What viciousness from the Demon King.
　Even if it is not what you want, how could you deny it completely in this way?

　Like a parasite, Bezetan, the former Four Heavenly Kings, could only exist in this world by clinging to the surface of others' bodies.

　Its existence is still tolerable, though, since there were Ida and Drismegian from "Heaven and Earth" who were also dead, but were free to exist in this world...

''Geehahahahahaha!　You seem to understand!　You got it, kid!　How does it feel to have your revenge in front of you?　You've had your life ruined by me!''

　The mannequin is no longer just a device for spreading malice.

''And, Bezelia!　My nephew!　Now you've got it!　He'll never help you in the future!　After all, you're his avenging relation!　You killed my mother and ruined my life, and the bitterness that comes with it comes with you!
....
'Now, all right, out with it and back with me!　There is no reconciliation!　The human race and the demon race can only fight and destroy each other forever!　And I, Bezethan, the "Muddy Waters", will borrow your body to take credit for this time and leave your name as the ultimate Great Four Heavenly Kings!　You're building up a pile of the human race's corpses!

　Bezetan yelled.

　This is the kind of person who deserves to go to hell for their actions during their lives.
　No, it doesn't matter now.....

"Shut up, leftovers. The dead have no say in the activities of the living.
"Oh?

　He reacted bluntly to my words.

'You're a little old to be chirping like a little old, aren't you?　Do you hate me for this?　You want to avenge your mother, don't you?　Will you wipe me out with this incompetent nephew?　Hmm?
You're a little boy. I'm older than you are now. You ought to respect your elders, don't you, young man?
"Never say no more...?

　I think I've gained some life experience befitting my age.

　I'm sure you'll find a lot of people who have a lot of experience in this field.
　A ghost, after all.

You don't even seem to know how much this world has moved since your death.
What did you say?
Let me tell you something.

　You've always thought of Lady Granberza as a rival, haven't you?

"After your death, Master Grand Baaza served as the Fourth Heavenly King for thirty years, retiring safely to his final resting place. His accomplishments during his tenure were innumerable and will surely be remembered for centuries to come.

　Unlike you.

After the death of Bezetan in Muddy Waters, no one remembered his name.
　Not even my relative Bezelia could remember it.

"That's about as far as you'll go, boy.
"What the hell did you say?
''You should know your own status more accurately. It's true that you are the Four Heavenly Kings, but if you go back in time, there were hundreds of Four Heavenly Kings in the past. You're just one of them.

　He's not an extraordinary genius like Lady Granberza.

''What do you mean...?　I'm the strongest of the Four Heavenly Kings, more than Grand Barzas, more than anyone else...?
''After being so easily defeated by my father, who was a brave man?
.....
Yes, you were defeated and killed by my father, Alanziel. You're not worthy of your name. You are not worthy of your name.

　The best you could have done was to kill your mother, who had just given birth and was not well enough.

　That's unforgivable to me personally, but it's already been paid for by Alanziel.
　I'm going to beat you to death for being a criminal.

So there's no point in not forgiving you now. You've been condemned. Condemned and murdered, gone from the world. You are just the residue of that condemnation. As a residue, you can only exist in this world by possessing Bezelia.
"No!　I'm the greatest of the four heavens!　Far more than Grand Barzas and the like!　What do you want to say to me?

　The clinging tailings are upsetting.
　The gaze from me is colder than I expected and I'm confused.

''Haha........?　I get it!　You are too afraid to move your body in front of me, the avenger of your parents, aren't you?　I should be avenged, but I can't!　You're just twisting some inane logic to justify it!　Isn't it?
You're not your enemy anymore. You're the remnants of an avenger. You don't deserve to be avenged again.

　I told you so, but you're the one who makes idiots say it over and over again.

　I'm sorry, Demon King-sama.
　You probably expected me to be enraged when I was shown this, and you expected me to scrape Bezelia from the main body.

　I'm not young enough to lose myself with this level of bad taste.

''But there's no doubt that it's unpleasant.

　This residue will be completely obliterated.
　The possessed Bezelia remains safe.

