I Am an Evil God - I Am an Evil God chapter 44
Chapter 44-The Devil’s Necessity (2)
-Boom!
When Lem Pria’s fist touched the statue, a huge sound resounded that made her world vibrate.
The sound reached the soldiers who were waiting for the signal outside the village, and thinking that something had happened, they immediately took Lempria and Isaac’s spears and ran towards the village.
[How can a human being with a face try to stand up to God]
The sound emitted from the statue covered the entire village.
Even others who believed in Gad were confused by the eerie voice, which was much closer to the devil than the voice of a god, that their god might not be good.
“You are not a god, you are a demon.”
There were many people who were fascinated by Lempria’s words as they watched the god they believed in come out, covering the dark spirit.
Could our god really be the devil?
Could it be that we were being tricked?
Was it really right to offer humans as sacrifices to the gods?
It felt like everything I had believed in for years was slowly breaking apart.
[The Devil? The devil is Lempra! He’s an evil bastard who would do anything for himself! I am not a demon!]
“Our God is not evil. The whole world was created by the hands of God, so of course you should do as you please. And you are wrong. He takes good care of even lowly people. Unlike you, who regards humans as sacrifices.”
[Noisy! What are you talking about knowing about human beings! Humans are beings who have to obey God. Don’t talk nonsense and surrender to me!]
The statue moved greatly and dropped a fist over Lempria’s head.
– Boom!!
Where his fist landed, there was no Lempria.
Lempria was already hiding among the people.
[A year like a rat]
Gad turned her gaze to find her Lempria and walked towards her.
There were people who faithfully believed in him, not slaves to be sacrificed, but he passed between them as if he didn’t mind the death of his followers.
“Look! That’s the identity of the god you believe in!”
Isaac shouted on behalf of Lempria, who was busy avoiding God.
“The author is not a god! He is the devil who deceived you for his own sake! If you continue to follow the author, you will be turned into a sacrifice just like everyone else.”
People hesitated at Isaac’s words.
Did Gad really see them as sacrifices rather than followers?
Even those who went around saying that they could become Gad’s sacrifice slowly lost their hearts when they saw Gad not paying any attention to them.
“Come to the arms of Lemfra, even now! Your sins of following the devil until now are great, but if you believe in, follow, and repent from now on, you may die and not go to hell.”
– Boom!!
Citizens of the Lifespan lost their lives to God’s fist.
People lost their faith in the appearance of a god who no longer thought of them.
Some believers who were polar with Gad shouted that Isaac’s words were all lies and that Lem Phra was an evil god among evil gods, but it was difficult to regain the trust he had once lost.
“His Majesty! Isaac!”
Soldiers entered the village while Lempria was running away from Gad’s attack to gain time.
“Give me the spear!”
At Lempria’s cry, a soldier threw a spear at Lempria.
The spear that flew at high speed came into Lempria’s hand.
[Do you think you can fight me with a weapon like that!]
“Of course.”
Lempria raised her spear and glared at her hat.
‘Sorry, Isaac, I don’t think I can give you my head.’
Lempria gathered strength at the tip of the spear.
Blessings received from Lemfra, magic and miracles used for one-time use were invested in her tentacles and body.
Lempria’s power became many times stronger in a short period of time, and human metal, iron, became much stronger and sharper than before.
-Soowook
It didn’t end there.
From noble mtl dot com
Even the new power he had recently acquired was pushed into the tip of the spear.
Her body was filled with the energy that would later be called mana, similar to her temper.
Lempra’s power and Lempria’s power quickly merged and grew to have superior destructive power than when each had their own power.
[You’re doing something useless.]
As the tip of the spear started to glow black and red, Gad felt a threat to his survival.
He glared at Lempria feeling remorse at the momentary threat to his life.
‘To be a god and feel fear of humans.’
How could that be?
‘I can’t lose to only humans.’
No, I won’t lose to Lemfra.
Since the author could not even descend to the present world, did he not descend to the present world no matter how much he borrowed the statue?
‘I am a god strong enough to manifest in the human world.’
Even the evil god who made up his mind knew the truth.
Because Lemfra has an overwhelmingly higher rank than herself, she cannot come down to the present world.
That his rank had been lowered to the point where he could have an impact on the present world with just this amount of divine power.
But he didn’t admit it.
If you don’t consider yourself a god when everyone thinks you’re a devil, you’ll really become a devil.
[Die!!]
Gathering all the divine power in his fist, he struck Lempria down.
A fist of tremendous power fell on Lempria.
– Boom!!
His fist cut through the air.
Lempria ducked before his fist hit the ground, and his fist just hit the bare ground.
-Kwaaang!!!
The aftermath from his fist shattered the surrounding ground.
Buildings that were still standing collapsed and the ground cracked with a small earthquake.
However, there was no damage to Lempria.
“You are neither a god nor a warrior.”
Lempria ran up Gad’s arm, which was stuck in the ground.
Lempria was able to reach his shoulder while Gad couldn’t free his fist from the floor.
“Die, you petty demon.”
Lempria’s spear pierced Gad’s neck.
The blow, created by combining all the one-time powers Lemfra had shared so far and her own energy, pierced the statue’s neck.
Gad, who had already descended on the statue using all his divine power and fought a battle, finally fell off the statue with Lempria’s blow.
-Kung!!
The head of the statue fell to the ground.
It was hard to believe that it had been stabbed with a spear, and it fell upside down to the floor, showing off its smooth appearance.
“I defeated the devil!”
Lempria flashed her hand, and Deni’s soldiers began to shout like thunder.
They watched the battle of Lempria right in front of their eyes.
I witnessed with my own eyes the legend of Lempria, a monster that destroyed the ground with a single punch, and the monster that was killed in one blow.
There was an unknown subtlety in the faces of the existing residents who believed in Gat.
Is Gad really the devil?
Couldn’t it have been a god with a bad personality?
If it’s a god, does it make sense to be defeated by a human?
As the doubt grew, a dull black energy slowly leaked from the statue.
‘I can’t die like this.’
Now, there was no divine power left.
People will no longer see themselves as gods.
If that happens, you will not be able to gather divine power and will live forever forgotten.
‘I can’t do that.’
The turbid air slowly gathered.
It was very similar to divine power, but I was reluctant to touch it, so I reached out to the power.
‘I will survive.’
[Yes, I am the devil as you said.]
His teeth were grinding, but there was no other way.
‘I have to tell the name somehow.’
He could only survive if he went up and down in people’s mouths.
[I am the enemy of all gods and a failure created by the creator god.]
They brought the creator god they believe in and established their own existence.
[Don’t think that a human being can kill a demon. Only the gods can kill demons.]
The reason for the existence of demons was handed over to the gods.
Because they didn’t kill it, it gave off the impression that the demons were still there.
At the same time, they planted the belief that humans cannot kill demons.
When I said everything, even Magi ran out.
‘Is this the end…’
I no longer had the strength to remain in the present world.
[I will definitely come back.]
With those words, Gad disappeared.
Whether he can reappear in the real world depends on how many people he will follow as a demon in the future.
“…”
Looking at those who remained silent in the face of the demons fighting against God, it seemed that they would be able to regain their strength in the near future.
It was really fortunate for Lemfra.
If it had disappeared without even leaving a sense of existence as a demon, it would have been a useful tool.
