The Legends Of Creator Hero
Pandora's game II
"Who will play it."
Diablo showed a very happy smile. On the other hand, the heroes and people who were betting started to feel fear. To save a lot of people, it takes one person to play. That one person will save and become the victim who will bear the curse of the pandora box.
Seeing the faces of everyone including the other heroes darken. Rigel, whose left hand is still severely injured due to the fight against the Dragons, is hit by an amaterasu attack from Diablo.
Rigel stepped forward in front of everyone. The heroes who saw rigel stepped forward to become the players who would save everyone.
"wait Rigel! W-are you sure you'll be the one playing?! You could die if you did!"
Tirith yells. While the other heroes just stared in silence.
Rigel stopped walking.
"If it wasn't me, then who would play? Who will save you? And who will save you...!!!" Rigel yells.
"But you don't have to sacrifice yourself! Didn't you promise to take me closer to the stars?! Are you just going to break that promise?!"
"I will definitely keep that promise!"
Hearing that Tirith gasped. Rigel continued in his footsteps "I won't die just because of the curse. I will definitely save everyone!"
"Nad. You're really like a real hero when you're so weak." Diablo sneered "but I acknowledge the courage and firmness of your heart." Diablo saluted by bowing his head.
Rigel... 'Because I'm weak this is all I can do as a hero.'
If for example he dies here at least Takatsumi and the others can still come back alive. 'And also Tirith, forgive me if I can't keep my promise.'
Rigel strengthened his heart and stood face to face with Diablo.
"So, what about the game and the rules."
"That's easy. In honor of your bravery, if you can survive after taking the contents of this urn 3 times, I will let your friend go."
"Can you guarantee their safety if I calm the game down?" Rigel stared at Diablo.
Ahhh~ although she was weak but her gaze was incredible, it gave me goosebumps. Thought Diablo who saw Rigel's sharp gaze with a strange smile.
"Yaa~, I can guarantee you that. Then we make the contract now." Diablo extended his hand and appeared a magic circle in front of Rigel and Diablo.
In order to make a magic contract, they had to use a few drops of their blood for the contract to work. The contract is :
- must not attack the person at stake.
- whatever comes out of the pandora box, both players are not allowed to direct it to other players.
players are not allowed to ask for third-party help.
And just like that, a magic contract had been formed.
"Then we start the game. You can take it first. If you survive after taking it 3x then the person at stake can go home." Diablo smiled cunningly.
Rigel stared intently at the urn. While praying that the contents and curses of the urn were not too heavy. Rigel closed his eyes and inserted his injured left hand to retrieve the contents of the urn and—
What he got was not an order. Rather, a magic stone that had been given mana for quite a long time.
"this?" Rigel's confused.
"kuahaaha. Your luck seems pretty good! You get such a powerful magic stone. However, I don't understand why you didn't get hit by the curse? I have ordered many of my men to take the contents of this urn and be cursed without exception." Diablo stared hard at Rigel.
'could it?'
Diablo activated his demonic eye. He can see which stream Rigel belongs to with his devil eyes. But that was not the purpose of Diablo activating his eyes.
"well, now I understand why you didn't get the curse." Diablo was holding his head like a headache.
"you, have the divine protection that the heroes have. So, that light, that blocked the curse from this urn." Diablo laughing.
"divine light?? Divine protection?? protect me from the curse?"
"yes, however, that doesn't mean it will forever protect you. I can see it clearly, if the light slowly fades due to the curse of this urn. Looks like, the stronger the curse you received, the faster the light dissipated."
Everyone was stunned as well as exhaling a sigh of relief because Rigel was not hit by the curse and also he got a good item.
Rigel put the magic stone into his infertory.
"you have 2 more chances for the others to come home safely. Saa, let's continue the game! "
Diablo spread his arms and looked up at the sky.
Hmh! He really is a very evil demon!
