Chapter 170: Demon Of Machinery

Plot devices, im sure you heard a few of them, and one of the things commonly used is the ex machina. A plot device like Deus will aid the characters in easily solving such an arduous problem. In a convenient way possible Aka lazy writing. Or Diablos that only empower and strengthen the problem at hand. Whether you’re the main character, the antagonist or a mere side character. These plot devices are sure to help you in your time of need or flip you off like a middle finger

[System: You’ve discovered one of the sacred treasures hidden from the depths of the trials. And can only be obtained by entering the most brutal and life-threatening areas of the trials. You’ve found Diablos ex machina - A golem that’s created by an unknown deity from the past. It was said to have gained the power of darkness and the only players it chooses must require to have Demonic/Evil/Chaotic traits]

"Are you freaking kidding me right now!!! It’s Diablo’s ex-machina, I can’t believe that I lived to see one of the sacred treasures. As much as I’m honored to see this piece of art that I’ve written all about, it’s sad that I’ll have to destroy it. I can’t leave it be, the anomaly-infested monsters were eyeing up on this baby. It must have been their goal, if so then I’ll have to destroy it even though it pains me so much," He quickly changes his mood and charges up his mana, and focused it before he could release it on his target

It was a sacred treasure, so it would have been durable enough to survive with just a simple swing in its body. So he waited and concentrated on applying his mana and chi to his weapon which displayed a harmonic bond. However, the slumbering weapon has to awaken after it felt the power lingering in his body

[A faint flow of demonic energy has been detected. The player is seen as a viable host. Attitude is neutral which has no such preferred side of good and evil. The player’s total kill count has reached a number where an individual is thirsty for blood. All requirements have been met, commencing the registration process in 3, 2, 1]

"Hold up, I didn’t sign up for anything," He was too confused about the outcome when he momentarily lost his focus. And heard the voice that came from the golem itself, he tried to parry it in any way possible to deny its registration. However, he notices that it was a lost cause when his right eye was scanned and detected as a demonic property

[System: Congratulations you’re now the proud owner of [Diablos] the prized treasure of the 2nd trial, that’s a part of the ex machina series. We wish you the best of luck in keeping the treasure, do note that the sacred treasure is in your possession. There’s not a single way to disown this treasure until your soul has left the world of trials. Meaning it will only be applied to another individual once you’ve died]

"Curses!!! What the hell man I thought it wasn’t going to be detected if my eye is blocked by my eye patch. If this keeps going I might as well end up being the final boss and the main character will come and kill me. I can see it very clearly, even if I close my eyes,"

[Status: Your party has encountered the final boss? That goes by the name Christoper Morris

[Attack] <-- [Reason] [Item] [Flee]

Outcome: You’ve chosen to attack, due to a stroke of luck your first blow has a 100% crit chance. 75% damage increase, holy damage, and 50% additional damage, the attack was too powerful the final boss died]

"I’m just exaggerating, there isn’t that much of a problem as the owner of Diablos, and it wouldn’t lead to any kind of route. Since that would’ve been too broken at this point of my story, the only thing that matters is that I can’t get caught being the owner. If anyone finds out they’ll pretty much kill me just so they can obtain this magnificent treasure. For now, let’s try to greet each other," Without any other possible way to react he did what anyone else would have done

He activated the golem and automatically sucks him off his mana at the required amount for it to function. Awakening its function and ego that remained dormant within the machine. Until it was awakened by the newly registered individual that seeks its necessity. After its revival, a very long time had passed, and the golem quickly went to kneel in the presence of its current owner

"Greetings from a thousand years or more, for I have finally awakened after my decease owner has perished in this world. I am called Diablos a golem that’s a byproduct of Deus the opposite of the ever-good-natured golem. I am the embodiment of destruction and the counterpart of Deus the machine of convenience. I only bring destruction and even greater trouble to any place I deem to go, please to make your acquaintance,"

Once it finally woke from its slumber, its image changed to that of a small boy that was about his current size. Which mimicked his current image as its chosen form to take as a means of suiting the taste of its new owner. At first, glance he may look innocent and a good-natured little boy, but it’s only a facade to hide his true nature. Which was destructive, and sadistic, if you look any deeper into his mind, you’ll know the true reason behind his name

"Tell me this I’ve heard that you’re supposed to be mischievous and overall had an irritating attitude. Sharp tongue and a whole lot of issues that correlate with your true image. Then how come you act so nice and gentle, even going so far as to kneel?" After he was finished with his investigation, he continued to walk away. After he awakened the show that followed him on his journey to the room above and beyond

"That’s pretty easy to answer your questions, I’m a machine that is designed to be a helping hand to my chosen master. A part of my duty is to be your trustworthy companion that will aid you to make the right decisions about your life. On the contrary, even though I’m programmed to like you, even with my despicable nature. I can see your manner and ways of speech so similar to my own, which isn’t something that I see in a person very often," Their journey wasn’t that boring as they soon encounter another horde of enemies that came in their way

"Fret not, for I will vanquish your foes, I can already detect your surge of mana with our contract. However, I wish to display it to my master, my power is something that im most proud of. If you allow me to do so im sure that I would meet your expectations?" He gave Diablos his permission to act as he pleases and in return. He saw a sinister smile that appeared on the face of his golem

Even though he was small and rather frail-looking compared to the huge machinery he encountered. He didn’t move a single bit from his position whilst his opponent move forward with their attacks. Sending their projectiles, weaponry of all sorts that are attached to their bodies. All of it was negated by a swing of his hand that opened up a shield created by the mana that dwells in his core

[System: The golem has deployed one of its many weapons within its arsenal [Energy blade] has been chosen. Using the mana within its core the golem can call forth a blade of concentrated energy. That forms a sharp and piercing blade in its palms]

"You call those things a weapon!!? How long have I slumbered, to think about the creation of machinery would drop so much? It’s such an offensive display to call all these defects a weapon of mass destruction!!!" It was faint but Moriss felt the power behind that blade that he willingly displays. It’s the body that was built for the reason to cause mass destruction in the area it was sent. An ego that has the potential to match the power and experience of a real person in combat. Finally, the thirst for death and destruction upon everything that he was ordered tk destroy

He showed no signs of hesitations, a face that enjoys destruction, and a laugh that displays his joy. After he massacred a ton of weaklings that couldn’t even go, toe to toe with his weakened state. He didn’t even break a sweat nor gave his enemies the chance to land a single hit on his body. With every step, he took and every swing he made, he destroyed them with ease

’He truly is a demon that dwells inside of a machine, I guess I can work with this,’

While he was celebrating his success in subduing the anomaly, deep within the trials a figure was cursing him. Screaming his name and addressing him as a mere ant that trampled with his plans

"To think that you would have the nerve to test my wrath!!! Truth seeker... Not only did you take what I rightfully found, you have the nerve to take it as your possession. Mark my words, I’ll kill you when I restore my power if you’re not too careful I might as well end your life...! When I found a chance I’ll make sure to pay you tenfolds of what I suffered from this humiliating defeat,"
