He was the perfect example of a great hero, and the foolish girl would fall for him for sure!

She did, hard.

She looked at the mortal lovingly.

For a second, the devil felt shocked as it saw her golden demonic eyes but then disregarded that detail. It really didn't matter. As long as she was spellbound, everything would be fine!

It let them play around for a bit— not that much happened. The foolish girl was shy and pure, even when the mortal was very forward.

Poor girl! While she fell in love with this illusion, her beloved was screwing plenty of fake concubines of various races in his own "nightmare".

But the devil couldn't wait. It had to bring things to an end.

It couldn't tolerate waiting anymore for its revenge.

It mercilessly subjected the copy to unimaginable torture. Everything it had tried on the real one it did to this one. The copy at least wouldn't laugh in its face!

It forced her to watch it all with incredible joy!

The devil found pleasure in the torment and even more delight at seeing the foolish girl's suffering expression.

It was so damn happy that it would have been smiling if it had a face.

She cried, begged, and despaired, but it never stopped no matter what she did.

That's when the devil showed up. It took the appearance of a friend of her lover. He was on the article of death.

He had barely managed to steal an incredible profound technique from a powerful sect but had paid the ultimate price: his lifespan.

He now wanted to give it to her to rescue his friend and her beloved.

It was the perfect plan!

That's when the foolish girl looked at him with resolve.

"No thanks! I'm not that bored."

…?!?

Suddenly the devil had a bad feeling. He reminded her that her beloved would die if they didn't save him!

"You can slice him, cook him or boil him for all I care. He's just a fake anyway." She shrugged.

What?!!! No, Noooo!!! How was this possible?! There was no hesitation at all in her voice. She was even smiling.

She knew, she freaking knew! How the fuck?! What the actual fuck was up with mortals nowadays?!

The devil reviewed all it had done, but it really couldn't notice any mistake.

The copy's expression had been perfect, so had the dialogue been, the gestures, every-fucking-thing! The more it thought about it, the more confused it got!

It was going insane! What was up with her?!

It would have to try again….

━━━━━━ POV ━━━━━━━

On the side, Bubblegum was chuckling. After a while here, she had understood the nature of this realm. Even if she spent a lot of time here, barely a few seconds would have elapsed outside.

Also, it seemed like this devil was very on edge.

Jack had never needed help, and it seemed that she had done something unnecessary.

She had come in with the resolve to face anything and had been highly wary. But, the actual illusion had been way too easy to see through.

Jack appearing and saving her from a monster? Please! Each time she was with him, she was freaking getting eaten!— in more ways than one.

The whole white knight routine had been so damn suspicious! She wasn't some naive little girl!

Plus, the copy had been professing its love for her so many damn times! The real Jack had been very clear that he wasn't looking for a relationship.

Heck, she could understand, for he was almost always gaming! As soon as they went their separate ways in Infinite, he wouldn't have time for her anymore.

She had once been a pro-gamer and recognized the flame in his eyes. There was only reaching greater heights on his mind and it was fine.

Point is, the copy had been far too perfect! It sounded like Jack, looked like Jack, and felt like Jack…but seen through rose-colored glasses, ones that were thick AF!

At that point, she was still playing dumb. She didn't want to be too obvious.

What if the devil realized that she knew it was an illusion? What if it created another one that was harder to see through?

But just as she had been wondering, she had received a surprise. As if a gift from heaven, a system message had appeared for her.

With it, she had been able to relax.

What had been a relatively easy illusion to see through had turned into a complete joke.

[Congratulation! Hidden Bloodline Quest Completed! ]

[Managed To See Through The Devil's Illusion!]

[Detected Rare Fox Bloodline!]

[Activation Conditions Met!]

[Unlocking New Ability!]

[Fox Demonic Eyes!]

[Have Fun ^_^v !]

Her first reaction was: "What the Hell?!"

She had almost given away that she had seen through the mirage at that moment. The shock had been way too huge!

After all, she had suddenly unlocked the ability to see what had previously been invisible.

With this new ability, she could detect the devil silently cackling nearby. It didn't have a set physical shape and instead looked like a floating mass of demonic energy.

She had begun her plan to make it waste as much time and energy as possible from that point onward.

She had no reason to fear. It was pretty hard to forget that this was an illusion as she saw the creature create it all in front of her. (While cackling)

Thus, she patiently waited as the devil got ready for round two.

She could hear it grumble that it would definitely break her.

Her days were numbered!— or so it said.

Whatever….

━━━━━━ POV ━━━━━━━

The devil swore that it would break the foolish girl.

So what if she had seen through the previous illusion? There was probably a detail it had missed, one that only she and the mortal knew.

It would get creative! This was no problem at all. It would simply reuse all the things that hadn't worked against the bastard!

Thus it got to work.

First, it tempted her with incredible power! It gave her all the authority that she could desire!

That didn't work one bit. No matter the scenario it threw at her, she would never forget that she was retired and snap out of it.

The devil couldn't understand how such a young woman could be retired already, but whatever. It tried something else.

It tried to lure her in with fame. Once more, she surprised him.

The devil offered her all the fame she could want, only for her to sneer and utter: "What is wrong with these guys? Don't they know who I am?!"

What?! It had people literally crawling at her feet trying to kiss her ass! They were swearing to dedicate their lives for a single smile from her and it wasn't enough?!

She even said something about having more dedicated simps. The devil didn't understand what the fuck that was about, but it knew better than to keep trying.

It tried to offer her wealth, but she looked down on everything it proposed.

No amount of gold would ever satisfy her! She always wanted something called credits. The problem was that the devil didn't know what that was!

The devil tried a few other things but failed every freaking time.

In the end, it couldn't take it anymore.

It just looked at her in its silent and invisible form. Then it screamed at her even if it knew she couldn't hear it.

"Tell me, woman! What the fuck do you want?!"

It repeated this a few times, and it helped a lot— or it should have.

That's when she looked straight at it with her golden demonic eyes, giving a sadistic smile.

"I want to see you squirm."

She could see it?!

SHE COULD SEE IT!!!!!

She could freaking see it…this explained a lot.

All this time, she had been toying with it. Fucking hell! The foolish girl was neither foolish nor a girl!

She was a scheming and incredibly vile demonic creature, one that could see through all illusions!

At this moment, the devil started crying once more.

( ╥﹏╥ )

"Now, now. You're no fun if you just keep crying, mister devil." She said with a soothing and gentle voice that reminded one of an angel.

But this sweet melody completely terrified the devil. Those two humans really were a good match…

Goodbye, world! Let this poor devil return to nothingness. What is the point of an existence laden with nothing but suffering?

The devil sighed as it got ready to detonate its essence and end it all.

But just as it was about to do it, it suddenly heard a commotion coming from the outside world.

"This Village Chief is back! Let me see you try and stop me this time!"

What now….
