The Devil Who Grants Wishes

“Yes…?”

In a deep corner of the forest veiled by her, Iris, as she always turns over her clothes, puts a hand on her own lower chest, making her squeaky sound.

Her bewildered voice and tilting her head would be enough to make the men who see her take her heart, but unfortunately, the only person watching this scene is her same-s*x Lena, so she doesn’t feel the charm properly.

Of course, apart from Iris exuding her charm, the situation is quite serious.

“Why?”

“Nothing… nothing from Faust-sama…”

“…Yes?”

Lena responds to her Iris’s words as if it’s absurd.

‘Cause it’s always happened

She’s never had a direct conversation with Faust, but she remembers Lena as well as she’s been watching Iris ever since and she doesn’t even give Faust a proper answer.

But I can’t even understand why I’m so upset over something like that.

“Isn’t it always the case that no reply came?”

“No, no… I don’t get a reply, but my feelings come every day…”

“emotion?”

Lena makes an even more mysterious expression.

Feelings come, what do you mean?

It is only the power of the devil to feel the emotions of others. Being able to feel the emotions of others is no different from seeing through the mind of the subject.

“Yeah… disliked, frightened, terrified, scared, things like that…”

“…”

After hearing Iris’ words, Lena can’t imagine that Faust felt that way, she does.

She can, of course, even dislike it.

But the things after that make no sense at all.

Are you shocked? Are you scared? are you scared

Why would such a demon feel that kind of emotion that could kill even a small animal with just his eyes and his expression?

“Faust-sama, Faust-sama…?”

“…”

However, Iris continues the conversation alone, regardless of Lena’s doubts.

Iris put her hand on her lower chest with her clothes turned inside out and muttered to herself, and Lena, seeing it, instantly made her mistakenly believe that Iris was a person who was not comfortable with her.

But her impression is not entirely wrong.

Because Iris had endured unbearable pain with her girl’s body.

Iris, who had fallen into the depths of her despair, had lost her mind a lot.

She calmly solves what she can’t solve because she has become dependent on Faust.

Iris, who has had to solve everything on her own with no one to lean on until now, suddenly found a strong support.

It’s no wonder that her helpless Iris has come so far to lean on Faust, who saved her so many times.

Of course, the intensity is too much.

“Faust-sama… Faust-sama…!”

“Iris??”

However, even so, this can certainly be seen as strange.

Iris’ voice began to carry more and more emotions.

At first, Iris was only singing in a bewildered voice, but now she is weeping and singing Faust in a voice as if penitent.

Lena, who sees it, struggles with her hands in the air to dry her Iris, but Iris is only interested in Faust.

“Why, why? Faust-sama… Faust-sama…!”

‘I can’t show this to the party.’

With no way to get Iris out of her own world, no matter how hard she tries, Lena changes her priorities.

I can’t show her Iris this way to her Iris companions.

Of course, if you think rationally, it should not be said that it is a great disrespect and insult to not notify a colleague of a health condition to a colleague, but Lena is following her instinct rather than reason because she feels a great sense of incongruity when she sees the warrior’s colleagues who seem to follow the set rules. are acting

“For now, stay like this, wait a minute, okay?”

“Why, why… Faust-sama…!”

Lena leaves her priority seat in order to make various excuses to prevent Iris’ party members from coming here, or to stop them by any means possible.

Iris leaves Lena, but she doesn’t care and she just calls Faust.

**********

“Dad?!”

Startled Lucia is calling me hastily from behind her back, but her head is pounding so much that she can’t answer it.

Perhaps it was because she had never felt any pain after possessing Faust’s body, and although the amount of absolute pain must have been small, she was emotionally quite painful.

[Faust-nim, Faust-nim-]

Contrary to her just, the intensity of the overlapping words has greatly diminished, but seeing that the horses are still flying, Iris seems to have continued to search for me.

I can only guess the reason why this happened…

Keying-

‘Also.’

When the portal was created by stirring the air roughly, the portal is now operating normally, unlike the previous time when the coordinates were forcibly changed to the space of the goddess.

Beyond the portal, a forest that does not appear to be a trace of civilization is clearly visible.

In other words, the identity of the wave of the call that was just there was that Iris’ voice, which could not reach me due to the goddess’s subspace blocking, immediately rushed to me as soon as the goddess’s intervention in the underworld ended.

No, what else happened!?

‘I wonder if Seraphia did anything to Iris while I was arguing with Seraphia’s alter ego?’

If so, that’s a big deal.

Seraphia clearly recognized me as an enemy, so she may have done something to Iris. Like a lot of brainwashing I’ve seen so far.

That’s not okay.

As Iris progresses through her story, she must gain the strength to bring Seraphia to her underworld.

No matter how many playable characters remain, there is only one hero who has been blessed by the goddess in the story, so if that happens, it will be a catastrophe. The means to hit Seraphia completely disappears.

Keying-

He hurriedly opened the portal to Iris.

The aftereffects of Seraphia’s intervention remain, and her coordinates are assigned to the vicinity of Iris instead of just in front of her, but this should be enough.

“…Daddy? Are you going to that girl again?”

At that moment, Lucia’s cool voice grabbed my leg from behind.

There is a lot of resentment, as if she left herself and where are she going now.

yeah right

I can’t go alone

“Lucia, let’s go together.”

“…yes?”

Seraphia won’t be able to interfere in the lower realm, but she still has an if.

Isn’t that the case of Celestine, who is floating around with her hands and feet right here by my side right now, I don’t know about?

When I go to meet Iris, Lucia and I are separated into subspace again, and Lucia may be attacked by Seraphia.

“I can’t leave you alone anymore.”

“👌!?”

What happens once can happen twice, and it can happen three times.

Isn’t that just stupid if you don’t take action for what has already happened?

‘In this situation where Seraphia clearly recognized me as an enemy, I must not leave Lucia’s side anymore.’

Seraphia is a raid boss monster that appears right before Faust, and in terms of pure strength, it would be weaker than me, who possessed Faust, but that does not mean that I can overwhelm Seraphia.

Have you not been able to properly respond to Seraphia’s subspace blocking right away?

If the gimmick and various patterns are mixed, and there is not much difference in the level, I cannot guarantee that I will be able to completely overwhelm Seraphia.

Crucially, I do not know the pattern of seraphia at all. I don’t know, how do you deal with it?

“Ah, no… that… suddenly…”

“Come on.”

“…Yes.”

At my repeated prompting, Lucia bowed her head down, and she approached me immediately.

Anyway, so Lucia and I must never be separated from now on.

Of course, it’s not completely clingy, but at least you have to be physically within 5 seconds of reach, and your magic must be within immediate reach.

The magic that emanates from me… it doesn’t matter anymore.

Clearly, Lucia just exhaled magical energy.

…I’ve been doing everything I can to prevent a future like this, but in the end, it’s very frustrating.

I’ll have to pretend I don’t know until I have the courage to confess to myself.

“Hey, let this go!!”

At that moment of despair and bitterness, Celestine’s voice suddenly pierced my ears.

Oh right.

Wouldn’t it be better to take Celestine with you first?

I can get Seraphia’s spirit, but I don’t know what will happen if I leave it alone. I’ll have to keep an eye on it.

“Dad? Why is this woman-“

“Why?”

“–No, it’s nothing.”

At that moment, Lucia suddenly tilted her head and was embarrassed, pretending not to know even though her dissatisfaction had not subsided.

Hell, it would be nice if you could tell me the reason, but Lucia doesn’t always speak properly, so it’s a mask.

She says what she likes, but other than that, she doesn’t say it until the end. It’s a pity she looks like me who can’t speak properly.
