Chapter Index

    *

    I picked up the Priest Robe that was sprawled on the floor and threw it on, then plopped down on the bed.

    On the floor in front of the bed, Kunat, whose entire body had been burned by the maximum Holy Power I could muster, was slowly recovering.

    Even with jet-black ash stuck all over her body, she seemed to find it amusing, giggling and slowly healing her burned flesh.

    However, I too had unleashed the maximum Holy Power I was capable of.

    I could easily guess that behind Kunat’s smiling lips, she was gritting her teeth to endure the pain.

    “Ha… so, what the hell was that just now?”

    “Heehee.”

    “What were you thinking…? Ha, goddamn it…”

    Just thinking about it sent a disgusting shiver down my spine, like bugs crawling all over me.

    It’s already abnormal for a Priest to be swayed by Sexual desire, let alone lusting after a Devil without recognizing her.

    I’m just glad that it wasn’t sexual desire directed at the Devil, and that it only went so far.

    If I had really harbored Sexual desire for Kunat, or even worse, mistaken her for Anna in my arms and done something even more terrible…

    “Ugh, damn it.”

    I probably would have taken my own life out of shame and guilt.

    I slowly ran my hands over my deeply furrowed face.

    “That kind of reaction is so hurtful, I’m a woman too, you know.”

    “What woman is in Devil.”

    “Yeah, yeah… a female-type Devil, do you really have to be so blunt?”

    Kunat twisted her slowly recovered body as if testing it.

    The bright red Devil skin was still glowing red, as if the heat from the Holy Power was still lingering.

    Kunat continued, peeling off the burns stuck to her skin as if picking up wet fallen leaves.

    “Isn’t that word itself very strange from the start? If it’s female, it’s female, and if it’s male, it’s male. A female-type Devil, really,”

    Clearly, the Holy Power I poured into Kunat’s body was of tremendous concentration and quantity.

    At that time, I was still half asleep and out of my mind, and because of the situation where I was about to commit an unspeakable obscenity with a Devil, I unknowingly unleashed it stronger than necessary.

    Perhaps, this was the first time I had unleashed Holy Power so unrestrainedly since that day when the Devil attacked the Monastery last time.

    If it had been ordinary Devils, their bodies would have all turned to ashes and they would have been forcibly returned to Hell immediately.

    No matter how high-ranking Kunat was, the Holy Power wouldn’t have been something she could handle with ease.

    But to be chatting about such trivial matters while recovering her body.

    More than the power or wisdom of the Devil Kunat, her bizarre mental state was even more bizarre.

    “Humans make words unnecessarily difficult. Isn’t that why they’re always being taken advantage of by Devils in Contract scams?”

    “That’s to emphasize that you Devils and we humans are completely different beings.”

    “Hmm?”

    “I heard there are crazy bastards who fuck beasts in this world, so there must be crazy bastards who try to fuck Devils too. It’s to prevent that kind of thing as much as possible.”

    “Ah, like you?”

    For the first time in a long time, I activated the needle I had stuck in Kunat’s head.

    Kunat grabbed her head and rolled on the floor.

    “You’re asking for it. You’re asking for it.”

    “No, aaaaah, I didn’t say anything wrong! You directly put that big thing in my aaass!”

    “Shut up.”

    “Ugh, kugh… Hwaaaaang!”

    “Don’t moan.”

    The needle spun around in her head, emitting Holy Power.

    Kunat arched her head back and thrust her hips forward, twisting her entire body in pain.

    “Kuaaaak, th, and how do you know there aren’t more than a few, ugh, who fuck Devils, or get fucked by them…? Ugh?”

    “Didn’t I tell you to shut up?”

    I know too.

    Sexual contact between Devils and humans isn’t that uncommon.

    From the beginning, what else would be the reason why the existence of the Succubus branched out as a type of Devil?

    Among the evil people who tried to get their hands on the power of Devils, there were many who coveted wealth or power, but there were also many who desired simple pleasure rather than such secular values.

    No matter how much money or power they had, there were always people in every era who desired pure pleasure that made their brains burn, the ultimate pleasure that human knowledge and experience could never match.

    In fact, those who tried to gain wealth and power by borrowing the power of Devils were more often weak people who had been starved or unfairly treated for a long time, rather than powerful people who desired greater power.

