Episode 458
458. Episode 458
A clash of poison and fire.
A body close to immortality and a sword imbued with the power of Acala.
The result of the two collisions was a hot, toxic atmosphere that filled the entire space with heat and venom.
Kuung!
Eventually, one winner was chosen.
The Hydra’s massive body collapsed along with the dozens of heads it had already accumulated, as its head, which seemed as if it would never break, split in half.
“It’s more futile than I thought~”
As the Hydra fell, the smaller Hydras that had been replicating themselves and running wild from the rubble also stopped moving.
Then it disappeared, leaving behind a green haze.
– The constellation screams that the ‘hungry prince’ is no good.
During the battle, all of the cloned heads and small hydras, including the head that was cut off by Seun, completely disappeared and were absorbed into the inner door.
Beelzebub, who had been expecting so much, was frustrated, but what could he do?
Se-Woon landed on the floor, suppressing his trembling hands and holding the sword.
‘It’s a bit difficult, but it’s better than before.’
It is rewarding to practice at home.
Although I used up a lot of mana, internal energy, and stamina, I was able to attack while preserving my divinity as much as possible.
At this point, there shouldn’t be any major problems when facing the demon of lust.
“Can I go through that door now?”
“maybe.”
“The door is there. You can just use the key from before. Oh, since it’s already attached, wouldn’t it be okay to just go in?”
“I don’t recommend it.”
The messages from the constellations that were worried about Seun came to mind.
I don’t know what kind of personality the demon of lust has, but if she goes in with him, I don’t know what will happen to him.
First, Seun’s footsteps moved towards the door behind him.
The door was now glowing green, revealing its presence, unlike when it was hidden behind the Hydra.
– The constellation, ‘The Crow with its Head Down’ demands that you pay close attention.
– The constellation ‘Snake Surrounding Envy’ advises that if you feel that you are in a dangerous situation, you should immediately use the power of envy to summon yourself.
Lilith, the goddess of lust.
What kind of being is it that makes the other demons so worried?
As his curiosity rose and he reached out his hand to the green haze surrounding the door, a captivating voice came into Se-woon’s head.
– Oh my, you came here on your own? I was going to go and look for it myself when it looked a little more appetizing.
Seun’s body stiffens momentarily.
Even though I only heard their voices, a unique sense of intimidation weighed on my shoulders when I met the constellations.
– master!
– Krung!
Even though Seun didn’t give a specific order, Turik spread his purple wings and protected Seun from Lilith’s pressure.
Ruin also blocks Seun’s path and resists the pressure of the god.
Thanks to that, Se-Woon was able to shake off the feeling of oppression, come to his senses, and reveal the identity of the voice he had heard.
“Release.”
– Aren’t they cute? No, we shouldn’t be doing this here. Should we invite them?
Bam!
There was no need to use a master key.
The door opened, and the green haze swirling around grew stronger.
Seun’s body was quickly pushed into the door by a huge force.
An overwhelming force that cannot be resisted even by Turik’s wings or Ruin’s huge body.
Although it was true that I had intended to go in through the door in the first place, I did not want to be dragged in like this, so I tried to anchor my body by pinning it to the floor.
Gagagagak!
However, sparks flew out from the back of the stick stuck in the ground, and a long black mark was left on the ground in the direction it was being dragged.
“If you don’t mind, can I come in with you?”
Just before Se-un’s body was completely dragged in, Arcana ran over and blocked the closing door with a giant card.
Then he stretched out his arm and tried to grab Seun, but unlike Seun, he felt a repulsive force rather than an attractive force on her.
– Excuse me, honey.
Fight!
Her body, as well as the card that had been stuck between the door and the door, was flung far away.
Even while flying, he threw the scythe he had created by transforming the card, but even that was bounced off the ceiling by the repulsive force and was deeply embedded.
“Wow, was that the seed you just set up?”
“Sister Anna!”
“What happened? Are we perhaps a step late?”
Is the timing good or bad?
Arcana landed lightly as a feather despite being forcibly thrown back by the force, and as soon as the door closed, the Diablo Guild members arrived.
After reading Seun’s guild chat, I went down to the lowest level of the maze.
Of course, this was possible because the path to the lowest level was straight thanks to Seun and Arcana.
There were still faint traces of light left by Ariadne’s thread.
– If a guest comes and you keep knocking on the door from outside, it might be annoying.
At that moment, the closed door opened again.
Arcana quickly jumped forward so as not to miss this timing, but this time the door that opened was an exit, not an entrance.

“Kyaarrur-”
“Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!”
“Choooooooo.”
Countless monsters poured out from inside the door.
The monsters that had popped out in such a large number that it was difficult to count them one by one were entangled as if they had originally been one body, and it looked like water was pouring out from inside the door.
The monsters that emerged from the door slowly rose from their sticky amniotic sacs, as if they had just been born, and their green pupils flashed toward the Diablo Guild.
And at the end of it.
“CRACK CRACK CRACK!!”
A monster that Se-un defeated and originally guarded the land of lust.
