      Warrior(1)

      by ElectroWraith2365 Where Did It All Go Wrong? When exactly did I start making the wrong choices? I don’t know. No matter how much I think about it, I just don’t know. I saved the villagers who suffered at the hands of the monstrous fiends and defeated the bandits that ran rampant. I was nearly deceived by the king’s honeyed words and became a part of a coup d'état that massacred innocent people. But in the end, I realized the truth, turned my blade, and overthrew the king. "It was all the right thing to…

      Girl

      by ElectroWraith2365 "O, Ooh... Oh, demon, please grant me strength." "Strength, you say..." "Yes, grant me strength! I am willing to offer my soul in exchange without hesitation...!" Why is it that the majority of people who make wishes to demons are always like this? In modern times, when someone becomes exceptionally skilled at something, people jokingly say, "They must have sold their soul to the devil." But in this world, demons actually exist. That means that in Noah’s world, those who make wishes to…

      Hierarchy(4)

      by ElectroWraith2365 "How are you feeling? Do you have any confusion regarding your memory, personality, or sense of self?" "No issues. I feel as if nothing ever happened to me in the first place." That wasn't a lie. Since Aigokeros had become my servant through the master-servant contract, the very concept of lying to their master had disappeared. That meant Aigokeros was simply stating exactly what they felt. It was my first time trying brainwashing, and it seemed to have worked well. ‘Ugh, I’m never doing…

      Hierarchy(3)

      by ElectroWraith2365 ‘Ugh...’ Lucia holding me back as I leave is something I’ve experienced dozens of times, yet it still feels unfamiliar. Lucia being sad, my fear of something happening to her when I’m not around—none of it ever gets easier. If I don’t leave, Lucia’s mana overload will never heal, so this is something I must do... but still. ‘I'm especially scared that Lucia might get hurt when I'm not there.’ Even though Nero is by her side to keep her company, Nero is just a cat—he…

      Hierarchy(2)

      by ElectroWraith2365 I created Faust, but even so, I didn’t know much about Faust. No, strictly speaking, could I even say I created him when all I did was establish the basic setting? I only knew the rough foundational setting that I had hastily put together to procrastinate on my work. Beyond that, I knew nothing. That didn’t change even when I became Faust. At times, memories of what had happened to Faust in this world—not the Faust from the game—would flash through my mind like a revolving lantern.…

      Hierarchy(1)

      by ElectroWraith2365 '...He’s gone.' Aigokeros stood blankly in Faust’s now-empty room, trying to grasp the situation. What on earth just happened? Faust—or rather, my master—isn’t a demon by birth, so I assumed he wouldn’t know how demons live. That’s why I thought he was asking me such basic questions. But… I was wrong. My master used the same magic that other demons use when responding to summons and moved to the soul merchant’s location. He did it so naturally, so skillfully. '…Now…

      Raid(2)

      by ElectroWraith2365 "Huh...?" Why is it fine? This thing is emitting the exact same magical energy as the only remaining remnant of the demon in this continent, so I thought it must be the culprit that monopolized the soul. So, I decided to fix its arrogance by throwing every possible attack at it... but it's not just unharmed—there isn’t even a single scratch. The magic I sensed was just that of an ordinary demon... but, uh... "Kyaaah!!" "A demon!!" "Everyone, run!!" The noisy little insects are…

      Raid(1)

      by ElectroWraith2365 "Munch, munch..." '...She really eats well.' I'm not particularly skilled at cooking, but since it's just a simple sandwich with soft bread and ingredients stuffed inside, it doesn't seem to make much of a difference. Thinking back to when I used to mess up the water and heat control while making baby food and had to throw away several batches, this moment feels truly emotional. Feeding her sandwiches all the time might not be ideal... but sandwiches contain all the necessary nutrients—carbs,…

      Church(6)

      by ElectroWraith2365 “…But if I go back like this, I’ll lose my voice in the church. No matter how much I scream not to enter Montpelio for the time being, the high priests of the church won’t even pretend to listen.” “Do I look like someone who would be afraid of that?” “Of course not. But the condition of the contract was to stop the church from coming until the demonic energy is expelled from the city’s residents, wasn’t it?” I had used the contract as an excuse to dump all the troublesome…

      Church(5)

      by ElectroWraith2365 They hadn't expected the demon to be strong, so they hadn’t brought their full force. Still, since they were dealing with a demon, they had assembled an elite team of exorcist priests. But what in the world is happening? "Aaaahhh!!" "Help, help me!!" "Our brothers are trapped in fear! How’s the mental protection going?!" "We're doing our best right now!" They were being slaughtered by the demon as if they were nothing more than fallen leaves swept away by the wind. No effort, no…
