The Devil Who Grants Wishes

158 – Recapture of Fellowship (3)

“Fa, long live Faust!! Long live!!”

“…Is it here too?”

No, strictly speaking, the scope is too broad to be called ‘here’. Of all the villages I had reached, there was no place where Faust’s name was not compelled to be chanted.

To be honest, I’m afraid that not only here, but all places on earth have become like this, but I still have a vague expectation that there might be a place I haven’t passed yet, so it’s too humiliating to not be able to let go of hope.

“why?”

“hehehehe, this side is different again.”

“It doesn’t seem to matter if I go in, but… Well, I can’t help it that Faust-sama hates it.”

Of course, the warrior party who saw it, to be precise, the three people excluding Lena did not understand my judgment.

The actions that Flora and Nero are committing are too radical, but it is a reaction that can never come out unless it is based on the perception that it is only radical, but in the end, it is the right thing to do.

…Why did everyone change like this? I don’t know if it’s Lucia, but I remember the other two as being perfectly normal when we first met.

I’m glad Lena is still so calm.

“What, what is it…”

Receiving my gaze, Lena shrank like a snail’s antennae touched by her finger. It’s as if the fact that I’ve been stared at like that is very burdensome.

…what?

I’m not a kid who would react like this…?

Yes, I’m sure I’m taken aback by the sudden gaze, but there’s no way I’ll show such a dynamic reaction… Well, could that be?

If a person shows a certain reaction as always, is that a person or a machine?

“…First of all, I’ll have to camp today. After a good night’s sleep, I’ll use the portal to quickly scan the points pointed out by Gaia.”

“Is it today?”

“Today, to be honest, isn’t the house Faust-sama created more comfortable than any other inn in the city?”

“Well, it’s not like that.”

As always, the party of warriors, who decided to sleep in a luxurious mansion instead of just camping, reacted accordingly.

I can’t keep doing this like Lucia said… but I have to hurry up and finish the journey with Noah quickly. Although there is a life limit problem, this is not a part that requires force, so the purpose of the warrior party will disappear after Noah is defeated.

…When you think about it that way, it’s surprisingly complicated.

At first, I created a party of warriors just to desperately follow the story because I couldn’t know how the future would play out and I lost my sense of morality, but now, well… it doesn’t really matter.

After Cerapia’s death, I don’t know how the story will progress, and above all, I can’t blindly believe in the original because the story has already been twisted. In the first place, the guy named Noah is completely different from the original story I know, right?

In other words, there is no need to hold on to the warrior party far away. To be honest, I think I can handle Noah alone, so I can disband right now.

‘The problem is that they won’t accept it.’

I wouldn’t know if it was Lena, whom I paid to hire for the warrior party from the beginning, but the other three serve me too much. To be honest, if I declare that the warrior party is disbanding, I will be forced to insist that from now on, I will not be a party member, but just serve me.

Hey, now I don’t know what will happen. For now, we should only think about dealing with Noah and breaking the life limit.

According to the crystal ball shown by Gaia, Noah is looking for another god to be a host, just like he did to Gaia. Of course, a god cannot exist for long in the underworld. Gaia, who fell into a state of suspended animation and whose interference by the Underworld led to the full bloom of life, is a peculiar case, and generally, like Belial and Seraphia, she completely devastated the Underworld.

In other words, Noah will use the followers of a certain god as a link to approach the god they believe in, and do the same thing he did to Gaia.

Serafia has long since died, and I have already told Belial to prepare for it, so what I need to do is to select major gods whose followers remain in the world and check their status.

‘Let’s see… In the original work, despite the worldwide dominance of the Serapian Church, the gods who still systematically believed in themselves were religious, except for Gaia and Belial… Gulbeig, Neptune, Tiamat, etc. About 10 people?’

do a lot

First of all, the more scenes that can be used in the story, the better, so when making the original game, it can’t be helped that they were randomly created, but I can’t help but think that there are too many.

It’s certainly absurd that the Church of Seraphia remains like this even though it has wiped out all other faiths for thousands of years.

…for the story, I should make it a little while sleeping.

Kwaaa!!

“Hee, hee hee…”

“Sa-save me…!!”

With a huge roar, countless minerals and piles of dirt flew in all directions.

If you stand still like this, you will be hit in the head by the flying debris and will leave this world as it is, so the natives, no, the dwarves, who are facing such a storm head-on, lie on the ground with their heads wrapped in their hands. there is.

Looking at this scene from the side, it seems like they are praying for something.

No, strictly speaking, it would not be much different from prayer.

Prayer is an act in which a lower being bows down to a higher-ranking being for life or a wish, in other words, it is no different from what the Dwarves are doing right now.

The dwarves lay down and seek their lives, praying that the attacks of the two mighty men would not reach them.

Kaaa!

“To resist in vain!”

Nero’s roar echoes everywhere with the sound of steel being crushed.

Nero’s roar rides through the dust storm and ruthlessly disturbs the hearing of all the dwarves inside the storm and the creator of the storm.

[…There’s a lot of talk about cats.]

However, without knowing the dwarf, Gulveig, the man who created the storm, accepts Nero’s threat casually.

Of course, it’s okay to say that it’s nothing, since all parts of the body have been considerably damaged by Nero’s attack, so it’s a little out of shape.

“How about you being attacked by such a cat? Are you a rat eaten by a cat?”

[You bastard…!]

Up until now, as a god, he has always been praised by someone, but he has never been insulted, so Gulveig is very angry at Nero’s simple insult.

Above all, as Nero said, as long as he is clearly being pushed by Nero now, if he doesn’t get angry, even that can’t be denied, and he doesn’t stand up to his followers, that is, the dwarves, so Gulvei Nero is even more angry than he expected.

“You’re so weak, I shouldn’t have come myself.”

Realizing that insults are having a significant impact, Nero gradually raises the level of insults.

It is not insulting with the fact that it is made up of lies.

Gullveig isn’t as strong as Serapia in terms of basic specs, and his faith hasn’t spread so much that he gains a lot of power, so, as Nero said, Gulbeig is weak in many ways to be considered a god.

Even though there was no existence that could be called as strong as his master, Faust, as the object of comparison of strength.

[To act as if you have the whole world just because you gained strength from a subject you don’t know anything about… that’s stupid.]

“Isn’t it right that he has the whole world because he is the god of light? He says all sorts of new things.”

[As expected, he behaves as if he embodies the word ignorance, befitting his appearance. Since the family is like this, they should know the state of the owner—- kuhuhh…!]

Gullbeig’s words do not end properly.

Whether it’s an insult to himself or not, Nero, who can’t just ignore the insult to his great masters Faust and Lucia, throws his hand out and strikes Gulbeigue’s body.

Gulbeig’s body, made of metal, was hit by Nero’s hand and made a crumpling sound, and all the dwarves who saw it were frightened and doubted their own eyes.

“…Thank you for saying that. No matter how much it is for the sake of the cause, there was a sense of reluctance to kill an innocent person, but now it is not about killing an innocent person.”

Kkang-kaang-!

Nero mercilessly slams Gulveig on the floor. With each strike, Gulbeig’s body made of steel collapsed, and at the same time, the earth shook as if an earthquake had occurred, making the dwarves who saw it feel numb.

It’s not just the dwarves.

‘…what the hell are these.’

Noah, who is watching all of this using the senses of the angels by Nero’s side, is also shocked at the level of his family that far exceeds expectations.

Although he knew that Faust was strong, he could not have predicted that his followers would be so strong, so Noah abandoned his plan to devour his followers by force.
