Chapter 76 - 76

Are you crazy?"

Constantine's first reaction was that Lord was joking with him!

What kind of place is Hell?

It is the place where all things end, the place only God despises!

The virtuous go to heaven.

The wicked go to hell.

This is the rule set by 'God', and no angel or demon can violate His will!

Any soul that falls into hell cannot be saved in any way.

Even the Archangel 'Gabriel' cannot save a lost and fallen soul from hell!

"I'm not crazy."

Lord's smile remained unchanged, and he said, "You send me to hell, and then I bring Angela back. What do you think of that?"

...I don't think so.

Constantine's mouth twitched, but he ultimately swallowed these words, because he was afraid of being beaten.

"What exactly do you want to do? Don't say it's to save Angela; there's no need to tell me such childish lies." Constantine stared straight at Lord, and then asked in a deep voice.

"I just want to go to hell, that's all." Lord's lips curled up slightly, and he said with a calm smile.

Anyway, regardless of whether Constantine agreed or not, he was determined to make this trip to hell.

At worst, he would convince people with reason, right?

His insistence on going to hell was not simply out of curiosity, but rather he intended to expand his business and see if he could artificially create a 'Hueco Mundo'!

But before expanding the scope of his business, he needed to personally understand hell!

After all, this is the Marvel Universe, and if he acted rashly without first investigating, who knew which big shot he would provoke?

As the saying goes: Know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated!

If you were to talk about the person who knows hell best, I'm afraid that besides that fire skull, it would only be the 'Hellblazer' in front of him!

"Since you insist on going, I won't stop you."

Seeing that Lord insisted on going, Constantine stopped trying to dissuade him, and instead lit a cigarette, put it in his mouth and took a puff, and then slowly exhaled a cloud of white smoke, saying, "But at least, let me know your name, right?"

"Lord Karl."

"Hmm... I've remembered your name."

Constantine took a puff of his cigarette, and then said with a serious expression, "I will send you to hell, but I want to tell you a few things in advance, and I hope you can remember them."

"Please speak." Lord made a gesture of invitation; he was indeed not very clear about the hell after the Marvel and DC universes merged, and it was good to have Constantine here to supplement his related knowledge!

Constantine held up one finger and said, "First, the hell you are familiar with is actually not a complete dimension."

"What do you mean? Hell is not a complete dimension?" Lord frowned slightly, not quite understanding the meaning of these words.

Constantine's eyes flickered, and he smiled meaningfully, saying, "Hell used to be a complete and independent dimension. But now... because of some unknown reason, it has shattered and split into countless [small hells], each ruled by the Hell Lords symbolizing the Seven Deadly Sins, as well as individual demon kings!"

Lord's eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked, "Which Hell Lords are they?"

"Sin of Pride: Lucifer Morningstar!"

"Sin of Envy: Leviathan!"

"Sin of Wrath: Samael!"

"Sin of Sloth: Belphegor!"

"Sin of Greed: Mammon!"

"Sin of Gluttony: Beelzebub!"

"Sin of Lust: Asmodeus!"

Constantine recited them one by one, and then added, "In addition to the Hell Lords symbolizing the Seven Deadly Sins, there are also demons born in hell itself, who also have demon king-level power and can contend with the Seven Great Lords!"

"Among them, for example, the hell demon Mephisto,

is a powerful demon born in hell itself.

It is said that He controls and dominates the souls that fall into hell, and is the demon whose power is closest to Lucifer among all the demon kings, and has the potential to become 'Satan'."

"Wait... doesn't the Bible say that the fallen angel Lucifer is Satan?" Lord asked with a slightly surprised expression.

"...Who told you that?" Constantine said speechlessly, "Which Bible says that Lucifer is Satan?"

"Uh... isn't he?" Lord was a little embarrassed.

In fact, he wasn't very familiar with the Western setting, and the origins of Satan and Lucifer were just based on his previous fixed impressions.

"...Of course not!" Constantine said speechlessly, "Satan is more like a title, rather than symbolizing a specific existence. Whoever is the most powerful in hell can call himself [Satan]."

Then, Constantine continued to talk about the issue of hell.

In the beginning, [Hell] and [Heaven] were independent and complete dimensional spaces!

But later, for some unknown reason, the complete [Hell] suddenly shattered, turning into the current countless small fragments, which together formed the later incomplete dimensional space.

And these spaces are called [small hells]!

Currently, all demons come from small hells, and the reason why the demons and lords who rule these fragmented dimensions fight each other is to seize the authority of other small hells!

Why do these Hell Lords and demons want to seize each other's authority?

Regarding this, Lord had some of his own guesses.

Perhaps, those Hell Lords and demons want to obtain the complete [Hell] dimensional power!

Since [Heaven] gave birth to 'God'!

Then, as a [Hell] of the same level, why hasn't a character similar to 'God' been born to this day?

The fundamental reason is that the real [Hell] has been shattered!

The small hells that remain now, the authority contained in them is too weak to support the birth of an existence of the same level as 'God'!

Thinking about it now...

Lucifer Morningstar led half of the angels to fall into hell, and the deep meaning of this is probably frightening to think about!

Is that so-called 'God' really omniscient and omnipotent?

I'm afraid... not necessarily!

Moreover, 'Hell' has not been unified to this day, and the authority is scattered in the hands of a dozen lords, and there may be a reason why 'God' is interfering!

Of course, the above is just based on unfounded speculation. Lord doesn't know the specific situation now, because he hasn't seen that 'God' yet.

"How interesting indeed..."

The corners of Lord's mouth curled up in a smile, and his expectations for hell grew even stronger.

It seems that he really didn't come here for nothing, and he extracted a lot of information about hell from Constantine's mouth.

But these are ultimately hearsay, and if he wants to truly understand the situation, he must personally go to hell!

"Since we've decided, then we should act without delay, otherwise Angela's soul will be difficult to find." Constantine was the type of person who acted as soon as he spoke, and immediately arranged the preparations before the 'crossing'.

Given that Lord himself possessed considerable spiritual power, Constantine did not choose to use the previous method.

The main reason was because he felt that he couldn't hold Lord down, and there was a high probability that he would be killed in return.

"Put your feet in there."

Constantine brought over a basin of water and placed it under Lord's feet. Before he could ask, he explained, "Going to hell requires a medium, and water is a universal medium. You can think of it as a 'ticket'!"
