The Devil Who Grants Wishes - The Devil Who Grants Wishes chapter 136

136 – Void (2)

“Stella!! Gentlely give up that position right away—”

“great.”

“—-…What?”

Serafia was taken aback.

To believe that a being with divine authority, a being with the divine authority of light, which can be considered the noblest divine position, would so meekly accept the threat to surrender his divine position.

“What’s the plan? Could it be a trap?”

“It’s not like that.”

“…Don’t lie!!”

Serafia’s hands gripped Stella’s neck.

Grabbing the neck of a being without a physical body like Stella would not harm her life at all, but Serapia didn’t care about that.

Just as instinct leads, I just want to grab the neck of the existence that has what I want and threaten it.

“I’d rather ask, why do you want this position?”

“I’m asking something very obvious. What kind of person in the world wouldn’t want to be in such a position that would be envied by everyone?!”

“…is it.”

Stella reads Serafia’s mind.

I read Cerapia’s sincerity, Cerapia’s instincts, and Cerapia’s emotions.

And Stella draws one conclusion.

“Would you like to try?”

“…What?”

“God of light.”

That Serapia is a person who is very suitable for the task she is doing.

That Seraphia would easily throw the world into chaos without any guilt.

Serapia, who had no sympathy, knew that the Goddess of Light, no, would be able to control life as the world wanted.

If she can hand over her task to such a being, she can be freed from this endless emptiness and guilt, so Stella has no resentment towards Serapia for committing a rebellion.

To hold a grudge against a being who could liberate you? Stella even feels grateful to Serapia because such a thing is ungrateful.

“…tsk, sneaky bitch. You still lie.”

However, Serafia sees Stella’s attitude and becomes rather wary.

It has no choice but to do so, because the person whose divine power is extracted from his body will lose his life.

Serapia’s words to give up her trust were no different from saying that she would kill you.

If you’re going to kill you and you’re so cooperative, of course anyone will be wary.

“You must know. The power of the light dwelling in my body is evaluating you.”

“…”

“If the Goddess of Light judges that you are fit to assume the role of a new god, then I have no choice.

Serafia shuts her mouth.

Stella is too pitiful and too tired to be a being with the divine power of light that governs everything.

Above all, as Stella had said, since the god of light was evaluating her, Serafia realized that from that moment on, Stella’s will was irrelevant if the god of light chose her.

From that moment on, Serapia just calmed down and hoped that God would choose her.

“It’s okay… It’s okay… It’s okay…!!!”

And soon after, Serapia succeeds in being chosen by the Goddess of Light as she wanted.

Cerapia is greatly moved by the exhilarating pleasure of the light that wraps around her whole body, and that she is trampling on Stella, who always looked down on her with contempt, with the sole of her shoe.

Although she felt slightly offended that Stella, who was crawling on the floor, was looking at her with pity-filled eyes, Serafia didn’t care.

It was because the pleasure of being wrapped around the body was higher than the bad feeling.

“I’m grateful that you obediently showed your confidence, but that’s about it. All traces of your existence will be erased forever in the future. You foolish bitch.”

Serafia, who realized what she had to do from the moment the god of light entered her body, laughed at Stella’s weakness deep in her heart.

It’s because she’s so weak that she can’t handle the dignity to despair so much about having to clean out the bugs periodically.

Serapia, who was chosen by the Goddess of Light, tries to immerse herself in the work of causing chaos in the world by periodically bringing death as the Goddess wants and the world wants. Of course, you gain some strength along the way.

“…thank you.”

“what?”

“Aren’t you going to erase my ugly traces? I beg you, please erase them without a trace.”

“…This bitch is still talking.”

Serafia frowned at Stella, who didn’t despair or desperately cling to her.

What does this mean?

Wasn’t it the end of Stella, who always looked down on me indifferently, howling and clinging to me, wanting to live somehow?

But… what the hell… what the hell…

“No…! No…! I can still do more! I can do it!!”

Why am I copying the end of Stella that I imagined?

