Admission is nothing (272)
Lesson 53. Equivalent Exchange – 4
“It was a gateway that I had to pass through to become a strong person. It was also the minimum condition that the demon king demanded of me as the heir to the demon castle… I passed it thanks to you.”
Back on the ship, Shati said so while discussing the magical powers she had acquired.
The successor to the demon king.
Ban Yoo-won questioned her while feeling a sense of authentic fantasy that was different from what he had experienced so far.
“Then, are you saying that the Demon Castle is full of people who use magical powers like you just now?”
“No, not that. The reason why I got the magic of extinction was that it barely happened due to the combination of various miraculous factors with the help of Yuwon…” “
Forbidden by our Yuwon.”
Shati smirked at Mira, who fired a knife-like gaze and issued a name ban.
“Destructive magic is what I, who obtained this, say, but it is called the highest level of magic.”
“It’s the highest level of horsepower.”
“It’s a little self-praise, but.”
It is never self-praise.
As for magic, Selon, who is more knowledgeable than anyone else in this room, had just said the same thing.
“There is only a legend that the first demon king dealt with annihilation magic, and now no one in Diavolo handles it. So, I was surprised when I first saw the vice-chancellor handle it at the academy. No one would have known that I, a mutant of the Evil One, would restore the legend with the help of the outsider, the Planning Manager.”
After all, it was the same power that Zenon handled.
It is the magical power of extinction… In a sense, it is the magical power that is the antipode of one’s own power that annihilates the concept of all things.
He asked her, etching the name firmly in his mind.
“Anyway, if that’s not a condition, what is a condition?”
“Did I mention that all Evil Ones deal with blood magic? Blood magic is evil magic, but it’s a higher order magic that’s much more powerful than simple magic anyway. The Demon King told me, who had not been able to handle blood magic ever since I was born, to obtain magic power strong enough to replace it.”
“Aha, higher level magic.”
A spacecraft that quickly advances through the empty space where everything has disappeared and is approaching Diavolo.
The Demon King must have been watching this, but there was no movement on the planet anymore, as if he was waiting for them to come.
The Imperium of Man… was equally quiet, probably frightened by the swift flight of the elite fleet.
Looking at the red star that was getting closer and closer, Shati muttered quietly.
“To be honest, I didn’t know that the demon king and the demon castle were thick, and I accepted Union’s call because I wanted to live freely. The Demon King didn’t like that either.”
“That’s a pattern I’ve heard of somewhere…”
“Kyaha There are quite a few dimensions that don’t trust Union. This tends to be the case in dimensions that have no intention of interacting with the outside world or in dimensions that have suffered a lot from the outside world.”
Diavolo doesn’t even ask which one.
Despite the high dimension level, the level of civilization that falls behind.
The ruler Demon King, who controls more than half of Diavolo, must have a reluctance to connect with the external dimension itself.
“But somehow I got close to Mira and ended up helping her. The time has come when collective force is needed. And since I just got the power to shout at him… I’ve never asked for anything from the demon king in my life, but this time I have to get my rights as the successor.”
“Is that for me?”
“Kyahahaha I was impressed! right!”
“It really bothers me.”
Ban Yu-Won stared sideways at Shati, who was aiming for a gap and clinging to Meera, blankly recalling her words.
“The condition for becoming a strong person is higher magic power…”
I thought it was quite plausible.
Whether it’s high-level martial arts or magic, you need an appropriate amount of magic (inner power) to use it, and unless you’re born with it, it’s extremely difficult to acquire.
Celon’s holy light magic, which becomes the law by magic power itself, is representative.
Holy light was originally a magical power that was only allowed to her, and Yumina was able to handle it because she signed a contract with her.
In the academy, even the seemingly omnipotent president couldn’t handle the holy light himself, and tried to use Celon and Yumina instead, suggesting the firm uniqueness of higher magic.
‘I knew it from the start, but the more these facts are revealed, the more I realize how absurd the martial art that Yeon taught me is.’
That would be the case, because the purpose of Hyeonsingong is to eventually change one’s body through training and create magic that matches it.
Maybe the demon king said it to catch the daughter he didn’t like, but it’s not entirely wrong to say that you need to acquire a higher level of magic to become a strong man.
Ban Yoo-won burst into tears as he watched Dok-go-yeon.
