The Great Devil (Satan).

The source of all evil who tempted Adam and Eve to eat the forbidden apple in the Garden of Eden. The Holy Church in the western part of the continent evaluates Satan as the greatest devil, or the original evil.

Some say that Satan is a demon god, the creator of demons. Of course, the two are completely different entities.

Satan is one of the seven great devils. Arrogance, sloth, lust, jealousy, greed, gluttony, etc… Among the seven emotions that are the essence of evil, Satan is the devil who represents anger.

However, Satan should not be viewed along the same lines as the other seven devils. He is the first of all demons. Just as among angels there are archangels, Michael-Gabriel-Raphael, Satan is a being that stands above other devils and is the pinnacle of power comparable to Michael-Gabriel-Raphael.

The only person who can stand shoulder to shoulder with him is the devil of sloth. However, the devil of sloth is so lazy that he does not go out into the world. Therefore, the one who could be called the pinnacle of the devils of the present world was Satan.

“Huhuhu.”

Satan’s ominous laughter spread through the cold night air.

“Why are you smiling?”

“Just because I’m looking forward to it. As you said, isn’t this a rare edition?”

“I see.”

“Besides… It’s surprising that among your descendants, two such strong people were born in this generation alone.”

Lucifer’s wings fluttered in the middle of the night sky. As if defying the laws of physics, no matter how his black wings flapped up and down, there was no wave in the air.

“Two?”

“Why are you like this? No matter how much I am having fun, I have ears to listen. It means that there is no use in pretending not to notice.”

“No, you mean two? Who else can compare to the demons who have entered this academy now?”

Lucifer asked, looking genuinely puzzled. Satan responded with a calm face.

“Adella Lucifer, the head of your Lucifer family. That Oscar is the student’s older sister.”

“… Ah, I’ve been focusing on that Oscar guy so much lately that I forgot about him. Yes, Adella, that guy was there too.”

“I heard that you have already surpassed your father’s level a long time ago. Is that correct?”

“Father? Kick, the current head of the family is nothing special. There are more than one guy stronger than him. Besides, he’s about to go to the goal, right? Last time I saw it, it looked like it was about to collapse.”

“That’s too much. Anyway, aren’t they your descendants?”

“Descendants? If we have to treat them as descendants even though they have passed tens of thousands of generations, aren’t all the people who are attacking me on the continent now aiming violence at their own blood relatives?”

“Hehe, that’s right. That’s why humans are attractive. The most brilliant yet foolish of all species is just like looking at cute little demons, isn’t it?”

Satan chuckled darkly. Lucifer seemed appalled by that sight and pointed at the academy dormitory with a disgusted expression.

“Why is someone like that a teacher at this academy? Only grown humans play with it.”

“You’re curious. How do children who were both pure good and pure evil grow up to become smart and dull adults? Well, this Eden Academy where I was appointed only accepts students over the age of 18, so their heads were all big enough.”

“If other people hear it, they’ll scoff and ask if you’re crazy.”

Lucifer’s finger was withdrawn. I don’t understand, but the answer is the answer. Now it was time to politely accept Satan’s questions.

“Still… Father is a no-brainer, but Adella Lucifer is a great guy. Should we say that if there is a Heavenly Hero on the continent, there is Adela in the Demon World? Oscar It’s because that guy showed such an outrageous performance. Adela’s talent was also at a bizarre level.”

“How old were you this year? Adella.”

“Approximately 1500 years old? For more details, you can look at the history of the elves. Because the incident in which Adella went to the elf village during her childhood and made a fuss remains a humiliating history for them that they must never forget.”

“1500 years old… Even though each demon has its own growth limit, there has never been a demon that continues to grow even after reaching 1,500 years of age.”

“I know, but I was just distracted by a demon named Oscar.”

“Hmm, I heard about his activities from you… I’m a little surprised that you rate it so highly. It’s great, but I don’t know if you’ll completely forget about the monster called Adella.”

“… .”

Satan’s eyebrows drooped. Gurgling, the thin liquor in the whiskey gurgled down his throat.

“If you’re that curious, why don’t you test it yourself? That’s good, you also have the title of teacher.”

“… Let’s give it a try, shall we? Even I am a little afraid of dealing with Dean Merlin… Well, I guess I won’t be able to make a good board if it doesn’t show up.”

“Kick, when the game is over, please call me too. There is nothing more sad for someone who lives a boring life than missing out on something good to see.”

Imagination and creativity began to well up in the mind of the devil who had forgotten his duty of anger. Lucifer, who was watching the scene from the side, got goosebumps.

‘What is this crazy devil doing…’ .’

Then, I soon remembered something and changed my mind.

‘no… If we want to check chaos, we need to use something crazy like this. That’s why you told Satan about Oscar from the beginning.’

As the conversation deepened, dawn came. Satan said, gently pointing at the sky that was turning ultramarine blue.

“Yes, I will call you. But aren’t you going? If you remain in this academy after daylight, you may encounter a monster old man called the Great Sage.”

“Going, a. So don’t fuss.”

