Chapter 994: Behind the Contract
"You, no way..."
"Just attack the ice attribute, that's how you deal with it, isn't it? Mephistophales"
There was cold air in Herrell's sword. Mephistophales, who was rolling in pain, magic himself to recover, as he remembered, and rises up feeling sophisticated.
"... I see you spent too much time as a buddy to find out"
"When we first met, I thought wind magic was a weakness."
"You know why my weakness is ice, no, freeze it?
"It would simply be a compatibility issue"
"Well, if you don't recognize science, you won't know."
Mephistophales begins to get a spare look again. As if there is no particular major problem because the weaknesses have been identified. Herrell guessed.
"Ever since we met, you've been the one with no reading in your belly about what you're thinking."
"Yeah, they say that a lot"
"Do you still... have something? Is that a mandatory contract?
Mephistophales slowly shook his head and hoisted the corner of his mouth. Herrell noticed the smoke drifting at his feet stretching from the entrance to this room to another location.
"What the hell are you doing?"
"Speaking of which, I don't know how, but it was brilliant, wasn't it, to bring out the corpse under our control and succeed in resurrecting Lord Elle?"
"Is that...?
"How much brains are missing and simple, even you who betrayed humans just to bring the princess back to life...... can't you see how much it means to bring this story up in this situation? Where do you think my smoke is headed?
Herrell the Brave blued. He then wrapped the magic of the slaughter of ice around him so freezing that he stuck it against Mephistophales. But Mephistophales calmly takes it with a sickle and punches Herrell in the face with a fist-shaped chunk made of smoke.
"Grr......!
"Always calm is the basics in battle. It is a word you yourself have unleashed against your subordinate demons in the past. But well... it's really inconvenient to have something to protect nearby. Because I try to protect the kings."
"Ha... ha... not like you... because...! I've already decided as a brave man to defend what matters to me on my own!
"There's something I want to protect, even in exchange for my life. It's not in anasm..."
Mephistophales creates massive chunks of smoke and flies them one after the other against Herrell. Herrell approaches Mephistophales as he slashes it down at high speeds one by one. The eyes were killer.
"Ooh, frightening"
"Fuck you. The Ice Emperor's Kenji! The sword god, Shinji, suddenly!
"Gu...... oh!
I tried to prevent Herrell's attack with a sickle, but the sickle itself is destroyed and a sword pierces the belly of Mephistophales deeply. wound and bled out a lot of blood from the mouth.
"That's it."
"... my... I took the trouble to get within reach... thank you very much..."
"Compulsory contract? But it's in your hands. It's a prospect. It's like pretending to be hit and trying to use your best moves."
From the stabbed area Mephistophales freezes to spread.
"Oh... oh... did you have these skills?
"I made it, imagine with reference to your love sickle. I worked as a great demon."
Smoke was growing shaped like an arm from his back, and it was gripping a piece of paper. But before it reaches Herrell's forehead, Mephistophales freezes almost his entire body. All I had left was time to say something.
"I'll listen to you in your resignation."
"... nothing... don't be alarmed..."
"Is that advice for me?
"Yep... yeah"
Everything froze on my face, too. A strange ice statue can be created that receives a fluffy sensation even though it is in the shape of a person.
"... I don't think I can hear you anymore, but I've been preparing for when something like fighting you ever happened since I was serving the Evil Demon God. Because when El came back to life, both the devils were going to betray him."
"Oh, oh!... you knocked him out...!
Exclamation leaks from the kings. Herrell looked a little lit but quickly hacked and put his hand on the door of the room.
"Excuse me, I need to see Elle once before I go help Fafnir......!
"Ah... Ah, look, Herrell..."
Herrell, who received forgiveness from the king, traced the line of frozen smoke to Elle. It was smoke. The ice was interrupted in front of the room where she was.
"Elle, it's okay......?
"Heh... Herrell... and the enemy..."
"My body will be lazy, I haven't been able to defeat two vicious enemies yet. One of the three has just been defeated."
"Oh yeah......! Good......!?
Elle looked behind Herrell and was stunned.
Herrell sweats disgustingly at the well known magic he feels from behind him. Slowly, I turned around slowly.
"Well, I can split up."
……
"Yes, good luck. It's a mandatory contract.
Mephistophales puts a contract on Herrell's forehead, turning around, and begins to write down the contract details there.
"Um, what I'm asking you to do is be our puppet...... we have to be able to soil this right to someone else later. And the price will be terrible for Mr. Gail when he is one of us... specifically, he will continue to suffer such debilitating magic effects that he won't be able to breathe... okay?"
"Herrell...... hey, Herrell......!
Princess Elle reaches out and tries to grab Herrell, but it was clearly not a distance to reach. Herrell's eyes become empty and eventually close off. Mephistophales carefully grabbed Herrell's body, which collapsed like it had lost its strength, and laughed at Princess Elle.
"Oops, is it time for Mr. Gail to work the other way around and significantly strengthen his contract? You must have settled with that dragon too. Rest assured, Princess El. He won't do anything terrible to himself, and he won't do anything to you now. … then."
"Ma... Ma...!
Mephistophales left the room where Princess El was.
