Episode 594
594. Side Story Demon God (6)
After that, Baal brought various foods to Lucifer.
chocolate. Refreshments. fruit. Even dishes made with meat.
We provided a wide variety of things to Lucifer, and he was very satisfied.
“Hmm. “Good.”
Lucifer presses the fork. The pudding split gently.
Lucifer carefully put it into his mouth and smiled very satisfied.
“You can taste something like this. “Good.”
[Are you satisfied?]
“To the point of overflowing. very good.”
Lucifer was happy like a child. That look was quite cute.
Lucifer’s talent is very outstanding. Compared to the value of what he brought, there was more to it than dust and diamonds.
He was happy as if he had the whole world for something as small as dust.
That was a bit of fun for Baal.
[I guess there is nothing like this here.]
“There is nothing. It’s always a lump of potatoes. Very occasionally there is meat, but it’s terrible. “It looks like it’s a decent dish, but unfortunately it’s overwhelmingly lacking in cooking skills and seasoning.”
Lucifer grumbled and stabbed his pudding with his fork. I put it in my mouth and smiled broadly.
“It’s a bomb of seasoning. It may seem like too much, but this is what happens when you find a balance.”
[I’m glad you were satisfied.]
To his own surprise, Baal took Lucifer’s offer seriously.
We put a lot of effort into finding satisfying food that she could enjoy as much as possible. The process was somewhat fun.
“I was satisfied.”
Lucifer had finished his food before he knew it and wiped his mouth with satisfaction.
“good.”
[What do you want next?]
“Next.”
After thinking for a moment, Lucifer opened his mouth.
“Your favorite dish.”
[…My favorite?]
“Seeing as you bring something like this, doesn’t this show you have some insight?”
[It would be a lie to say there were none.]
Baal enjoyed the by-products of mortals. Other elder gods and demons saw him and said that he only enjoyed the by-products of trivial things, but Baal did not care.
“So, your favorite one.”
Lucifer grinned.
“There is a symbol, right? What you like, not what I might like. “I want to try it.”
[I knew it.]
“Sweet, salty and spicy food. These are just things that a child will like. “How could you not know?”
Baal laughed.
[good. I agree.]
“It’s your favorite. “Don’t pick roughly.”
Lucifer looked at Baal with serious eyes. Baal happily accepted the little life’s cute warning.
[I will take note.]
He pondered as he left the miniature garden and returned to his living quarters.
‘Is it my favorite dish?’
It was a topic I had never thought of before. Although I enjoy the by-products, I don’t necessarily differentiate between superiority and inferiority.
Baal thought for a moment and then laughed.
Among the by-products of the existence of the universe, which is your favorite?
I never imagined the day would come when I would seriously think about something like that.
But surprisingly, it wasn’t that bad. Rather, I was looking forward to it. What is his favorite dish? And how will Lucifer take it?
A new sensation.
At least it wasn’t boring.
Although he didn’t know it himself, a smile was on Baal’s lips.
The moment he turned around, someone approached him. The moment he realized its presence, the smile disappeared from Baal’s face.
[Baal.]
[Belial.]
One of the 72 demons. A lofty and lofty immortal being.
Belial slowly approached Baal.
[You look happy.]
[You look happy. okay. It was like that.]
Not now. Baal looked at Belial with cold eyes.
[You look happy too.]
[Yes. Something fun happened today.]
Belial said cheerfully.
[Today, an old man lost his son. My son’s son is twenty-four. son’s son’s son eighty-two. I made them all die with my own hands. The expression on his face when he killed the last one was very worth seeing.]
[I see.]
[I waited 78 years to see that. How tiresome it was to raise and raise the little mortals. Still, the pleasure of being annoying was clear. I was satisfied. I’ll have to try it again later in a different way.]
[It must have been fun.]
Baal laughed. It was a fake smile that contained no emotion.
[Will Baal join us as well?]
[No. I became I will enjoy my pleasure. This is better.]
[Oh. There is more joy than this. I’m very curious. Please let me know later.]
This is disgusting.
A smell that exudes the power of the being in front of you. The language you spit out. The whole thing was beyond disgusting.
Since when did I have this feeling? Baal himself did not know. It was such a long time ago.
Suppressing his disgust, Baal spoke lazily.
[I will do so when the time comes.]
[Thank you. By the way.]
Belial asked curiously.
[I have been feeling a strange twist in the demon world for some time now. It’s a very unpleasant sensation… Do you know what it is?]
[No. I do not know. It’s probably an illusion.]
[…Is that so?]
Belial was slightly embarrassed. There was no way a demon like him could mistake his displeasure, but Baal was very determined.
[okay. That will happen.]
Baal said bluntly.
[So don’t worry about it.]

“Is this your favorite dish?”
[At least among the foods I’ve tried, it was the one that suited my taste the most. I don’t know exactly what kind of dish it is.]
A dish made by mixing and combining numerous ingredients from a high-end restaurant.
After Baal continued to think about it, he realized that it was the most edible.
[The humans outside really liked it.]
“I want to eat your favorite dish, not someone else.”
[The same goes for me, so you don’t have to worry.]
“Hmm. “It doesn’t look that delicious.”
Lucifer tilted his head and lifted his fork. I slowly put the food into my mouth.
And Lucifer’s pupils got bigger.
