Part 2 Episode 67 The Demon
World.
From the throne erected for the Lord of Terror, Diablo confirmed what was happening through a shared view.
[Jenas. It ended up like this.]
A faint regret was evident in his voice.
The ancient great evil Zenas.
He is a brother who survived the Battle of Ten Thousand Demons and achieved great potential.
His powers are lost.
A rare power that gains greater power every time it loses ancient great demons.
Diablo, who recognized its value early on, planted one of his body pieces in the image.
I thought he would be of great use someday.
He was at a level higher than his brothers who survived the Battle of Ten Thousand Demons.
After becoming the Demon King and reaching a new level, his body fragments become a medium that can temporarily elevate the Great Demons to a level similar to that of the Demon King.
That is why the brothers accepted their pieces obediently.
And now.
The Great Devil, who was more likely to draw on his power more deeply than anyone else, was repeating destruction and rebirth with a miserable appearance.
His own brother, who was supposed to tear Harun apart, is being torn to pieces by her magic in the realm of the Elf King.
[Mastema. What do you think?]
Diablo asked the Archdemon who shared his vision.
Mastema, the great evil of ‘Gate’.
Although he is not an ancient archvillain, he is a being with potential just as good as them.
As time passed, he would naturally become a force equal to theirs.
[It looks similar to my power. As long as there are enough coordinates and media, there won’t be many places in the underworld he can’t move to.]
[I see.]
Diablo agreed.
Even if the magic power of the bonsai was used, it was the power to transport a being of the size of Zenas through space.
It might be possible to summon a large supply.
[What do you want to do?]
[Connect with Beelzebub.]
At Diablo’s command, Mastema’s magic took the shape of a gate.
Beelzebub’s frivolous laughter was heard beyond the gate.
[Diablo. What’s going on again?]
[I don’t have time, so I’ll just get to the point. The original horse will soon enter the realm of the Fairy King.]
[What?]
This time, Beelzebub also reacted as if he was dumbfounded.
That would be the case too.
If they enter the Elven territory, it will be after more than 50% of the fairy villages have been destroyed.
Arun and Harun’s work to transform the demon world was in full swing, and not one of the ten villages had collapsed yet.
However, when they suddenly contact you and change your plan, even Beelzebubbra, who lives by following his instincts, is embarrassed.
[The fairy and the succubus joined hands.]
[But? Why is that a reason to enter the realm of the Fairy King?]
It was a rational question, uncharacteristic of Beelzebub.
[Elven and Rosaria. Their contractors have space-traveling technology. Zenas, who has already unlocked the power of the original demon, was summoned to the realm of the Fairy King.]
[….]
[If you use the power of the divine beast, it will be possible to summon the original demon through Zenas.] [
Oh. So you weren’t going to invade, you were going to be hunted?]
Kill, kill, kill.
Beelzebub, who had been listening in silence, let out a laugh that was not appropriate for an emergency situation.
[Didn’t I tell you? Planting body parts in other guys is like creating a needless weakness.]
Beelzebub taunted Diablo.
Diablo shook his head.
They know that as the power of the demon race grows, the potential for the demon king also expands.
Rather, as the Archdemon who imprinted his body parts grows, it is highly likely that the main body, Diablo, will also gain new possibilities.
It is a hidden weapon that can be taken out in the unlikely event of an engagement with an anti-aircraft gun.
So far, things have been smooth.
If this war had ended as planned, many demon kings would have been born and he would have become a being in a new realm.
If we get through this crisis, that possibility is still valid.
[There will be a way to prove that later. Bonma plans to turn the current crisis into an opportunity.]
[Opportunity? Seeing that you have Mastema by your side, it looks like you’re trying to ask your main horse for help?]
Diablo laughed at Beelzebub’s continued ridicule.
He is rational, but he is also the master of fear.
To him who has never felt fear in his life, Beelzebub’s provocation is nonsense. Nothing more, nothing less.
[Think calmly. Would you be able to withstand the armies of fairies and dream demons without your main demon?]
[Giggles. You never know. Are they at a level to be called an army in the first place?]
Diablo glanced at Zenas’ gaze.
They are resisting by raising their fear to the extreme, but in reality, it is as if they are holding on with their regenerative power.
This means there isn’t much time left.
Rosaria was visible through Zenas’s shaking vision.
It is taunting Zenas by swinging its hundreds of tentacles like whips.
As if trying to challenge his own authority.
[I will hand over the bodies of the Succubus Queen and the Fairy King.]
[…!!]
Beelzebub’s excited breathing can be heard beyond the gate.
[Instead, their contract is held by the main horse. We will own the divine beast together as planned.]
I can only take one human and hand over two large supply monsters.
In effect, it meant giving up all the spoils of this battle.
[It’s an offer I can’t refuse. Is it worth that much to a human being?]
[Even the original demon cannot know that. I’ll have to find out from now on.]
A human reflected in Zenas’ vision.
The contractees of fairies and dream demons are assimilated with the main body of the divine beast.
Although human contractors are rare, they are not so rare that they cannot be obtained if you take the time.
It was natural for Beelzebub to react like that.
However, his sense of being at the top of all the demons who survived the Battle of Ten Thousand Demons speaks volumes.
‘There’s something about that guy.’
A strange sense of déjà vu I’ve been feeling lately.
For some reason, I am convinced that they are all related to that person.
