    Episode 587

    Zeke looked at Lilith who was reaching out her hand towards him.

    On the outside she appears to be a pitiful girl asking for help but in reality she is a high-ranking demon with great power.

    Zeke who was never one to let his guard down against an opponent did not readily take her hand.

    ‘The nature of an arrogant savior.’

    It is true that Zeke attained godhood after absorbing the soul of the arrogant savior but he did not assimilate all of his memories.

    The Arrogant Savior was one of the first constellations closest to the primordial light and was the one whose memories had been passed down from the birth of this world.

    If Zeke who was fundamentally human despite having divine qualities were to accept all the memories of the arrogant savior his soul would not be able to endure it.

    That’s why most of his memories were buried deep in his subconscious.

    However as Zeke’s divinity grew the range he could handle expanded and the memories of the arrogant savior that had been locked were opened one by one.

    But as the release said the key memories that still touched the essence of the arrogant savior were locked.

    The problem was that in order to fully utilize the unique powers and domains of the Arrogant Savior Zeke had to fully understand this essence.

    ‘If I can realize the true nature of the arrogant savior through release I can make his power and domain completely mine.’

    To stand against the celestial constellations the power of an arrogant savior who had acquired the divinity to stand against them was essential.

    Zik hesitated for a moment then reached out his hand toward Lilith.

    Release looked at such a jiggle and his pupils shook.

    It was the kind of look that made it seem like the long-awaited moment had arrived.

    It was the moment when Lilith’s hand and Zeke’s hand were about to touch.

    “There’s one thing I’m curious about.”

    “Just before their hands touched Zeke looked at the release and said

    “Tell me who imprisoned you here.”

    Lilith hesitated for a moment at Zeke’s question.

    Then he slowly opened his mouth.

    “The being that imprisoned me here is… the arrogant savior.”

    At the end of the release Zigg furrowed his brows.

    The expectation that the other overlords had imprisoned her was wrong.

    He asked Lilith again.

    “Why was the first of the arrogant savior’s followers and incarnations who attained divinity imprisoned by him?”

    Lilith was at a loss for an answer to Zeke’s words but soon slowly opened her mouth.

    “Sir Zeke I was actually a long-time companion of the arrogant savior.”

    At her words Zeke looked surprised.

    It was quite hard to believe that the arrogant savior the greatest of the great demons would take one of his own followers as his companion.

    She continued speaking while looking at such a jiggle.

    “I also loved him deeply at one time… but after I learned the truth behind the lies that love turned to hatred.”

    “The truth behind the lies. Is this about the nature of the arrogant savior I mentioned earlier?”

    “Yes.”

    Zik hesitated for a moment then nodded.

    “Okay. I’ll try to believe you.”

    He immediately grabbed Lilith’s outstretched hand.

    Woof woof woof!

    A strong wave spread out from Zig’s hand that was holding the release.

    At the same time the chains that bound Lilith’s hands and feet shook violently.

    Clang! Clang!

    As the chain shook Lilith’s small body began to shake as well.

    At the same time Zeke’s eyes changed and he opened his mouth as if he was about to say something.

    But he didn’t make a sound and soon closed his eyes as if he had lost consciousness and froze in place.

    The look in Lilith’s eyes changed when he saw this.

    Tsk tsk tsk―

    Lilith’s hazy platinum eyes which had suddenly turned into bloodshot red smiled faintly as she looked at Zeke who was holding her hand with shining eyes.

    At the same time the chains that bound her hands and feet changed in appearance.

    Kkudd …

    The chains transformed into serpents with flickering tongues wrapping themselves around Lilith’s arms and legs.

    The snakes that had coiled around Lilith’s body climbed up Zeke’s wrist which was holding her hand and wrapped around his neck and his entire body.

    Release looked at Zig who was frozen while holding her hand with alluring eyes.

    “<Fair Guide of Pain> You are too naive to contain the soul of an arrogant savior. There is a saying in the Demon World that you should be most careful of children and the elderly but it seems you did not know that.”

    As Lilith rose from her bed her body began to change.

    She grew from a pitiful girl who looked like she might break at any moment into a charming woman in an instant.

    Release smiled down at him still holding Zeke’s hand.

    “Let me dream. Dream very deeply and seriously. In the meantime I will take what I have to take.”

    Release approached Zeke who was sitting on the chair lowered his body and slowly opened his mouth.

    Then the spirit energy flowed out of Zeke’s mouth and into Lilith’s mouth.

    The power contained in the soul of the arrogant savior as well as the divinity that Zigg had accumulated as a constellation were transferred to Lilith.

    “Haaaaaah…..”

    The release was a wonderfully high-quality drink that left me gasping in awe.

    ‘I can’t believe that humans have this kind of power. It’s beyond imagination.’

    This level of power was more than enough to break the seal that was binding him.

    At that moment butler Shamos who was watching from the side trembled.

    He glared at Lilith who was sucking Zeke’s energy with an expression that looked as if he was about to shed tears of blood.

    The release that followed made Shamos laugh.

    ―Shamos looks broken. Maybe you thought that Iza might become your new master and free you.

    Shamos bit his lips tightly and slowly lowered his head as he spoke.

    “My glorious master is none other than Lilith.”

    Lilith was the incarnation of the arrogant savior and a being who shared his soul and achieved divinity.

    When the arrogant savior ascended to the phenomenal world and Babel collapsed his followers who could not relocate had three choices.

    One is to die a heroic death like the Skeleton Captain Asmodeus.

    Another one is to become a servant of another great demon like a clear green wish.

    The last remaining one was to rely on Lilith who shared in the divinity of the arrogant savior.

