Chapter 1035: The Peak of a Goat's Life
Chapter 1035: The Peak of a Goat's Life
'Thank you for your hard work... Hang in there!'
After Controlling the Black Goat that was being repeatedly "serviced" by two teams of Succubi, its body constantly emitting a strange fragrance, Leon used their mental connection to continuously encourage it:
'If you want to be esteemed before the demon, you must suffer after the demon!'
'To climb a high mountain, you must start from the bottom; to act the part, you must endure hardship!'
'I don't want to! I don't want to anymore!'
After enduring a full round of lamb massages, and seeing those damned Succubi approach with needles, the Black Goat couldn't help but cry out (silently):
'I won't pretend anymore! I won't pretend anymore!'
'Look at you, how can you lack such perseverance?'
After Controlling the Black Goat to keep it from moving, Leon earnestly advised:
'As the old saying goes, a sharp sword comes from honing, and a good lamb's aroma comes from the stew pot! Whatever doesn't kill you will make you taste better! You must persevere!'
Persevere your great-grandpa! Why don't you try persevering? You... No, that's not right! The two old sayings you just mentioned, don't they seem a bit off?
Listening to Leon's increasingly twisted encouragement, the Black Goat suddenly shivered, a flash of realization hitting it, and it hurriedly questioned:
'Are you doing this on purpose? Are you retaliating for me cursing you in my heart?!'
'Eh~ You're completely wronging me~'
Leon couldn't help but chuckle at this, then immediately composed himself and explained earnestly:
'I've already said, a few curses from you mean nothing, I won't retaliate just because of a few curses... Besides, even if I were to deliberately retaliate, how could I Control whether the Lust Demon God serves food or not?'
'...'
'Besides, you've already made it through a whole week, can you really give up now?'
After mentally calculating the days, Leon sniffed the lamb aroma permeating the air and coaxed:
'The Succubus Chef said that today is your last round with the Great Sword, and then you'll be served. Just hold on a little longer!'
'I...'
'You're already here.'
'...'
Faced with this four-word spell that transcended dimensions and still worked, the Black Goat couldn't help but hesitate, recalling its journey of hardship, marinating, pounding, frying, and cooking... It finally resigned itself and allowed the Succubus Cooks to continue their work.
After the repeated sword sessions that lasted a full seven days, the Succubus Chef, with a weary expression, took out a fine needle and pricked the Black Goat's shiny, oiled buttocks. She then licked the juice on the needle tip and nodded in satisfaction.
"Perfect... Take it out! The master might be getting impatient!"
Finally... Finally, it's over!
Hearing the Succubus Chef's approval, the Black Goat, which had been repeatedly oiled and sauced for seven days, couldn't help but cry out in its heart. It was then carried by two Succubi onto a specially designed platter and taken to its destination.
'You see, it's all worth it in the end, isn't it?'
Worth your mom! Taste your mom!
No longer caring if its foul mouth would be remembered, the Black Goat, weighed down by the immense sunk cost, lay in the platter with a mind full of plans to make a run for it. It prepared to kick the damned Lust Demon God in the face the moment she lifted the lid.
The humiliation of its entire race being used as food, the hatred of being pursued while escaping from the Nest of Sinful Desires, the resentment of being ambushed by Demon Worshipers upon arriving in the present world, the shame of being forced to escape by exploding, and then becoming a plaything and soup ingredient for the Red-Haired Woman...
Damned Lust Demon God, I will reclaim everything from you today!!
With a resentment so intense it seemed almost tangible, the Black Goat gritted its teeth and lay in the platter, carried by two teams of Succubi out of the kitchen, through the long corridor dug into the roots of the Decay Tree... and past the Lust Demon God's bedroom.
'???'
'?!?!'
This... Is the Lust Demon God not at home?
When the two teams of Succubi did not follow the predetermined route to take the Black Goat to the Lust Demon God's dining table, both Leon and the Black Goat couldn't help but be taken aback.
However, before they could react, the two teams of Succubi changed their route, bypassing the Lust Demon God's underground bedroom and heading towards the massive canopy of the Decay Tree.
"Come over!"
