I Possessed the Villain in the Lily Novel

Chapter 155

155 – Necrosis (6)

Of course, they couldn’t dream the dream they wanted.

Huge hands with palms together in empty space are tied with chains, and flowers, butterflies, and leaves are flying around the hands.

“It’s been a while.”

Actually, it hasn’t been that long. Except for that impressive hand, the scenery was similar to what I saw at the World Tree.

“Yeah… It’s been a while.”

The sage’s voice remained the same. It existed in my dreams only as a sound without a face.

“It doesn’t mean much to me that I haven’t seen you for a long time. How long have you been sleeping?”

“I don’t know because it’s been a long time since I haven’t been strong.”

The sound of a sigh echoed without breath. There was no wind, only sound.

“Haa… Then what if you really go crazy? You are the one who can set the world on fire with just one fainting.”

The sage’s nagging didn’t end there.

“Did you deliberately go on a rampage to defeat the demon of death before? Do you know how dangerous it was? Don’t do it again. Also, you’ve been using demonic powers a lot lately. Don’t use it for anything more than self-protection. . It’s too dangerous power.”

It was absurd from my point of view.

“Tell me what to do and what not to do.”

“What…?”

“If you tell me not to do something without telling you something, I’ll follow you. Right?”

Laughter leaked out.

There is no way you can follow without a reason.

Repression without rational reasons is violence and coercion. Who would follow that kindly? I’m more inconsistent I have a life that I have lived, what is it?

“…Yeah. I didn’t explain too much.”

For some reason, the sage meekly admitted it.

“As I said before, demon power induces your irrationality. It brings out your instincts. Anger, indolence, greed… Demon power is very useful, but it is also harmful. Why, did you not feel that? Demon The more I use my power, the more sleepy I feel.”

“Yes, well… I’m sure there was.”

“That’s proof that that power is eating away at your sanity. The moment you fall asleep and lose your sanity, your blatant desire will sweep the world.”

My blatant desire.

It must have been something deeply related to the [Curse of Impossible Regeneration].

Endlessly flowing blood.

Not a paradise flowing with milk and honey, but a paradise flowing with blood and wailing.

As the blood of all those who are better than me, it makes the temperature of the world similar to the warm body temperature of blood.

A raw, unrefined desire.

“If that comes true, um… Not good.”

I nodded. No matter how much you think about it, you won’t be able to change the world in a good direction.

“Yes, so please adjust the demon’s power a little. Also, not intentionally causing runaway means the same thing. Runaway uses more power than usual.”

The wise man said he was really worried.

“Wouldn’t that be the limit just a while ago? Use your body in moderation. You know that you’re not the only one who becomes more dangerous the more you fall into danger.”

That’s right. However, it was not convincing.

You say you’re a wise man trying to persuade me rationally, but it was a foolish plan.

If I can’t use the devil’s power in the first place, the only thing left for me is an attack using that insignificant regeneration runaway. It would work for monsters of a certain level, but it would definitely not work for elves or demons. If you don’t have wings, you can’t even draw out your reserve magic, so you can’t even use magic.

Should I give up just because I’m crazy? The sage will have to understand my personality now.

“Yes, I understand.”

On the outside, he showed his consent.

“Okay then I’m glad…”

“But, wise man.”

When the sage showed a move to end the story, he hurriedly blocked it. I still have so many questions. Hearing just that much of the truth is not enough.

I am still interested in the many truths that the sage has not told me.

“Do you really want to stop me from becoming the Demon King?”

There was silence.

It was a cold, quiet silence, like a frosty wind blowing in the midnight sun. There was no way to know if it was the embarrassment that hit the mark or the anger at the unexpected remark.

Fortunately, I wasn’t particularly interested in the emotions behind it.

“…On what grounds do you say that?”

What agony was there during the silence? The sage barely opened his mouth.

“Why? Isn’t that enough suspicion?”

“Don’t be foolish. Isn’t everything grounded?

I’m scared because I’m suspicious. Is it just candy coating? Of course I know it’s not like that, but my twisted mind twists and listens to every word. It twists the information received from the outside like a spiral.

“…I met the Master of the Prophet inside the World Tree. He told me why I came to this world.”

I wanted an honest answer, so I did. I also want sincerity from the wise man, so we are in a similar position. It made me very proud to have the eyes of the world’s most highly educated person.

“Gong Myong said, ‘All those who came to this place from their original world were summoned as talents who will change this world, so you too can change the world.'”

The weak suspicion that had been there from the beginning was amplified with this opportunity.

“Then isn’t the purpose of being invited to this world for me to become the Demon King? There would be no reason for the wise man to interfere with that… Why would you do that?”

