The Devil Who Grants Wishes

65 – Infestation (4)

My vision is completely blocked by the demon that destroyed the Great Forest, and all sorts of thoughts run through my head.

Why is the devil who destroyed the Great Forest here? Could those waves of demons be the work of this demon? If so what should I do?

First of all, it’s clear that you can’t stand still like this.

“Hey, over there…”

“stop.”

I tried to say anything to somehow get through the current situation, but all I got back was a cold response.

When the mouth of the demon who destroyed the great forest opens, all the demons and my body stop as if the world had stopped.

Time doesn’t really stand still. With only his spirit, he overwhelmed all living beings except himself so that they could not move.

I don’t know if it’s one or two, but to overwhelm those countless demons like this… As expected, it’s like a demon who destroyed the great forest.

“Ugh…”

“That bastard—- Kheum, who is that person?”

“I’m seeing you for the first time…”

I can hear the faint voices of demons in the distance.

The demons who were competing with each other and trying to get me just a moment ago are just watching, overwhelmed.

As expected, those demons also instinctively realized that the demon who destroyed the Great Forest was a being on a different level from themselves.

Otherwise, I would have used every means and method to defeat this demon, just as I would have competed with other demons.

“…Kuh, get out of the way!!”

But, of course, not all demons are like that.

The devil who was leading the way moves and lunges at me, not caring about the spirit to freeze the surroundings.

“Hmm… I guess I looked down on you quite a bit.”

The demon who destroyed the Great Forest watched the scene, and then spoke in a tone as if disappointed.

However, the target of that disappointment is not toward the jumping devil.

It is one’s own spirit.

The demon of the great forest is disappointed that his spirit is only this much.

Just as there is no one who will be disappointed by the bugs when they see the bugs rushing at them.

“What’s going on with that half-ass?

A demon who ignores spirit and rushes in will, of course, face a terrible result.

The demon that destroyed the Great Forest didn’t do anything and just glared at that demon, but that demon’s body was twisted in an impossible direction.

Since the demon’s body is made up of magic and mana, no matter how deformed the body is, there is no particular obstacle to the devil’s life, but the current state of the devil is not a state that anyone can see.

That devil’s body folds like paper, breaks like small twigs, collapses like a castle made of sand, explodes like bunches of grapes, and grinds like barley in a millstone, letting out a terrible scream that shakes the soul.

I am clearly feeling the pain. It means that a demon without a physical body feels pain as its body is transformed.

“Stop it, stop it!!”

“I’m sure I said no too, so what’s the reason to agree to that request?”

“Geu-aaa!!”

No matter how much he begged, the demon’s twist would not end.

The devil screams as his body and soul are twisted together, and soon after, he is unable to scream again.

“Kureureurit…”

Pass

“There is only one way for demons to be recognized, and that is to be strong.”

Eventually, the entire body and soul of the demon disappear and become part of the natural mana, and the demon who destroyed the great forest continues to speak with an attitude as if it were a natural result.

“Will you admit me?”

“…I’ll go back.”

“You’re wise.”

The demons that used to charge at me no longer do so and choose to avoid the fight.

If they still try to do something after seeing their comrades die so brutally in front of their eyes, that would mean that they are stronger than the demon that destroyed the great forest, but that is unlikely when I saw it.

Well, to think that there is another demon this strong, then the world is truly over—

“wait for a sec!!”

…what?

do you have

One of the demons running around screamed and spoke to me.

Overall, it was in the form of a human, but the whole body was purple, and crucially, it was a very hideous demon with only one large eyeball on its face.

“Hasten the short life—“

“No, that’s not it. I want you to tell me your name. It makes no sense that the name of a strong person like you hasn’t been revealed.”

The demon with only eyeballs on his face waved his hands, raised both hands above his head, and began to make an urgent excuse.

Oh, I see.

I didn’t mean to fight, I just wanted to ask.

“Faust.”

“…!”

what…?

