The Player Returns After 10,000 Years Episode 241
Defeated Soldier (2)
‘Belphegor, wearing a sloth, stood up.
A suffocating demonic energy that was different from when he was sitting radiated from his body.
The balrog’s expression hardened.
‘This is the real beginning.
He took a pose with his fists blazing with dark red flames.
It was a fluke that I was able to deal with Belphegor until now.
It was a different story if he had decided to go all out.
[Now, let’s see if you’re strong enough to dare say that.]
Belphegor slowly raised his hand. An intangible blade was created.
The number itself is different from before.
Over a thousand blades. Blades twisting the flow of time poured down like rain. – Deed Deed Deed!! The ground touched by the blade was ripped off. It is bizarre that the earth is torn apart because the flow of time is twisted, but if you think about it a little, it is not so.
Earth rotates. Moving without rest
| The movement of the part touched by the ‘power of stopping’
is infinitely slow, so distortion occurs.
‘If that sword touches the body.’
Even a balrog with barding could not avoid fatal wounds.
sprinkled with magic I closed my eyes.
He felt the flow of magic change and avoided the blade.
– Kwajik!
[Great.]
But no matter how well you know and avoid it, is it possible to avoid all of the thousands of blades?
The skin twisted when touched by the intangible sword.
[Die Balrog.]
Belphegor spread his arms. The power of the time-warping power unfolded like a curtain.
Kwadeuk. Quadruped!
The earth turned over. The land swept away by the landslide twisted and created a huge shock.
The Balrog bit his lip, avoiding the pouring blades. ‘As expected, this is because he is a grand duke.’
He had seen countless demons with powers so far, but they were different.
The Balrog kicked his foot.
If it stops moving even for a second, it will be swallowed whole by the power of stopping.
end at that moment. The whole body gets caught up in the time gap and bursts to death.
The Balrog continued to move and looked at Belphegor.
There is a way.
The power to stop is not absolute.
As much as it is a power with fraudulent power, there are also many limitations.
It cannot be used outside the range of sight and
is ‘slow.
It will be the most fatal problem. If you move even a little faster, it is not difficult to evade the power of stop itself.
Making thousands of intangible swords and pouring them out was also to cover the slowness.
-thud! Koo Goo Goo Goong!!
The ground that had been touched by the intangible sword for hundreds of meters exploded.
The Balrog evaded the attack by moving his body without rest.
and ‘Now!’
Belphegor showed an opening.
He cannot move while using the power of stasis.
A great opportunity to strike back.
-Kooung! Lower your body and kick your feet as if bouncing. An intangible blade grazes my body.
The skin splits open and the muscles tear. Ignoring the attack, I clenched my fist. Magi gathered together and covered their fists.
As if wearing a gauntlet, black demonic armor was created.
‘At the perfect timing.
The attack had to succeed. The Balrog’s body, which had exceeded the speed of sound, was fired at Belphegor like a cannonball.
He swung his barded fist. The target is Belphegor’s head.
I felt my fist touch the power that protected Belphegor’s body.
There was no strength in the arm for a moment.
‘here.’
The Balrog’s eyes shone sharply.
Right at this very moment when the power of stopping is touched. The black demonic energy that
exploded the barding covering the fist spreads out in a circle, blocking Belphegor’s vision.
The range of the Power of Stop is the range of Belphegor’s sight. At the moment it touches the power,
if it explodes the demonic energy and blocks the sight, the attack can be successful.
– Wooddeuk!
‘done!’
There was a feeling in the fist.
The balrog’s eyes shone.
However
, [Aha, it must have been a trick like that.]
Belphegor let out a fishy sneer. The pure white armor covering his entire body opened.
Like a spider spreading its folded legs wide. Like a predator opening its mouth.
The armor spread in all directions and wrapped around the arm of the balrog.
And
-wood deude deudeuk!!
[Keuugh!!]
The arm was pulled out.
Black blood spurted like a fountain along the cross section of the arm that had been ripped off from the elbow.
Belphegor clicked his tongue and crossed his arms leisurely.
[Tear and kill.]
ordered someone.
It wasn’t long before I knew who the target was.
– Cards! Get a card!
The white armor that covered his body changed its shape.
Eight arms were made. A ghastly grasp that resembles a skeleton’s hand
.
The hand holding the balrog’s body pulled him in all directions.
[Hiahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh man’s
pain came out of Balok’s mouth.
Kwadeuk. A crack ran through the barding that protected his body. Inferno, ‘laziness. The function of that transcendent weapon was simpler than expected.
It does not bring overwhelming destruction nor has a special function.
‘Sloth’s ability is to do the owner’s desired action instead of possible.
If you don’t want to move on your own two feet, if you want to protect yourself with a wheeled chair,
if you want to kill enemies with armor, you can turn into a weapon and move on your own.
‘While the sloth moves, the proprietor does not have to do anything.
[Kuuuuuu!!]
Eight arms pulling him from all sides. A terrible pressure pulled him down.
Simple but not weak.