Lucifer turns his back. When Satan waved his hand to see off the person behind him as he disappeared beyond the dimension, Lucifer paused for a moment, as if he suddenly remembered something he had forgotten.

“That’s right. Satan.”

“Why?”

“Do you know anything about ‘Chaos’?”

“Chaos? Why are you suddenly talking about that?”

“Something came up that I needed to figure out. It’s strange, it’s said to be the thing most closely related to the creation of heaven and earth, but everything related to it is actually kept in ‘strict secrecy’. After living for millions of years, I started to get tired of living. Let’s find out before we die.”

Lucifer hid nothing and spoke only his truth.

“Hmm… Sorry, I can’t tell you about Chaos. Oh, of course, I don’t plan on killing you because I don’t like you or because I lust for something presumptuous. I think curiosity is the most beautiful desire regardless of race.”

“You know, but why can’t you tell me?”

“It’s the same as how you can’t teach sentences to a child who doesn’t know how to read. Those who do not know the truth are not qualified to know about ‘Chaos’. That’s why I can’t speak.”

Satan cut off the conversation resolutely. It was time for Lucifer to turn around again in resignation.

“But.”

“Hmm?”

“There is one person who records and manages all the secrets in the world. Go see him. Oh, don’t forget to bring a bribe to get the secret.”

“Ah… ?”

“Secret Angel Raziel. I don’t have the authority, so I keep my mouth shut… If Raziel has the authority to ‘manage’, he might be able to use some ‘expedient method’, right?”

The eyes, as thin as a thread, smiled. At the same time, the arrogant devil’s destination was set.

*****

As I chatted with Maria at night, time passed quickly. As I was exposed to the dawning sunlight rising from afar, I spoke vaguely to Maria.

No, would it be correct to say that I whispered? Now Maria is sitting on my lap.

“Doing this makes me feel like I’m reading a book to a baby.”

“Can I take this to mean that I am as cute as a baby?”

“It’s a baby, right? Compared to me. My age is over 500 years old.”

“My current ‘mental age’ is also over 500 years old.”

“Saint, if you add my age in my previous life, I am over 1,000 years old. When the saint’s ancestors’ ancestors’ ancestors’ ancestors were drinking powdered milk, I was educating Aru in Masurim.”

Maria seemed to find my pun amusing and smiled. A smile that is so deep and profound that it is hard to read, but is also pure. It’s only for Mary.

Sigh-.

“But I think it’s time to come out now. The sun is rising. It means our time is coming to an end.”

He supported Maria’s buttocks and lifted her up. Even though she was not as skinny as she was in Tartarus, Maria was as light as down and was easily lifted.

Maria, who understood what I said, looked disappointed.

“Dawn has already broken. My time with you was so precious that I didn’t even notice it.”

“Right now, there is only enough light coming in through the windows, but soon the doors will open and students and librarians will come in. I have to go back to the dormitory before then. If you don’t want to be picked on by the student dean during roll call on the morning of the second day.”

“That’s not something you should do even if you think about ‘me during the day’. However, I still feel sad about breaking up with Joker.”

“Don’t worry. Because I will come again tomorrow. Would you like to change locations starting tomorrow? Should we take a walk around the city streets at night?”

“… For now, please meet at the library. There are still many conversations to be had.”

When I spoke reassuringly to Maria, who was worried, she smiled with greater ease. It is soon time for the academy students to wake up. I trudged to the library window. Perhaps because it was the same route, Maria followed me.

I put one foot on the window frame to get over the window. Maria grabbed my collar with a careful hand.

“I… Joker, before we part ways, there is something I want to tell you.”

“What is that?”

“Me during the day… So, it’s related to the younger me.”

“So what is it? Please tell me quickly. I have to go.”

Maria’s cheeks were blushing as if she was somehow embarrassed. The gaze was slightly lowered.

“When I was young, I was… You may know this because you have already experienced it, but I have a slightly arrogant personality. In fact, rather than being arrogant, I think there is a part of him that is intoxicated by his own authority and fame. I don’t think that people in the world should unconditionally support me, but I thought it was natural to some extent to be supported.”

“I know. When I told her that I had never heard of the name Maria, she was quite embarrassed and disappointed. Of course I understand. From a young age, everything in the world supports her, but if she grows up humble, she is a psychopath.”

“I’m embarrassed. Anyway, I’m glad you know. I was worried that my younger self might be causing trouble to Joker because of that.”

“How about causing some trouble? Even though we are human, we can make mistakes. And the saint was the person who embraced me at that time. I will also cover and embrace the young saint’s mistakes. There’s nothing more fun than that, right?”

“… !”

A ripple spread across the saint’s face. What should I say? With an expression full of emotion, the saintess touched her neat lips.

“True… There’s still a long way to go, though.”

“Huh?”

“Once again, I feel like I did a pretty good job of educating myself. Isn’t that right? To hear the word tolerance come out of the mouth of a person who was called Daeyangjeiak (大陸第二惡)… .”

“Kkkk, do you know that now?”

No one believes it, but I have been rehabilitated a lot.

Is it real?
