Satan was the one that created their alliance and also the one that presented them the Usurpers of Destiny, a Multi-Dimensional Level Faction that spanned through thousands of different Universes. They had many goals; however their primary goal was the gathering of the Origin World Fragments and the assimilation of all Universes, most of the time by force.
Even now, they were still mysterious, and these goals were the most surface level things they had guessed. Satan received an invitation from the Outer Gods long ago, and decided to join without hesitation, desiring power above all things.
After all, the Usurpers of Destiny's true plan was to overtake this Universe as well, which most said was a Universe with a ridiculously high quantity of Origin World Fragments. The biggest amount they have ever seen across hundreds of Dimensions.
Some called it an "Apex Universe" and it was not without reason. The immense quantities of Origin World Fragments made the quality and richness of its Cosmic Essence and Primordial Energies tremendously high, making it so even weaker beings could easily overpower beings that should be considered stronger in other, weaker Universes.
However, such a powerful Universe was well guarded, protected by many mighty Constellations, beings that have ascended past the Universal Realm and have gathered either a group of Universes or become Rulers of entire Dimensions.
The opposing Constellations were making it hard for the Usurpers of Destiny to conquer the Apex Universe at full force, and therefore, they started to slowly infiltrate it by first allying with their members, deciding to slowly tear apart its structure and make it collapse on itself.
The chaining of Chaos, one of the three Primordial, was also orchestrated by the Usurpers of Destiny, who recruited a large faction of Overseers to do the deed for them.
And it was through all of these occurrences that Satan allied them and then, they learned through him about the existence of a certain someone, the Usurpers of Destiny Leader's lost sister.
A sister that that betrayed them and was punished severely. They've been looking where her Eternal Soul might have landed, and finally, they found her right in the Apex Universe they were looking to conquer.
Kireina.

For a moment, Satan had panicked, thinking they wanted her back.
But once he heard they wanted her dead so her Reincarnation Cycle could end and she would go back to her former self, he quickly accepted such an easy request.
Well, it wasn't easy at the end, he died!
But now, after earing Belphegor's words, the Archdemons remained in silence. They knew very well of this faction, their new backers. But they were not too sure about them in the first place. It was only Satan the most enthusiastic.
However, all four of them knew very little about them, and as ancient beings, they knew that they had to be cautious at least. They weren't like Satan that only saw things in front of him, they always were thinking several steps ahead.
But Belphegor, seemed oddly close to them, as if he had too much confidence it was better to remain by their side!
"Oi, Belphegor." Leviathan spoke. "You speak with such confidence about them, when we've barely ever spoken to them before."
"Yeah, I know you're a lazy bastard that wouldn't bother with anything, but even then…" Asmodeus said.
"You're acting suspicious." Beelzebub spoke with a serious tone of voice.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64cc9e79c7059f003e4ad4b0", id: "pf-5109-1"})"Hahaha! Well, it's not like I am hiding it." Belphegor laughed. "I've been having some deals with them, so I've become quite close with their representatives, and the many recruits they've gathered from this Universe. One of them includes a certain spider and a demon king from another world. The Outer Gods have strong ties with them as well, everyone is jumping the ship. We better stay close to them, if you all want to live, that is." His lazy eyes suddenly became sharper, as the three other Archdemons noticed something.
A powerful Aura of Chaos surging from Belphegor, something they had never seen before.
It sent shivers down their spines, even to the spines of their real bodies within each of their Layers.
The one they least suspected to be suspicious, ended becoming the most.
"Let's get along with them, okay?" Belphegor asked with a gentle smile, he had never been one to force others to do something after all, so he tried being nice if possible.
"It can't be helped, I suppose…" Leviathan groaned.
"I guess we might as well. Lucifer, Mammon, and Kireina. They're our enemies now." Said Asmodeus.
"How do you plan to recover after we lost our strongest member though?" Beelzebub was bolder than the others, asking the real questions.
"How? It's easy~" Belphegor yawned. "Strengthen your armies and use these…"
He quickly summoned three large black and dark, purple-colored cubes, which emanated ominous, chaotic and dark auras. Each cube had a crimson red eye on top of them and were no bigger than a watermelon.

"No, this is something better than that." Smiled Belphegor. "It'll help you grow stronger, just like I've done! It is called a Chaotic Origin World Fragment Seed, created from extracting the powers of the Primordial Chaos at the end of the cosmos. A power that'll allow you to ascend."
"A seed… Of the Primordial Chaos at the end of the Cosmos?!" Asked Leviathan. "Such a thing, given to us completely for free?!"
"Of course, you'll be pledging your allegiance and loyalty to the Rulers." Said Belphegor, smiling. "But I doubt that's a problem! Right~?"
"Y-Yeah… No problem with that." Belphegor said. "As long as we can use this power to kill Lucifer and Mammon, and then take over hell, we'll finally be truly free."
"I would do anything for freedom!" Leviathan said, grabbing the cube.
"…" Beelzebub remained skeptical but was forced by Belphegor's gaze to take it.
"Good." Belphegor nodded. "Well done~" He yawned.
It was quite clear.
He couldn't care less about Satan's death.
The laziest demon was actually quite a schemer.
