Ow.
We have to go down this cliff?
What a pain in the butt.
This is what ends up happening to the dead, huh?
Lots of fun.
This is the Second Circle of Hell.
The Hell of Violent Storms, was it?
Seven Mortal Sins
The Second Circle of Hell
I wouldn't have expected you to come to me.
Where are the other Sins?
They returned to their own Hells,
so that they can welcome Lucifer-chan.
I see.
So the Seven Mortal Sins are going to side with a fallen angel, huh?
I was hoping you'd tell me about a few things.
Like Heaven, for example.
I don't know what you're talking about.
Playing dumb, are we?
And why would you think that?
I'm getting the scent of lying from your pheromones.
What are you doing?
You're going to tell me why you betrayed Hell.
I'm going to make you suffer lots and lots.
That'll make you want to talk.
You're going to show me everything you have.
So you're going against me,
the leader of the Seven Mortal Sins?
Leader?
Now that I think about it, you've been trying to trick us all since way back then.
You wanna be the leader?
Yes.
I'm going to get enough power to rival Heaven.
You must be bored.
The current state of the Sins leaves us without a leader,
and everyone does as they please.
We won't be able to beat Heaven like this.
That's why I'm going around trying to convince everyone to change.
So you're trying to fight Heaven?
Sounds interesting.
You're trying to help develop Hell, huh?
Well, if you give me meat...
No one else wants to do something that's such a pain.
Go for it.
You don't need my permission.
Raise your head, Belial-sama.
So what do you think, Asmodeus-sama of Lust?
Please let me be the leader.
Sounds good, I guess.
It'd be nice to get a taste of some angels.
I'm getting all wet just thinking about it.
Thank you very much.
That brings back memories.
Then you should understand if you remember all of that.
I command, as leader of the Seven Sins,
that Asmodeus of Lust be punished for high treason!
What's going on?
You all chose me.
And as long as that is the case, you cannot defy me.
You'll regenerate just a bit more quickly than the winds can slash you.
Pain is pleasure, right?
Stop it...
Perverts love that stuff.
That's so good...
I've never... I've never felt like this before!
This is some super-strong wind.
Asmodeus!
Why are you...
L-Lucifer...
She got me.
She made me cum so many times.
I'll save you now!
Stop it!
I'm the Demon Lord of Lust.
All pleasure is mine.
That's why I can't lose
to anyone but you, who I've accepted.
Anyway...
You need to hurry.
The rest of the Sins are in danger.
Belial is...
Hurry.
Hurry now!
The Third Circle of Hell
That's disgusting.
I mean, come on...
You're annoying.
What now?
Bub!
You stupid dead...
Don't, Lucifer.
Bub?
This is my atonement.
How did you get seduced by Lucifer?
She gave me fun.
Fun?
You mean eating, right?
Very well, I'll give you food.
Eat up, and be loyal to me.
No, I don't need your meat.
I see...
Now eat.
You're scarfing it down.
None of the Sins can defy Belial,
but I won't accept meat from anyone but you, Lucifer.
That's why I...
You're a good girl, Bub.
Bub!
This is what I've chosen, so...
In order to end your eternal Hell, the leader will have to change, then.
Ow...
It'll be time to eat
the porridge you love so much soon.
The Fourth Circle of Hell
So you've shown your true colors at last.
Oh, are you regretting choosing me as your leader?
Of course not.
Investment comes with risk.
I'd go crazy if I got upset after every single time I got fooled.
That's very greedy of you.
And you chose that fallen angel for your next investment opportunity?
Yes.
Lucifer-san's quite the woman,
enough for me to sink every penny I have into her.
That's unfortunate.
You're going broke.
This is really unfortunate, Greed.
You made the wrong choice.
I'm not so sure about that.
Why would you betray Hell?
You're the daughter of the famous Byrnedale family, right?
I'd like to ask you something.
Anything.
You called yourself Belial, did you not?
Why would you inherit the Byrnedale family?
You want to know?
Yes, I do.
A famous family from Hell known even in Heaven, the Byrnedale family...
However, that was in the distant past.
It's fallen, a figment of its former glory,
and no different from any peasant family.
You're insane for trying to inherit that.
Are you just bored?
Just trying to have a little fun?
If you're just doing this on a whim or to make yourself look better,
I will not be able to let you get away with this.
Would the answer, "I like this dilapidated castle," be acceptable to you?
