When Ezekiel woke up his mind was racing with the images he had seen.

Incomprehensible things, entities that controlled fundamental forces.

'Why did I get to see that? What does it have to do with me?... Do all devils get to see some insane origin of the multiverse?'

He was about to ask the queen about it when he saw that she was staring at him with her jaw hanging open.

He looked down at himself then at her again and could not figure out why she seemed so awestruck by him but eventually he figured that it was because he had developed some new feature that was apparently attractive to infernal women.

At least that was the assumption he made based on her tail flicking back and forth.

"Yeah I get it, can I see the mirror please?"

He was quickly becoming annoyed by the way she got distracted by his looks, he wished he could keep the reactions of his own world.

In his own world he had been told he was attractive but he never cared since people did not react to it, the only way he knew that it was possibly true was that his uncle had him work the front of the store as a waiter and a greeter often.

In the service industry people benefit from their looks more than they benefit from their skills so he could tell how positively someone looked at him by how well they tipped, since he liked to be professional he always gave the same treatment to every customer so the only factor that changed was how the customer saw him.

That was the extent of how people responded to his looks in real life and he was used to it, he felt strange with this powerful woman looking at him.

Eventually after realizing she wasn't listening he simply got up and went to the mirror himself.

He saw that his two pairs of horns had grown longer and more sleek, his jawline was sharper and his fanged teeth seemed to have become more aggressive which made him wonder if his jaws were stronger.

Checking more of his body he saw that he had grown slightly taller again and even developed more muscle along his figure.

With his sleek body he looked a lot like a runner or a swimmer... more like a swimmer as his torso was well developed from flying.

The more he looked at his new form the more he saw strange details that seemed new but these details were so undeveloped he couldn't figure out what they were.

At the very least he had the claw on each of his wings looking more dangerous than before so he would love to try it out.

With his examination done he checked what his new species could do now.

~~~~~~~~~~

He was astonished by how strong these skills seemed to be and after thinking about how the creatures that seemed connected to the voidbeats moved he knew that he only had more to gain.

Since he had gained such power he wanted to leave to go back to Raylock and complete the dungeon again, but as soon as she saw him leaving the queen stopped him.

"Wait. I wish to train you now that you are at this level, you deserve to know skills and spells that all mages should get the opportunity to learn."

He was certainly enticed by the idea of more mage skills but he wanted to go, he wanted to show his friends his new power.

"I also want to introduce you to my council, they wish to see their future king."

He frowned before sighing.

"Fine... but only so they will keep protecting the city."

When he said this her smile faded and her face dropped.

"Thank you."

He nodded and followed her as she stood up.

"We will meet the council first, the training after can relax you so that you will return to the city without the stress of being pushed to meet me."

She had taken on a sad tone while she led him out, her posture regal and proper.

He felt kind of bad for making her sad but he wanted to stop hearing about all of this nonsense, being forced here by the two demons still felt painful.

As the pair made their way through the city he saw that people would bow to the queen with adoration on their faces before they even saw him.

When they did see him he instantly hated it, they began to whisper amongst themselves and many of the women stared at him with no shame.

The worst part was how often he saw lust on their faces and the simple desire made him so uncomfortable that his skin crawled.

He even went as far as putting up the hood on his cloak so that he was more hidden, when that happened the women simply focused on other areas.

Wrapped his tail around his waist under his robes, held his wings so close to his back that they basically looked like a cape and when they focused on his face he began to use shadow mana to hide it under his hood.

He could feel the chill of the shadow mana but it did not hurt as he was immune to the damage.

Now all the women who saw him from now on would see a hooded figure in strange robes with a came that resembled the wings of a devil.

With this small disguise it was much easier to hide behind the presence of the queen.

This remaines unchanged until they reaches the castle where he had to show his face to the guards so they would remember him.

"I have unique gear, can't they simply remember me by my gear?"

The queen shook her head.

"They need to know who you are but they will be given directions to only speak to you when spoken to."

Her response was simple but her voice was strained, he could feel the hurt in her voice.

"Listen I don't blame you... you have been looking for someone to share your life with for centuries right?"

"...Millennia actually, over two thousand years."

"I'll try to get along with you better, the way everyone stares at me just feels really weird ok?"

She nodded at his explanation and a small but relieved smile came back.

"I do not have a coven, devils live for a long time but shadow mages live much longer. Our magic sustains our lifeforce by using the remaining life force of our targets we consumed."

This actually astonished him.

"Really? That's... that's incredible!"

She nods before continuing.

"If I were to stop fighting I could probably live for over one hundred thousand years because of how many beings have tried to attack me."

He could not even fathom such a thing, a being that lived for that long could have witnessed the start of humanity and most likely witness it's destruction.

She nodded and smiled at him.

"I have even met Lord Noctus, you would adore him as he is a god that chose to pursue magic. It is why many believe that those with shadow affinity have always become mages."

As they entered the castle he saw a large number of servants waiting for the queen with heads bowed.

He also saw multiple statues of regal women lining the entrance.

"These are the previous Infernal Lords but most simply call them devil queens as the only infernal lords in history have been female devils."

He approached the statues one at a time to observe them and each one had very excellent details as if the statues were actually alive.

"Why do they look so realistic? How do they find such a skilled sculptor each time?"

She laughs a bit and leads him to the end where he saw her own statue.

"These are made from a unique kind of stone that responds to mana, it is something made through alchemy so it is incredibly rare and even more expensive. I believe a statue made from solid diamond would be cheaper."

He inhaled sharply at that idea.

"Why would anyone pay so much on something to stroke their ego?"

The servants began to visible shake but looked up with astonishment as the queen laughed loudly.

"Maybe for the humans and the elves darling, for the infernal people we are able to pay for such things without a problem and we like to remember our great leaders.

He took one more look at the statues and how each one had a smile of pure joy before he followed her further into the castle.
