The Player Returns After 10,000 Years Episode 272
The King’s Path (2)
-Kooung!
The Balrog stood up.
I looked down at the rain with burning eyes.
[No.]
A resolute voice that has never been heard before.
The Balrog chewed his lips and opened his mouth again.
[Metamorphosis is not allowed…]
Balrog.
[Not again!]
Kung!
The Balrog stamped his feet wildly. shit. The floor, unable to withstand the impact, cracked.
[Didn’t you promise not to do it again!!]
The atmosphere in the room instantly calmed down.
Echidna and Halkyon trembled.
Kang Woo narrowly opened his eyes. Are you disobeying orders? [ ….]
Silence fell.
The Balrog trembled slightly, clenching his fists.
[There must be another way.]
I’m going to do it because I don’t have one.
[Isn’t the situation that urgent?]
It’s not urgent. But it’s not even relaxing.
[You already have greater power than when you were in hell.]
The enemies have become that much stronger.
The Balrog tightly closed his eyes. […It’s dangerous.]
Maybe you don’t know that.
Kang Woo laughed. The Balrog stamped his feet wildly once more.
[Then why the hell! Why are you even trying to metamorphose!]
Balrog.
He opened his mouth with deep eyes.
A voice that sounds sad somewhere.
The emotions that were stored deep in the heart became language and flowed out.
You’ve lost too much
[…] I won’t lose anymore.
said calmly.
The Balrog clenched his fists with his face contorted.
Lilith approached him. Give up the balrog. You know very well how stubborn the Demon King is. […Are you okay?]
Ho ho ho. Lilith laughed deeply. A ghastly life bloomed in her eyes.
There’s no way you wouldn’t mind
[…]
The words that I spit out like chewing. I could see Lilith’s hands trembling slightly.
Her eyes are wet, as if shed tears if left alone.
The Balrog let out a deep sigh. [All right. When do you plan to do it?]
Right now.
I also told you to remove the horns for sweet seaweed. There was no reason to put it off until I decided to do it.
[The location is…] The place where we sparred before, right? let’s do it
there
[It’s dangerous there. Before… Where was the place where he had the Dean’s warehouse?]
The Grand Canyon?
–
[Yes. Let’s do it there.] Nope. It’s a bit annoying to have to go through the Hall of Guardians.
[Still, I prefer a safe place.]
Kang-woo nodded. okay. [Then I will prepare.]
The Balrog turned around.
I took Lilith and went around the room to get something.
rainfall.
Echidna came closer. Pull the hem of the dress. what is degeneration I’m curious too. Halkyon nodded furiously from the side.
Kang Woo replied with an embarrassed expression.
It’s a kind of water lily.
training?
huh. A training that allows you to increase your demonic control the fastest.
At the word training, Echidna’s trembling eyes calmed down.
she said with a twinkle in her eyes. Is it okay if I go see Kang Woo training? no. He shook his head firmly. Echidna’s body trembled.
He stroked her hair and spoke.
Seol-ah is lonely at home. Echidna and Halkyon go home today and stay with Seol-ah. … yea, I got it.
Echidna nodded her head, unable to hold on to the strange atmosphere any longer.
It was then.
[Why don’t we go together like this?]
….Balrog.
Kang Woo opened his eyes sharply.
The Balrog continued with a calm voice.
[Aren’t the little dragons and Halkions also the Demon King’s family now? You deserve to know.]
**
You deserve to know, but damn. Who do you think doesn’t know your intentions?
[Of course, I also want you to change your mind even now. But don’t you know that it’s not good to hide it even from the circle?] What’s wrong? It would be meaningless to go together anyway… [It is meaningless.]
The Balrog shook his head. [Little dragon is strong enough to use dragon language magic, and Halkion is actually stronger than me.] Are you going to come out with logic?
[Isn’t the Demon King trying to deal with unexpected variables as well?]
Kang Woo was speechless.
…X feet.
I hate to admit it, but the Balrog is right.
After metamorphosis, he
becomes extremely weak. It is right to take Echidna and Halkion with you to deal with any unexpected variables. [Besides, taking me alone in this situation is to mediate the discord between the family members.]
This statement is also correct. One of the most important things when managing subordinates is not to be biased towards one side of your emotions.
If Echidna and Halcyon are left here, of course they will feel a sense of relative deprivation from the Balrog.
Even if it is excessive to adjust the discord, at least the seeds will bloom.
[Do you want to see the king practice?]
Yes. I miss you!
I want to see you too.
[It is so.] Echidna and Halkyon nodded their heads.
