Many had objections, but after Hell Monarch personally branded Bilad as the new interim Hell King of Nex Morbus (sixth level of Hell) for the next millions of years, everyone had to accept him.
Truth be told, many are happy.
The demigods who wished to beco Hell Kings were all happy.
To them, 5.7 million years is just a sleep away. It will soon reach, and when that day cos, they will all challenge the Hell Throne regardless of who is sitting on it.
Becoming a Hell King has many benefits, so everyone wants it.
However, due to the 5.7 million-year challenge ban, despite being the weakest Hell level so far, no one can challenge it.
Kent even teased them, causing many to put it at the back of their minds to pay the brat back a thousandfold.
"I know most of you want to beco Hell Kings and Queens. However, since that place is occupied now, I wouldn’t mind opening slots for you to beco the next City Lords... I an, a few demigods as City Lords isn’t too bad, is it?"
They want him dead, and in 5.7 million years’ ti, they will have their revenge.
Kent just scoffs and promises them he will be sure to prepare.
After that, Bilad said goodbye to Nyx, who was happy for him. They will have a chance to et and talk later, but for now, he has a job to do, and so he must focus on that.
Kent took Nyx to the first city he defeated by disguising them both to appear like natives of the city of chains.
"So you are going back down there for how long?" Nyx asked, already aware that Kent wished to return to the core layer of the Damned Hell Sea to train.
His soul fla, fla resistance, and comprehension are still there, alongside 65,000 more fla veins to form. So he will be gone for a while.
"About 295 years, give or take."
"Okay. Then I will wait for you here... I would have gone with you, but I use the Ice elent, and being there for long will affect badly."
"I understand. Just stay here... I will be back soon."
Kent left, and soon, he was back to the core layer, at the bottom of the Damned Hell Sea, where he resud his training inside the pool of the Supre Grade Primordial Hell Fla.
He had already spent four years in Hell, but because he couldn’t leave until the 300 years were over, he decided to train instead of roaming the various cities in Hell.

[294 years later - Bottom of the Damned Hell Sea]
⟪You have attained the first stage of Fla Immunity; Ember Immunity⟫
⟪You have attained the first stage of Fla Harmony; Resonant Harmony⟫
⟪Your Chaos Soul Fla has upgraded: Tier 14 ↠ Tier 15⟫
Kent opened his eyes, the feeling of power and comprehension oozing from his body. He had been seated in the sa place for 294 good years.
Naturally, that was tiring. However, Kent is a cultivator and had already been in an extended seclusion before, so this was no new thing to him.
However, this ti, despite spending close to three centuries in seclusion, he will walk out with many benefits.
He had already reached Fla Immunity and Fla Harmony.
The only thing left for him to do now is to comprehend the Fla Laws, which will take him through the five stages of immunity and harmony before attaining True Fla Immunity and True Fla Harmony.
For that, he needs to fight beings who have begun to comprehend the Laws of Fla. Of course, for that to happen, he must go to the Immortal Worlds. That is the only place he can comprehend the fla laws.
This ans for a while, he will be stuck at the first stage.
"But I have ford 65,000 more fla veins, making 135,000 fla veins, and my Soul fla is now Tier 15." Kent smiled, rembering sothing Agni said.
"Agni said I needed pills to help form fla veins and cores. He also said I need to form seven fla cores and at least 108,000 fla veins before I can learn the Finger of Destruction technique.
Aside from that, he also said I need to have weak fla resistance before I can learn it. However, despite reaching Fla Harmony, I can feel the ’Finger of Destruction’ calling to ."
Kent chuckled... "I have only ford one fla core, but I know it is already big enough to fuel the Finger of Destruction, aning I can learn it now."
He examined his body and could tell he could indeed learn the technique.
He closed his eyes again and entered the Sword Mind to learn. When he appeared, he saw the runes for the Claw Art, but he didn’t attempt it, for he knew he was still too weak for that technique.
He moved straight to the runes for the Finger of Destruction and began learning.

[9 months later]
A long, colossal, and flaming finger descended, shaking the entire space. As it moved, stars, moons, and planets started exploding. The chunks from the explosion lted in one hellish blaze.
"Damn."
Kent muttered, staring at the finger move with a smile on his face. It had been daunting, but he managed to learn a small part of the first form of the Finger of Destruction.
What he was staring at was the true first form. But, compared to his understanding, he was still years behind.
However, when Kent raised his hand and pointed his finger forward, a 30-ter-long flaming finger appeared. It was a weaker version of the true Finger of Destruction; however, it was strong enough to kill those below the Immortal stage.
"I now understand why Agni said one needs seven fla cores. Just using it once has taken 20% of my fla essence. This ans I can use it only five tis."
Kent sighed, and then he opened his eyes to the outside.
"Agni is wrong about one thing, though. The amount of fla veins that can be ford is not 500,000 but rather 1.5 million.
This ans I have a long way to go. Hopefully, one day, I can form that many fla veins and finally stand at a stage not even the God of Speed can rival ."
Kent stood up and walked back outside, where Avotha and Gaap were waiting for him.
"Let’s go."
They started flying back to the outside world. Kent had only a few weeks left, so he planned to see what had beco of his kingdom before he left.
Three hours later, they were back in the City of Chains, where Nyx was waiting for him.
She would return to the Underworld to pursue her own dreams. But before leaving, Kent wanted to make sure she wouldn’t be sending herself to an early grave.
Kent was thrilled to see that new City Lords had been chosen, and the cities were now thriving more than ever.
He also discovered that a new rule had been made by the Hell King, allowing anyone to challenge the City Lords every 100,000 years.
This way, instead of the City Lords thinking they were undisputed, this challenge would put them straight and help them grow in both experience and strength.
Lastly, the City of Flies was now the City of Bulls. A new race of Hell demons had occupied it.
