Chapter 233. Satan has to roll for the best taste (1)
“What? Master singer Reut Frontera? Are you in the center of hell?”
This is a lava bath in the metropolitan area (?) near Hell Castle.
Fifteen Satanists were warming themselves in the lava.
Satan, who has increased his parents’ worries today.
Satan, who made my parents’ wrinkles even deeper.
Satans who succeeded in breaking their parents’ backs with all sorts of evil were gathered in twos and threes.
Normally, they were satans who would make noise as if they were proud of their immorality and defeat.
But today was a little different.
It was because a topic that was fresher than usual was on the cutting board.
“Lloyd Frontera?”
“Wait, the rumored main character of the other world who can’t sing high notes?”
“I heard that Hellknight Sir Geolexius went to Gaol after hearing that song?”
“Quack. Why not?”
The one-horned Satan who brought the news grinned.
“Didn’t everyone feel it a few days ago? The gate to hell opened.”
“I felt it.”
“Then the person in charge must have felt the stepping into hell.”
“of course. But that Lloyd Frontera is at the center of Hell?”
“okay.”
The one-horned Satan nodded.
“Everyone is slow to hear. This morning, the King of Hell issued decrees everywhere.”
“Is that true?”
“of course.”
“really?”
“Then did you make the decree of the king of hell false without me?”
“but. That would not be it.”
“of course. So you have to believe it.”
“good night. Believe. So let’s go listen to the master singer’s song! To the edge of hell!”
“…I said Lloyd Frontera was in the center of Hell.”
“So, let’s go to the end.”
“why?”
“If you were like me, would you believe what someone like you says?”
“….”
“let’s go! To the end!”
Fifteen Satans who had been warming up in the lava bath arose.
I packed my things and set out on a journey to the edge of hell.
It wasn’t just there.
Even in the vicinity of Hell Castle.
Even at the foot of an unknown volcano.
Even in the smoke-filled abyss of purgatory.
All sorts of satanic fiends heard the news of Lloyd Frontera.
The journey to the edge of hell began.
The reasons were all the same.
‘Are you a famous singer? Didn’t you get compliments and get compliments from everyone? So you should check it out. Is the gnome song actually that terrible. And if the song differs even a little from the rumors….’
I will spread evil.
I will take the pod and exaggerate even the smallest things.
I will bite and slander until I feel like dying.
That would damage the reputation of the master singer.
Because he’s better than you.
But I don’t know why he’s doing well.
Because that kind of unqualified guy has to go down somehow.
Because that makes me feel a little bit better.
At this point, I’m going to pull it by the hair and pull it down.
‘Hehehe be prepared.’
Satans sharpened their insidious knives in their hearts.
Lloyd Frontera?
Can’t hear high in the world?
A masterpiece of the century?
My stomach twisted whenever I heard such rumors.
He didn’t seem to be particularly better than himself, but he couldn’t understand the fact that he was gaining fame and being praised.
I think I’m much better than that guy.
If he had the chance, he would be much more famous than that guy.
But the world, like an idiot, doesn’t know that.
That’s why he is sadly buried.
But one day he will come to mind too.
that it will perform at its best.
That’s why we need to bring down the guy who has an unsuitable reputation.
Only then will this stupid world be corrected a little.
That’s what Satan thought.
shady jealousy.
insidious competition.
Hiding a pile of envy inside.
As many as 30,000 unemployed Satanists flocked like clouds to the edge of Hell.
Seeing that, Xaviel became his flagship.
“…Could this be the purpose of requesting cooperation from the King of Hell?”
“uh. of course.”
“Did you expect this from the beginning?”
“Of course not.”
This is the end of hell.
At the top of a sharp rock towering there, Lloyd shrugged.
And I looked around at the group of 30,000 Satans gathered like a cloud under the rock.
‘Just right.’
More than expected.
This is satisfactory enough.
The corner of Lloyd’s mouth, looking at the satanic crowd, rose warmly like a farmer’s smile in the harvest season.
his words continued.
“Think about it. What kind of town is this?”
“It is hell.”
“By the way, how do you think Satan will react when they hear the news of a famous and praised person?”
“Did you think it would reveal envy and jealousy?”
“uh. answer.”
Lloyd laughed.
“That’s it. I saw that they would gather to drag me out and denigrate me. The result is this.”
Lloyd pointed at the plain.
Whoa whoa!
