Chapter 160 I Am a Demon, I Don’t Need Feelings!
Chapter 160 I Am a Demon, I Don’t Need Feelings!
To be honest, Roy was under a lot of mental pressure facing a Horseman of the Apocalypse.
When he first came to this world, he was still a middle-rank demon, so he did not dare to meet War, one of the Horsemen, and had avoided him early. Now, Roy had become a high-rank demon. Although his strength had risen another level, he was still unable to deal with a Horseman of the Apocalypse. Take Death, the leader of the Horsemen of the Apocalypse, as an example. He had easily killed many demon lords and fought against Demon King Samael at his peak.
As the only female among the Four Horsemen, Fury was not a pushover. Although her overall strength could not match up to Death, it was obvious that even if Roy and Julia, two high-rank demons, worked together, they would not be her opponent. Therefore, Roy was not stupid enough to fight Fury. He waved his hand. “Don’t worry, Horseman! I have nothing to do with the Seven Deadly Sins. In fact, I’m only here to make a deal with you!”
“Oh?! What kind of deal?” Fury placed her hands on her hips. “What do you want from me?”
“A... Secret!” Roy spread his hands. “Well, maybe it’s not a secret. After all, this so-called secret may be something that all Four Horsemen, or all the nephilim, know!”
“Huh?!” Fury frowned slightly. Her intuition told her that this demon in front of her seemed really different.
Roy ignored her expression and continued, “In exchange, I will use an equivalent secret. I can guarantee that this secret is definitely worth it to you!”
Fury walked around Roy, carefully sizing him up, and also looked at Julia, who was standing beside Roy. Julia stared at Fury with caution. On the other hand, Roy was calm and let her examine him.
As for Vulgrim, he was hiding in the Purgatory Space and did not appear because he did not know what Roy wanted to do with the Horseman. It would be bad if they fought. If he appeared together, he might be affected, so the timid Vulgrim only dared to listen quietly in the alternate space.
After circling around, Fury stopped. A watcher from the Charred Council was floating beside her. On the strange face, several pairs of eyes were also staring at Roy, but she did not speak. “What do you want?” Fury said. “Demon, say it! I hate it when people keep me in suspense!”
Roy smiled slightly, stretched out his arm, and pulled Julia against him. He hugged her in his embrace and said, “I want to have a descendant of this woman. But as you’ve seen, I am a demon, and she is a fallen angel, so I really want to know what must be done to be able to give birth to descendants like you nephilim!” Dumbfounded! Julia, who was being held in Roy’s arms, was completely dumbfounded when she heard this!
Since Roy had not mentioned anything before, Julia had always been quite curious about why Roy wanted to find the Horseman of the Apocalypse. She remembered very clearly that when Roy escaped from the main battlefield, he planned to avoid War, another Horseman. For this matter, she had even regarded Roy as a deserter and wanted to fulfill her responsibility as a barrier troop.
Unexpectedly, he took the initiative to find another Horseman, and it was actually for...
In essence, fallen angels were still angels. She and demons were two different species, so from the beginning, Julia only felt that Roy was slightly different from other demons. In addition, Roy had saved her once, so she felt that Roy could be trusted and never had any other thoughts about Roy.
So when she suddenly heard Roy say that he wanted to have a descendant with her, her first thought was that it was absurd!
The kind of absurd thought of ‘I treat you as a friend, and you actually want to sleep with me?!’
“You... you...” Being hugged by Roy, Julia raised her head and stared at him, not knowing what to say. Finally, she reacted and said, “How can you do this? We have no feelings between us!”
Angels had more contact with humans than denoms, so they were more accustomed to human behavior. When they procreated, they would consider emotional factors. Julia was a fallen angel. Although her past memories were gone, she was exactly the same as an angel on this point.
In the end, Roy said coldly, “I’m a demon. Why do I need feelings?! Just do it!”
What he said was so reasonable that Julia did not know how to refute him. She had stayed in the Abyss and witnessed how demons reproduced. In the past, she had merely watched with cold eyes, thinking that she might have to follow Samael for the rest of her life and that this kind of thing would not happen for her. But she did not expect it to appear before her so suddenly now.
Therefore, she could only stare at Roy blankly without saying anything, her mind in a mess...
What she did not know was that Roy had brought her to find the Horseman of the Apocalypse for this very reason. He needed a perfect excuse and shield. After all, he was only a high-rank demon, and looking into creating nephilim was something that only a demon king like Lilith would do. It seemed too ridiculous. If he said it like this, it would definitely raise the suspicion of the Horsemen or other demons, but it was different with Julia.
All the demons living in the Abyss knew that starting from high-rank demon, bloodlines were very important. Now that Roy was a high-rank demon, it was reasonable for him to want to have a powerful descendant with a fallen angel...