    Although she was a release of a much lower rank than a constellation the arrogant savior’s followers who could neither die nor be subjugated by other demons had no choice but to bow their heads to her in order to survive and plan for the future.

    But the release was never easy.

    She enjoyed dark schemes to the extent that the constellation name she acquired when she attained divinity was <Twisted Temptation of Corruption>.

    Even as Babel was collapsing Lilith made an unjust pact with the arrogant savior’s followers and enslaved their souls to herself a relationship that continues to this day.

    Shamos clenched his fists as he watched Zigg being stripped of his soul power by Lilith.

    There was a brief hope that if he had become a great monarch while in a human body and had been acknowledged by the other great monarchs he might be able to break through their situation of being held captive by Lilith and imprisoned here unable to live or die.

    However Lilith was a being with a powerful power of fascination that could even seduce the great demons.

    That is why the arrogant savior also fell for her and later realized the danger and confined her to the castle.

    She tried to overcome the situation by absorbing his followers while confined in the castle after the collapse of Babel which sealed the arrogant savior in the phenomenal world but it was impossible to break the power of the arrogant savior.

    Then Mephistopheles the master of Pandemonium appeared and offered her a contract.

    It was a contract that would ensure the safety of her and her retinue by separating the castle into another dimension in exchange for using it as a meeting place for the overlords.

    Even if it was a release there was nothing he could do about Mephistopheles the devil of the contract.

    However Babel could not just collapse along with the others so Lilith had to accept the offer.

    The ‘Castle of Marduk’ once a symbol of Babel was reduced to an isolated prison.

    ‘I am leading the only hope of salvation into the pit of fire with my own hands.’

    Shamos had no choice but to bring Zeke here due to his pact with Lilith but in reality he wanted to reveal the truth to Zeke right away.

    All he could do was feel frustrated and despair as he watched Zeke being stripped of his divinity in vain by Lilith.

    -Okay this will do for now.

    Lilith raised her head and let out a voice rejoicing at the immense karma she felt within her body.

    “It is an amazing power. If I could absorb all of those human souls I could become a great monarch.”

    She tried to let go of Zeke’s hand smiling with satisfaction.

    But something was strange.

    Zeke was still holding his hand tightly.

    Release frowned and tried to shake off Zig’s hand.

    But it was as if my hands were stuck together and wouldn’t come off.

    Release frowned and twisted her body pulling away from Zeke’s hand that was holding hers.

    But then something completely unexpected happened.

    Woof woof woof!

    A strong vibration occurred in Lilith’s hand as she was caught by Zeke and a seal slowly rose from the back of her hand.

    The release of this book shocked me to the point where I almost fainted.

    “What the heck is going on…!”

    The Demon’s seal could be said to be a collection of information indicating its existence.

    Because it is a sign directly connected to the soul it is never revealed unless it is an important moment.

    But the seal of release rose on its own and even the double and triple layer security barriers began to be released on their own.

    “No! Stop it now!”

    As the geometric patterns emerging from the seal were released they began to transform into letters containing increasingly important information.

    Clang! Clang!

    The strings spread out so quickly that they filled the entire room in an instant.

    The release felt naked without a single thread attached.

    She screamed and tried to pull Zeke’s hand away but no matter what she did it was no use.

    In the midst of all those strings going back and forth a group of strings suddenly gathered in front of Zig.

    Wooooow!

    The letters and letters began to line up and form complete sentences.

    At the same time Zeke who had been closing his eyes opened them wide.

    A message appeared before his eyes.

    [You have successfully connected with the soul of the imperfect deity <Twisted Temptation of Corruption>.]

    [The interpretation of the soul in question has been completed.]

    [You have acquired the right to subjugate the soul and execute it forcibly through absolute dominance of power.]

    [Do you want to exercise the rights you have acquired?]

    A cruel smile appeared on Zeke’s face as he saw the floating message.

    Kugugugugugu!

    Nigel and Nabu met on a ferry and approached Storm Island.

    As the waves grew stronger Nabu opened the book he was holding.

    “Oh my god this fucking island is really hit!”

    Nabu screamed searching for a phrase that could calm the waves.

    “Uh-huh! Yes here it is! A high wave crashes down before me! But that strong spirit and determination split the rough waves and lead me along a calm path!”

    The story he spat out became a sermon and the waves of Storm Island split in half.

    As the path to the island was made Nigel spoke to Manna who was behind him.

    “Now is the time!”

    Manna took a pose of putting her hands together in prayer and created a barrier.

    A spherical barrier surrounded the entire boat and the boat began to move through the parted waves.

    Kookookookookook!

    Nabu was restless not knowing when the split waves would crash down again.

    “Meet! Faster! Let’s go quickly!”

    Despite the loud urging of the man he met he kept his composure and moved the boat.

    At that moment something rippled at the end of the parted waves.

    Wooooow!

    A portal had opened that would allow access into Storm Island.

    Nabu saw this and shouted.

    “Eww! There it is. Let’s go in there!”

    Then the split waves began to move again.

    Because it was a place where all kinds of energy were entangled even if you used a spell the effect did not last long.

    Nabu shouted towards Storm Island his teeth chattering.

    “Eww! Why are you doing this! This is really not right!”

    Nigel who was watching from the side let out a shallow sigh and then drew his sword.

    Then he went to the back of the ship and focused his energy on his sword.

    Kookookookookook!

    Her sword was filled with the energy of her soul.

    At the same time she thrust her sword toward the sea.

    An explosive aura shot out from the sword propelling the ship forward at incredible speed.

    Boooooooooooooo!

    Waves crashed along the ship’s path.

    “Eww!”

    The ship barely escaping the crashing waves with Nabu’s screams entered the portal.
