Sign a contract with the devil

Botis

It was getting dark, and Beryl came out of Westminster Abbey.The person he is going to visit this time is the bishop here. Unfortunately, just two days ago, the bishop with handicapped legs accidentally slipped off the stool and is now living in the hospital.God knows why he has to step on a stool to change the light bulb by himself. He is already old, and it is logical that he would never have the turn to change the light bulb, but that day he just had a whim and wanted to change the light bulb by himself, and such an unfortunate thing happened .Fortunately, although I broke my leg, nothing happened elsewhere. As long as I practiced according to the doctor's instructions, nothing would happen.

Gabriel was waiting for Bellier in the southwest corner of Hyde Park, sitting on a loveseat by the lawn watching the egrets drinking from the stream that snaked down like a snake.Beryl met with him, and the two of them made up their minds and decided to visit the bishop in the hospital.Beryl had already inquired about the address of the hospital, so they hired a taxi and headed towards the hospital.

The bishop was in the inpatient department of the best hospital in the city, and was eating fruit when Beryl and Gabriel visited.Belial was fortunate enough to meet the bishop once, when he used secret techniques to summon the demons from hell to do things for him, and it was Belial who came.But because the bishop couldn't afford the corresponding price, Beryl didn't fulfill his wish for him.Unexpectedly, he actually found the bottle with the devil sealed this time, and opened its seal.The bishop hopes to gain more power, but he forgets that fate is always fair, it can be better or worse, and no one can predict what will happen next, and no one can escape fate except the omnipotent and omniscient God Do not be in the palm of your hand by fate.

"I'm not the first to make a deal with the devil. Faust made a pact with the devil. I just did the same thing. You know my wish. I'm just a fanatical suitor. What I pursue is what I am willing to exchange with my life, even if I pay the price of my soul, I want to see him." The bishop said lying on the bed.

"Your so-called wish is just your wishful thinking. Even if God is here, he will not fulfill your wish. As a human being, you are the most absurd person I have ever met," Beryl said.

"How beautiful he is. His beauty surpasses any description in any language. I have never seen such a beauty. If he only exists on the canvas, I am willing to look at the painting for him every day. I used to I have pursued such beauty so hard, and now an opportunity exists in front of me, of course I must seize it." The bishop's eyes were full of fanaticism.

"He is an angel and the commander of the Heavenly Legion. He cannot be yours. Your thoughts will only put yourself in unnecessary danger." Beryl warned him coldly.

The bishop once saw a portrait of Michael by chance. At that time, he was only 20 years old and not yet a member of the teaching staff.From the first time he saw the portrait, the bishop had a wild idea: he wanted to see Michael.He studied theology assiduously and became a priest. He was still searching for the magic of God's descent, and wanted to ask Michael to descend in front of him.He once successfully summoned an angel to descend, but the angel refused to summon Michael to descend for him after hearing his fantasy.So the bishop began to collect sorcery, trying to summon the devil to fulfill his wish.He also spared no expense to buy the portrait of Michael that he had seen before, thinking about it every day, almost to the point of not thinking about food and drink.

"I'm willing to make a bet with the devil in exchange for a possibility. I don't have many wishes, I just want to see him. Since the day I was 20 years old, I have been chasing him hard. I have tried my best to see him On the one hand, I have waited for 40 years for this. I am already old. When I saw you 20 years ago, I didn't have so many wrinkles on my face, but time flies, and I don't have so much time to wait. I just want to tell him what is in my heart and witness his demeanor with my own eyes. I search for his traces in the Bible, and I chase his shadow in various myths. In order to meet him, I will do whatever it takes. And I can't wait any longer, I want to see him before I die."

"Even if you signed a contract with the devil, he can only let you see a phantom. It is impossible for the real Michael to appear in front of you. Even I can't summon Michael. The devil who signed the contract with you is just I’m just using illusory bubbles to confuse you. You are the only human being I have met who can really summon angels and demons. Your attainments in divine law and magic are considered good among the people I have met. I Guess you shouldn't be bewitched by a demon."

"Even if it's in vain, I want to meet again. I can't be satisfied with dreaming about the portrait every day. That devil can turn the people in the painting into reality. He promised me to create the phantom of Michael, satisfying me." my wish."

Beryl stopped advising the bishop, it was the best of his kindness to say so much.The bishop has seen the phantom that the demon created for him, his wish has been fulfilled, and soon the demon will come and take his soul.He is very calm in his heart. He has been pursuing Michael's shadow for 40 years, and once his wish is realized, he has no regrets in his heart.

