Chapter 1040: False Might
Chapter 1040: False Might
The Sin Demon Gods walked with a calm demeanor.
After following Leon into the Nest of Sinful Desires and enduring a devastating attack of Planar magnitude, the three Sin Demon Gods were left with only one and a half lives.
By the time Leon returned to the lair of the Lust Demon God, beating the Envy Demon God to near death, and then controlling her and the Wrath Demon God to return, the three Sin Demon Gods—Pride, Greed, and Lust—had lost all will to struggle.
So, what about the plan to let us put on a show?
Seeing the five Sin Demon Gods sitting back at the table, their faces as if they had lost their entire lineage, Black Goat, who had just regained control of his body, couldn't help but click his tongue, feeling a little like crying.
Originally, by cooperating with Leon's plan and offering his beautiful body as bait, he could have temporarily borrowed the power of the Devouring God, allowing him to tear apart the Demon Gods and finally get his revenge on the one who had always seen him as nothing more than food.
However, the damn Lust Demon God was so generous, offering his beautiful body to the other Sin Demon Gods, which led to a massive brawl. This forced the... noble Devouring God to step in and take over.
Although the Devouring God still had some conscience and, in gratitude for the suffering he had endured, didn't reveal his true form. Instead, he used Black Goat's face to defeat the five Demon Gods, allowing "Meat Goat" to stand atop the Abyss, giving him a moment of glory.
But the anticipated peak of his life, where he would personally strut around, dominating and avenging himself, was forcefully turned into a mere spectator. The contrast was just...
The contrast was just too great!
Looking at Black Goat, who now sat in the Pride Demon God's original seat, occasionally glancing over with a look of unwillingness, the Lust Demon God couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine, as if his own power and influence were withering away.
From a dish on the plate to a father at the table!
Before Black Goat made his move, he was thought to be just another low-ranking Meat Goat Demon in the Abyssal Hundred Hells, valuable only for his delicious taste. Who would have thought he was actually the returning Sin Great Demon God! This was...
It was like preparing to eat seafood, only for the bright red crab in the dish to suddenly extend its claws and pinch you to death!
Clearly, the Sin Demon God who was inwardly lamenting his fate was not just the Lust Demon God.
The Demon Gods who had previously been seated around the table, discussing the Abyss and the original sins, now sat in the same positions but with entirely different expressions. Their heads were bowed, their backs hunched, and their shoulders drawn in, resembling condemned prisoners awaiting their sentence... and that was exactly the case.
After personally witnessing the "Sin Great Demon God's" ability to manipulate Planes, the five Sin Demon Gods had no hope of escape. They could only obediently sit at the table, hearts pounding with fear, waiting for his judgment.
...
"I can't take it anymore!"
The "Sin Great Demon God" on the main seat remained silent, occasionally lifting his head to look at them with a strange expression, as if not entirely satisfied. The Wrath Demon God, the most temperamental of them, suddenly stood up, teeth clenched, and shouted angrily:
"We were the ones who ganged up to take you down before, and now I accept my fate of falling into your hands! Just tell us how you plan to deal with us! Give us a quick death!"
"Ah?"
"..."
This damn bastard!
Seeing Black Goat, who was startled by his shout, let out a small "ah" and instinctively leaned back in his chair, his eyes showing a hint of fear, the Wrath Demon God's blood pressure soared.
If you're going to kill or torture us, just do it! You beat us so easily earlier, so why are you putting on this act now? Who are you trying to toy with?
However, the Wrath Demon God was unaware that Black Goat's fear wasn't an act—it was genuine.
Leon! Dad Leon! Lord Leon!
After yelling incoherently in his mind a few times, the terrified Black Goat desperately tried to contact Leon, who was inside him.
These are the Sin Demon Gods out there, and I can't handle them alone! How long has it been? Why is it taking so long to contact the Clean-up Bureau? Please, just say something!
'Tsk.'
Annoyed by Black Goat's incessant pleas for help, Leon, who was trying to contact the Taurus Director, briefly took control of Black Goat's body and glared at the suddenly enraged Wrath Demon God.
Under the powerful suppression of the [Master of Demons], the Wrath Demon God's accumulated anger vanished instantly, and his knees buckled, causing him to fall back into his custom-built giant chair.
"Stay put!"
After warning the Wrath Demon God, who was trying to act up, Leon retreated back into Black Goat's body and continued attempting to contact the Taurus Director. However, due to the time difference caused by [Yesterday's Abode], no matter how hard Leon tried, he couldn't reach the Clean-up Bureau.
"What are you glaring at?"
With Leon's support, Black Goat immediately regained his confidence.
Lifting his goat hoof, he slammed it on the table and shouted at the Wrath Demon God:
"Didn't you hear me tell you to behave? Sit up straight! Chest out! Head up! No leaning back in your chair!"
"You?!"
"Who, me?"
Because of his miserable days in the Abyss, Black Goat harbored deep resentment towards the Sin Demon Gods. With Leon backing him up, he immediately reverted to his old ways, scolding the Wrath Demon God with a haughty expression:
"Shut your mouth! Or you'll regret it later!"
Why later… shouldn't it be now?
After hearing this, the Sin Demon Gods' expressions changed as the oppressive aura around Black Goat dissipated, and he returned to being a "regular" Great Demon. The Arrogance and Envy Demon Gods looked at him with a scrutinizing gaze, Greed Demon's eyes filled with contemplation, and the Lust Demon God's deep pink eyebrows raised slightly, her eyes shimmering with a hint of allure.
"This... person..."
"You, shut up too!"
"?"
Hatred flared up as Black Goat, who had been frequently hunted by succubi and nearly caught several times, silenced the Lust Demon God with a powerful silencing spell. He then pointed his gleaming leftover spear at her, his face filled with disgust:
"Among you, I hate you the most! With two mouths, one for talking and one for eating, you use the wrong one for the wrong thing and the right one for the wrong things!"
"???"
"What are you looking at? Not convinced?"
Seeing the Lust Demon God tremble from his targeted insults, her eyes filled with intense killing intent, Black Goat, who was finally able to stand up to her, couldn't help but sneer. He began to prepare a second, even more insulting attack in his mind.
If I can't physically overpower the Sin Demon Gods, at least I need to win with my words. If I can't even do that, won't all my suffering be for nothing? You little b... hmm?
Just as he was about to continue his verbal assault, he felt an emptiness inside him and was suddenly shaken to the core, cold sweat pouring down his back.
Wait... where is he? Where is Dad Leon?
