Chapter 560: So, It’s an Acquaintance....

Although Roy didn’t know how long this fusion ritual would take, he knew that it would definitely not be short.
It was precisely because of the trust they had established in their earlier cooperation that Lilith entrusted the heavy responsibility of protecting the Red Sea Egg to Roy. Roy himself wanted to see what kind of existence the Deadly Sin level was, so he was guarding patiently above the moon.
In fact, when the Liliths came through the World Gates, Roy had made a very important discovery: Lilith was probably not a demon!
Moreover, not only was she not a demon, but she might not be an angel either. Even though most of her clones were demons and angels, these were probably forms that her clones had evolved into in special environments. According to Lilith, she was born earlier than angels and demons. On the contrary, angels and demons were born from her body!
Her uniqueness determined that her clones could appear in two different racial forms, angel and demon…
Similarly, Roy deduced that she could also display racial forms such as titans and dragons.
In other words, she might be the true mother of all races. Hmm, it might be an exaggeration to say all races… But at least the races created by the Creator might be related to her!
After realizing this, Roy was very curious. He didn’t know what the original Lilith looked like, and he would only know the moment she completed the fusion ritual and came out.
The ritual had already lasted for half an hour. During this half an hour, there were tremendous movements in the material world. Roy was tense, and his perception was constantly sweeping the nearby space. Since Lilith said that someone would appear, it would definitely happen.
Roy estimated that even if Mephisto and the other demon kings were hiding in the crevice space where Trag’Oul was, they should be able to sense this distortion in the material world. But Lilith was probably right. Mephisto was old and shrewd. When Roy and Lilith attacked the Burning Hells, he had hidden, so there was no reason for him to dare to appear now.
With this thought, Roy suddenly had a thought. Could Mephisto have seen what was happening to Lilith through his seerpower? Or did he see the scene ofLilith returning to the Deadly Sin level? If that’s the case, then they aren’t simply trying to blind her seer eyes but are being cowardly for a reason.
While Roy was thinking, he suddenly felt spatial fluctuations in his perception. Moreover, these spatial fluctuations felt very familiar. They were the fluctuations of a World Gate opening.
There were creatures from another world wanting to enter this world…
Roy raised his head and looked at the space above him. The spatial fluctuations were coming from a place not far from the sun. He didn’t move rashly. Lilith had said it ambiguously, so he didn’t know how many creatures would be attracted by the huge commotion of the ritual. He could only stay on the moon and wait for the other party to appear.
As the spatial fluctuations reached a critical point, a new World Gate opened. This time, Roy didn’t even need to consciously sense it because even the naked eye could see it open.
When the vortex of the spatial channel formed, golden light immediately came from the other side. This golden light quickly dyed the entire spatial channel, turning the vortex golden. Then the vortex continuously expanded. At the same time, a large number of complex and exquisite golden inscriptions appeared and slowly rotated around the vortex.
This opened World Gate was actually a Gate of Heaven!
Soul-stirring chanting came from the other side of the Gate of Heaven and instantly resounded throughout space. There was clearly no medium for sound to travel in space, but Roy still heard the chanting. Not only him, but even the people on Sanctuary heard it.
Powerful holy light power spread out from the Gate of Heaven, and a tall figure slowly emerged in space. This figure floated in space and slowly spread the six wings condensed from golden holy flames behind him!
This was an Archangel. When he appeared, the commotion was astonishing. From Roy’s perspective, the golden light blooming was as dazzling and eye-catcmng as a smaller star appearing Deslae tne sun.
Due to being too far away, Roy couldn’t see what this new Archangel looked like, but the strong pressure exuded from the other party made him realize that this Archangel was not simple.
Archangels corresponded to demon kings, but just like how there were strong and weak demon kings, it was the same for Archangels. Just the pressure of this Archangel who came out of the Gate of Heaven made Roy feel that he was much stronger than Imperius.
Moreover, what Roy cared about the most was that the aura of this Archangel was vaguely familiar…
After coming out of the Gate of Heaven, the Archangel naturally noticed the distortions in this material world and realized the source of the distortions. The next second, the Gate of Heaven closed, and the Archangel turned into a golden stream of light that instantly arrived above the moon.
This was true light speed, so fast that Roy couldn’t react in time. He felt that the other party had appeared above his head in the blink of an eye.
Roy looked at the Archangel in front of him in a daze. Like Imperius and the others, he had no face. Under the hood of the Archangel’s robe was a blurry shadow, but Roy immediately recognized who it was from the cross-shaped angelic sword burning with raging holy flames in his hand and the lily patterns engraved on the hem of his battle robe.
