Chapter 495: It’s Darkening! (1)

It felt a bit painful, enough for me to wonder while running if it would be right.

This was a situation where they had risked their lives to enter the heart of the enemy territory at a golden time. They may have hopes of a possibility with the Limur Raid, which started after entering the nest.

I remembered the faces of the guys who seemed desperate, though. More or less, I was worried about whether they couldn’t recover from the shock of this incident.

‘It mustn’t be that much, well…’

In particular, I was a little worried about Jung Hayan, but I had no choice but to believe that Kim Hyunsung would help her psychologically.

‘Park Deokgu will be the same… ’

At this point, I was simply hypnotizing myself, saying it would be okay in many ways.

However, knowing what the feeling of despair would be when the hope that I had seen for a moment disappeared in an instant, I had to check the darkening plan once again.

‘But what can I do? This is the only way.’

There was no guarantee that this plan would work out in the first place. There was no guarantee that I would be able to earn time just because I was going right now, and the great task of holding on until Ballitos arrived may be near impossible against the angry Kim Hyunsung.

‘It’s not just Kim Hyunsung over there…’

There was also Cha Hee-ra from the Red Mercenary Guild, and Yuno Kasugano from Celia.

Fortunately, Park Yeon-joo was missing, but there were also many other powerful players.

There were famous priests in the Holy See and Sun Hee-young and Elena who used saintly-grade divine power. Some were widespread people who were said to have made their name in the State even a little.

They showed an overwhelming fight against Limur and her servants, which could be said to be the main force of the 27th Legion, so it was not unreasonable that candles at both ends had been busy burning.

Of course, if Limur were to die, I would have to go out at that point.

I didn’t know about Donovan, but Belial’s fixed first pick couldn’t possibly be retired here. The thought of Limur getting attacked was enough for me to quicken my pace.

‘It’s ridiculous that the precious first pick of Belial, the great ruler of all evils, will die. Yes, absolutely.’

[Right.]

Fuck.

[It looks like things have gotten complicated.]

Sh*t.

‘It didn’t. Belial. These are all part of the plan, so you can watch relieved.’

[Enough with the disgusting and vile lie. I already have a rough idea of ??how things are going. Do you know how important this is?]

‘Of course, I do. That’s why I’m running crazy like this. Belial doesn’t have to come out. I will take care of everything on my own.’

[I don’t think it’s bad, but how can I just stay still and watch them get ruined? That’s what it means to have lost trust.]

‘That means…’

[There is no need to worry. I’m not going to do the same unexpected thing last time, disgusting human. I am not trying to ruin what you have accomplished in this world. I have no intention of harming the humans you care about. I have no intention of harming you. As I said before, I care for you, and I’m waiting for the day you will work with me. I just thought it needed some degree of intervention. Isn’t that right?]

‘Then… what kind of help…?’

[A contract.]

‘What?’

[This is a contract.]

‘What kind of contract you are talking about, this stupid mortal doesn’t know… Isn’t it impossible for me to sign a contract in the first place?’

[I looked for a way, and it’s not necessarily. It would have been impossible if the continent’s gods, including Benignore, had not been away, but now there seems to be room for some intervention. It is a direct contract, not a temporary contract like the last time.]

‘That’s…’

[It doesn’t mean you should throw away what you received from Benignore. However…]

‘Yes?’

[Let’s share.]

‘…;

[Of course, this is only if Benignore and the other continental chiefs allow sharing you, but there is no problem with the contract process.]

‘Would you look at this guy?’

I had to be silent for a moment at the voice I heard. For some reason, I wondered if Belial also wanted this to happen.

I didn’t know if he had gone quiet, waiting for this timing, or if he really figured out how to sign a contract with me directly.

It was probably both.

If not, he wouldn’t have talked about anything like this at a time like this. The class I had gotten from Benignore as an Alchemist of Light was a different kind, but it was part of the contract.

Giving me a class, she urged me to fight on the side of the light, and I accepted it.

Not thinking about the possibility of signing a double contract with Belial was, in a way, quite natural. This was even more so when I was to think about the conflict between black magic and divine power.

One suspicious thing was why it was a double contract. From Belial’s point of view…

‘Isn’t it more advantageous to just beat Benignore and sign a contract?’

[Impossible.]

‘… …’

[You said the way you thought was impossible. You might be wondering why I talk so nicely. Now, if you think that your situation is not so good, you will feel that way even more. However, a contract that threatens or forces someone is an unfair contract on our side as well, and there is a high probability that future problems will arise. It seems like I’d like to sign a contract against you with this as a pretext, but I can’t do that in the first place.]

If this was true, it meant that the contracting process in Hell was much better than in the present world.

[You are free to believe it or not. However, if you think about why the demons summoned in this world even accept contracts from humans who say useless wishes such as gold coins and sacrifices, you will find the answer quickly. Contracts are negotiations, not coercion. Of course, there is indeed some trickery in the process, but at least this contract is not that kind of contract. Didn’t I say it before?]