    And those who called upon Devils in pursuit of pleasure existed in a certain proportion in all classes, regardless of wealth or power.

    “Damn it,”

    Right now, wasn’t the reason I ended up laying hands on the nuns because of pleasure?

    Perhaps that’s why I felt even more disgusted by Kunat’s actions.

    It was like my weakness was being exposed as it was.

    “Huuu… kukh… today… it’s a bit longer than usual… Uaaaaak! You must be… really angry?”

    “Yeah.”

    “I’ll apologize. Sogueaaaaaak!”

    “… Ha, I’m tired of this. Really.”

    Kunat thumped her forehead on the floor and stopped, twitching.

    It was as if she had bowed her head at my feet.

    I slowly stopped the needle and sighed.

    Kunat breathed heavily and spoke slowly in a voice mixed with sobs.

    “Today… you’re really serious, I’m sorry.”

    “…”

    “But still, please understand, hiding in the darkness and just watching your tremendous Sexual Intercourse makes my body itch, I can’t help it.”

    “No, who told you to peep? You have your own room! Right next to it!”

    “You know I’m watching you anyway, don’t you?”

    “I know, you bastard!

    I just leave it alone because there’s no way to stop it, what, do you think I like showing you my personal life? You’re the one who doesn’t stop watching, you goddamn son of a bitch!”

    “…”

    At that moment, I could feel the air in the room suddenly turning cold.

    The atmosphere became heavy.

    The concept of ‘atmosphere,’ which has no substance, felt as if it actually had weight, and I felt as if the weight filled the room.

    The surrounding noise also disappeared in an instant.

    I looked at Kunat at the sudden anomaly.

    Kunat was still bowing her head on the floor.

    However, at this moment, I could guess that Kunat had done something.

    Or something about her had changed.

    Over Kunat’s curved back, bent over on the floor, her tail wagged above her plump hips that rose into the air.

    “But, Billy. I can’t understand.”

    “Wh… what!”

    “If you were to pounce on me, I would never reject you.”

    “What the hell are you talking about…”

    As if trying to cut off my words, a large wing suddenly appeared and slowly rose behind Kunat’s back.

    The wing bent as if breaking in the air, then slowly touched the floor.

    Then, pushing off the floor, it lifted Kunat’s body up.

    Gradually, her skin, which had revealed itself in front of my eyes, had already returned to its clean state.

    Soon, she slowly straightened up, resolving the expression of pain caused by the headache.

    “I don’t know why you reject me so much.”

    “Did the needle hit your head wrong? What’s wrong with you?”

    “Is it… because I’m a Devil?”

    “You have to ask?”

    Kunat sighed and continued.

    “Yes, as you said, I’m a Devil. I have committed sins against humanity as you think, and I’m not exactly acting for the sake of humanity now. And I will never serve humanity forever.”

    Kunat looked down at me sitting on the bed with a gaze that was strangely mixed with a bit of anger and annoyance, and an unknown heat.

    For some reason, I couldn’t move and could only look up at Kunat’s face looking down at me.

    I was curious about what she was going to say, and as she said, I was definitely at fault for the incident a moment ago, so I couldn’t just be confident.

    Kunat continued to look down at me and said.

    “As you already know, my goal is only my own benefit. That’s why I have a torture needle in my head and still obediently stick to you without any complaints.”

    I had already talked about Kunat’s plans.

    She was convinced that this ruined world would eventually fall into the hands of the Devils.

    A plan to gain an advantage by putting me, the most outstanding Exorcist Priest, at the forefront in this world that Devils will soon occupy.

    That was the reason why Kunat was sticking to me.

    “I, you see, Billy. I expected you to leave the Island and travel the world with the nuns. While defeating Devils and Monsters.”

    “… Ha,”

    “But, you’re settling down in this backwater and not moving.”

    “…”

    “Needless to say, it must be because of me, Billy?”

    “… Yeah.”

    Kunat is right.

    The reason I reduced exploration and focused on building the Village was because we, who lost the Monastery and the Island, needed a new home, but it was also because of Kunat’s existence.

    If I actively traveled around this ruined world, I would inevitably meet other humans who had given their bodies to Devils to survive the Monsters.

    To be honest, I wasn’t sure if it was a good thing to get rid of those humans or those Devils at this point.

    What does it mean to proceed with Devil extermination at this point?

