[Shepherd: "Given the scene I'm live-streaming now, it's normal for you to misunderstand."]
[Hell's Fubuki: "So what exactly happened? Did these people… do something bad?"]
At first glance, the people being burned by karmic fire were all well-dressed and glamorous.
Combining Fubuki's understanding of some wealthy people, she roughly guessed some things.
[Shepherd: "Smart, as expected of you."]
[Hell's Fubuki: "This kind of thing just needs a little guessing, right? So what exactly happened to make you so angry?"]
[Shepherd: "Not exactly angry, just clearing out some pests."]
[Shepherd: "Do you think they look like humans?"].
[Du Dao: "This… should be human, right?" "153"]
[I Don't Want to Eat Monsters: "They look like tall people, but now that Mr. Rosen says that, I'm not so sure."]
[Magic Old Man: "You've tortured them to this state, so they don't look much like humans anymore."]
Gabriel dared not speak.
She had already confirmed Rosen's identity at this point.
She couldn't deceive herself anymore.
[Bad Woman: "Mr. Rosen means, is there something inside these people's bodies?"]
If that were the case, it could be explained.
Possession by demons was common in her world.
Some demons could even become exactly like humans.
For example, she herself was the embodiment of the Control Devil.
It was just that few people knew.
[Shepherd: "I won't keep you in suspense. These people belong to an organization I investigated called the Soul-Snatchers. Their true forms are malevolent spirits, and they can use their abilities to invade human bodies, taking over their identities and living their lives. I set a trap and gathered them all together, then burned them all with one fire."]
[Magic Old Man: "Soul-snatching? Sounds a bit troublesome. But you managed to catch this entire group of malevolent spirits by yourself? Curious.jpg."]
[I Don't Want to Eat Monsters: "There's actually something so terrifying?!!!"]
[Ice Witch: "Oh? Taking over other people's bodies to survive, these creatures are quite interesting."]
[Du Dao: "It's not interesting, it's terrifying… Before the virus outbreak, I watched some similar movies. The existence of these malevolent spirits directly ruined the order of the entire world. If we're talking about threats, I think they're even more terrifying than biochemical viruses."]
[Hell's Fubuki: "If what you say is true, the threat of this Soul-Snatchers organization can already rival a God-level disaster. Although their destructive power isn't strong, they can subtly change everyone."]
Just imagine.
Your wife or husband, or even your own child, who sleeps in the same bed as you every day, is suddenly replaced by a malevolent spirit the next day.
He continues to pretend to be the original person and lives with you, but in reality, your beloved family member has been completely erased. Just thinking about it makes one feel like collapsing.
[Bad Woman: "I've encountered these things before, but the demons I encountered couldn't casually invade ordinary people's bodies like this, and even if they completed the invasion, demons found it difficult to replicate ordinary human behavior and were easily discovered."]
[Shepherd: "Hmm, these Soul-Snatchers can determine whether someone is alive or dead by their external aura, but in other aspects, they are the same as normal people."]
[Shepherd: "So before I found them, some Soul-Snatchers had already reached positions where they could influence politics."]
[Magic Old Man: "I'm very curious how you found them."]
[Shepherd: "A little trick. I captured one of the Soul-Snatchers, made him submit to me, and then used something the Soul-Snatchers couldn't refuse to attract them here."]
The soul of a god.
The Soul-Snatchers, who wanted to cultivate an evil god, simply couldn't refuse.
[Shepherd: "They quickly took the bait, and then it's like this now."]
Rosen stopped speaking.
Those still burning bodies were the best proof.
However, they did not die, but were absorbed into Rosen's divine kingdom as members of his myriad army.
And at this moment.
A notification sound suddenly came from the chat group.
[Group Message: Welcome "Spirit of Time" to the chat group, come out quickly and say hello to everyone~~~]
[Group Message: Welcome "Red-haired Demon Princess" to the chat group, come out quickly and say hello to everyone~~~]
Because the Sinful Fire was still ongoing, Rosen's thoughts were instead focused on the chat group 0....
When the new member entry message appeared, he noticed their presence.
"These two nicknames are a bit familiar."
The fate of the Soul-Snatchers was already sealed, so Rosen had leisure to think about other things.
Combining his original memories.
The identities of these two new members were obvious.
"Spirit of Time" might be Tokisaki Kurumi, the Spirit of Time from the world of "Date A Live."
As for the "Red-haired Demon Princess," she is naturally even more obvious; she is Rias Gremory, the heroine from the DXD world, the younger sister of Lucifer, the Demon King of the Underworld, and also the successor head of the Gremory family, a true second-generation player.
And speaking of these two anime series, they can be said to have set off a craze back then.
Especially Tokisaki Kurumi, who, despite not being the main heroine, gained the highest popularity among more than a dozen Spirits due to her distinct personality.
After all, who doesn't like a beautiful girl with high offense and low defense?
However, the two girls who had just joined the group were completely bewildered by the current situation.
"What's going on? Didn't I already refuse?"
Tengu City.
A girl with astonishing beauty couldn't help but murmur to herself.
Before this strange notification arrived, she had just finished teaching a lesson to a few delinquents who dared to tease her.
The voice that suddenly popped into Tokisaki Kurumi's mind made her initially think it was a pursuit from DEM Company, but after a careful investigation, she found that there was no suspicious presence around.
To be safe, Tokisaki Kurumi even intentionally changed her location.
But no matter what, the voice in her mind and the light screen in front of her still remained.
And because of her special identity and the goal she had to achieve, Tokisaki Kurumi ultimately chose "No," but the moment she clicked, the light screen in front of her displayed the chat panel.
The result left Tokisaki Kurumi confused.
If choosing either option leads to only one outcome, then why give her a choice at all?