“Teacher’s grace knows no bounds…”
“Are you going to say something strange again? Don’t look at me like that! Stop pretending to cry!”
How could she not know that the way she turned her head away in disgust made me want to tease her even more because it was so cute?
No, I don’t know, so maybe it’s cuter?
It’s just… I’ve said it this far, but the existence of Banyuwon denied the uniqueness of such high-level magical power from the front.
Isn’t it the beginning of the energy that can become anything from the energy he completed through the Hyeonsingong right now?
Even though he didn’t make a contract with Celon, he managed to get the holy light, and he learned photon magic that can only be learned by dealing with light and dark magic at the same time.
The crimson flame, which has now been handled quite fully, can also be seen as an inherent magic power allowed only to Prominence before it is an authority, and there is also a divine wind that was stolen from the Constellation earlier.
The power to conceptualize all things and to interpret, accept, and implement them through language.
It is the power to fit the world to you, not to fit yourself to the world.
If so, what else should we call it, other than calling it God?
Now, with the red star approaching right in front of his eyes, Ban Yu-won thought of the tower again.
Why did the ancestors build the tower?
Was it… really to reach God?
“master…?”
Hearing the voice, he turned his head to find Ruchel looking at him with a worried expression.
Ban Yu-won held her hand and shook her head.
“It’s nothing, Rachel.”
“But just now Master–”
[Entering the atmosphere!]
Lilith’s voice, whose tension was obviously strange when entering and breaking through the atmosphere, drowned out Ruchel’s worried voice.
[Are you going to the place called the Devil Castle?]
“Perhaps they are waiting. Even if I see the annihilation power, I will not neglect it.”
As the spacecraft, which had entered Diavolo’s sky in an instant, was heading towards the Pandemonium following the path Shati had guided, the gaze of vigilant hatred and interest flying from all over the ground harassed the party.
That alone was enough to guess the power of this world.
“Shati-senpai, it’s good that you grew up safely in a demonic world like this.”
“Because it is such a demonic realm, it is this big. Kyaha….”
Shati’s face hardened, probably because she was about to meet the demon king.
Mira sighed and poked her cheek.
“Negotiations haven’t even started yet. Relax.”
“It’s not a negotiation, it’s a demand. I don’t even have a conversation with him.”
“If you were going to finish your business with just one word, you wouldn’t have brought Rebellion with you.”
As Mira pricked the sore spot, Shati pursed her lips.
“That’s what you mean, you mean… Are you mad at me for pampering your boyfriend? Jung Then, with regard to reasonable compensation, I made a close agreement with the Planning Manager alone…”
“Shati really want to die?”
The moment Mira was about to draw her weapon and lift it up, the battleship that was cutting through the air stopped shaking in the air as if something had caught on something.
Lilith, who tried to do something about it for a while, gave up and muttered.
[Is it a barrier?]
“I’m talking about walking from here. Let’s land.”
It’s been a while since I entered the Demon Realm ruled by the Demon King.
The huge demonic castle barely entered the field of vision, but it was already a barrier, making me realize the greatness of this dimension anew.
After landing, Banyuwon, who stored the spacecraft in the inventory, trembled as he realized that this place was a space composed of blood magic in the atmosphere that seemed to be sticky somewhere.
“There’s never been anything like this in the dimensions I’ve been to for special activities.”
“Actually, those places made no sense. Most of the starting point of activities is the royal palace, but there is no barrier in the sky. They are in a hurry to make a living, so even the most basic defense measures have not been established.”
Dokgoyeon’s eyes widened as Asha spoke with a wry smile.
It seemed that Moorim had no barriers like that.
And she was never the type to put up with humiliation.
“evil! Why do you hit me!”
“Not knowing why is why you are right now.”
“It’s too embarrassing…!”
Ban Yu-won secretly moved away from Asha and looked at the demon castle, which was still far away.
I remember that Shati said that the castle had been destroyed in half, but surprisingly, traces of it remained in the castle.
A huge tower that was originally installed in the west, and was not sure if it was a watchtower or a bell tower, was bent in the middle――a black flame was still burning there.
If you look at that, you might misunderstand that the castle is being attacked in real time, but that’s not the case.
Because Ban Yu-Won could faintly feel the traces of Shati there.
“Is that the power of a primeval demon?”
