Part 2 Episode 66
Fairy King Elven.
The absolute god who created the three thousand worlds.
A special being born with the blessing of Noname.
In the past, he was defeated in the demon war due to his arrogance, but he was the strongest prince who helped the second King of Underworld to victory in the race war.
He was a close friend with whom I lost contact after Taehyun was sent outside immediately after.
[Look carefully, contractor.]
The Elven pointed his index finger at Zenas.
I can feel the magic power scattered throughout the area moving silently.
It was a movement so small that it could not be felt unless you had an affinity for Shinsu.
and.
soon.
Pow.
Zenas’ head exploded.
[It is the power of Bonyo, who was called the Fairy King.]
* * *
The 4th floor of the tower. Infinite Hell, one of the hidden realms of the ancient great devil.
At the end of the maze-like hell, a huge altar was built.
Inexhaustible.
As the name suggests, a solo dance suddenly blew into a space where no one was present.
Hwii-.
When the poisonous dance that created a huge whirlwind disappeared, what appeared was Gilfer carrying the three great devils.
thud. thud. thud.
The three great demons, sealed with poisonous thorns, were laid down on the altar.
[Things turned out easier than I thought.]
She stared at the three great demons she had placed on the altar.
Barbatos, the great evil of ‘existence’.
Garot, the great evil of ‘Infiltration’.
Naberius, the great evil of ‘Curse’.
They are all great devils who survived the Battle of Ten Thousand Demons and have the potential to become devil kings.
Their existence was shaking unsteadily.
It is felt through the thorns of the poison net.
Barbatos and Naberius were angry, and Garot was trembling with fear.
For a great evil who had been taught the power of ‘fear’, he looked ridiculous.
[It’s a pity that I couldn’t catch Zenas and Biretta.]
Gilper thought of the two great devils with the powers of ‘loss’ and ‘expansion’.
If they absorb the fragments of Diablo they have, they are confident that they will also be able to skillfully wield the power of fear.
[Well, there’s no need to overdo it.]
The yoma war has just begun.
There will be plenty of opportunities to capture ancient great demons.
If you completely absorb the power implanted in them, it is no problem to make ‘poison’ and ‘fear’ yours again.
And by then.
[A new demon king will be born.]
Now, the most important thing was to regain strength little by little.
Sigh.
She placed the thorn in the center of the altar.
sssss-.
Dark blue magic power was injected through the thorns.
Hwarrrr-.
Blood-red magic burns on both sides of the altar in response to the desire that has been perfected.
Blood-red magic.
In the underworld, it is the color that symbolizes the vampire Lord Igmun.
[I feel it every time I use it… it’s an amazing item.]
I muttered as I looked at the altar that had already started to burn brightly.
Immediately after the unwanted regression, she quickly accepted what had happened to her.
I understood the law of the tower, I understood the law of existence, and I accepted the aftereffects of regression.
The two wars he went through were a secret that could not be told to anyone.
From desire to desirelessness during that short period of time. From desirelessness back to desire.
Afterwards, he acquired the power of ‘evolution’ and became the Demon King.
King of the underworld.
An entity that reigns over the great dukes of the lower world.
He became the third King of the Underworld, succeeding Taehyeon, the contractor.
And I was able to realize it.
The most essential thing for an ancient archdemon to become a demon king is the power of ‘absorption’.
Excluding the power of predation, it is the blessed power that can grow the fastest.
There was a need to regain the presence that had been lost by moving in secret.
That is why I accepted greedlessness for a different reason than before.
We attacked Igmun’s territory on the 4th floor.
I obtained several Blood Temples and learned how to use the altars.
Afterwards, an inexorable hell was created.
To others, it was nothing more than an incident that would have seemed like an ordinary hobby for an ancient arch-demon.
Gilfer shook his head as he looked at the three great devils being consumed by blood-red magic.
The Temple of Blood created in front of you is not an ordinary temple on the 4th floor.
It was an altar strengthened by the direct intervention of the owner of power.
This is when the Great Devil cannot even scream due to the flames burning his body.
