Hell Inn: Rebirth - I Became a Chef in Hell

Chapter 299 Her Rose - S01E08

To be honest, Alastor always believed that the relationship between himself and ■■■, whether in life or in hell, was "cleaner".

Although he was reluctant, he could probably still frankly admit that everything he did with ■■■ was part of the “companionship” he appreciated.

But when he discovered that ■■■ was standing even higher than he had imagined, all of that changed…

The broadcaster was reluctant to use the word "destroyed".

Yes, the broadcasting demon doesn't need someone to look down on him, but he also looks down on the weak who are his equals or those he looks down on.

What the broadcasting demon wanted was a strong person who was willing to look him in the eye—

But ironically, ■■■ is this very demon.

Yes, he had clearly experienced the relationship he wanted, but his hungry and fragile self-esteem was still restless.

It was as if he worried that he was just an ordinary person among the many mediocre people in the world, yet he regarded her as an indispensable necessity...

Alastor would not allow such a foolish and vulgar thing to happen, something that would only be detrimental to him.

Perhaps the emotions of the broadcasting demon are twisted, but among them, "hatred" must be the most prominent.

He hated that [someone] was in a high position, was strong and unreasonable, and looked down on him from above.

He hated that he had met ■■■, who knew his preferences so well and made foods that were hard to find even in hell or heaven.

He hated that ■■■ appeared in front of him to chat with him and understood the things he liked.

He hated that ■■■ had become the shadow that he, with no ties to him, could always think of.

...He hated that a demon had become unlike himself.

For a lone wolf who cares about someone, it can be fatal.

Alastor built his own fortress with a smile and a radio-like tone; the attacks and flattery of other demons could never truly touch his heart.

But ■■■ can cause him to experience intense emotional fluctuations—whether it be a sense of satisfaction or resentment.

If his concern for ■■■ is discovered by other competitors, they can use this relationship to threaten or ridicule him... This is the true "hell" that Alastor's core cannot tolerate.

Alastor hates ■■■.

But this hatred paled in comparison to his need for her and the pleasure he found in being with her.

In exile, Alastor did consider simply killing ■■■ to eliminate the threat forever, but as it turned out, he had already lost his escape route from that point on.

...But if ■■■ is so important to him, how can Alastor accept a truth that might be unremarkable to the other person?

He needs the scale in ■■■'s hand.

But this scale now only makes him look so pathetic; not just because the scale wasn't given to him alone, but because it wasn't given to him because he was special, but because...

He will fight for the entire inn tomorrow, and I gave it to him because I was worried he would get hurt.

Clearly, this is a huge insult and contempt for the Broadcast Demon's abilities, and a ridiculous humiliation of his expectations.

As he said, he did need that scale—

But it's definitely not the right time to get it.

Alastor didn't want the lofty reward.

The golden roses she gave him were good; it's never wrong to give a sinner a soulless one.

The strength of sinner lords can mostly only be enhanced by signing contracts, and the roses given to him by [unclear] are no different from those madmen who want to fatten someone up in one go and have no concept of resources.
