Episode 461. Dawn at last
What’s so shiny… … ?
System messages cluttering your view.
Notification of a drastic increase in the mastery of the understanding of darkness and infant independence. And besides the message announcing the runaway, a considerable amount of messages came to mind.
But there is no bird to look away.
There is Paimon in front of you.
Looking at Behemoth’s mouth.
And there is an army of guys.
An enormous number of troops have already crossed over to the Arcana continent.
The procession still has no end in sight. However, what was more fearful than that amount was Paimon. Among the dizzying messages, a message that reveals its toxic presence.
[The demon king of the ninth throne, noble Paimon, is watching you.]
No matter how hard I try, I can’t see the odds of winning.
Even if you activate the exorcism.
Even if I step forward with the Heavenly Demon’s lordship that I learned from Saja, Gamigin.
I wasn’t sure if I would be able to stop Paimon and the army right away.
‘It’s more questionable, this.’
How the hell am I alive… … ?
Looking around the battlefield more broadly, I saw the allied forces of the temple. However, their location was far from Behemoth’s Agariwan, and they had not yet encountered Paimon.
Of course you can’t ask for help.
Then there is only one thing I can think of.
[Heaven, Heaven, and Earth, Toddler’s Self]’s rampage, whose proficiency has risen rapidly.
I was able to stand upright like this thanks to that runaway.
‘But the runaway is over.’
No, if you’re going to run out of control, why don’t you run out of control a little more?
How could Paimon be unreasonable?
Either deal with those troops and restrain yourself!
It’s an embarrassing situation.
‘Everything is not normal.’
Knowledge of all minerals acquired thanks to the Pentagram of Pure Knowledge. Thanks to this, I could immediately recognize that the equipment worn by Paimon’s troops was unusual.
Arcana Continent.
To believe that the equipment was covered with rare minerals that even the best blacksmith Dwarves could not easily obtain. There is no way to know if Paimon is great or if the land called Makai is a land of gold.
I finally opened my mouth.
“It’s a pointless outfit.”
Really, it’s a cubic state that doesn’t lose a word.
“Everything will melt in front of the fire of hell.”
Even while spitting out, he is constantly rolling his head.
Thanks to the blessing of the first world tree, the magic power that is almost infinite rises to the 10th place, and thanks to the fact that it transcends the rank once again, its efficiency is such that even I am shocked at times.
‘but… … .’
Will they be able to stop those troops that seem to easily exceed hundreds of thousands?
The [Natural Enemy Relationship] is still active.
It certainly didn’t lift either.
‘Besides, I can’t waste my magic power.’
The military is just military.
The real problem was Paimon, who claimed to be noble. If I lose my eyes when I see it with those eyes… … . Because if I made a mistake, I wouldn’t even be able to find the bones.
But regardless of my concerns.
Swoop.
I prepared for battle again. I don’t know how I fought in the runaway state of [Heaven, Heaven, and Earth]. What I have to do now is simple.
As always, it’s a desperate struggle!
I try to combine oddities in my head.
First of all, shouldn’t we match the number of heads? Lending a hand to the Akshan seniors in hell, materializing the dark dragon that became a dragon lord, high-el, die-end, and even tempest… … .
I was thinking all the means and methods in my head. The words he spat out were concise and unprovocative.
“As expected, you lack patience like an inferior tribe.”
please… … !
“Surely, I personally said that I would go down to the Demon Realm.”
I will go to the demon realm.
It’s not a word I didn’t say or something I didn’t say.
But you have to look at the time, place, and opponent when you talk.
If you say something like that to an angry Paimon.
Do you want to do more than just improve your temper? … .
“My dear. Can you prove that?”
For a moment, I hesitated.
‘Wait, wasn’t it just a passing message?’
Paimon is watching you.
I immediately understood the meaning of the message. It felt like Paimon’s golden pupils were scanning my whole body and my inner self. It was as if he was trying to determine the truth of what I had said.
I thought boldly.
‘Please check it out.’
Sometimes I wonder too
Is the cubic tablet being spit out with real confidence, or is it a reflexive… … ! Of course, my doubts did not last long.
What is it, all of a sudden?
Paimon’s face had changed to a gentle one, as if he had never had a time when he was distorted. I finally understand. Why did a system message that didn’t lie call Paimon noble?
His appearance is so noble that he forgets that he is a devil.
‘Estimally, there is no flaw.’
devil.
Except for the fact that he was a high-ranking demon king, he might have communicated well with Grandfel. So it’s even more suspicious.
why.
“Then, shall we end the banquet at this point?”
the Paimon.
“I leave their disposition to you as a gift.”
Did he go back to the Demon Realm on his own?
There is only one reason I can guess.
I swallowed inwardly.
‘Because I realized that the words about going to the Demon World were true.’
So, I had no choice but to go cold.
Paimon, it’s because I know his purpose clearly. Yes. Paimon did not appear to devour the Arcana continent.
‘It was simply for me.’
as if to prove that fact.
Paimon immediately disappeared.
Then there was a change in the guy’s army.
“Paimon-sama… … ?’
“My king, noble Paimon!”
“Answer my call, former King of the West!!”
“Ugh, my insignificant body… … !!”
Paimon’s soldiers, each one of them super elite, were flowing down. His muscles run down, revealing his ungainly skin.
