Chapter 135
Zeus left the demon world with the other gods.
The demon world abandoned the 72 demons who pretended to be gods. Since those words came from the mouth of the King of the Demon World, there is nothing to see here.
“Hmm. Okay, everyone worked hard.”
After the gods retreated, Satan looked around at everyone and said:
Lucifer said to him:
“What trouble? “We didn’t do anything.”
“So, I had a hard time doing nothing. “It couldn’t have been easy.”
Satan’s words were half sarcastic, but half true.
Zeus’s provocations, the murderous actions of other gods, the disgust and contempt shown in their eyes without even hiding it.
As the Seven Deadly Sins, it took a lot of patience for them to endure it.
“Now then, shall we also take a look at the situation in Palma?”
“Ah yes.”
Astaroth responds immediately.
He left a gate open somewhere in Agoris. Therefore, you can see Palma’s situation with just a simple magic operation.
Only.
“… Tsk.”
There are only a few people who are displeased with the sight of Astaroth moving quickly at Satan’s command.
“Do you think there will be war?”
When Mammon asked, Satan shrugged his shoulders.
“It’s already happened. “Zeus ran all the way here.”
A screen soon opened before their eyes. The appearance was similar to the one that reflected Bael, but this one can only be seen.
“Look, what are you trying to do? Are you curious about Bael’s response?”
When Baal Zebub asked, Satan shook his head.
“No, I’m curious about Frontier.”
“… “Didn’t you act like you weren’t interested in Belphegor in front of him?”
“It was a lie. “That can’t be possible.”
Satan responds with a smile.
His eyes turned to the screen with an eerie glow.
“He was the one who made me angry for the first time in a long time. “I thought he was just talking loudly, but he brought down Belphegor.”
Lucifer nodded his head at that.
“I’m also curious about his strength. There isn’t much information available here. “How did you defeat Belphegor?”
“Besides, he’s the one who kept interfering with Satan’s plans.”
Since meeting Frontier, Satan’s plan has not gone as planned.
But Satan smiled.
“It was just a minor flaw in the grand plan. We finally got to this point, right?”
Yes. The big picture didn’t collapse.
Satan has become king, and the troublesome 72 devils will now disappear. The power of the Demon World will be weakened, but there is a path already prepared for that.
“How about this time?”
Everyone’s eyes turned to the screen at Satan’s words.
“What can you do in this situation? Frontier.”
* * *
The square where Aphrodite and Athena face each other.
Citizens, demons and gods.
And Frontier and his party are hiding and watching in the meantime.
[… Frontier.]
The crow let out a small voice.
[Bael failed.]
“You said you failed?”
[The Demon World has no intention of saving the 72 demons. Just moments ago, Beelzebub spoke to Bael.]
Gregory watched their conversation with a bird’s eye view.
He relayed to Frondier what he had heard.
“Satan became king?”
Frondier asked in surprise.
Are you saying the Seven Deadly Sins reached an agreement? To overcome this situation?
‘Then why Satan?’
Even if everyone agrees that there should be a king, it is quite another for Satan to be chosen.
If he proved it by force, he would have become king long ago, so there must be some other reason.
‘Arald asked me to become the king of demons, but the king appears anyway.’
Frondier gave up his thoughts and looked straight ahead.
Bael is also a problem, but the situation here is also urgent.
There was already tremendous tension in the hall.
But.
‘Wow, both of them are pretty.’
Only one person is different.
‘That person is Aphrodite. Truly the goddess of beauty!’
Cybel was unable to read her mood and was looking at the two in turn.
Cybel has no idea about Palma’s situation.
Because she came to Front Deer with the feeling that ‘now is the right time to come,’ the appearance voting held in the capital is nothing more than an event.
Of course, while she was enjoying the event, her sudden attack came, but now Charon, who attacked her, is standing there without even flinching.
‘What on earth is it? People look at me and say I’m the devil or god.’
Cybel says she is quite offended by being called a devil.
Because she herself had such suspicions.
She is a child loved by fate.
She is so loved that she excludes everything that hinders her.
She says that Saibel doesn’t have her divine powers.
She thought her fortune was the power of God, but God never answered her call.
That’s why she worried that she might be the devil, but she doesn’t do that anymore.
I’m not saying I found evidence that she wasn’t the devil.
She just stopped caring about such things.
“Aphrodite, you are more desperate than I thought. “I can’t believe you showed up in person.”
Athena said with a fearless smile.
People around me are shocked because they think it’s Carla’s comment.
“Stop acting poorly, Athena.”
Aphrodite’s sharp words.
From Noble mtl dot com
Athena’s eyes sank.
If a god possesses a human, other gods will avoid revealing the fact as much as possible. Because it is an act that lowers the other person’s faith.
This is close to an unwritten rule, and although it is not absolute, it is a rule that everyone follows.
‘Are you planning to tarnish my image? Aphrodite, it looks like that wound is painful.’
Athena also knows the general situation of Aphrodite. Aphrodite is stranded after suffering some kind of injury. She needs the golden apple somehow.
‘Of course, I guess that’s not all.’
Athena glanced at Cybel next to her.
Even Athena herself thought that a person with the appearance of ‘Kala’ would not be found easily.
However, all of the women brought by a guy named Frondier had amazing looks. To the point where I wonder if they intentionally looked for and recruited only those kids.
But this time, this kid suddenly pops out.
‘Etius, no, I’ve never heard that the Palind Continent has particularly pretty girls.’
