A crisp doorbell rings, alerting the two people who are talking in the room to have a visit. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Without being reminded by Count Cheno, "Greed" hid himself. The humanoid's appearance quickly disintegrated, and countless black silk threads pounced on the desk in front of Cheno like insects and flies.

The fir desk is like a sponge that absorbs all the black filaments that fall into it, and does not show any "repulsion". "Greed" disappeared from the study at a speed visible to the naked eye, leaving only an eerie smile on the surface of the desk.

"Bang-"

Chenno put the teacup he had been holding in his hand on the table, pressing it right on the black smiley face. A crimson glow emerged from his palm, turning into a ball and being pressed into the teacup.

The red ball of light passed directly through the barrier of the teacup base and sank into the tabletop, and then, the strange smiling face that had made people's backs tingle disappeared as if it had never appeared.

"Come in!"

Cherno poured himself a cup of tea and gave permission to his subordinates' requests, calmly as if nothing had happened.

......

In the dusk of the temple, the devil opened his closed eyes.

There was a soul-freezing coldness in the gaze of the dark pupils, which made the torches hanging on the left and right walls froze.

The devil looked around at the prison-like dwelling, and fell into an inexplicable feeling.

He remembered his long life in captivity, of his efforts to get out of trouble, and of the child who thought so highly of himself, who seemed to be called ...... Monroe?

"I thought I'd hate this place, but I didn't expect it to feel inexplicably intimate. Mephistopheles laughed at herself: "At least the space is much larger now, and I can't reach the ceiling with just my hand." ”

"I have to say, your taste is really hard to agree with. ”

A hair-draped head poked out of the devil's chest, and while complaining about Mephistopheles' tall throne, he clawed at the armrests on either side of the throne with his thin claws, trying to pull his body out completely.

"You're jealous!"

Mephistopheles was not surprised by his sudden appearance, but rather joked with him.

"I was indeed 'jealous'. ”

Although the tone was still respectful, Mephistopheles could hear a categorical taste from the other party's words.

"Why do you all like to name yourself?"

"Who else are we?"

"Quite an interesting guy. ”

As if thinking of something, Mephistopheles let out a few chuckles.

"Then why didn't I see him?" The newly born "jealousy" felt very lonely, and when he heard that he had another brother, he was naturally overjoyed, and even the movement of his body pulling outward stopped.

"Can you come out first?" Mephistopheles said with a voice after glancing down at the jealousy that was still in her body.

"I'm sorry, my lord, but I was so excited. I don't understand why you're embarrassed, though, am I influencing you in something?"

Mephistopheles, of course, would not answer the "jealous" inquiry, so he digressed the subject: "Are you really happy to hear from him?"

"Of course, I was so excited that I couldn't control myself, I really wanted to tear him to shreds right now!"

"Your name is not wrong, it is very apt. ”

"What about him?"

"What?"

"What do you think of his name?"

"He's apt, too......" Mephistopheles' smile grew brighter and brighter: "Although he looks arrogant on the surface, it is more like a means to lower my vigilance, he wants to 'eat all', this kind of unrestricted strong possessiveness I can feel with my eyes closed." ”

"He's a bad boy!"

"Jealousy" pulled his body outward, while denouncing his brother, completely devoid of the excitement just now, as if he was drawing a line with practical actions.

"No, I think he has a great future. Mephistopheles' smile was even worse, he glanced at the "jealousy" that had basically drilled out of his body, and said pointedly, "You are also very promising." ”

"He is calculating you again, and dividing me and him together is completely eccentric!"

"Jealousy" stood in front of Mephistopheles and said with some annoyance, not only did he speak like a child, but he also looked similar to a child, looking a few years younger than Count Cheno.

Although there is not much difference in age, he does not have the handsome appearance of Count Cheno.

The wrinkled face looked like an old orange peel that had lost water, and there were no bright eyeballs in the hollow eye sockets, replaced by two scarlet sparks, especially when he said the word "eccentric", and the sparks suddenly brightened so brightly, as if they could burst out of their sockets at any moment.

The blue-black hair is very thick and looks very beautiful, but if you look closely, you can see that at the end of the hair are tiny snake heads. Although only about the size of a normal hair, these little snakes are very energetic, and from time to time they show their fangs, spit out their cores, and writhe their bodies as if they have reached puberty.

Because of Mephistopheles' attention, "jealous" held his chest up and looked up, but this didn't make him look much more energetic, because his body was still rickety.

Those with a little experience can see that his spine is not a straight line, but the upper part is straight, and the lower part is curved.

Although "jealous" has a somewhat "peculiar" appearance, as long as you ignore these, he is actually quite cute, anyway, Mephistopheles thinks so.

Not to mention him, even the self-righteous "greedy", in Mephistopheles's eyes, is also a cute child, and of course, a useful pawn.

"Aren't you scheming against me?" Mephistopheles pointed out the intentions of "jealousy": "That little fellow always shows his nobility so that I can let my guard down and have the opportunity to 'eat' me with the gods." And you're always showing your innocence, so that I can let my guard down, so that I can have a chance to destroy me, the gods, and that stinky little guy together!"

"What, am I not right?"

"You are wise, my lord, will you kill me?"

The words of "jealousy" do not show any fear, some are just ignorant, like a curious child.

"No, no, no, I don't care if you calculate me, on the contrary, I'm proud that you have the audacity, as I just said, you are all good boys with great promises!"

"Since we won't kill it, it proves that we still have value that we haven't squeezed out, right?" Although the words of "jealousy" were questions, their tone was full of affirmation.

Hearing his inquiry, for some reason, the smile on Mephistopheles' face disappeared, he looked at the little guy in front of him, and asked in a low tone, "Why do you call me Lord instead of Father?"

"Because I don't think I'm your heir. ”

"You are very smart, you are all part of me from myself, although you are still very naïve, but in a sense, you do represent a one-sided 'me', so you are not my heirs. ”

"What do you mean by this......"

"Make a note of this, it will make a lot of sense to you. ”

"He's dying, isn't he?"

"Who?"

"Another good boy of yours!"

"You are indeed much smarter than him!"

"Can you ask him what his name is, and I think we should leave something behind, even if it's just for a short time. ”

"Greedy!"

"Greedy....... that's a good name......"
