Book 2: Chapter 84: Luck’s a part of strength
“Are you sure you want to do this, oh great Lilith?” Sae asked in a serious expression, “It’s extremely dangerous.”
“Naturally. Although it’s wasteful to kill a chicken with a sledgehammer, I really don’t wish to die here. That would be more embarrassing.” I replied while extending my hands out, signaling Sae to stop trying to dissuade me.
However, Sae was persistent. Durango and his disgustingly swollen pig face jumped out of nowhere only to be swiftly knocked away by Sae, all while holding my hands. Using a sincere gaze, she stared at me and said: “Instead of killing a chicken with a sledgehammer, this is more like using lighting from heaven to roast it! It was not easy for me to free myself from the curse of being a wandering spirit and I have no intention of dying a tragic death so soon.”
“Aren’t you the cause? If you were able to destroy her, would I have to do this? I’m also scared, you know!”
“Then there’s no other way. Speaking of which, oh great Lilith, if you can find me a living container, destroying her would be as easy as waving my hand.”Vissit for new novels
“God knows where I can find a so-called ‘living container’ for you. I thought that you could just grab one of those idiots along the road.”
Sending a kick to stomp one of the young slave girl’s beautiful faces, Sae snorted and said in frustration: “Isn’t that your duty as my master, oh great Lilith?”
“Duty my a̲s̲s̲! You should have dealt with that b̲u̲l̲l̲s̲h̲i̲t̲ before handing it to me! Furthermore, you’re getting more and more arrogant, you rascal.”
Shoving Sae away, I said in an unquestionable tone: “I’ve already made up my mind. There’s no need for you to try and persuade me anymore.”
Sae shattered 4 enemy foot soldiers into bits with extreme displeasure, before retreating far away: “You have to be careful, oh great Lilith. You better not hurt your friends by accident.”
I replied in a reassuring tone: “Don’t worry. Though... up until now, I’ve yet to shoot anyone in the knee. But it’ll be better than exhausting yourself to death fighting those illusions.”
Sae mumbled softly: “I’ll rather be exhausted to death...”
“What did you say?”
“Nothing.”

“Okay, don’t let those illusionary figures come near me, Sae. I’m about to act.”
As light burst forth from the patterns, an unspeakable feeling surged through my heart. All of the sudden, my brain crashed like a computer, causing me to feel as though I’d been detached from reality for a good few seconds.
“What...what’s going on? Why am I not dead?”
Rapidly composing myself, I discovered that there wasn’t a single scratch present on my entire body.
“Could that Demigod level Scroll be fake? There’s not a single scratch on me.”
“Of course it’s real.” Sae’s voice suddenly rang out, scaring me: “Not only is it real, but you also got sucked into her trap.”
Turning my head around, I discovered Sae wearing a strange expression as she squatted by my side. At this moment, a purple haired girl who was tied up in a bondage-styled knot laid right beneath her feet. That girl was the self proclaimed cruelest of all, Ruth Devia. Furthermore, for god knows what reason, there wasn’t any reserved look on her face. On the contrary, she wore a stupefied expression as she looked around.
What the hell happened?
“What’s going on here!!! What just happened?!!” Before I had the time to reply, the purple haired girl that was being held beneath Sae’s foot shrieked out in a loud voice, “Why am I here, what did you do to me?”
“Be obedient and stop moving.” Sae gave Devia a light kick, causing the latter to twitch violently, as though she had been struck with intense pain. It was only then that I realized that there were strange iron needles that had pierced various vital areas of her body. Not only did they seal her, they would cause intense pain, akin to being stabbed by tens of thousands of knives with even the slightest twitch.
“Exactly what the hell has happened?”
“What else?” Sae shrugged her shoulder, “Just as you can see, I’ve captured her.”
“I’m asking you how you captured her!”
“Hmm, about that...that’s the effect of your Demigod level Magic~”
Effect...of my magic? However, didn’t I remember seeing...that scroll bounce back? Even if it was effective, it should have targeted me in the end, right?
However, I’m alright, and our enemy has miraculously been captured.
Unable to stifle her laugh, Sae replied: “It’s all due to your good luck, oh great Lilith. What you tossed was actually a time-stopping magic that caused time within a 100 meter radius to stop completely for three whole minutes. If you’d used even the weakest offensive orientated scroll, I’m afraid I’d be digging your grave right now.”
Sae proceeded to give another kick towards Devia, causing the latter to cry out in pain: “As for this person...the area of effect for that magic shouldn’t have been able to reach her. However, she was attracted by your cries of misery, oh great Lilith, causing her to inch closer, luring her close enough to be affected too, leaving herself open to my attack.”
