Round 2 Starts With 990,000 Points - Chapter 105



105 – Breaking the Egg (4)

Is it because of my mood?

It’s not my fault.

“Are you sure it’s a monkey?”

“you’re right.”

“Your senses could be wrong, right?”

“I saw it with my own two eyes.”

“There’s no guarantee that your eyes will match mine.”

“God himself gave the order.”

“God….”

If God gave the order directly, then it would be a monkey.

“Why does that monkey give off such a threatening vibe?”

“I don’t know… I was just ordered to execute him…”

“Hmm.”

At that moment, the monkey arrived here. Silver 4’s face crumpled in frustration. She glanced at B1 and spoke solemnly.

“Back off, monkey. This is no place for someone like you.”

B1 was relieved.

Silver is different after all.

I finally feel relieved.

The sudden appearance of a female body made me pause for a moment. I had originally intended to break her head and end it as soon as I met her, but seeing the naked body of a woman made me lose that thought. It was because it resembled a human being and made me feel uneasy.

Then, when I remembered that even demons have different genders, my uneasiness disappeared.

The male body looks like a monster, but the female body is beautiful.

If there is a Creator who created them, it seems that he created them unequally. Just like human society, demon society seems to have been unfair from the beginning.

“Back off, monkey. This is no place for someone like you.”

While I was thinking, the female demon spoke. I didn’t back down. I walked on. She was embarrassed.

“for a moment!”

I’m not the type of person who stops when someone says “just a minute.” But when a naked woman says “just a minute,” I feel like stopping.

“why?”

“B1. Get out of here.”

The male demon known as B1 shrugged his shoulders.

“Huh? Are you talking about me?”

“okay.”

“but….”

“If you stay here, you’ll get caught up in a fight. Then you might die. Do you want to die a dog’s death?”

“But then Silver 4… .”

I guessed their ranks from their names, B1 and Silver4. The females look more slender, but their ranks are higher. Unexpected.

“I will not forget this favor.”

“Stay away from them as much as possible. You won’t be able to survive the fire. Run away as far as you can without getting caught up in the fight.”

“Ugh!”

B1 reacted excessively and disappeared. Silver 4 stared at the place where he disappeared for a while, then turned his gaze and glared at me. His eyes were stingingly sharp.

I feel like I’ve become a bad guy.

The current situation is a bit confusing. When I saw a boss sacrificing himself for his subordinates in movies or other media, I thought it was far-fetched, but when I saw it in real life, I was a bit moved.

“This is the first time I’ve seen a boss sacrifice himself for his subordinates.”

This is my first time seeing this. It doesn’t exist in reality.

“Phew.”

Silver 4 sighed. It seemed like she finally had the will to fight. She was thinking that she had to finish it without hurting anyone, when she said.

“Wait a minute. Teacher. Put your fist down… .”

The tone of speech has changed.

“… Shall we talk?”

I didn’t think we could communicate, so I was shocked that they asked to talk first.

The reason I’ve been killing them up until now is not because I enjoy killing them. I killed them because they were guards protecting the eggs, and because they looked like monsters. If they could communicate, there would be no reason to kill them.

I relaxed my fist and she came towards me. She spoke in a friendly tone.

“You look Asian… maybe Korean?”

I became more curious about her identity.

* * *

Silver 4 was not a member of the clan from birth. She was a demon. She caught the eye of God and became a member of the clan. She was originally a hunter when she was human, but she was not a famous hunter.

When she was working as a hunter, the Outbound incident had just broken out and the world was going through a great upheaval, so it was a chaotic time.

She was a hunter who barely made a living, but when she was on the verge of death, she met a demon and became a mine. After that, she wandered around and became a demon herself. That happened about 130 to 140 years ago.

The way for a mine to become a devil is simple. You just have to overcome your demonic nature and awaken your own self-awareness. When you make a contract with a devil, you are part of the devil’s family, but if you overcome the devil’s demonic nature, you can become a devil yourself.