No, even if it’s not true.
[today. Elven and Rosaria will be hunted by their original demons.]
In response to Diablo’s declaration.
[Squeak, squeak.]
Beelzebub’s distorted roar echoed through the gate.
* * *
When Diablo opened his eyes, he realized that he had been summoned to the realm of the Fairy King.
A huge divine beast rose before my eyes, and Elven and Rosaria were guarding it.
[You have summoned the original demon.]
His eyes turned to Zenas’s torn body.
[There is no way a contractor or something would have this kind of power. Which of the two has this power?]
[Diablo. It’s been a while since I’ve seen you.]
[XX thing. Now I can finally see that XX-like face.]
Rosaria and the Elven laughed as they controlled the space that had begun to distort around Diablo.
I used up quite a bit of my stamina to summon Diablo through Zenas.
Even so, the result of the Demon King being hunted does not change.
Diablo twitched his red thorn while looking at the Queen of Dream Demons.
[Rosaria. I will transfer you to the demon tribe now, so stick with your original demon. Don’t you think that a dream demon and a fairy are an incompatible combination?]
[It’s a pathetic suggestion. It seems more attractive to try to kill someone outright like Beelzebub.]
Diablo burst out laughing.
[Fairies and giants. The devil is at the root of all species in the underworld, except for them. You probably don’t know that your roots are no different from the devil in the end. Ah, Lucifer is an exception.]
A fallen angel who suddenly appeared one day and took over the throne of the Grand Duke.
He thought of a gloomy guy who lived in a sky castle floating above the underworld and never showed himself.
Rosaria responded by waving her tentacles.
[This is because her children are more delicate than they look. Well, it seems like Lilith would have accepted your offer.]
[Lilith?]
Diablo tilted his head.
I think I heard it somewhere, but I don’t remember.
The corners of Rosaria’s mouth rose when she saw that.
[It seems like your memories are not intact either.]
Grumble. Grumble.
Tentacles leaking out from beneath her feet narrowed the distance between her and Diablo.
[No need to say much. You will be destroyed here today.]
[Yes. It was truly a shitty conversation. Thanks to this, my strength has fully recovered.]
The colorless magic released by the Elven crushed Diablo’s massive body.
The power of the Dragon Lord. It is an imitation of ‘paegi’.
If you had never seen it in person, you would think Hazard was here, and it is so powerful.
[Trivial things.]
Diablo sneered and spread three pairs of wings.
It revealed its six horns and opened its three-pronged tail.
My back bent and my long arms touched the floor.
Kwasik.
Rosaria’s tentacles were torn off just by being brushed by Diablo’s tail.
[The main horse is today. I will confirm the fear in your eyes.]
* * *
Diablo’s smile deepened.
Elven and Rosaria.
It was not easy to deal with the two archdukes.
Moreover, since he could not summon the demon world, there were limitations in using his power.
If he hadn’t reached a new level as the Demon King, he would have died several times already.
[That tough bastard.]
The Elven cursed despite his polite face.
This is because Diablo’s presence is greater than I realized.
Attacks that would normally have been enough to destroy him were hit several times.
However, it shows incredible vitality and is constantly repeating regeneration.
Even so.
[It’s only a matter of time.]
The magic power of Shinsoo is infinite.
Conversely, the power of the Demon King, who cannot even be summoned by the Demon World, is limited.
The fact that its regeneration is slowly slowing down proves that fact.
This is when the Elven is once again generating magical bullets.
She turned her head with a sudden sense of déjà vu.
The magical power of the demon race was blooming from the sacred tree.
The person who has been assimilated into Shinsoo is his contractor, Kim Tae-hyun.
‘Is the power of the devil that was consumed earlier running rampant? No, I’m not a contractor who can’t control that much….’
An assumption passed through her mind.
[No way…]
[I guess I finally realized it. There are people with the ability to open space here as well.]
However, it just takes time for the complete movement of existence power.
Diablo said without hiding his wild laughter.
Immediately after, the space next to Shinsu shook.
This is not a typical spatial synchronization phenomenon.
The moment when the swaying space took the shape of a gate.
Sssss.
Purple magic leaked out.
[Giggles.]
With a frivolous laugh.
The Demon King with four red eyes split like flies jumped out.
[The Demon King brother is such a mess.]
Five pairs of wings spread out behind Beelzebub’s back.
Beelzebub, which moved at a speed that was difficult to follow with the naked eye, dodged hundreds of tentacles and magic bullets.
The Elven swore and Rosaria’s tentacles split to narrow the siege.
[Your opponent is Bonma.]
Diablo maximized the fear he had saved and slowed down the bodies of the Elven and Rosaria.
During that brief slowdown, Beelzebub reached the divine tree.
The divine beast’s barrier was corroded by the poisonous dance that spewed from the Demon King’s mouth.
Beelzebub, who had completely torn the barrier apart with his thorns, thrust his face into me.
Before my eyes, I saw a human with a bewildered face who had assimilated into a divine beast.
[It’s you.]
Pugh.
Beelzebub’s thorn pierced Taehyeon’s body.
[Fuck!!]
[Contractor!!]
Paying no heed to the urgent cries of the Elven and Rosaria.
Crack.
Beelzebub bit Taehyeon’s body.
Quad, quack, quack.
The Demon King’s predation has begun.
