Chapter 260 – Final Match (2)

A hot wave was swirling in front of my eyes. Looking at the flames, old memories were distilled through the sparks. The things that I had left deep inside were fragrant with the nostalgic sentence ‘It was like that then’.

It was that perfume that filled the snow leopard’s vision. When he escaped from slavery and entered the snowy mountains, he was a memory of the prisoners who accepted him. The prisoner, desperate to survive, finally met a family that accepted him and became a snow leopard.

“It’s a little baby.”

“You’re wearing something weird on your feet.”

“Humans, they still make slaves out there. You shouldn’t trust humans either.”

The prisoners took the snow leopard with them while having such a conversation. There was always a cold wind blowing in the valley, but the snow leopard who met his family felt warmer then than during his slavery. Her heart, stained with hatred and betrayal of humans, was covered with affection and desire for the prisoners who accepted her.

[Even if you die, nothing will change. Even if beastmen work for humans, nothing will change. Because the misfortune of those other races. It’s just someone else’s business for humans.]

When it got to that point, even the snow leopard felt that human misfortune was someone else’s business. Even if I recall the hateful memories, I don’t want to get involved with them. I only thought about wanting to live with my family for a long time.

Don’t trust humans

Not tied up

So he lives with his family for as long as possible.

[Humans didn’t do anything to you, did they? While you live like this, humans are flirting while only filling their stomachs.]

However, the situation changed when Bara took the real power. Bara, who has a violent and dominant tendency, ordered snow leopards and other beastmen to hunt humans. Baara insisted that humans should take back the territory and property of the beastmen.

The prisoners sympathized with Bara either because they did not want to die or because they had a personal grudge against humans. The snow leopard also had a personal grudge against humans and sympathized with Bara’s beliefs.

Lilith’s voice continued to brainwash the snow leopard.

[Let’s get revenge together. It’s a natural revenge. To those who took your life so far.]

In the end, the death of humans is nothing compared to his miserable life of being enslaved and having to run away. Wouldn’t it be right to exterminate humans, even if it meant sacrificing the lives of beasts?

As the fire got closer, Lilith’s voice grew louder. Both children and the elderly were following the snow leopard toward the pit of fire.

******

“Ah… ! Aang! Alas!”

After the first ejaculation, Evan’s body did not know how to cool down. He was burning hot as if he had set fire to oil, and he was running out of control like a fuel tank had exploded. He took Petunia Titi’s hands and drove them deep into her waist, kissing her passionately and caressing her clitoris.

Even while showing off lewdness in various positions, Lilith continued to whisper in Evan’s ear.

“Yes, Evan. Show more anger Aren’t all people in the world trash? Think of the owner who abused you. Think of the slave traders who harassed you.”

Evan nodded his head. The world young Evan saw was full of hatred. People had long forgotten the words love and justice, and regarded the slave boy as a plaything that could be beaten without hesitation. It was common for people to beat people because they didn’t like their smooth faces, and there were also people who enjoyed harassing them by treating them less than humanly.

“Who separated your families? Who ruined this world? Who, who dropped you to the bottom of hell? They are all human. All humans deserve to die, did anyone ever give you love? Was there ever such a thing as a human being who gave unconditional love?”

Lilith’s voice continued to pierce Evan’s heart.

In the end, it was someone else’s business. Misfortune came to Evan because of other people’s affairs that did not reflect his intentions at all. Because Carlson could not get up to the capital, because of some bully his relative had to go up to the knight academy. Because of the nobles who were troublesome with paperwork.

Because of humans who coveted their friend’s money enough to be accused of being devil worshippers.

Unfortunately, he never handed over the control keys to Evan. There were definitely humans in all the misfortunes that plagued Evan’s heart. Evan remembered the man who framed the drunken knight for attacking a woman.

He remembered humans who turned young girls and old people into demons to rule the world.

Those in power who were plotting and harassing the village.

He remembered the thieves who were trying to extort money from the North.

They all deserved to die.

Every.

******

[Jump in. You’re jumping I will sacrifice your lives and open the door to the demon world.]

Every

Everyone had to die.

The weight of the word “Everyone” Lifted the spirit of the snow leopard.

Who the hell are they all?

If you turn your head a little, there is a young prisoner who has just started molting. He was a child who was brought because he could not be left alone while everyone was being dragged along.

The little beastman once said that he would be as good a hunter as a snow leopard.

Behind the back of the snow leopard was a woman who was just two months pregnant. She was a prisoner who used to say that when her new husband and her new husband had a child, she would prefer to live somewhere warmer than in the north.

Everyone had a story. There were reasons to live, and there were also those who had no reason to hate humans. To them, the snow leopard’s vengeance was just someone else’s business.

Someone else’s work.

In the end, all misfortune was caused by someone else’s work.

The snow leopard thought even while dizzy from the heat.

Is it right to lay down everyone’s lives for something like this?

Have you really wanted this?

Was the reason you wanted to survive until now to throw everyone’s lives into the fire pit?

Was it just for that reason that I was told to endure humiliation until now?

“Ah… Ah… !”

It wasn’t.

I had never prayed for such an insignificant and terrible reason.

The snow leopard’s belief was not for such futile revenge.

The snow leopard opened his eyes.

“Ahhh!”