Sloth was an infernal weapon that could perfectly compensate for Belphegor’s weakness of not being able to move while using the power of stasis, and at the same time, it was a weapon with so much power that even a balrog could crush it with force
. – Wow! Wood deok! bones are out of alignment The skin was torn and black blood gushed out.
The balrog’s eyes were bloodshot and the muscles in his body swelled up.
But I couldn’t escape the power of ‘laziness’.
Belphegor laughed bitterly.
[joy. After all, that’s all.]
Tsk tsk. He clicked his tongue and shook his head.
[Did you really think you could defeat the Archduke?]
A ridiculous thought. He even absorbed the ‘source of demon’ and became stronger than before.
Not even the demon king, but his family couldn’t deal with him.
Belphegor looked at the balrog as if he was pathetic, and soon his eyes lit up.
[Oh, come to think of it, it would be more effective to use you instead of Sihun Kim.]
[Effective?]
[Invite the demon king to ‘there’.]
Belphegor giggled. The Balrog laughed. I don’t know what they’re planning, but it’s meaningless.
[Does such a hostage situation work for him?]
[It does. Did you forget? Why did the demon king start the Thousand Year War?]
[
….]
[Kihihi. He’s a madman, but he’s covering his wealth in
a dirty way. Oh, is it because he’s crazy? Anyway, if you’re a hostage, even the Demon King won’t be able to move.]
Belphegor smiled broadly.
If you take the Balrog hostage, the success rate of the ‘plan’ increases dramatically. The demon king can kill the monster. [Then… before bringing it in front of the demon king, let’s pull out some limbs.]
– Wooded!!
[Keugh!!! Keu!!]
[Hahahaha!! I’ll be able to see
the owner die right in front of my eyes once again !]
A scream flowed from the Balrog’s mouth. The ‘sluggish grip’ that pulls arms and legs from all sides.
‘If it’s like this.
—
The Balrog bit his lip in terrible pain. ‘maybe.
His eyes sunk deeply.
I imagined the battle with Belphegor. A chilling fear ran down his spine.
‘I will be defeated.’
There is no doubt about it. The Archduke is a different being from ordinary demons.
No matter how hard you try, no matter how much you struggle.
It was impossible for an ordinary demon to defeat the Archduke.
‘but.’
If that was an easy thing to do, since the birth of the Nine Heavens Hell, the ‘grand duke’s throne’
has never changed.
A grand duke is born as a grand duke.
Absolute and born as a ruler.
So far, only two beings have broken that frame. ‘Baal and the Demon King.
In the long history of Nine Heavens Hell, there were only two demons who broke the frame.
‘No.’
The Balrog laughed.
He clenched his fists and raised the demonic energy of his whole body.
it’s only
‘I already beat two of them.
The chances are not zero. Archduke is not invincible.
they are defeated
No matter how arrogantly he speaks, no matter how arrogantly he maintains his form.
‘The Demon King has won. Rainfall beat them. Of course, it wasn’t without defeat. No, there were too many defeats to count.
Many of his men died. Among them, there were many subordinates whom the Demon King really cherished.
all haphazardly.
dead.
-Balrog…
The memories of the past came to mind. It was a time when I was with Kang Woo and quite a long time had passed.
The appearance of Kang-woo, who has the same eyes as a dead corpse, just like himself when he first met him.
– I’m tired now. The words he uttered as he sobbed as he sat down on top of countless corpses.
remember that time
There were countless despair, frustration, failure, and heartbreak.
but.
Even so.
Even in a situation where the enormous power difference was overturned and the worst and the worst overlapped.
he got up moved forward
And
won.
‘then.’
You will be able to overcome yourself. No, I had to overcome it from the position of serving the demon lord.
You have to make the impossible possible.
If you can’t, you can’t serve him. Can’t walk standing side by side
The burden cannot be lifted off his shoulders.
-Don’t be fooled, I don’t need your help.
Perhaps he would say that if he saw himself now. Why didn’t
you
ask for help?
In fact, asking for help is simple. There is a communication device to be used in case of emergency.
If you call him, he will arrive here in the blink of an eye under any circumstances.
And
he’ll try to carry it alone again.’ He will walk alone, carrying everything on his back.
As always,
to rise to a far higher place .
As has been repeated countless times over the past thousand years.
Forward forward
[I’m fed up.]
[What?]
[I’m fed up with not being able to protect my master.]
The Balrog grinned.
-Deud Dede Deuk!!
A crashing and tearing sound rang out. It wasn’t the balrog’s limbs that were ripped off.
[What…?]
The eight-part ‘slotte’s grip began to crack and shatter.
-Kooung! The Balrog’s huge body descended to the floor. Black magic covered his entire body. Black armor that covers the entire body, reminiscent of a Western knight.
The bat’s wings sprouted from behind fluttered.
The Balrog’s eyes opened.
The pupils that can be seen through the helm of the full plate are yellow.
A black pupil torn horizontally.
Goat’s eyes are the same as those of his owner, Kang Woo.
[Now.]
The memory of drinking with Kang Woo came to mind.
Then a smile formed on his lips.
he looked happy It was a smile I hadn’t seen in hell.
‘already.’
Failed once.
Couldn’t protect the owner.
there won’t be a second time [I will protect.] My king.