Thirty thousand Satans who saw his hand responded.
The plains were filled with wild clamor.
At first, it was the Satans who howled over Jung-gu heating.
Gradually, as time passed, the calls became unified.
“Choose one song! right now!”
threatening urge.
ferocious gaze.
The spirit of the gathered satans became even more ferocious.
Lloyd’s smile as he looked down at the satans became more meaningful.
he made handnabal
I activated the dark mind method.
Strengthen vocal chords with amplified mana.
His clearing of his cough, which was ten times louder than usual, echoed across the plain through his hands.
“Chemm! hmm!”
It was from the moment the sound rang.
The plains, which had been filled with wild cries, became quiet.
The satans all shut their mouths.
Tens of thousands of pairs of eyes focused on Lloyd.
everyone waited
May Lloyd’s song begin.
everyone expected
May you catch a pod in Lloyd’s song.
The moment when everyone’s shady longing and desire reach their peak.
Lloyd’s smile darkened.
“Did you guys gather here expecting me to sing for you?”
“…!”
Everyone flinched.
Lloyd’s calm words continued.
“But you don’t want me to sing?”
“….”
“why me?”
“….”
“Do you have any reason to call me?”
“…Nonsense!”
A one-horned Satan shouted in a fit of rage.
“We’ve come this far! I want to hear your song!”
“Yeah?”
“But you’re not going to sing! Does this even make sense!”
“Is it okay?”
“…what?”
“What does it have to do with a lot of you gathering and me having to sing?”
Lloyd asked with a smirking smile.
“Though!
The one-horned Satan responded in bewilderment.
“The King of Hell has issued a decree! You will sing here!”
“huh. It just got cancelled.”
“….”
“I feel so sorry for all of you guys who have come this far to listen to a song that will not be of any help to your life if you listen to it. isn’t it? Do you think everyone is really free with nothing to do?”
“….”
“Besides, did I promise you anything? it’s not But why are you talking like it’s your duty to sing? It’s my heart whether I do or not. is not it?”
“….”
“So don’t do it.”
“no! Even though!”
“Are you embarrassed?”
“of course!”
“Then let’s all pretend to be fished by me.”
“….”
“Ah, then you want to be more unfair?”
“….”
bubbling.
Heat boiled in the hearts of the gathered satans.
He looked up at Lloyd with glowing eyes.
If I could, I wanted to tear that human to pieces right away.
But I couldn’t.
why?
Because the silver-haired knight next to him is too strong.
Because he was the one who defeated the Hell Knight Hell’s 1st corps commander.
If he clumsily attacked, all the ordinary Satanists like himself would be slaughtered, be it thousands or tens of thousands.
Like that, Lloyd’s ridicule poured out at the staggering Satans.
“Does everyone still have something to do? Or is it because of lingering? I have more important things to do than deal with you guys here. If it’s unfair, throw it away. Or go back to where you came from and show filial piety to your parents.”
“….”
Satans who are silent in anger.
Lloyd left them and came down the other side of the rock.
Xaviel, who had been waiting, frowned.
Uncharacteristically for a guy, his eyes were concerned about me.
“That Lloyd.”
“Yes why?”
“Aren’t they Satans gathered by asking the King of Hell for help?”
“Oh yes.”
“But why did you treat them that way?”
“huh?”
“There will be no benefit to be gained against them in a heartless and vulgar way.”
“You think so?”
“yes. When they get together, Lloyd-sama will say that terrible…I thought I would win their hearts by singing.”
“Did you see that they would be used as workers?”
“yes. That’s why I’m worried.”
“What are you worried about?”
“I wonder if they will hold a grudge and try to interfere with Mr. Lloyd’s work.”
“uh. I’m sure it will.”
“yes?”
“Surely it will.”
“But why….”
“Did you do something?”
“yes.”
“It’s just to get in the way of my work. That way things will work.”
“yes?”
“I don’t have much time to explain. let’s get to work Follow me.”
I gestured to the bewildered boy.
I was taken to a place I had noticed in advance near the edge of hell.
It was a flat terrain with an open area nearby.
On one side, it was also a place where a lava pond that was less hardened and bubbling met.
“Now, let’s start shoveling.”
chin!
I took a folding shovel out of my backpack and handed it to Xaviel.
He himself gripped the shovel tightly.
Xaviel tilted her head.
