The Devil Who Grants Wishes

110 – Runaway (7)

The Mage Tower, which turned into a dungeon in the original work, poured out all kinds of monsters.

Monsters with octopus tentacles, floating eyeballs with spines growing like sea urchins, etc., there were only monsters that looked like they would appear in pagan myths.

But the scene unfolding before my eyes is not like that at all.

If you look at the mana accumulation and the pressure that wraps around your skin, it is obviously exactly the same as that of the dungeon.

There are literally only those who radiate holiness and divinity from their entire bodies.

And those guys are definitely the guys in memory.

[How should I design the monsters that will appear in the Kael area?]

[First of all, you shouldn’t play with the monsters that have appeared before. Since it is a completely different space from the underworld, there are no normal monsters.]

[It seems that armor-type monsters and golems can be fixed by remodeling the existing modeling into an angelic style, but uh… other things don’t work, so I’ll have to recreate them all one by one.]

These are the monsters that will appear in the Cael area, which was barely completed just before I possessed Faust’s body.

Using the processed crystal of divine power, they enter the demon realm and defeat Belial, and the warriors who were betrayed by Cerapia and nearly died there head to Cerapia’s world, Kael.

It was an important final area that would keep users locked up for about two years until Serafia was defeated, so the design had to be meticulous, and thanks to that memory, I can now very well know that those are monsters that will appear in Kael.

But why are they here?

“Lucia, you don’t have to say anything. Rest in peace since you know everything.”

“Yes, yes…”

He even tried to kill the lovely Lucia.

It’s good that I rushed in, but if I had been a little later, something really terrible could have happened.

Of course, if you use time reversal, you can make the horrific reality non-existent, but Lucia’s case is a little different.

‘…It doesn’t work again.’

After fighting Cranion, a skeleton demon, in the islands of the Aquileia Empire before, the time reversal gimmick does not activate again, like when Lucia was incapacitated.

I don’t know why.

The time reversal gimmick that used to work just fine always doesn’t work properly if something goes wrong with Lucia.

It’s to the point where you feel a sense of desolation as you can’t move as you wish because your limbs, which used to move freely, have been cut off.

That’s why when Lucia is involved, she can’t act as relaxed as when dealing with other things. You have to act as if you are crossing a river of no return.

“Elias.”

“Mu, mu, mu, what’s going on…”

“thanks.”

“…”

If Elias hadn’t protected Lucia, it could have come to a truly terrible end.

I thanked Elias obediently for that much, but Elias, who was afraid of what I would say, looked at me with a surprised expression.

…No, I’m feeling a little bad.

[Pau, St…]

[Seraphia’s enemy…]

[Die… die… die]

Even at that moment, Kael’s monsters continue to pour in from all sides.

No, the expression “creeping in” might not be right.

It was because the holy power was literally gathered in the air, and monsters were being created from there moment by moment.

All kinds of monsters are born, starting with just white armor-shaped monsters, golem-shaped monsters, and golden winged demons.

It was so strong that the current warriors’ party struggled very hard even from the outside. Maybe if the party of warriors fights with them, won’t it end with barely surviving?

“…noisy.”

Of course, it doesn’t matter much to me.

It’s the hardest of all the guys I’ve dealt with since possessing Faust’s body, but it’s not too difficult to kill.

Just by extending my hand forward, everything in a straight line from my hand is destroyed, and just by being conscious of it, the monsters die as their bodies are severed by space magic.

The monsters that had brilliant halos floating above their heads until recently lost their halo’s light and turned into cold corpses, and such corpses disintegrated into mana and holy power shortly after and were absorbed into the mage tower, which turned into a dungeon.

…tsk, should I just blow up the whole mage tower? I can’t quite figure out what to do.

“Haa… haaa…”

“…let’s get out of here right now. Hold on a little longer.”

Is getting Lucia out of here an urgent priority?

This holy power even makes my skin sting, but Lucia can’t stand it.

After carefully lifting the little Lucia’s body, hug her with the Princess hug. It is so light that you don’t feel any heaviness at all.