Abandoned by the god of light, abandoned by the world that manages the god, why on earth am I, not Stella, struggling to live somehow?

This… No, I didn’t want a future like this.

It’s not that I was chosen by the Goddess of Light to end it like this.

What the hell… what the hell…!

Yes, this is because Stella handed over her trust. If it wasn’t for that… I wouldn’t have died with such a terrible look…!

Stella… Stella… There she is.

Four years, four years dare to make me… make me like this…!

It’s all your fault, if you hadn’t given me the honor… This cursed bitch—-…

“Oh, Dad… there are still Flora and Nero…”

“…Even demons from the underworld couldn’t retreat.”

“Kuh…”

Lucia’s weeping voice and Belial’s grievous voice disturb my ears.

Due to the sudden retreat caused by an abnormal situation, the minions who surrounded and blocked the angels still remain in Kael so that we can fight Cerapia smoothly.

“The portal… doesn’t open. It looks like the coordinates have been completely reversed, so it will take a lot of time to find it. Since the space itself is different, I can’t even use the authority to know the location of my followers.”

“I can’t…”

We need to get everyone out as quickly as possible. If the divine power that fills the space like that blows at everyone who remains in Kael, it will be ruined by the divine power in a short time.

But… I can’t. I want to pull it out like a chimney, but the coordinates themselves are completely jumbled, so I can’t create a portal with crystals.

“Don’t worry, I’ll find a solution as much as possible. Everyone has been strengthened with my magic, so they should be able to withstand it to some extent.”

“Yes…”

“Faust-sama is right. You will be able to withstand it, so don’t worry too much about Lucia-sama.”

I who say these words, and everyone else who hears them, can see how absurd my words are.

No matter how much he was strengthened by demonic energy, even Faust’s own body couldn’t stand it, so he hurriedly ran away. How long could he last?

But that’s the only thing I can say right now, so neither Lucia nor I make any comments. Can not.

“Kuh… First of all, I have to open the portal randomly and check it—-… What is it?”

“Yes…?”

And in the meantime, I feel the quality of the light change. Looking at everyone’s reactions, it seems that I’m not the only one who felt this.

The sun stays in the same place as always and warmly shines down on us, but the light emitted from the sun is somewhere vastly different.

Obviously, there is no difference in appearance, and there is no difference in feeling warmth.

As an analogy… it’s like seeing different handwriting for each person.

The purpose of conveying information is the same, and the amount and quality of information that can be accepted are exactly the same, but if the font or font is different, something feels different.

“Sir, it seems that it is already too late.”

“…You’re late?”

“The owner of the Goddess of Light has changed. And the owner is… Mr. Seo.”

“…”

Belial’s words that followed were enough to send me into shock.

Are you the owner of Shinwi?

The divine power of light did not dwell in my body, and the divine power did not come out of Seraphia.

Generally speaking, Belial’s words would of course be wrong… Unfortunately, the situation is going so that Belial’s words cannot be refuted.

“What the heck… how…”

[It’s an absence.]

“…!?”

A voice like a babbling stream or the chirping of grass worms pierces my ears.

It was very awkward and unfamiliar because it was the first time I heard it in Faust’s body.

“…Gaia.”

[You know me.]

When I turn my head and look at Gaia, the owner of the voice, Gaia gently closes her eyes, greets me, and says so.

Gaia seems a bit surprised that I know her voice despite not seeing her in person and having never introduced herself, but after sneaking a glance at Irene, she nods and understands.

I don’t know why I understand why, but the important thing right now is not that, so I’ll move on.

“Acknowledgment of absenteeism, what do you mean?”

[It’s literally. The world was thrown into chaos by your sudden disappearance, and in the end, they recognized you as the owner of the Goddess of Light despite your absence, using the links of your remaining relatives in Kael.]

Perhaps if you go to Cael, the spirit of light will dwell in your body in an instant.

Gaia followed suit as if it were natural, but she couldn’t properly concentrate on those words.

To say that the world recognized me as the owner of the Goddess of Light using the connections of my people, which means Flora and all my people there… God damn it…