The equipment comparable to the dwarf’s armor he was wearing began to lose its luster in real time. It turned into a tin can.
‘Was it that kind of ability?’
No matter how high-ranking the demon king is.
I thought this was a balance breakdown.
If the demon realm was overflowing with such resources, why would they invade other worlds? The army was strengthened only by the influence of Paimon.
Of course, after knowing that fact, there was a side effect that Paimon looked even more amazing.
‘Anyway, did you pass it somehow?’
I looked at Paimon’s gift.
The number of fallen soldiers is about 100,000.
However, now that Paimon is gone, there is no dignity like before.
Most of them are imps, so if you’re looking at the average level, it’s probably level 300 at most. I’ll be able to handle it enough on the Allied Crusade line without me having to step out.
‘by the way.’
It’s hard again.
Stepping on the Demon Realm was predestined anyway. Even if Paimon didn’t show up. Because Grandfel-nim, who always keeps the words he utters, must have visited the Pandemonium on his own feet.
Of course, my thoughts were not very different.
‘Because I confirmed it further.’
Gujwa Paimon.
An existence that could lead the Arcana continent to destruction just by its appearance. I realized once again that I had better go than bring something like that to the continent or reality.
Of course, I still couldn’t guess what it was. I mean, when did we see it in the first place? Are you willing to back down while confirming the reunion in the Demon Realm?
‘Anyway, rest is a piece of shit. I’ll have to step up.’
In order to enter the Demon Realm, which is not an ordinary Demon Realm, and which Paimon is eagerly striving for, he had to grow even more than he is now. I looked at the system messages.
‘I have to do unexpected homework.’
[Understanding of Darkness (Curse): Significantly increases appropriate magic affinity. However, they must face the past, which is the source of their magical powers. – Currently suitable magic affinity: 70%]
[Heaven, Heaven, and Earth, Children alone (70%): A rare genius who blasphemes even the Goddess. Grand Fel Cloudy Arpheus demonstrates Romeo’s talent.]
A whopping 30 percent rise.
Now that I know the side effect of ‘runaway’.
It was necessary to practice to control the child’s independence in the heavens and the world.
of course.
‘It shouldn’t be overlooked.’
The reason for the significant increase in understanding.
『Cloudy’s Original Sin』
In many ways, I really don’t want to look back, but I felt like I should properly dig into the footprints Cloudy left on the Arcana continent.
But more than anything, it was how to explain this situation.
It must have captured the changed momentum of the battlefield. The Iron Castle and the Allied Crusade were approaching the battlefield.
Think from their point of view.
I can’t guess how the process happened because it’s in a state of runaway, but if you look at the result, it’s a perfect victory that no one can refute.
To put it simply… … .
As always, it is a victory that is bound to create an illusion. And, as always, it’s time for this doom-calling muzzle, which has no choice but to be shameless, to wail.
“Hyel.”
At my call, Highel appears from the void.
Why, you lower your head unusually more today.
I don’t know why, but I said it like always.
“Tell me.”
“I will tell you, lord.”
“I will leave the handling of the defeated soldiers to you.”
I added
“Because I believe in you.”
Imps should be able to hunt enough, well.
“……!”
Highel flinched once, then raised his head and replied.
It’s been a while, but the corner of Hiel’s mouth is a little bit.
It was clearly up.
“I will follow your will, lord.”
*
System messages that were messy.
And the raucous knights.
finally.
[Number of unread messages: 999+]
Even a group chat room with blood relatives.
The progress of the runaway, looking back belatedly, was very spectacle.
Wouldn’t it burst all the demonic eyes that surfaced in reality, wouldn’t it trample on the half-blood demon? It was a feat that was enough to drive the enemy into fear without distinguishing between the allies.
‘Of course, including me.’
The power of Grand Fel in its heyday.
It makes sense that with great power comes great responsibility.
If I can’t control the [Heaven and Heaven and Earth’s Infants].
If you fall into a runaway state again… … ?
‘Just imagining it is terrifying.’
Maybe it’s because I invested my stats in [Luck].
I don’t know why, but… … .
The results of the belated confirmation reflected quite a few coincidences.
‘I can’t rely on coincidence again next time.’
However, there was one fact that did not change.
‘Anyway, while I struggle in the dark’s understanding.”
Grandfel, that you saved me.
Again, I don’t have the ability to stand up to Paimon.
But I won’t be so grateful.
Just like you saved me in reality.
‘Because I also saved myself from the past.’
And there’s one more thing that won’t change.
Shuk.
I secretly checked Wen-su and Lee Ye-rim’s talk.
“sister… … .”
Don’t speak faintly, Grandfel.
The moment I checked Wensoo’s talk.
Something rose from the depths of my heart.
again.
Get up from your seat and take a step. Then I stopped in front of the full-length mirror that I use to trim my outfit. Not to mention Grandfel’s keen sense of aesthetics.
I just see it through Lee Ho-yeol’s eyes.
Long, still flowing hair… … !
Yes.
Maybe it’s because of the influence of the rising Heaven and Earth children’s independence.
Or is it that more time has passed in the social space of time and space?
I don’t know why, but… … .
My hair wasn’t coming back the way it was.
I checked Lee Ye-rim’s talk again.
– Hey, Lee Ho-yeol
-Is that your hair extension???
-How much did you pay for it hahahahahahahahaha
… … In many ways, the ordeal never ends, really.
