[3rd POV]
With the objects for the ritual all gathered and prepared, Morgan knew that she now had to find a proper location to do the damn thing in. As the ritual was going to be loud, let out a shit ton of very very noticeable energy, and was going to be quite painful for Morgan.
The location she decided on was deep in Zagan territory, in one of the dozens of large forests that she now owned. A forest that was surrounded with dozens of wards that she had created around the place, in order to defend it against any intruders during the ritual itself.
The ritual was a complicated one, and was one that she could not do when anyone was near, which is why she had made sure her entire peerage stayed clear of the forest until she had finished. With the ritual itself taking around a week in total to complete.
During that time she would be completely unconscious, and unable to do anything. So it would be up to her peerage to keep her lands defended until she was awake and ready. Something that she was certain they could do, considering the strongest of them was in the very very very bottom of Super Class, while a lot of the others were in Satan Class.
If not, then she had already alerted the Four Satans that she would be out and doing something very serious during this time. Meaning, she should hopefully be good...she hoped.
At the moment, Morgan was outside of the forest, looking at her peerage who had all gathered to send her off - or at least, most of them had - knowing that the next time she showed up, she would be a proper Super Class being, one that would rival, or maybe even surpass the likes of Sirzechs Gremory himself.
"Are you sure this is safe?" Valiana asked, worried for her master. She really didn't want Morgan to get injured when none of them could even do anything to help her. And she was worried that Morgan would do something stupid.
"Trust me love, I am absolutely certain that this is safe. I am not one to do something foolish. I will not get myself killed over something like this" Morgan responded with a confident gleam in her eyes, knowing for certainty that this was going to work, that this was going to be safe.
"...Alright, just...please don't die, will you?" Valiana asked, as she leaned forward and pecked her master on her lips before stepping back.
"I won't, I swear it on my soul. I WILL come back. In one week, I will return, and when I do, I will be a Super class devil that will surpass even Sirzechs. Hell, I won't even be a devil anymore, I'll be something more...something...superior" Morgan said, looking over her peerage with a proud gleam in her eyes, knowing that they were ready to do this without her, even if it was only a week.
"Now, I'll be off" Morgan said with a smile, as she waved goodbye to her peerage, before walking off and into the forest, ready to do this ritual, and become something more. Something akin to that of a God to the Devils.
_______________________________
Walking through the forest, Morgan stopped in front of the large ritual area. Ancient runes and markings littering the ground and trees in the surroundings. All sorts of wards. and barriers blocking the area so that nobody could get in. Only a higher entity like one of the top five entities could get through.
And she saw no reason as to why they would even bother to get through that barrier. As while she was powerful, she was nothing to them, so why would they need to step in and try to stop her? They'd be able to atomize her from miles away.
Placing each of the ritual objects into their respective locations, Morgan made sure the barriers and wards were prepared, as she smiled.
'Good, it's all prepared and ready' Morgan thought, as she decided to go over her plan one more time before beginning the ritual.
'Once this is over with in a week, I'll finally have the power to properly make some moves. The first and most important of them will be taking out Zekram Bael for good. That man is not trustworthy, and I am certain that he is scheming in the background even now. He's preparing to take me out, or ruin my public image' Morgan thought, before continuing.
'My image isn't going to be something he can ruin, not when I have the backing of so many influential figures in the Underworld and beyond. No, he'll try to kill me. Either through assassins, or some underhanded tactic, he will try. And now that I am here in this place, they won't be able to do anything until I am out, as Zekram sure as hell isn't that strong' Morgan thought, as she breathed out.
'The only other plan would be to cause chaos in my lands. Like working with a rather annoying faction like the Old Satan Faction. Which...that is certainly possible, but none of them are strong enough to fight against my peerage, so we should be fine' Morgan thought, knowing that it would take a super class being to proper fight her peerage, and even that was...growing more and more unlikely.
And since the Four Satans were her allies, it would take a huge force of immensely powerful figures to do jack shit to her and her lands.
'Once I take out Zekram Bael for good, Sairaorg can take over the Bael clan, which will make my entire life far far easier, and will get rid of the annoying political problems that keep propping up, as he is naturally behind all of them' Morgan thought, sighing as she uncorked the top of a bottle, as she began to drink her beer.
'After Zekram will be Hades. He's becoming too big for his breeches, and it's time someone shows him his place. Because there is now way in hell I am going to allow that God to continue looking down upon me and my people. That, and he has omething I want' Morgan thought, knowing that he was in possession of something very very important.
And if she could claim it, it would change everything. Not only for her, but for the entire devil species as a whole. It's just that claiming it would be pretty damn dangerous, and would have to be very carefully done.
'And then after Hades...it'll be time to take care of Rizevim and the Khaos Brigade. And while I can't do shit against Ophis, I sure as hell can give her a better option than killing Great Red, and I can get rid of the nasty little group before Rizevim does something really really stupid, like summoning those ExE Gods' Morgan thought, remembering the entities that he would summon canon.
Entities that could slaughter Great Red like he was a bug. Entities that were Gods of a higher order than even Ophis and Great Red, and were a greater threat thanks to this. Entities that she could NOT allow to come into this universe, and in order to do that, she has to kill Rizevim the second she has the chance to.
After that? It'll be time to grow her own power, and once she is strong enough, she'll take out the last problem, which is Trihexa. But that would have to come way down the line, as Triehxa was way beyond her. Considering that thing is stronger than Great Red and Ophis, both of which could kill the entire Devil Race - including her - within a few minutes if they really wanted.
With her contemplation of the future over with, and her decision made, Morgan got to her feet and let out a sigh, as she walked towards the center of the ritual circle.
Standing there, she closed her eyes, as she began to imbue her energy into the ground below, the ritual circle and objects beginning to glow brighter and brighter, the winds around them beginning to pick up, as the grounds below them shook and quivered underneath the ritual.
And soon, her eyes began to close, one thought on her mind as the ritual began to work.
'...Let's hope this works!'
