Episode 451. Pandemonium War (1)
Soft yellow feathers.
Red eyes like Ruby.
If you choose the most similar appearance, the phoenix will come to mind.
“Miyooo!”
The ancient bell, which was large enough to fit comfortably in the chest, tilted its head.
It is looking at the being that first became its owner after hatching.
“Damn it, it’s already…!”
Guntafer swears and throws himself.
If you kill them before a proper rapport or contract is established. Thinking that there are still opportunities.
however.
“Your opponent is me. You horned bastard.”
As if waiting, Beriel’s spear shot like lightning.
Kwak Kwa Kwak!
Black spear Kishan pierced Guntaper’s black armor.
As if that wasn’t enough, he blew down the trees on the other side.
“Keuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…”
I’m going to go to the middle of the day.
The pierced part instantly returned to its original form.
“You don’t have to use the dragon to ask me to kill you. Beriel… Your turn is right next.”
“Ohhh. That’s interesting. Don’t just talk about it and do something called practice. Amon, stop harassing our apostle.”
“…So you’re saying let’s see the real end here.”
“Because it’s about time to put an end to the nasty bad relationship.”
Chunk!
Suk…
Guntafer and Beriel faced each other head on.
The war between the two demon kings who become the pillars of the demon realm.
A fight that ends only when one of them dies has begun.
It was Beriel who took the lead.
Pew!
Red spheres over 5 meters in diameter rained down from the sky.
Each one was a sphere with enough magic power to blow away a small hill.
For a moment, Guntafer’s ax was covered with black energy.
From below…
…above.
A space-cutting slash cut through the spheres.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
Countless lights flickered.
As expected…
As it was a clash between the gods, the battle itself far exceeded common sense.
But even between the heavens, there is a law.
Jinhyeok carefully examined the situation.
‘As expected, Beriel is at a disadvantage.’
There was already a difference of more than five times in the base of support, but as Guntaper acquired the god of demons, the gap widened even more.
If it wasn’t for the experience worn out countless times and the authority as a demon king, the game would have been decided right away.
“Miyo!”
“Yes, of course you know.”
Jinhyeok stroked the head of the yellow phoenix.
Like the first time I met a sweet potato, my heart was touched for some reason.
I got it through all sorts of hardships…
Of course, I’m thinking of giving it a name that suits it.
From the first time I saw it, one name stuck in my head.
“Fried.”
It is an affectionate name that reminds me of a yellow whole chicken.
It’s easy to remember, and I’ve never seen anyone who hates it.
Above all, the appearance of red seasoning sauce on top of yellow fries went very well with fried foods.
“How is it, do you like it too?”
“Mi, Miyo?”
Freyde shook his head from side to side violently.
That probably means it’s good.
No, I mean it’s definitely good.
“Okay. Your name is Fried.”
Jinhyuk smiled brightly.
“Miyooooooo!!!???”
* * *
Boom! Quaang! Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwa Kwam!
A black wind raging without blinking.
“Kyahahaha!”
Behemoth, soaked in madness, swung his greatsword madly.
“mosquito!”
The sweet potato took advantage of the air battle and flung its body here and there.
fluttering little wings.
Because it accelerated with the wind as much as possible, even a Behemoth could not easily give it a direct hit.
Once, twice…
As the carelessness continued, Behemoth went up with a lot of medicine.
I can’t help but get annoyed because I can’t get caught.
“It’s not the body… I tried to play with you moderately. Even if I don’t know anything else, you’ll hold on tight.”
[Behemoth activates Lv?? ‘Storm Step’!]
A skill that creates a storm around it as soon as it walks.
Cuckoo Cuckoo!
Gusts and typhoons began to sweep the land.
“Mo, Mogi?”
The sweet potato lost its balance and was caught in the tornado.
The sweet potato’s eyes spun around at the high-speed rotating tornado.
“Mosquito!”
“Now I’ve caught the flirtatious thing. This is the end of the tag game. It’s a little reptile.”
A red-edged greatsword.
It was a holy relic specially created to slaughter the same ancient species.
If you are attacked in a situation where you can’t even balance properly, you will have no choice but to be attacked.
Check mate with this.
But just then
Wheein!
A fever that has never been seen before has been added.
[Fried activates Lv1 ‘Crispy Scorching Wind’!]
“Miyoooo!”
A blazing wind blew over the Behemoth.
It’s a strange heat that I’ve never encountered before.
“Kuaa!”
Behemoth widened the distance in terrible agony.
I don’t know where the attack came from.
Above all, it would be difficult to inflict a single wound on one’s own skin with a normal fire-type attack…
Unless it was a high-level deity or an ancient species of the same kind…
His eyes widened to the side.
Then there.
There stood Go-Tae-jong and Jin-hyeok, who had yellow fur.
Now everything is back and forth.
“In the end… did you succeed in hatching the egg?”
“I’m quite close with the ancient species. Because I’m a family person, they follow me well. Isn’t that Fried?”
“Me…yoooo…”
Fried bowed his head.
