Chapter 1396: Chapter 460: Something Is Odd About This Pride

"Ah!"

After a dramatic cry, the blonde Succubus named Moma fell down in the backyard, leaving only the Demon Bat and the dancing Tentacle Monster standing among the wreckage.

Sin, oh sin!

Looking at the scattered remnants of the fallen, Wayne raised his hand to form a cross on his chest, feeling that the Demon Bat seemed a bit drained, he replenished it with some foam.

The Demon Bat was back on its feet!

Demon Bat: Don’t blame little bat for everything, look for the reasons in yourself, please.

The Avatar had no rights and spoke softly, Wayne reprimanded its excuses and pondered the dull monotony of life in Paradise Lost, deciding to visit Lust in a few days to finalize the deal.

It can’t be too fast; whoever rushes at the negotiating table falls at a disadvantage, nor too slow; he’s impersonating Pride, not really Pride, delay could lead to unexpected changes.

Three days, no, five days or a week seems just right.

Thinking of having to be rooted amongst Succubi for five days, Wayne sighed; given a choice, he’d rather face these Devils head-on.

Unlike now, where he sometimes stands at the back, sometimes below, his position wavering, appearing quite unprincipled.

Just as he was sighing, two figures crossed through the green corridor, Wayne turned to look, the red dress was Lust, the man in the black suit...

Somewhat resembled Austin, looking superficially good but inherently bad.

Wayne scrutinized the man, who had a creepy smile and a penetrating gaze, considering that this is Paradise Lost, Hell + Abyss’s top red-light district, he couldn’t be too restrictive with orientations, instinctively taking a step back.

Thanks for the invitation.

This path is blocked, goodbye.

Lust’s eyes were burning with invasive desire, written all over his face, Wayne became more certain.

Even if the man isn’t gay, the upcoming multi-battle silver party would have him team up with the man, jointly confronting Lust leading a group of Succubi.

Oh my, this is too classy.

Wayne refused such gatherings, he’s a man of principles, his righteous three views only lead him to criticize and distance himself, no matter what, he won’t stoop to depravity.

He advised Lust not to overdo it; solo fighting Succubi is his limit.

"You seem to be thinking some very disrespectful thoughts!"

Like Felster in the Mortal World, Pride was very dismissive of Wayne, displeased: "Let me introduce myself, the head of the Seven Deadly Sins, Lord Pride, Wayne, we meet again."

Bang!!

Thunder roared in Wayne’s ears, he hasn’t acquired a domain yet, without authority, he can’t stand against the Seven Demon Kings, let alone challenging the head of the Seven Demon Lords, Pride.

He escaped envy last time, but the same trick won’t work to escape Pride’s clutches.

What’s going on, Enguima went out for a stroll, brought back Jealousy and Soskuna, unmasked his disguise on the spot, Lust went unnoticed for a round, directly bringing Pride back, since coming to Hell, luck has never been on his side.

Running is not an option; with Pride + Lust, even an Archangel won’t be able to flee from the Abyss’s Paradise Lost.

Wayne took a deep breath, attempting a rescue: "Oh, it’s Lord Pride, my name is Demon Bat, not Wayne, you got the wrong person."

"No mistake, other than a drop of your blood, everything else belongs to my Demon Bat, I know exactly who you are, the moment the Demon Bat descended into Hell, it was me who threw him here." Pride squinted with a smile.

It’s over!

"What are all the words for, let me spar a round with him first!"

The Lord of Lust couldn’t bear it any longer, eyes blazing with jealousy, he untied the golden hair bun, stepped towards Wayne, wearing red evening gown, shoulder straps slipped to the arms.

The rest requires Wayne’s assistance.

Wayne took two more steps back, what do you mean, is this how you Succubi fight?

"Lust, bear with it, if he runs, you’ll never have him." Pride coldly snorted, a waste is a waste, driven by personal desires, unable to achieve greatness.

"This is my territory, he can’t escape!" Lust said coldly.

"No, if he can enter Hell, he can leave Hell, you don’t believe me, you can try."

Pride’s voice grew icy, then looked at Wayne, his tone softened: "Don’t worry, I come to find you without malice. I heard from Lust that you’ve set sights on Gluttony and Wrath’s territory, wanting to take down one, and replace to become one of the Seven Deadly Sins?"

"I’ve never said that!"

Wayne shook his head repeatedly, Demon Bat babbled nonsense, what’s that got to do with Wayne, look for Demon Bat...

Don’t bother, Demon Bat is still a child, speaks freely, let’s drop it.

"No matter if you said it or not, I want you to become one of the Seven Deadly Sins!"

"..."

Wayne thought it over, didn’t understand, a string of question marks floated across his forehead.

Isn’t Pride supposed to be Hell’s ringleader, what’s the benefit of selling out his minions to an Exorcist?

Also, Pride seems to be convinced he can run if he wants, how did this misunderstanding arise?

The minds of top-level Devils are so hard to fathom!

Scene change.

At the conference table in the Demon King’s Hall.

Wayne settled into Demon Bat, Lust sat on top of him, leaning over the table, golden hair scattered, reverted to Succubus form.

Opposite, Pride held a glass of red wine, revealing a smile only he understood.

The style was terrible, without upper society and Hell, it couldn’t be played out.

Question marks over Wayne’s forehead continued without stopping, adopting a "we’re already here" principle, he raised his hand to grip two handles, let Demon Bat take on Lust, striving to turn it into a limp shrimp, so flipping the table later would be lighter.

For a full half hour, Pride remained silent, until Demon Bat floored Lust in the first round, he glanced at the golden-haired head on the table, parted his lips, and silently mouthed something to Wayne.
