Regressor Instruction Manual

Chapter 480: You Should Be Punished (1)

The voice of Belial, which I finally heard despite the waves of disturbances from the heartless Elune trash and the incompetent Benignore, felt like it was cleansing my mind and body.

In fact, I was dubious about the entire thing.

Even though Jung Hayan, Kylie, Yale, Han Sora, and all of the unidentified helpers, whom I believed to have helped a lot, had dropped a demon on Amera, it was unlikely that it would be Belial.

That was even more so when I considered that the reason Belial was summoned in the first place was the influence of my magic power. It was just an assumption, but it was valid to think that Jung Hayan might have used something to create the same environment.

She might have borrowed my magic power, or brought the corresponding catalyst.

I didn’t know what it was, but what was important at that point was the fact that Belial, the overlord of all evils, had come down to our world.

He hadn’t shown his rigorous appearance yet, but it seemed like he knew where I was. That was to say, everything that had been completely engulfed in darkness was the realm of the Supreme Belial.

‘He’s seriously amazing.’

I had felt the power of a mythic-grade creature before, but I still felt awed by it.

Looking at half of the Federation completely covered in the darkness made me swallow hard.

He hadn’t even completely manifested in the present world, yet his power was already that intense.

The undead cleaning that Benignore showed when he came down was also worth applauding…

‘After all, Belial’s power is completely beyond the assumptions of this foolish mortal. I admire and appreciate the power of the ruler of all evil.‘

[Don’t I always say to keep your flattering words to yourself? It’s been a while… Long time no see.]

‘I have missed you so much, Belial.’

[I’ve missed you too, disgusting human. Missing someone doesn’t suit beings like us, but your disgusting soul reminds me of feelings I’ve long forgotten. I don’t know what to use as an example, though…]

‘The fact that the graceful Belial missed this lacking servant brings glory to me.’

[I said, stop with the flattering…]

‘Where are you, Belial? This dark energy that covers all the world makes me realize how helpless and shabby this mortal is and how supreme Belial truly is, but it only hurts me so much that I cannot see Belial’s great figure.’

[Stop…]

‘A deep voice like the deep sea makes this mortal’s heart beats whenever I hear it. I melt in Belial’s voice. I melt gently!’

[… I always think about you this way, but you’re a really disgusting human being. I can’t even feel a lie in your voice, and that even makes me feel more nauseous. Again, stop with the flattering. There’s no need for such unnecessary words between you and me. Don’t you have something you need?]

‘I would never do that. Of course, it doesn’t mean I don’t have anything I need at all, but… you don’t seem to be able to understand my true feelings. You’re breaking my heart.’

[I have never heard flattering as disgusting like yours in hell before while thinking about using me somehow in your head…]

‘It’s a misunderstanding, Belial. Why would I…’

[Enough. If I work with you, it will benefit me too anyway… Especially for the last job, it would be right to say thank you.]

‘What do you mean?’

[You don’t need to know the details.]

He said that, but I felt like I knew somehow.

Perhaps I must’ve helped extract negative emotions such as fear or anxiety from the people of the continent. Just as the gods on the other side fed on their faith, so did the demon lords.

Since the contract also raised the results, it could’ve been used to upgrade the ranks and powers that he had.

Belial, the supreme ruler of all evil, was able to produce a little more power than the last time. Even though the summoners’ efforts prepared the summoning a little more carefully, I could feel that the power of his body itself had risen.

[That is correct, you quick-witted human. Then you can see what I want.]

‘I think it’s probably the contract and the unexpected things that result from it. I think I can say that what I want is in line with what Belial wants. I’m so happy that Belial and I have a lot of interests in common again. By the way, the contract…’

[I did not sign a contract. That wizard human talent is quite excellent, but it is difficult to make a temporary contract without you… it would be proper to say that I only agreed with what she wanted. Thanks to that, the time I have in this world is shortened… but I don’t have any regrets.]

‘That’s because it’s not good to stay in this world for a long time.’

[Of course, it’s fun, but this is like a place for me to work. I can’t be happy staying here for too long. Now, enough with the useless talk. Say what you want.]

‘Ahem… ahem… I’m sorry to bring it up out of nowhere, but you told me to say what I want with your great voice. I shall do that without worry.’

[I hope it’s something fun.]

‘In fact, it is the same as last time.’

[What?]

‘To be clear, it’s not an individual that needs to be deceived this time, but the entire continent. I am cautious about affirming whether Belial will be satisfied, but personally, I think that you will feel the same pleasure as last time.’

[Is it…]

‘There’s still not enough to tell you everything, but…’

[I wonder what kind of trash you’re thinking about. I’m really curious.]

