His level was forcefully raised and his free-will simultaneously eroded as he was turned into a puppet of Lucifer's will by the time his power reached the tier 5 realm.
His skin burnt and his appearance turned from an middle aged man to a semi fiend as with his charred black skin ,blood red eyes and half broken teeth he looked nothing like the elder of the elites he was a few days ago.
The alert at the cuber corporation subsequently subsided as SMG was killed alongside a pod explosion in real life , his only remnant being in Omega as the slave of the devil Lucifer.
With a new puppet slave and a read on the enemy's upcoming plans the demons started to prepare a counter , and with the elites being none the wiser , it was decided that the first commander himself was going to lead the raid to kill Rudra for once and for all on the shores of river Thames.
What was supposed to be an easy fight was going to turn into a bloodbath for the army of death as the first commander planned to turn river Thames red with human blood when the attack finally started.

( Meanwhile at cuber corp )
Gaia was currently being inspected by the queen as it reported an anamoly to the higher power.
Gods weren't supposed to excercise their will into reality in Omega, the game was designed to incorporate their personalities as close to the original as possible however they were supposed to still work within the constructs of the game and function as a sort of NPC in the large picture.
However Lucifer 's actions today violated those guidelines and Gaia was forced to report.
Lucifer seemed to have been agitated to the extreme , and the devil's in-game character was no longer working along the lines of the game's constructs , breaking free of the laws and pressing his will against the universal AI.
After examination the queen tightened the game's security code and added an extra layer of protection to the game's neural link to players to avoid the incident from repeating , however for this particular instance the anamoly was allowed to pass .