[There are three people this time.] A
familiar voice sounded in Gilpere’s head.
Excuse me.
He was a vampire lord and an archduke whose hand he held.
[Once I regained my strength, my speed increased. Is it because of the demon war?]
His voice was cold, but he was smiling.
[Yes, it can be said to be an opportunity for the original demon.]
[King of the Underworld. It is difficult to forget the pleasure that name brings.]
[You speak as if you were the King of the Underworld.]
Gilper said coldly.
He is the one who succeeded Taehyeon as the King of the Underworld.
Afterwards, Igmun faced numerous challenges, but was never able to defeat her.
If we hadn’t had such a sudden regression like now, if we hadn’t needed each other’s strength, we wouldn’t have held hands.
[Gilfer. Be aware of reality.]
[….]
[I hope you don’t forget that your original spirit is stronger than you right now.]
Gilper exhaled softly.
There is nothing more foolish than being drunk on the past and not being able to live in the present.
She had to survive somehow.
[Be careful.]
[Okay, accept it. After all, didn’t we join hands to help each other?]
Tsuzuzuzu-.
Let’s wait for the blood-red magic to strengthen.
The bodies of the three great devils, who could not even scream, disappeared in the blink of an eye.
All that remained on the altar were three beads.
Igmun used his power to condense the existence of the Great Devil.
Naedan (內團).
Igmun referred to the object in front of him like that.
[The existential curse penetrates. They are indeed as good as Gorper. Moreover, the thoughts of Diablo contained in their thoughts are not to be trifled with.]
[….]
Gilper gazed at the three inner altars.
I fully experienced the effect using Gorper.
[Getting drunk is no different from before. With your current strength, you can probably handle it. Be grateful to your original spirit and absorb it.]
[That’s annoying, Igmun. You must have taken on quite a bit of existence power, right?]
[Hehehe. It’s not wrong.]
If the altar that Gilper took contained the existence power of the great devils, then Igmun absorbed the power of the great devils.
[How is Kim Tae-hyun doing?]
[Yes. If the current pace continues, the turf war will soon come to an end.]
[Territory war… It’s a nostalgic past.]
[There are many people looking for you. If we are not careful, the vampires will become extinct.]
[That is none of your concern.]
[Yes, I guess so. The original demon spoke for nothing.]
Igmun, who wants the power of the great devils, and Gilfer, who wants to restore his power of existence.
Their companionship cannot last forever.
I’ll have to keep in mind that I’ll crash at some point, but not now.
[Don’t worry, Gilper. You will gain the power of the Demon King like before and become the King of the Underworld.]
[Are you aiming to be the King of the Upper World?]
[King of the Upper World?]
Hahahaha.
Igmun burst into laughter.
[….]
[He is barely a king. The original spirit is looking ‘outside.’]
Outside.
That’s where his brother went out.
Constellation.
A place where those who created the three thousand worlds are located.
[Don’t worry. In order to go outside, you need appropriate assistance. Until then, let me help you.]
Sreuk.
When Igmun’s voice disappeared, she silently poured magic into the three inner altars.
Tsuzuzuzu-.
It is absorbed.
The existence power of the three great devils was intact without any loss.
It felt as if Igmun was directly using the power of absorption.
It will take time to completely digest it, but after that, you will be able to easily deal with at least four Asura-level demons.
[It’s a race against time.]
She does it in her own way.
I was preparing for the next stage.
* * *
“There is no such thing as a monster.”
Taehyun muttered as he looked at the Elven who was dealing with Zenas with one index finger.
[Why are you so surprised, contractor? If Bonyo puts his mind to it, he won’t be able to do XX or XX of those things.]
“It seems like your personality has changed a bit?”
[This is Bonyo’s original personality. It’s just that I lived in the shame for a long time and calmed down a lot.]
“Don’t you usually say things like that out of your own mouth?”
[You can still do this. Now, it will be finished soon, so just wait and see.]
“….”
Is it because it has been a long time since we last met?