Actually, this sleep was not just for the purpose of simple rest. Taking information at will from a sage who knows otherwise.

According to her words, she was confined 300 years ago due to the curse of the demon king, and there is a limit to conveying information.

However… Right now, even this statement is questionable.

“Sage, did you really not want me to become the Demon King?”

I asked again.

“Of course.”

The sage answered without hesitation.

“I… Yes. I was definitely silent. But I mean it. I really don’t want you to become a demon king.”

“Everyone talks.”

A sneer was heard in the air.

“It’s a bit painful for me, who can only speak.”

It was such a funny joke that I laughed along with it.

“When I saw you before, you showed me a hologram of the demon lord and a wonderful dream… Can’t you do that?”

“Whoa… Yes, I got it. I can tell you this much.”

After the words of the sage who took a deep sigh.

The empty space, which was only white, was colored.

Colorless and colored, the sky.

In the sky, something like a cloud, like a flock of birds, like a swarm of insects, somehow sinister-looking, wriggled.

Let the shapeless black group take the form of a hand and swing it once.

Hundreds of buildings were crumbled and scattered. The glass on the window shattered and shattered, raining down on the ground. People who were hit by the rain were torn to pieces like glass and died.

It was a disaster.

The one who faced the calamity rushed forward holding a blue sword and a red spear.

“Are you the Demon King and the Hero?”

“Right.”

The fight between the two passed quickly.

In an instant, like the scenery outside from inside the train.

Still, I know that the confrontation between the two was long.

The warrior who ran into the demon king fought for several days and nights.

The hero’s huge blade of light cut the demon king, and the demon king’s dark red hand pierced the hero’s heart.

They both died at the same time.

The winner was mankind, but the result was disastrous.

“I’m sorry, but I lost a close friend to the demon king. I’ve seen countless people die, and I’ve seen the civilization built up so far burn.”

After the Demon King retreated, light returned to the sky. The collapsed city came into view under the bright blue sky.

Now I can see what that burnt civilization is.

Concrete and steel buildings have sunk, and iron four-wheel drive vehicles have been damaged and left unattended. The cleared roadside trees turned to ashes. The asphalt road is dented.

Buildings, vehicles, architectural styles and materials not found here.

However, the familiar landscape after the destruction.

Yes, this place was Earth.

The world before I lived.

“…What is it?”

“Why do you think there is no record of the demon king from 300 years ago?

Laughter leaked out. Now, it explains why I was able to use magic.

I could guess why she treated only me specially.

“You b*tches fought on Earth… So the world I lived in was ruined?”

Originally, the Earth of the past took off tremendous technological development and lived a prosperous life without magic.

It was destroyed because of these people who brought the Demon King.

As buildings collapse and civilization collapses, ethics collapse. The world destroyed by magic gained the power of the new age of magic, but it became barbaric.

What is the root cause of the society that led me to live as a slave?

It is said that it was the fault of the girls three hundred years ago.

“I couldn’t help it. I tried to seal it as a temporary measure against the demon lord, but the seal was broken and the effect went to the dimension…”

“…”

“That’s why I didn’t want to say it… I’m sorry. It was our mistake. I didn’t think the demon king’s power would be that powerful…”

“Doesn’t the sage who knows everything didn’t know that?”

“…I got that title later.”

He sighed deeply. Anger rises, but not now. I have a little more to check.

“But wait, isn’t that strange? Gong Myong came here from after the world was destroyed? The time zone doesn’t make sense.”

The teacher of the Prophet who said he saw the Demon King himself.

He came here from around the same time I lived.

But how did you come here three hundred years ago and witness the Demon King?

Come to think of it, Stella is also strange. She died a year ago by my standards, but she came here more than ten years ago.

The time is not right.

“That… Can’t be said here.”

“What?”

“I told you. I have a curse. It’s impossible to tell you everything, even if it’s a dream.”

I’m annoyed. I can’t tell if that’s a convenient lie or if it’s really for me, which makes me even more annoyed. In this situation in which I am involved, there are so many unknown facts that I am angry.

The fact that I was excluded always causes anger. It gave me so much rage.

“So hurry up and come to me. Know the whole truth.”

“Hey sage.”

Now I threw out the honorifics and spat out the words.

“Is this ordeal ‘survive’?”

“Right. So.”

“Then, in order to survive, I have to rule out everything that threatens my life?”

After making that conclusion, I strongly slammed my foot on the ground. Perhaps because it was a dream, the texture of the asphalt was vivid.

“What?”

“The most urgent thing right now is those bastard elves. We can get rid of them first.”

I laughed. I feel like my head is clear when I have something to do.

“Okay. I’ve decided what I’m going to do when I wake up.”