Kang Woo shook his head as if he had a headache. … do whatever you want.
He turned around with a tired expression.
The Balrog smiled and said to Echidna and Halkyon.
[Then help prepare.] What should I prepare?
[I need a change of clothes, a large amount of water, and a towel to wipe myself]
……?
Echidna didn’t know why she needed something like that when training, but she nodded.
As soon as Halkyon, Echid and Balrog moved together, the preparations were over.
So let’s start right away.
Kang Woo activated the gate to the Hall of Protection.
The gate to the Grand Canyon was accessible through the Hall of Guardians. Something comes here very often
.
After passing through the gate, Kang Woo muttered as he looked at the wide-open canyon.
Since you can run wild in a place where there are not many people, I often use it for sparring or training.
As I walked slowly, Echidna followed behind me.
Kangwoo: I also practiced a lot. Now I can use 5 dragon spells. You can use more than Jackie Chan.
Like a child who wants to be praised, he said with a smirk.
Kang Woo smiled and stroked Echidna’s head.
good job. Oh come to think of it, it looks like you’ve grown taller again.
Hehe! Soon you will be able to gain as much weight as Seola. Uh… well.
But I asked Seol-ah how to gain weight and got scolded…
Don’t say such things in the future.
My kimchi stew will disappear again. Kang-woo moved his steps, asking Echidna to trust him.
Halkyon clung to the arm on the other side that Echidna was holding.
‘Why are you again?’
Ga Kang Woo. I am doing it too! Soo training! ‘Do not lie.’
Demons do not train. No, to be precise, even if you practice,
it doesn’t mean much.
Simple physical training was meaningless because their bodies were already excellent in specs to the point where they were close to the limit.
When Gangwoo looked at him with a bewildered expression, Halkyon flapped his wings.
Poetry Bride Class! I’m taking a bridal class! ‘She’s not a bride.’ get married! All I have to do now is get married!
‘Something remains between your legs. Kang Woo’s eyes trembled anxiously. [Small talk ends there.] The Balrog pulled the two of them by the backs. … What are you doing?
Halkyon opened his eyes sharply. A fierce life bloomed. I was talking to Kangwoo-nim about this at most….
Ugh. aww
grinded teeth
It flapped its wings nervously.
Don’t disturb the bar. I’m going to blow it up and throw it away.
I even pulled out my long fingernails to see if these were empty words.
The Balrog continued with a calm expression.
[The king is disturbed.]
When Kangwoo’s story came out, Halkion firmly shut his mouth. Chilly…. Biting my lip as if it was unfair. Kang Woo, who had been walking, turned his head and
looked around. I would like it here. […going a little deeper.]
Dig into a rock wall? That’s enough.
In the narrow canyon, not even a small creature could be seen, let alone a human presence.
After entering the small cave dug in the middle of the rock, Kang-woo took a deep breath.
then please
[Yes]
The Balrog stood in front of the entrance of the cave.
A bucket full of water and clean towels were piled on top of each other. What are you trying to do? […you’ll know when you see it.]
The Balrog continued.
[Our role is to ensure that no one touches the king until the ‘metamorphosis’ is over.]
So, are we escorting Kang-woo?
Echidna’s eyes sparkled. She, who was always protected by him,
showed great interest in the word escorting Kang-woo.
The Balrog nodded slowly.
[You can start.]
…Yes.
Kangwoo looked at Echidna and Halkion and tried to say something, but then sighed and nodded.
-Why? I, too, want to know more about you.
– I’ll sympathize with you.
-yes?
– If you listen, you will sympathize.
The conversation I had with Seolah Han flashed through my head.
I clicked my tongue Fuck.
He cursed lightly and began to take off the clothes he was wearing. Hehe! Hehe! Huh Huh Up! Buy photos! I need to take a picture!
The audience is noisy. After taking off all of them leaving only one pair of panties, Kang-woo roughly threw them into a corner.
‘What kind of shame play is this?
I saw two women looking at me with fierce eyes.
I laughed.
then.’
I closed my eyes.
caused a stir caused a stir caused a stir
And
cool!
The body bent like a bow.
My head is dizzy. eyesight flickers Magi, who has been raised to the limit, starts to run wild. ‘ocean.’
I could see the black sea, so vast that I couldn’t see the end of it.
Three doors were blocking the huge sea.
Go to the place where the
Manmajeon gate is.
Slightly twist
the door open.
-Koo-gu-gu-gu-goo!!
rainfall…?
The entire canyon vibrated. Kang Woo bit his lip. The flesh of his lips was torn away by his teeth.
