Chapter 150 – The Power to Overturn 150
Seongju died with a comfortable face in the world.
It was clear that she was sure that everything would go according to their plan.
Lily didn’t like that.
“Look at these?”
To be honest, even if all the hostages died, I would feel embarrassed for a day or so.
Any other civilians in the city right now?
Whether tens of thousands or millions of people die, something to know.
However, I couldn’t forgive him for daring to scratch Lilith’s pride.
“If I had activated the ritual without saying anything, I wouldn’t have gone this far.”
In the meantime, I was dealing with the Demonic Church with the feeling of going on a world trip with my master, but now that this has happened, I want to thoroughly interfere with their plans.
It was said that no matter how much Lilith, she would not be able to do anything about the ephemeral life caused by the sacrificial ritual.
“I’ll stop that first.”
If they simply wanted victims to occur, it would have been better to directly cut the throats of citizens rather than to sacrifice themselves.
However, to have performed a cumbersome sacrificial ceremony meant that a sacrifice was needed for something.
It was something I could figure out right away without thinking too much about it.
Drank.
Perhaps it was a sacrifice for the resurrection of the Demon God.
As soon as the castle lord died, Lily reached out to the black magic circle that started to cover the city and took out a communication tool from her bosom.
“Master. From now on, please do not kill a single person until I tell you otherwise.”
To offer a sacrifice means that the magic circle is connected to somewhere that needs a sacrifice.
“The Demonic Cult, I need to be properly fucked by these worms.”
If the power of the proud demon god, rather, was extracted from this side, what would the demon cultists look like?
Lily was very curious about it.
***
Lily was pissed.
How on earth did he scratch Lily to make our good Lily, who was once angry, end up in such evil?
I don’t think I’ve ever seen Lily get really angry except when I was kidnapped.
“Everyone knows roughly what the situation is, right?”
I’ll have to listen to whatever Lily wants to do later.
It hurts my master when our good Lily keeps getting angry.
“So you don’t have to kill your enemies secretly now?”
“It’s true that you don’t have to do it secretly, but I told you not to kill it if possible, so let’s just break the limbs.”
“Do you understand!”
At my words, Mimi smiled brightly and untied her limbs noisily.
It seems that it was quite painful to defeat the enemy metallurgically.
Still, since Lily told her not to kill her enemies, she should watch it if possible Mimi?
I don’t know why she told me not to kill enemies.
But I thought there must be a reason for everything.
It wasn’t anything else, because this was the first time I’d heard of a request to deliberately leave the enemies alive.
“Arserine, like Lily said, keeps pace with controlling the sacrificial ceremony.”
“All right.”
She lightly patted Arceline on the shoulder, who answered silently with her face looking a little confident.
He’s no one else but Lily’s assistant, so it’s only natural that he’s burdened.
To my consolation, Arserine bowed her head and patted the ground with her toe for no reason.
‘But if they even need Arselin’s help, what are they trying to do?’
She wasn’t told what exactly she was trying to do, given the circumstances.
She just knows that she wants to fuck the demon religion properly.
Seeing that she even said she would borrow Arceline’s hand, she must have really wanted to give her a certain candy.
“Then let Mimi make it her first priority to secure the safety of her hostages rather than subdue her foes, and let the rest follow in behind them, leaving Mimi to break all the limbs of her excesses.”
“Yes. Master.”
“Do you understand!”
“Yes! All right.”
I nodded at the booming voice.
“Good! Then let’s go!”
***
“Oh! The ritual of sacrifice has been activated.”
The fact that the sacrificial ceremony was initiated means that the lord of the castle met her death.
Before she died, she gave the order to scrape out the insides of her opponents as much as possible and die, so by now she must have had her insides properly turned inside out.
And, thinking that it would be nice if that opponent was Lilith, Verpa laughed while shaking her body.
“I don’t understand.”
“Huh?”
“It’s hard to imagine that Lilith would be angry if a few of those humans died.”
Verfa was dumbfounded at Janghu’s confident words.
But knowing that Janghu couldn’t tell a joke, Verfa shook the whale.
“That’s why Ella fights whenever she has a chance.”
Janghu’s eyebrows twitched at the words that seemed to ignore him.
“Why is that story coming out?”
“Of course it comes out! The important thing now is not that the humans in the city were caught up in the sacrificial ceremony. The important thing is that even though the lofty Lilith-sama is stepping forward, she was killed without even trying her hand at our strategy.”
Considering the arrogant character of Lilith recorded in the history books, it might have been an unprecedented anger.