A smile appeared on Taehyun’s face as he looked at the mischievous Elven.
Zenas’ body, which manifests considerable fear, is no match for the Elven.
‘I guess I can help Harun as soon as I finish it.’
In Harun, Biretta and an ancient archdemon still unknown remain.
And as many as 100,000 demons are waiting nearby.
‘I’m not worried.’
Two elders and five spirit kings who can do bonsai and fairy tales. Shinji can deal with the great demon Ashura who obeyed Taehyeon.
They will buy enough time to deal with the demonic forces led by the two ancient great demons.
‘The variable is the devil king. If only I could bring one of them here….’
Even if you hunt just one of the two demon kings here, you can win the demon war.
It was a very possible scenario for today’s Elven.
“Elven.”
Taehyun called Zenas to the Fairy King, who was taking out his anger on the Fairy War.
Zenas, who had turned into a piece of meat for a moment, was repeating regeneration at a clearly slower speed.
[why? Diablo’s imprint is quite deep in that guy’s mind. If it is not chipped away little by little, an explosion may occur.]
She explained the reason why she did not destroy Zenas all at once.
“No, more than that. “How about we bring the demon king here instead?”
[what? Are you out of your mind?]
Bringing in a guy with that level of morale is not good for Shinsu.
He said that if you make a mistake, Shinsu can suffer permanent shock.
It wasn’t wrong.
In fact, she had the experience of being defeated by demon kings.
But this time is different.
“You are not alone now.”
[Sigh… Contractor. If you are talking about that doppelganger…]
“No. “I won’t hand over your prey to that guy.”
[…?]
“Rosaria.”
[….]
“You probably know the final state she reached, right?”
The Elven sighed.
[That’s the case when you throw away all the restraints. With her current strength, she cannot properly handle even a demon king.]
“You are certain. Then trust me. “I am confident.”
[This crazy contractor…is he asking me to bet with the lives of Shinsoo and Bonyo?]
“A bigger war is coming. “It’s dangerous to get caught up in a turf war.”
Constellation War.
I didn’t say those words out loud, but that doesn’t mean the weight of them disappears.
Elven also did not know its meaning.
[It seems like a contractor like XX…. How can I not have a good day if I get involved with you?]
“Don’t say things you don’t mean.”
Taehyun giggled and unleashed his magic power.
Knowing that she agreed.
“Don’t kill Zenas, but capture him. “It will be of great help as a medium.”
Taehyun, who assimilated with Shinsoo, infused magical power.
Tiring.
[Skill ‘Spatial Leap (SSS)’ has been activated.]
[Search for coordinates.]
[Coordinates have been specified.]
Argh.
A huge gate opened in front of Taehyun.
There was no need to go directly.
After a while.
A benevolent queen wrapped in purple magic came over.
[Elven.]
[Rosaria.]
Fairy King and Succubus Queen.
The archdukes who had fought together in the past two wars exchanged strange glances.
Right after.
[You look good.]
[Same goes for you. It looks like you’ve regained your strength quite a bit?]
Pisik.
Smirk.
As expected of those who stayed by Taehyun’s side until the last day, they exchanged emotions quickly.
“I think that’s enough of greetings. I plan to summon the Demon King here in Rosaria.”
A look of surprise flashed across Rosaria’s face at the one-sided declaration.
But that only lasts for a moment.
[You’re going to use that guy.] An
ancient archdemon that contains more of Diablo’s power than anyone else, and a divine beast that will replenish infinite magical power.
And there is the Archduke, who has the power of mind control and space leap.
Rosaria, who sensed Taehyun’s thoughts, nodded.
“Yes, that’s enough power to catch one anti-aircraft gun.”
Tiring.
[Skill ‘Queen’s Domain (SSS)’ has been activated.]
[Skill ‘Fairy King’s Protection (SSS)’ has been activated.]
At the same time as Taehyun uses the skill.
Achromatic and purple.
Two great forces assist.
A demon race that forms the largest force in the underworld.
The prelude to this turf war.
It will begin with capturing the demon king Diablo.
