Chapter 75
“The reward for saving the entire human race.”
I laughed. Of course, I laughed out loud.
When it comes to Satan, why is the contract so blatant and clumsy?
‘Give me a monster because I won’t attack humans. I didn’t attack, so I saved a human.’
These words clearly contain ridicule and contempt for humans. However, Satan is not arrogant and speaks such things for nothing.
What he wanted me to be angry about with that provocation. Because people don’t turn their heads properly when they’re angry.
People don’t get stronger just because they’re angry. It’s not like a cartoon.
Although anger can give you the courage to create an action, the results are seldom better than no anger.
Behind these blatant remarks lies the appeal and threat of Satan’s own powerful power.
When people get angry at these words, eventually people are driven to two choices. Should I give in to anger and reject the offer, or should I endure the anger and accept the offer?
Satan is not the devil of arrogance. the devil of wrath. So he knows how to use his anger.
“It really is.”
I nodded at that.
He affirmed Satan’s words with great effort, but his eyes turned cold.
[You are thinking useless thoughts.]
“It’s useless. It’s a very reasonable idea.”
Do you know that Satan is giving me a lot of hints now?
He came out in front of me while taking his form, but I can’t just ignore the sense of incongruity I feel.
“Your proposal means this.”
I raised my finger.
“The monster I have now is powerful enough to be prepared for war with mankind from the point of view of the devil.”
[…] … It’s war, it’s funny. For me, like a human,]
“Second.”
I cut off Satan’s words and spread my second finger.
“You have no other way to retrieve the monster than to hand it over to me.”
The appearance of retrieving all the demons that have come here, holding Mizonas’s head in one hand, showing off his power, and giving me a ‘proposal’.
It doesn’t matter that Satan made a mockery offer. It is important that you make an offer. It was as if he had revealed himself that he had no choice but to do so.
“Go ahead and third.”
I raised my third finger to Satan, who suddenly shut his mouth.
“You can’t come here on your own.”
If the metamorph is that important, Satan will come and take it himself. The gate is also open, so why don’t you send other demons and you don’t come?
Satan had just retrieved tens of thousands of demons at once, and in the process even grabbed the head of Mizonas in his hands.
It was to show off one’s ability and power, but it was also aimed at some kind of misunderstanding.
The illusion that Satan himself can intervene in this world. He recovered the demons in this world with his own hands, to give the illusion that he could attack this world.
But once I know his intentions, I have information in my hands that is completely different from what he had hoped for.
“The Seven Deadly Sins do similar things to the gods.”
[…] … !]
Satan’s eyes were wide open. Haha, that’s a bit scary for a human in this world to put into words.
“You guys also need the conditions of ‘advent’.”
Just as the gods need the formidable energy of worship and wind to come to this world.
When you become the Seven Deadly Sins, you cannot enter this world with a simple contract with the devil.
‘If you think about it, yes. You can also get a book on how to make a contract with the devil, and with that book, Ambu made a contract with the devil. But in this world for a long history, even if you meet the devil, the Seven Deadly Species have never appeared.’
The answer is simple.
The Seven Deadly Sins, such as Satan of Wrath and Belphegor of Sloth, are not beings that can be met through a contract with the devil.
“That’s why you’re making such a simplistic offer. Coward who doesn’t know the subject. An idiot who can’t control his mouth and leaks information. An old, ugly bastard who throws his subordinates away to hide his mistakes. Satan’s name is not worth it.”
Instead of Satan at my rant, Philly glanced at me anxiously.
Philly must have made a similar reasoning to me based on Satan’s appearance, but from Philly’s point of view, it’s just one of many possibilities.
[…] … .]
Satan listened quietly to what I had to say and then closed his eyes.
[It’s been a long time.]
The voice he uttered was imbued with life like a very well-trained blade. If he becomes the Seven Deadly Sins, even his life will be captured and sharp as if refined.
[I wonder if there are people who still say things like that to me without hesitation.]
“Looking at your present state, all humans will mock you.”
[Fufu. is it.]
Satan laughed. smiled and laughed. As he did so, his life became darker and more ferocious.
[You have declared war on all the demons by yourself. By neglecting the lives of mankind. I can’t go there right now, but when the ground is devastated by the devil’s claws, then you too will realize your own mistakes,]
“When you become a devil, you talk bullshit. Do you even learn to bark?”
I said. I felt for myself that life was contained in every pronunciation I spoke.
I don’t know if it will become a life worse than the devil, or whether it will be able to stand up to its mighty power. But I couldn’t ignore the words the devil had just uttered.
“If the devil invades and defiles human habitation, is it the human fault? No. It’s because stupid demons don’t know the subject and put their heads on it. If you commit such atrocities, you will have nothing to say even if your neck is blown off the guillotine in the order you came in.”
Satan showed me a slightly startled face. I couldn’t tell if I was surprised by my words or by the momentum.
“Satan. Satan who teases his snout as if he knows all his anger alone. Humanity can’t afford to devote time to something like you. can’t afford to take care Say that shit again. One more day, when the foul stench of your minions flows into this land one more time, I will crush your world. The heads of the horned ones will be smashed with a hammer. They will tear winged things with a sword and play with them. I will pluck out all your claws and claws, and burn them with your fingertips in the furnace. On that day, endless lightning will strike your sky, and arrows will rain down.”
The Seven Deadly Sins, the devil who firmly exists in the highest position, Satan.
These words I tell him will sound like bluff. These warnings and threats of mine may not reach their ears.
But I am prophesying this.
