Zongman: A journey through time starting from the Supreme

"Well, let's go back first."

"Grayfia, tell the maids to get ready when we get back. We are going to have a proper celebration this time."

“Since Sirzechs won first place in the competition, we should also hold a banquet.”

Gremory said in a brisk tone, with a faint smile of joy on the corner of his mouth.

"Yes, Lord Gremory, I will have the many maids prepare when I return."

Grayfia, who was wearing a maid uniform, folded her hands in front of her, closed her eyes slightly, and spoke respectfully.

……

Demons have different physiques from humans, they don't need to rest and sleep every day.

This victory and grand event was a rare moment of joy for the demon clan in hundreds of years.

After winning, Sirzechs and his companions did not go home directly, but participated in an action similar to a flower street parade.

After a whole night of cheering in the demon capital Lilith, the next morning, four new young demon kings, led by Sirzechs, came to the central meeting hall of Lilith.

Under the watchful eyes of the current parliamentarians and in a live broadcast to the entire demon community, Sirzechs and his companions took over the position of Demon King and from then on became the new four Demon Kings of the demon community.

Until they die or abdicate, the title of the Four Demon Lords will belong to them.

Even though this title does not have any real power for the time being and is just an empty name, as long as the 997 political system of the devil remains unchanged, as long as Serzex and his men have enough skills and abilities.

They can use this name to get the rights they need.

……

At night, Sirzechs, Ajeka and Serafla all came to the Gremory mansion to participate in this new celebration.

Sirzechs and Ajeka already have an ambiguous relationship, and Ajeka is already considered a family member to the Gremory family.

The Sidi family, where Serafla is located, has always had a good relationship with the Gremory family, and the two families often visit each other.

Therefore, the three newly appointed demon kings all gathered here to receive the blessings from the two heads of the Gremory family.

"Sirzex Lucifer, oh, this name is still not as nice as Gremory."

Gremory kept rambling, as if he was very unhappy about Sirzechs needing to change his name.

Sirzechs saw his mother's unyielding attitude, so he bowed slightly and said with a smile: "Sirzechs Lucifer Gremory, this should be my name, mother."

"In my heart, the name of Gremory is a more noble surname than the name of the devil Lucifer. How can I abandon him?"

When Gremory heard what Sirzechs said, she became happy, because the name Gremory was given by Saigo.

For the 72 Demon God families, they are all proud of the nobility of their names, which is irreplaceable and sacred.

Because of this name, from their father Zarathustra! .

Chapter 61: Devil's Chess Piece

"Sirzex Lucifer, Seraphlu Leviathan, and Ajeka Beelzebub..."

"Hearing your current names makes me miss the old days."

Gremory sighed.

I still remember that hundreds of years ago, the four great demon kings were still around, not to mention the disputes between the Demon King faction and their Demon God faction at that time.

However, the combined strength of the four great demon kings and the seventy-two demon gods makes the entire demon world at the top.

Apart from the heaven back then, there is almost no force that can fight against the devil alone.

However, after that great war, the two worlds and three races all declined, and now they are barely surviving to avoid being swallowed up by other forces.

Although the hatred among the three tribes still exists, they are just minor fights and there are no large-scale wars.

Even the death of a strong man is extremely rare.

A war with heavy casualties ended up with peace. It's really ridiculous when you think about it.

“Well, let’s not dwell on the past. Sirzechs, you got what you wanted, and now you should celebrate.”

"Hurry up and come to the table to eat!"

Following Gremory's call, rows of maids brought a sumptuous dinner to the table.

At the top were Saigo and Gremory, with Ophis sitting next to them.

As the Infinite Dragon God, Ophis, in fact, the demons don't know her real name at all, and they only know the name "Lilith".

Therefore, when Saigo and Gremory mentioned the name Orpheus, neither Sirzechs nor Ajeka had any reaction, and just thought that this was an old friend of the two elders.

"Hehe, I'm also a Leviathan now. When the time comes, I'm going to find Aunt Leviathan and ask her to give me something good."

"On the other hand, am I also her daughter now?"

Seraphlu said cheerfully, this little girl is always so shameless and never knows what shame and shame are.

Even after becoming the so-called Demon King, she remained the same as before, and the word "stable" is completely incompatible with her.

"Leviathan? She's so poor that we paid for the place she lives in now."

"Even if you go to her to ask for something, she has no property except for selling herself to you."

When Saigo heard what Seraflor said, he just smiled.

Seraphlu widened her eyes and said, "...Aunt Leviathan is so miserable? She is such a pitiful demon king."

"Oh no, I have inherited the name of Leviathan now. Will I be cursed and become a pauper in the future?"

Seraphlu became worried, her whole body was filled with anxiety.

"Your Aunt Leviathan is not moved by external things and has no material needs, which is why she is penniless."

"I have written down what you said. I will tell your Aunt Leviathan when the time comes. As for how she will teach you a lesson, no one will know."

Saigo also treats Serafla as his own daughter, or in other words, the descendants of the seventy-two demon families are his bloodline.

If we really count by generation, he should be of the same generation as Serafla's great-grandfather.

"Ah, Master Saigo, please don't tell Aunt Leviathan what I said, or she will really beat me up."

Serafla's entire body suddenly wilted, and she pleaded pitifully.

Her pitiful puppy-like appearance made others laugh.

Saigo looked at Sirzechs at this time and said jokingly: "... maybe you can go find the Lucifer family."

