In a large, darkened cavity, larger than any sports field, with no ceiling visible above, I silently approached the 'something' at the end of it.

"......."

Surrounded by thick, white tentacles, a figure about the size of a five-year-old child sat in the center.

The only difference was that it was black all over. His face and body were indistinguishably black.

That thing was so dangerous that the heroes of old had to create such a huge space to seal it away.

One of the Sun God's creatures, the Wish Granter.

"..."

He didn't look all that intimidating, but I knew that the power he possessed was beyond imagination.

Unlike mere mortals, who are merely endowed with the power of the gods, he is a creature created by the Sun God himself.

As such, his powers are divine. He has the power to change cause and effect, to alter the course of events.

However, he has a major limitation. He can only use his power when someone else pays him to make a wish, and he grants that wish.

But even then, his power was transcendent. If the price was high enough, he could grant any wish: to destroy a nation, to make himself rich, to resurrect the dead.

However the price is very hard to meet and the problem is that the wishes are granted in the strangest of ways.

With that thought in mind, I walked on until I was within a few feet of him.

I stop in my tracks and see a small black child sitting in front of me.

Its entire body was immersed in deep darkness, except for its mouth, which was white and smiling.

And when I looked closer, I saw a small black seal that looked even more disturbing, and thick white tentacles surrounding it.

In the middle of it all, it finally opened its mouth.

"...The first human I've seen in a long time."

The voice that came out of the white mouth was like a small boy's laughter, or maybe it was the sound of a crackling machine.

Whatever it was, it was a bizarre, reluctant voice unlike anything I had ever heard before.

As if it were speaking directly into my ears, I nodded and opened my mouth to speak.

"...Greetings, Wish Granter (votum implens)."

"....."

In response to my words, it smiled wordlessly.

Looking at him, I thought about his characterization once more.

The Wish Granter grants wishes in exchange for a price.

However, the wishes are very wrong. He grants wishes in a way that makes the maximum number of people, including the person making the wish, as unhappy as possible.

If you make a wish to make yourself rich, he will kill all of your blood relatives and make you rich through inheritance.

If you wish to resurrect someone who is already dead, he will resurrect them with a curse on them, dooming you both.

The bigger the wish, the more people he entangles, and the more he can bring about the destruction of nations and even the world.

He's been granting wishes for decades, tearing the world apart, and it took the sacrifices of heroes to finally catch him.
