The Devil Who Grants Wishes

[Don’t go…]

‘eww…’

It has already happened dozens of times for Lucia to catch me as I am leaving, but it is still unfamiliar.

Lucia’s sadness and fear of what might happen to Lucia when I’m not around, everything just doesn’t get used to it.

Lucia’s Managuada won’t get any better if I don’t leave, so it’s a must, but… ah.

‘Especially when I’m not there, I’m very afraid that Lucia will get hurt.’

No matter how much Nero is there to appease the loneliness, Nero is just a cat and cannot help Lucia when something dangerous happens.

Even though she said she didn’t use furniture that could hurt her as much as possible, isn’t there a lot of reasons why she could get hurt, such as falling out of bed or falling while running at home?

I can’t do it because if I put a defensive magic on it in advance, it’s going to have a bad effect on Lucia who has Managuada, but if something dangerous happens to Lucia when I’m not there… Ugh, just imagining it is terrible.

Also, I should have someone at home to take care of Lucia.

‘…But who should I use?’

Slaves are… no, no.

If the master was a demon, I would be terrified, and above all else, I am too anxious to entrust Lucia to someone else whose name is the only slave and I have no control over everything.

Of course, brainwashing can solve such problems, but you shouldn’t do this because you’re playing with one’s life.

I am a demon on the outside, but a human on the inside.

I don’t feel any guilt at all because I’ve become a demon, but I still have the memory and common sense about what is right and wrong, so I can know enough.

‘If anyone knows that I am a demon and can cooperate with me without malice… Irene?’

Ummm… Shall I ask Irene a favor?

Even though I knew I was the devil, I had no objection to the devil to the extent that I kept trading. And, as you can see from the fact that he gave me the recipe for baby food, I have a wealth of knowledge about caring for children as I have lived for a long time.

Even as an elf, the quality of magic is quite high, so I can resist my magic. This can be proven that although I met Irene a lot, nothing had changed with her.

Most of all, I like the fact that if you pay the price, it is certain.

Wow, the more you think about it, the better it is, right? I’ll have to ask Irene a favor.

………….

“I can’t quit this job.”

However, as soon as I met Irene, my expectations were shattered in an instant.

Ah… that’s right, I didn’t think Irene had a job too.

“I will give you enough money so you can take a break from your pawnshop work for a while.”

“I’m sorry. Faust, I’m doing this to make money, but my ultimate goal is something else.”

Irene’s stubborn and desperate feelings are felt through Faust’s skin. I feel the will to not give up no matter how much money I give.

Persuasion doesn’t seem to work at all.

Uh… the plan went wrong.

‘I thought it would be okay if I paid enough money as I continued to collect money recklessly… Oh, so what should I do now?’

Keying-

“Yes, Master.”

“…?”

At that moment, a portal suddenly opens from the side, and Aigo walks out of there.

Last time I looked at it, my whole body was completely dirty, but now it’s completely recovered, so it’s very clean.

What, why is he suddenly coming out? I never called you

“This Aegokeros, I have received a call from my master.”

No, so I never called… What, this.

Passion-

Aigo reached in front of me, knelt down on one knee to pay tribute to me, and at the same time started discharging magic in all directions. As if this is etiquette.

I am living my life by suppressing my magic as much as possible so as not to cause any harm to those around me, but Aigo, who has been a demon since birth, obviously doesn’t seem to care about that at all.

Irene’s peaceful new store is filled with magic in an instant, as if it had ever been.

No, if this happens, the city will be eroded by the Magi and catastrophe will occur.

“Aigokeros, get rid of the Magi.”

“Yes, Master.”

When I give the order, Aigo suppresses the magical energy that was emitted around him and puts him to sleep.

I thought I was going to ask at least the reason as I was so hot-tempered that they attacked me from the first meeting, but it wasn’t.

Aigo simply obeys my orders without question.

Uh… First impressions were pretty bad, but surprisingly, he listens well.

‘What’s this…’

It’s not even at the level of just being a good listener.

Not a single word of magic came out of Aigo, as if he had not released magic from the beginning.

I can’t do this?

No matter how much I suppressed it, the magic continued to flow, but what did Aigo do?

“what!?”

I was admiring Aigo’s abilities, but then I heard Irene’s surprise from my side.

“Aigokeros…!?”

Apparently, Aigo has just revealed her name, but Irene acts as if she’s known Aigo’s name from the start.

