9th Circle Lord

The children's thoughts were heard through the connected Ener.

What's wrong with you?’

I think you're uncomfortable.’

It was the sound of the mind through Ener.

Luther realized why the devil so much led his opponent to him.

An ener is an inner connection between beings.’

The children's concern for themselves was conveyed.

The light connected through Ener was like a candle.

It's colored, but it's white without a speck of noticeable. Luther reached out his hand.

The children held hands without hesitation.

I can feel the pure heart.

'This is the world of Ener.'

Luther smiled at the children.

Only then did the children laugh with confidence.

As soon as Barcoz arrived in the capital, he found a house and put up a signboard for his business.

Luther knew where Barcoz's business was, so he found it.

Barcoz alternately looked at the children in front of him and asked Luther.

"What should I do?"

"Let them do light work."

"You mean chores?"

"Yes, there's nothing grand. Order a small errand first. They are good and upright, so they will do well diligently."

"Okay."

While Barcoz was going to warm up the bath water to wash the dirty children, Luther explained in eye contact with the children.

"The old man I just saw is a merchant named Barcoz. Do what you can through him."

The children opened their eyes round.

I wondered if he left himself like this.

"Where's the old man going?"

"I'm busy. But I'll visit you often."

"Yes."

"Barcoz will treat you well, so you guys stay safe and stay here."

Emily suddenly came in.

"Madam, thank you."

Luther patted Emily on the back and grabbed Hansen by the shoulder.

"Preciate your parents' belongings because they don't sell them recklessly. It is early, but you should also learn to stand on your own feet. That way, I can protect my brother."

Hansen nodded at Luther's advice.

"I will protect my sister."

"I look forward to it."

Luther stood up and looked at the children.

"I've got to go.

"Goodbye."

"You must come.”

Luther went out of the business to see the children off.

Thanks to the devil's teachings, Enerra set foot in a new realm.

You may be happy to have achieved it, but Luther's expression was as dark as he had all the worries of the world.

He looked up at the clear sky full of dark clouds and hung his head.

The place he was headed for was a bar.

The bar was full of people, day or night. The devil was sitting opposite him in search of a suitable seat.

Luther looked at him sourly.

The devil grinned.

"It's a good day. How can I die alone?"

"Why have you not been affected by the magic of turning back time?”

"I am not affected by time and space. Even if I turn back time and space, my consciousness remains the same. That's why I know."

Luther was full of energy.

It was a male monster.

The devil smiled as if his thoughts were revealed on his face.

"I'm much greater than you think. I am the earth and the sea in this world. And it has existed since before the sky was made. Don't ignore the age."

Luther put out his tongue.

"You've lived long enough to get sick of it."

"I've only endured with one thought to be a god. And now I'm on the verge. No one will stop me."

The devil shined his eyes as if he would achieve it. 

Luther asked.

"Who else is not affected by time magic?"

"Nothing."

"Are you sure?"

"I assure you, I have a strong mind thanks to Ener, but others are different. You'll be quite surprised to see your enemies in the future. Strength is equal or far superior, but mental instability is unstable. Not only the devil, but also the dragon. They're powerful idiots.”

Luther wondered.

"Can a powerful being have a weak mind?"

"This is human prejudice. He idolizes a strong being as perfect as a god. The truth is the exact opposite. For many years, he eats his mind and eventually drives himself crazy. Do you know why dragons eat their own people? They're crazy. A thousand years, two thousand years, how can you endure, but after that? God is the only one who can endure an infinite stream of time."

Luther was quite surprised by the new fact.But when I heard the story of the devil, I thought it could be.

It is tiresome and painful to spend such a long time in vain.

Beyond oblivion, there was no way not to forget even his own existence.

"Strong doesn't always mean good.”

"Yes, you are great and dangerous in that respect. The world of the first month you entered is harsh. You have to spend a lot of time and be firm. Immortality is like a curse without a goal."

Luther took his advice into his head.

"I'll keep that in mind."

"You've been wearing a bamboo statue all the way to the bar, because you've been conscious of something other than yourself?"

"That's not it."

"Then?"

Luther looked around the pub for a moment and sighed at his answer.

"Because I ended up coming back.”

"What are you talking about?"

"I left the human world and settled in the mountains because I hated the war and the ugly soldiers. But Georges showed up. I felt threatened. I came to the human world to find out who you are, behind Georges, to prepare for any possible danger. But since I met you and learned from you, I think I'll have to get involved with people from now on.”

"Hmm. You have to speak properly. Georges was out of my control.”

"He was made by you."