“At that time, will you feel deeply that it is your own fault and repent of your mistakes, just as you once said to yourself? No. You, who have gone mad with anger, will cry and resent me even as you tore your limbs apart. No matter how much you want to look down on me, Satan. Your ugly face looks so good. So don’t be like a dog. A declaration of war? If you like it that much, say it. If this continent, the imperial palace, the zodiac, and my family and I are funny, where are you going to do it? You are a coward who wants to pass on the responsibility to others with war in their mouth. How do you stretch your head like that with only squeaky words? Know that you are ugly.”
The world of the game Etius was originally a future that would one day be destroyed. It wasn’t because of the devil.
How ridiculous it is to threaten me, knowing the future, to fear destruction.
From the moment I came to this world, I have cherished that determination for a long time.
Does Satan know that the destruction of mankind is really far away? So, do you exhale without knowing the weight? It’s just petty to me.
[──Okay.]
Hearing all those words, Satan quietly opened his mouth.
[Don’t remember everything you said. Yours should too. to meet the not-too-distant future,]
Awkward-
I smashed the dragon heart without hearing more. It was a trick to hold the black stream in hand and hold it together.

Not only the appearance of Satan, but the gate floating above the Dragon Heart also disappeared.“Whoa.”
I took a long breath after looking at the vanished seat of Satan for a moment.
Anyway, this is the end of it. All the demons are gone, and they can’t come back. The monster is in my workshop right now. I don’t know if he’ll rebel against me.
“Okay, this is the end. It is fortunate that there seems to be no major damage to the Imperial Palace.”
I smiled and looked at Philly.
“… … .”
For some reason, Philly didn’t respond to my words and just stared at me.
It was like looking at a monster.
* * *
After the situation was settled, the Zodiac and the Imperial Palace Knights returned after thorough investigation of the surroundings.
As the zodiac left, they greeted me one by one. Obviously, the way you look at me has changed little by little compared to when we first met.
Among them, the ones that changed in particular were Lili and Monty.
“Frondie, would you like to have tea with us later? Drinks are fine too!”
“Come to my house anytime. I will give you valuable skills and strength that can not be learned even in Constell!”
Each of them said this and left.
I guess it was just a greeting. Anyway, it’s nice to hear that it’s kind.
After that, I sent the Metamorph inside the workshop to the hut, Roach’s villa, using the portal.
Fortunately, he followed me quietly, so there was no major problem even in the hut to put it back into the workshop.
Metamorph is officially dead. I can’t put these dangerous objects anywhere, so for the time being, I’ll have to keep an eye on them in my workshop as much as possible. I can check inside the workshop at any time.
Why did the devil make me and Metamorph separate from each other, and what ‘mistake’ they made.
I was curious about that too, but there was something else I had to do first.
“As long as there is no Dragon Heart, Barthello’s weakened state will remain the same.”
Originally enshrined in the Imperial Palace, the Dragon Heart was to be used to restore the emperor’s energy. Of course, it was only recently that I found out that it was.
However, as the Dragon Heart was used as a demon contract, as a gate, and for the appearance of Satan, mana ran out. Most of all, I ended up destroying it.
After all, I was the one who destroyed the Dragon Heart, so I have a bit of a responsibility anyway. That’s why I’m contemplating Barthello’s recovery here.
“… … Well, no.”
-It’s actually an excuse to do it, and there’s something I want to try.
“If this works, it will help you too, right?”
“… … ?”
I said looking at the metamorph.
Metamorph was now sitting on the floor, becoming something that was neither Atji nor Pascal nor imitated by anyone.
Read at noblemtl.com
No, I don’t know if it’s actually sitting or something. It completely loses its shape and becomes a semicircular sphere, only prowling around from time to time.… … Simply put, it looks exactly like the ‘slimes’ you see in other games.
“Isn’t that just your real face?”
“… … .”
The metamorph who became a slime hasn’t said anything since before. It seems like I’ve stopped pretending and talking about it. Or that he can’t speak unless he’s in human form.
“Well, anyway.”
This is not what I am doing now.
shudder.
I manipulated the stick and sprayed the black cloth.
The black stream soon scatters and draws a certain shape. Satanic figure, dragon heart, and open gate.
It was just reliving my memories of that time.
“… … Yes, Dragon Heart has run out of mana.”
I muttered as I watched the scene reproduced by the Black River.
From the demonic covenant to the rise of Satan. To be able to do all of that with just Dragon Heart’s mana, it’s clear that Dragon Heart’s capacity is not enough.
If so, how could Dragon Heart survive?
When I had that question, I discovered the alien mana of the Dragon Heart.
‘Dragon Heart was the medium of the devil’s contract.’
In other words, the only thing that demons can interfere with in this world is probably the Dragon Heart.
If so, the reason Dragon Heart was able to withstand it might be because other mana was supplied before that mana was exhausted.
The other mana, not to mention, is Satan.
In order to maintain the gate, to use its power, Satan maintained the Dragon Heart.
That is, in other words.
“Isn’t the country able to do it?”
I obtained Helheim’s mana, and obtained mana that was much richer and stronger than the others.
Of course, this may not be as good as Satan, but after listening to Atjie, I heard that my mana is comparable to that of a demon called ‘Mizonas’.
Of course, I’ve never shown Atzi all of my mana, so that’s kind of speculation.

dragon heart
I weave a dragon heart in front of my eyes.
So far I have used dragon hearts as a method of doping.
Dragon Heart is made with my mana, so if you swallow it, you have to make up for the shortage with something else as mana increases. Until now, Penelope’s cloth has replaced it.
But this time the order is reversed.
Instead of replenishing my mana by eating dragon hearts,
To fill the empty mana volume of Dragon Heart with my mana.
“Dragon Heart was a ‘mana crystal’.”
Everything I’ve made so far has been nothing more than a fake.
As for Dragon Heart, I might be able to create a ‘real thing’.
