_______________

The room grows silent with suspense so thick it can be easily cut with a pair of scissors.

Even though only two beings are present within this place on a physical level, the other is present on a spiritual level.

After all, Lilith's suggestion was unexpected, so much so, not even Asmodeus was prepared for it, "Retake the throne" and "Revive the Answer", it was very concerning request indeed, if not the most difficult thing Lilith has requested of him so far.

He honestly did not know, how to respond to her in this specific situation, not in the slightest.

Lilith of course saw the hesitation and concern present in Asmodeus's facial expression, she knew Asmodeus was a straightforward man, he was the type that was not afraid to say Yes, or No when needed. But she also know, that he was not as hard to approach as many might think he is, if given a good reason, with reassurance, to back it up.

For such a reason, the task of getting permission from her master would not be too hard, if approached right.

It was a very simple task, even now she could manipulate events to play in her favor as she wishes, however, she wanted to be honest, at least this time around, as it was necessary, although not completely.

She wanted his trust, to Lilith Asmodeus was everything to her, if he died, her life meant nothing, and the failure will always haunt her, these feelings of want were of course due to Eva's curse, but it's been so long, that even she doesn't know anymore, much less care if these feelings for him were real or not, to her it's all she has, the only proof of self-existence and purpose.

All Lilith truly cares about is the seven-letter word, the one, and only person that motivates her to do what she does.

Because for as long as she can remember, she has always lived by the rules of following and serving the Demon Kings.

Serve the Demon King.

Worship the very dirt he or she walks upon.

Offer everything that represents you to him.

Before him you are nothing.

Always remember, that you will never be contented with your existence alone, as the Demon King is your only meaning to even live your life, because if you die; you will just move on to the next one, become sad about it, make the pain teach and fill you with love and regret, and when it ends, the heartbreak becomes even worst every Redo, and the process begins all over again, and again in a never-ending spiral.

This has been her hell for as long as she can remember, when will it end no one knows, well that was till now.

She was tired of it, thankfully though, to make this hell stop, the solution to the problem was simple, all she needs to do is serve him, and improve him, so far her plan to end her suffering was almost complete.

You see Lilith's plans to improve Asmodeus were insane, her goal was to make Asmodeus her perfect chosen one, and her one true consort eternal, if he lives, then she never has to reincarnate ever again, although not a cure for the absolute curse, place on her, but a counter no less.

She would accomplish her goals, no matter what, via her constant manipulation, alteration, and also modifications, of events.

Asmodeus doesn't need to understand love, to her; the word love is as trivial as any other word, and why would it even matter, to begin with, she is also a part of his soul now, and the mere fact that their bond transcends the word is evidence enough of the hierarchy.

But for her plans to work, she needs to focus on one thing, and that was to immortalize Asmodeus as much as she can, without him even realizing it, by acquiring different types of immortality.

So far in her quest, she has assisted him in gaining three types of immortality, which are.

Immortality via Super regeneration: To heal all wounds once damaged, keeping the body at the peak health

Immortality Via Eternal youth: Asmodeus possess Vitality on the Level of the Gods Never aging past twenty-five, or dying of old age.

Immortality via Adaptive Immortality: To adapt to any form of physical and spiritual death

These were Asmodeus's three safeguards to immortality.

But Lilith also had several extra precautions, to ensure that Asmodeus will not die, and it would even be better if she can save his consciousness, by converting his soul into data in the Answer H.I.V.E mind.

That way if the body is gone, a new one can be made, and the soul that exists can be transferred over.

This was her plan, this was her saving herself, and this was Lilith's twisted and obsessed love for Asmodeus, she even went as far as to beg Asmodeus to keep Lilu as her child, when in reality, Lilu is just a safeguard, if Asmodeus were to die Lilu would be the next vessel.

If his soul was on the verge of annihilation, it will return to her realm, for repair, this was something she was unable to do before under the leadership of her previous lords because, in all her reincarnation, she didn't have access to this much power, now as her new race as a system, it grants her a level of freedom and power she never thought possible.

