Chapter 89 - 22: The Whole World as Enemy (3) (Second Update)
"I must remind you, summoning and controlling one hundred Undead Knights is already your limit. Any more would exceed your capacity. And I am not permitted to offer you help," Catherine’s voice echoed in Gray’s mind.
"Don’t worry, the Holy Spirit does not allow it, but the Demon Lord does. As long as you are willing to fully embrace darkness, I will lend you my power. Perhaps not only that, but the Demon Lord will also send more powerful demons to assist you. You could summon thousands of Undead Knights, and humans united across the continent wouldn’t be your match! You could do anything you want, and no one would be able to stop you!" Vivian’s voice also resonated in Gray’s mind.
"Gray would never turn to darkness!" Catherine retorted.
"Really? If it were me, I would turn to darkness. You abandoned him, and yet you still demand unwavering faith from him?" Vivian sneered.
"We did not abandon him!"
"Refusing to help isn’t abandoning?"
"You!"
"Gray, listen to me. Such justice isn’t worth defending. You bestow justice upon others, but who gives you justice? Embrace the darkness! Our Demon Lord is very fond of you! We’re willing to support you in many endeavors, like cracking the skull of the Pope!"
"Shut up!"
"You shut up! You didn’t show up when you should have, and now you have the gall to talk! Hmph! Even a succubus can’t stand it!"
Gray stood in the cathedral, receiving the greetings of the residents of Lion King City, while Catherine and Vivian’s voices continued their noisy argument in his mind.
