Analyze this story in detail and answer why the devil appeared to Ivan in his true form, and not in a deceptive guise: "In the quiet village, the miller, Ivan, was renowned for his industriousness and robust character. His household was a testament to years of hard work — a solid house, bright and well-kept, and a family that was the epitome of virtue and honesty. On a crisp autumn morning, Ivan set off with his cart full of freshly milled flour, intent on making a good sale at the local market.

As Ivan trotted along the solitary path through the dense forest, where the sunlight dappled through the canopy, he sensed an unease creeping up his spine. It was not long before he was approached by a peculiar figure — an anthropomorphic goat with a mocking grin. The creature’s black, stiff wool glimmered eerily, and its movements were unsettlingly energetic. The air around him carried an unpleasant, sulfuric smell.

“Good day, miller,” the devil said, his voice jovial and taunting. “Might I hitch a ride with you to the market?”

Ivan shivered but nodded reluctantly. To refuse a traveler, even one as sinister as this, could bring worse misfortune. The devil clambered into the cart with an energetic and restless vigor and began to chat.

The devil was indeed a great craftsman. With a regular axe that Ivan kept at the bottom of the cart, the devil began carving intricate designs into the wooden sides, transforming the mundane into an artwork. He crafted a flute from a reed stem and played it with uncanny skill, filling the air with otherworldly melodies.

Their conversation meandered through various topics, but Ivan was always on guard. The devil, with his forked tongue, subtly steered the talk towards Ivan’s wife, Maria. “Tell me, good miller,” the devil began slyly, “about the woman who keeps your household. I hear she is quite remarkable.”

Ivan bristled, feeling the underlying insinuation. “My wife is a virtuous woman,” he replied curtly.

“Oh, I have no doubt,” the devil retorted with a sly smile. “In fact, I seem to recall meeting her… perhaps more closely than you’d think.”

Ivan’s jaw tightened, but he remained outwardly calm. He had heard enough stories of demons and their trickery. Sensing the danger in the devil’s words, Ivan began to murmur a prayer under his breath. The effect was immediate and dramatic—the devil let out an unearthly screech, leaped from the cart, and disappeared into the ground, leaving only a faint stench behind.

Relieved but on edge, Ivan continued his journey. Before long, he encountered another peculiar figure: a strikingly beautiful woman with thick red hair, her smooth, velvety skin glowing in the dappled sunlight. Her curves defied the imagination, hidden poorly by her traditional clothing that did little to conceal her enormous breasts, wide hips, and a backside that jutted out provocatively. She walked with a sensual gait, her voluptuousness swaying hypnotically.

“Good sir, might I trouble you for a ride?” she asked, her voice like honey.

Ivan, taken in by her beauty, did not initially recognize her as a supernatural being. He helped her into the cart, trying to keep his gaze respectful. As they traveled, she leaned closer, whispering sweet and seductive words with her full, luscious lips. Her attempts to entice him grew bolder, and Ivan felt his resolve slipping.

Suddenly, his eyes caught a glimpse of small, barely visible horns hidden under her lush hairdo. Realization struck him like a lightning bolt. “In the name of the Holy Trinity!” Ivan exclaimed, grabbing the she-devil by her horns and making the sign of the cross on her forehead.

With a wailing shriek, the she-devil plummeted into the earth, leaving Ivan shaken but resolute. Swiping the sweat from his brow, Ivan muttered another prayer for strength and continued on his path, his mind now clear and his heart fortified.

When Ivan finally returned home from the market, his heart swelled with love as he embraced his wife, Maria. Her beauty was humble and honest, not the exaggerated allure of the she-devil, but to Ivan, she was the most beautiful woman in the world. Their love, tested and true, was a sanctuary, an unbreakable bond blessed by God.

Meanwhile, in the dark and fiery underworld, the goat-like devil raged in his defeat. “You failed us with your ridiculous seduction!” he snapped at his voluptuous wife.

“You were no better with your pathetic lies about his wife!” she retorted, her beauty now twisted with fury.

Their quarrel echoed through the infernal realms, a testament to the unyielding power of faith and love on earth, capable of overcoming even the darkest of temptations. And thus, the miller and his wife, bound by holy matrimony, continued to live a life of virtue, untouched by the snares of evil."