Then and again All Demon Kings are born with a special power, that will assist them, in acquiring more skills as they go along, however, Asmodeus as the firstborn was the only one to receive a named skill, which is me, Lilith.

A name skill is a skill capable of disobeying the laws of the universe, even surpassing logic and reason, only a small set of Demon Kings was lucky enough to have a named skill, these Demon Kings are people like Eva, Lucifer, Morgan, and so on.

Skills are ranked as such.

Normal skills: Skill capable of controlling elements and their behavior to some extent

Greater skills: Skill capable of deciphering and altering conditions or rules of natural fundamental aspects and phenomena power that normally follows existing rules, or has set limitations, such as range, or activation.

Unique skills: Skills that are capable of manipulating fundamental concepts.

Legendary: Skills that control universal laws.

Divine: Skill that is impossible by common sense, and comes off as miraculous

Name Skills: A skill that defies logic or reason

It is for this very reason that her reincarnation into a skill was so special, as her true identity, was not the Demon King System, instead, she goes by the Named Skill: Lilith, and as a skill, she can do as follows.

. Skill Adjustment

. Level inducement

. Status Ciphering

. Instantaneous Calculation

. Administration

. Omni potential

. Data manipulation

. Acquisition of information/ Via the connection to the eyes of truth

. Divinity pondering

. Dream Manipulation

. Magic Manipulation

. Magic overwrite

. Independence

. Primordial knowledge

. Supreme Understanding

. Spread Domain

. Prep time

. Skill gifting

. Skill removal

. Skill sealing

. Enlightenment inducement

. Living Anomaly

. Totem of Asmodeus [Unique skill special only to her]

. Contract

. Infinite sub-space.

. Perfect Memory

. Reward distribution

With all these combined features at her disposal under her living skill physiology, she was capable of manipulating events around Asmodeus, to ensure his safety, his growth, and more

overall even if Ophis, Asmodeus's little sister was being used by her, she would be the one to complete him, Lilith had many plans for Ophis, after all, her so call experiment to resurrect a close loved one, failed because she will it.

You see Ophis has a unique power and set of skills that will allow her to become the greatest battle Alchemist to ever live, that was the potential she sees in her, and as a result, only she will be able to finish creating the artifact that once made Eva almost undefeated.

To her, everyone along with Ophis was nothing more than a chess piece to be used, for a greater purposed,

If Asmodeus was the last boss, then she was the secret boss, no one would touch him, and Asmodeus will develop and blossom into perfection.

And now that an opportunity to recreate the Answer has presented itself to her, then of course she was going to try to convince him in this matter.

So as result, she decides to speak up for herself, as she said.

『I understand your concerns, about this whole situation my liege, you are afraid that I will bite you in the back, and you will have to clean up a mess that could have been avoided』

『But please rest assured, that I won't take your Mercy and consideration for granted, I only want what is best for you, I have no ill intentions towards you, and I never betray you』

Lilith proclaimed with an honest and serious voice, as she voice her plea to Asmodeus with her entire imaginary heart and soul, of course, Asmodeus didn't sense any insincerity in her tone or sense any lies either, but it was still a tough choice to make regardless of how sincere she is.

Although staying silent forever, would not solve the problem, so Asmodeus ask Lilith as such.

"Answer me this question, Lilith, if I agree to make you recreate the Answer, what will you do with such power, answer me honestly, and truthfully."

The question was simple, as the answer needed should be a simple one, as it will determine if she becomes what she formerly was again.

So her reply was as followed.

『I have many uses for it, but I want to use it to better your skill and overall growth and powers』

Lilith answered Asmodeus truthfully, but before he could give a proper response to Lilith, she look at him and said.

『By the way, you still have ten seconds before time stop is deactivated』

Upon hearing this Asmodeus's eyes widen in slight disappointment, however, he couldn't leave Lilith Unanswered either, so he responded to her like so.

"Give me some time to think about it, and I promise to answer you before I switch bodies again."

『No problem my Liege, I await your response』

And with that said, Lilith went quiet, and before the world unpauses Asmodeus went back into the position he was previously in as time resumed once more.

To Be Continued.