It was completely dark, and there was a rush of footsteps in an alley, a black, long shadow was reflected on the gray wall at the corner of the alley, and a person ran out from the alley.This man is Michael, and the one in front of him is Lucifer.Michael held a blue light bead in his hand, and they were running towards the direction pointed by the blue light beam.

Michael ran in the wind and rain, lost his way, his coat was soaked in the rain, but he couldn't control that much.A gust of cold wind wrapped in torrential rain slammed into his face, Michael kept walking, and raised his sleeve to wipe the water off his face.He finally stopped under a tree, the light beads in his hands shining brightly.The destination is here, here it is.

There was purple lightning in the sky, and a strange purple-red cloud slowly accumulated in the air, forming the shape of a person for a while, and hovering in the air like a snake for a while.The sound of the horn could be faintly heard in the ear, the sound was far and near, light and heavy, and the cloud finally turned into the shape of a man. The man stepped on the cloud, held a horn in his hand, and made a gesture of blowing the horn. , The horn sound is getting louder and louder.Finally, a man with his upper body naked rushed out of the clouds, fell to the ground, and stood in front of Michael.In his left hand he holds a golden horn, while in his right he holds a sword.

The man knelt on one knee and saluted Lucifer. He lowered his head and said, "I have seen His Majesty Lucifer."

"Botis," Lucifer said, "I want you to hand over that human's soul now, and then return to the 72 Demon God Pillars to accept the seal. If you don't want to, then I won't be polite."

"I have an agreement with that human being. I promise to fulfill his wish, and he also promises to dedicate his soul to me after the wish is fulfilled. This is a contract between us, and even Lord Lucifer cannot interfere. Since the Lord insists on If I break this contract, I have no choice but to risk my life and fight against you. Although I can't beat you, I will not avoid fighting."

Botis is the No.72 demon god among the 17 demon gods. His strength is stronger than other demon gods that Michael has encountered before, but he is facing Lucifer, the master of hell. He has no chance of winning. .But even so, Botis still has to fight Lucifer, because the power of demons comes from the contract signed with others, so they also attach great importance to the contract, and will not easily violate the contract, so it is impossible for Botis to hand over the contract like this. out of the souls of the humans with whom he made a pact.

Botis blew the horn with his left hand, the sound was sharp and piercing, Michael felt dizzy for a while, and he vaguely felt that there was something wrong with the sound of the horn.But Lucifer was not affected at all. When he raised his left hand, a transparent dagger appeared in his hand. The dagger flew towards Botis and pierced into the wrist of his left hand.Botis felt a pain in his hand and stopped the sound of the horn.As soon as the dagger pierced into Botis' wrist, it disappeared, leaving only a bleeding wound.

This wound will not stop bleeding, the wound caused by Lucifer's dagger will not heal, even the devil will bleed.Botis felt a dull pain in his left hand, and he suddenly jumped behind Michael, turning into a snake.This snake is extremely ugly, with a triangular head, spitting out a scarlet snake letter, and foul-smelling saliva from the corner of its mouth.It opened its mouth wide, pressed its fangs against Michael's neck, wrapped its tail around Michael's shoulder, and its eyes were full of malice.

"Your Majesty, if you attack me again, I will bite. Once a human body is injected with my venom, it will immediately freeze." Botis said in a hoarse voice.

But what he did completely angered Lucifer, Lucifer's eyes turned blood-red, and those blood-red eyes stared at Botis. Gradually weakened, he let go of Michael's tail and fell to the ground.Botis felt darkness in front of him, and when he couldn't see anything, Lucifer summoned a golden flame, and the flame burned up along Botis' tail.

Botis felt a piercing pain, and he rolled on the ground, but the flame of Lucifer was still burning on him, and his soul seemed to be burning.Botis's snake face was distorted in pain, his muscles were twitching, and his eyes sunk deep into their sockets.He wanted to beg for mercy, but the pain was so painful that he didn't even have the strength to beg for mercy.

Lucifer's flame scorched Botis' tail. Lucifer didn't want to really burn Botis to death. He retracted the flame, and Botis turned back into a human form, with the skin of both legs turning black.Botis knelt on the ground and begged for Lucifer's forgiveness. He took out a green bead from his chest with his hand and presented it to Lucifer.Lucifer accepted his begging for mercy and sealed him back to the Demon God Pillar.
