Chapter 16 – Lumia (4)
“He’s such a terrible guy. To take over my house at the cost of being beaten by me… Really, just thinking about it gives me goosebumps.”
I have always believed in the existence of demons.
“Isabel. If this thing goes well, now let’s get ready to go up to the capital, and if I get some money this time, I’ll bribe and send a letter properly. There are ways to make a lot of money too.”
I once went to a temple. It must have been when I was 9 years old. The temple where I went to play holding hands with my family was a place where white stone pillars were lined up like candlesticks. The priests were all smiling with warm expressions, and the sound of footsteps on the marble floor made the mind calm.
In the corner of the temple was a priest who taught children about demons. It was there that my sisters and I learned how dangerous demons can be.
“Isabel. So, after dealing with that Evan this time, close your eyes and tell my friends to give it to me just once. Uh? You know what I mean Isabelle. You wanted to go up to the capital too. After I get paid and spread my legs just once, let’s go up to the capital. Forget everything that happened here. It’s good?”
Demons use sweet words and evil magic to possess and eat people. He says he brings humans down to the bottom. So, if you meet the devil, he must run away.
“Really, I’m glad the priest came. It is not so? If it was just a little bit later, I would have become the devil’s food. Okay. That’s right. Just to be sure to raise some money. How about asking Elena a favor? Uh? It’s good?”
Today. I met a priest for the first time since I was 9 years old. The priest who revealed her name as Rumia was a woman with a neat appearance and powerful divine power. She said that getting rid of demons was the right way.
“Isabel. Does it sound like shit because I’m talking nice and nice? Uh? If her husband asks. Yes, I understand. Aren’t you supposed to answer that? Uh?”
Demons use sweet words and evil magic to enthrall and prey on people. Bring people down So, if you encounter a demon, you must run away.
“Isabel!”
Here, there was the devil. The devil who came to ruin my life was waiting for me now with his mouth wide open.
“Sorry. Honey. I was thinking about something else for a while. What did you say?”
“Do I have to say it again? Uh? Therefore…”
She received from Evan the love and passion that Carlson had never given her. No matter how many times I prayed to God, nothing came back to me, but Evan loved me for turning away from his misfortune and saved me from hell.
“That sounds like a good idea. By the way, honey. The face doesn’t make sense. Because Elena and I will prepare the preparations. Have a little sleep in your bedroom.”
“Oh, is that so?”
“Yes. Sure. If you get some sleep, Elena and I will move all of her things. When I heard it, there were only light things.”
If that’s the devil, then what the hell is Carlson? What words should I use to describe this bottom person who only sees me as a tool to raise his status? What words other than the word devil should I use to describe a beast that spreads its demonic hand over my family and covers it with human skin?
“Then, I’m going to sleep, so prepare hard. Uh? Tell Elena some of my plans.”
“Yes. Honey.”
It didn’t matter if Evan was a demon. Because God never looked back at me. As soon as Carlson fell asleep, I closed the bedroom door and took out the ring. On the other side, Elena was coming out of the room.
“Elena.”
“Lady.”
Elena, with the same expression as mine, removed her ring from her hand.
******
“Fuck.”
All the assholes do is like this. It ruins things by not being cool all the time. It’s the nature of fools to punch someone who can’t win in the end, even though they know that the words of those who pretend to be heroes are all the same.
“I would just run away. You can just put that piglet’s knife on the knife and run around with it later.”
Asshole.
It was really sick. I am neither a hero nor a demon king, so how dare I attack the priest? As soon as the fuse was seen, he should have fled. What did you punch for being good at?
“What a fucking year. Fuck. If you’re a priest, you have to kill that piglet first. Why the fuck are you fucking with me for not doing anything?”
There were many reasons to give. The first reason was that I hadn’t really done anything wrong, and the second reason was that it felt unreasonable that I was the only one who was being punished for being a devil when Carlson could live with his limbs intact.
“Fucking bastard.”
And, the third reason was not being able to abandon Isabel and Elena and run away.
“Fuck, you fucking bastards.”
If I abandoned it and ran away, it seemed that it would not work.
“I want to live a little better. Whom did I hurt?”
If only I survived, I felt like I would think about it forever. I thought of Isabel and Elena’s faces every day, and it seemed that I would return to this mansion in the end. In the end, it was like he was trying to escape with the shackles on, so there was nothing to say even if the ending was like this.
He pretended to be a devil and pretended to be proud, but in the end, the way he got tangled up in people was just an idiot.
