The Goddess Of War

Chapter 269 - Azazel

"From what I've noticed, you guys really like power. You create human networks and use them to expand the power you already have. That's why I can find you." Miyuki said with a smile.

An extremely evil smile, even as Cao Ming Ren who was a demon judged it.

Cao Ming Ren was a little surprised because what Miyuki said was entirely true. They thirst for position, honor, recognition and want to be glorified. This is why they love to live among humans. They have power. People will follow them when they give them what they want.

But, that also made Miyuki able to find the trace of one of the stray angels who was currently in front of her.

•••

"What are you doing? Attack her!" cao Ming Ren commands the masked man who stands stiffly when he recognizes who the teenage girl who just entered the room is.

The masked man knew, if he dared to move recklessly, he would definitely die just like Fred Watson who did not even know when his head was taken by the girl.

Cao Ming Ren knew that as well. He only needed a masked man to buy time until the new gate he opened just below his feet was enough to hold himself in order to escape.

°°°

Cao Ming Ren was shocked when he saw the masked man not following his orders. The masked man instead raised both hands high, hinting that he would rather choose to give up.

"You...!"

Seeing that, Cao Ming Ren did not run out of sense. He then attacked Wang Sin Long by casting an extremely powerful magic at the man, to distract Miyuki.

However, at the same time, Miyuki had instead moved right behind her and thrust the tanto in her hand three times into Cao Ming Ren's waist.

Stabs... Stabs... Stab...!

"Thanks...!"

"You can't run anymore. You already know my abilities, right? You were one of the 2 demons that saw my fight against 3 of your comrades from afar."

Cao Ming Ren of course knew that. He knew that Miyuki had left a mark on him. Wherever he went, he would return to the girl instantly, whenever the girl wanted to.

One of the things that made Cao Ming Ren shocked was when he saw the bluish thin smoke that was now wrapping around Wang Sin Long's body. It was the protector Miyuki had made to protect the man from her magic attack.

'That magic... Truly belonging to the supreme angel Lorelei...'

"Sit back." Miyuki's orders in a cold tone to Cao Ming Ren.

Helpless again, the middle-aged man finally sat back in his seat and canceled the opening of the gate.

'Damn, he's really fast. How can there be a human being as fast as he is?'

Miyuki turned to the masked man who was still standing with great trembling while still raising his hands high.

"You know, right, that I'm going to hunt down all the demons that cause those Dungeon gates to appear?"

"Y-yeah," said the masked man, recalling that Miyuki once made the announcement very clear through the WABC live broadcast.

"Did you know he was a demon?"

"S-I don't know."

"Well. Now you know he's the devil, because he's my quarry."

"Y-yes... Miss Nakano."

"You're sure you didn't know he was a demon?"

"S-I really don't know, miss Nakano..," said the masked man who almost cried just by hearing the cold threatening tone of Miyuki's voice, especially at her extremely frightening magic aura.

Twenty years he has been practicing. It had been hundreds of Dungeons that he had entered in order to gain his strength before he was granted instant power by Cao Ming Ren.

He no longer knew what fear was. But, being around Miyuki, the masked man finally knew what fear was.

Miyuki's extremely intimidating magic aura made her shiver in horror. That magic aura came from the core of Mana Lorelei, the highest angel in this galaxy. The intimidating aura that the god Arnix gave to his angels was at the level of their caste.

No one could resist that magic aura, except for a figure who had a magic aura higher than him, namely the children of Arnix's own god family, Ana, Ann, Erv and Lyn.

Therefore, Astareth, Astaroth and Mammon, were terrified when they met Miyuki.

The same thing happened to Cao Ming Ren, whose real name was Azazel. If not for that extremely intimidating magic aura, he would have already been able to open the magic gate quickly and escape.

°°°

Even so, Miyuki was actually unaware of it. He simply spread his magic aura to scare them without knowing that his magic aura had power that could intimidate a lost angel who had a lower caste than the original owner of his Mana core.

°°°

"You also sit down" Miyuki said, sliding the chair near the masked man's feet with her telekinesis power.

Miyuki then walked around the table then sat down on the chair that was on the other side of the table opposite Cao Ming Ren and the masked man.

He also asked Wang Sin Long to sit next to him before finally starting his questions which he asked Cao Ming Ren.

"I'm a little curious. What's your real name?" miyuki asked as she looked at Cao Ming Ren.

"Azazel's."

Miyuki nodded slowly while the masked man and Sin Long styled Cao Ming Ren with a frown.

"Are you the same demon that was in that mythical story?" ask Miyuki again.

Cao Ming Ren nodded.

"Is the other demons that are in those stories also real? Are they your friends?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"Three demons that I killed back then. Who're they?"

"Astaroth, Astareth and Mammon."

"So, were you angels? Angels that have fallen for breaking the creator's orders like the ones in those mythical stories?"

Azazel nodded slowly. Although he did not like the phrase 'falling angel', but he did not dare to interrupt it.

He knew Miyuki was cruel. Just as cruel as the original demons they were now serving. It could be that the human in front of him was angry and cut off his neck. If he dies, his spirit will be sent into nothingness. He will never get back up.

"Is it true that you betrayed the creator for wanting a higher power?"

Azazel nodded again. His face is now starting to blush. Although he was afraid, of course he did not like himself being interrogated by a human.

"Then you tell me." Miyuki.

Azazel who had previously lowered his head, immediately looked up as he was somewhat confused by the order.

"News?"

"Yes. Aren't you happy to tell a story? From what I've read about you, you like to tell me everything about the truth of the 'top' world, right? Just story. We'll listen to you."

"W-what?"

"..."

"Are you going to let me go if I tell you everything?"

"No. I'll kill you after."

Glup...

Knowing that, Azazel fell silent without a word.

Wang Sin Long and the masked man looked at Miyuki with a horrified feeling.

If the sentence did not come out of Miyuki's mouth, they probably wouldn't have trusted such a strange threat too much. But, they know who Miyuki is. He will do what he has said.

"You... Then why would I tell you if in the end you're going to kill me?!" azazel.

"Well let me allow you to say your last words. You like to tell stories, don't you?" Miyuki pointed at the masked man and Wang Sin Long. "There are three people here who will be your listeners."

"You think..."

"The longer and the more you tell the better. I'll listen to you until it's over. That way, you're gonna buy your death time, right?"

Azazel. Both of his eyes widened, looking at Miyuki in disbelief.

'He's very confident.'

"Ah, I forgot to say this. You can also sign and call all your friends as long as you talk. How many are left? A ten? Twenty? Call them all. Maybe you'll have a chance of survival if you gang up on me, right?"

It was not only Azazel who was shocked to hear it. The masked man and Wang Sin Long even experienced shortness of breath.

"You're really a psychopath!" as Azazel was angry.

Azazel's anger made Miyuki laugh.