"If I go up there, I'm responsible for that's right. So you don't like to hang out with people?"

"That's right."

The devil kicked his tongue.

I wondered where Luther's closed mind came from, and his disgust toward humans was underlying it.

The devil scolded him.

"Dude, if you're scared of shit, you should think about cleaning it up. You run cowardly? You're such a coward."

Luther asked back with his eyes full of energy.

"What do you mean? If your mouth is crooked, say it right away. Why does it look like you're running away?”

"Am I wrong? You don't want to get tangled up, do you?"

"I just didn't want to interfere."

"But you're in a position to interfere, aren't you?”

The demon king pinched Luther's reversed position.

"Isn't it time to change?"

"I know, so I'm lamenting for myself. "From the moment I became a nine-circle, my life was a vain hope from the beginning."

"Isn't that obvious? Every being is a continuation of struggle from birth."

The devil, who was making a conclusion, asked Luther secretly.

"How was Ener?"

"It's amazing. I read the mind of existence."

"Are you going to borrow the same way I do? Making a religion."

"No, I'll do something different from you."

The devil was puzzled.

"What do you mean?"

"My power magic does not enforce authority. So I'm going to combine your Ener with my power magic."

"What?"

The devil tilted at the unexpected answer.

"Is that possible?"

"In the first place, Ener is similar to power, but he's more interfering. So I'm going to combine the strengths of both abilities."

Power magic is not necessarily bad. Liberate the object and give free will.

Ener, on the other hand, interferes with the existence to strengthen the mental power of the subject, thus making it conform to the mind.

In the process, Enerra took power, which Luther thought would not be much different if only this method was added to his power.

The devil is in an absurd position.

"Are you still leaning on the rune? There's no point in the rest of the world.”

"If you don't have it, you can make it there."

Luther looked straight at the devil and said firmly.

"I still think there's a secret in Lune. I also don't believe that there are no 10 circles. The reason you're saying that is because no one has ever achieved 10 circles."

The devil kicked his tongue.

"He's so stubborn. So. Do you think 10 circles exist?"

Luther's wish is useless.

He spoke reproachfully.

"Get a hold of yourself. Even Dragon, who lived tens of thousands of years, never achieved 10 circles. Who is the Dragon? They are manna beings. Even they didn't have 10 circles. It doesn't even exist in the first place."

"Dragons must be foolish.”

"Follow my way. I managed to steer the path to becoming a god during the frightening time. I'm giving you that great secret now. Will you cling to a situation where you are not in a situation where you are not good enough to thank me?"

"There's not only one way to be a god.""In the way you believe it, God would have come out of the dragons."

"I've already made up my mind."

Luther was unstoppable and the devil burst into anger.

"What a fool! Good! Do as you please.

The devil, who was going to turn around, turned his head slowly.

"Didn't you change your mind?"

"Can't it change in that short time?"

"You're so stubborn."

"Please come back soon."

"Why?"

"I'm tired of theory. We're going to have to deal with a strong opponent, so we need someone to boost our sense of combat."

The devil smiled a fishy smile.

"Are you trying to train against me?"

"Can't you?"

"Hey, look at the vagrant. And then you'll regret it?”

"I told you first, but you're a pun, and you're going to do it? Are you not going to?"

"When would be a good time?"

"See you in a week."

"Huh. What a frustrating fellow.”

A gentle smile came to the mouth of the devil, who was stirring his head gently.

It was rebellious but fresh.

His appearance began to cloud.

"I'll find you again soon."

As soon as he disappeared, Luther sipped beer.

'There's a lot to do.’

There was a lot to prepare from now on.

While thinking about how to proceed in the future, whispering came through the status window.

Master, where are you?]

It was Kalua.

Luther told me where he was.

Kalua, who finished his business at the tower of the wise, appeared with Kiara.

The two were bewildered by Luther leaning the glass alone.

Luther doesn't like drinking.

Then he drinks alone in solitude.

Something seems to have happened.

The two approached Luther's table with worried faces.

"Master, are you all right?"

"Luther, what's wrong?”

"Oh, you're here. How was your trip?"

"Yes, I've collected quite a bit of information the Master wants. There's a lot of interesting people out there. Of course, I wish it were true, but it was worth looking into."

His sparkling eyes seem to have obtained some interesting information.

Luther nodded.

"Good job."

"But what happened to the Master? Why are you drinking alone?"

"There was a party a little while ago."

"Really? Where's the group?"

"I ran away."

"What? Running away?"

"Yes."

Luther said sternly, recalling the grumpy devil.
