Chapter 317: In the Name of Light (2)

“You can do it, right?”

“I-I can, but…I haven’t tried… it yet…”

“Let’s try it. Because the more supplies you have, the better.”

She looked like she wanted to ask what the hell I’m talking about right now.

Of course, she could be perplexed.

In the first place, I had blocked the Black Wizard Han Sora from signing a contract because the information on the demons that could actually be summoned was very limited.

However, this was something that needs to be done.

This process was necessary for a more detailed plan. The first reason was that I felt the black magic energy from the magic that fell today.

There were many other reasons, but I didn’t have time to explain them individually. We should move as fast as we can now.

“But right now…”

“It’s okay. Hayan can lend the magic power, and this place will take care of all the arrangements. You just need to lend your body. Instead, I’ll make sure that you get a reward afterward. Depending on the case, I could send you out to another area…”

Of course, I didn’t intend to send her out, but I could see her eyes were open, biting the bait.

“I-I’ll do it!”

“I can’t promise you exactly when, but I’ll try to move in the direction you want. And about summoning…”

“There was so little information that I didn’t have enough time to study. I think it would be okay with Jung Hayan’s magic power… I was worried about whether I could do it… so I think maybe an intermediate or advanced demon will be summoned…”

“I don’t know how strong intermediate and advanced demons are, but it must be an entity that can do the magic that fell in the city today.”

“An entity that can do that much… It doesn’t seem to be common even among demons… but I will try.”

Seeing her burn her heart with hope at the bait of transfer, it seemed that she really didn’t want to be with Jung Hayan.

Jung Hayan was clenching her fist as if she was determined to make up for her previous mistake, but it seemed she had a rough idea of what my plan would be, without me explaining.

“How far did you go?”

“There are still some left. I think there will be enough time, Oppa.”

“So let’s start right away. Sora, do you need any other summoner or anything else?”

“No. I don’t. I heard that each demon has a slightly different summoning method, and some entities can be summoned with only magic power. In severe cases, you may have to meet ridiculous conditions, but… magic power is enough for now.”

“Well, I’m glad if it doesn’t matter, but… I think it’s better to start. We don’t have time to hesitate. Let’s start right now.”

“Okay.”

After I talked, Han Sora headed to the center of the magic circle in a hurry.

The same went for Jung Hayan.

As before, there wasn’t a magical storm like raging billows, but significant magical power had gathered in an instant.

I could see the magic power pouring into Han Sora through the magic circle.

Han Sora’s continuous mumbling and chanting the spell was a spectacular sight. As a once talented student, she had no distraction in chanting the spell.

‘I guess she will succeed.’

However, I could see that the magic circle was gradually losing its light.

This was not a good sign.

As if she recalled the possibility that the summoning would fail, Jung Hayan pushed in her magic again, and Han Sora also opened her mouth with a slightly louder voice.

I had to do something here, too.

I didn’t know if it will help her, but the moment I pushed my weak magic power into her magic circle, a black glow began to emit from where Han Sora was standing.

The cave reverberated with a crackling sound, and all the magic that had glowed brightly until now were all turned black.

Black light sounded ridiculous, but what I could see now was black light.

‘What the.’

Naturally, I was flustered because I felt a wave of magic power bigger than I had imagined.

Eventually, when the light brought me to the point where I couldn’t even open my eyes properly, I could see that there was something beyond description in front of me.

‘What’s that again?’

[Belial, the devil of falsehood and incitement (Mythic)]

[One of the 72 Demon Lords]

[???]

‘Why did something like that come out…’

Looking down, floating in the air, was a monster with an indescribable appearance.

Han Sora was staring as if she couldn’t believe the outcome she had achieved, but I could see her swaying as if because of the aftereffect of the subpoena ceremony done with a weak body.

-It’s fun.

It was not fun at all. Just a glance at it seemed to overwhelm me.

Nevertheless, it exuded such a presence that even I felt bewildered.

His low tone of voice felt like it was shaking my brain.

He didn’t seem stronger than the demon with seven weapons and large horns or the Fragment of Ancient God from the museum, but he was also a superior entity that I could not bear to look at.

‘It’s mythic-grade.’

-It’s amusing. How could you bring this body over here? It wouldn’t be the influence of this magic circle, and there would have been insufficient sacrifices to meet the conditions for summoning me… Unfortunately, this method of summoning violates the terms of the contract. This black wizard is too small to hold me… and it didn’t even meet all the conditions.

