Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid

Chapter 434: The Non-Existent Road to Salvation

Six-Winged Seraph?

When Bob heard her ravings, he couldnt even ridicule her naivety and just silently stared at her trembling spiderweb wings.

Seraphs were said to be messengers of god who specialized in the administration of punishment, they had six wings and held flaming swords.

They were cynical, punished evil and promoted good, and advocates of justice, but they were also powerful, autocratic, and feared.

Seraphs represented the purest goodness, but also the purest evil, because only evil can bring justice and help the gods punish the sinners!

So, are you that feared seraph? You want to punish us sinners in stead of the Goddess, so you learned black magic? Snow, you

Bob finally saw through this little girl, she wasnt a high and mighty Saintess, nor a seraph that eliminated evil and promoted good, in Bobs eyes, she was but a scarred child hiding in the corner.

When Bob thought about that he suddenly laughed out loud and didnt hide his disdain at all.

Hahaha, Snow, dont make me laugh! A Seraph? I cant believe you said that! Who do you think you are! Youre but a precocious little brat! You want to represent justice? And punish the sinners? Dont be foolish! But seeing how cute you are, Ill see you as an angel but not a Seraph, more like a fallen angel!

What did you say? Bastard, try saying that again!?

Haha, did I hit your sore spot? Bob laughed and shook his head, Snow, let me ask you, have you heard of this if you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you!

Hah!?

I dont know what you went through, or what obsessions you hold, but even if youre blind, you should take a good look at yourself to see what you have become!

I-I dont understand what youre saying

Snow clenched her fists and trembled, which lead her winglike spiderwebs to tremble nonstop just like her inner turmoil.

Do you really not understand? No, youre just feigning ignorance, just like how youve been lying to yourself and others all this time Okay, since you cant see, then let me tell you. Snow, even if you were once an angel, youve now fallen! Look at yourself, your fingers wrapped in spiderwebs, how are you anything like a pure Saintess? Youve already become an evil witch!

Shut up! Im not! Shut up!

Snow covered her ears and didnt want to hear any more of his nonsense, but she couldnt help but reflect on how she got to where she is

How did she initially become a Saintess?

Thats right, she racked her brains, made large accomplishments, caught demon spies, and brought down the pedophile bishop with her own power and finally obtained the prophecy to obtain the power and status she dreamed of.

At the same time, her hands were stained with fresh blood.

She killed sinners, but also sacrificed innocents.

She wasnt weak anymore, she got power, status, and authority, but she wasnt that initial likable cute girl anymore. She became a feared witch and even learned black magic and became a black magician that the Goddess was disgusted with.

She became mature, cold, calculative, and could easily deal with any situation and even lay traps playing with her enemies within her palms, but she forever lost that valuable innocence and holiness.

She walked too far on a road without darkness, but what was waiting at the end of the road wasnt light.

Snow, you who walked onto the evil path are the true heretic! Youre a fallen angel, a hideous monster, youre the sinner that needs to be punished!

Every single one of Bobs words struck Snows heart.

N-no! Im not a monster, Im not!!!

Snow couldnt control her rage, her hands formed claws and her veins bulged. At the same time, the webs surrounding her shout out towards that bastard in the sky!

But it was too far, Bob only needed to move a bit to avoid most of the webs and since Snow couldnt see, she couldnt accurately shoot it at him.

Snow, dont you regret it? Do you have anyone you care about? Do you want them to see how youre now? Look at how hysterical you are now do you think theyll still like you?

Mind your own business! Die!!! I was showing mercy earlier, now Im going to crush you!!!

Snow hollered and then used all her power to throw her webs again, which were still easily evaded.

Snow, are you still obstinate in your ways?

I already told you to shut up!

Dont be foolish Snow, you cant continue on like this! At this point, you have only one way to go, the only road to redemption.

After firing off his mouth, Bob finally threw out the bait when Snows mental state was at her weakest.

Road to redemption?

Ah! thats right! The goddess doesnt welcome heretics, but we do!

W-what do you mean?

Hehe, dont ask when you clearly know. Youre a Saintess, trusted by the pope and proficient in black magic, an outstanding talent!

When he got to the point, it was hard for him to suppress his anticipation. If it wasnt due for him being afraid of Snow suddenly throwing the webs, he would surely jump down to hug Snow and get intimate with this outstanding little girl.

Snow, you dont even know how much potential you have! Within the church, you dont dare reveal your true fallen angel side, but if you come with me, Ill give you a spacious stage so that you can become the most dazzling angel!

When Snow heard that, her rampaging heart calmed down. She wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and took a couple of deep breaths and finally understood what he meant.

So you want me to join the enlightened society?

Precisely! Is there a greater calling than saving the world? The original sin is upon us, whether its you, me, the hero, or the holy light church and the four kingdom alliance none of us can stop it, only the enlightened is humanitys last hope!

Oh, is that so, you guys were that powerful, huh.

Dont believe me? No problem! As long as you are willing to join us, with your strength and talent, the apostle will surely give you a rank that wont be lower than mine no! That wont be enough! If you join, Snow you will be the next apostle!

Then I really have to thank you. Snow snorted disapprovingly.

Hm? What, you dont want to? Bob was confused at her response.

He was indeed truly trying to get Snow to join them, when he knew she was a black magician, he knew that she was a rare genius. Being a Saintess was a waste of her talents, if she could join them, not only could he successfully retrieve the black ore, he can even rope in a genius!

But at the last minute, Snows attitude suddenly changed.

He didnt understand, his words clearly got through her defenses and she was on the verge of a breakdown, so why did she suddenly change?

Hehe, Ill admit, you almost got me.

Then why did you

Because I suddenly realized that you dont understand, you dont know anything. Snow smiled like she was ridiculing him or herself who wavered.

It was true that his words got to her, it was like she was naked in front of him. Bob pierced through her pretense and exposed the darkness within her.

The only road to redemption.

How pitiful and cowardly Snow is, with how many failures she had, how could she not look to a road to redemption that was filled with light? So when Bob tossed the bait, she almost got hooked.

But unfortunately, the road Bob gave her wasnt the one she wanted.

Completely falling into the darkness and joining traitors wasnt true redemption, even if shes already a fallen angel and will one day meet the Goddesss judgment, she still had to complete her mission!

I once talked about this with one of you, archbishop Anderson do you know him?

That gluttonous fool Anderson he once tried roping you in?

Hm, he also said crazy stuff like saving the world and asked me why I was moving in the darkness alone if it was to become a god or a beautiful angle like you mentioned.

Then how did you respond? Bob nervously gulped and awaited her answer.

I told him that I dont want to save the world, and I want to be the god of the new world even less. Theres only one simple reason Im doing this.

Whats the reason?

Hehe do you really want to know?

Of course!

Okay, Ill tell you but, I immediately killed Anderson after he got the answer.

Snow laughed and silently controlled her spiderwebs and looked up to respond.

So, Ill definitely tell you before you take your last breath!
