Overgeared

Chapter 1653

Hundreds of thousands of eggs wriggled like slime. Agnus looked at the eggs, each one bigger than himself, and remembered the conversations he had with Chepardea. In fact, these were the words that Chepardea used to say.

His Highness Baal is great. I believe only in His Highness Baal. Even if I am abandoned by him, I will sing hymns for him.

What was the scope of the 'abandonment' he was talking about? Being murdered, having the memory of being murdered erased, being resurrected, living as a plaything, being killed again, forgetting, resurrected, killed…

Could Chepardea accept even this terrible reincarnation with a happy heart? He was sure this wasn't the case.

"Crazy bastard…"

Agnus stopped breathing for a moment before letting out a curse. He wasn't feeling compassion for Chepardea. He was a demon who shouldn't be sympathized with. In the first place, Agnus had no loyalty to Chepardea. It was just that Baal was too disgusting.

He imagined it spontaneously in his mind. The moment when Chepardea was in his most important phase.

Baal, who came to him as if he had been waiting, suddenly violently attacked him and slowly and painfully killed him while telling him the truth. Baal would speak very slowly while savoring it.

You have been betrayed in various ways by me. How many times have you been killed? You will be born again and forget this moment.

Then it would repeat again from the beginning. The reason? There was no need to think about anything like that. It was because giving meaning to Baal's choices and actions was the most meaningless thing in the world. He was merely seeking pleasure and the form of pleasure he desired was usually cruel.

That was all. It was like the ordinary neighbors who bullied the weak.

"It is Baal. He is going to keep killing Chepardea."

"That's right."

Betty confirmed Agnus' conclusion. What was Chepardea that he hatched and resurrected endlessly? Why did he lose his memory, what exactly was his relationship with Baal, etc.

Agnus had many questions, but he didn't bother to express them. It wasn't good for his mental health to be curious about Baal's affairs. The one thing he did want to confirm was none other than Betty's identity.

"You… who are you? Why do you know about this place?"

The road leading to the cages where the memphis were trapped—it was also the place where Chepardea's eggs were stored and it was a very secret area even in hell. Yet Agnus and Betty, who would've been teleported elsewhere, showed up here. She also knew about the relationship between Chepardea and Baal. The implications were great.

"Are you perhaps a former Baal's Contractor?"

The girl who hadn't taken her eyes off him from the first moment they met—Agnus asked while feeling it was a possibility and Betty nodded gently.

"That's right."