"You have already inherited the name of Lucifer. Go ask them for some items that Lucifer used back then. They should be able to give them to you."

When Sirzechs heard Saigo's words, he smiled bitterly and said, "...Father, please stop teasing me. If I really dare to go to the Lucifer family to ask for something, I think they will beat me to death on the spot."

Lucifer also left behind descendants, his son was named Li Zevim.

However, Li Zevim has always been a very low-key person, and there are almost no rumors about his name in the entire demon community.

It's just that because he inherited the name of Lucifer and is Lucifer's direct bloodline, he can be said to be the true top second generation of demons, and with the help of this bloodline, he lives very comfortably among the demon group.

Especially since the Lucifer family hardly ever participated in the affairs of the old Demon King faction, and they kept a very low profile overall. This made some demons not even aware that there were any direct bloodlines of the former Demon King Lucifer.

In the previous match, the bloodline of Li Zevim and another female demon, the real grandson of the devil Lucifer, also participated in the event.

This could be said to be the only big move made by the Lucifer family in hundreds of years. Unfortunately, during the competition, Lucifer met Sirzechs and was easily defeated by him.

To some extent, this can be regarded as a complete change of ownership of the name Lucifer.

"But the Lucifer family didn't cause any trouble. This is good news."

"The descendants of Beelzebub and Asmodeus have been trying to stop this, because allowing us to inherit the names of the four great demon lords would almost be depriving their respective families of their glory."

"But the arm cannot twist the thigh. Even the other families of the old Demon King's faction can only accept defeat at this time and cannot put up any resistance."

"It's just that they agree on the surface, but we don't know what outrageous things they will do behind the scenes."

"The political relationship between demons is really troublesome. When will these factions stop dividing and all demons can unite together?"

Sirzechs said with a lamenting tone.

“I’m afraid this will depend on you, Sirzechs. Now that you have obtained the name of Lucifer, you can use this name to fulfill your political ambitions.”

"Perhaps after a few hundred years, there will really be no factions among the demons anymore."

Saigo encouraged Sirzechs with a smile.

Sirzechs said gratefully: "...Thank you for your encouragement, father. How is the new life you and mother have conceived now?"

"Your sister is very healthy, but we don't know how long it will take until she is born. I hope you can work hard and provide a better environment for your sister when she is born."

Gremory said this softly at this time, her tone filled with deep maternal love.

Sirzechs nodded vigorously and promised, “…I will work hard for this, Mother!”

"Okay, let's not talk about these serious things, let's eat first."

"That's right, I'm already so hungry."

Following Saigo's greeting and Ophis's complaints, the Gremory family was once again filled with laughter.

……

Agreas, this is a floating city and a research center for demons.

At this time, Ajeka Beelzebub was in a research institute in Agreas, touching the chess piece in his hand.

This was the product of his research on the stone tablet left by the demon lord Zarathustra.

He named it - Devil's Chess Piece! .

Chapter 62: The Birth of Rias Gremory

Suddenly, footsteps were heard outside the door.

Ajeka, who was stroking the devil chess piece in his hand, had a slightly changed expression.

He quickly clenched the chess piece in his hand and hid it behind him, then calmly tidied his appearance before looking towards the door.

As the door of this research institute that belonged only to Ajieka opened, Ajieka breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the people coming in, and his tense body relaxed again.

That long red hair was so familiar to Ajeka. He was his friend who was more than a friend and almost a lover, or rather, a relative - Sirzechs Lucifer Gremory.

“It’s you, Sirzechs. You really gave me a shock.”

Ajeka patted his chest with his hands, showing a frightened expression.

Seeing this, Sirzechs, who had a steady face, smiled helplessly and said, "...You are now Ajeka Beelzebub, one of the four great devil lords."

"What do you have to be afraid of?"

Ajeka shook his head and said, "...Even if I am one of the four great demon kings, even if I have surpassed the demon kings and reached a higher level during this long period of time."

“But to be honest, for us, the descendants of the Demon Lord, I am still extremely wary of those first-generation family heads.”

997 "Their feelings for the Demon Lord are truly amazing. Even after so many years, those first generation demons still have deep feelings for the Demon Lord."

"What I'm researching right now is related to the legendary Demon Lord. Although those first-generation demons were forced by us to agree to the research, who knows if they will secretly trip us up."

After receiving the title of the Four Great Demon Lords, Sirzechs and Ajeka did not have any real power at first.

But they were geniuses among the younger generation, and after their own efforts and means, they finally seized their own power from the parliament.

Although these powers are still constrained by the members of parliament, it is no longer like in the past where the Demon King only has the title but no real power.

However, after this long period of time, they are no longer considered a new generation of demons.

No one can stay young forever, but there will always be someone young. Now a new generation of demons is born and become the young people of this group of demons.

However, compared to the generation of Sirzechs and Ajeka, the talent and ability of this generation of young demons have declined significantly.

"For the first generation of demons, the Lord of Demons Zarathustra is their father, so they naturally have awe in him."

"Even now, after all these years, it is impossible for their feelings towards their father to change."

"Just like me, even if one day my mother and father are gone, even if thousands of years have passed, my feelings towards them will not change at all."

At the end, Lucifer, the devil who always appeared to be steady in front of outsiders, spoke with a moving tone and sincere emotions.

Ajeka sighed upon hearing this: "...You are right, I almost forgot that the Demon Lord is the father of the first generation of demons."

"If that's the relationship, then I can understand their feelings towards the legendary devil."