The method is simple, but the process is not simple, so it is rare for a person to become a demon from a mine. She thought that she might be the first being to become a demon from a human.

The first human encounter with the devil.

The first human to turn into a demon.

Since then, she has lived for a long time assimilated into demon society. She misses human society, but she cannot set foot in human society after becoming a demon.

She put aside her memories of the past and spoke to the man in front of her.

“I am Lilith.”

She spoke in a clear tone.

From noble mtl dot come

“You are famous as the first woman to make contact with a demon, and the first human to become a demon. I never thought I would see someone like you here… Nice to meet you.”

She held out her hand. Fortunately, the other person took her hand. They shook hands and she felt relieved.

* * *

There are few people who do not know the name Lilith.

Because even before becoming a hunter, his name was constantly listed in all kinds of media.

The first woman in human history to make contact with the devil.

And the first woman to become a demon herself.

I replied, recalling the time when I was taking classes from Demonology instructor Lee Jin-ah.

“You’re Lilith?”

“yes.”

“The first person in human history to come into contact with the devil?”

“Yes. And he is the first human to turn himself into a demon.”

“Is that possible?”

“It’s not impossible.”

It was only then that I realized. That must be why the female and male bodies looked so different.

Immediately afterwards she explained her circumstances.

He said that he couldn’t be looked down on among the demons, so he bit B1 and spoke to me strongly.

The level of change in speech is not just a change in speech, but it’s like a completely different person with a different personality.

“You came in through a recently opened passage.”

She seemed curious about the outside world. She asked me about the outside world. Since I didn’t have anything to say, I answered obediently. We talked about everyday things for a long time. This is the first time I’ve seen such a human devil. Is it because he became a devil from a human? That’s how it seems. She said.

“So what brings you here?”

“To break the egg.”

“You came to prevent disaster. Where are the others?”

I told her I came alone. She listened to me and seemed to question but also understand.

“Are you planning to interrupt?”

“no.”

“Uh. Why?”

“Should I interrupt?”

“Shouldn’t I interfere? He’s the devil.”

She shook her head.

“It wasn’t an order I received, so there’s no reason to stop it.”

“Wouldn’t that be wrong?”

“Why not?”

“You’re the devil.”

She sighed.

“The devil society is not so tightly structured.”

“There are classes… .”

“I prefer to respect each other’s will to reduce unnecessary conflicts. If it’s not God who gives the order, I don’t have to personally stop it.”

She added:

“And God tends to respect the will of the individual.”

I suddenly became curious.

“Does the devil have a god?”

“yes.”

“Is it omnipotent?”

“He is the Creator who created the devil.”

I thought of the story of Judaea. She said that she created chaos for her own amusement, and that chaos created new demons. The god of demons was probably the chaos she created.

Lilith said.

“Do you plan on continuing to break the eggs?”

I nodded.

“If you keep breaking eggs, should I help you?”

“Uh. How?”

“I’ll tell you where the egg is.”

“Wouldn’t that be wrong?”

“Why do you think so?”

“You’re the devil.”

She sighed again.

“I didn’t become a demon on my own. My first contact with a demon was to escape a life-threatening crisis. That’s why information about me, or rather, information about demons, was able to spread widely among humanity.”

“but….”

“But what?”

“You’re the devil. If you help me find the egg, isn’t that treason in itself?”

“I move of my own free will. God also encourages it. And….”

She spoke strongly.

“… I think I would like to prevent the extinction of humanity if I can.”

Is it true? I didn’t sense any hint of a lie. If you’re willing to help, then it’s a good thing for me.

“Then why don’t you just break the egg yourself? Why don’t you break it?”

“I’m not as strong as you. I can’t openly disobey. I can’t do something where the outcome is obvious.”

“Then why do you want to help me now?”

“Seeing your strength made me think that the outcome could change.”

She led me.

“Come this way.”

I followed her. I spoke as I moved.

“But aren’t you embarrassed about being naked?”

“not really.”

After a while we arrived at the egg and I broke it. She seemed to really want to prevent disaster.