    This is something that makes it easier for the Monsters, who have already killed most of humanity, to be active, and in the long run, it is also helping Kunat’s plan with my own hands.

    It’s not that it’s better to let other Devils become the masters of the world, but the resistance to being used by a Devil makes me hesitate.

    In fact, there was no right answer no matter what I chose.

    Humanity was practically already finished, and my noble duty was revised to protecting the nuns in the afterlife and fighting Devils forever, not protecting the world.

    Letting other Devils take over the world, letting Kunat take over the world, or letting Monsters become the new rulers of this world, none of them were proper answers for me.

    The vague and ambiguous attitude of creating a refuge for humanity was the reason why this Village was created.

    “I know it well, the thought of being used by you makes me feel so unpleasant that I can’t stand it.”

    I forced a smile at Kunat and said mockingly.

    Kunat frowned and answered with a strange expression that was hard to tell whether she was smiling or angry.

    “Very cool, very arrogant, very annoying.”

    “… Ha, don’t you like it? Because I don’t move as you think I should?”

    “…”

    Kunat suddenly bent down.

    In an instant, her face came close to mine.

    Almost so close that the tips of our noses touched.

    “What do you think?”

    Kunat opened her eyes strangely wide and stared straight at me with a chilling smile.

    Her large Devil eyes were so unnaturally large and round that none of them touched the surrounding eyelids, making them frighteningly bizarre.

    Kunat looked at me with those eyes, and began to mutter in a very low, ominous voice from a distance so close that our noses were about to collide.

    “You are the archenemy of my kin, and a presumptuous Cleric who tries to ruin my plans, punches me when you’re bored, puts horrible needles in my head and tortures me, and always does the opposite of what I want.”

    “…”

    “Do you think I… like you?”

    Suddenly, I felt the back of my throat shrink from fear and chills.

    I felt like a scream was welling up from deep inside my stomach.

    This was a familiar sensation to me.

    A sensation I had felt countless times when I was actively working as an Exorcist Priest.

    That sensation that can be felt when a very fearful and evil being emits part of its presence as a warning.

    It was a feeling that I had become familiar with enough to ignore it like breathing, but feeling this sensation after a long time, I felt a chill down my spine.

    To hide my agitation, I forced the corners of my lips up and answered calmly.

    “Ha, no way. Kunat, you won’t like me very much. I know. I know very well.”

    “What if you’re wrong?”

    “… What?”

    Kunat slowly wrapped her arms around my neck.

    “What if I actually like you very much? No, what if I like you so much that it goes beyond that?”

    “… What?”

    “What if I want to live in this fishy Village until you die because I like you so much that I don’t care what happens to the rule of this world?”

    “What… are you talking about.”

    Those strangely large eyes slowly began to curve upward.

    “Are you saying that I’m even in love with you?”

    “Why are you asking me that!”

    “Then, what would you define this feeling of mine as?”

    “…”

    It’s scary.

    Of course, there’s no way that this is true.

    But I had no idea what this crazy Devil was thinking.

    I couldn’t even understand it, so I was so scared.

    “Billy… you don’t want to move according to my intentions? Hehehe, that’s the limit of humans who can only see what’s in front of them. Usually it’s pathetic… Hmm, you even look cute, what would I call this if not love.”

    “Shut up.”

    “You can’t help but move according to my intentions no matter what you do. It’s fine if you go out and help my plans, and I’m so happy even if you stay cooped up here for the rest of your life.”

    “…”

    “Because, I really like these days with you.”

    Kunat’s face came closer.

    Our noses had already touched a long time ago, and now even our lips were gradually about to brush.

    I have to push her away, I have to unleash Holy Power, I have to show her who’s boss,

    I was so flustered by the outrageous story that I couldn’t move at all and allowed Kunat’s approach.

    Kunat slowly opened her mouth again in a slow, languid voice.

    “I’ll ask again, Billy.”

    “…”

    “I don’t know why you reject me so much.”

    “…”

    When I didn’t answer, Kunat predicted my answer and continued.

    “Is it because Priests can’t sleep with Devils?”

    “… You have to ask…”

    “Are you allowed to sleep with Nuns?”

    “…”

    I had nothing to say.

    Pleasure.

    The temptation that swallowed me up.

    And the Devil who was trying to wrap me in temptation and swallow me in one bite was looking down at me with her eyes curved as she wrapped her arms around my neck. .