I was startled for a moment by the heat in front of me, but as I stepped forward, I forcibly pressed his feet and twisted my back to turn around. The road leading up to the altar was filled with beasts, and they were walking towards the sky with blank eyes.

They were about to hit the snow leopard’s body like a slow tidal wave and fall together into a pit of fire.

“Can not be done! Can not be done!

The snow leopard slapped the beastmen in the face and shook their shoulders, but no one came to their senses.

“Calm down! You can’t die like this! We can’t die like this!”

But despite his pleas, the prisoners continued to walk away. Step by step. The snow leopard grabbed the beastman passing by and pushed him inside. Pushing in, a new beastman popped out, and another reached out for the fire pit.

Doing meaningless repetition, the snow leopard felt his body being pushed back by the group.

“Calm down! We are not here to die!”

If this continued, everyone would die. The snow leopard, pushing it forcibly, found a wide plate rolling on the floor. A brainwashed soldier had left the lid over the altar’s fire pit unscathed. The snow leopard stretched out his arm, picked up the plate, and began to push against it, blocking the fire.

“Oohhhhh!”

The muscles of his white legs caught, and the veins rose. His eyes turned bright red, and his molars began to crack. The beastmen tried to run forward, but they were blocked by the board and couldn’t move. Even as more beasts were added one by one, the snow leopard persisted and screamed.

“Hero!!”

His cry was not for prisoners. It was a shout for the warrior who might be alive in that collapsed palace.

“Was this the belief you speak of! To drive us into a pit of fire and kill us! Is that the belief you speak of? How proud I was to tell you to learn this belief!”

Steam rose from the snow leopard’s tail. The skin on his back was so hot that he felt like he was about to burn. The advance was blocked, but the snow leopard’s body continued to be pushed back.

“Look! Warrior! This is my conviction! I’m not crazy about hate! I am not forgiving you guys! I don’t want to pass my grudge on to my children! I want to live with my family!”

Cried the snow leopard.

“Surviving is my creed!”

*******

“Oohhhhh!”

Lilith turned her head with a puzzled expression. It was because the prisoners who were supposed to fall into the fire suddenly stopped. As if blocked by a huge wall, the beastmen gathered and walked in place.

“What? What happened?”

While Lilith was flustered, Evan was moving his hips.

He had become a being who released his desires like a beast and thought about what was next. What to do next? It could have been raping all the women in the capital, or it could have been skinning, like skinning people and changing their clothes.

All he had to do was destroy the world as his desire led him.

Because there are no good people in the world.

Because they all deserved to die.

“Hero!”

And Evan’s body suddenly stiffened at the cry that flew towards the palace.

“Was this the belief you speak of! To drive us into a pit of fire and kill us! Is that the belief you speak of!”

Every.

Is it really right to kill them all?

Does everyone really deserve to die?

Is it natural to kill all humans as Lilith said?

“Look! Warrior! This is my conviction! I’m not crazy about hate! I am not forgiving you guys! I don’t want to pass my grudge on to my children! I want to live with my family!”

Evan suddenly recalled a vague past. It was when she unknowingly pounced on Rumia and she was caught. Elena and Isabel approached Evan, who thought he would be tortured by Carlson.

[What is it? Hey fuck me i’m the devil uh? You just heard from the priest.]

Even so, the two silently untied the rope. Evan continued.

[If you get caught on this, you’ll 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 Evan with nervous eyes. Her face was white and her lips were biting.

[So?]

Am I not understanding the situation? Has the taste really gone? Evan explained again.

[That’s why, so, don’t let this go…]

[What if you don’t exist?]

[What?]

Evan then remembered the words Elena threw at her. Her words, the first time she treated them like family, were still in her heart.

[Do you think we would be happy without you? Really? Do you think we can live happily?]

Evan’s mouth opened. Her tears fell, but a strange laugh came out.

“…I am the devil.”

Who are you talking to? To Petunia Titi who collapsed in front of her eyes? To Milia? Elena and Isabel flatly rejected his self-help.

[You are not a devil.]

Elena in her head spoke again.

Those words that kept running through her head, somehow took concrete form and landed in Evan’s mind.

It was Lilith who gave him strength, but it was people who gave him the strength to live on.

There have always been good-natured people somewhere in the world.

There were people who wanted to make the world go right.

There were people who believed in the false articles and supported them until the end.

There were people who were trying to revive the fallen church.

There was a boy who wanted to resist injustice and make the world a better place.

Evan had no right to condemn those people.

He was loved as much as he was hated, and Evan could never be.

Evan opened his eyes and looked at Lilith.

A witch who tried to drag the world to destruction.

Evan had to stop her in this spot of hers.

She had to be defeated somehow, as she was unable to deal with her own strength.

Lilith couldn’t take her eyes off the memorial tower as if she couldn’t understand it. Evan slowly got up and pushed Petunia Titty aside. Then he got up and started walking towards Lilith.

“Hmm?”

As Lilith turned her head, Evan was holding Lilith’s hand in hers, pulling her panties back with her other hand. Lilith said to Evan with her bewildered face.

“Eh, Evan, uh, why…”

“Hey, Lilith.”

Evan’s voice penetrated Lilith’s ears. Evan smiled, waving her proudest weapon.

“Request a sex battle.”

Fu-wook!

“Hmm?!”
