"So, this is the power one gains when they become the ruler of the demon world." Enzeru thought out loud while grinning inside as much as he was outside.

After flying for a while and making it past all those little "areas" of Mundus' design that had served to protect the little ant from others, he'd come upon a rocky area filled with demons intent on destroying him after they found out he'd killed Mundus.

"Haha. Such a pathetic thing didn't even deserve to have a name." Enzeru laughed to the silence around him.

There had to have been at least hundreds of them, maybe thousands. He wasn't quite sure.

All it had taken was a few moments though.

He'd charged up his "Penitence Flame"; the attack that caused bluish-white fire to form around a single or both hands that was then hurled at the enemy.

Ironically, the attack that had disintegrated Mundus had done the same to his followers as well.

Ten seconds.

In ten seconds the flames had engulfed the whole demon army and burnt them all into indiscernible ash.

At the time, he'd laughed at just how much stronger the attack had become, but eventually his humor subsided, as did his laughing.

But he never lost his grin.

Smirk, etcetera. Some considered it a smile, some a grin, some a smirk and others simply something that aggravated them.

However, he'd always thought of it as a way to show how happy he was with the way things were going.

There was a time long ago when he would smile very differently, but those times were long gone.

He lived for one thing now; power.

And he'd gotten it when he defeated Mundus. But he wanted more power!

It wasn't enough! There was almost a physical craving for it; sometimes he would actually feel hungry, despite the fact that he no longer required food to survive.

Simply waiting in that room all those years with almost never anyone to fight had almost driven him insane.

Or had succeeded. Once again, it depended on your opinion.

"Now," He spoke while looking around for something to preoccupy himself with.

"Whatever shall I do?" Enzeru asked the silence.

That boy Vergil would surely come after him soon. Perhaps he should just sit and wait for him.

Enzeru hovered in the air for a few moments before coming up with a better idea.

His eyes glowed the same color as his flames and then he shot a fireball into the ground below him.

"Hmph. Should I do his old house or-" His grinned wider as he decided on what to make.

"Rise." He told the ground.

A second later it trembled and cracked, the ground falling into a crater.

The crater was quickly filled by a circular shape which thrust up through the massive hole in the ground.

Soon it was revealed to be a cylinder; as big as the crater itself.

It scraped against the earth around it as it slid higher and higher up into the sky.

The tower, a quick but accurate reproduction of the Temen-ni-gru from the human world, stood thousands of feet high and almost reached up to where Enzeru was.

He started lowering while floating towards the top of the tower and stepped on its edge as he ceased hovering.

Enzeru continued walking until he reached the other side of the tower and looked out at the full white moon.

It had been a very long time indeed since he'd seen the moon in its natural color.

Judging by how far away they were and their limited means of travel it would take them at the very least a day or so, and that was if they knew where he was. He could be patient though.

There was irony again, but this time because he would defeat Vergil, the "demon" brother on a recreation of the Temen-ni-gru which had connected the two worlds together, and all this while in the demon world.

It wasn't as funny as the other thing, but he preferred to have a positive outlook on life.

Enzeru inhaled and then exhaled, waiting eagerly for Vergil to show up.


I know it was extremely short, but considering this is a new character I wanted to introduce him in a quick little chapter. Also, I want to get a feel for his personality before writing him in 2,000 word-long chapters. I promise i'll update again before noon, but I'm not sure how long it will take.
