“ | I thought about what it was mankind wanted and I reached a certain conclusion: the only ways for mankind to feel happiness outside of mere survival and physical pleasure are to be ruled by something greater than themselves and to control something lower than themselves. | „ |
“ | The gods are dead. But that is not a problem. Cast aside your magic. I will use the L’Isle-Adams to serve all of you. And in so doing, I shall rule over an empire of eternal happiness. I am the new god. | „ |
Background
Zero is an antagonist of Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou. Zero was the first L'Isle Adam who serves as their supporting pillar and was created to protect the world, which led him to decide the best way to do it was to destroy mankind, becoming the first of the series of Demon Kings. Afterwards, with the creation of The Computer Gods who were based on him to take his place, the first Demon King war happened, which led to Zero's defeat, whose power was sealed inside the Holy Grail and sent to the virtual alternate dimension turned into the sword Evil Slayer. However, he was awakened 100 years later by 2V, which allowed him to seal the gods and take over the world as the new god.