　That level of manipulation is something that I, who gained the power of 'Heaven' after being trained by Granbaza-sama Alanziel-san, have no control over.

''Go away, tailings. You're too filthy to be in this world.''
Wait.

　It was Bezelia who stopped the Hermes sword from being raised.
　He should be the one who was most annoyed to be wearing this kind of filth, though.

''I can't let you erase this thing,''
What did you say?
I won't let you get away with this. I'm going to have to make this thing go away myself...!

　Bezelia's hands are filled with magic.

"You may not know it, but my people have been working against you in a monstrous way. It's really rude to think that you'd be willing to put that behind you. If you two make amends, I'll make amends too!

　What's going on here?

　Isn't the magic in your hands - on a smaller scale, but isn't that the corrosive magic you dipped into to be the deciding factor in the fight just now?
　With such an extremely dangerous thing in my hands........
　

''Aaaaaaaaahhhh?

　And it was also the part where Bezetan, who had become a mannequin, resided.

　Are you trying to corrode the possessed person's face by chipping away at it?

"How reckless?　If you just want to scrape off the residue, that's fine...?

　The problem is the part of the tailings where the manacles reside.

　Of all places, the left chest of all places.......that's right above the heart.
　If you make a mistake, it could lead to instant death.

Stop it!　You'll be safer if I can handle it...!
That's not good enough.　I have to fulfill my responsibilities...!

　The reconciliation of human and demon.
　That's Bezalia's goal.

"A little risk isn't unreasonable for someone to ask you for help. That's what you ask for when you ask someone for something. It's not just about making things harder for them.
"ohhhhhhh!　Stop, stop, stop, stop!

　The corrosion from the magic spreads through Bezelia's skin.
　It's not just a matter of time before you find yourself in the middle of the night.

''Wait!　Wait, wait, wait!　I am your uncle!　How dare you show disrespect to your elder blood relative!　You're still a proud demon lord?
It's because they're so proud that they can't tolerate outsiders like you. It's because they're my brothers and sisters that I have to condemn them.
"Stop being stupid!　You know what I'm talking about!　Inhabit me, and my magic will become your power!　I can control the magic of two people!　Are you willing to throw away your deliciousness and downgrade your power?　At the risk of your life?　That's just foolishness!
I have come for a world where the human and demon races are reconciled without strife...!

　Bezelia's skin gurgles and bubbles.
　The skin breaks and a pus-like white liquid spills out and falls to the ground.
　The stench stings your nose.

For that reason, you have to cut off all hatred from your own hands. Those who are not prepared to do so are not qualified to speak of peace!
'What do you mean by that, you don't know what you're talking about?　!　Stop it!　I'm the Fourth Heavenly King ah!''

　The residue of the outcast disappears.
　They were rotten and muddy, becoming the filth they deserved to be.

''No, no, no, no........?　I didn't come back to life for this...!　He has acquired the body of a foolish descendant, this time to become the ultimate Four Heavenly Kings and leave his name behind...!　Far surpassing Granbaza and others...?

　No matter how many times you reincarnate, we won't let that kind of nonsense happen.
　You'll be annihilated without a care in the world.

　You don't even have to have a soul to continue to exist.

"What?　Hiiiii........?

　After completely rotting off the manhood pox on her chest, Bezelia falls down.
　His whole body is sweating with sludge and his ragged breath is about to fade away.

　I rush to catch his body and support him.

'Medic!　How many people in the army of the Dark Lord have access to healing magic?　Or a chest of pills from an adventurer!　Hurry!

　Bezelia's chest was in a terrible state of decay.
　The depths of her ribs were about to be exposed at any moment.

''Until it gets this bad...?
''Because those who don't pay for the fallout are not qualified to talk about ideals.......?

　You look like you're about to die, but your eyes don't lose their sparkle.
　If it was a bad idea, he could have really died........

''................I lost.

　I couldn't help but be motivated by this much faith.

"I would like to think, too, how wonderful it would be to live in a world without conflict.

　I'm sure the Demon King will be opposed to this, but I can't stop people from taking the path they want to take.

''I will help you. I don't know if we can create an era where the demon race and the human race can come together, but...''
