I knew your skill from defeating the Dark Sage, but you're really ridiculously strong."
Demon lord Shizuka crosses her arms like she's astounded.
The hills that are probably of F cups are getting emphasized, but it doesn't seem like she's trying to tempt me.
Together with her, I advance through the corridor heading to the underground tomb.
Countless torture devices were put in a hall along the way.
"Fuhahaha, masked man! You have a bad luck coming to the room of this Bazef-sama! I'll show you the thing called true pain--"
I neutralize a suspicious looking macho who appeared between the torture devices with mind magic [Pain].
I thought he would scream, but instead he's convulsing while discharging various body fluids.
Apparently, he's not strong against pain himself.
I imprison the fainted macho to the same place as the people earlier.
Then I purge the torture devices in this room with [Disintegration].
They wouldn't be put to good use even if I left them, and I wouldn't have any use of them even if I put them in my Storage.
Demon lord Shizuka is staring in amazement at the torture devices disappearance.
While ignoring her words that are mixed with awe and shock, I go to the altar beside the pit inside the mausoleum.
"What an ominous place. I feel like I can hear the grief of those who were given unfair deaths."
An item called [Curse Pot] is left on the altar.
According to the detailed information on the AR reading, it seems to be a magic tool used to collect grudges and negative thoughts.
--KWONOURWAAAAMYUUUUYEEE.
>[Soul Hearing] Skill Acquired.
Sorry but I can't stand horror, so I don't intend to activate that skill.
"I can hear the voices of souls--"
Yet, demon lord Shizuka heard some unnecessary voices.
"It seems they want to seek revenge."
I guess that's normal for people who died unnaturally.
However, I don't intend to help them in the mass slaughter--no wait.
Perhaps I can control the apparition created from soul magic.
According to the magic books I've read, it's possible to control the ghost as long as the user has higher level and high soul magic skill level.
Then maybe I can grant them the revenge while also easing my work.
I locate the spell I need from the soul magic book.
"....■■ Create Lich Lord"
『Our master, please bestow us the opportunity for revenge.』
"No."
A Lich Lord wearing a worn-out brown robe floated up from the pit.
It raised an echoing voice that chilled me to the bone, but since I don't intend to take part in murder, I rejected it.
Defiant thought flowed from the Lich Lord, but it immediately quieted down when I denied it.
I got it easily suppressed, but it feels like a balloon that's on the verge of imploding.
"I'm only ordering you to take away the skills and levels from people who killed you guys."
『....That is amusing. Truly thrilling. Pushing people who reveled in splendor down to hell on earth. Our master truly understands what revenge means.』
I'm a bit opposed to the Lich Lord's valuation, but now it should go on neutralizing the [Light of Liberty] bunch without killing them.
