The game continues!
Due to his own mistakes, Diablo lost half of his body. Unfortunately, since he was a demon, he would not die.
'Tch! I wish this bastard would just die...!!" Inner Rigel.
Diablo is very weak. Maybe even Cold and Ray can beat the weakened Diablo. However, due to the contracts made, both parties should not attack each other during the game.
There is only one chance Rigel has left to take the contents of Pandora's box and end this Death game. If he succeeds, everyone can go home alive.
Just as Rigel was about to retrieve the contents of the urn, Diablo stopped him.
"Otto, you can't take it yet."
"Why is that?! If I take it, we can go home safely!"
"hmm? We were? Since when are you going to come home with them?" Diablo smiled cunningly.
"h-huh? Wh-what do you mean? Isn't that what the contract says?"ask Yuri.
"Don't I just say 'the one at stake' I told you all that without exception I'll just let go, huh?" Diablo looked at Yuri.
"l-then why didn't you tell me from the beginning?!" Takumi yells.
"Then why don't you ask?" Diablo laughed mockingly at the heroes.
"Hahahahaha, heroes are really interesting! You have dispelled my boredom that has been going on for a hundred years... I can't help my excitement, ahahahaha." He laughed as he hugged his remaining half.
'Damn it, so, since the beginning we have been in word games?!' Rigel cursed
In that case, what Rigel has done has been in vain. He had sacrificed my left eye just to play with this demon?
'Do I have to take the contents of this urn again? Or should I run away from this game?'Inner Rigel.
"Rigell!!" Tirith yells.
Rigel looked at Tirith for a moment.
'Hmm, you idiot why should I hesitate, what should I do is very clear.'
Think Rigel.
Rigel smiled and said "i have things I have to protect." kept turning around in Rigel's head. Rigel faces Diablo who is still filled with happiness.
"No, Rigel...!! If you continue this game, you will only meet your death...!!!" tirith.
Rigel turned around and let out the best smile he could.
"From saying something like that that can break my spirit, wouldn't you rather say something that strengthens me?"
Hearing that, Tirith wiped her tear-filled cheeks. Rigel will probably regret it because he will no longer see the faith of Tirith if he fails here.
"Rigel! Stay alive, and one day take me with you to see my mother's star!"
Tirith smiled with tears starting to come out of her eyes.
"Huh, how else! If this is the case I can't back off! " rigel shouted, a smile growing on his lips.
Hearing Rigel yell everyone including Diablo looked at him.
Diablo narrowed his eyes and continued to stare at Rigel.
"Tirith then, I'll show you how to face someone stronger than me in my world."
Tirith's eyes widened in surprise as she looked at the smiling rigel boldly.
'What might it mean that the thing I once copied to persuade dad to let me go here?' Inner Tirith.
"Oi, you little monkey. You said you'd only free the people who were put in the house, right? Am I among the people at stake?" ask Rigel.
The vines began to appear on Dahu Diablo.
"Fuck, it looks like you're getting sassy for me huh? Hm, I will not be inedible to that sad provocation of yours." Diablo said.
"Technically you're a player, which means you're not the one at stake, so you're the only one I won't let go of" he continued.
"So, you're going to free the other heroes, aren't you? Besides, I made them the people I was risking, I mean Tirith" Rigel said.
"You know what else if so. You're the only one I won't let go of." Diablo's gaze grew sharper.
'why? Attitude changed. He is very different from before. I no longer felt the energy of fear from this fellow, he even dared to call me a Monkey Girl. What is he really trying to do?' Inner Diablo.
Right now, Rigel had steeled himself and his determination to stay alive and for the sake of Tirith who was behind him. Rigel wanted to take the contents of the urn, however, Diablo's right hand was still inside.
"hoi, if your hands are still there I won't be able to take the contents." Rigel.
"my nails, I almost forgot that my right hand was fine." Reply Diablo, chuckle.
Diablo started to raise his right hand.
And what he got was—
"What is that thing? Is it an egg or something?" said Takumi.
Everyone was shocked when they found out it was a dragon egg. It is not something that can be easily found. Basically for a dragon to produce eggs, it takes a long time than other monsters. Before the dragon takes out its egg, the mother must channel her magic to the egg in order to become a powerful dragon.
"hoo?! Looks like losing half my body is worth what I got. This egg came from a pure dragon and the magic concentrated in this egg was incredible!" Diablo was getting excited.
"you-what do you intend to take care of that dragon egg?! If a demon as strong as you takes care of a dragon, it will be a disaster even for demons!"
Tirith.
It seemed, if the pure dragon baby also got strong magic energy apart from his mother he would become very strong and could be consumed by his own strength until it lost control.
"Yes, it's not a good choice to raise him. But, if I manage to control it, I will benefit from having a powerful dragon bodyguard."
Damn, if this demon were to nurture a dragon, what would be dangerous to deal with it?!
"all right now we finish this game. Since I got an unexpected souvenir, I have no interest in your lives anymore. So hurry up and finish the game."
The veins start to appear on Rigel's forehead. Due to the contract that has been made, Rigel still has to take the final contents to complete his game.
'Please, don't let me get anything terrible!'
Rigel prayed in his heart.
Rigel put his injured left arm in the urn. Rigel felt something like a wind that could be held in his grasp.
'what's this?'
As rigel pulled him, a black aura shot out from the urn and spread in the air.
"what the hell is this?!" ask Rigel.
"this-"
Diablo was equally surprised.
The black aura started to enter the body of the rigel and
Cruc!
Rigel's left hand blackened and exploded just as it did to Diablo.
"a-arggghh!!" rigel screamed in pain.
"Rigel...!!!" 4x.
Takumi, Tirith, Takatsumi and Yuri yelled at Rigel who was entered by the black aura and his shattered arms.
"Hmm? There are more cockroaches coming. Though this began to be interesting, but because of my weakened state I will resign now" said Diablo.
Diablo began to regenerate his previously crushed wings. He started flying into the sky with a smile looking at Rigel who was in pain.
'I rarely see anything like this. It's a pity that I'm weakened, I have to miss it.'
Until the end Diablo's smile didn't go away. Diablo flew away and started to disappear.
"don't go you fucking devil! A coward! Come here, I'll kill you! "Takumi yells.
"Rigell!" Tirith ran to Rigel.
Takatsumi and the others chased after from behind. Lalu—
"Don't go near her!" the voice of someone screaming.
"All warriors, surround the hero creator!!"
Looking at the source of the voice, there were Cold, Ray, Misa and Nisa, as well as an old man riding a horse and using complete armor.
"D-dad?"
"King, why are you here?" ask Takatsumi.
"that's because of the Creator hero. It seems like the worst has happened."
"Dad? Worst circumstances? What do you mean dad?! Hurry up and order the soldiers to take care of Rigel...!!!"
"can't. Now, he's no longer a holy hero."
The king made a disappointed face.
"Not a holy hero? What do you mean?!" ask Takumi.
"as the legend says. The light of the creator hero begins to blacken, before his powers spiral out of control... He must be killed."
"what light do you mean? Blackened it? Why should I be killed?" Yuri shaking.
While Tirith, could only cry and start muttering.
"cannot be... There's no way Rigel could be a lost hero!! "
The events of the legend will repeat themselves. Will this be the end of the hero creator?