“It’s actually you?!” Roy had a strange expression and a faint grin on his face. “Gabriel?!”
Yes, there was only one Archangel who used lilies as his symbol, and this was Gabriel. Roy had a deep impression of his appearance.
The golden holy flame wings hundreds of meters behind Gabriel fluttered gently. After hearing Roy’s soul transmission, he slowly turned his head. Although he didn’t have a face, his line of sight still locked onto Roy under his hood. He looked at Roy strangely and said in puzzlement, “I’ve confirmed that I haven’t seen you before, demon! Report your name!”
Roy’s current appearance was too different from when he was a low-rank demon, so he didn’t expect Gabriel to remember him. Moreover, Roy still remembered that when Gabriel first appeared in front of him, he didn’t say anything and directly attacked.
“Of course you don’t remember me!” Roy grinned sinisterly and touched his chest slightly. “After all, I was just an ant to you back then. At that time, I was really indebted to you for your ‘care’!”
Gabriel didn’t say anything. From Roy’s tone, he could tell that this demon had a grudge against him. But who was he? He was Gabriel! Gabriel, the Left Hand of God! Over hundreds of millions of years, the total number of demons he had killed could circle the universe. It could be said that there were countless demons with grudges against him!
But sensing Roy’s powerful demon king-level strength, even Gabriel had to be cautious. After all, since this demon could become a demon king, he was probably a famous existence in the Abyss. He carefully sized Roy up again and tried his best to recall, but he finally confirmed that he had never seen him.
It couldn’t be helped. Demons were like this. Often, after not seeing each other for a while, they could change drastically. This was also why angels had been using the Book of Truth to record the true names of demons. Their appearances might change, but their true names would not.
“My name is Osiris!” Roy didn’t let him think for too long and directly said his name.
“Huh?!” After Gabriel heard this name, the golden holy light emanating from him couldn’t help fluctuating, showing how shocked he was.
Of course, Gabriel knew Roy’s demon name because he had an impression of every demon that could be recorded in the Book of Truth. He was one of the recorders, and he had a deep impression of the name Osiris!
After all, when this name was recorded, it was when Void power completely corroded the creation titan of the world of Ashan. Ashan had already been destroyed, and the remaining Void disaster still took up a portion of Eden’s forces. This was the first time Gabriel had heard the name Osiris, so he naturally had a deep impression.
However, in Gabriel’s memories, this had happened a few days ago (for long-lived species like angels, more than ten years was really just a few days) But he remembered very clearly that the demon name Osiris had a prefix— demon lord!
Gabriel’s tone revealed surprise. “How is that possible? Weren’t you a demon lord back then? How did you advance to the demon king level in such a short time?!”
In Gabriel’s understanding of demons, which demon lord didn’t need thousands or even tens of thousands of years to advance to demon king? Therefore, he really didn’t believe that what Roy said was true. Demons had always been cunning creatures, so he couldn’t rule out the possibility that this guy in front of him was deliberately using the name of another demon to mislead him.
“It’s up to you whether you believe it or not!” Roy spread his wings and slowly changed his body shape to reveal his Chaos Body. As he spread his wings, Auriel, who had been lying on his shoulder, also spread her wings of despair, and her strange eyes stared at Gabriel.
It wasn’t until this moment that Gabriel noticed Auriel on Roy’s shoulder. Previously, he had also seen her on Roy’s shoulder, but because the aura emanating from Auriel was very dark and negative, he didn’t pay much attention to it, thinking that it was a part of Roy’s body. But when she spread her six wings of despair, Gabriel finally recognized that this strange existence was a fallen angel!
“What did you do to her?!” Gabriel was finally angry. He raised the holy flame sword in his hand and questioned Roy.
“Can’t you tell?” Roy sneered. “She was corroded by the Void, and I saved her life! Or do you angels all think that it’s the demons’ fault that you fall?”
“Hmph! I don’t want to hear your sophistry!” Gabriel snorted coldly and wanted to fight Roy.
But at this moment, the Red Sea Egg on the moon below emitted a pulsation again. The disturbance spread, causing Gabriel to stop his movements.
Although the demon in front of him indeed made him angry, he didn’t forget his purpose for coming here. He had opened a Gate of Heaven from the distant Eden and came here because he had sensed the abnormal distortions of this world. Moreover, before coming, he had specially checked and found that this world had a high-level military outpost with several powerful Archangels here. But when he tried to contact the leaders of this world, he unexpectedly found no response.
Realizing that something huge might have happened to this world, Gabriel personally came…