Perhaps in the Abyss, there were other high-rank demons or demon lords that had secretly tried such things... Julia was stupefied. Vulgrim, who was hiding in the Purgatory Space, was also shocked. Only Fury became angry after hearing Roy’s words!
“Damn demon! Be careful with your words!” Fury raised the whip in her hand and pointed at Roy. “I treat what you said as an insult to the nephilim!”
It was not surprising that Fury’s reaction was so fierce. In fact, the nephilim had always been very embarrassed about their bloodline. They were bloodthirsty and warlike and possessed great strength. This was not false. But at the same time, because they had two opposing racial bloodlines, they were not welcomed anywhere. Be it angels or demons, they were cursing and mocking the nephilim! Even though they had human appearances, humans did not think that they were a part of their race.
This cursing and mocking were both about discrimination and envy of their powerful strength...
This was why demons secretly tried to have offspring with angels. On the surface, demons were cursing this hybrid bloodline, but their worship of strength secretly drove them to try.
Roy was currently acting such a role. However, saying this in front of a nephilim was disrespectful, so it was no wonder why Fury reacted so intensely.
After all, perhaps the curse of angels and demons really came into effect. The nephilim always had tragic fates. The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse also could not escape, and they had killed their own people with their own hands. From now on, there were only four of them left, and they even carried the infamy of being traitors over this. Although they had great strength, they had been reduced to becoming tools of the Charred Council, being thugs for it.
Seeing that Fury was about to attack, Roy was not flustered at all and said to her, “Don’t be so hasty. I really have no intention of offending you, Horseman. Also, don’t you want to hear what secret I’ll tell you in exchange?” “Okay, go ahead!” Fury resisted her urge to attack and replied, “If the secret you want to tell me is just some trivial scam, then I will personally take off your head and cut that fellow below you into pieces. At that time, I’ll see how you can create a descendant with this fallen angel!”
Damn, so cruel?! Roy broke out in cold sweat.
However, he did not show it at all. “What I want to talk about is a secret about the end!”
“A secret about the end?” Fury was stunned for a moment before she flew into a rage. “What the hell is this topic?!”
“Horseman, you didn’t hear wrongly. The end!” Roy let go of Julia. “A secret about the end of all things in the Infinite Worlds. This world, the Heaven world where the angels are, the alternate space where the White City is, the Black Stone alternate space where Demon King Samael is, and even the worlds where all the ancient races live will welcome the end! The Charred Council and the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse have been working to maintain the balance, but it’s useless and futile!”
Hearing Roy’s words, Fury became a little serious, but she still pretended to be disdainful. “Are you talking about this End War? How ridiculous, what kind of end is this?”
“No, I’m not talking about the End War!” Roy shook his head, pointed his finger at the ground, and strengthened his tone. “I’m talking about the power you call ‘depravation’! Horseman, you must understand the meaning of this word, right?”
At this moment, not only did Julia cover her mouth in surprise, but even Fury’s face finally changed!
Without a doubt, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, who listened to the orders of the Charred Council and maintained the balance in various worlds, had definitely heard of the word ‘depravation’. It was the same for Fury. In fact, she had noticed long ago that many ancient races of the past had disappeared in the long river of time over the years!
In the beginning, Fury did not pay much attention to it, thinking that this was caused by the natural law of the survival of the fittest. But then she discovered that not only did these ancient races disappear, but even the space and the world they lived in had also disappeared! When she killed some demons and angels, she had vaguely heard these enemies mention the word depravation and gradually realized that this seemed to be a very terrifying power...
However, this did not attract too much of Fury’s attention. After all, she had not seen with her own eyes what depravation was.
But after hearing this word from Roy, she had to take it seriously because she felt that what this demon said might be true...
“Tell me everything you know, demon!” Fury said to Roy.
Roy smiled. “Let’s agree first. If I say it, it means that the deal has been reached. Do you agree?”
Fury thought for a while before finally nodding. “Okay. I accept this deal! Tell me all the secrets that you know about depravation. In return, I will tell you the secrets about the birth of the nephilim...”
“Good. Then come and sign this contract!” Roy said as a demon contract appeared in front of Fury.
“It seems like the credibility of the Horsemen of the Apocalypse isn’t worth anything in your eyes!” Fury mocked Roy.
“I can’t defeat you, so I can only guarantee it with a contract!” Roy was not annoyed.
Fury read the content of the contract carefully and found nothing wrong, so she quickly placed her hand on it and signed her name.
Seeing that the contract was established, Roy was very satisfied, so he finally opened his mouth to say, “The ‘depravation’ mentioned in this world actually has another name in other worlds, the ‘Void’! And all this must start from a place called the Pantheon...”
Next, Great Duper Roy began to tell Fury about the biography of a character known as ‘Sargeras’...
