Chapter 186 The Demon Who Resembles a Goddess Even More Than a Goddess

Chapter 186 The Demon Who Resembles a Goddess Even More Than a Goddess

Aqua didn't cause any more trouble, and Banir had a few days of peace. But one morning while sweeping the floor, he suddenly realized that his true purpose was not to live in seclusion in Wiz's magic item shop as a general clerk.

"I almost forgot, we are here to stop this world from being ruled by a tyrant or even destroyed in the future."

"It's all that idiotic goddess's fault. She's always causing us trouble, making us forget our real purpose."

Barnier slapped his mask, deciding to put some pressure on Aqua.

How exactly was it done?

Well, He started treating Broly to all sorts of delicious food and told Wiz to go back and tell Aqua about it.

The purpose was to tell the goddess Aqua: "If you don't properly guide your disciple, she might be lured away by this demon!"

Upon hearing the news, Aqua was initially flustered and suddenly became attached to Broly, worried that her disciple might have been seduced and abducted by a demon.

But after discovering that Broly was devoted to her, Aqua felt relieved and even called Barnier a worthless devil who was wasting his time.

Then, she continued to live a carefree and lazy holiday life, spending her time eating, sleeping, or drinking fine wine.

"Enjoying life on earth, I no longer yearn for the heavens," is Aqua's current state. Her comfortable life has made her in no hurry to return to the heavens.

After all, what's the point of going back to the Heavenly Realm sooner? To live a boring life of receiving the dead all year round?

Rather than doing that, it's better to enjoy life to the fullest.

Anyway, with the terrifying strength of his own disciples, he can deal with the Demon King whenever he wants.

. . . .

When Banir learned of Aqua's submissive attitude, he was speechless. His purpose in pressuring Aqua was to ensure that the goddess would properly guide his disciple and prevent her from going astray.

But as it turned out, Aqua simply let her disciples grow up freely, a fact that Banir only learned after careful observation.

This information infuriated Banir, who had never seen such an irresponsible goddess as Aqua before.

If it weren't for knowing Vobak (a native deity who was arbitrarily identified as an evil god by the Axis cult long ago, and who wields divine power over violence and sloth), Banir would have even suspected that Aqua was the real goddess of sloth.

. . . .

"Mr. Barnier, why are you sighing all of a sudden?"

Wiz saw the demon sighing in front of the shelf and couldn't help but ask him something.

"Alas, we are worried about the future of this world!"

Barnier was telling the truth.

"Eh, has the Demon King's army decided to launch a full-scale attack on humanity?"

Wiz blurted out the question instinctively.

"That's not how it is. You know Yasaka Kyoichi, he has absolutely no interest in human territory."

If it weren't for those red-eyed guys and the Axis Cult, who would occasionally sneak into the Demon King's castle to provoke him, the war between humans and demons would probably have ended long ago.

Barnier waved his hand and revealed some rather significant information.

"Well, I don't think we can blame this entirely on the Crimson Demon Clan and the Axis Cult. After all, the war between humans and demons has been going on for six hundred years, and it was the demons who started the invasion in the first place..."

Wiz offered a weak defense.

"War is a matter of right and wrong, wait, why are we discussing this with you?"

"Isn't Mr. Barnier worried about the future of humanity?"

"Indeed, but the one we are worried about is not the current Demon King."

"What is that?"

"He will be the Demon King in the future."

"Oh, you mean the Demon King's daughter..."

Before Wiz could even utter the Demon King's daughter's name, Banir interrupted him, "It's not her, I'm talking about Broly."

"Huh?"

"With his strength, he could easily defeat the current Demon King's army, but the hero who slays the dragon eventually becomes the dragon himself, and the hero who slays the demon is also prone to turning evil and becoming the Demon King."

We fear that if he turns to the dark side and becomes a demon king, he might do something that destroys the world. And if he does that, no one in this world can stop him. We demons can't do it, and as for the goddess, look at that imposter—do you think she can handle it?"

The more Barnier interacted with Broly, the more he discovered the terror in the boy. He had actually realized that some of Broly's maxed-out attributes were perhaps just the display limit of the adventurer card, rather than his true strength limit.

The evidence lies in the fact that during his battle with Broly in the dream, he unleashed his true power from his Hell form, but unsurprisingly, he was still easily defeated by the boy.

The boy in the dream displayed a power even more terrifying than in reality, and showed no sign of wavering or doubting his own strength, as if the boy in the dream was the self he perceived himself to be, and that he should be that powerful.

"Well, Broly is a well-behaved child. I don't think he will become a demon king, much less do something to destroy the world."

Wiz said.

"That's hard to say. After all, the dark side of humanity in this world is quite filthy. If the other party accidentally sees those things, given that kid's rather capricious way of doing things, he will probably do something that suits his own desires."

Imagine this: in an era where the Demon King has been defeated, the hero who defeated him is now murdering some filthy human nobles.

What will those in power think then? Will they treat him as the new Demon King?

Sometimes, whether a brave person wants to fall into evil is one thing, but being forced into evil by others is another.

Barnier's words were loaded with meaning; the once lonely boy had only chosen to become the Demon King after experiencing the wickedness of human nature.

Upon hearing this, the Lich Lady fell silent for a moment.

Last time, she was also forced to fight with Axel's guards.

Without Darkness, that matter would definitely have been difficult to handle.

Perhaps she will have to leave this city.

"Mr. Barnier, what do you plan to do?"

"Well, let's first take the place of that irresponsible goddess and guide that brat to love this world."

At the very least, when he witnesses the darkness of this world, he should be prevented from easily having thoughts of destroying it.

And don't let the mere fact that his master made a fool of himself give rise to dangerous thoughts of wanting to kill anyone who dared to mock his master...

Barnier thought for a moment, sorted out some things that needed to be done, and then answered Wiz's question.

. . .

"Broly, what do you think of this world?"

"I feel great, what's wrong?"

"If, and I mean if, you saw something uncomfortable, what would you do?"

"What do you mean?"

Broly looked at Wiz in confusion. The Lich Lady had been acting strangely lately, always asking him some inexplicable questions.
