Breakthrough with the Forbidden Master-Chapter 218: The Devil’s Proposal

Chapter 218 – The Devil’s Proposal

I beat the Six Supremacy.

I could say so.

However, when I defeated Jamdi’el, the Seraphs appeared, and this time, of all people, a classmate?

Moreover, what did she just say?

It wasn’t just me.

The princess’ group were also flabbergasted.

“But it’s amazing… that Earth, who should have been inferior to Rebal and the princess, was victorious against a Six Supremacy…”

Coman wiped her tears away and smiled sadly.

I’m being praised, I’m feeling pretty giddy right now…

“Gah… kaha… Co….. man… Coman?”

Then, lying on his back, a part of his body gone, and his head connected to his torso with only a small piece of flesh, Paripi opened his eyes in a hoarse voice.

Is he still alive?

I mean, now…

“Can you move?”

“…… no… nope…”

“Is that so… never… I didn’t think you would lose…”

“…… lose…… huh…?”

Hold on…

“Hey, Coman!?”

“What is the meaning of this, Coman? Why are you with a Six Supremacy!?”

“What…”

“Coman!?”

At that moment, I, the princess, Rebal, and Fu all raised our voices in astonishment at the same time.

Why was Coman with Paripi…

“Why? I have a connection with this man… is that strange? Is it surprising that I was such a girl? Do you people…… know me well enough … to find this surprising?”

Then, in response to our astonishment, Coman, who should have been smiling, replied in a sullen manner.

“So… no one knew the real me… after all…… no one could see me until the end…”

“Coman… you…”

“And now… when the opportune moment is around here … now … it’s time to end it…”

Words from Coman, who should have always been timid, condemning us.

And finally, Tre’ainar, who was beside me…

『This little girl… apparently she was a spy.』

“Huh?”

『…… This one… she is human, but she has been placated by Paripi… well, I had my concerns, yet I was unaware of Paripi’s vast espionage network…』

Tre’ainar declared so about Coman.

“…… Coman… you…… were you a spy?!”

“Is it true, Coman!? Why?! Ever since we were little… weren’t we friends? You…”

“It can’t be… you…… wait, so your parents!? The Piper family were…”

“Hey, Coman!? What do you mean? Explain it properly!”

At my words, the princess and the others were also stunned and raised their voices.

But Coman smiled sadly at us again…

“In the first place, my house was this man’s followers before I was born…”

“What?”

“And, spies, in short, are traitors, aren’t they? I… was never among Earth’s circle of friends, was I? Did you think of me as a friend? Besides…… even the princess and company couldn’t see Earth or understand anything about him… and claim to be friends… how would I fit? For this journey to track Earth down, you simply brought me along because my abilities were useful, right? That’s why I’m so pissed off.”

“Coman…”

“But I’m the same. I’ve been watching Earth for over a decade and I didn’t understand anything about him… that he had gained enough strength to beat this man… really…… how useless… I am.”

She doesn’t answer our questions clearly. But we couldn’t say anything back to Coman’s words.

Then, in response to Coman’s words, Paripi, who was lying on the verge of death, opened his mouth.

“I lost… oh I see… I was beat… on the contrary… if you hadn’t been there… I would really be a goner this time…”

“Yes… you lost to Earth.”

“I see… I see… yah~…… I say…… I got beat Panay…”

A smile on his lips… but the smile on Paripi’s face was always a devilishly cruel smile, so what’s different?

Is Paripi calm now, as if somewhat refreshed?

『…… Paripi…?』

Tre’ainar also had a somewhat surprised reaction to Paripi’s state.

“Earth… this match… you win. I lost to you…”

“Huh?”

“You were strong… so strong Panay… well…… I’m not sure if it was one on one, but… I don’t feel like using that as an excuse.”

Then, in such a situation, I couldn’t help but clench my fists as I felt my heart burn with excitement at the words he just said.

“You found a path that suits you … still, if there’s something that’s still missing… then make up for it… play around with an idea… and the courage to do it…… you’ve done it brilliantly… Hihaha… splendid…… is all…… I can say…”

I shouldn’t believe a single word of this blabbermouth, but for once …… I can’t help but think that he’s not all bad…

From one of the Six Supremacy to me…

『Is the ferocity disappearing from Paripi, that mass of malice? … This man… really…… have you succumbed to the child…… to that extent? Hmm… this is…… tis the first time I have seen it. I am witnessing something unusual.』

For even Tre’ainar to say that, Paripi’s words right now may be true.

Just thinking so… damn it…… why am I so happy, I…

And now…

“Hmm… such a terrible place to hear a compliment… at this point, you… are a guy I think needs to get finished off… Coman… and are you still going to protect him?”

“Earth…”

“Breakthrough!!”

Right, what shall we do from here on?

“Get out of the way, Coman!”

『Certainly, letting him leave this place alive would be a folly. Tis best to put an end to him here.』

I went into the breakthrough state and warned Coman.

Then Coman stared at me, and the next moment she put the flute he was holding onto her mouth…

“Sound Magic, Mega Dissonance!”

『Tis a dissonance shockwave! Crush it head-on!』

“Great Demon Sonic Jab!”

Even though she suddenly unleashed a sonic shockwave, I crushed it outright…

“kuh… Sound Magic, Shadow–“

“Too late! Great Demon Jab!”