‘Then.’

[Besides, it means you can’t do that because of the prohibition she put on you in the first place. She already had eyes on you. The incompetent bitch is amazing at biting a man. It’s funny that I thought I wouldn’t touch it.]

‘… …’

[Anyway, my condition is this. I’m not someone that yields by nature, so I want you to know that I’m yielding quite a big thing. The success of the disgusting plan you’ve come up with will bring me great benefits. What, do you need another explanation? If you’re in doubt… ]

‘No. No. Belial. For a moment, this lowly servant was suspicious of Belial’s strong will.’

It was just when I quietly nodded.

[A new special class was created with Belial’s intervention.]

[The Alchemist of Light class remains the same due to external intervention.]

[You have obtained a semi-mythic-grade class, Plaguelord of Darkness, as a subclass.]

[The mythic grade class given by external intervention has been removed from the Dark Plaguelord… ]

[Because of Belial’s intervention, the class Plaguelord of the Darkness is not removed.]

[You cannot have both classes at the same time.]

[As a result of Belial’s intervention, a semi-mythic-grade class trait class conversion is generated.]

[Switched Alchemist of Light to a subclass.]

[Converted the Plaguelord of Darkness to the main class.]

‘Huh? Huh?’

[Are you satisfied?]

‘The light has now betrayed me!’

[You must be satisfied.]

‘Gosh… I will give Belial infinite glory. Long live Belial!’

[I should know that, since I have invested a lot.]

Of course, there was no need to mention it twice.

I didn’t know how much of Belial’s performance had been inserted in me, but it could only be said that he had invested quite a bit if it was enough to intervene in an external system to get things done.

For a moment, I felt ashamed of being suspicious of him.

Belial, the ruler of the great all evils, did not engage in nasty tricks such as Benignore or Elune.

He was a reliable colleague for projects such as these. The warm feeling spreading through my chest felt good.

‘I will risk my life and make it successful.’

I couldn’t think of any other way than to succeed unconditionally. Immediately casting the Shining Ship and running out, even I could feel the unidentified heartlessness.

This was a near-impossible mission to stop the home army of the State invading Belial’s sanctuary. Had I had to stop them as Alchemist of Light, I might have collapsed so ridiculously easily.

However, Doom Kiyoung, who had gotten reborn in Belial’s last name, was completely different.

I was worried about the lack of magic power, but the potential wasn’t too bad to grasp.

The feeling that my whole body was full of power made me feel that I could do 100 push-ups without a break.

I needed to find out a little more about what special abilities it had, but at least there was no shortage of power. Once I reached the place where Limur was fighting a fierce battle, I slowly started walking.

From the outside, I could hear a huge roar emanating from the battlefield. When I pulled out the mirror and looked, it certainly didn’t look bad at all.

‘Wow, it looks like I got really corrupt.’

I didn’t know whether it was a special effect of the Plaguelord of Darkness, but a pale face that looked like a corpse had begun to stand out.

The color of my eyes had also been changed to a creepy, transparent blue. My white hair was also obvious, almost as if I had suffered a magic power exhaustion phenomenon. There were also bluish streaks, just like the color of my eyes.

Personally, I didn’t like it, but it was the perfect look that would satisfy the lack of mid-second sensibility. At a glance, it seemed to show that I had fallen.

‘I think it would be perfect if there were a half mask.’

[You have acquired the legendary-grade item ‘The Fallen Prince’s Half Mask’.]

‘Whoa… Thank you. Thaaanks!’

This indeed looked symbolic. It was also a device that could remind Kim Hyunsung of masked trash.

Kim Hyunsung was aiming his sword at Limur just as I entered the arena.

‘It’s been a long time. Hyunsung… Oh, nice to see you…’

However, when I looked at Limur, who harbored a resentful expression with several tentacles cut off, the candles at both ends began to burn again.

‘Fuck… I guess I’ve taken too much time.’

I raised my hand because I thought I had to intervene before he gave the final blow, but I immediately realized that I didn’t have to.

My eyes met with the guy who slowly started looking ahead. The first welcome expression slowly wrinkled, and then soon began to change into a face that looked like the sky was collapsing.

Even the way he dropped the sword in his hand without force was a spectacle.

Tears were filling his eyes, and I could see a defenseless figure that seemed to be full of cracks even to my own eyes. I couldn’t even think he was in battle.

‘What is this… what. Is it that much shocking?’

I thought he would be shocked to some extent, but what was reflected in my sight was the face of Kim Hyunsung, who seemed to have lost the will to fight.

He was slowly opening his mouth, but I couldn’t hear exactly what he was saying.

“W… why…”

‘What. Come on… Why is this so easy?’

“Whhhyyyy?!!!”

At the same time, Kim Hyunsung fell out of sight by the tentacles that Limur had just swung.
