Chapter 41: Detective from Hell

"I've fought the Lords of Hell, I've driven demons out for countless people, and I've saved the world. Why? Why? Why can't I go to heaven? Constantine spoke loudly of his exploits, trying to impress the archangel Gabriel.

"You know it yourself, John." Gabriel's human woman crouched on the ground and watched Konstantin's struggle indifferently.

"God, you want me to believe in God. Yes, of course. I've been praying every day for last few months, and I've never been so religious. If he wanted my faith, he had done it. ”

"You're just going to heaven, and your heart doesn't believe in God. You're just trying to stay alive! Gabriel pointed out the truth of Konstantin in one sentence.

Konstantin looked at the chief guard of heaven in front of him, the archangel who would blow the trumpet of doom on the day of destruction. His face was pale, and he could not know heaven better than he did, but it was a greater prison. Constantine longed for the embrace of the goddess of death more than heaven.

But he couldn't, his soul had been coveted by many Hell Monarchs for a long time, and the goddess of death would accept the soul of an unbeliever, but would never accept the soul of a man who had made a deal with the devil. Konstantin didn't want to die yet, and even if he died, his soul was in the hands of those demons he had deceived, and it was worse than death.

Konstantin was gone, but he believed that with his ingenuity he would always find a way to save himself. And when he got home, he met three people in front of his house. Haas, El, and a brunette woman.

"It's unbelievable to hear you're dying. It is said to be lung cancer! ”

"Haas, if you don't shut your foul mouth, you won't have to talk about my help. Of course, there was no need to talk about it in the first place. Konstantin could see Haas's intentions at a glance, and the fox, no matter how cunning, was no match for the hunter.

"Alright, Archmage. I've got the reward ready, can I talk about it next? ”

"I don't want to do business right now, get out of here." Konstantin is still worried about his future, and he is not in any mood at all.

"You!" Haas's anger exploded instantly. But El stopped him.

"Mr. Constantine, your illness is a curse plus a pathology of your body itself. If it's a simple curse and lung cancer, relying on your connections to solve it is definitely not a problem, but now that the curse has become entangled with the cells of your body and even penetrated deep into the soul, no one dares to say that it can save you. El's spiritual vision recovered somewhat in the vicinity of Konstantin's house, so the cause of Konstantin's illness was immediately apparent.

"If you're here to laugh at me, enjoy it."

"No, Mr. Konstantin. I don't mean to laugh at you, although it is not possible to cure your disease, but I can postpone your death, and the more days you live, the more likely you are to find a solution to the problem once and for all. ”

Konstantin picked up a cigarette and looked at El quietly for a moment.

"Name your deal." Opening the door, Konstantin led Haas and El into his home, and then prepared to close the door without paying attention to the woman in black behind him.

"No, let me in." The woman blocked the door that was about to close.

"Miss Dawson, you're not welcome here."

"My sister, Isabella's last message to me before she committed suicide was to look for you. Mr. Konstantin, I need your help, please. ”

Konstantin looked at the woman in front of him who was rigid on the outside and soft on the inside, and finally couldn't bear to let her in.

"Talk about your deal. My patience is limited. Konstantin said unceremoniously to Haas.

"Humph! Yes, we suspect ........................." Haas told Konstantin about the cause and effect, but unexpectedly he was refused.

"Dear Haas, I'm going to die, and my soul will fall into Hell if nothing else, and I can't provoke another Hell Monarch because of it. Because that means I'm going to suffer even more in the future. ”

"Don't lose faith in yourself." El ignited a holy light in his hand, and a warm white current poured into Konstantin's body. "I feel the power of holiness in you, and if I'm not mistaken, you should have just come into contact with the Lord's messenger."

Konstantin was startled at first when the light poured into his body, and then he felt his body warm, and he knew that his illness had been alleviated somewhat.

"So what? Do you think it's still a good thing to come into contact with something that looks like a robot? ”

"No, no, no, it is clearly stated in the books of Christ that angels are God-made instruments of war, just like Tony Stark's robots. But since there are still angels in contact with you, it means that the Almighty Lord has not completely given up on you. El pointed out the current situation of Konstantin and told him that he still had a chance to escape the misery of going to hell.

"I've agreed to your deal, but you must extend my life for another year, and infuse me with three, nay, five weapons with the same power you just had."

"What greed, Mr. Constantine. Three months, one weapon. You must know that now you are facing life and death, and your body is not to say that it is a miracle that you can survive a month a year. ”

Konstantin was a notorious presence in the witcher circles, and after some heated negotiations, El finally traded for his help in exchange for five months of his life and two weapons blessed by the Holy Light. But Haas also reminded El not to let Konstantin cheat. Gladly accepting Haas's advice, El only paid the first amount. In this regard, Konstantin hated Haas.

"Excuse me, angel? Oh, God? Monarch of Hell? You're not crazy, are you? Angela Dawson, the brunette woman, looked at the three of them with a confused expression. Although Angela is a believer in Christianity, as a woman in the new era and a police officer, in her heart she doesn't really believe in the existence of gods and demons, and S.H.I.E.L.D. has also blocked Thor's news, resulting in everyone still living in a materialistic world.

"Miss, gods and demons really exist. Maybe you don't believe it, but you have two demon hunters in front of you. A red flame emitted from El's hand to indicate that the women's world is so bizarre and so unexpected.

"Mr. Constantine, I don't discriminate that your friend is a mutant, but I came to you for my sister's death. Even though she's been crazy, she's still my sister, and I wonder how the hell she died!? Angela said word for word.