“Huh?”

Coman tried to unleash a homing spell, but this time I aimed a jab at the flute before it could be activated.

“Ah … so … fast…… amazing…”

“Now, you can’t use the flute anymore, can you? Besides, now I can hit the flute with a jab before you blow on it.”

“Huh … yes … that’s … yeah … I can’t… amazing…… really…”

Paripi is too dangerous.

He was saying something refreshing right now, but I don’t know what he’ll do when his body gets back to normal.

We can’t afford to leave him like this.

I was surprised and shocked to learn that Coman and her parents were Paripi’s spies.

But……

“Stand down, Coman. You’re right, I didn’t see you at all… I didn’t understand… but…… even so…… you’re not so indifferent that I would just beat you up by force…”

“Earth… huh?”

“It’s not that I don’t think anything of it… but…… I can’t just overlook this guy!”

I was shocked, but that’s why I couldn’t move, so I let it go. I can’t afford to do that.

“I saw the memory of the Heavenly King. That bald guy is also extreme in many ways, but… he was the mastermind! As a result, it’s even possible that humans will go to war with the Seraphs! Don’t you understand? If I made one wrong move, he would have killed us all!”

“…… Fufu… Earth… you sound like a hero.”

“Don’t make fun of me! I’ll say it again! Get out of my way!”

So I appealed to Coman with the intention of “ending” this now.

On the other hand, Coman…

“This is how… Earth… is seriously talking… with such a dirty, ugly girl like me… even though the real me is terrible… and I hate everyone…”

“Hmm?”

“How…… did I end up…… in this mess? Even though I… no….. the world is… but…… Huh!? Ugh!”

“Coman?”

She smiled sadly again, but suddenly crouched down, holding her head.

What’s wrong? When I thought about it and tried to look into her face, suddenly…

“That’s right… Earth… is watching my every move… if I fight… will he watch me more? Will he hit me? Will he force me to surrender…”

“Huh? Ah~…… Hey?”

“Aha… then… I wonder if I should have done this sooner? Being inconspicuous… minding that woman… because it’s more troublesome to catch the attention of royalty… left me constantly pissed off … ah…… can I show myself now… I wonder if it’s okay? I… I wonder if they would see me? Hey, how… I wonder?”

Oh… sort of like… this girl, she’s in a different direction from Jamdi’el and Shinobu, but somehow similar… yeah…… in a way… creeps me out… was this the kind of girl she was? No, is this her true nature? It’s like she’s suddenly a different person…

“Hihahaha… stop stop, Coman dear. Don’t do it. Don’t show…. ‘That face’.”

“Oh… eh…… I…”

Surprisingly, it was Paripi who stopped Coman who was about to go out of control.

At the sound of Paripi’s voice, Coman, who had a face agitated with excitement, suddenly stopped.

“Your magic isn’t for a one-on-one fight… you’re no match for Earth in his current state of sensitivity panay…”

“…… but…… if this continues…”

“I know … both of them … no … you and your parents are done for… Earth won’t let it go… and there’s no benefit to him… even if he lets me live now. I don’t suppose you trust me in any way.”

Saying that, Paripi turns to me with a small smile on his lips.

Are you looking at me?

You don’t even have to ask.

“That’s a given, dying bastard!”

Trust? Absolutely not.

I’m not going to let it pass.

“And… goho… if…… if the ‘someone’ in you is the ‘one’ I know… he would say ‘Kill me without mercy’…… I guess.”

“Nu…”

“Hmm… I was right.”

Too close… this guy, it seemed he has almost reached my secret by now.

Well, I’m not going to tell him.

“So, stop, Coman. It can’t be helped.”

“…… Then…… what are you going to do?”

“Don’t worry about it, I’ve already… decided…”

Decided? What? Did he resolve himself? Did he give up by any chance? No, he’s not like that…

“The benefits of keeping me alive… is that I could start earning your trust… little by little from now on.”

“Come again?”

“Huh?”

『Huh?』

And he wasn’t making any sense at all.

Coman and I, and even Tre’ainar, tilted our heads.

Hey I don’t get it.

What the heck was Paripi…

“Mr. Earth Lagann.”

“Oh, uh?”

Then, Paripi suddenly became serious… I mean, could he even say anything with a serious tone?

But that was a trivial matter, and the next words that came out of Paripi’s mouth were…

“I’ll… be your subordinate… okay.”

“……………… Huh?”

『…… Ha?』

“””‘Hah!!??.'”””

“Rather than inciting the idiot Seraphs or dealing drugs… watching to see where you go… looks like it’s going to be more fun Panay.”

Auditory hallucination? I misheard? Tre’ainar?

『Uh, e… eh?』

Oh… Tre’ainar froze with a strange expression on his face and his mouth wide open!?

Then… he must have also misheard that just now, right?

“Now, as I am… for the time being… I can’t accompany you… until I heal… but… I….. I will absolutely… be useful Panay!!”

“E… even if it kills me, I won’t accept!!”

Anyway…… I was so surprised that I couldn’t think straight either, but I managed to squeeze that much out.

No, not at all, that’s my impression after all?!

Look at this devastation! Everyone, we’ve all been beaten and in tatters!?

Even the bald guy was gutted, and the prince, already out of the loop, was poking his head closer!

And, sure enough…

“””””………………”””””

Everyone was utterly speechless.
