Chapter 84: Beast of Ferocity
Lilith had Luna watch the surrounding area with Eve and everyone from the Shadow Troops. He did not know what kind of things the Goddess placed in her weird Mystery Box and Egg; who knows if it was some kind of daemon attracting item?
Despite being friends with the Goddess, Lilith had no plan of trusting her, "I don't accept something with blind trust." She said to herself as she enjoyed the wine the Goddess gave her without a second thought.
"Good thing I didn't give this to the others. They might usurp me to have this in their hands. Hmm, should I get some of them addicted to it and get to bow before me? Hehehehe, that's a rather good idea." Lilith thought of many ways to use the Divine Wine. It was mostly torture. It was horrible, yes, but it had a silver lining...
She didn't only think of using torture on daemons but also planned to do them to humans. It was a fair amount of suffering between the races… at least she wasn't racist. In her eyes, everyone deserves to be tortured in one way or another.
Yes, Lilith was truly a scum…but she was a good kind of scum, so she gets a pass in the eyes of the Goddess.
While drinking the Divine Wine, Lilith stomped her feet and encased herself in a dome of earth. The earth would act as defense and would most likely stop the spread of the Divine Wine's aroma.
Lilith controlled herself, and before she can get any more intoxicated and create new ways of torture, "I just thought of a good way to torment someone using wine…hehe." she managed to create a new one while still sober. Good for her.
While she was still sober, Lilith went ahead and opened her Inventory to return the Divine Wine. She kept one more cup for herself and then picked the Mystery Box.
[] Do you want to open the Mystery Box? Y/N?
"Yes," Lilith answered as her seriousness returned. A golden box appeared before her, it was floating in the air, and then the ribbon tied around it began to unfurl. The blue ribbon disappeared and the box opened.
[] A one-on-one discussion with this Goddess! (Acquired)
"That FUCKER!—" she saw the prize as being robbed of something that was rightfully hers, "She gave me something useless again!?"
Lilith saw the line and felt irritated. He was on the verge of destroying everything when the price suddenly started disappearing. It was replaced by a note from the Goddess,
[Got you, didn't I?] The first line made Lilith want to rip the Goddess into many pieces. Thankfully, it continued, […don't be too angry, I'll give you something in exchange for conquering this land for me.]
The note was prepared when Lilith managed to conquer the Forest of Beast. But as it was currently destroyed, it felt like the Goddess was rubbing salt on her wounds. She had the urge to go on a rampage.
It may have the Divine Wine's effect, but she was having more and more violent thoughts. It was either that, or she was really just infuriated with the Goddess.
[This is your prize for real now.]
[] Seraph's Outer Feather (Consumable) (Acquired)
[This is one of my Seraph's feathers. It holds the capacity of amplifying any spell's effectivity by 10 times. It is one of the greatest gifts I can gift you. PS. It would disappear after a single-use, so I am warning you not to use it for something useless. Also, don't even think about using it as a material; if you use it to create some overpowered item, I'll seize that item and break it in front of you.]
Lalit clicked her tongue as the Goddess managed to guess what she would do to such an item. But then again, the feather would be useful if she ever faces someone or something she couldn't win against.
'This is passable.' She said with a smile on her face. Currently, the Seraph's Outer Feather would be her most valuable item next to the Divine Wine.
She then moved on to the next best thing, the Mystery egg.
[Do you want to hatch the Mystery Egg? Y/N?]
Lilith only had to think yes for the Egg to mysteriously appear her. She smiled as it glowed a mysterious aureate light; her expectation reached all new heights as she read the description of the Egg.
[Mystery Egg: An Egg that houses one of Goddess Letza's beloved creation. It is something that had never contended for the position of Demon Emperor, and only a handful of beings had managed to fight against it. It was a beast of true terror. It appeared in many tales of many worlds and is one of the most ferocious to ever appear in this world.
[It is capable of truly killing a Phoenix and its very presence shakes the core of even the strongest of Dragons.]
The Egg cracked, and golden rays of light shot out from the inside. Lilith had to cover her eyes to not be blinded by its radiance. And as Lilith felt her eyes hurting, she felt it, the mysterious pressure coming from the being that appeared from the Egg.
Lilith saw it, the ferocious being said to have made the creatures of Myth that was the Dragons and even slay the unkillable Phoenixes.
After thousands of years, it has finally appeared on the world, the one and only being of ferocity…
[Cerberus LVL 1 (Mythical)]
"A puppy?"
"Arf!"
Its three heads barked in unison.
It was also smaller than Lilith.
…She felt scammed.