It's lost everything, but it cannot forget its former majesty.
It's maintaining its vanity.
It knows it can't return to the past.
This is the best place for me right now.
Who are you?
You're not of Hell.
Could you be...
I am the Demon Lord of Vanity.
Vanity...
I promise you that I will become the leader of the Seven Mortal Sins,
and make the name Byrnedale known throughout Hell, no, Heaven.
A lie like that...
I'll reclaim our former glory.
Follow me, Gnosis,
until the day this lie becomes truth.
Just the Byrnedale family name was enough for you all to trust me.
If some Demon Lord of unknown lineage
said they wanted to become leader of the Sins,
no one would pay them any heed, I imagine.
You got me.
But...
Hm?
That just means I need to make up for it with my next investment.
Hmm...
In that case, let's make a bet.
That's what I'm betting.
I'll show you that you'll lose it all if you put your money on Lucifer.
You don't understand, do you?
Money always gathers where there's trust.
You can't leave your money with someone you don't trust.
That goes for money and the future.
You're saying you can trust her more than me?
That's what that would mean, yes.
Your wager will be your uterus.
Have lots of fun, Greed.
The Fifth Circle Of Hell
What are you doing?
That Levi...
Making me drag this thing around.
The First Circle of Hell
Go down already!
I want to go be with Onee-sama!
Belial-sama's shield is what I'll be, since she was kind and accepted me.
No matter how busy Onee-sama is, she eats my food and tells me it's good.
She is just using you! It's pathetic that you can't see that it's true!
It's sad Lucifer's not into your scene...
She likes a human, you know what I'm sayin'?
Shut up!
Th-This is gross.
Serves you right!
I got you back.
Now you're getting it!
Take that!
Let go of me!
The Sixth Circle of Hell
I can't take this anymore!
I hate having trouble breathing!
I don't want this anymore...
I'm sorry.
It's so hot!
Please trade with me!
No thanks.
Besides, you could use a little exercise.
Do your best.
Hey, wait!
Make it stop!
The Seventh Circle of Hell
What becomes of the violent, huh?
I don't have time to waste on you!
The Eighth Circle is just below.
I can't get down there!
Perfect.
Now we're going down.
The Eighth Circle of Hell
Lord Belial,
did you know that Heaven was going to attack Hell?
Yes, of course.
How dare you say that so calmly!
Does that mean you have connections in Heaven?
Maybe, maybe not.
So Lord Lucifer was right, then!
How dare you betray us!
You said you were going to attack Heaven with the rest of us when the day came,
but that was lie, I take it!
No.
Don't fib!
That was what I really thought.
I believed there was no other choice.
Choice?
What are you saying?
The situation has changed.
The only thing that's left is to wait for the time to come.
Wrath, accept your penance for defying me.
The dissolved dead cover everything here.
You're the dead scum from the other day!
You've fallen this far, huh?
That's right.
All the dead here, even in their degeneracy, thirst for a woman's body.
You look like you're enjoying yourself.
Belial!
You were quite late.
There's no one left here to take your side.
So quick to run away...
Lord Lucifer...
Be careful.
Her power is already greater than all the Sins'.
I know.
Whale, do it!
You can't use servants!
No fair!
Whale slipped and fell over!
Guess I just won.
No, I can't stop!
Do something!
I'm completely out of magic. Not happening, maybe...
I've had enough of your songs! Just help out!
Oh, yeah!
Wake up.
You're going to help me out,
in order to bring a new power to my Dáinsleif.
Stop it...
I knew it. Angel blood.
That sly fallen angel...
She hid angel's blood within you.
What do you mean?
So Lucifer could return to Heaven once more.
I shall give you an angel's life.
Had you realized you were being used yet?
But Lucifer's plan ends here.
The Ninth Circle of Hell
The Ninth Circle, Cocytus.
The giants sealed in this eternally frozen ice Hell are from the ancient age of myth.
Those that rebelled against God and were defeated.
Damn you, Belial.
So this is the final barrier, huh?
You thought these guys could hold me back?!
Yeah, not happening.
Damn it. They're pretty tough.
Shut up.
I'm busy right now.
Onee-sama!
Levi and Astaroth...
Save me!
Get out of that on your own!
So you're trying to get me to use the last bit of my magic here, huh?
You guys once lost to God,
and I'm going... to beat God!
I made it.
Maria...
