'Natural aphrodisiac? What the hell does he an by that?! If it's not his doing and he hasn't used a domain technique… then where is this coming from? The cave…? The mountain? Or… the forest itself? There is only one way to find out.'
Zach placed Asmodeus on the ground and covered her with his body. Then, he used his skill— Deus' Authority and obliterated the entire mountain and his surroundings.
The explosion was so big that it created an earthquake that woke up all the monsters and animals sleeping in the forest and the mountain caves surrounding it.
He looked at Asmodeus to make sure she was alright and sighed in relief.
"Heh, Asshole was talking so big. Kind of sucks that I couldn't kill him slowly, but now that he's taken care of, no need to worry about anything."
Zach united Asmodues' hands and leaned on the debris of the mountain.
"Fuuuuck! That was so stressful." He took a deep breath and closed his eyes to relax, only to open them again when he felt sothing soft against his lips.
Asmodeus was kissing Zach passionately on the lips.
"...!"
Zach pushed her back and covered his mouth.
"What the fuck?!"
"Why are you pushing away? Isn't that why you untied so we could have fun?"
"No!"
'Why is she still under the aphrodisiac effect?'
[Why would you destroy the mountain?] the voice asked.
The debris moved and ford a face with two eyes and a mouth.
"..."
[Did you think the mountain was causing the effect?] The mouth moved as the voice spoke. [You could have asked , at least. I would have replied to you honestly. The mountains worked as a barrier for the people, separating a city and this forest.
Now that you have destroyed it, the monsters will attack the city all the ti. Oh, my, oh… what have you done?]
"What are you?" Zach asked calmly. "I am tired of your gas. Ever since I entered hell, all I have been doing is fighting."
[That's the life of a warrior, an adventurer.]
"Answer my damn question."
[I am not one of the general lords of the demon lord. I am the hell itself.]
"...what?"
[I am the hell. And the general lords were my children, except the water spirit. As you might have noticed, they were based on nature.]
"What about the pet everyone is talking about?"
[That would be .]
"So the hell is the demon lord's pet? You have no self-respect that you submitted to a tyrant?"
[Each hell has its own unique contract with its ruler— the demon lord. They protect hell, and hell protects them. You are here to kill the demon lord, so as per the contract, I will have to save him.]
"That shitbag is killing the citizens of hell! He is kidnapping won and killing children! How could you let him do sothing so disgusting and despicable on your land?!"
[Is that why you want to kill him? Or do you want to kill him for your personal grudge? Perhaps the one that has sothing to do with the attack on the mortal realm-like world?]
"So what? That changes nothing! That asshat deserves to die, and you can't stop !"
[I don't have to. You are in no condition to move forward. I am hell, and I can control what happens in it. I can turn the water into lava and the food into ashes. I can seize the air and kill everyone. Can you do sothing like that?]
"You won't be able to do that if I kill you."
[You do possess the power to annihilate a world, but you don't know how to. If you kill , the hell would be destroyed, including everyone in it. You will kill hundreds of millions, including the won and the children you spoke of.]
"..."
[Now, tell , son of Deus. Who is more despicable, you or Nirn— the demon lord?]
"You know my father?" Zach raised a brow.
[Of course. He is a legend. Who doesn't know him? In fact, the person I spoke of earlier— who mastered all the domain techniques— was none other than your father.]
"I usually hate it when soone acknowledges through my father, but not today. How about we forget what happened today and act like we never ran into each other. Let kill Nirn, and I will leave."
[That I can't do. What I can do is give you a chance to retreat. Usually, I would kill all the challengers, but consider it a favor that I am letting you go. Return to the world you ca from and never co back. Mind your own business— as the mortals would say.]
"..."
[What do you say? Do we have a deal?]
"There is no way I am retreating after coming so far! What about my revenge?"
The face narrowed its eyes and asked, [Is everything about revenge for you?]
"Yes!" Zach shouted. "Everything is about revenge! I want to take revenge on Nirn because he tried to kill my loved ones! I want to take revenge on that Overlord because he killed my friend. I want to take revenge on Icarus— the sun god because he tried to kill my family. I want to take revenge on the gods because they trapped my loved ones in a death ga!
So if you want to know if I exist for revenge, then yes… I do! Revenge is my fuel and my motivation. Earlier, you asked if I would kill you and all the people in hell to kill Nirn…. My answer is yes.
I will ask you for one last ti. Step back and let kill Nirn, or I will destroy hell. What would hell be if no one is living in it?"
[...what will you do once you have killed Nirn? The Hell's Throne can't be vacant. Soone has to sit on it and beco the new ruler. What is the guarantee that the next ruler wouldn't be the sa, if not worse than Nirn?]