“Looking at it, it seems like they don’t like the name right? Isn’t that the dragon called Sweet Potato? If I were the one who signed the contract, I would have killed you first.”
That… that that. Look at the careless saying that it is a pierced mouth.
It makes a difference between us.
“Isn’t that right, Kuma? Tell me how good I am to you guys.”
Jinhyeok turned to sweet potato and asked for consent.
However, the sweet potato was busy patting the back of the newly arrived fried chicken.
“Mosquito mosquitoes.”
“Miyooooo…”
I looked at the sweet potato with fried eyes.
Whatever suits you. While asking if there is a nice name and a happy future.
Shaking my head.
Sweet Potato silently shook his head.
He seemed to know all the pain and sorrow he was experiencing.
And even the fact that you have to live with resignation to all of that… everything.
It was included in the gutter.
* * *
‘Damn it. Why do things get more and more complicated like this?’
Guntaper looked at the situation on the Behemoth side and eventually showed his nervousness.
This is because the Behemoth has been tied up by the newly awakened ancient species.
There is no certainty that he will wipe out his opponent right away.
Now the situation itself felt uncomfortable.
‘If we keep fighting, the odds of winning might be halved.
With only one corps under his direct control, there was no reason to overdo it.
If they mobilized even the main unit in the territory to fight once again, there would be no such thing as a tight battle.
The worry didn’t last long.
“Everyone, step back.”
Guntafer ordered a retreat.
“Ha, my lord…?”
“A little more and we can see the end!”
The demons under his direct control shouted in surprise.
“I’m just getting hot now, what are you talking about!”
Behemoth was also dissatisfied.
I didn’t want to blow up the chance to bump into it to my heart’s content.
But Guntafer had already made up his mind.
“Consider yourself fortunate that your life has been extended. Human.”
“If the person on the run said that, it seemed like there was no more… Well, if you’re going to roll up your tail, I won’t chase you on purpose.”
“…Those words. I will definitely make you regret it.”
Guntafer bit his molar, but did not respond further.
With that, a comma was put in the fierce battle.
“Retreat to the country territory!”
“This is the order of the Demon King. Stop fighting. Stop fighting!”
The higher-ranking demons were in charge of the rear, quickly capturing the soldiers and escaping from the battlefield.
“Whoever wants…”
“It’s not you guys who decide the end!”
Some of the heavenly horses tried to chase them, but they didn’t make much of a difference.
Because they maintained their formation so perfectly, it was not easy to break through. And now.
In Beriel’s temporary residence, a modest place was prepared for the members of the new temporary alliance.
“Hmm. I don’t wear much, but it costs a lot.”
Beriel, sitting at the table, trembled.
Really…
not out of courtesy, literally not much.
A soup made with mandragora that is out of breath with age.
A dish of dried meat that you don’t even want to know what kind of creature it was made from.
Even thorny fruits and ice cream.
If it had been another demon lord instead of Beriel, it would have seemed nothing but an intention to assassinate him.
“It’s an insult to Jim… no, to the cooking.”
Ellis grabbed the fork.
“I miss Byeokgokdan…”
The Beer Mount, who represented the Heavenly Demons, also made a confused expression.
“Mooogi!”
“Miyo!”
Sweet potatoes and fries were struggling to escape from the table.
Only then can it become a proper meal.
I can’t help it.
Because I couldn’t force him to eat this poison.
Jinhyuk, who slipped the tableware, opened his mouth.
“I guess the situation in Yeongji is worse than I thought? It seems like all the castles are collapsing…”
Patter.
At the same time, one side of the ceiling collapsed.
The dimly lit candles swayed faintly here and there.
“Keukkeuheum! It’s just that the situation is such that we can’t afford it. But if this war ends well, we’ll be able to live a rich life after that… Until then, I ask for your understanding.”
“No… I’m not saying there’s any particular complaint…”
Still, I just feel sorry for his name as the Demon King.
When I first met him, he was quite confident and aloof.
“Rather than that, what do you plan to do in the future? Of course, I thought that the battle would come to an end, but didn’t you suddenly accept the opponent’s offer and give me an excuse to run away?”
Beermount frowned.
Since Jinhyeok was so willing to let go of his opponent, I thought there was a countermeasure prepared.
If you look inside, aren’t there only empty demon kings and crumbling bases?
Even saying that the horse was a corps commander, there were not even plausible soldiers in the manor.
On the other hand, the opponent seemed to have much more to show if given the time.
“I understand. But, if we continued to fight, it would have been difficult for us. Not only Guntaper, but other demon lords also started to notice.”
“Does this mean that new variables may intervene?”
“That’s what it means.”
“But isn’t that a variable that won’t change in the future? From my point of view, it only seems like I gave them more time to prepare.”
“That’s not wrong, but it’s the same for this side that I bought time.
” …It’s probably not Guntafer’s side.
“Really, what do you think he’s doing now?”
A calm and deep smile formed on Jinhyeok’s lips.