“Elias, follow me.”

“Yes?”

“So you were going to stay here all alone? I won’t stop you.”

“Oh no, go with me!”

Embarrassed at being suddenly called, Elias hurriedly catches up behind me, barely recovering his body.

…I keep feeling this, but isn’t this his original image?

Hmmm… Well, since this is not a game, but a reality, it’s not exactly the same as the original, so maybe the personality has changed a bit.

**********

“What the hell are these bastards!! Stop!!”

“Emergency! Emergency!!! Wizards who can fight now, immediately prepare for battle!!”

“Prioritize saving lives over obtaining experimental materials!!”

The accumulation did not run out of control, and the magicians of Eilyuje, who were able to survive thanks to Faust’s magic that neutralized the divine power, hurriedly formed battle formations and began to fight.

Surrounding the mage tower where monsters are protruding, the wizards, who have a form similar to a siege, are fighting while holding on to their spirits, not yielding to the dizzying divine power.

“Hmm…”

And someone sitting on top of the mage tower savors the taste of the mana accumulation and looks down at the scene.

His appearance is very similar to Serapia.

Starting with the ancient Roman-style clothes she is wearing, her long hair with an exquisite mix of silver and gold, her pure white wings that exude admiration just by looking at them, and, crucially, the halo on top of her head. Anyone who sees this can know very well that it is related to Cerapia.

“The weak ones.”

And her personality also resembles Serapia.

Every single word is filled with ridicule against inferior things, and he just laughs at the futile struggles of the wizards.

Samael.

Following Serapia’s order, he came down to offer the entire Eilyu Festival to God, and he enjoyed entertainment watching the magicians fight as if a rhinoceros beetle and a stag beetle were fighting each other.

“Then, let’s move slowly.”

After a while, Samael, who watched the mage’s futile resistance for a long time, stretches himself while standing up from his seat.

Since the body is not made of bones and muscles, stretching is a meaningless act to Samael, but to him, who is extremely human and cruel, the most important thing is always the mood.

ugh

‘Tsk, it’s a bit of a mess because the God behind the old evening suddenly interrupted.’

Samael goes ahead with the schedule, even if the schedule is slightly off.

When Samael touched it, the mana accumulation buzzed, and then it began to spin rapidly in place, and the mana accumulation that spun like that was wrapped in divine power filled with Eilyuje.

Countless rings made of divine power are wrapped around the mana accumulator, and each of the rings spins very thin and fast, so it feels like your hand will be cut off if you touch it.

No, it’s not an illusion.

In fact, it boasts tremendous density and speed to the extent that space cannot hold it and is cut along the trajectory of the sacred power ring.

‘A guy named Faust is a variable, but… Well, once you deal with this quickly, it’s all over, so it won’t matter. Looking at it, I can’t seem to get my head around the meaningless playhouse.’

Samael wants to finish turning the mana accumulator into a giant divine bomb before Faust arrives.

The mage tower built in the depths of the mana leyline that is widely spread across the continent has gathered the natural mana that has spread throughout the continent and made it into a mana accumulation, and because of that, even Samael, who has always lived only in the celestial world, Kael, is a little frightened by the high density of mana. are united with

If he used this mana to create a huge divine bomb, it would cause huge damage to the underworld, but Samael didn’t consider that at all.

He is moving only with the desire to see a gigantic explosion that even he cannot see, and the worms caught up in the explosion being swept away.

At first, he just received Serapia’s orders and forcibly followed them, but now Samael moves only with pure desire.

‘I don’t know how strong a guy named Faust is, but once this divine bomb is completed, that’s it—’

“—-Ke-ke, ke-heo-eok…!”

However, Samael’s desire disappears in an instant covered in pain.

Samael, who was giggling while imagining the future as he saw the mana accumulation of divine power, felt pain in the lower abdomen and, within a second, he fell from the mage tower at great speed and tumbled across the dirt floor. Find Faust hanging.

It was not long before he realized that Faust was not hanging, but that his vision had been reversed.