With a gentle gaze, the Lust Demon God, seated in the canopy of the Decay Tree, saw her countless generations of descendants bringing the long-awaited dish out of the tree palace. She waved to the Succubi and pointed to the large table in the center, smiling.
"Place it here. Such a precious delicacy should not be enjoyed alone, I plan to share it with the others~"
The others... the others?!?!
Upon hearing the sultry voice of the Lust Demon God from outside the dish, the Black Goat and Leon, who had hidden inside its body, couldn't help but shudder, thinking of a rather dire possibility. And the reality... was indeed as they had feared.
"What the hell, making such a big fuss?"
Snatching the dish from the trembling Succubi, the Wrath Demon God extended his fingers, thicker than a tree that ten people could barely encircle, and lifted the lid of the dish for a glance. He then sneered disdainfully:
"I thought it would be some precious item, but it's just a... hiss... this smell..."
"Samael, your hands are really quick~"
Seeing her delicious meal preemptively unsealed by someone else, the Lust Demon God couldn't help but narrow her eyes. Then, with a sweet smile, she cooed:
"Unfortunately, my patience with you has reached its limit. So you'd better let go of today's main course, or I might not be able to resist chopping off your claws and stewing them with this Meat Goat!"
Heh, if you have the ability!
Hearing the threat from the Lust Demon God, the Wrath Demon God, whose size was comparable to a small mountain, couldn't help but sneer. He then used his nails to pinch the hind legs of the Black Goat, lifting it to put into his mouth.
"I won't let go today. I want to see what you can do... What are you doing?"
"Samael, this is the top of the Decay Tree. We are all guests, and at the very least today, you should maintain some manners."
Snatching the honey-oil-covered Black Goat and placing it back on the dish, the Greed Demon God couldn't help but sniff the exotic fragrance in the air. Then, smiling, he acted as a mediator:
"This is indeed a fine dish. Eating it now would be a waste. Why don't we wait until a new Sin Great Demon God is chosen, and then we can share it, how about that?"
'That's what I was thinking, but some people can't control themselves~'
"Heh, it's just a bite. What's so special about it!"
"Enough, both of you, shut up!"
Just as the Lust Demon God and the Wrath Demon God were bickering, the Pride Demon God, seated at the main position, opened his silver-white eyes and urged with a slightly impatient expression:
"Almost all the promising Great Demons from the entire Abyss have been brought to your tree crown. Our flesh and sins have also been prepared. Let's start the selection process quickly!"
"Heh, if someone hadn't been greedy, we would have started long ago."
Taking the opportunity to jab at the Wrath Demon God, the Lust Demon God clapped her hands lightly. The Decay Tree, formed by millions of deep pink spores, suddenly opened, spewing out a large number of Demons of various forms onto the platform created by the tree crown.
However, in the lower levels, where the other Sin Demon Gods couldn't see, over a dozen Great Demons with exceptionally strong auras were not spit out by the spores. Instead, they were eroded and melted by the sap secreted from the spores, decaying and rotting into pus, which became the nourishment for the Decay Tree.
Perfect~
Feeling the fragmented sins flowing into her body, the Lust Demon God's beautiful face couldn't help but flush with a rosy hue, and her smile grew even more radiant, making her look like a peach tree in full bloom.
All the Great Demons who had mastered five or more sins had already been "eaten" by her. Now, no one could compete with her avatar for the position. The new Sin Great Demon God, who would possess all seven sins, would definitely be claimed by her avatar!
Tsk... a bunch of misfits!
Unaware that the Lust Demon God had tampered with things behind the scenes, preparing to seize their sins, the other Sin Demon Gods frowned at the sight of the unconscious Great Demons on the tree crown, sensing their mixed and uneven auras. The Wrath Demon God even chuckled coldly.
"Heh, these trash, do they even deserve to inherit my sins?"
"Sigh... it's indeed difficult to find a Great Demon who spans seven sins..."
"Wait!"
As the Wrath Demon God and the Greed Demon God finished speaking, the Envy Demon God's snake-like eyes flickered, locking onto a female Demon in a coma behind a large firefly demon.
"Look at that one, behind the large firefly demon."
