Chapter 66 gives the greatest punishment to the wicked II
Actually, there is no need to hesitate.
It took a while for the Glory to discover the blind spot in his mind - after all, why did he, and they, go to the point of hell to go through the gate to Pandimanenan, and sacrifice themselves to create the opportunity to break into the temple for the team in charge of attacking?
This is not something that can be encompassed by a simple sentence of "to survive", and there is no way to generalize it with words like "glory" and "revenge".
But one thing is beyond doubt.
No matter what city they come from, or whether they have awakened their stigma or not, they all have a common goal, and that is to ......
Kill it!
Kill the culprit of everything, kill this greedy demon king.
So—
Regardless of whether it really wants to die or retreats as a means of advancing, and let it speak with clever words and clever tongues, it will inevitably die in the end.
He'll get his hands dirty.
It's just that......
The corners of the Glory's mouth curled up in a slight arc - it still has use, doesn't it?
"Kill you?" Amy said with a moderate amount of surprise and alarm, "I can't see your sincerity at all if that's all you call a deal." ”
"Why bother with it?" Coubke had no idea what was going on in this, or even ...... Ignorant of their communication in the spirit world, we could barely get a glimpse of the scales through the boy's self-talk, "What are you hesitating about here? What is the need to hesitate? Even if it is just to give an explanation to Aina, Hansen, and Laurie, we must kill it—blood for blood, tooth for tooth." ”
"How can it be so simple," the Gloryer shook his head, revealing the full contents of the transaction, "just now, it made a deal with me, hoping that I could kill it." ”
"Then kill it. A categorical answer.
"But what if killing it is exactly what it wants?" the Glory One did not care about the eavesdropping of Mammon on the side, and even said it to it as well, "Maybe the last and most important seal that King Solomon laid was its own existence, and killing it would give it liberation and liberation?"
"No," he paused, "it doesn't make sense, the monster ...... Why ask to die. ”
"Hmm. The short boy's voice stopped abruptly.
Death is always insulated from beauty.
No one wants to die, and even demons dominated by chaotic consciousness have the most basic will to survive - so, Mammon's trade request ...... Doesn't make sense.
It took a step slower for Corbock to figure out the crux of the matter.
But Amy had no obligation to wait for him, and his gaze, his attention, never took his eyes off the demon king, from the distorted, dark, amorphous mist.
"It's a question I can't figure out," the Honorable Man asked, aggressively, "Can you give me an answer? ”
"What if I say I can't?"
"Won't it be good?" smiled the young Glory, showing eight teeth and a fierce predator-like smile, "just a little curious...... Is it really possible to stuff smoke like yours into a bottle?"
He looked it up and down with interest.
Then he sighed and said to himself, "Forget it, there doesn't seem to be a safety guarantee for this—maybe adding a fire crystal to it would be a good choice?"
“......”
The greedy demon king was silent, and the young man in front of him did paint a hellish picture for it in just a few words.
- There was no need to anger him further.
Quite sensible, Mammon made a decision: "If this is what you ask. ”
"What do I ask...... Amy asked knowingly, "do you mean to stuff you into a bottle, or throw a piece of fire crystal into the bottle you are in?"
"Neither. The Demon King ignored his joke, "It's the reason why I begged for death." ”
Rather subtle pause.
"—Life is better than death. ”
"Is it because of Solomon?" the Glory, of course, did not believe its words, but simply continued the conversation with its words, "What did he do to you?"
Only the King of Wisdom and the King of Sages can make a demon king who once stood at the top of this world worse than dead.
"As you can see. "He stripped me of the souls of twenty-one thousand two hundred and thirty-six people in my body, and then sealed me in this temple, watching as everything that should have belonged to me was not under my control, watching them diminish little by little with the passage of time—watching, watching, watching, forever watching, seeing, not touching, so that I was constantly plunged into self-destruction and torture." ”
Mammon, the demon king who was named greedy, corresponds to the greed of the seven deadly sins, and it naturally has a greedy nature that matches it.
In real history, King Solomon did not kill it, but sealed it and imprisoned it in an empty temple, not at all because he could not do anything about its immortal body, but simply wanted to torture it, the demon king who destroyed a city.
And what could be more uncomfortable for a miser who regards money as his life, than to take his treasure mountain and seal it away? What could be more uncomfortable than to let it just watch its treasure mountain be empty little by little?
Of course not.
It's no wonder that it wants to die.
If he hadn't made up his mind before, he might have really been confused and deceived by this news that he didn't know whether it was true or false, but since his murderous intent had been firm, there was no room for repentance.
So, he nodded: "I promised you." ”
"What did you promise it?" Cockcock was unaware of the conversation in the spirit world, but it was not difficult to sort out a logical line when it came to what the Glory One had said before and after, "You don't really believe its rhetoric, do you?"
"Of course not," Amy replied calmly, "I'm just doing what I'm supposed to do - by the way, Mr. Demon King, it's time for you to make good on your promise." ”
He was waiting for a truth, waiting for an answer.
"I can't trust you. ”
Mammon rejected him in a reasonable way, but alas, the Honorable were not reasonable opponents when dealing with enemies, especially those weaker than themselves.
"What nonsense," he refused, "I can't trust you." ”
The atmosphere was stalemate for a while, as if she was tired of this boring temptation, Amy completely singled out the ambiguous relationship between the two sides: "Since we can't trust each other, then don't talk about those meaningless nonsense - you and I actually know that you don't have a choice, so give a quasi-number, whether to accept or reject." ”
Whether it is acceptance or rejection, whether it is survival or destruction, in fact, there is only one final result.
That's ......
It will die.