“Really, you stupid bastard.”
I didn’t want to know what was going to happen in the future. Knowing I was the devil, I couldn’t count on Isabelle or Elena to help me. After that crazy priestess memorizes the exorcism, I will turn into dust and fall into hell.
“Ahhh… !”
I twisted my body and tried to force myself out, but the ropes that tied me tightened my flesh the more I moved, causing me pain. There was a window right in front of me, but I couldn’t even crawl.
“Seed… Foot… !”
For the first time in a long time, a feeling of misery pervaded the attic floor. I should have run away, but even then I should have abandoned it. He wouldn’t help me anyway because I’m the devil. Tears came to my eyes, but I held back the tears.
If I was crying when I died, how much would that priestess complain? I thought it would be cool if I had to keep my mind together until I died and even curse. What did I do wrong Is it wrong to wriggle a little at the bottom?
“Fuck, what’s the point of killing three non-human bastards?”
I grumbled and straightened my body. Even if you keep moving, you will only lose strength, so it seemed appropriate to take a leisurely rest until the priest arrives. That way, you’ll be able to curse until right before you die. If I don’t come to my senses from now on, I feel like I’m going to cry in front of the priest.
Tak Tak Tak
I stretched out and looked up.
It was because footsteps were heard.
It was too early for the priest to come. I was told that it would take quite a while to prepare, but it had been less than an hour since I was stuck in the stomach.
I waited for a moment, then shook my head.
It must be a pig. It was clear that the pig was running after unfastening his belt, parrying the devil who had made fun of him. Elena or Isabel, she must be planning to run away by now.
I never believed in anything from the start.
I was thinking of playing with them for a bit and then throwing them away.
“Fuck… !”
It really was.
Footsteps came closer. I shook my head and lowered my forehead to the floor. I wanted to pass out like this, but my head hurt and my mind was clear. The sound of footsteps that came right in front of me faded away steeply like the sound of a musician’s drums, then slammed the attic door with my palm and faded away.
Rattle!
“Evan!”
And the door opened. Elena and Isabelle were there.
“…What?”
Before I could say anything, Elena untied my rope and Isabel watched her. I couldn’t understand the situation now. Why don’t you let go Would you be damned if you were caught doing something like this by the devil?
“What is it? Hey fuck me i’m the devil uh? You just heard from the priest.”
The two silently untied the rope. I kept saying
“If you take this, will you get fucked? Uh? If you get caught helping the devil, everyone dies. Uh? Are they all really dead? I’ve seen people lose a family while helping the devil when I’m rolling on the street. Uh?”
Elena broke into a cold sweat and stopped unwinding the rope. She was looking at me with anxious eyes. Her face was white and her lips were biting. Looking at me and making her face, she asked me.
“So?”
Am I not understanding the situation? Has the taste really gone? I explained again.
“That’s why, so, don’t let this go…”
“What if I don’t have you?”
“What?”
“Do you think we would be happy without you? Really? Do you think we can live happily without anything?”
I said. I had nothing to say except this.
“…I am the devil.”
“You are not the devil.”
Elena said firmly as she untied the rope. Isabelle looked down her room with her nervous face, and even looked out her window to check the entrance to her mansion. The pig was quiet, apparently sleeping. Elena began to untie the knots tied around her ankles. Her arms were free, but her lower body couldn’t move because of that knot.
“You are not the devil. You made the madam laugh. Why are you the devil?”
Elena pointed in the direction of the bedroom.
“The devil is over there. Uh?”
I had nothing to say. I had to say something, but the words didn’t come out. When have you ever felt this way? A very strange feeling wandered through her heart and faded away before coming out of her mouth. Said Elena.
“Let’s run away.”
Isabelle was nodding her head.
“Kill that devil bastard.”
The rope on my ankle came loose.
“Let’s run away and live by ourselves. I do housework, you farm. Madame reads a book leisurely at home. Let’s forget everything and live like that.”
Her heart raced I looked straight at Elena. Both Elena and Isabel were laughing. As I was about to nod, the moonlight cast a shadow.
“…Did I interrupt you by any chance?”
And then, a demon knocked on the window and said to me,
She had purple skin and her eyes were ruby red. Her large breasts were exposed naked in a piece of flimsy underwear, and her wavy hair gleamed silver in the moonlight.
We see her in her sudden appearance and her hardened.
The devil looked at me and said with a refreshing smile.
“Why are you looking like that? Smile. Smile. Do you think it’s good to see you smiling?”