Now, Aphrodite is not only concerned about the golden apples, but she will be very concerned about Cybel.
Just as Athena, the goddess of war, pursues war, the goddess of beauty pursues beauty.
Aphrodite’s problem is that that ‘beauty’ applies to herself.
Even though Athena is the goddess of war, she is not war itself, but Aphrodite tries to be beauty itself.
The tragedies born from Aphrodite’s hands due to that dangerous method are now countless.
“There you are.”
And Aphrodite looked at her Saibel.
“Oh, yes, me?”
Cybel unconsciously answered the unexpected call.
At that time, Athena felt strangely anxious.
‘No way.’
Athena sees Aphrodite.
Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty. She says that there is nothing more beautiful than her.
She shouldn’t be there.
“Just a moment, Aphrodite.”
Athena tries to stop her, but she doesn’t listen.
“Would you like to be a candidate too?”
That light word.
The person who reacted the most to that question was neither Cybel nor Athena.
She was the Front Deer who was watching quietly.
“… This.”
An invitation to participate from unrelated humans, directly recommended by Aphrodite.
Pride, or conceit, as the goddess of beauty.
Aphrodite made her mistake. She probably doesn’t even know it’s a lie now.
Frontier’s head rotates rapidly.
His magic analogy is a gear wheel. Therefore, his everyday thinking process is also similar to his.
The empty space was filled, and the gears in his head began to turn.
‘Okay, I think it will work.’
Frondier smiled excitedly and looked at Elodie next to him.
Elodie’s face wrinkled.
“… “I really don’t like it.”
“You have to save people.”
Elodie bows her head at those words.
Boom─
At that time, Frontier’s phone rang again.
[Frondier, this is Lili.]
“What is that tone of voice?”
Suddenly, it seems like I’m getting an answer on the radio.
[It’s usually done like this. Anyway, the devils look strange.]
“Huh?”
[There are some guys who are slowly retreating back. Of course, it could be a citizen, or it could be a god possessing a human. I looked at Aphrodite and saw her fall behind.]
“Those are demons.”
The demons are retreating. That is, trying to run away.
‘The gods are gathered here, and a considerable number of demons are needed to respond. At least until Satan opens the gate.’
The devils have no intention of waging an all-out war with God.
However, if everyone moves as they always did, they will just be defeated individually.
To increase your chances of survival, demons must gather together and know where and how the gods attack.
Sacrificing individual lives to save the group. The devil’s basic survival method.
However, if you try to run away, it means that the situation has changed.
‘… ‘It’s Bael!’
This change was undoubtedly triggered by Bael.
Did you tell the demons that the plan had collapsed?
Since there is no longer any need for Satan to open the gate, it is highly likely that he told everyone to find their own way to live.
‘Besides, this information will also be passed on to the gods.’
If the demon world abandoned the 72 demons, the gods would have no hesitation in killing them.
Even if you can win, fighting the entire demon world is a burden, but if all that’s left are the 72 demons and the low-level demons of Agoris.
Frondier looks around him with a stern expression.
As he catches his eye, he sees a few people slowly backing away with nervous faces.
‘Dangerous. ‘I’ll get caught.’
Right now, the gods just don’t know because they’re still hiding among humans.
If you leave this place, you will be caught immediately. And according to Frontier’s intuition, the speed with which the god chases is faster than the speed with which the devil escapes.
Once it starts, there is no turning back. If you stay still, you will miss more and more opportunities to escape.
‘If one demon starts running away, all the demons will try to run away at once. ‘Because I might be able to survive among many demons.’
Frondier thought for a moment.
Cybel is here now.
Poseidon said that the story of the golden apple was a fate that could not be changed, but with the appearance of Cybel, things began to go astray little by little.
Sigh.
Frontier has made up his mind.
And then suddenly, Sai Belle, who was in the center of the square, raised her head.
“Ah, this sound.”
She let out an incomprehensible sound.
While Aphrodite was waiting for an answer.
“Oh, I’m sorry. “Because only I can hear it.”
“… Sound?”
Athena next to me asks.
Saibel smiled brightly at him.
“For me. “I am a child loved by fate.”
“… So?”
Athena naturally thinks that what she says is a joke or an exaggeration. She smiles and answers.
“So when fate decides to meet me, I hear a sound.”
However, as Cybel’s words continued, the smile gradually faded.
“Kiririk, kkirik. While doing.”
The creepiness spreads even to Aphrodite,
“Can’t you hear?”
And then.
“Elodie, get ready.”
Frontier de Roach, takes off her own mask.
“You, what, no, hey!”
Whick!
The Frontier soars.
Spread the devil’s wings.
If it were a devil who spread its wings and flew in this situation.
‘72 devils!!’
This thought was thought by all the gods.
“Catch… !”
One of the gods hidden among humans, he spoke out without even realizing it.
But to the surprise of the flying devil,
Cheoeok.
He landed right in front of Saibel.
Spreading wings more terrifying than any other devil.
Cybel smiled broadly at him.
“Hello, my devil.”
“Sibel.”
The devil hugged Cybel.
While Cybel’s eyes were wide open, he took out a sparkling crystal,
“Close your eyes.”
Hiding Cybel in his arms,
Kwaaa—!!
Brilliant light pours throughout the square.
Everyone saw it.
Gods, humans, and even the Seven Deadly Sins in the Demon World.
A demon that has descended, a brilliant light pouring down.
Through that light.
“Test.”
Frontier.
Demonic power unlocked.
