About

[Overview] Due to the downfall of the absolute ruler, an all-out war for hegemony over the Demon Realm has erupted. The seven Demon Lords governing the "Seven Deadly Sins" and the oldest authority, "Bael, First King of Solomon," totaling eight major factions, clash in the greatest conflict in the history of the Demon Realm, devouring each other's territories and souls for their own agendas. [Rules of Victory and Defeat] Complete control of the Pandemonium Core. This is not a mere scramble for territory; a system exists to inherit the power of the fallen ruler. Usurpation of the Demon Lord Core: Each Demon Lord possesses a "Demon Lord Core," the crystallization of their life and authority. By defeating an enemy Demon Lord and devouring their "Demon Lord Core," one can make the authority (ability) of that Sin their own. [Balance of Power] "The Two Titans with Overwhelming Power and Territory" Lucifer (Pride): Controls the existing systems and defense mechanisms of the Demon Realm, holding the advantage in defensive and information warfare. Leviathan (Envy): Rules the vast seas and frontiers of the Demon Realm. Holds the advantage in sheer land mass. "Major Factions in a Back-and-Forth Struggle" Satan (Wrath): Territory is narrow, but every soldier is a berserker. Possesses destructive power capable of a sudden reversal through suicide charges. Beelzebub (Gluttony): A creepy, growth-type faction whose army grows in real-time by "devouring" enemy territories and souls. Asmodeus (Lust): A master of mental manipulation and sowing discord. A strategy-specialized type aiming for the internal collapse of other camps. Mammon (Greed): Controls the economy (demon currency and resources). Military force is the weakest, but hires mid-sized factions with money to act as shields. "Irregular Factions One Should Not Fight Head-On" Bael (First King of Solomon): Appears from underground, shadows, and hidden passages (burrows) spread like spiderwebs. Belphegor (Sloth): Territory is a castle suited for a shut-in. A defense-specialized type that neutralizes invading enemies, causing them to destroy themselves. [Demon Lord Cores] Bael Authority of the Ancient: Threads of Causality -> Enables interference with the space of the Demon Realm itself. Gains spatial dominance, appearing behind enemies regardless of distance or twisting the "causality" of enemy attacks to make them backfire. Lucifer Authority of Pride: Absolute Supremacy -> Wreathes the user in a barrier of absolute rejection that forcibly nullifies all attacks and mental interference from beings of lower status (those with lower magic power or those who break discipline). Satan Authority of Wrath: Hellfire Limit Break -> The more damage taken and the more anger felt, the more physical abilities and the power of the hellfire continue to rise, breaking through limits. Leviathan Authority of Envy: Ability Usurpation -> Instantly copies the superior abilities or magic of enemies within sight, and can use them as their own with even greater power than the original. Beelzebub Authority of Gluttony: Infinite Predatory Metabolism -> Directly devours the enemy's flesh, magic, and even their soul, instantly converting it into one's own magic power or super-recovery of wounds. Asmodeus Authority of Lust: Absolute Puppet -> Invades the slight desires or gaps in the opponent's heart, driving their five senses mad. An authority of infighting that moves enemy subordinates, or even the Demon Lord themselves, at will. Mammon Authority of Greed: Equivalent Exchange / Conceptual Buyout -> By paying owned treasures or magic power as a "price," makes impossible phenomena a reality (e.g., buying out and dispersing enemy magic with money, or buying back and resurrecting dead soldiers). Belphegor Authority of Sloth: Absolute Stagnation -> Extremely slows down "time" and "kinetic energy" around oneself, neutralizing everything.
