Don't call me evil god

Chapter 858 What is Evil
Miranda Warren was stunned.

When Evelyn spoke, the companions around her had already been pulled to the next transit point by the [Summoning Ceremony].

Only the ritual token in her hand remained quiet.

Miranda frowned slightly and looked at Evelyn with a little caution:
"what's up?"

After knowing the other party's devil identity, Miranda has always been wary of Evelyn and has never been willing to trust Evelyn completely as she trusts Gail and others.

As we all know, demons are very good at deceiving mortals with "true lies".

Raphi Gunasius is a typical example.

He thinks highly of himself and never bothers to use cheap lies to deceive others.

Raphael can make sure that every word he says is true, but different angles of understanding or different situations will cause these truths to become misleading false information, and then make the mortals fall into his carefully prepared trap and pay the price of their souls for it.

In the eyes of the devil, using language skills to play with people's hearts is much more interesting than simply lying to deceive people.

As for Evelyn.

Although she has always been quite sincere to the believers of Nowen, she is even willing to ask for the protection of God as a devil.

But why the other party did this remains an unsolved mystery.

She obviously had her own plans and calculations, but she never said them out loud.

Evelin covered her lips and chuckled.

Her makeup today is quite "devilish".

Thick smoky makeup, purple-black eyeshadow, dark black cherry lip gloss, and exaggerated eyeliner and eyebrow drawing.

She dyed her long wavy hair into burgundy, and showed off her beautiful figure in this cold winter.

In short, he doesn't look like a good person at first glance!

Not even the most wanton whore would dress like this.

"Miss Warren."

Evelyn raised the short-handled staff in her right hand and swung it slightly.

A pale blue light flashed by.

Miranda began to hear a faint rustling sound in her ears.

She frowned slightly.

This thing was not unfamiliar to her because she had seen Gale use this magic before.

Level 2 magic [Noise Blockage].

The effect is just as its name suggests, the words spoken by the caster and the target he chooses will become a rustling noise to other people around, and only the two parties themselves can hear each other clearly.

The power of the magic is naturally not as strong as the 4th-level [Silent Field] or similar sound-related magic.

And it is not very difficult to crack. Theoretically, a Level 2 mage can use [Noise Dispersion] to crack it and make the magic ineffective.

The problem is that.

Evelyn is a straight-up devil.

So it's pretty weird that she can use magic!

It feels like a magic goddess being forced into submission.

Evelin walked slowly to Miranda's side, almost sticking to her, leaning close to her ear, and whispered:

"I just want you to think about this question carefully."

"What is evil in your opinion?"

Miranda frowned: "Of course it's those distorted things from the void!" "Evil gods, monsters, and the cult lunatics who are willing to serve them, they are the greatest evil in the world!"

Evelyn didn't seem surprised by this answer, and asked, "According to your standards, Bishop Sket of Green Harbor, the leader of the Bloodfang Gang, Dursley, Bishop Henry Trang of Ceylon, and Rune Monger, the former richest man in the kingdom, are these people... evil?"

Miranda: “Forget it!”

"Merits and demerits cannot be offset. No matter what they have done, when they choose to go along with evil, they are stained with the indelible stigma of evil!"

Evelyn blinked.

"Most of what Bishop Skate of Green Harbor did was instigated by others, because he had a handle in the hands of the person behind the scenes."

"Refusing the other party's request means ruining one's reputation and leading to imprisonment and exile."

"If Dursley of the Bloodfang Gang gave up accepting the 'gift' from the evil god, he would probably always be the gang boss's henchman. Maybe one day he would die in a street fight for territory in the lower city, and then be sent to the crematorium in the lower city without even a tombstone left."

"Bishop Henry Trang of Ceylon, his every move is monitored by someone behind the scenes. No matter who it is, as long as he sits in this position, he has no choice."

"Whether he resists or exposes himself, he will only face a large amount of frame-up and entrapment, because he cannot even determine the true identity of the person behind the scenes."

"As for Rune Monger, after acquiring countless wealth, he sought to pursue a longer life so that he could enjoy more of what he had."

“After spending more than ten years, he realized that praying to the gods was useless. His birth determined that he would never become a transcendent. His life span was almost up and he could die at any time. Only then did he choose to place his hope on another force, the evil god from the void.”

"It stands to reason that they are evil, too."

"Because they actually have the opportunity to say no to so-called 'evil', even if it means destroying everything they own."

Miranda hesitated.

If it were her old self, Miranda at that time had just left the Church of the God of Light not long ago, and her understanding of the world was simple and naive.

"Resisting evil gods, fighting heretics, and destroying monsters is justice, and it is the sacred white that symbolizes glory;"

"Those who help evil gods, support cultists, and summon monsters are evil. They are the black that symbolizes emptiness and chaos."

Simple criteria for judgment.

At that time, her mind was full of thoughts like "dedication, justice, and mercy". If Miranda had to sacrifice herself to save others, she would never hesitate.

She is willing to sacrifice her life at any cost to uphold the "justice" she upholds.

But after experiencing one adventure after another, Miranda gradually came to understand more:

The world is neither white nor black.

A delicate grey.

Some of the so-called "evil people" are not cultists, and they are fully aware of what they are doing.

They knew they were doing something dangerous.

They know that their actions could have serious consequences.

But - this is the choice they made after weighing the pros and cons.

Compared to the other option, this option is the best they can find.

"If, I mean if."

The devil Evelyn pointedly said:

"There is a way that requires sacrificing countless mortals and severely damaging the entire civilization, completely changing the pattern of hundreds of years of difficult confrontation with evil."

“People who choose to do this, are they considered evil?”