They don’t seem to know each other…

I guess it’s just that Irene knows Aigokeros unilaterally.

hey hey

Irene, who suddenly took the staff out of the air and headed towards Aigo, condenses the mana on the staff without limit.

Condensed mana so much that if the posture is disturbed even a little, the condensed mana explodes and it seems like the surrounding area will be devastated.

It wasn’t made by magic through magic formulas, but only with mana that was simply collected.

What, why are you so fussy?

Peeing-

“-?!”

“It’s crazy to do something like that here.”

Absorbs the mana condensed on the tip of the staff through the mana drain.

Ugh, even I get a little reaction, right? If I had left it alone, something really bad would have happened.

“Do you know this demon?”

“…it would be strange if you didn’t know about Aegoceros, who destroyed several kingdoms.”

okay? But I don’t know why.

Listening to Irene, Aigo seems to be a pretty named devil, but he’s a guy who didn’t even show his nose in Noah. In other words, a demon that didn’t completely exist in the story.

Hmm… Well, this world looks just like Noah, but it’s not exactly a copycat level, so it could be.

“Thanks for noticing. By the way, what are you?”

“What?”

“Looking at you, you look like a very old elf, how can you dress like a young elf at that age? Isn’t it embarrassing?”

While thinking about the difference between Noah and this world, Aigo suddenly starts pointing out Irene’s outfit.

Eh? Isn’t that good enough for an elf?

Many of the elf races that users played in Noah showed the status of the 19-gold restriction game by going around naked with female characters. A garter belt, a swimsuit, and pantyhose… Ugh.

Compared to that kind of outfit, what Irene is wearing is quite revealing and wholesome.

“…what are you talking about, this is trendy these days-“

“Yeah, let’s pretend that.”

“Hey, hey…!”

At the same time as Irene feels shame, mana begins to condense from the staff again.

No, what’s the matter again?

………….

[Could I ask how old you are… no, how old are you?]

[Don’t say Yonsei!!]

As Aigo kept scratching Irene’s nerves, I didn’t think he could have any more constructive conversations, so I came back for now.

Ugh, I went to find a nanny to take care of Lucia, but I’m just wasting it.

“It’s been a while since I’ve tasted the negative emotions of an elf. It’s a delicacy, too. It’s very sweet.”

But Aigo doesn’t know how I feel, and he’s just smiling, saying it’s the negative emotion of an elf that he’s tasted in a long time.

…Oh, are you just hitting that with a negative emotion?

Well, shame and anger are technically negative emotions.

“It can be said that there are very few elves who have maintained their emotions even though they are that old, and it’s really unique.”

Elves in Noah generally wear out their emotions as they get older.

This can also be seen as a phenomenon unique to the long-lived species, followed by the high-pressure and static society of the elves, and the physical characteristics of the elves, making all old elves behave like machines without emotions.

Aigo is very surprised that the setting is still applied here, and that the elf still maintains his emotions even though he is old.

Hey, Irene was an old elf.

I didn’t know about the elves because they all looked the same, but it’s amazing that Igo recognizes it right away.

‘Hmm…’

Oh, come to think of it, I think he is a surprisingly high-level talent.

Whenever I call, he comes to me in an instant, when I give an order, he immediately accepts it without question, blocks the flow beyond the level of suppressing magic, and even knows a lot of things I don’t know well, right?

My first impression was pretty bad, so I secretly ignored it, but looking at it like this, I’m very capable.

Shall I ask Aigo to take care of Lucia while I’m away?

It’s a bit unsettling that I’ve destroyed several kingdoms in the past, but once I’m sure they’re loyal to me, well…

“Aigokeros, from now on, I will indoctrinate you and place a curse that restricts your actions.”

“Yes, Master.”

Still, believing in the devil is foolish, so be prepared.

Cursing or brainwashing other people into my puppets is completely ruining their life, so I haven’t done it until now… but he’s a devil, right? where’s life to the devil

“Aren’t you afraid?”

“The existence of the devil is made up of the unique traits and forms of magical powers, and even if memories, personality, and ego are transformed, I am still me, and above all, I have nothing to fear because I have already died once at the moment I gave my allegiance to my master. .”

“…Yeah, I got it.”

I don’t know what you’re talking about

Memories, personality, and ego have been transformed, but why am I still me? The devil’s point of view, which values magical power, seems to be very different.