“Are you trying to dig up this place?”
“huh.”
“What are you shoveling for?”
“hunt.”
“yes?”
“Because in a few days, prey will come in line.”
“A prey….”
“There is such a thing. It’s like a precious game that will supply key materials for railroad construction.”
“….”
Xaviel looked at Lloyd with strange eyes.
What are you thinking about living?
He is truly incomprehensible.
If I could, I would like to look inside at least once.
It’s the same with that smile as you turn around and smile.
Like someone who knows everything in advance.
“Why are you looking at me so curiously?”
“….”
“I am not a prophet. Wasn’t there a person among your ancestors who was a god? Right now, this is definitely a process of preparing by predicting the situation calculated and designed in the head.”
“….”
“So, let’s dig as we say?”
“All right.”
what are you planning to do?
what are you preparing for?
I never knew.
I could only guess one thing.
‘I’m sure you know more about Hell than anyone else.’
I thought so.
Even when I went to meet the King of Hell.
The image of meeting and talking with the King of Hell.
And even at this moment.
Lloyd-sama gave the impression that he alone knew something in Hell that he and others did not know.
‘but….’
Whatever it is, believe it first.
At least Lloyd-sama isn’t someone who harms those around him.
Because he is a person who has devoted countless times for Yeongji and everyone around him.
Let’s believe this again.
The silver-haired knight made that promise.
And he faithfully followed Lloyd’s instructions.
“Can I dig the ground according to these construction guidelines?”
“of course.”
Tsutsutsutsutsu!
Before I knew it, construction guidelines were engraved in detail on the ground.
It was from then.
Xaviel worked diligently with Lloyd.
I dug and scooped and dug again.
I dug without getting tired.
It was the shoveling of a grand master.
Pudongi and Belle also added to it.
Thanks to this, the party was able to dig a huge tunnel in less than half a day.
Overall, it was a tunnel in the shape of a large gourd.
The diameter of the entrance is about 10 meters.
The slope of the passage from the entrance is steep at 60 degrees.
At the end of the 100-meter passage, there was a large room.
The width and depth of the room was 80 200 50 meters high.
Lloyd dug a small bathtub in the center of the room.
And filled the bathtub.
That role was taken over by Hamangi.
“Hamang! Damn it!”
Horororok!
There was a bubbling hot spring nearby.
Hamang inhaled the hot spring water as if drinking hot coffee. has been packed spit in the bathtub
When the bathtub was filled, it was Kkomingi’s turn.
“Kkoming?”
“Kkoming?”
“Do you like taking a bath?”
“Kkoming!”
“You don’t enjoy it?”
“Komiming!”
“Hmm, but what do I do? Lately I’ve seen some fleas on your feathers.”
“Kkoming?”
“Then should I wash it?”
“Kkokkoming!”
“Yes, thank you for deciding. go into the water.”
“…Kkoming!”
with a plop!
Kkomingi jumped into the hot spring water.
At first, I didn’t like it very much.
When he jumped in, his expression stretched as if he was at ease.
“Kkokomimiying….”
“good?”
“Komiying….”
“Yes, I’m glad. It’s good, so let’s stay like that. About ten hours.”
“…Kkoming?”
“That way the broth will seep through enough.”
“….”
It was from then.
Kkomingyi had to take a hot spring bath for 10 hours, which was not even possible.
Even the water in the bathtub didn’t cool down well.
Because it was so rich in geothermal heat.
Thanks to that, Kkomingyi’s feet swelled very well.
It was thanks to such sacrifice(?).
The hot spring water that Kkomingyi soaked in was brewed into a proper fish broth (?).
“Hmmmm, it smells good.”
Lloyd scooped up the hot spring water sparingly.
Be careful not to spill even one drop.
It was evenly distributed near the entrance to the tunnel and along the passage.
Only then did a satisfied smile appear on Lloyd’s face.
“Whew, it’s done.”
Tunnel instead of a bottle trap.
Fish broth instead of chicken broth bait.
With this, everything is ready.
Local custom construction material that won’t melt or warp in Hell’s lava heat.
Thus, it is a material that will stably support the subgrade surface of the Hell Railway and prevent differential subsidence.
At the same time, the material to be supplied as railway rails and sleepers to be laid on the road bed.
To acquire them in bulk in one queue.
Now it’s time to hunt down the many lava centipedes that Satans who are mad at you will bring.
