Inertia
Wearing earplugs, the Demon King subjugation team steps into the dungeon where the stampede is occurring.
Well, even though I'm saying that it's a Demon King subjugation, I don't think the Demon King has been born yet.
"I think Mephistopheles was planning to use the souls he worked so hard to collect to create a Demon King!"
Shiro reads my mind and explains it to me.
"So they were hunting souls with Death Scythe!"
"The basics of demon summoning are the amount of mana and the number of human souls!
Depending on the amount, the level of the devil that can be summoned is determined!
In order to incarnate a bigger devil from hell into this world, a huge amount of mana and human souls are required!"
"Hmm? A devil? Wasn't he supposed to give birth to a Demon King?"
I ask a question.
"If you were just going to give birth to a Demon King, you wouldn’t go to the trouble of hunting souls in a dungeon!
If a lot of monsters and people die in a dungeon, a lot of magic essence will accumulate in the last boss room at the bottom of the dungeon, and the dungeon will spawn a Demon King on its own!"
"So, Mephistopheles and the others were collecting souls in order to summon a devil?"
"They were collecting souls for the birth of the Demon King and summoning a devil at the same time!
And, for starters, to make the Demon King's body the devil's vessel.''
"What was that!"
For some reason, Anastasia was more surprised than me.
"They have already surpassed the problem that Anastasia-san had and moved on to a higher stage."
Shiro answered calmly.
"The mere appearance of a devil from another world is unexpected, but to summon a devil using the newly born Demon King as a vessel... what on earth is Merlin planning to do...?"
"I think it has already surpassed Merlin-san’s expectations!
When Merlin-san summoned Mephistopheles.''
Shiro explains to Anastasia in a calm tone.
"Does this mean that the witch Merlin has summoned a devil from another world whose power exceeds hers?"
I asked Shiro instead of Anastasia, who was deep in thought.
"That's right! She released all the souls she had accumulated with the Sacred Treasure Death Scythe all at once!
Sacred treasures have nothing to do with space, time, or return after death. Death Scythe has absorbed Master's good soul many times!"
"Is it because I returned from death?"
"Blackbeard can't summon two devils from another world at the same time with just the souls of the humans he killed with the Death Scythe!"
The blood drained from Anastasia's face and she turned pale.
Well, it's understandable since this hopeless situation was created because of the [Founder's Ring] that she had prepared to deal with the Demon King.
"Mephistopheles is no match for Father, but he is a very high-ranking devil.
And I think the initiative is already completely in Mephistopheles' hands!"
Father-con Shiro once again emphasizes that Mephisto is inferior to Amaimon.
"So, who is Mephistopheles trying to summon using the Demon King’s body as a vessel?"
Yes, I can only assume that he's just using the Demon King as a vessel, and not trying to summon any devils.
"It is thought that he is trying to summon a being greater than Mephisto, the Seven Deadly Sins, or a demon above the 72 Pillars of Solomon!"
"The seven deadly sins have already been summoned to the southern continent, right?"
I ask a question.
"Gluttony Beelzebub, Greed Amon (Amaimon), Lust Asmodeus, and Sloth Belphegor have already been summoned to the southern continent!
Well, I don't think the devils already summoned to the southern continent will be summoned to this world!"
"If it's the Seven Deadly Sins, there are only three spots left. Actually, Pride Lucifer and Wrath Satan are the same person, so if you think about it, there are only two more.
Lucifer and Envy Leviathan!"
"Right! And maybe. The person Mephisto was trying to summon was Lucifer!
Mephisto is a popular devil and appears in many novels, but Mephistopheles who appears in Marlowe's [Doctor Faustus] is said to be a devil who serves Lucifer!"
"Isn't Mephisto a devil who serves Beelzebub?"
"Each work is different!"
"Each work is a fantasy!"
"Devils, angels, and God are vague beings, so they are not recognized, they appear in various media such as gossip, folklore, stories, lies of scammers, novels, movies, anime, and many people have their existence revealed to many people. As soon as it is recognized, it materializes!"
"Does this mean that all possibilities are true and false?"
"Once someone believes it, it's already reality!
If a certain fraudster calls himself a god, and someone believes that he is a god, the fraudster becomes a real god to that believer!"
Shiro let out a philosophical shit.
Perhaps Shiro is also trying to reach God using that logic.
Rather than selling a cheap vase at a high price, a new religion sells a White Spider Necklace, an ultra-luxury magic tool that costs 8 million gol, for 5,000 gol.
"How rude! I’m not selling necklaces to make money!
In order to elevate myself to the realm of God, I sell truly beneficial necklaces at low prices!"
Shiro corrected me.
"Then why would you go to such lengths to surpass God!"
"I’ve said it many times! It’s Arachne’s habit!
Even Master ate flesh during your skeleton days! Or eat brain! You screamed in an unpleasant voice!
I'm also the same!
Even I don't understand why I'm trying to surpass God!"
Apparently, Shiro didn't have any deep thoughts about it, but was trying her best to surpass the gods out of Arachne's habit or inertia.
