Episode 389
[Gilfer. Have you regained your strength?]
I took a moment to focus my attention on Gilper’s fingernails that had cut off my thorn.
Mephisto scanned her body with gloomy red eyes shining.
They felt a similar level of magic as their own in Gilper’s body, who thought he had lost his power and was destroyed.
Mephisto was not the only one surprised.
Mamon and Asura also stopped fighting and looked at Gilfer’s body.
[I can sense the magic of Menaka and Deumus from you.]
The one who said that was Mammon, who was the fastest at detecting magic among the three great devils.
From bottom to top.
His eyes, scanning the body, stopped at Gilpere’s red eyes.
[However, the authority has not been regained yet.]
The look of disdain was evident.
[….]
[It is a half-resurrection. It’s no different from Typhon.]
It was Asura who said that.
He, too, had finished understanding Gilper’s body.
By some means, he regained some of his magical power by taking the power of Menaka and Deumus.
The master’s rampage resulted in the awakening of power.
In the end, the authority was not restored.
Asura underestimated Gilfer’s recovery.
Despite the repeated ridicule, Gilper was unaffected.
It is a mockery that has continued since the moment he abandoned his authority.
I was so used to it that it was boring.
[What is the importance of authority in dealing with you guys?]
Gilper said indifferently.
It was sincere, not a provocation.
The law of the Abyss, at least temporarily, in return for throwing away the power.
He was able to avoid the influence of the Underworld King.
Thanks to this, I was able to preserve a significant amount of memory, although it was not perfect.
A racial war that I can’t even remember how many times it was.
If only she hadn’t abandoned her powers at the end of the most recent species war.
[The original demon would have been no different from you now.]
As a complete archdemon.
As Beelzebub’s faithful servant.
He may have inherited his power and become a more powerful being.
[Well, it’s not true power.]
She muttered self-deprecatingly.
[What are you talking about?]
Asura radiated speculation.
The person who was dealing with Asura a little while ago was Rosaria.
She wasn’t excited by Asura, who turned her attention to Gilper even before me.
Rather, I was curious.
Gilper, the great evil that Taehyun dragged into.
What did she gain after being with Taehyun?
What kind of contract did his contractor sign this time?
However, contrary to Rosaria’s thoughts, Gilper’s feelings with Taehyeon were more personal than interests.
Although it hasn’t been long since I was with Taehyun.
Because I liked my current life of struggle more than under Beelzebub.
[Without power, she is just a piece of tough meat.]
Mamon belittled her once more.
[Unless you can completely overcome the magical power of Beelzebub within your body anyway. Isn’t it impossible to escape from him?]
She criticized the ancient brothers who were looking at me sinisterly.
[We are all just pieces of meat soaked in poison.]
She continued speaking, paying no heed to the squirming reaction, and looked at Beelzebub, who was motionless.
Before this plan is implemented.
I remembered the conversation I had with Taehyun.
[It will not be easy to draw Beelzebub from the main body into the world of images. Even if the Grand Dukes assist you, in the end, it is your body and mind that must be handled. In the worst case, you will have to prepare for extinction in the world of images.]
“I guess so.”
[Isn’t life a waste? Looking at your actions, it seems like that.]
“Is there anyone who doesn’t value his life? “I just risk my life to do what needs to be done.”
[….]
“It’s surprising. “I thought it was the same.”
[What do you mean?]
“Throwing away one’s innate power. “In order to avoid the laws of the Abyss, didn’t the Archduke choose not to do it?”
[…I just wanted to know. What does the Underworld King want? What lies at the end of the tribal war?]
“Same. I need to know what the Underworld King was thinking when he made me a key. To do that, we take out the Elven who was eaten by Beelzebub. Even if it means risking your life.”
Gilfer looked at Taehyun and Beelzebub in front of him.
Neither of them makes any movement.
I could tell that I had entered a world of imagery.
And there once again.
They will be fighting and risking their lives to separate the Elven.
[The power of desire has gone to someone more suitable than anyone else.]
A faint smile spread across Gilper’s lips.
The three great devils looked at that with disapproving expressions.
Gilper continued.
Taehyun Kim will surpass Beelzebub.
He said he felt like he had caught a better rope than the rotten club called Beelzebub.
[I asked what he was talking about. Are you just saying such crazy things?]
[You’ve lost your mind like Gorper.]
[It’s because the few remaining ancient brothers are so stupid.]
[It’s you who are pathetic. The main horse will sit on the archduke’s left seat. I don’t know if your lives will survive until then.]
The three great devils burst out laughing at Gilpere’s declaration.
The one who interrupted that laughter was Rosaria.
[He is a great devil who takes over the place of the Grand Duke. First of all, shouldn’t we protect the original woman’s contract?]
[I agree. Queen of the Dream Demons.]
A standoff continued.
Rosaria is Asura.
Igmun is Mammon.
Gilfer joined Typhon’s side against Mephisto.
[Hehehe. This is not true.]
Typhon said pessimistically about my situation.
I knew it.
Now, except for his stronger body, he would have been ashamed to be called the King of Giants.
[There is no need to blame yourself, Giant King. Your contractor will restore it to its ancient glory.]
[Puhuhuh. I can’t believe I heard those words from the Great Devil. Now that I’m alive again, fun things never stop happening!!]
The battle continued with Typhon’s final shout.
The poison emanating from Beelzebub’s body grew stronger, and each time it did so, the magic power of the four great devils also grew stronger.
Rosaria was not in perfect condition to operate personal space.
Igmun was using excessive force with his alter ego.
Typhon was fighting an equal battle with Mephisto with Gilfer joining him.
