In the apprentice's "spiritual vision", the outline in front of him gradually changed from virtual to real, becoming the same as a real person.

She had long, straight black hair that was soft and shiny, and wore a dark black dress like the night sky, embroidered with intricate and ornate floral patterns. Her skin was as white and blemish as snow, her slender wrists and ankles were exposed, her eyes were closed, and her eyelashes were long, like a princess sleeping in the depths of the forest in a fairy tale.

“…… Girl? ”

Richard was stunned.

Summoned by the Book of Demon Dao, it was a young girl about fourteen or fifteen years old, who remained motionless and stood in front of him with her eyes closed.

"It looks like a real person."

Richard sighed in his heart. Judging from the appearance alone, the other party does not seem to have the power and oppression of the legendary "demon god" who wantonly changes the fate of human history and heroes, and is considered to be the supreme existence of the spiritual world. In fact, he had been mentally prepared to welcome a terrifying demon king from the depths of hell or a giant monster in the shape of a tentacle wielding evil god in front of him, but it turned out to be very different from what he had imagined.

But after calming down, Richard could sense something extraordinary. For no other reason, the spirits he had seen had taken various forms, but even if they were humanoids, they were only close to humans in outline, and they were still essentially luminous bodies with blurred faces, and it was impossible for anyone to mistake them for real people. Even the giant-like spirit that Rasputin summoned at the end of the day, which was suspected to be of the legendary rank, was far from a human in appearance.

But the short figure in front of him, no matter how you look at it, is just a sleeping woman, from the slender body to every inch of skin texture, it looks like a real person with flesh and blood. This sense of finesse is difficult to imitate. Of course, she could not have been a real human being, because it was impossible for an intelligent being with a physical body to appear in the spirit realm. He tried to turn off his vision, making sure he couldn't see her in the real world. In other words, the other party is a spirit, there is no doubt about it.

Since it was confirmed that the other party was likely to be the legendary "Demon God", Richard naturally did not bother rashly, but sat quietly in place, even if the anxiety in his heart was burning like a flame, he still continued to endure, maintaining a quiet demeanor and waiting for the other party to wake up. After all, this is an even more exaggerated existence than the previous wizard leader, and if there is any disrespectful behavior, maybe the other party will wake up early and kill him for the reason of "disturbing people's dreams".

After about ten minutes, the other person's eyelashes fluttered slightly. Richard, who was already like an ant on a hot pot, was overjoyed when he saw this. He felt like he had waited at least a century.

"Uh, by the way, what's next? I need to say something...... I've seen in the library that cultists who worship evil gods will make up long paragraphs of words to please the object of worship, and some can even compile several dictionaries that they can't read for three days and three nights...... In fact, in this regard, the Orthodox Church is also half-hearted, and nine times out of ten of the canons they compile are singing praises to the gods...... By analogy, the Demon God might also like to curry favor with lowly humans? ”

Richard was so nervous that he began to think wildly. He wondered if he had been too prepared. Although Rasputin also didn't seem to be prepared, he was a legendary wizard after all, and the Demon God would definitely be useful to him.

It is said that since the Bronze Age, the gods have signed an agreement with each other that they will no longer formally meddle in mortal affairs, and most of the gods will either sleep in their own kingdom or go to the pantheon above the endless firmament, so there will be the Black Iron Age known as the "Mortal Age", so they will indeed need those high-status and powerful mortals as servants and spokesmen, and convey the will of God to the world on their behalf, and continue to influence and rule the world.

"But not every god cares about the good things that mortals say, and I hope that the one I have summoned will be pragmatic...... Wait, wouldn't it be worse if it was the pragmatic type? I'm just a wizard apprentice, so what's worth taking advantage of? If you don't even have a chance to let go of your pride and please each other with sycophants, you'll be miserable......"

Reality doesn't change because of people's moods. Even if Richard's heart was full of worry and uneasiness, there was not much point at this time. He didn't have time to prepare anything more, the awakening of the demon god was a foregone conclusion, and he couldn't change it. He could only stare at the black-haired girl in front of him with trepidation, watching her slowly open her eyes.

*

For a moment, the human youth and the demon god with the body of a girl stared at each other, and neither spoke. The hall was shrouded in an embarrassing silence.

"That, Demon God-sama......"

Richard opened his mouth and quickly looked away. He only felt that the other party's pupils were like the surface of the water of an ancient well, secluded and calm, with a depth that seemed to be able to suck people's souls in.

He couldn't go on halfway through his words, on the one hand, because Richard hadn't figured out how to change his words, and on the other hand, he ...... What language does the demon god speak? He was found in the ruins near the border of the Rhine Kingdom, so the first thing he learned was the Rhine language, and since the magic tower has been moving within the Rhine Kingdom in recent years, it is currently the most common language on the tower. But the demon god in front of her is different, she has been sleeping for an unknown number of years, could it be that she is using the language of some ancient country that has disappeared?

The Demon God didn't respond immediately.

She seems to be observing her surroundings, moving her gaze from side to side. A faint halo of light ran from left to right, right to left, and finally fell on Richard.

Richard was creepy at her. He didn't know what that wonderful halo was, he just felt that his whole body, including the musculoskeletal, blood, and internal organs, was seen through.

After a long time, the red lips of the demon god in front of him opened slightly.

This time, he finally knew what language the other party was talking about-

……

“…… Wait, wait, what did you just say? ”

The moment he heard her open her mouth, Richard only felt that the back of his head had been hit hard, and he became dizzy, and even began to lose the boundary of reality.

At first, the demon god did not speak the Rhine, not the ancient language, not even any of the languages of the Mayan world, but ...... English on Earth!

Richard didn't have time to react at first, but then, presumably because of her East Asian appearance, she spoke again in Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Korean.

"You say you're ...... Just use Chinese! ”

The demon god bowed slightly. Needless to say, she could understand his words.

- "Transcendental AI, codenamed 'real name', salutes you, sir. ”