The demon that destroyed the great grove, no, the one-eyed demon who heard the name of Faust was terribly startled.

To the point where it’s obviously strange to me.

Of course, I was also surprised because it was the first devil’s name, but even so, I wasn’t that surprised.

Even the other demons are all showing similar reactions.

“If you’ve satisfied your curiosity, go back.”

“…Yes, I understand.”

However, Faust is so accustomed to passing over the demons’ reaction as if this were always the case.

It would be a shame and disgrace for a strong demon that his name was not widely known, as would be the case with petty demons who would be exorcised just by calling his name.

As expected, an unusual devil—-… Huh?

“Then, it’s time to talk.”

After confirming that all the demons had left, Faust turned around and looked down at me from the front.

The sunbeams shining from behind cast intense shadows and darkened the whole, but the yellow eyes still shone eerily and showed off their presence.

uh, uh… well…

You can’t run away even now, can you?

**********

“…”

The demons that had been chasing after Aren, making loud noises, no longer do so.

Just shut up and trudge back to the city.

No one gets what they want despite their hard work, which is something that should be full of complaints, but no one complains about it.

Because Serapia found the demon she had been looking for so quickly, the demon the demon had asked her to find, so quickly.

“Now what?”

“What should I do, what should I do, I shouldn’t get involved as much as possible.”

“As expected, it’s worth looking for Gwangnyeon.”

All the demons are astonished, but on the other hand, they are also convinced.

It wasn’t that Cerapia and the demons were looking for it for no reason, because it had a strength that they wouldn’t even dare to underestimate.

The demons decide that they can only survive by moving far away from Faust, so they hurriedly try to get as far away as possible.

“Once we reported it to the Demon God telepathically, there’s nothing we have to do now.”

“Okay, let’s get as far away as possible. I don’t want to die.”

“But why did that demon just let us go? If it were the many high-ranking demons I’ve seen in the Pandemonium, I would have just killed them all.”

“Well…?”

The devil’s question is perfectly correct.

This is because, in general, if the devil has done something rude to his own people, he will try to calm the situation with only his strength, without persuading him.

If he did anything that offended the demons and other high-ranking demons even a little, he would disintegrate and return to evil feelings, demons, and essence, but Faust did not do that.

This is a behavior that is difficult to explain from the demons’ point of view.

“Isn’t it annoying to care about?”

“Why would you do such a thing, just kill it and it will be over.”

“That’s true, but other than that, there’s no other way to explain—”

Kwaaa!!

At that moment, the demons who couldn’t understand Faust’s actions finally clear up their doubts.

The demons are struck by a sudden burst of dark red rays, and their bodies and souls are turned into salt and perish.

In the blink of an eye, a huge salt field is created in a straight line to the devil’s horde.

“…tsk, there’s still a lot left.”

Generally, if you kill a demon, you should be happy, but Lucia, who made this scene, is not happy at all.

It was only natural to deal with such lowly demons.

Rather, Lucia feels ashamed for not being able to kill that group in one go.

“That’s great. It’s Lucia-sama.”

[It’s a matter of course.]

“…Are these bows and arrows useful?”

“What… I’ve never seen a mine mine of this magnitude…”

However, no one is pointing a finger at Lucia.

From Aigokeros, who has taken care of Lucia since childhood, to Flora, Lena, and Celestine. I was simply amazed at the power far beyond my expectations.

“no!!!”

Except for Iris.

Seeing that the master of the contract and the demons to be sacrificed evaporated in an instant, Iris ran out with a pale face and a sword.

It is said that the former colleagues who gave Iris a huge responsibility have already disappeared, but to Iris now, that is not a very important topic.

Iris, who is able to feel Faust’s emotions, believes Faust’s words that her former colleagues were just monsters disguised as humans.

Iris, who wants to thank Faust for saving her from being tormented by her doppelgänger, just wants to hurriedly cut the demons’ bodies into pieces and save them.
