At this very moment.
The Silver-haired Witch, who had been meditating with her eyes closed, suddenly shuddered all over.
She immediately sensed the familiar aura emanating from the massive statue behind her.
That...
That...
She whirled around and, trembling, saw the towering statue of Lucifer, which had once again emitted that familiar aura after a thousand years.
"The Demon Lord!!"
The Silver-haired Witch's eyes trembled, her entire body fluctuating with overwhelming excitement.
Gasp—
Overwhelmed by the intense, familiar presence, she rolled her eyes and collapsed straight to the ground, unconscious.
Across the Abyss Society, all the witches felt this long-lost aura.
They all turned, trembling, toward the deepest part of the hall.
In the next moment.
Every corner of the Abyss Society.
Countless witches dropped their tasks and rushed toward the main hall at an unimaginable speed.
When they saw the faint glow emanating from the statue standing in the center of the hall.
Gasp—
Gasp—
The most devout witches, overwhelmed by the excitement, rolled their eyes and collapsed in rows, like wheat being cut down.
After an unknown amount of time.
They finally awoke.
Overcome with excitement and disbelief, they let out joyful, tearful screams.
"It's the Demon Lord's aura! Has the Demon Lord awakened?"
"A thousand years have passed! It's been far too long!"
The Silver-haired Witch finally staggered to her feet.
Trembling, she raised her head, knelt on one knee, and used her spiritual energy to sense the familiar and powerful aura.
This statue of Lucifer was personally overseen by the Demon Lord himself. It contains a part of the Demon Lord's essence, allowing them to clearly sense the Demon Lord's presence and location.
This was to ensure they could serve him better.
Such statues exist in palaces across the abyss, so they could quickly learn of the Demon Lord's arrival in any realm.
The statue in the main realm lighting up.
This means the Demon Lord is currently on the Violet Continent.
"I sense it! I sense the Demon Lord's location!" The Silver-haired Witch raised her head urgently, trembling.
"In the city of Mithril, the sacred city of the Order Church! The Demon Lord's aura tells me he is currently engaged in battle!"
In an instant.
She turned sharply, her robe billowing, her gaze filled with indescribable excitement and fervor.
Looking at the equally fervent witches below, she waved her hand and clenched her teeth.
"We've waited a full thousand years! Now that the Demon Lord has awakened, quickly! Immediately notify the First, Second, and Third Combat Maid Brigades!!"
"No matter where they are or what they're doing, issue an emergency order: target Mithril City! We must find the Demon Lord!!"
"Yes! Head Maid!"
The witches below all let out excited screams.
In an instant, the entire Abyss Society was mobilized.
This news quickly spread through special channels to their headquarters in the abyss.
The Demon Lord's former clan also received this unbelievable, heartening news at the first opportunity.
The First Legion, Second Legion, and other elite armies composed of Greater Demons, which had been dormant for a full thousand years, also began to move immediately.
"Quick! Quick! The Demon Lord has awakened and is now on the Violet Continent. Bring out all the resources we've collected over a thousand years and prepare to construct the Abyss Gates!!"
"Coordinates: the Order Church headquarters. Open the gates right on their ancestral tombs! Every ten meters, fill it up!!"
"Immediately summon the Hellhound Legion, Hellfire Legion, Black Knight Legion, Bone Dragon Legion. Tell them, it's time to work!!"
In an instant.
The first plane of the abyss, silent for countless years, began to stir.
The earth cracked open, and countless demons crawled out from below. Countless bone dragons filled the skies, enveloping the entire plane.
Other Demon Kings of the abyss also sensed the massive upheaval in the first plane.
Such a large-scale movement was unprecedented even in the abyss.
At the Abyss Society headquarters.
Bang bang bang bang bang bang—
After all the witches had departed, the Silver-haired Witch banged her head against the marble pillar repeatedly.
"Ah— Ah—"
Overwhelmed by excitement, the Silver-haired Witch let out sharp cries.
As the Head Maid of the First Combat Maid Brigade, she was usually dignified and would never behave so unbecomingly.
But today was different!
As a girl who had adored Lucifer since childhood and dreamed of offering her soul and body to him, fainting a few times just felt right in the presence of Lucifer!
...
Meanwhile.
In Mithril City.
The sacred hall of the Order Church glowed with holy light.
Under the Pope's command, the highest level of alert was activated, and countless restrictions that hadn't been activated in a thousand years were once again deployed around the hall.
A large number of knights, spellbreakers, and holy mages were urgently gathered around the hall.
Almost all the Order Church's strongest were here.
Even so.
Seeing the towering demon hundreds of meters high outside Mithril City, they still turned pale and felt a suffocating pressure.
The Pope led all the Order Church's bishops out of the hall.
They gazed far away at the massive demon, their faces grim.
"Your Holiness! What exactly is this demon...?"
The Pope's face was solemn. "It's very similar. I've studied the hierarchy of abyss demons before. Judging by its appearance, this demon is likely..."
"The First Demon Lord of the Abyss!"
At this, all the bishops' expressions changed dramatically, their faces turning ashen.
"What kind of joke is this!! The First Demon Lord of the Abyss?! How could such a demon appear on the Violet Continent!"
"This is impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"A demon lord is... a demigod..."
The immense shock instantly made them feel icy cold in both body and soul.
Demon Lords were all demigods, and the First Demon Lord of the Abyss was undoubtedly one of the most powerful among them.
And such a legendary being...
Was now appearing at the headquarters of the Order Church!
In RPG terms, it was like the final boss of the game descending directly into the newbie village at the start!
"Quick!" The Pope clenched his teeth. "Immediately issue an emergency order, summon all bishops from across the continent to return, and send out distress calls to Winter Spring Valley, the War Association, and the Eight Great Empires. We must have them provide support at once!!"

Explosive Plot Song Gua crossed over into another world, bringing along a whole crew of his doppelgangers—all of them mischief-makers. This was a world where everyone could choose a class. Song Gua became a "Bondweaver," capable of borrowing power, while his doppelgangers took on a wide variety of classes, covering just about everything. The number of doppelgangers grew day by day, each one a talented individual with a charming way of speaking. Under Song Gua's brilliant leadership, they would "greet" each other daily and engage in friendly "sparring," pulling off one major scheme after another on Earth. Sometimes they were bandits—stealing bosses, plundering mines, snatching resources. Sometimes they were saviors—descending like divine warriors to face world bosses threatening to massacre cities. Sometimes they even went undercover, infiltrating various major factions to stir up trouble from within, keeping their enemies constantly on edge. To prevent their doppelganger abilities from being exposed, Song Gua made them wear masks with mahjong tile patterns and don Taoist robes in various colors. "Remember, in front of outsiders, call me 'The Dice.'" "Got it! Boss!" "Not 'Boss'—it's 'The Dice.' Think about the vibe, pay attention to the vibe." "Yes! Boss!" "For crying out loud..." From then on, whenever they appeared, they would have their own theme song playing: ~Hey~ paying respects at the mountain stronghold at night~ whose arm is draped over whose shoulder~ gather your courage and follow along...
