Bab 225: Episode 42 - Asmodeus (5)

"Betapa lucunya. Aku bahkan belum menjadi 'raja iblis'. Bagaimana saya bisa memberikan taruhan dalam cerita raksasa yang tidak saya miliki?”

"Kamu bisa melakukannya jika aku membantu." Asmodeus memiliki kepercayaan diri yang arogan di wajahnya. Itu adalah ekspresi yang membuat menjadi 'raja iblis' menjadi sederhana. Saya memperhatikan wajahnya dan menindaklanjuti dengan,

“…Oke, aku akan memberikan saham jika aku menjadi raja iblis.”

Pada saat ini, bintang-bintang di langit berkedip.

[Beberapa rasi bintang sangat kecewa dengan penilaian Anda.]

[Rasi bintang 'Tahanan Ikat Kepala Emas' menatapmu dengan mata bermasalah.]

[Rasi bintang yang suka berganti jenis kelamin ingin mengubah jenis kelamin Anda.]

Rasi bintang menunjukkan reaksi yang kuat seperti yang saya harapkan. Namun, saya tidak bisa menahannya untuk saat ini. Kecuali saya tahu bagaimana tidak kalah melawan Asmodeus, saya tidak bisa melakukan apa pun yang akan memusuhi dia.

Asmodeus tertawa seolah dia puas dengan jawabanku. "Pemikiran yang bagus. Berapa banyak yang akan kamu berikan?”

“30%.”

Kekecewaan ringan melintas di wajah Asmodeus. “Itu terlalu sedikit.”

"Tidakkah kamu pikir kamu terlalu serakah?"

"50% dan tulis kontraknya di sini."

Sungguh penipu yang tidak tahu malu. Jika saya memberikan setengah dari cerita raksasa, saya tidak akan bisa memanfaatkan kekuatannya tanpa izin Asmodeus. Aku menggelengkan kepalaku dengan kuat. "Saya tidak bisa menandatangani perjanjian itu."

"Mengapa?"

The pebbles started to float into the air. This was blatant intimidation but I wouldn’t have come here if I would be caught by such intimidation. I stared up at the sky and kept speaking, “I won’t give a stake to just you.”

A deep silence instantly fell at my words. Asmodeus’ face was blank and he didn’t understand what I meant. The stars all around me were holding their breaths and demanding clarification.

“30% of the giant story will be released as competitive shares.”

“…Competitive shares?”

“It means whoever helps me can gain part of those shares. The extent that they obtained will depend entirely on their contribution to the story.”

The gazes staring at me from the sky started to change on by one.

[The constellation ‘Prisoner of the Golden Headband’ is making a interested expression.]

[A few constellations are greedy after hearing your words!]

‘Competitive shares’ was the last card I could offer. If I had to take a beast with me while moving forward, it would be better to expand the choice of beasts. Asmodeus noticed my intentions and his expression hardened. “…I was deceived.”

“I didn’t lie.”

The pebbles floating in the air rushed towards me, to be precise, towards Yoo Jonghyuk. It was a strong attack that couldn’t be easily blocked. It might’ve been hard for me in the past but not now.

It was because now I wasn’t alone. The stones flying through the air were caught by invisible hands.

[A few constellations are staring at the Demon King of Fury and Lust.]

It was a situation where I declared a competitive share in a giant story. The constellations aiming for those shares wouldn’t just watch Asmodeus’ actions. Asmodeus gritted his teeth. However, even Asmodeus didn’t want to waste probability in this place against a large number of constellations. In addition, there was a formidable constellation present.
