Dekan Wept as He Took Down the Big Boss
Just as the Saintess of Darkness managed to see Dekan's demonic shadow, her body began to tremble violently.
The Saintess of Darkness felt an endless fear engulf her like a dark cloud, suffocating her.
"Ah... ah..."
The Saintess of Darkness's expression gradually turned terrified, and her eyes became increasingly red.
She seemed to want to speak, but she couldn't control her vocal cords.
The little bit of energy I had managed to muster was about to vanish completely along with my hope.
In her eyes, the Magic Power emanating from Dekan seemed to materialize.
The supreme and wicked demonic Magic Power, seemingly visible to the naked eye, was at Dekan's beck and call, like a servant.
This only proves one thing.
The seemingly friendly Succubus before me is actually a living demon king.
Although he was different from the demon king she remembered.
But the one here at this moment is undoubtedly a genuine demon king.
The Saintess of Darkness quickly understood.
During the time she was sealed away, the Demon King had already been replaced.
And now, this demon king...
He's a thousand times, ten thousand times more Terror than the original Demon King!
Originally, no matter how powerful the force or how evil the aura, it would not frighten the Saintess of Darkness.
What terrified her.
It was the bizarre scene before my eyes.
The humans before them seemed to be getting along harmoniously with the Demon King as if they were partners.
It really felt like a group of close friends!
This Succubus queen's ability to control human minds has likely reached a level she cannot comprehend!
To be able to turn mind control or brainwashing into this!
No matter how real it may seem.
The Saintess of Darkness knew that it was all a lie.
All the devil's kindness is nothing but an act.
Because they feel no remorse for what they do, and cannot even understand what malice is; all their pretense is merely a means to manipulate and Hunter.
They were just humanoid creatures that looked like humans.
Believing in demons will only lead to either corruption or death.
The more harmless this Succubus king appeared, the more uneasy the Saintess of Darkness felt.
Without hesitation, the Saintess of Darkness chose to destroy herself with her remaining Magic Power!
I must never let this Succubus control my mind!
"Hey! Hey!"
Dekan frowned, seemingly sensing the Saintess of Darkness's reaction, and quickly looked at Croix.
Croix also sensed the movement of the Saintess of Darkness's Magic Power.
Although she is at the eighth rank, she has almost lost her combat ability due to years of being sealed away, leaving her with almost no health, mana, or stamina.
She needs emergency medical attention.
Croix immediately launched a magical attack on her.
"Hehe..."
The Saintess of Darkness laughed mockingly.
She felt excruciating pain.
But she can finally be free.
However.
Amidst the Saintess of Darkness's painful groans...
She found that her condition was unexpectedly improving.
"???"
The Saintess of Darkness looked at the human mage before her with a sense of existential skepticism.
It didn't take her long to figure out the situation.
Has the new Demon King found a perfect interrogator?
Is it possible to provide treatment while simultaneously inflicting torture?
This endless torment.
If she forces herself to endure it.
She may suffer unimaginable pain until the end of her life.
Suddenly, the Saintess of Darkness felt a sense of despair.
"Let me explain first, we're here to rescue you."
Seeing that the Saintess of Darkness had finally calmed down, Dekan spoke gently.
"Hehe."
The Saintess of Darkness raised her head and glared at Dekan as if he were her mortal enemy. Her fiery gaze indicated that she would continue to fight to the end.
"... Could you cooperate with us for a moment?"
Dekan naturally understood the Saintess of Darkness's reaction and frowned as he spoke.
Saintess of Darkness: "Whether you want to torture me or control my mind, come on then and see if you can get what you want!"
"No way, why can't you listen to human language?!"
Dekan had initially thought the Saintess of Darkness was a wise woman, but it turned out she was just another person impossible to communicate with!
"Etc."
However, at this time...
Clay seemed to realize the problem and patted Dekan on the shoulder, saying:
"Is it possible that the problem isn't with her, but rather that from her perspective, your problems are rather serious?"
Dekan looked at the people around him with a hint of doubt.
Cornelia was supporting the Saintess of Darkness, but with just a little force, she could break the weakened Saintess of Darkness's bones.
Meanwhile, Croix continued to heal the Saintess of Darkness.
Nearby, a human who looked ominous was watching the scene while holding a cat, seemingly calculating the remaining value of the Saintess of Darkness.
Only Clay seemed like a normal person.
Dekan: "..."
He suddenly discovered a very serious problem.
The mechanism of the Eighth Floor seems to have already determined that the Saintess of Darkness cannot easily trust him.
It seems there's no way to explain it clearly in a short time.
He frightened the Jailer Carster just as he had previously done, and now he frightened the Saintess of Darkness in the same way.
It's so realistic.
Absolutely irrefutable!
On this level, Dekan's demon king status effects are almost maxed out.
If Dekan continues to stubbornly insist that he is not a demon, it's as if he's treating the Saintess of Darkness like a fool.
It's precisely because the Saintess of Darkness isn't stupid that we can't fool her now!
"I was overthinking it..."
Dekan covered his face.
Even in her current state Saintess of Darkness would probably need to recuperate for ten to fifteen days to fully recover her eighth-tier combat power.
He still expects the Saintess of Darkness to help him?
Preventing her from committing suicide would be a success!
In the mission's setup, this guy isn't actually the boss at all.
Instead, it's a negative force that exacerbates the difficulty!
If the Saintess of Darkness were to accidentally commit suicide, the entire Shadow World would be doomed.
Dekan suddenly felt incredibly tired.
He fought his way down from the first floor all by himself, enduring so much, and was even misunderstood as a demon.
He was clearly such a kind and hardworking person.
In the past, no matter who regarded him as a demon, he would try to win them over with virtue.
But this time, he really couldn't say anything.
Since there's no hope of recovery, we might as well just make the best of a bad situation.
Dekan then handed Cornelia a vial of medicine with an extremely pained expression.
Cornelia understood immediately.
With remarkable skill, he stabbed the Saintess of Darkness in the neck.
"Thump!"
The Saintess of Darkness opened her eyes wide and collapsed to the ground, unable to move.
She felt her body completely paralyzed.
"Knock off."
Dekan shook his head helplessly and walked towards the portal to the Ninth Floor.
Cornelia carefully carried the Saintess of Darkness on her back and spoke to her patiently and softly:
"We'll protect you and take you away from the Demon Realm."
The Saintess of Darkness simply stared, speechless.
She always felt...
Rather than being taken away by these guys, wouldn't it actually be safer to stay in the Demon Realm Prison?!