Hearing the Envy Demon God's words, the other Sin Demon Gods turned their gazes in that direction. The Lust Demon God also seemed to have just noticed her, casting a curious look.
It was a strange Demon with a tree-like lower body and an angelic upper body, with a gentle, seductive, and holy appearance. However, her aura was evil and fierce, exuding a sense of superiority, madness, greed, and malice...
Just one glance, and the several Sin Demon Gods found the corresponding sin auras on the Mischief Demon. However, strangely, they didn't show satisfaction at finding their target. Instead, they all looked in the direction of the Lust Demon God.
"That demon is one of your kin?"
"She is a Decay Branch Demon like you... but you combined with a Succubus, while she combined with an angel."
"This little one looks a lot like you. Could she be a divine child you deliberately gave birth to?"
"Damn brat! Did you arrange this outcome?"
"Hehe, I wish I could have arranged it."
Faced with the Wrath Demon God's unyielding questioning, the Lust Demon God sneered and shot back, then turned to the other Sin Demon Gods and explained in a coquettish voice:
"Gentlemen, to cultivate a descendant who can span all seven sins, it would take at least a few hundred years. Do you think I could have foreseen this situation hundreds of years ago?"
"..."
"This is truly just a coincidence!"
Seeing that none of the Sin Demon Gods responded, the Lust Demon God couldn't help but put away her smile and try to find reasons:
"Our seven races have always made up more than half of the Abyss, and they inherit our talents from their bloodlines, naturally making them more outstanding than other Demons. Our bloodline is far superior to that of ordinary Demons. Even if it wasn't this Decay Branch Demon, it would likely be a descendant of one of our races who was selected. It just happens that this child has the best talent."
"You have a point."
After the Lust Demon God finished her explanation, the Pride Demon God sitting at the head of the table stared into her eyes and spoke in a cold, indifferent tone:
"But the problem is that you proposed this idea. Whether it was to create a Sin Great Demon God on the spot or to suggest that we divide our blood and sins, all of these ideas came from you. You could even directly consume her through your bloodline.
Asmodeus, tell us, as the mastermind of this plan and the most obvious beneficiary, how can we trust you?"
"..."
Damn, just one step away!
Seeing that the other Demon Gods, though not continuing to question her, had all become cold-eyed, the Lust Demon God couldn't help but clench her teeth in frustration. Then she laughed coyly and said:
"Then how about this? Since you don't trust me, let's make the child a backup and look for other Great Demons.
Among all the Great Demons here, as long as there's one who is similar to her, or even just not too far behind her, we'll abandon her and choose another demon to succeed as the Sin Great Demon God. How does that sound?"
That sounds reasonable, but there's an important prerequisite... the other talented Demons must still be alive!
Looking at the unconscious Great Demons, and finding no second similar aura, the Pride Demon God couldn't help but frown and then looked at the Envy Demon God.
Upon receiving his gaze, the Envy Demon God blinked her hollow left eye, and a giant one-eyed snake emerged from her eye socket, staring fixedly at the Great Demons. The bodies of the unconscious Great Demons immediately reflected seven different colors:
Black, gray, purple, indigo, blue, blood red, brown, yellow, deep pink, dark red...
Murky and dim colors lit up one after another, but except for the Decay Branch Demon of the same race as the Lust Demon God, no other demon could gather more than five colors. The most talented one only had five sins, still far behind the seven-colored Decay Branch Demon.
"Asmodeus, you win..."
Realizing that the other qualified Great Demons must have already been dealt with by the Lust Demon God, the Envy Demon God couldn't help but sigh, turning her head with the one-eyed snake to look at the Lust Demon God across the table.
"Besides that Decay Branch Demon, there is no longer... hmm?"
"Huh?"
"Uh?"
"Ah?!"
"This... This is impossible!!!"
As the one-eyed snake's gaze swept over the table, the other Sin Demon Gods were astonished, and the Lust Demon God was enraged to find that the Meat Goat on the plate, which had been shaved, coated with honey oil, and was now squatting on a metal tray, was emitting seven perfectly aligned, murky dark lights!
Gray, black, dark purple, indigo, brown, deep pink, blood red... seven colors, seven sins, not a single one missing!
