Lady Marla stood at the gates of the Devil King's palace, watching the ongoing battle from the walls. She had witnessed everything. She had seen how Arthur activated his celestial Domain, trapping her fellow demon lords inside with him. Lady Marla wasn't shaken. She knew before hand this was a losing battle. The Minotaur army, despite their small numbers were insanely strong and powerful. There were just a few casualties on their sides. The Devil King's army however, suffered big losses. Their numbers were growing thin as the minutes goes by. Lady Lyra studied the Valiant Vanguard whom assisted the Minotaur army. She was surprised to see Lance wielding the Sunburst arrows. The Sunburst arrows gave Arthur's army a good advantage with it's long range attacks infused with powerful destruction. Suddenly Lady Lyra felt a familiar sensation surge through her. This feeling. She had it when Lord Morok and Lady Azaria died. Suddenly a portal opened next to her and she turned sharply t

Arthur's mind struggled to comprehend what he was seeing.Lily, the same person he had fought alongside, the one he had cared for deeply, was the Devil King. Her once kind and gentle eyes now held an unsettling gleam, and a sinister smile played on her lips."How... how is this possible?" Arthur whispered, his voice barely audible amid the heavy silence of the throne room. "What's going on here?"It was as if time itself stood still, and the world around him faded away, leaving only him and Lily in that surreal moment.The revelation shook him to the core, and he felt a mix of emotions, confusion, disbelief, and a tinge of betrayal.Lily's eyes locked with Arthur's. "You have come a long way, Arthur. I'm impressed you made it this far."Arthur was still confused. "I must be dreaming. You can't be Lily. I left Lily behind with the Valiant Vanguard's to heal them in battle. You're probably using her face to fool me."Lily laughed. "Don't be fooled, Arthur. I am Lily. I have always been

The Devil King's domain was still in the same state Arthur left it. The battlefield in the Devil King's domain was eerily silent. All that remained was a heavy stillness that hung in the air like a thick fog. The Minotaur army stood frozen, their massive axes suspended in the air. The Devil King's forces were also frozen, their swords and spears suspended in the air.Arthur soared gracefully above the motionless battlefield, his keen eyes watchful. If he wanted to, he could unfreeze time and release them from this temporal stasis, but he hesitated.The Devil King comes first. He must put an end to Lily's reign. He flew towards the imposing palace with renewed vigor. As he approached the entrance, he spotted Lady Lyra, standing guard. Like the others, she was frozen in time but her consciousness remained aware of the world around her, even in this temporal stasis.Arthur descended gracefully, his feet touching the ground softly as he came to stand before Lady Lyra. He could se

Arthur found himself standing before Celestia again.He looked around at the vast space studded with stars and her glorious form seated on her throne. She kept staring at him, her face expressionless, her mouth shut. They stared at each other for a long time before Arthur became fed up and said, "Well, say something. You've been awfully quiet."Celestia released a deep breath and replied, "I should be asking you the same thing. Why are you here?"Arthur raised an eyebrow, "What are you talking about? Didn't you summon me?""No, I did not. You summoned yourself here," she said firmly.Surprised, Arthur asked, "Does that mean I'm not dead?"Celestia nodded, "No, you're very much alive. Your consciousness is here, but your form is still in battle with The Devil King."Frowning, Arthur balled his hands into fists, saying, "You knew all this while Lily was the Devil King. You knew all along and still refused to tell me.""Yes, I knew, but it would be unfair to tell you. There are rules I

As the new god of Astralia, Arthur was faced with a great deal of responsibilities. He realized Celestia had been right about the tremendous amount of work he must face as the sole god of Astralia. Still despite all that, Arthur strived to ensure his reign brings about positive change throughout the kingdom.First and foremost, Arthur focused on unifying the diverse regions of Astralia.Astralia had several regions and kingdoms which were scattered throughout. By placing the Valiant Vanguard's to rule each of these regions, he was able to foster harmony and cooperation among its inhabitants. He established regular meetings with other leaders from different territories to address issues, resolve conflicts, and ensure equal representation for all.Then there was the people's welfare. Arthur knew that introducing modern technologies from Earth could greatly improve the lives of the people in Astralia. He began a comprehensive campaign to bring advancements in various areas, includ
