“Save the world?”
“Sure.”
Xin agreed to Saeko Busujima’s request without the slightest hesitation.
No matter what the commission was, he would agree first and talk later.
Anyway, when and how it would be completed was up to him.
A warm smile rose on his face as he said considerately:
“I have two plans here, one is rather radical and the other is relatively conservative.
Which one would you like to hear first?”
Could it really be done?
Something like saving the world?
Saeko Busujima’s eyes showed surprise.
She had originally just held a trial attitude, wanting to see how Mr.
Devil would react to this commission.
As a result…
She completely hadn’t expected Mr.
Devil to actually offer two plans!
It seemed that for humans, an apocalyptic crisis sufficient to cause extinction was merely a trivial matter to the Mr.
Devil before her.
Mr.
Devil’s strength was probably even more terrifying than she had imagined.
Besides, Mr.
Devil was much easier to talk to than imagined.
And he was not at all the ugly figure described in myths.
He was so different from the devils in her impressions.
Temporarily casting aside her chaotic thoughts, Saeko Busujima thought for a moment and said, “Let’s hear the radical one first.”
“The current crisis in your world should be these Zombies, right?”
Xin walked up to the window, staring at the swaying and crowded Zombies downstairs.
“That is right!”
Saeko Busujima nodded, her voice somewhat subdued, “This crisis suddenly broke out this afternoon.”
She turned her head, stared at Xin, and said earnestly,
“I do not know the exact situation of the world right now, but once this highly contagious virus breaks out, the rate of spread definitely will not be slow.”
“In the worst case, it might affect the entire world!”
As a young person, she also knew about zombie movies and the like.
She just did not expect that something humans fantasized about would one day become a reality.
Thinking of Zombies roaming all over the world, Saeko Busujima fell silent for a moment.
“Plus, even with this kind of crisis happening, no military has appeared until now.”
She had already prepared for the worst.
“It is fine.”
Xin said casually, “Even if the whole world turns into this state, as long as I scrub the surface of the earth once, would that not be enough?”
Well, with Xin’s current strength as a High-Class Devil, he probably could not do it.
But not being able to do it now does not mean he will not be able to do it in the future.
There is no time limit for saving the world anyway. Read this novel at g.com for the best experience.
He could completely wait until he became a Demon King, a Transcendent, or even a stronger existence before coming back to save the world.
Before that, this Dead Body World had better honestly become nourishment for his familiars.
Scrub…
the surface?
Is that what she understood it to mean?
Saeko Busujima’s eye twitched as she silently stared at Xin.
There was completely no sign of a joke.
Even humanity’s ultimate weapons could not possibly achieve the level of scrubbing the earth’s surface, right?
But…
If it were Mr.
Devil, maybe he could?
However.
“If you really did that—”
Saeko Busujima said faintly, “Human survivors might also die out completely, right?”
Along with those Zombies.
Xin shrugged, “Then that is none of my business.”
This style of doing things really is that of a devil.
Clearly his appearance is the same as a human’s, and even…
Saeko Busujima glanced at the name tag on Xin’s clothes.
[Shuchiin Academy].
Do devils have to go to school too?
Pushing this question to the bottom of her heart, Saeko Busujima decisively abandoned this relatively radical plan.
“Let us talk about the conservative plan instead.”
She would definitely choose this one, huh.
Xin’s smile became even more amiable.
“This one is even simpler.”
He turned to look at Saeko Busujima, the corners of his mouth slightly curving up,
“I will bestow upon you the power to grow strong enough to save the world.
By then, you can naturally think about how to save this world according to your own preferences.”
Xin had only two purposes in this world.
A fixed experience-farming dungeon for his familiars.
Recruiting familiars.
Saeko Busujima was naturally an indispensable talent.
Hearing the second plan, Saeko Busujima froze in place.
To be honest, she actually had not thought about saving the world at all.
At least not right now.
After all, her primary goal right now was to survive.
Therefore, in the second plan, the power sufficient to save the world attracted her.
She needed power!
She needed the power to survive in the current world!
And the power to protect others!
Shizuka Marikawa: Meow meow meow?
She still had a dazed expression right now.
Classmate Busujima is discussing…
how to save the world with Mr.
Devil?
A devil?
Save the world?
Putting these two together—
Are you sure this is not some kind of joke of the century?
The key is that Mr.
Devil actually gave a serious plan!
Mr.
Devil is a good person!
Shizuka Marikawa suddenly understood.
Saeko Busujima: “…”
If not for her care, Teacher Shizuka probably would have died at the hands of surviving humans even if she did not die among the piles of Zombies.
At that time, dying among the piles of Zombies might even be better.
Humans in the doomsday…
Saeko Busujima sighed, then said firmly, “Then let us go with the second plan!”
The power to grow strong enough to save the world should be able to let them survive, right?
“You decided so quickly?”
“Do you not want to ask what the price is?”
Saeko Busujima’s gaze was calm; hearing the word price did not even cause any ripples.
There is no such thing as a free lunch dropping from the sky; that was a truth she understood at age five.
Let alone trading with an existence like the legendary devil.
Shizuka Marikawa asked in surprise, “Eh?
Is there still a price to pay?”
Well, a truth she knew at five, some people still do not understand approaching thirty.
Saeko Busujima automatically ignored Shizuka Marikawa, looked straight at Xin, and said solemnly,
“If Mr.
Devil fancies it, everything about me can be taken away.”
“Whether it is body, soul, emotions, or memories!”
She only needed power!
And live on together with her friends!
Even if she had to give up everything for it!
Perhaps once she really grew to the point of being able to save the world, she could save the world along the way.
Xin was silent for a moment, then grinned.
“What a good resolution.”
“But rest assured, what I need is simply you.”
Saeko Busujima froze for a moment, then broke into a smile.
“Thank you for your favor.”
“From now on, I am your possession.”
