The Devil Who Grants Wishes

141 – Void (7)

“That… what the hell is that…!”

Meanwhile, the young emperor, watching all of this from the balcony of the palace, screams as he twists his neck.

It’s too persuasive to dismiss it as a lie, and it’s because the situation the emperor is in doesn’t allow it.

After Serapia’s divine power disappeared and she came to her senses, the emperor blamed Faust for all of this in order not to provoke the imperial people whose faith in Serapia was dominant.

In other words, to change the language now requires the emperor to consume a large part of his own power and authority, so if the emperor’s authority declines further, the emperor will not be able to enjoy the same power as before forever.

“…These trivial things are lies! Why do you believe in such things!?”

“Yes…?”

“This light is just a brainwashing light, so don’t follow the memory completely!!”

In the end, the emperor makes a quick decision and starts to turn all of this into manipulation.

Despite realizing a firm fact by the light of truth, the emperor blindfolded and yelled at his subjects in the manner of Aung.

“Ha-ha-ona…”

“Doesn’t it change the fact that the devil named Faust was working secretly in the islands to devour the empire?! Even in the information obtained in the light of this heinous brainwashing, there is no fake information that refutes that fact. You guys are truly demons Did you mean to bring it to him and offer it to him!?”

“…!!”

The servants’ eyes brightened and widened.

Certainly, there is nothing strange about the emperor’s words.

Although this light provided all kinds of information, there was no information about why Faust was in the system. In other words, the fact that he did not make excuses is highly likely to be true.

This is a favorite trick of demons.

Telling the truth less than lying, making the victim mislead, and ultimately gaining the absolute upper hand in the contract.

Since Flora, the existence of such brainwashing, is a minion of the demon Faust, there is a high probability that she will use such tricks to resemble her master.

“Everyone knows that speaking less of the truth is a favorite trick of demons.

[hit.]

“…What?”

After seeing the reaction of his servants, the emperor, who was even more eager to argue, suddenly heard the words resounding right in front of him and doubted his ears.

right?

Do you agree that what you just said is correct?

This literally makes no sense.

Apparently, if it was a very vicious and sinister plan to take Serafia’s place by planting false information in the midst of Seraphia’s death, accepting the Emperor’s claim would cause a great setback to that plan.

[The empire should go to the two masters, so the emperor should obey my order and take the throne.]

However, Flora passed the emperor’s intentions casually.

Because Flora and the two masters she serves are not lowly enough to have to pay attention to a low-level being like the emperor.

Flora, who knows very well that Lucia has been plotting to take over the Empire, wants to do it herself to please Lucia.

“…Crazy.”

Of course, Flora’s pure confession was enough to remind the emperor that his argument was correct.

At first, it was just a random claim because he didn’t want to lose power, because he didn’t want to lose authority, but after hearing Flora’s words, the emperor realizes that what he just said was really accurate.

These things, Faust, want to kill Serafia and take the position of Serafia himself. It means to conquer and dominate the world.

The emperor and his servants, who feel the fact very desperately, do not believe the truth properly, even though all the information Flora conveyed is true.

**********

“Flora!!”

[Ah, Miss Lucia!! Mr. Faust!!]

When Lucia raised her voice to the sky and called for Flora, Flora seemed to realize that we were there.

Flora, who had been speaking solemnly to the imperials until just a moment ago, disappeared without a trace, leaving only a kind and refreshing voice.

…Was Flora originally this lively?

Until now, what was Flora… I was afraid of being exposed, so I always disguised myself as a pitiful flower, and I felt like a knight who silently guarded the surroundings unless I approached first.

“Thank God, good luck… I only knew what happened to you…”

Lucia, who is shedding tears of joy unlike the tears of sadness she had been shedding until now, sees a group of light coming this way and is sure that it is Flora, so she spreads her arms left and right.

…Looking at this, you can guess what Lucia and Flora’s bond was like.

Well, it’s Flora who has always been by Lucia’s side since she was so young that she can’t even remember, and she can have enough special feelings.

It’s just a flower demon, but it probably doesn’t feel like a sister to Flora–

“I’m glad you’re alive and well…”

Kwaaak-

“—-… Huh?”

At that moment, I suddenly felt a feeling of pressure all over my body.

Lucia, whose eyes were reddened with tears, still had her eyes wide open and her mouth fixed in a smile.

“Mr. Faust…”

When the halo of light, which was so brilliant that I couldn’t see what was inside, disappeared, there was a naked woman I had never seen in my life, and she hugged me as if it was natural.

The woman with red hair and purple eyes whispers in my ear as if she is very lovely while being hugged and calls my name, and Lucia, who only thought Flora would come to her right away, looks at me with her head bobbing in bewilderment.

This… Who is it?

“It’s Flora. Flora.”

“…”

Lies… no.

The weak magi felt throughout the woman’s body, the link between the master and servant relationship, and… the petals of Flora seen under the lower abdomen tell us very well that this woman is Flora.

It is exactly the same as Alaune’s appearance that often appears in fantasy games. Except that the skin color is normal, not green.

“…What are you doing now?”

Realizing that this woman is Flora, Lucia doesn’t have time to be astonished at the changed appearance, and is wary of a new affair partner who suddenly appears.

Lucia, who shoots at Flora with a completely firm voice, desperately conveys to Flora that she should fall immediately with her gaze and tone.

“I just… decided to be honest.”

“what?”

“Until now, I’ve been preparing myself very well to be selected… but Faust-sama is so dull, so gentlemanly that he couldn’t understand it? In that case, there’s only one way.”

Flora’s hand runs over my body.

So carefully, like stroking a beautiful pottery.

“This, profit…!”

And Lucia, who accepts such a touch as a provocation, completely throws off the atmosphere of dealing with a sister she thought was dead.

As if treating Iris and Celestine, Lucia, who changed her mood in an instant, looked at Flora with burning eyes, and Iris and Celestine also looked at Flora, glaring at a new competitor that appeared out of nowhere.

However, Flora just continued to scan my body with a smile on her face as if she liked the look and atmosphere.

And that kind of skinship rather became an opportunity for me.

It was very easy to read Flora’s current condition as their bodies were touching.

‘…what is this.’

Flora’s condition is devastating.

Previously, Flora’s whole body was filled with the demons I gave her, but now it’s not at all. Flora’s body is filled with so much divine power and divine power that it weighs down my demonic energy.

Demonic spirit and divine power exist at the same time, since they are the same as acidic and basic, wouldn’t they neutralize each other if they were together?

It really feels like common sense is twisted… but I can’t call this unrealistic as the being that is twisted with common sense is entangled in my body.

“Flora, wait. I’ll return it right away—”

“Come on, let’s go.”

“…what?”

At the moment I was about to speak to bring Flora back to normal, Flora cuts off my words in the middle and whispers to me again coquettishly.

To cut off her words midway through is so extreme that I can’t even think of it as Flora.

“This…”

The space around is shimmering.

The image of the party of warriors surrounding the two of us shimmers as if watching a mirage.

This… is exactly the same as Serapia’s power that we saw in Kael.

“Faust-nim and I, let’s go to our comfortable nest.”

And those shimmering lights show Kael’s figure.

It is not a space shimmering in rainbow colors, but a beautiful paradise that Serapia faked.

Flora’s voice sweeps through my ears, like a flytrap that catches flies, and contains a strong will to never let go.
