Not having confidence in yourself.

Lucifer hated such beings.

From the moment Lucifer was born, he was aware that he was different from others.

I recognized that I was a very strong being in this world, and I had no doubt that I would become the devil who rules the world called hell.

Those who are not confident in themselves will eventually fall behind.

‘It reminds me of those guys.’

Other devil kings’ successors were like that.

Lucifer of destruction.

A centaur of courage.

Incubus of nightmares.

And the succubus of massacre.

There were many nicknames for the Demon King’s successors, but the only ones who actually behaved appropriately were Lucifer and Liliana.

The one called the Centaur of Vitality went into hiding after his clan was annihilated, and the one called the Incubus of Nightmare ran away after being badly defeated by Liliana.

There was only one person who satisfied Lucifer’s interest.

It was a succubus of massacre.

Only Liliana Calliope could satisfy Lucifer.

Therefore, I was quite looking forward to the conversation with Lee Ho-yeon, who Calliope is interested in.

‘It’s unfortunate, but there’s still a lot of time.’

It’s just that I don’t like his personality, but it doesn’t mean I’ve lost interest in Lee Ho-yeon.

Lee Ho-yeon, who avoids the Demon Eye and has tremendous combat power, is of high research value.

Plus, the human female body and Liliana in the dungeon.

There was a lot to do.

Lucifer raised his magic power and lifted Hoyeon Lee.

No, I tried to lift it.

“What do you know that makes you say things like that?”

“… How did it happen? My body probably hasn’t recovered yet.”

Lucifer’s eyes widened as he saw Lee Ho-yeon standing up with her legs shaking.

Lee Ho-yeon, who was visible in the magic eye, had not yet recovered.

It makes no sense to stand like that.

“Fuck. I live and live and even get life lessons from the devil.”

Lee Ho-yeon wiped away the blood that was blocking his vision and looked straight ahead.

I didn’t even know how I was standing right now.

I’ve heard it somewhere. It might be adrenaline or dopamine or something similar that comes out in extreme situations.

It hurt, but it was bearable.

“Do you know that it is the right of the strong to be offended? You are barely standing up and your mouth is still alive.”

“If you tease me, you can kill me, you bastard.”

Hoyeon Lee made eye contact with Lucifer and bit his lip.

I didn’t like the idea of talking about a topic I didn’t know anything about.

“Humans, and indeed all intelligent creatures, are simpler than you think. Just by reading their emotions and thoughts a little, we can understand a lot of information.”

“That’s terrible.”

“So does that mean I’m wrong? I can clearly see the hypocrisy in your heart.”

“Don’t talk nonsense when you don’t know anything about me.”

“Then for what purpose are the humans imprisoned?”

I was speechless.

What were you trying to do using the fake dungeon magic circle?

If you asked me, I couldn’t give you a confident answer.

“…Whew.”

Instead of answering, Lee Ho-yeon checked the magic power within his body.

It’s not perfect yet, but it’s good enough to fight.

“You’re thinking about fighting again. Your will is great, but you’re avoiding conversation.”

“….”

Annoying.

The relaxed attitude reflected in that body.

Confidence that you are not wrong.

And even to myself, who has nothing to refute.

Lee Ho-yeon did not like this situation itself.

“You are under the illusion that you are doing something great. After all, humans have strong pride compared to their power.”

Lucifer looked down at Hoyeon Lee and felt a doubt.

Ho-yeon Lee’s persistence was clearly remarkable.

Even if I fell and fell, I got up again, and no matter how much I broke my will, I got up again like a roly-poly.

Even Lucifer was surprised by his belief that he would never give up.

But what is that ugly heart that contrasts with such a noble spirit?

The hypocrisy and bad feelings seen in Lucifer’s demonic eyes.

Lucifer did not understand the gap between Lee Ho-yeon’s mind and body.

“Did you say you were carrying it? What do you mean you were carrying it?”

“Shut up. You don’t know anything.”

“Does it offend you to be called a hypocrite? But deep down, you probably know the strangeness in your actions.”

Lucifer’s magical eye speaks only the truth.

Ho-yeon Lee’s ugly heart was clearly reflected in Lucifer, and Ho-yeon Lee must have known that.

“….”

Hoyeon Lee glared at Lucifer with his mouth closed.

Lee Ho-yeon’s situation now was bleak.

The battle with Lucifer was long.

There were more than three-digit clashes, and most of the clashes ended with Lee Ho-yeon receiving damage.

My body was in shambles and my mind was devastated.

Moreover, he is unable to refute what Lucifer says.

If you lose this battle, not only Lee Ho-yeon but the world will end.

Even though there is nowhere to run, the probability of winning a fight is less than 1%.

I was completely pushed into an extreme situation.

And, after being pushed this far, I actually became calmer.

I was able to look at myself a little more objectively.

“… Yes. You are right.”

“hmm?”

“A lot was given to me. It felt like I was living in a different world. Even though I said I had a lot to carry, there were times when I felt good because I felt like I was the main character. It wasn’t my intention to mess with the spirit of my girls, but it’s not wrong to say that. . My desire was mixed with the goal of saving the world, so as you said, I am a hypocrite. Is this the end?”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about, but are you repenting before you die? There are only a few people who reflect at the last moment of their lives. You can have confidence.”

