The Devil and Me

After listening to the system message, Asher paused for a moment and then made up his mind.

"System, I choose points conversion."

Unlike the previous space power, the effect of ''Dark Power'' is only applicable to Pokémon with a Dark attribute, considering that none of your current Pokémon have a Dark attribute and that the chance of drawing a Pokémon with a specific attribute is very high. rare, it was better to choose the system points in Asher's view.

After confirming his choice, Asher's hand reached out slightly towards the Ghost Rider, and then the insatiable hellfire covering the skeleton instantly began to subside!

Just a few moments later, the hellfire dissipated, and Ghost Rider's body gradually transformed from the terrifying skeletal form to human form.

"Who is he?"

Peggy, seeing that the battle seemed to be over, approached Asher's side, and was able to witness the bizarre transformation, becoming confused by the unknown that took the skeleton monster's place.

"Who knows, someone who signed a contract with the devil will always have a bad end."

Asher, on the other hand, just shrugged his shoulders - the only Ghost Rider he knew was Johnny Blaze, but he had no way of telling whether it was actually Blaze or some other poor tormented soul.

"What's next for him? Is he still going to keep turning into that thing?"

Peggy was more worried about whether this unknown person would cause more harm in the future - as the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., who monitors all kinds of supernatural occurrences, after seeing Ghost Rider, she certainly wouldn't let the other party move freely in the world.

"Hey, young lady – Have some respect for my poor employee."

"It is one of my proudest works."

It was at this time that the stranger who was still on the ground let out a strange laugh, stood up and began to speak, exhaling sulfur breath.

Asher noticed that the other party's eyes had no pupils, just the whites of their eyes.

"Well, isn't it a Great Demon, Mephisto?"

The evil aura that was almost overflowing from the other party's body made Asher recognize Mephisto the moment his eyes met.

"Oh, it seems like Yao told you."

Mephisto's smile became more and more distorted, "But it's not surprising - your ability is very special, you can also completely eliminate my power, which is really... Intriguing!"

The moment his words finished, a strange black light flashed in the former Ghost Rider's blank pupils!

"Buzz!"

The black light instantly flew towards Asher, with a gesture of his hand Asher created a psionic shield, managing to block the attack with some difficulty.

"Is it really necessary for a Hell Lord to use such low means?"

Asher looked calmly at Mephisto.

"In the eyes of humans, am I not the embodiment of cunning and malice?"

Mephisto raised his hands and smiled, as if the fact that he had just launched a suppressed attack was nothing, continuing to speak calmly, "I have a deal that might interest you - I heard you have some very powerful beasts, Maybe you can summon them to show me, and I can give you a generous reward, how about that?"

"That depends on your skills."

Asher responded coldly, releasing a psionic wave with all his strength towards Mephisto!

"That's a shame..."

After being affected by Asher's attack, Mephisto continued to smile as if a summer breeze was blowing: "It seems that Your Excellency doesn't receive me very well, in that case... Anyway, it was very interesting to meet you, I'll say goodbye first."

"By the way, remember, both of you, if you want to make a deal with me in the future, call my name at a crossroads at midnight - as long as it's not my vacation day, I'll be happy to make a deal with one of you."

After making some propaganda, Mephisto let out a laugh that sent shivers down the spine.

And the next moment, when the laughter stopped abruptly.

The possessed body fell like a puppet whose strings had been cut, withered instantly, becoming withered like a mummy - a manifestation of the poor man's life force without being sucked away by the Demon.

"...Is he gone?"

Witnessing this frightening scene, Peggy couldn't help but frown.

"I think so."

Asher looked at the abandoned body, which had lost everything, and nodded slightly.

"...He's crazy, right?"

Thinking about Mephisto's words, which had no logic at all, Peggy couldn't help but say.

"Demons are in themselves personifications of negative feelings, insanity and malice, they are countless beings who enjoy the suffering of everything and everyone around them, Mephisto in particular is of expert level in this sense, like a true Lord Demon."

Asher said calmly, but inside he obviouslyit wasn't as calm as it looked from the outside.

Because much less Peggy, even he who had a lot of privileged information, could not discover Mephisto's purposes, and truth be told, Mephisto was powerful on a completely different level, and even so what was really scary, was not his immense power, but yes your machinations.

Just look at the situation now, he possessed the former Ghost Rider's body at the moment the power sustaining the Spirit of Vengeance was eliminated, then carried out a sneak attack on Asher, offered a deal, and then left inexplicably.

From beginning to end, it was as if he really just came to say hello, as if to say - ''Hey man, my name is Mephisto, if you need a little help give me a call."

By this completely illogical way of acting, Asher actually held some fear in his heart - compared to the powerful but reckless enemies, this kind of enemy that besides being powerful has high intelligence, is actually frightening.

"That guy's body isn't going to get up and attack again, is it?"

After making sure that Mephisto had indeed left, Peggy looked at the body on the floor with some concern.

"We're not in a zombie crisis Peggy, at least not yet..."

Asher said denying the possibility - "But in order to avoid any unforeseen circumstances, I suggest you send someone to collect the body and burn it - don't take it for research, the devil's power is not something to be trifled with."

"Yes, you can leave it to me."

Peggy nodded, and then a wry smile appeared on her face: "I started thinking that S.H.I.E.L.D. needs to create a special mythology research team."

First Asgard and the Nordic Gods, and then she saw the devil from the Bible with her own eyes, which made Peggy Carter, the newly appointed director of S.H.I.E.L.D, really want to give the position back to Nick Fury, she was really too old for those things. thing, even if her body was no longer that of a lady in her 90s.

Especially after Asher looked at her with a stoic face and said, ''I think so,'' something told Peggy that there was a nice can of worms hidden that she might end up opening soon.

After Ghost Rider's attack, she didn't have time to enjoy the ride in her favorite car - as she had to call Coulson to come and collect the body, while she and Asher took Coulson's car and quickly returned to the rebuilt headquarters.

"The two Asgardian princes are inside."

When Peggy took Asher to the living room door, he was ready for the situation in which Thor, would hit him directly with a hammer blow, stupidly roared, ''thief return what belongs to Asgard'.

''If these two dare to do so, I will tie them upside down and negotiate directly with Odin's old man!''

While absurd and very violent thoughts pass through his mind, Asher pushed open the living room door, boldly entering the place!