‘You can probably get enough of the results you want. Does the contract have to go through the black wizard like last time…’

[That isn’t necessary. A direct contract is impossible, but it seems like a temporary contract can be made. It looks like that stupid Benignore and the other gods couldn’t properly manage the continent. If hardliners had emerged on the continent, your position as humans would have been very excruciating.]

‘By hardliners, you mean…’

[Although you may have heard it roughly through Benignore, this continent is like a business site for beings like us.]

‘Business place…’

[I have found a suitable example in human expression. Us demons and the gods don’t describe this place as a place for business. However, what we do isn’t very different. They gain divinity through faith and manage the continent, and we get energy through emotions and contracts. In other words, we are all just sharing a business site. The demons that we call hardliners are the ones whose wish is to put this business site on the path of destruction.]

‘I-I see.’

[I can’t really say it’s not a stupid idea. In easier terms, this continent is a chicken that lays golden eggs. Hardliners are those who try to break the chicken’s belly…]

‘T-They are fools, then…’

It was a bit of a disrespectful thought, but it’s natural to think that those beings were no different from humans. Of course, there was a higher-level problem.

Our world was defined as a chicken that laid golden eggs or a business site, making it easy for me to understand. However, in the end, I had to think that the meaning was the same.

‘It will be a little stressful for them as well.’

It could be said that it was a situation where a business partner was throwing poop into the business. I didn’t know what the hardliners and moderates were exactly aiming for among the demons, but if I thought about it in simple terms, an answer came to my mind right away.

It was the management of the continent.

Whether it was caring for the continent or for humans, what was important to some of the moderate demons, including Belial, was to keep improving their performance.

They wouldn’t want the continent’s ruin. As he said, our place was a workplace for gods and demons.

‘It means that the continental bankruptcy case is not necessarily a welcoming situation for the demons.’

It might be a little different for hardliners.

As I pondered and recalled numerous memories, a voice entered my ears. It wasn’t Belial’s voice. What I heard was Jung Hayan’s voice, which sounded anxious for some reason.

It was interesting to see her look around as if she felt anxious for some reason.

That was the moment when what I’d assumed became clearer.

She realized that she couldn’t control Belial after summoning him to the world, causing him to think it was dangerous.

“Let’s go back, oppa.”

‘Why should I go back? If you want to go back, go alone, Hayan.’

“S-Something doesn’t feel good… Let’s head back quickly.”

She was pulling on my clothes while looking a little nervous. I could see her biting her lips tightly.

I thought it was understandable. Perhaps Jung Hayan knew that the place we were at was more dangerous than anywhere else.

I was thinking of looking around and leaving, but I, who didn’t know anything, wanted to go into the tiger’s den. In fact, since I was constantly walking through dangerous places voluntarily, it wasn’t unreasonable to be frustrated.

As I looked at her, I could see her slowly looking around.

‘Okay… so, you won’t confess, right?’

“The o-others will also be worried. Then, let’s go back. T-t-the rescue team will come soon anyway.”

“Still.”

“L-Let’s go quickly.”

‘How dare you glare at me?’

“Wait a minute…”

“We have to go quickly!!”

‘Hey, you don’t like me, right?’

[Didn’t I say that I do?]

‘I wasn’t thinking about B-Belial.’

[I know that much. It’s just a joke, so you don’t have to be so nervous. Then, I would like to share some constructive stories at this point…]

‘Me too, Belial.’

[I think I know what I roughly want, but is it really okay to proceed like that? I don’t care, but I’m worried that the stupid Benignore’s power will become dull.]

‘You don’t have to worry about the business of great beings collapsing. It’s pretty hard to give a definite answer, but this opportunity may bring the continent back to its original state if I’m lucky. Being humans by nature means that the more desperate you are, the more you will seek God. Belial only needs to show his supreme power to foolish humans. It would be better to use me, the symbol of Benignore’s Second Coming… That will be a convenient way…’

[That means…]

‘The first request comes to the ruler of all evil, from this lacking servant. First, please kidnap me from here.’

[Fu… Fuhuhu… You’re a really disgusting human. Am I not suspicious? I might hurt you…]

‘Isn’t this a contract between Belial and I?’

[Right! You’re right. It’s between you and me. It must be a possible request. Fu… huhu… okay. I’ll play along with you once more.]

‘I will give overwhelming gratitude. Thank you. I send you overwhelming thanks! Thank you so much. Long live Belial!’

[Prepare.]

That was it.

I began to feel the pressure that made me difficult to breathe.

‘What is this? Fuck…’

Of course, Jung Hayan felt more flustered than me. Not only did her face become bluish, but her whole body was moist with sweat.

“L-L-Let’s run away.”

“What?”

“Q… Quickly.”

“What the hell… what…”

“R… Run away!!! Quickly!!! Run as quickly as you can!!!”

The situation had begun to become tense.

It could be a bit of a cruel time for Jung Hayan, but it was definitely necessary.