He was already fully aware of how trash he was.

Funny enough, I came to my senses after hearing the words from Lucifer, the enemy who had to be killed and the devil lord of the original.

Although it was late, I felt like I could understand the feelings of Rebecca, Scarlett, and the other women.

But, no matter what, there is something unfair about it.

“… But you know, it’s true that I’m a bad guy and that I tried to do bad things, right? Does that mean I have to take a lesson from you too?”

It is that devil bastard who kills countless lives in hell, views humans as insects in the human world, and seeks to assimilate the earth to hell.

I can’t believe I’m hearing bullshit from a guy like that, calling him a villain and a hypocrite.

No matter how much of a piece of trash I am, I don’t deserve to hear Lucifer say something like that.

Lee Ho-yeon frowned and gathered his magic power.

“Okay. I think we should stop the conversation here. Your mind has become a little clearer.”

“Don’t be a jerk and attack me.”

Excited. Excited.

Hoyeon Lee forced the battle sense within his body to awaken.

Take a slow, deep breath and absorb the mana around you.

The mana slowly filling up in the mana circuit, which had recovered quite a bit, gave vitality to the body.

“Judging by the look in its eyes, it seems like it will keep attacking you until you break its limbs.”

But I refuse to waste any more time.

At the same time that Hoyeon Lee prepared for battle, Lucifer also increased his magical power.

Participating in conversation is the end.

Crunch- Crunch-

Lucifer’s muscles and wings begin to grow larger.

The true body of Lucifer, who was mimicking a human body, is revealed to the world.

Sigh-

The magic power of hell that filled the center was sucked into Lucifer.

Goosebumps appeared on Lee Ho-yeon’s body.

Lucifer. That crazy devil still had some energy left.

Tduduk-

Lucifer’s tuxedo, which was just the right size, couldn’t handle his larger body and burst.

“As expected, a huge body is undignified. It’s more like a human than a demon. Being small has many advantages.”

“….”

Slurp- Slurp-

Lucifer’s black magic began to restore the tuxedo.

Lucifer, who was a little taller than Lee Ho-yeon, has now grown to the point where he has to look up.

Jerk. Jerk.

Every time Lucifer walked, he absorbed the magic around him.

In fact, there is no significant change in strength just because the size is slightly larger.

Lucifer was the strongest in any state.

However, this time I planned to be sincere.

“I liked it. Lee Ho-yeon. Although we are not perfect creatures from birth, humans are inherently imperfect.”

thud.

thud.

The center began to vibrate.

The magical energy flowing from Lucifer’s body filled the center and moved organically as if they were connected as one.

“But you committed the atrocity of attacking the devil’s successor, a human subject.”

Quad Deuk-

Lucifer’s arms rushed forward in an instant, snatching Hoyeon Lee’s neck and lifting her high.

“Big…!”

There was no time to react.

Ho-yeon Lee also increased his magical power, but his physical condition was not normal.

It was unable to respond at all to Lucifer’s speed when his power was fully released.

“It’s arrogance and an insult to me to try to kill me when it’s too difficult to even stand up.”

Lucifer held on to Lee Ho-yeon’s body and released his magic power.

Kwaduk-! Crack!

It’s painful.

It’s not just the neck that was caught by Lucifer.

Sharp magic power rotating from all directions cuts into Lee Ho-yeon’s body.

“You won’t be able to escape. But you can be confident. This is the first time someone has held out against me for this long.”

“Big… big, big….”

“It seems to have excellent regenerative powers, so I guess we can just put it in a state where it’s about to die.”

thud. thud. thud!

The magic power that filled the center gradually grew in size as it attacked Hoyeon Lee.

Even Lucifer could not suppress the magical storm that was created the moment his true identity was revealed.

Kwaang-!

Eventually, Lucifer’s magic that filled the center spread outside the center.

Since it was not the intention to kill Lee Ho-yeon, it was not a magical power containing killing power.

Magical power containing only Lucifer’s own authority.

“hmm?”

Lucifer felt the creatures touched by his magic.

As I was concentrating on Lee Ho-yeon in front of me, I wasn’t paying any attention to the fake dungeon, but there was someone very close by.

“This magical power….”

The magic power of Liliana Calliope.

Lucifer turned his head while holding on to Lee Ho-yeon, who was covered in blood.

The magic circle close to the center was being damaged at an incredible rate.

Sigh-

The magic circle in the center is forcibly reversed, and the door opens.

A ray of light shines in the dark center.

“Hoo….”

A smile appeared on Lucifer’s face as he checked the incoming creatures.

Liliana Calliope and the human women appeared as soon as they defeated Hoyeon Lee.

There was no shortage of interesting things, it was like a stage made just for you.

“It’s the same as before, Calliope.”

The Liliana who entered the center was completely different from the Liliana I first encountered in the human world.

A destructive magical power that cannot be considered a succubus and sends shivers down even Lucifer’s spine.

Succubus of slaughter.

The Killer Queen, Liliana Calliope, was approaching.
