Reincarnation Monarch
Lesson 399: Change
"Well, shall we begin then?"
Gaius said as he leaned his neck a few degrees to the left and right, turning around his shoulders and doing prep gymnastics.
Then the opposing signal returned in a quiet tone with a grin on his mouth.
"Well wait. It's been awhile... na"
"Yeah? You do prep gymnastics, too?
"No, it's not"
Then Gaius said it subtly in a really mild tone.
"So you're still waiting for Menontius to arrive?
Then the face of Signus changed after striking again into something vicious.
"... well. You're right... but you can afford a lot? Don't worry about it."
"That's why I told you earlier? He said he was stronger than ever before."
"Me and Menontius. You think you can afford to win even if you're two to one?
"I guess."
"... that's a lot of licking... hey, it's Menontius, right?
Then suddenly, the desolate earth just behind the signal ripped wide open as it roared.
And it was from that great rift that Menontius, the devil, who had begotten a sheep-like curly horn out of his head, and had a mouth protruding like a wolf, and had also begotten dark, black body hair all over his body, appeared.
"Long time no see. Menontius. Still, you really feel like a demon, don't you?
Then Menontius opened his loudly protruding mouth reminiscent of the wolf.
"Come on, come on. What do you want? He's a beast."
"No, actually. I've been going through hell. Until then, I had only a vague memory. Hell, I got a lot of memories back."
"Hmm. That's..."
"Besides. Anyway, I've been to hell, so I've come to meet all sorts of demons. There are strangers like you out there. I mean, isn't that what you look like, the very typological demon that humans imagine?
"... what are you trying to say?
"I mean... that's not who you really are, is it?
Menontius then laughed out loud with his big mouth open.
And when I finished laughing, I turned to Gaius.
"... this look. I liked it inside..."
When Menontius said so, gradually the dark, black body hair covering its entire body began to burn red by the way.
The flames gradually grew larger and eventually began to wrap Menontius' entire body in a large flame column.
And in its shifting giant flame columns, Menontius' body gradually dissolved, undergoing change (metamorphosis).