“After he was unsummoned, the demon king searched all over the demon world with the intention of finding him and commanding him, but he couldn’t find it. Now, it is presented as one of the strongest evidence that there is a Pandemonium in the S-class dimension.”
It’s also the reason he doesn’t completely give up on me, Shati added.
Even though he couldn’t control it, if he had the ability to summon monsters that other Evil Ones couldn’t summon, then even the demon king would have thought about how to deal with him.
“Then let’s go. I don’t know if I’ll try to overpower him if I meet him, but I’m going to face him head-on anyway, so don’t be overly scared.”
After earnestly declaring, Shati led the group.
Even after getting off the spaceship, the barrier that had been pressing the party mysteriously seemed to lose its power as Shati started to lead the group forward.
―The half-
yuwon read countless eyes watching their movements from a distance that could not be confirmed with the naked eye.
Even though she had been out of the sphere of influence of the human empire for a long time, she could see that Shati never grew up comfortably, even as the daughter of the Demon King, since the gazes she gave them were mixed with obvious murderous intentions.
“ah.”
At that moment, Shati sighed.
Ban Yu-won, who looked where her gaze was heading, saw a handsome boy walking slowly towards them, and his body stiffened for a moment.
Even if you don’t have eyes to read everything, there is no way you won’t be able to recognize the existence that puts terrible pressure on the whole area just by revealing itself.
‘What are you so incredibly strong about? I can’t believe the author is the demon king…!’
Yeah, I thought it was about time to get out of here.
Isn’t there a lot of cases where a girl or boy who looks like they’re not dangerous at all in the original manga actually conforms to the strongest person in the world!
Perhaps he noticed what he was thinking. The boy glanced at Banyuwon with cold eyes, then looked at Shati… and smiled brightly, surprisingly.
“sister! Long time no see!”
Eh.
wasn’t it?
Isn’t it strange that you’re the age that suits your appearance when you show up in such a mood?
“Cron.”
Seeing that Shati also made a complicated expression and called the other person’s name, it seemed that she was really a younger sister.
As Banyuwon looked at the reunion of siblings with a feeling of being beaten, a boy called Crone by Shati approached step by step, closing the gap, and finally got down on one knee in front of Shati.
“His Majesty recognized my sister as the legitimate successor to the empire and bestowed the royal scepter on her.”
With those words, a long staff, all black, was placed on both hands that she extended with those words, at the end of which was studded with vertically-striped beads like the eyes of a lizard.
King’s scepter An object commonly known as part of Regalia, which symbolizes kingship.
However, Ban Yu-won knew well that it was not just a simple symbol.
All the terrible pressure he felt in the boy stemmed from that.
Again, it was absurd.
If you go to the A-level dimension, does the artifact that symbolizes the ruler create such a sense of crisis?
When I first saw Asha holding the holy sword, I wondered why such a treasure was in the D-class dimension, but that wasn’t the case.
Compared to the true treasures of the upper dimension, the holy sword in the early days was medicine.
“Ha, do you really have to do this? That bastard won’t just give this away.”
“Of course, sister. The humans who were frightened by the dignified magic that my sister showed off moved the legion in the border area. You said that if you wipe out all of them without troop support and return, you will receive the Royal Scepter and formally take over the Black Horse Corps.”
“Kyaha! Reading the inside casually is the same. Yes, it happened because of me, so I’m asking you to sort it out. Are you that watcher? I’ll also observe how I can’t get the mana of extinction.”
“Please forgive the Emperor Wu who cannot refuse Your Majesty’s orders.”
“under.”
Shati snorted and picked up the royal scepter.
Surprisingly, at that moment, the eyes inside the beads that decorated the end of the hall opened and emitted dark gray magic.
At the same time, the pressure applied to the area seemed to increase, and the next moment, Shati took care of it all.
It looks overwhelmingly stronger than when it was held by a boy called Cron.
It must have been quite humiliating, but the boy only clapped his eyes and clapped.
“As expected… Sister! I had no doubts that my sister would bring about Diavolo’s second coming!”
“It’s noisy, just follow me quietly.”
Shati sighed and turned around, looked around at the party, said kyaha, and changed her expression and smiled.
“It just happened like this.”
“It’s a much better result than I thought. I thought I’d fight the devil.”
Mi-ra replied cynically and looked at Ban Yu-won, so he guessed the meaning and nodded without hesitation.
“We’re leaving right away.”