She paused for a moment and muttered slowly. After a few dozen seconds, she threw what was in her mouth down her throat.
“…It’s delicious.”
Lucifer let out pure sentiment.
“And it’s amazing.”
Baal is the vessel of the transcendent.
Taste and smell Physical senses Brain rotation speed Intuition. Every part of it was lightly beyond recognition. I had already figured out all the dishes I had tried so far. If there were enough materials, Lucifer could be made to the same level right away.
But I couldn’t figure out this dish right away.
Numerous ingredients that go into cooking. The combination of those proportions and the skills that created them.
Even Lucifer could not easily grasp the sum of all of them.
It was a very different sensation for Lucifer.
“It’s not just about talent. It’s close to capturing generations of technology and history. The humans outside are capable of things like this. “It’s so different from us.”
There was envy in those eyes and voice.
Baal watched the scene for a moment and spoke impulsively.
[Would you like to go see it?]
“What?”
Lucifer’s pupils widened.
[I asked if I wanted to go see this restaurant. It’s probably business hours now.]
“Are you okay? “I’ll be in space, so can I move around so freely?”
Of course not.
The cooking was brought by his servants scattered throughout the universe, and he did not go there himself.
The moment we step out into the universe dominated by the transcendental, the transcendental will move and trample on Baal. This was even more so when trying to enter the human realm.
It was something he had to take a very big risk with. There was no reason to do that for the small being barely in front of me.
but.
The confusion in Lucifer’s eyes.
The anticipation hidden within it.
The moment I saw it, my worries disappeared.
[Does not matter. That much is possible.]
“…Really?”
[What should I do?]
“Okay then.”
Lucifer woke up with an expectant look on his face.
“Take me there.”
* * *
[Please wait here for a moment.]
Baal opened the space and leaped into space.
There was a planet in front of him.
A huge planet where countless people live and develop.
[Me too. They do all kinds of things.]
Baal muttered softly and headed towards the planet.
And at that moment, a huge condensation of power flew towards Baal.
It’s a concept of the universe. The enormous power of the one who controls itself.
Baal brought out the darkness.
A silent collision occurs. The concept of the universe and the forces that existed before the creation collide and twist together. Baal cuts off his hand.
[The greeting is harsh. Maria.]
[It has to be that way.]
A woman’s sonorous voice rings out.
[An old man who was stuck in the demon world and didn’t move suddenly appears in this area. Isn’t it inevitable that we will overreact here as well?]
God of choice. Maria.
She descended here. Maria activated her powers as if there was no need for conversation.
The concept of the universe chases Baal.
It’s an unreasonable choice. An unreasonable coercion that excludes all options for resistance and defense.
But it doesn’t work on Baal. Black energy gathers in his hands. It is the pure power of an old god, different from modern demonic power.
It explodes.
The concept of the universe is shaken. Mary’s power and Baal’s power clash and cancel each other out. Maria gathered her strength and shook off the demonic energy.
[Something like a monster.]
Maria clicks her tongue. She gathers her power again.
But Baal raises his hand.
[I have no intention of fighting. I’m just here to see the sights.]
[Tours?]
Maria burst out laughing at the completely unexpected words.
[This is the most unsuitable word for you. Those who despise us and try to tarnish us at any time.]
[I know it’s hard to believe.]
[No. I have no intention of believing it.]
Maria gathers her strength. Gathered there are all concepts that arose as a result of the universe’s choices.
Even if it is Baal, if it hits you directly, it is a collection of powers that will have to rest for a while.
‘Is persuasion really difficult?’
Baal clicked his tongue. In that case, he couldn’t help it either.
Baal raises his hand. Maria, who thought it was an attack, gathered more strength.
However, Baal’s subsequent actions simply exceeded her expectations.
[me. Great devil. I speak in the name and title of Baal.]
The power of Baal begins to surround and bind him.
[If things in the universe are polluted and polluted by me here, I will become subordinate to you.]
That is a declaration on one’s own behalf.
No matter how old a god he is, it is impossible to break it the moment it is given. Maria stopped converging power.
[If I defile you, I will become your slave.]
[…What.]
Maria was embarrassed.
[What on earth are you planning on doing?]
[I told you so. It’s just simple tourism. There is only one companion.]
Baal spread his arms.
[If they still refuse, I have no choice but to try my best to achieve my goal.]
[…]
Maria was worried. Is accepting Baal a benefit or a loss?
And the answer came. Maria opened her mouth.
[For now, I agree. But there is a condition. I will keep an eye on you while you are here.]
[If you really want that.]
Maria, who had been looking at him for a moment, disappeared.
I could no longer sense her presence, but I could tell that her gaze was directed at Baal.
[really. They do all kinds of things.]
Baal grumbled and landed on the planet. He arrived at a small forest overlooking a vast city.
[Then.]
Baal waves his hand. Space splits. Lucifer walks slowly from there.
“This is….”
[Planet in the universe. It is a city created by humans gathering together.]
“Hehe.”
Lucifer’s eyes lit up. Eyes full of curiosity and anticipation.
The moment Baal saw it, he became pure joy.
The conflict with Maria was completely forgotten. Baal bowed gracefully. He held out his arms like a servant.
[Then I will show you the way, princess.]
Lucifer grabbed Baal’s hand.