Hydra raised its nine heads and glared at Arcana.
– Would you like to hang out with them for a bit?
With the captivating voice of Lilith echoing throughout the community, the Diablo Guild members, including Arcana, drew their weapons and prepared for battle.
* * *
The moment I was invited by Lilith and entered the land of lust, the first thing I felt was a squishy sensation from below.
No, can you even call this an invitation?
I wanted to come in from the beginning, but I didn’t feel good about being forcibly sucked in like this.
‘This…….’
Fortunately, there was no need to use magic to secure vision thanks to the green haze that softly filled the surroundings.
First, he lowered his head to figure out what this unidentifiable sensation was, and saw something grabbing Seun’s trouser leg.
“Ugh… … .”
“Roll… … .”
These were monsters whose forms had not yet been fully determined.
The monster that was holding Seun’s pants with its hands like bracken had only grown halfway through its body.
Even holding Seun seemed to be an instinctive movement out of curiosity rather than an attack.
‘A baby monster?’
No, no. These seemed more like unborn monsters rather than baby monsters.
To be exact, these are the ones that should still be in their mother’s womb.
This squishy texture was also something that came from the amniotic membrane covering the monsters.
“Do you think they like you too? What do you think? Isn’t it cute?”
A captivating voice in my ear.
Seun turned his attention to the monsters on the floor and raised his head in the direction where the voice came from. There was a green slime there.
To explain it simply, I called it slime, but in reality, it was something in the shape of a water balloon made up of the tangled and clumped together amniotic membrane and monsters on the floor.
“The child you killed was also born here. How was it? Was it of any use?”
The slime began to change shape.
Parts of the body began to sag and groan as if in pain, becoming smaller and smaller.
The color became darker, the height decreased to be similar to that of a statue, and the shape of a human figure was formed.
Even before the figure was completed, it approached Seun with a captivating gait, pulling up the corners of his lips.
“But of all the children born here, he was the strongest. He ate all the children born with him and absorbed the most of my strength.”
The slime stopped changing, its color settled, and the form of the demon of lust, Lilith, was revealed.
“Is that what you see?”
Brown hair that sways and shines on skin as white as jade.
She was a woman with an appearance that was too elegant and plain to be called a goddess of lust, but who had a charm that was hard to take your eyes off of.
Perhaps because I had changed my form into a slime instead of the real thing, or perhaps that was how it originally looked, but instead of proper clothing, I was wearing something that looked like a torn cloth covering my entire body.
And yet, from the curved body exposed above the sky, a dizzying fragrance rose.
Unlike Lucifer, I didn’t feel any hostility from her, so I first addressed her with respect.
“Well, what kind of look do you like? I can change it to whatever style you want.”
“doesn’t exist.”
“Hmm, of course not. How about this look? Or this? Oh. Do you like the one outside?”
The appearance of the release changed from time to time.
Hair color or style may change, and clothes that resemble pieces of cloth may change into luxurious ones.
Then, the last figure found was Arcana wearing a red dress and holding a bundle of cards in one hand.
Release leaned forward as he was and stroked Seun’s jawline.
‘Lust Goddess, Lilith.’
I could immediately understand her nickname.
Without even having to make any effort to seduce her partner, her appearance and every movement was imbued with an irresistible charm.
That charm was slowly, little by little, trying to dig into Se-un’s mind.
– no!
– Kwang!
“Oh my, are you showing me your teeth just now? A spirit and a phantom. Ah, this is hard to call a phantom. A divine beast? The aura I feel is ambiguous.”
Turik’s wings shook off Release’s touch and obscured Seun’s vision.
Immediately afterwards, Ruin came between Seun and Lilith, putting distance between them.
Se-Woon was only able to come to his senses after moving away from Lilith for a while.
‘It’s not just a simple temptation.’
Rather, something closer to mental magic or a curse, such as brainwashing or hypnosis.
At the last moment, if it weren’t for the help of Turik and Ruin, I would have used the power of jealousy to get help, just like Leviathan said.
Her seduction was so strong that it was impossible for Seun to shake off her on his own.
“You have a lot of cute friends?”
It is not real.
It’s just that he descended to the tower using something that resembles that slime. No, he’s only sending down a very small portion of his power, just conveying his will.
And yet, that level of strength?
Indeed, it was a drink of lust.
‘Mammon and Leviathan weren’t worried for nothing.’
Without Turik and Ruin’s help, it would have been impossible to maintain my sanity.
Because I had to shake off the intimidation caused by the stigmata while protecting my mind from her temptations.
The good news was that even though Turik and Ruin barged in, Lilith didn’t show any reaction.
Although he is interested in both of them, he doesn’t necessarily want to close the distance between them. In other words, now is the best time to talk to her.
“So, what did you want to say that made you come all the way here?”
Lilith asked Seun, acting coquettish.
Seun opened his mouth after stroking Turik’s head as if pressing it while he was shouting, “Master! No! Come to your senses!” from the side.
“I would like to make a deal.”
