Ancient God in the Modern World

"Corrupted human, your time has come. On behalf of our Lord, the Divine Spirit of Life and Death, the Divine Spirit of War and Glory had commanded me to arrest you. Surrender…or die!"

Jeremy proudly declared in front of Joachim.

Although he knew that this might not necessarily make him surrender, he still felt good about it.

Who would have thought that the Lord that saved him back at the camp is a Divine Spirit?

When he learned about it, his faith explosively rose, and become a knight in an instant with a chance of becoming a grand knight.

"A knight?" Joachim observed Jeremy.

Meanwhile, Jeremy did not waste any second and attacked with his lance while using one of the skills that he had learned as a knight.

"Holy Shock!"

Whoosh!

His lance was covered with lightning and as he hit the man was electrocuted.

Joachim is unable to dodge because Jeremy's speed was boosted by lightning to a certain degree.

However, things did not end there. With his lance, Jeremy continued to hit Joachim giving him a chain of attacks.

Thud! Thud!

Meanwhile, as Joachim recovered, he immediately spiritualized himself, avoiding Jeremy's fatal attacks. However, the lightning from his holy shock still damaged him.

"Shit!"

At this moment, Joachim knew that he had met a rather strong enemy.

"Demon Claw!"

Thus, the coated his hand with demonic energy and approached Jeremy.

"Let's see what will happen to you if I touch you."

He though.

However, in the next second, he paled as Jeremy disappeared from his location. Then, he felt pain in his back.

"Hmm…that did not kill you?"

Jeremy was stunned by Joachim's vitality.

Just now, he strikes him with his lance coated with faith energy, and lightning.

Meanwhile, Joachim used his remaining strength and propelled himself away from Jeremy's lance. Then, in the next second, he disappeared.

"Escaping?"

At this moment, Joachim knew that he cannot fight him head-on. His ability is perfectly counted by Jeremy's attack.

Although his ability is formidable against physical attacks, he is vulnerable to elemental attacks. Furthermore, since he was now corroded with demonic energy, the opponent's attack is rather fatal for him.

Meanwhile, Jeremy did not pursue him. Instead, he sat down.

"Hehe! Fleeing from me would only Seal your fate further."

After a while, he stood and began heading in a certain direction while holding his lance in his shoulders.

…

Boom!

Meanwhile, as Joachim fled from Jeremy, he found himself inside an array operated by Divine energy.

"What the heck? Who placed this here?"

He asked.

However, there is no one to answer his question. Furthermore, the array did not care about him and activated as soon as he entered.

In the next moment, he found himself in an unfamiliar hall filled with Divine energy.

Indeed, the array just not is a teleportation array. With the help of the angels and of course, Allen, it is easy to replicate the teleportation array with Divine energy.

"Child, why did you surrender to a Demon?"

An overbearing voice reverberated in the air. The voice made him extremely uncomfortable and fearful.

"The Demon would only exploit you and leave you broken."

In the next second, a man came out from the hall's door.

The man is none other than the Divine Spirit of War and Glory. He asked the saints to bring him a living contracted human of a Demon.

"Order!"

In the next second, he forcefully put an order in the chaotic soul of the poor man just as how Allen forcefully purified him.

When he succeeded, he took out the make that Dor'gan had placed and sealed it.

"My Lord, I think the Demons are up to something," he then said.

If one based on the common logic, he was not talking to anyone. However, in truth, he is talking to Allen, the Divine Spirit of Life and Death.

"I think so too…" Allen's voice resonated in the hall as he replied.

…

Meanwhile, Jeremy arrived at one of the buildings inside the base.

At this moment, he looked like a Nouveau Riche man. He entered the building where Joachim acquired the contract, the same building where Dor'gan resides.

When he entered, the building felt rather creepy. Although it has the elegance from the luxurious furniture. Jeremy knew that there is more than what meets the eye.

Well, he is not oblivious that this is where the Demon of gluttony resides.

Drew knew using the mark that he had placed on the Demons.

Jeremy booked a room in the hotel for a week.

"10 000C for a night, sir!"

He was shocked by the price per night. However, considering that this place is very luxurious, it is not surprising.

Of course, although he was shocked, he did his best to act normal. After all, he is playing the role of a rich man.

"Here, take it," he said as he sent plenty of credits to the attendant.

Of course, the money is not his. It was given by the Warbringer Auction House for their collaboration.

After that, he headed to his room. But, he did not enter. Instead, he took out his lance and began locating the Demon.

Floor by floor, he looked for the Demon's traces.

"According to sir Drew, the Demon is located to the place with dense demonic energy."

However, he could not detect demonic energy in the floors that he had gone to until…

"Demonic energy? The Demon must be on this floor."

…e reached the 512th floor. Furthermore, it is very thick.

"That way."

He followed the demonic energy and arrived in front of a door.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

His heart is thumping as he could feel thick demonic energy from the other side of the door.

Bang!

In the next second, he did not hesitate to violently open the door which revealed the very same Demon that Drew chased.

"Young man, are you the one who finished Joachim?" the Demon asked as he looked at him.

Judging by the way how the demon acted, it seemed that he is expecting him.