While Gilfer blocks eight of Mephisto’s thorns.
Paz, that is. That’s it.
Kwareung!!
Typhon’s fist, engulfed in lightning, struck the archdemon in the back.
I can’t say there are no injuries.
Immediately after seeing Mephisto playing at high speed, Typhon complained.
The power he can currently produce is the magic stone, horn, and tail of the arrogant ancient great devil.
I felt like I couldn’t handle all of this at once.
My body is getting more and more tired.
Mephisto’s magical power was getting stronger.
[It’s an ancient street, but it lives up to its name!!]
Typhon shouted as he saw Mephisto returning to his original form.
[Giant King. We have to deal with him quickly.]
[You know it too!!]
Despite Typhon’s anger, Gilper continued calmly.
[There are three sources of power that we, the Great Devils, have. Beelzebub can also explode three times. The current runaway is only the first stage.]
[What?!!]
[The moment they open the remaining two parts and go berserk, they will also gain power that transcends their limits. That power is momentary. It will be enough to reach the full height of the Great Duke.]
[…!!]
Typhon shouted, “Why are you telling me that now?”
Mephisto burst into laughter.
Because it is true.
they saw
What kind of power does Beelzebub exert when he causes all three body parts, including the heart, to explode?
He will become a true demon king who was too much for even the fairy king, who did not lose his arrogance even in the face of dozens of archdukes and archdemons.
Even other archdukes don’t know that.
This was a fact known only to the ancient great devils who were present when the Fairy King was dealt with.
Rosaria’s expression darkened at Gilfer’s words.
I’ve become such a nuisance even now, but how can I become even stronger?
More than anything, I was worried about Taehyun in the image world.
In the end, it will be Taehyun who will deal with Beelzebub, who has gone berserk.
This is the moment to strengthen Rosaria’s saved power due to an unexpected fact.
It was Mammon who moved first.
[The time has come.]
Mephisto and Asura let out a bitter laugh.
Damn. So so so so so.
Like when the three great devils appeared.
A crack appeared in the space.
[…!!]
[…!!]
[…!!]
Rosaria, of course.
Igmun and Typhon also looked perplexed.
This is because there is not just one crack.
The space split and three gates opened.
There, one by one, the great devils.
appeared.
The number of great devils that appeared was eleven.
Among them, there was no ancient great evil.
Each one resonated with Beelzebub’s rampage and was emitting unusual magical power.
[Are you late?]
Gilper muttered in a self-deprecating voice.
I knew it was only a matter of time before they arrived.
Even if the gate to the hidden area was closed with the power of Mastema, who has the power of the gate, the archdemons were also beings that deviated from common sense.
Finding a countermeasure would not have been difficult.
only.
Even though the response was quick, it was too fast.
The fact that the Great Demons were able to grasp the situation earlier due to Beelzebub’s rampage and that they were able to forcibly activate the gate to the hidden area with stronger magic seemed to have acted as variables.
This is the moment when everyone’s attention is drawn to the newly appeared great devils.
Mamon’s poisonous thorns targeted Taehyeon’s body.
It was an attack that wouldn’t be surprising if it pierced the head at any moment.
Kyaang!!
Suddenly, a bloody curtain was created in front of Taehyeon, blocking the thorns.
Igmun developed a blood field around Taehyun.
[Demon bastard. [What you are doing is still despicable.]
Igmun cursed at Mammon, asking if he had dared to turn a blind eye to me.
Holding a blood sword.
He stood in front of Taehyun and stretched out his hand.
It was directed at the dragon tribe elders who had fallen while avoiding the battle between the three great devils.
Wow!!
Seven blood swords were lodged in the abdomen of the seven elders.
[…!!]
[Knock…!!]
[Khaa….]
[That guy…]
[…That’s it!!]
[Kak…]
[Khaa…. ] ]
It seems like the momentum of the seven angry elders is none of his business.
Tsuzzzzzzzz.
Igmun used the power of absorption.
During the battle between the great demons, the Dragon Heart’s magic power, which had recovered briefly, was drawn out again.
[Noisy, you useless lizards. All you have to do is offer your magic power to the original ghost.]
As Igmun’s power grew stronger, the elders’ bodies became thinner.
I was planning on squeezing out all my life force.
If Mammon had not interfered with Igmun’s absorption, the seven elders would have perished.
Gagagagagagak!!
Mammon scratched the tent that Igmun had spread with his poisonous claws.
The same was true for other great devils who joined later.
Because it is not a main body, there is a limit to the output no matter how much horsepower is squeezed out.
If things continued like this, not only would Kim Tae-hyun be taken away by the great devils surrounding him, but he would also lose his alter ego.
[Even if it is an alter ego, the archduke is still an archduke.]
[This is his final struggle.]
[Each time the alter ego disappears, its existence decreases, right?]
[Clarkclack. From what I heard, he had already lost quite a few clones.]
The Great Demons laughed at Igmun, who was struggling.
None of what was said was wrong.
Quickly.
Igmun gritted his teeth.
Ever since I became entangled with Kim Tae-hyun, nothing has happened.
If he could not protect Kim Tae-hyun, he could be taken down from the throne of the Grand Duke.
[dare!! What do you think of my original spirit!!]
Igmun shouted and fired a barrage of blood-red magic.
The magical power absorbed from the seven elders scattered into the air.
As many as a thousand blood tests were made in the area.
It was a skill that I could be proud of as being by far the best among the wide range skills that Igmun, my alter ego, could cast.
[Bow your head before your true spirit, you devils.]
Tsuzzzzzzzzzz.
A blood sword imbued with power.
started to fall.