“Besides, I don’t know what wind blew my mind to save the prisoners, but I’m sure some of them will get caught up in the sacrificial ceremony, so I’m even more angry.”
I wouldn’t have guessed that Lilith would have conceived a rescue operation if she hadn’t accidentally mixed a prisoner with a slave seal into the suicide squad.
The prisoner engraved with the slave seal does not even know that he has become a slave, but thanks to the prisoner seal, he was able to devise an amazing operation like now.
“Since he’s a cheeky bitch who acts like he has everything in the world, his ego would have been properly damaged if Kobey had experienced it with his eyes open.”
He dealt with useless beastmen, offered sacrifices to the demon god, and even gave a blow to the arrogant Lilith to make a justification for starting a war against them.
This achievement was achieved by giving away one city.
Even the only member of the Demonic Church who was put into this operation was the lord of the castle. The rest was filled in by figures from the confederation of eastern tribes.
There was no such thing as a great victory.
“It’s too soon.”
Janghu also agreed that if it succeeds, it is a perfect achievement that no one can deny.
But that was the story when the operation was successful.
Janghoo didn’t think that Lilith’s party would treat him so lightly.
“What?”
“Has your field of vision narrowed because of the excitement? Look at that.”
At the place Janghu pointed at, there was a transparent crystal ball filled with nothing.
A crystal ball used as an intermediate bridge to send the souls gathered during the sacrificial ceremony to the devil.
“…What.”
By now, the ghosts absorbed in the sacrificial ritual should have been partially filled and the crystal ball should have been stained black.
However, instead of being dyed black, Verfa narrowed her brows as she saw that it was gradually turning bloody.
“Why are you like that?”
“That Lilith can destroy the sacrificial ceremony, but cannot control it. Is it true?”
“Obviously, when we sacrificed vampires in the past, it only destroyed the magic circle, but we couldn’t save them!”
Verpa was right.
But what he didn’t know was that most of the vampires who were sacrificed at that time were the only ones who took the lead in disturbing the world.
In the first place, the vampire race was nothing more than a toy that Lilith created because she was lonely living alone.
“It’s not that I couldn’t find it, it seems that I didn’t.”
“Nonsense. It was a complete checkmate.”
A crack appeared on Verfa’s face, which had been overflowing with confidence until just a moment ago.
The perfect checkmate was evident.
No matter how much it was, I was confident that there would be nothing special this time, but now that I’m here, it’s like this.
“What would you do if you made a checkmate? The opponent has power beyond the standard that can overturn the board itself.”
Leaving Verpa with a bewildered face behind, Janghu took out his own axe.
The bloody aura that had been filling the crystal ball since earlier was unusual.
It felt like something was about to happen.
And Janghu’s predictions were not wrong.
“Verfa! Break the ceremony immediately!”
The crystal ball, which had been filled with bloody energy, suddenly began to fill with black mist.
It was not a demon made up of the spirits of freshly caught humans.
It was definitely the same kind of magic that they had in mind.
A refined demonic horse dedicated to the demon.
“…Damn it!”
Belatedly aware of this fact, Verpa tried to sever the link between the crystal ball and the sacrificial ritual, but it was already out of Verpa’s control.
“… Back away.”
If this happened, the crystal ball itself had no choice but to be destroyed.
It was clear that it would be a painful loss because the witches were gone and they couldn’t make any more money, but they couldn’t just be deprived of the demonic energy they had collected and refined over hundreds of years.
“Haaaaap!”
The ax struck the crystal ball, causing a blast.
When the crystal ball concentrated enough power to tear a city apart in one blow, the crystal ball could not withstand the force and shattered powerlessly.
When the crystal ball shattered, the magic energy stored in the argon no longer leaked out.
“…That’s it!”
The leak has been averted, but the situation is not over yet.
The bloody energy contained inside began to gather in the air and then began to form something.
The bloody aura that slowly took on a human form soon completely changed into Lily’s form.
Seeing Lily suddenly appearing, Zhang Hu and Verfa immediately prepared for battle, but Lily appeared here as her thought body, not her true body.
“Hello, cheeky worms? I’m not in a good mood, so I won’t say much.”
The thought body in the form of Lily looked at Janghu and Verpa alternately, then held out her hand toward Verpa.
“Just looking at it, it seems like you’re the one with this crappy plan. If I catch you, I know you won’t die for the rest of your life.”
Verfa’s complexion turned pale due to the viscous life flowing from the thought body.
