I.. Am God?-Chapter 208 Samyaza
"Eh." Paimon shrugged, "Just when I see a being that's soul is worthy to harvest will I do this thing. And considering that Owychws are incredibly rare and powerful, I don't really expect dealing with such souls even just once a decade. We're already lucky that we've encountered an infant one, because adult ones are a pain in the ass and could also be a pain that can sever my neck." Paimon chuckled and unfroze the bodies of the demons, causing them to fall down lifelessly.
He then picked the bodies up and stored them in a small pouch on his waist that sucked the bodies that were n times larger than its size. Andre widened his eyes with what he saw, but considering that he also has a personal space that can store items, he wasn't that shocked. Paimon, after confirming that nothing was left, walked towards Andre. He extended his right palm to Andre, who became curious as to what it was. On his palm was a small teardrop-shaped bead that shone like a polished diamond.
Inside the bead was a small and intense red dot that moved very chaotically, as if it's trying to escape its confinement. Andre took it from Paimon with his thumb and index fingers and raised it up to scrutinize it. "That bead is called a Purity Abyss Chrysanthemum." Paimon said, "It can seal souls that have the attributes of abyssal lifeforms, and is especially used to contain violent beings such as the Owychws. Don't worry about it escaping, those kinds of beads were said to even have sealed Demon God-level beings such as His Damned Eminence L." Paimon assured.
Nodding in understanding, Andre kept the bead inside his personal space to find something to hang it on later. Although he doesn't know who Paimon was talking about, he still thought of this item as a powerful tool that can seal powerful beings that are in a level that even Paimon, a demon that is beyond powerful in the eyes of Andre, had to glorify as an Eminence.
Now that they weren't doing anything, Paimon finally had the chance to re-assess the Awaken Samyaza. He had a very tall figure, about 7'3, and his long and messy silver white hair cascaded down to his waist and looked similar to that of a one-winged character from a game.
Due to years of fighting and not having the chance to rest and fix himself, Samyaza's upper body was exposed while its upper garment's torn parts hung down from his waist.
Due to having no nourishment, although his body was built with toughness, it wasn't that muscular, and instead looked as if Rogers had only built a small amount of muscle on his lanky body. Given a little grooming and proper nutrition, Samyaza would definitely be a hellishly/heavenly handsome figure. Of course, that is a guarantee, considering that Samyaza, together with Azazel, are beings that are of Heaven.
After a while, Paimon spoke to Andre, "This Samyaza is a very good seed. Nurture him well, and he can become one of the most powerful generals that would be under your command. He has a tenacious willpower and would definitely be a help to your cause."
Andre nodded and looked at Samyaza and Azazel, the two remaining Watchers out of the two hundred that were thrown down from heaven. "I want you to choose." Andre put forward an option for the two, "One, be free and roam this world however you like, considering that your actions do not harm the mortals. Two, be under my command and enter a wider land for the taking. If you choose the first, you can go now. If you choose the second, you will be placed under rigorous training and will become the elite of elites, the cream of the crop.
Andre then added with a hint of condescension, "The gods inside this world have limited growth and would just slow our progress, so I am planning not to include any one of them in going past this world's boundaries. Being chosen by any one of us means that you have potential to exceed your current power. Your participation is under your own volition, and I would not force you to come with us. But–" 𝑓𝙧𝘦𝘦we𝘣𝙣𝘰𝘃𝗲l.com
"I will go with you." Andre wasn't able to finish what he wanted to say when Samyaza suddenly knelt down, "Considering that I have already been shunned by my home, I have nowhere else to go. I would like to join you as your subject to obey anything you command. You have saved my life and that made me give you my loyalty."
Andre's lips curled up and he nodded in approval. He then turned to Azazel and looked at him with a 'what-is-your-decision' gaze. A minute later, Azazel nodded, "I will join you." He replied.
"Then, it's decided." Andre smiled. He then took out Solomon's book and opened it. "This is Solomon's Anthology. Inside it is a Raunveruleiki Glorious Array that has a separate world inside it. You shall train inside until I command you to come out."
"Show-off." Behind him, Solomon muttered indignantly. He felt that his existence was being ignored just because a more powerful figure appeared.
Still, no one really took mind of him. When Paimon heard Andre say the name of the array, his eyes lit up and asked, "Can I see it?"
Seeing nothing wrong with it, Andre nodded and handed it to him. When Paimon looked at the array, his excited expression toned down a bit but he was still amazed, "This world really is different. I saw two things that are incredibly rare in my realm in just a span of a day." He muttered.
"You know that array?" Andre asked with intrigue and Paimon nodded, "Yes. This is an array that is used by Demon Lords to train their men. Although this is a mediocre one, it's still an array that has a functional Dream Realm inside." He responded without looking away from the array.
Solomon's mouth gaped open in indignation. Although he knows for himself that the array that he made was a mediocre one, to hear it in the mouth of another person that seemed to be mocking him made him feel offended.
Suddenly, Paimon's eyes lit up and he exclaimed, "Wait. That's right!" He abruptly turned to Andre and said, "Can you please hand me the Owychw soul, my prince?" Andre nodded and took out the bead from his space.
As soon as Paimon got the hold of the bead, he speedily gashed Andre's finger with it, causing blood to flow from Andre's hand. Although Andre was shocked by what he did, such small gash wouldn't even elicit a reaction from him because of how insignificant it is.
"If you wanted my blood, I could just extract it from my body. Why would you need to create a wound?" He asked. "I specifically need to wound you with this to stimulate the bloodlust inside." Paimon replied and placed his free hand on the top of the bead, "Adaequatio rei et intellectus; Cruor." He muttered.
Three small arrays then formed at the top of the teardrop-shaped bead as the tip gradually turned red. When he felt that it's ready, Paimon started to draw additional runes at the top of the original array. From the tip of the beaf, a blood-red ink came out to mark on the paper as it ran on its surface.
The ink that came from the bead had a hint of the Owychw's aura of bloodlust, but through the magic that was casted, it was suppressed from leaking too much.
Trusting that he knows what he is doing, Andre just stood as he watched Paimon immersed in his work, carefully engraving arrays and runes.
After a while, Paimon pinched the tip of the bead and removed the blood on it before giving it back to Andre. "It is done." He said.
He ran his magic on the surface of the array, activating it. The array glew, but, different from before, a purple glow shone in some of its parts.
Strong winds blew, which was strange, considering that they were inside a mountain. Then, above the array, an image of the Dream Realm showed itself through a mirage.
While the wind was billowing, as if coming from the mirage, Paimon retrieved the bodies of the demons that were extracted off of their souls from the pouch and threw them inside the mirage. Noticeably, the mirage became larger and more vivid, showing to them a beautiful paradise. fre𝑒𝘸𝚎𝚋n૦ѵℯl.c𝒐𝘮
Paimon turned to Andre and the others and smiled, "Shall we go, my prince?" Invited Paimon.
Andre nodded and sat cross-legged on the ground, which was imitated by Azazel and Samyaza. Paimon saw that they're ready, so he injected the array with a bit of his energy, causing it to create a black hole-like suction, sucking them inside.
When Andre opened his eyes, he saw the beautiful scenery of the Dream Realm, but he wasn't able to rejoice yet when he felt something odd. "This.. I am still in my body?!" He exclaimed. Beside him, Solomon was also stupefied.
