The man who led what is commonly referred to as devil worshipers politely knelt down and said:
“Meet the Great Grand Duke of Manmajeon.”
The man’s voice was calm, even as he shed tears of joy at being able to see the fruits of his long research in front of his eyes and at the fact that the object of his faith had come to life through it. As long as it was confirmed that all the energy was sucked into the body of the sacrifice, there was no abnormality, so I didn’t even suspect that the ritual had failed. That’s why even while the boy who had fallen on the floor staggered back up, he remained defenseless and waited for an answer.
Before long, the boy who fully stood up looked at me and opened his mouth with a furrowed brow.
[It’s unpleasant to have a man’s body. However... it’s suitable for use as a door. Everyone did well.]
Success. Even got compliments. The man continued, while the other worshipers sobbed silently at the emotion that filled their hearts.
“The unexpected appearance of the hero has changed the plan a little. However, since there are more lives to reap from this, I think it will be a little more helpful than expected.”
[It is indeed so. It’s... an interesting body. Where did you find something like this?]
“It’s just proof that the world doesn’t go according to God’s will.”
[Hmm, is it a coincidence? After all, this place is fun.]
The demon inside the boy’s body burst into a satisfied laugh and enjoyed his still unstable appearance. This event was also of great significance to the devil. It was a feat that would have been unthinkable in the past, so I thought it was okay to enjoy it for a while.
[You are really capable. Even though I passed on the knowledge to you, I was dubious, but not only did I complete the spell, but I did it in the capital of the kingdom.] “I don’t know what to do with the
undeserved praise. All of this is thanks to the teachings of Grand Duke Krumelia.”
A smile hung on the lips of Krumelia, the Great Demon, whom some call knowledge seekers and others addicts. He was definitely a useful human being. As a well-behaved pet, it is worth playing with for a long time.
But now, there were toys to play with before that.
[okay. I am Krumelia, the great demon who seeks knowledge. By the way... who are you hiding there?]
Before the devil worshipers could raise their heads in puzzlement, crumelia’s lightly wielded fingertips extended dark red thorns in an instant, flying up to the wall at the end of the corridor where they were staying and locking themselves in it. The corner of the wall was blown off in pieces at that blow, and stone dust was scattered, but Crumelia only muttered with a disapproving look on her face.
[Are you avoiding this?]
Sheryl, who was not taken aback by the sudden attack and quickly evaded it, turned and tried to run away. There was no way for her to deal with the Prime Evil, whether it was a full or unstable incarnation. She never overconfided in her skills and preparations, so her actions were quick enough to not feel the slightest hesitation.
[Where are you going in such a hurry? It’s okay to accept it as a greeting.]
However, as soon as she took five steps, Cheryl was running toward the devil, not the way she came. Shocked by this, he hurriedly stopped running, and Krumelia smiled deeply.
[This kind of sensation is not normal, so it’s normal to not know where to run, right? he’s a talented boy What’s your name?]
I’ve heard that demons incarnated can warp space. However, that was only a story when there was an altar that served the devil or when the domain of the devil was completed over a long period of time. Cold sweat began to flow down Cheryl’s spine, who did not think that she would exert this much power despite her sudden incarnation.
Crumelia’s fingers moved again while the demon worshipers, who were still kneeling at her and only turning their heads to look at her, amplified the sense of separation.
[I get sad when I don’t hear the answer.]
Because I’m an expert in knowledge.
With the body of a boy, he acted like a woman and didn’t even have time to pay attention to his smiling face, so he ducked low to dodge the black and red whip that flew by and swung his sword at the same time. Then, Krumelia, who had only been wielding her index finger, started waving all five fingers as if she was having fun.
“I didn’t do it.”
“Huh? Then...”
“Zeke! The devil faster than that!”
Fortunately, as soon as Siegfried heard Tennea’s words, he suddenly came to his senses, put her down casually, and charged the devil worshipers without a word.
[Ha-ha-ha... stop it!]
“According to the Grand Duke’s will!”
As the demon worshipers rushed at Krumelia’s command, who was still in a cold sweat, with their eyes twinkling, Siegfried laughed at them and shouted,
“Does the warrior look like a dick, you motherfuckers!”
-Quaaaaaagh!
There was no need to swing the sword or stop the charge. The spirit’s power, manifested in an instant, almost tore the body of the demon worshiper who approached Siegfried first in half.
But the devil worshipers weren’t idiots either. As soon as I saw the first one torn beyond recognition, their bodies began to deform strangely.
“God’s arrogance will pay a price!”
“God says let’s start with their arrogance!”
Rather, it would be a hindrance if she rushed in now, so Cheryl, who was standing there trying to protect her, heard Tennea’s panicked voice in her ears.
“Well, you wouldn’t have said that...”
“...It’s just a provocation.”
“Yeah, that’s right, right? Ha, but you shouldn’t pretend to be a timekeeper... Ah! Are you hurt anywhere?!”
As expected, she was a saint who seemed to be somewhat fierce, but was quite incomprehensible. Still, he was worried about his own safety and not only brought Siegfried in a hurry, but also showed him such an appearance, so it was hard to hate him.
“It’s okay. I think I’ll have to deal with that devil first. I think I’m going to use my body as a sacrifice to make a gate...” [You damn puppet
bastard!! Such trifles!!]
I was startled by the resounding cry and turned my head to see Crumelia, who had barely woken up with tears of blood behind the demon worshipers who were scattering around in full swing, glaring at Siegfried with arrogance.
[I don’t know how you interfered, but it won’t go your way!]
“What the fuck are you talking about... bastard? bitch? what are you?”
Siegfried, who reacted as if he was dumbfounded, but sincerely severed the demon worshiper who had turned into a strange monster, tilted his head and rushed at Crumelia.
Her greatly strengthened body instantly closed the distance, and just as the huge sword was about to pierce Crumelia’s body like a lance, her right hand came out of her abdomen.
[It’s time to eat!]
And dozens of monsters jumped out of Crumelia’s ship, which seemed to have cracked at the same time.