It just so happened that a slightly stronger one came out.

Nothing changed.

As soon as I inhaled as much air as possible, I started to feel that I was stabilizing.

Han Sora was still holding her head, and the aftereffect of summoning him was probably quite large.

I didn’t know if it was right to do it here, but it was only right to talk to him.

I was running out of time.

“T-Thank you very much for answering the call.”

-So, it’s you.

He was looking straight at me.

It didn’t need to be said that I wanted to prostrate myself in case I did something wrong.

“What do you mean…?”

-It’s you, Mortal. Your disgusting magic power brought me here.

“I’m sorry?”

-It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a human with a wavelength that matches so well with me. It is a pity that a human with such aptitudes does not walk this path. Hmm… Anyway, since I came to this world like this, tell me what you want. A direct contract is not possible, but there must be a reason for summoning me, so I’ll listen. Yes. You can think of it as a commemoration of meeting someone with the right wavelength after a long time.

‘Things are going better than I thought.’

I didn’t know about the magic power wavelength, its propensity, and what it was but the fact that he was friendly to me is good.

Of course, considering that he was wearing the mask of a devil of falsehood and incitement, I was worried about whether he would backstab me with a smile, but a demon could not harm his summoner.

At least, those who were not the upper demons couldn’t.

Of course, I didn’t know what the mythic-grade creatures with the strength to resist some part of the system will be, but doubting him did not make a difference.

-I like that you have a lot of doubt. I haven’t seen a disgusting human like you for a long time.

‘Is that a compliment or a curse? Fuck.’

-But there is no need to doubt, mortal. You are valuable ones. It’s not common to summon one of the 72 Demon Lords. The vessel that summoned me also has room for further growth and has been blessed with magic power. Of course, the disgusting human with better eyes than us. The same goes for you. If you don’t like the indirect contract, I would recommend summoning others, but considering the vessel’s condition, it seems hard to summon again… If this is something I can easily help you with, I will. You guys have no idea, but this is also an achievement.

“What do you mean, an achievement?”

-Well, it’s something you don’t need to know. It will be easier to think that being able to gain a contract is something good for us as well. It’s such a shame. If you had had a direct contract with me, you would have been able to get a direct contract after a very long time among our 72 lords… Well, enough with the small talk. It’s better to read the contract first. It’s an indirect contract, but a contract is a contract.

“…Thank you.”

-It’s not enough, but let’s settle the price with the magic that summoned me. Of course, it includes the pleasure I will feel in this work. Please, I wish it was something that would entertain me…

It was in an instant that a black contract was created in front of me.

I think it was safe to say that it was an inherent power of demons.

I didn’t know where and how they were living, but it didn’t seem like they lived happily in the inferno like I was thinking. The contract had its own system.

There were also no clauses that would be a problem.

‘I guess it looks good.’

I was doubtful, but I realized he spoke the truth.

The devil who occupied one of the 72 Demon Lords was favorable to me.

However, it was the Black Wizard Han Sora who had to sign the contract. At this point, I think it wouldn’t have been bad even if I had been a black wizard.

‘Such a shame.’

If I had chosen to be a black wizard, I would have really a chance to make a direct contract with him.

No, perhaps in the first round, where I chose to be a black wizard, I could have really signed a contract.

For now, the best I could do was to look at the contract carefully.

I could see Han Sora, who still did not seem well, glancing at me.

No wonder I nodded, looking at her like that. I expressed that there was no problem with the contract.

She looked suspicious, but Han Sora also began to nod her head in a positive light.

– This is a special case, so I’ll take all three of you as contractors. Of course, the contractor had to be limited to a vessel, but she couldn’t have brought me in alone.

“Thank you very much for your consideration, Belial.”

-No need to flatter me, disgusting human. Hahahaha. Instead, say what you want quickly. I don’t know the circumstances, but you called me because you wanted something, right?

Of course, I do.

As I nodded quickly, he also nodded his head.

“It’s something very simple for you, Belial-nim.”

-Tell me.

“I want you to fool some humans. That’s all.”

I could see the demon smiling, as if it was a really pleasing request.

-That’s a pleasant request, disgusting human.

‘Devil Summoner, Jin Qing!’

It was right to eradicate such darkness on the continent.

And it would all be in the name of light.
