The Devil Who Grants Wishes - The Devil Who Grants Wishes chapter 177

177 – Shard of Power (6)

‘I can’t win.’

A thought passed through Cerberus’s mind.

Of course, Cerberus wasn’t serious about fighting everyone. It means that he looked at the liver with moderate strength and tried to run away straight away when he saw the gap.

But if it’s this overwhelming, it’s a completely different story.

look at the liver If you do something like that, your limbs will be cut off and you will be dissatisfied with your body.

see the gap If I had the ability to see gaps, I wouldn’t have been so overwhelmingly defeated.

The possibility that Cerberus could win, that is, to achieve his original goal of escape, was extremely low.

‘…Even so, I have to do it.’

But low probability does not mean impossible.

Cerberus, who is well aware of this fact, tries to realize that low possibility by forcing himself to stand up and then mobilizing his mind and body.

“I have something to tell you.”

“…”

Confirming that there is no hostility, Lucia and Iris only aim their weapons, but do not wield them.

It just urges them to say something more by averting their eyes or bobbing their heads.

“Why are you stopping it? If Faust-nim becomes great, isn’t it the best thing for you all?”

That’s right.

To be honest, Faust himself is the only one who wants to stop the process of making Faust the only god right now.

Everyone, including Aigokeros and the warrior party, wants Faust to be great and to be the only god. Because that is the only way to repay Faust’s grace.

If he hadn’t had that kind of heart, he wouldn’t have actively changed himself as soon as he was influenced by the god of light, and he wouldn’t have made a statue in the shape of Faust without meaning.

“…Dad hates it.”

“Faust hates you.”

But even so, Faust himself hates it, so there is no reason to force it.

They also want to make Faust great, but as much as Faust hates it, everyone including Lucia and Iris answers Cerberus’ question negatively.

Of course, only the words are negative, but the heart is completely different.

“But imagine ruling the world as the companion of the Absolute!!”

“”what??””

However, even with such a different mind, Cerberus could not help but be shaken by a word of trumpet.

partner of the absolute.

Lucia, Iris, Celestine, and… even Lena, everyone wants it.

“It’s about being able to customize the world to your taste!! A beautiful garden or a temple with 10 million people worshiping Faust!”

“…”

The atmosphere, which had been vicious with the momentum to slaughter Cerberus just a moment ago, had softened as if it had never happened, and in that softened atmosphere, a strange sense of alertness emanated.

It’s something that each other is wary of and doesn’t want to be taken away from each other.

Cerberus is extremely relieved to see everyone’s reaction.

To be honest, I couldn’t have imagined that he would listen to his persuasion as seriously as he was under Faust’s orders.

The plan to escape through the gap created after inducing a riot almost succeeded. Now, just a little more.

“Imagine!! The appearance of countless people admiring Faust-sama’s grace! And worshiping all of you, his companions—- hahahaha!?”

However, such Cerberus’s plans quickly become obsolete.

To the point where even Faust, who was trying to intervene when he sensed that everyone’s mood was getting weird, was taken aback.

The four, who had been seriously listening to Cerberus’ opinion until recently, attack Cerberus with their facial expressions completely changed as if they had never done that.

“Why am I worshiped?”

“Such blasphemous things…!”

“Even your intentions were impure in the first place, right?”

“That’s right, he just said everything to escape.”

Lucia, Iris, Celestine, and Lena looked down at Cerberus with darkly shaded faces and each said a word.

While exuding a sense of betrayal that they played with their good intentions and expectations, all over their bodies.

“It’s a cult… We’ll take care of that later. So, for now, just spit out the experience.”

After Lucia’s words, the warrior party no longer speaks useless words.

They just join forces and beat Cerberus to death.

**********

…what did I see?

Clearly Cerberus is strong. My magic and Belial’s magic, Serapia’s divine power and divine power, demons and demons, monsters, and the corpses of angels.

Even so, to beat such a powerful beast without much trouble, even though Cerberus didn’t fight with the intention of killing him, what the hell is going on…

[Kuh… It’s solid! Celestine!!]

[Attack again!! Weapon strengthening and Cerberus weakening are done properly!!]

It wasn’t an overwhelming win.

At first, Cerberus was unexpectedly attacked and his body was cut off, but after that, he joined the warrior party in his own way.

Cerberus certainly fought seriously, parrying or dodging numerous attacks and counter-attacking. Except for the fact that there was no intention to kill, I didn’t do it in moderation or anything.

But the opponent was bad.

Despite being uncomfortable with each other, the party of warriors, who were doing extremely well in pincers, was too much for Cerberus, who was not good at fighting Dain.

Because they have three heads, they are very good at 3:1 battles, but conversely, if there are more numbers on the other side, they are not good at it and struggle… Ugh, that’s ridiculous.

“Ahhh…”

“…”

Right now, the defeated Cerberus is rolling beneath my feet.

Cerberus, who had no energy left, and possessed enough vitality to the extent that he would die if touched lightly.

…Like Glacies, everyone is really good at beating to the brink of death.

Controlling damage to the point where you die if you touch it, I wonder where did you learn that kind of skill…

“Well… I’m sorry. You lived for me, but didn’t you end up like this because of me?”

“Pow, Sir St…”

“Wait a little bit. Everyone seems to have absorbed enough experience, so now I’ll infuse them with demonic energy and restore them to their original state.”

Anyway, it’s amazing.

To think that Cerberus had been harassed from all sides, and that he had raised his level that much. I thought the level would go up less because I was so easily defeated.

Mmm… well, could it be? A high level just means a high level of physical specs, right?

Considering that humans with low physical specifications conquered the entire earth, the level of physical strength may not be as important as you think.

“Fall, fall…”

The moment I put my hand on Cerberus’ body to heal him and restore him to his original state, Cerberus squeezed his neck and said so.

To fall, actually, Flora and Nero reacted that way too. You couldn’t admit that you were abnormal and refused to let my demonic spirit enter your body.

“You’re still dreaming in vain. Now stop it and relax— Ugh!?”

But something is strange.

Obviously, I am in a position where I have to put demonic energy into Cerberus’ body, but on the contrary, energy flows from Cerberus to me through my hands.

And that’s not all.

The flowing energy is divine power and divine power, and they are not neutralized by my demonic energy. Despite the fact that it had an overwhelmingly weak strength compared to my magic.

What the hell is this… kuh…

[Umm, this place is more spacious and nice.]

An unforgettable voice resounds in my heart.

The one I wanted so badly to deal with, the one punched to death for making me angry.

it’s serafia

“dad!?”

“Faust!?”

People around me are startled by my sudden strange reaction, but it is not a comfortable situation to pay attention to it properly.

Cerapia, what is this all of a sudden… Gw, is it caused by the ingredients used to make Cerberus…

Following the angels created by Cerapia, it is because Cerapia’s divine power and divine power were used as ingredients… Eup…

“…Don’t worry.”

I managed to calm my startled mind and calm my surroundings.

This cerafia is not real.

As you can see from the fact that the ownership of the Goddess of Light was transferred to me, the real Serafia was definitely dead.

If so, this cerafia is just a thought, and like Stella, Noah, and many other thoughts I’ve seen so far, it can’t do me any damage.

[Hey, there are Stella and Noah, right? There are a lot of faces I don’t want to see.]

Like that, he speaks as if he has a strong will, but there is no will in his words.

It is in a state where it does not reach the god of light and has not obtained an ego, and its thoughts are just following the steps of its owner in life.

An existence that is mere thoughtful will not be able to do any harm to me… but what should I do with this? It’s too noisy.
