Chapter 22 - [ Chapter 22 ● The Doomborn Devourers ]

The whole of the Demon Realm has erupted in an even more of a bigger chaos and upheaval compared to before! The disorder spreading to even other realms!

Because of the primal presence that had trembled through the whole realm not that long ago! And the clear intent that came with it!

Every individual from every particular species on the realm at the time perfectly understood what the Primal One wanted!

While the stronger individuals- who had a strong Sense of Self or Will regardless of there Ascension Phase- did exactly that!

However demons were demons! The weaker once always had difficulty on controlling there emotions! Desires or there unending impulses towards utter destruction!

It didn't take them much for them succumb to there negative thoughts!! ...

Meaning the stronger demons had evidently come under control because of the fear and reverence they had towards the Primal One!

And there endearment towards there Lives!! ...

Whereas the weaker demons had become even more barbaric and savage! For one these were the demons who did not care about there Lives!

Had weak Wills or fragile Sense of Selves!! ...

Nonetheless the main problem was that these Demons!! —

Both strong and weak strength wise! And despite the reason behind there rebellious actions being there strong intents guided by there negative emotions!

Fully understood that the Primal One obviously wouldn't be so free- That he would kill them personally!! ...

Similar to- If some ants were slaughtering one another outside some mansion! Then sure- the Master of the house would certainly be entertained!

Still he wouldn't go out of his way to kill them correct!! ...

Anyways even if the Primal One did- Decided to kill them! There was nothing they could do! Besides it would only take him a thought!

Therefore these demons really didn't fear the Primal One! Didn't care about his intent! And were only focused on realizing there desires!

During which if they were to meet there end- Then so be it! Not like they were afraid of death!

Not to mention with the stronger demons out of the picture! Being busy quelling the disorder and chaos in there own governed Lands!

There was no leash controlling these weaker ones!! ...

==========

The center of the Northern Lands of Ravenous Darkness!! ...

The Doomspire City!— A dark city that spanned for millions on millions of kilometers!! ...

An ominous place of calamitous darkness! Avaricious greed and ravenous gluttony! But a paradise for the Doomborn Devouring Demons!

Aka!— The Doomborn Devourers!! ...

The major inhabitants of the Doomspire city! From whom the city actually got it's name!! ...

At the center- surrounded by an unwelcoming bottomless lake of lementing shadows! And a chilly dark haze of forbidden whispers corroding the soul!! —

Stood an obsidian mansion- Like a baleful paragon of a foreboding elegance! Awe and a sinister grandeur!! ...

It's presence sharpe! Tranquil yet oppressive! Dominating all simultaneously!! ...

The obsidian transcendence ignited by the swallowed dissonance of moonlight! Giving birth to it's malefic and menacing presence!

That sought to consume! Devastate and destroy every and all!! ...

Inside the mansion! In a Grand Hall of sentinel legacy! Seated upon the Demonic was a Profane Creation- whom even the space itself dared not touch!

As though being afraid of the abyss the Creation exuded! And was!! ...

The crimson chasm of his calm gaze- observing the rows of servants that lined the Thrown Room! And his many subordinates that sat upon there deserved places!

There postures submissive! Both by terrification and admiration!! ...

Henceforth giving form to veneration!! ...

Finally after sometime- the silence was broken! The words rippled- asking to seemingly no one! "How long has it been since His Eminence declaration!?...

Thirsty-five days! A whole 840 hours! Or 50 thousand 400 minutes!!...

Or 2 million and 24 thousand seconds!!...

Yet still to this day- I hear that there are fools within My own Domain! The whole of the Northern Lands of Ravenous Darkness!! —

Who are audacious enough to go against His Eminence words! Let alone the demons of My own Lineage who are outside of the Domain!! ...

Or perhaps even the realm!!... "

"Your Majesty- The Primal One's intent was perfectly clear!!.. " Zynton- one of the subordinates! Answered without any delay!

His tone emotionless! Serious!! ...

He stood up! Eyes matched with his creator!! — Ainz Doomsoul! And on noticing that he had Ainz's undivided attention!

He continued!!...

"The Primal One wanted the chaos and disorder in the realm to come to an end! To decrease the death and destruction in the realm!! ...

To that end- Most of the Primordial Demon Gods and Goddesses have already halted whatever plans they had regarding there enemies!! ...

Both in the realm and outside the realm!! ...

Even most of the True Demon Gods and Goddesses have come under control within just this small time frame of thirsty-five days alone!! ...

And aren't creating any problems despite all there rage! Grudges and grievances! That has taken form within from the years forgotten!! ...

Nonetheless- There are still some fourth phase Demons and many third phase and lower ones who are already too deep within there hatred!! ...

The ones whos minds have already succumbed to there resentments!! ...

These are the individuals who don't care about anything whatsoever! Not about there own lives or the others! Or about the Primal One's demand!! ...

They are the reason behind the current upheaval in the realm! They are committing massacres and causing calamities to be born on mass!!...

Meanwhile we going by the Primal One's wishes also cannot go and outright slaughter these heretics because that would only give birth to even more death and destruction!! ...

Which would again create hate and resentment and this cycle would continue endlessly!! ... "

Ainz focused on his subordinate! His expression vacant! Mind contemplating about many matters that came into his attention after hearing Zynton's words!

Minor issues which he didn't give much regards to previously! Because of them not having any major significance!

The while his mind was busy! His gaze examined his subordinate interestingly!! ...

Zynton aside from being one of the strongest subordinates under him- was also a very old Doomborn Devourer!! ...

Moreover despite the colossal strength gap that existed between them!! ...

Considering one was a first order Primordial Demon God! While the other was a second order Primordial Demon God! The age gap between them wasn't more then a few hundred years!

Not to mention though Zynton always had a serious outlook towards most of the things in his long life! And despite being a Demon had little to no desires of himself to speak off!

Regardless his loyalty towards Ainz was unquestionable!! ...

It was to the level that sometimes Ainz even wondered! If it had actually eclipsed the reverence and trepidation Zynton felt towards the Primal One!

Nevertheless moving towards his figure!! —

Zynton was dressed in something similar to a fusion between an obsidian scaled armor! A dark amethyst coat and a shadowy black robes!

The uniqueness gave form to something- That not only instilled awe at a mere glance but also a soul quaking terror!

If gazed at for a doomy second too long!! ...

The Doomborn Devourer had long dark amethyst-black hair cascading down his back- Like the threads cut from the shadowed thoughts devoured within!

His skin was pale- Almost near white! Eyes- As if a chasm of two orbs of swirling crimson-darkness! Zynton stood tall- At 1.9 meters!

Had a well-defined shredded physique! Two pointed ears! And a perfect face!! ...

His presence- Like a reflection of the endless void was in fact- Empty! Like an illusion! Yet not simultaneously! As it rippled with some thing that was sinistrous! Tempting and vile!

Something similar to an eldritch evil of annihilation!! ...

The Progenitor was confusing- Like a paradox! Like his creator! Despite that he was a Demon that was perfect! Flawless!

Not to mention strong and unhealthy charming!! ... ... ... ... ...
