The Devil Who Grants Wishes

88 – choice (2)

Irene’s unhappiness is due to my responsibility for managing the story, but I can’t ignore Serafia. The Divine Presence of the Demons is essential when constructing a spell to move the world of Divine Presence.

…Of course, Irene, whose spirit of the demons was extracted, would die as her body could not handle it.

[no! I hate it!!!]

It reminds me of the lines Irene said in the original story.

When she gains divine status, she is forcibly expelled from the underworld and left alone, so Irene, who instinctively realized the future, tried to stay in the underworld. And in the process, the surrounding environment was destroyed, causing great damage.

The hero, with the help of Gaia, forcibly subdued Irene, who was running out of control because she couldn’t control her spirit, but only two options remained.

Either leave Irine alone and drive it out of the underworld, or extract the demon’s divine power and kill Irine.

[Come on… take this out… I don’t want to be left alone anymore…]

And the warrior who heard Irene’s earnest wish gritted her teeth and had no choice but to choose the latter.

Hearing Irene’s words that she would rather die than be left alone, the hero had no choice but to take Irine’s trust and take her life.

But… without that divine prestige, Serapia would continue to target us.

Although it is clear that Serafia will be weaker than me, it is not a fight against strength, and it is aiming to continue attacking Lucia and other children while looking at gaps like that, which will cause a big accident at least once if Serafia does not die.

…Kuk.

“Do what you want, it’s your life and your future, so I, an outsider, can’t interfere.”

In the end, I have no choice but to choose Lucia over Irene.

Irene is just a game character with a completed future, but Lucia is my daughter.

Even without Gaia’s intervention… I can do better.

The problem is a certain demon that followed Irine, but what can I do with him?

“…is that so.”

After hearing my words, Irine answered silently, as if she was somewhat disappointed.

It is as if a teenager going through puberty is tickling others on the outside, but on the inside, he wanted not to.

Eh, annoying.

Should I just force it?

Why do I have to keep worrying about this?

I’d rather just stick it by my side… stick it?

Wait a minute, I think this is fine.

“…?”

Irene reacts with a puzzled reaction to my suddenly strange reaction, but that is not a very important issue for me right now.

What if… what if Irene goes with the warrior party?

What if Irine’s conquest of Katara was accompanied by a party of warriors?

If so, the intervention of other demons can be blocked at the source. I will always stick by your side, and Celestine is there too.

yes, this would be better

It will be better for Irene too.

Of course, they say that they will face a ruinous future, but until then, we have to make them as happy as possible.

“No, what I just said is a cancellation.”

“Yes?”

“Follow me. Right now.”

“No, just now I heard you do whatever you want—- hehehehe!?”

After forcibly lifting the body of Irene, who refuses, she hugs her in the arms of the princess. If I simply said it, it was useless and I would not be able to listen to it, so I had to do it like this.

Since my whole body is covered with a sharp devil’s shell, if I do this to an ordinary person, I might get hurt, but Irene, a demon, doesn’t really care.

“Please, let this go!!”

“Stay still.”

“I’m sorry…”

Of course, Irine, whose body was lifted up abruptly, struggles with her limbs and struggles to escape, but such a thing is impossible as the difference in strength is enormous.

Irene, who kept trying to get out of my arms, eventually fell limp as if she realized that this was a meaningless resistance.

…I hate to say this, but it feels like a big dog on your arm.

**********

When Faust hastily left, Lucia and Iris sit down and talk.

When Lena and Celestine see such a scene, they feel like something will happen and they don’t want to get involved, so they stay away from each other, but the future they think won’t come.

Lucia and Iris are just lamenting.

“…you know, where do we fall short?”

“Ummm…”

While traveling with Faust so far, there have been many opportunities to appeal.

We walked together and shared the same room.

But… Faust, surprisingly, did not pay any attention to them.

No, of course, they paid attention, but the attention Lucia and Iris were talking about was completely different from giving such acquaintances.

