The Devil Who Grants Wishes - The Devil Who Grants Wishes chapter 167

167 – Recapture (12)

[…dad?]

[Could you say that again? What? how? Do you?]

Naturally, this is the result of coordination with the party in advance. Everyone who was wondering what my plan was to bring down Flora, as soon as they heard the plan, all their curiosity was blown away, and they spoke in a tone as if they were interrogating me.

Everyone’s expressions softened when he explained that it was just a lie and that this was the best way to get Flora out of Kael.

I’m not sure why I have to explain this, but anyway.

“…becoming abominable.”

“I heard it’s dark under the lamp…”

“Faust-sama and Lucia’s predictions were really correct.”

Seeing Flora appearing in an instant as soon as I finished my words, everyone in the warriors’ party reacted similarly.

Although there are differences in many ways, such as the tone and tone, it is the same that everyone is shocked or dumbfounded when they see Flora’s intentions.

…What kind of feelings do you have for flowers?

The current Flora, well… It’s a half-human figure to be called simply a flower, but after the work is over, it will regain its former appearance like Nero anyway.

“Mr. Faust!!!”

Flora, who found me high in the sky, screams. Screaming is a word that doesn’t quite match Flora’s appearance, but what can you do with such a thing in reality?

A scream that is the opposite of the beautiful woman’s appearance covers the sky, and the scream that covered the sky eventually descends to the ground and pierces everyone’s ears.

“Finally… finally…!”

Flora’s voice full of emotion and excitement fills the air everywhere. His voice is so loud that he cannot communicate verbally with others.

Of course, even if it does, there is no big problem. Everyone has already told us what to do, and above all, we can communicate enough with our eyes and gestures, even if it’s not words.

Seeing Flora approaching this place, the warrior party moves to their respective seats, and when the signal is received, they immediately capture Flora or take a position and posture to block her escape.

‘…Looking at it like this, it’s obvious.’

The appearance of the warrior party is so awkward. If you look even a little carefully, you can very clearly see that they are trying to grab onto something.

Who is this unnaturally spread all over the place and blocked the retreat?

“You understand my sincerity… Thank you, thank you…!”

But Flora doesn’t notice.

Perhaps she bit the bait in front of her eyes too strongly, and she is paying attention only to me. Despite the fact that Lucia, whom Flora has served up until now, is watching with cold eyes from beside her, Flora only has eyes for the reward I lied about.

…This feels pretty bland, doesn’t it?

If Flora had been in the form of a flower like before, I would have been okay, but seeing her blushing with joy in her human form… Uh… Um…

I don’t know, I just need to finish the job well.

“When will you receive the reward–“

“…?’

Just a few steps forward, and at the moment when he was able to grab onto Flora, Flora’s attitude suddenly becomes strange.

After holding onto Flora’s body tightly to prevent her from running away, she tried to erase the influence of the Goddess of Light by injecting a lot of demonic energy into it, just like Nero did, but Flora suddenly stopped right there and didn’t even move.

No, strictly speaking, it is fine. It’s a problem because that kind of motion is like the trembling of the facial muscles or the constriction of the pupils of the pupils.

“…Faust-sama, that shouldn’t be the case.”

The atmosphere around them changes.

If just a moment ago, hopes of a girl who could achieve her dreams were filled everywhere… Now it is filled with depression and anger of a girl who has become a witch because her dreams have been betrayed.

…was it caught?

“I mean, the girl I love… I can tell what the other person is thinking, what they’re aiming for, and whether they’re lying.”

Flora’s betrayal-filled eyes look at me.

Flora’s eyes were filled with all sorts of emotions, how she could do such a thing to herself, how she could lie about something so important.

Flora’s petals, which always emit a fragrant smell, gave off a terrible stench as if it had never happened.

Ernie… what is that? I thought I was caught because I made a mistake, but did I become like this because I intuitively recognized that I was lying?

“Flora, come here. As much as you want—”

“no, I do not want!”

Kwaaa!

Flora cries out once, Sona wakes up, and then the church’s walls and columns crack.

Even though that sound did not contain any mana, magic, divine power, or divine power.

Everyone frowns at Flora’s deafening roar, but as planned in advance, they rush in and try to catch her before she runs away.

However, this is just a futile move.

Flash!

“Wow!?”

“what…!”

The light emanating from Flora’s body was enough to blind everyone, as if the sun had appeared in front of them.

Even with their eyes closed, the brilliant light blinded them, and everyone in the hero’s party came to a standstill.

“If that’s what you’re thinking… I got it.”

In a space where everyone has gone blind, Flora, staring at me, says so.

Feelings of betrayal, anger, despair, and even affection. It is a look that expresses all kinds of emotions.

“Anyway, I came here with the intention of connecting with Faust-sama from the beginning. If that’s the case… I’ll have to do it somehow.”

Flora’s body, to be precise, the flower’s body, which started from the lower abdomen, began to change into a grotesque. The petals, which were beautiful and fresh, lost their color and began to turn cloudy, and the thin stems are becoming colorful and thick.

And that’s not all.

Eyeballs sprout from petals, stems, and leaves and start looking at me, and countless thorns that grow next to the eyeballs drip poison. The poisoned floors are melting with a harsh sound.

“I don’t know anything else, but you shouldn’t have done this to me.”

However, unlike the distorted flower, the human body of Flora is very calm. Except that his face was so red that it covered his green skin, and his pupils constricted to their limits.

…haaa.

To be honest, Flora won’t do me much damage. Even if she tried to fight me like this, Flora would know better than anyone else that she wouldn’t be a match for me.

However, Flora now doesn’t seem to care about such things. Literally, I committed the betrayal of playing with Flora’s feelings first. Blinded by a sense of betrayal, Flora is just trying to subdue me by force and receive the ‘reward’ I talked about.

‘…Write, it wasn’t a lie.’

Once the work was done well and Flora was returned to normal, he had the heart to give Flora the reward he had told her about. It wasn’t that difficult, and wasn’t it what Flora had longed for above all else?

Of course… Flora, who has returned to her original form, is just a flower, so if I were to give a reward to Flora, it would look very strange from the outside… Anyway, even if Flora used her feelings for me as bait, the reward itself was a lie. was not.

The present Flora seems to be running rampant, judging that the fact that she used that emotion as bait itself is a lie, but the current Flora is not rational enough to correct that misunderstanding.

Does it have to be beaten once and for all?

I don’t know if it’s Noah, Gaia, or Cerapia, but I’m quite reluctant to attack Flora, who has served me for a long time… well, since she’ll be weak, I’ll deal with it quickly—

“How… how…! A girl’s emotions are nothing but bait…!”

‘…what.’

Something is strange.

Just because Flora is angry, the energy in Flora’s body is too unusual.

It’s like looking at the sun.

It emits a very bright light, and in real life it is hard to feel the energy, but in reality it is burning very hot and surpasses any other energy, like the sun.

‘The Divinity of Light…!’

And the answer to that question was immediately apparent.

Because Flora’s body was imbued with the spirit of light.

Although not recognizing Flora as the owner of the Goddess of Light, the Goddess of Light, which recognizes Flora as an agent, seems to have decided to give Flora its full power.

The power of the god of light transformed Flora’s thinking into an aggressive and impulsive one, as can be seen from Flora’s actions.
