Chapter 82: Who is that man? (1/2)

A city of diamonds, gold, and everything that glitters. I blink my eyes several times. I am hypnotized by the view. I would have never expected something like this. The domain of Greed is a flourishing city.

I wonder if I am in the wrong place. Is this really hell?

”Wow!” fascinated, I sigh. I walk on a red carpet beneath me. Pillars of gold with large colorful stones are situated on both sides. At the end of the red carpet, I can see an enormous palace. This palace is also made of gold. Someone has an obsession with gold.

”Greed.” Min Ho looks around dimly. ”It's all about what we are greedy about. Money. Power. Attention or Precious objects. Everything is in the city. However, those who are charmed by these things can never be satisfied. The domain of Greed feeds on their greed and keep them here forever.”

”I get it,” I assure him. ”I won't fall for this. Besides, I have never been greedy for money. I am only greedy for one thing in life. That's-”

”Your precious husband.” Min Ho rolls his eyes at me. ”Yeah. Yeah. You are only greedy for his love. You never know though. What if a version of him is here?”

I laugh out loud. ”The lust demon tried it. There is only one Sung Jun. He is heavenly blessed. Nobody can copy him perfectly.”

Min Ho gives me a shrug. ”I wonder if someone so perfect like him really exists.”

I pinch his cheek. ”Who are you doubting? I will take you to him. You can see the perfection with your own eyes. ”

”Noona, stop. It hurts.” He cries out in pain. I now know why Sung Jun liked to pinch my cheeks.

He stops protesting abruptly. ”Noona, the demon lord is here.”

”Welcome, Lady Jahr'golen.” His voice is sickeningly sweet. I turn to Lord Greed. He is a big man with red hair. He is around seven feet tall with a huge belly. He is wearing a shimmering red cloak. From the head to the toe, he is strapped with shiny pieces of jewelry. He is even wearing earrings and a nose ring. Behind him, there are twin queues of bowing men in a similar fashion style.

You are not overdoing it, Man. You are not overdoing it at all.

”I have been waiting for you.” When he walks, I see his flesh jiggle up and down. He adds, ”Lady Jahr'golen.”

Lady is okay, but who he is calling Jar?

”Are you mistaken?” I direct the dark energy. I realize that the dark energy is denser and purer here. I start absorbing it while I speak to him. I need my demon side to become a mid-tier demon. There is no harm in becoming stronger. ”I am not Jar Golem.”

”You are.” He laughs loudly. ”Your mother is the only daughter of Jar'golen's only living daughter. You are her only living daughter. You are the only living granddaughter of Jar'Golen. You are the great-granddaughter of Lord Wrath.”

Ah! So, my maternal grandfather's name is demon Jar'Golen. I like how he is emphasizing 'Living'. I don't think that I want to know what happened to the other children and grandchildren of my grandfather.