The demonic energy that had flowed like an arrogant river now turned into a torrent and rushed through the body.
and. Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!! He vomited black blood.
A maddening, far-off pain dominated his entire body.
– Wood Deuk! Awesome!
Bones twisted. Dislocated and shattered bones protruded through the skin.
Blood vessels were tangled and muscles were torn and scattered.
A terrifying amount of blood poured out of his body like a fountain.
ah ah
rattle. My body trembles.
He stretched out his hand as if to grab hold of the air. The fingers stretched forward were twisted from the tips.
The skin cracked and fell off.
Blood vessels and tendons protruded.
The skin on the whole body turned inside out as if shedding skin. Aaaaaaaaaaaaa!! Pain like madness rages. He screamed and twisted his body ugly.
‘I have to control it.’
Magi running amok all over the body. I intentionally opened the door to the Manmajeon slightly.
Intentionally create a situation where you have to go one step further than your current limit.
If you don’t cross this limit, you will die if you don’t control this rampaging demon
. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
My body jumped up as if having a seizure. He
trembles his limbs with his tongue sticking out long
.
Feces flowed and wet the floor.
All of the teeth that had been pulled out came out with vomit. What would happen
if you put a person in a giant microwave oven and
turn it on?
His body was torn apart and blood spurted out.
Mr. hair.
sick.
sick. sick. sick. Except for the thought of pain, all thoughts cease.
I felt nothing but pain, as if the whole world was made of pain.
I crawled obscenely across the floor to escape the pain. OMG.
Tears flowed. Consciousness flashed black. Things distorted before my eyes.
Balrog’s face, Echidna’s face, and Halkyon’s face are crushed as if they were mixed with paint.
And
**
there is only pain left in the world. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!
He groaned and twisted his whole body. The moment my consciousness flickered, a flash of light
flashed through my mind.
To survive in order to live, he instinctively controlled his demonic spirit.
time of selflessness.
I started to control the demon that was rampaging like a torrent.
As if unraveling a complex tangle of threads, he suppressed the demonia little by little.
step by step.
Forward

There is rainfall!!! Kang Woo!! The two women, Echidna and Halkyon, approached Kang-woo with bluish expressions.
[Stop.]
The Balrog interrupted. you are you…! Do you still say that when you look at me?!
Halkyon pulled out his nails, revealing his teeth.
Echidna shuddered and sat down.
[If you touch it now, the king will die.]
At the Balrog’s words, Halkion stopped moving.
what what What is this?
It is too foreign to call it training.
Even self-injury wouldn’t be this much. This is… you mean metamorphosis?
The Balrog nodded calmly. [Forcibly awakening selflessness by causing demonic energy to run out of control. That’s the way to burn
.]
That’s dangerous…
[It’s the same as turning the body inside out. Of course not dangerous. Worst case scenario, you may end up with soup. Even if they don’t die, they have to go through extreme pain that living things can feel.]
Why, why so much… [Didn’t the King himself say that?]
The Balrog smiled bitterly. [To not lose any more.]
…….
Turned around.
I could see Kang Woo crawling on the ground.
Before I could go far, I screamed and passed out.
[Come to think of it, you guys don’t know what kind of path the demon king walked in hell.]
[It was neither the royal road nor the royal road.]
The Balrog approached Kang-woo, who fell to the ground and passed out.
I hugged the body of the fainting Kang-woo. A mixture of black blood and excrement stretched along the spot he had crawled on.
[That way.] The balrog picked up a bowl of water and sprinkled it on Kang-woo.
The blood and excrement washed from the body flowed along the crawling tracks. [That ugly, dirty, miserable road of filth.]
The place washed away by the water looked like a ‘road’.
[This is the path the king has walked.]
A suffocating silence fell.
Balrock…
At that time, Kang-woo, who had passed out in the arms of the balrog, struggled to open his eyes.
[Please rest, Demon King.] Ah ah.
Gangwoo’s hand, which was shaking uneasy as if grabbing something, grabbed the balrog’s shoulder
.
As if desperately squeezing out all his remaining strength, he opened his mouth.
As if I had to say this,
they shriveled as fuck… cool! [Demon Lord! Are you saying your body hurts like it’s shrinking?!] No, your foal shrinks…
[I know what you’re trying to say. As much as the demon king hurts… my heart hurts too.]
You bastard… that’s not… the horse… the fuck… shriveled up… the path of filth… what a dog X….
Kang Woo shuddered.
[Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.]
He poured his vomit at the balrog’s face.
Consciousness flashed black.