“Perhaps… isn’t it because Dad sees us as something to protect?”

“The target to protect?”

“Yeah, we just got help from Dad. He never did.”

“But isn’t that true of all other relationships between men and women?”

“Uh… is that so?”

Lucia tilted her head at Iris’ answer.

Certainly, other male-female relations are generally held by women, unless there are very unusual cases.

As such, it is a bit lacking in logical persuasion to say that they are not seen as a love object just because they are protected.

“Then what’s the matter?”

“I… uh… would we be doing this if we knew that?”

“I don’t think so…”

Silence hangs between the two.

Even though we are enemies like this, we are putting our heads together and thinking about it together in order to do something quickly, but even if there is no answer to the point that such things become colorless, there are too few.

You’d have to hurry up to figure out what Faust wanted so you could break through this situation, but if you knew that, you wouldn’t have to worry about anything like this.

“You are both very frustrated.”

“Wait, Celestine!”

In the end, Celestine, who is worse off, intrudes between the two.

Lena, who was watching it from the side, hurriedly stopped Celestine with an expression and tone as if she saw her running into the fire with a pile of straw, but it was already too late.

Lucia and Iris’ eyes on Celestine demand an explanation.

“What’s frustrating? Then what should I do?”

“Tell me quickly. If you don’t want to get hurt.”

“You’re in a hurry… I wish I could have poured that kind of urgency directly to Faust.”

Lucia and Iris’ faces contort at Celestine’s sarcastic answer, but Celestine doesn’t look frightened at all.

To her, Lucia and Iris, who are just hesitant, look cute.

“Don’t be stuffy, just do this. This.”

“What…!”

“…yes?”

Celestine makes a circle with the index finger and thumb of her left hand and inserts her right index finger into it.

Iris, who has lived a lot in society and knows what it means, blushes in surprise, while Lucia, who has never lived in society, tilts her head and does not understand the meaning of Celestine’s gesture.

“I don’t understand why you’re procrastinating so much in the first place. Iris might not know it, but Lucia, you know Faust’s character very well, don’t you?”

“What are you talking about?”

“So…just attack him. Contrary to his appearance, Faust is very soft on the inside, so if he did something like that, he wouldn’t be able to forcefully take it off and he’d be bummed out? Then… sure!”

Lucia, who was in doubt, eventually realized the meaning, and in a hurry, her face turned red in surprise and hurriedly spit out the words.

“That, that’s… First of all, the mind has to match… Dad…”

“Huh? Weren’t you and Faust like each other?”

“Yes, but… that’s…”

Lucia’s lips munched. It was hard to say anything because Celestine’s prediction was so plausible that even Lucia thought.

It’s not just Lucia.

Iris also must have thought that Celestine’s words were too persuasive. Until recently, she had only blushed and was ashamed, but not now. Staring into space with hazy eyes, he imagines the future when he does what Celestine said.

Keying!

“Wow…?!”

“Hey!?”

At that moment, Faust’s portal opens.

Lucia and Iris, who screamed like girls caught watching pornography, startled and lost their posture. Their feet get tangled here and there, or they are in danger of collapsing because they cannot control themselves properly.

The two hurriedly get upright and make an urgent excuse to Faust as if they had tripped their feet.

“Ah, ahahahaha… Dad, you’re here—”

“This is so–“

But the excuse ends just as soon as it begins.

What caught their eyes was the scene they had longed for.

The scene where a woman he had never seen before blushing in Faust’s arms made Lucia and Iris speechless.

But just because you’re speechless doesn’t mean you’re not thinking about anything.

It wasn’t long before Lucia and Iris had a single common feeling.

“Hey…?”

Irine, who was forcibly dragged into Faust’s arms, shrank from the sudden hostility, but because of that, it seemed that she was digging deeper into Faust’s arms.

It seemed that such a thing was considered a provocation for the two of them, and it made them even more angry, but unfortunately, Irine is not aware of the consequences of her actions now.
