Chapter 122

“No, no means. Are you saying that the skeleton is the Archduke [Gremory]?!”

Christopher spoke first in a shocked voice.

I nodded, after which put just a little extra drive into my sword.

My sword is now reaching the bottom of the neck. I really feel it come to life, and the skeleton slowly begins to tackle the type of a human being.

A gorgeous girl, off-white in colour, with darkish black hair, pupils engraved with a singular sample, and the image of the demon Baal uncovered between her clavicle. A mountain goat image is outstanding.

This is likely one of the archdukes like Paimon, the demon who introduced the curse on Kramsar.

[Gremory].

“It’s a curious factor, I’ve by no means seen a human in these ruins who wasn’t affected by illusions, and I’d wish to ask them how they did it.”

With that, Gremory gently pushed my sword away along with her raised fingertips.

A quick trickle of blood types on the tip, however it heals shortly; the Archduke’s resilience is an excessive amount of for me.

‘Paimon was like that after. He had great protection. Even in his weakened state.’

However he doesn’t reveal the reality. He merely asks her as bluntly as he can.

“Why did you intend to make use of Kramsar to curse Tahalin and eat the dominion?”

“Isn’t there just one factor a sealed demon desires?”

“Resurrection.”

“Sure.”

Her meek admission, however I discovered it humorous.

For one factor, she might by no means be resurrected within the Internal Lunatic that I knew.

And for an additional factor, she might by no means damage me. She could have nice energy, however she has limitations.

And at this second in time.

I had a hunch that the right time to deliver it out had arrived.

“I perceive that an angel sealed you previously.”

“……what?”

For the primary time, her stoic expression twisted.

What the hell is he speaking about?

The look on her face mentioned all of it.

In fact, I don’t know the entire story.

I relaxed into Gremory’s bewildered expression and thought again to a time once I was having fun with the sport.

Gremory. One of many 72 demons, why did she must be caught in these ruins, underutilized in the principle story?

The rationale for this was hidden previously.

* * *

[In the past, there was an archangel whose name is unknown].

[She descended to earth and sealed away a myriad of evils, one of which was Gremory, the demon of honesty and heartbreak].

[Gremory deceived people in the name of honesty].

[Her definition of justice, what she called good, was a contradiction in terms, and she deceived countless people and caused them to hurt each other].

[A good that was cruel to man, a terrible scourge].

[It was a different kind of evil, with different greed and curses, and it was eating away at humanity].

[As such, she became an emblematic outpost of the word heartbreak].

[Her goodness was manifestly twisted].

…….

It was an excerpt from the literature of the previous.

And the particular beings who seem there.

Angels.

Nobody would query the existence of angels in a sport set in a world the place demons exist. They’re at odds with one another, at all times preventing to the demise.

Some novels, video games, and different works current angels as evil and demons pretty much as good.

Most works deal with them in a stereotypical means.

Yeah.

In any case, the symbolism of an angel is goodness itself.

The satan is evil itself.

This was additionally true of the Internal Lunatic.

As a lot because it depicts evil in its worst types, it definitely depicts goodness in its presence.

Nevertheless, there was a query in Internal Lunatic.

[Zafyr is a heathen only eats pizza with pineapple, anchovies, and olives]

Whereas demons are consistently featured in the principle story, angels by no means make a single look in the principle story.

Inexplicably, at the least till Half 1, the angel’s place within the story stays within the type of an Easter egg, a fraction of historical past.

So I assumed that the story could be resolved in Half 2.

Apparently, there have been fairly a couple of individuals who thought the identical factor.

However now I have to be taught extra about angels.

I discover myself consistently trying to find literature and sources, looking for some form of file of them.

I’ve come to the conclusion that their existence is prone to maintain nice secrets and techniques of the Internal Lunatic.

Additionally,

The boy was about to ask her one thing.

Nox von Reinhafer.

She didn’t know what the scion of Home Reinhafer was attempting to ask her, or why he knew of her contract with the angel, however…….

It occurred to me that this was harmful.

Why?

“I’ll kill you.”

As a result of the Nox von Reinhafer in entrance of her was certainly attempting to kill her.

That couldn’t be proper.

Gremory was about to be resurrected.

If solely Kramsar had tried more durable, if solely he had been sooner.

She might siphon off the life drive of the fallen people, and it wouldn’t be arduous to get out of those ruins.

It shouldn’t have been arduous to interrupt freed from his archangelic bonds.

However to screw issues up like this?

‘No means!’

As a result of.

Gremory might solely swallow her delight and ask.

“My-what are you going to ask me?”

“To begin with. What was the title of the angel who fought you?”

Nox replied, as if he anticipated her to take him up on his supply. However she couldn’t assist however snort.

“Ha! You assume I’d bear in mind an angel’s title?”

“Actually?”

Stab!

(pug!)

Whilst Gremory replied, Nox’s blade dug into her shoulder just a little, and a glance of horror crossed her face.

This was a humiliation she couldn’t cover.

“What is that this……!”

“Both you reply me straight, otherwise you don’t, and notice that your life relies on it…….”

Nox smiled faintly.

“I suppose you didn’t inform me that.”

“You madman…!

Gremory felt her coronary heart pounding frantically.

To the satan, no much less. Was he anticipating a cowardly reply from an archduke like herself?

It was inconceivable, she thought, however the sword digging into her shoulder satisfied her in any other case.

I need to dwell to combat one other day.

(Please help the official launch)

“Chicken, I can inform you what she seems to be like… and the facility she used.”

“We’ll begin there.”

Fortunately, Nox mentioned, eradicating the sword from Gremory’s shoulder.

He didn’t need to take it out fully, lest he must stab it once more. Gremory hated the bastard. and caught out her tongue.

“To begin with, it wasn’t a rattling…, it was an angel with a pair of huge, white wings.”

puhwas!

“That’s about as apparent as saying the satan has horns. If you happen to’re taking part in round and shopping for time, I’ll kill you instantly.”

“…….”

Huh. Gremory sucked in a breath, then glared fiercely at Nox.

Then.

“I believe it had a wingspan of about two meters, and I don’t know… its eyes had been lavender, and I believe they had been type of jewel-like… however I suppose that’s probably not vital…… Ah! Put that jet-black factor down for a second, you’re making me really feel uneasy!”

That was it.

The demon of honesty and heartbreak.

One of many strongest of the 72 demons, the equal of an archduke.

Gremory’s confession started.

Solely then did Nox chill out his grip on his sword and start to pay attention.

In the meantime.

Elsewhere, Nox might hear the murmur of voices as they watched him, three nondescript figures who had accompanied him.

“I assumed you had been worthy of the title of Home Reinhafer. However to take care of a demon like that…? You’re solely a first-year pupil on the academy, isn’t that inconceivable? This Christopher is so embarrassed that he can’t even communicate correctly.”

“…Is that the extent of your incapability to talk?”

“Don’t inform me. I’m shaking so arduous I can barely communicate. It’s best to have seen me on this scenario earlier than, regardless that I’ve traveled the world and slayed demons earlier than…….”

“Oh, yeah…….”

Christopher and Kushan exchanged a have a look at Nox.

Elena watched Nox’s chilly stare at Gremory and gave him a small cheer.

‘I don’t know what it’s, Younger Grasp, however you should win…! We are able to’t have extra women right here!’

Regardless, Elena was cheering for Nox with a way of urgency of her personal.

She remembered the texture of Nox’s hand on her personal, and hoped that he would make fast work of the enemy in entrance of him. [Crawled from Durstysts]
