Episode 425
[Something is strange.]
Diablo said so.
Taehyun Kim.
When I first met him, I thought he was a contractor from Rosaria.
It was clearly human.
That guy used power comparable to that of the Archduke, and not only was he using someone else’s power, he even used the power of ‘that guy’ who destroyed him.
[What are you?]
Only then did Diablo’s unstable mind feel a chill.
Perhaps District 15 was his territory.
It was recognized that it could be a place of resurrection and a stage of extinction for the second time.
That’s because his power is imperfect.
It also showed that they were not completely immune from fear.
“It’s too late to notice.”
Taehyeon told Typhon and Gilfer that he would deal with Diablo.
I need time to adjust to my newfound power.
There is no way to get used to something as quickly as bumping into one another.
This meant holding on to Mephisto until Diablo was dealt with.
[My body has become ridiculous. I never thought he would be deployed to deal with the Great Evil.]
[This guy is no longer the Great Evil. It would be correct to think of him as an archduke.]
Ppa-deuk.
Gilper, who had never shown any emotion, gritted his teeth.
This is because I have no choice but to acknowledge Mephisto, who gained the power of the Grand Duke before me.
Typhon was no different.
[So, isn’t that why it looks funny? Who would have thought that the contractor would obtain the power of the Archduke before the main body regained its power. Aren’t you saying that you will deal with the two Archdukes alone?]
[….]
Gilper agreed in silence.
I thought I would get stronger, but it was because I got stronger too quickly.
The current Taehyun was becoming something unexpected.
[He is saying that he will deal with the two archdukes…]
Something flashed through Gilpere’s mind.
Fairy King Elven.
In her prime, she had the power to take on two archdukes at the same time.
[Could it be that I have obtained the power of the Fairy King?]
I was just muttering it to myself, but Typhon and Diablo Mephisto heard it clearly.
The power of the fairy king.
Typhon needs it to regain his strength.
It was so annoying that Diablo had to join hands with Beelzebub.
For Mephisto, it was something that had to be stopped before it sprouted.
The eyes of the four monsters all turned to Taehyun.
Is that really true?
Have you come to control the power of the Fairy King?
“Well, how about that?”
Taehyun showed a meaningful smile and released his magic power.
Dark red magical power bloomed.
Tiring.
[The unique skill Predation (???) has been activated. Specifies the target.]
Ugh.
A huge maw rose up between Diablo and Mephisto.
Mephisto and Diablo were scattered in opposite directions.
Taehyun stood in front of Diablo.
[Bitch…!!]
Diablo shot a fight.
It reminded me of the energy of the person who destroyed me in the jaws of predation.
“key.”
[What…]
“The key chosen by the person who defeated you for the race war. “Other guys say that about me.”
[…!!]
Diablo’s eyes widened.
Tiring.
[Skill Apocalypse (???) has been activated. Specifies the target.]
[Skill Apocalypse (???) has been strengthened. Magic power consumption accelerates.]
Huaaaaaaa.
Darkness fell once again.
This time, it’s only for Diablo.
[Puh… Puhuh….]
Diablo suddenly burst into laughter.
It’s as if he doesn’t care about the chains that entangle me, as if he doesn’t care about the spirit that suffocates me.
He shook his head for a while.
[It’s a key.]
He pondered the meaning of Taehyun’s words.
[It is the key chosen by ‘that guy’ to end the racial war.]
I arbitrarily thought that I was a descendant of ‘that guy’.
This is because a long time has passed since he was destroyed, and his power was too weak to say that he inherited its power.
[The mouth he was handling wasn’t this big.]
That’s why I was confident.
When we meet again, when we have the same power as now, the results will be completely different.
The person in front of him was looking at him with pity.
“It’s perfect. “Diablo.”
[…!!]
Diablo’s face distorted at the words that seemed to sympathize with me.
Magic power was released with full power.
The power of fear emanated from the five horns, the magic stone that resonated with Mephisto became stronger every moment, and the snake-like tail was already like a living being.
However, his power ‘fear’ did not work.
He must have already regained considerable strength.
They must have already surpassed the highest level and gained the power of large-scale supply.
“It’s really funny.”
[….]
At the taunt, Diablo made eye contact with Taehyun.
The red eye symbolizes the monsters of the lower world and the blue eye symbolizes the heavenly people of the upper world.
For some reason, the guy who had one of them was feeling sorry for himself.
dare.
[Something like a lowly insect.]
Diablo growled.
Like humans.
Don’t let the little things on Earth dare look down on the Great Duke of the Underworld.
He said, firing off a series of speculations.
Taehyun still didn’t seem to care.
I couldn’t help but ask.
[Just because you resisted the power of your original demon…]
Did you think you won?
Taehyun shook his head.
No.
just.
“The weakest of the great air forces. “It’s funny that you were defeated by the power of Rosaria, which you considered insignificant.”
Quick.
[…!!]
A crack was heard from somewhere.
It was something that happened inside Diablo, not something that could be heard from the outside.
“Did you think the Archduke’s strength was restored?”
Quickly.
The cracking sound got louder.
“Did you think I had the power of the Fairy King?”
Snapping.
The huge gold was now clearly recognizable.
The world reflected in the enemy’s eyes.
A space that I believed was real.
Drumming. Snapping.
It started to collapse.
Personal space.
[When…!!]
Where the darkness collapsed, brilliance flashed.
“How about facing reality? “Diablo.”
Taehyun reminded me of the cold reality.
[Ah…]
Diablo let out a sigh without realizing it.
Only then did I realize it.
Before he knew it, he had fallen under Taehyun’s mental control.
He is still just a remnant using the human body as a medium.
He was unable to regain his status as an archduke.
* * *
[…Since when?]
Where does it start from reality and where does it start from fiction?
[Since when have you been under mental control?]
Diablo asked.
The madness and arrogance from before disappeared and he even became calm.
“From the beginning.”
[Mocking the original demon until the end….]
“That’s because I haven’t properly obtained the power of the divine beast yet.”
[….]
“That does not mean that the king’s power is perfectly handled.”
[….]
“I don’t have the confidence to face two archdukes in such a situation.”
[…I see.]
Diablo chuckled.
Unlike the previous laughter, there was no sense of speculation or resistance.
You know it.
I was hypnotized without even realizing it.
The boasted power also does not work.
The power gap was clear.
[Tell me one thing.]
Taehyun nodded as if to continue.
[What are you?]
What is it that allows you to use the power of the King of the Underworld?
What is it that allows them to use the powers of the princes so freely?
He asked with pure curiosity.
“key. “That’s true.”
Diablo nodded at Taehyun’s words.
[It’s a shame. If the original demon had been a little more cautious, the demon race would have been completely resurrected.]
“In the first place, life is like a piece of paper.”
As Taehyun said those words, dark red magic surged from his body.
I walked towards Diablo.
Until then, Diablo made no movement.
Ugh.
Mouths sprouted from all over Taehyun’s body.
The thoughts of the doppelganger that the Elven killed a while ago.
Diablo chuckled at the sight of him becoming one with predation, just like he did.
A racial war that he could not participate in.
Maybe this time it could end with a victory for the lower world.
[His real name is the Lord of Terror. He was a grand duke and a demon king.]
“Yes.”
Tuk.
Taehyun’s hand touched Diablo’s large body.
“Mephisto will also be dealt with soon.”
[….]
“No one will remember your resurrection.”
Ugh. Wow. Ugh.
The maw of devouring surrounded Diablo’s body.
“I will remember you.”
Kwaduk!!
Quad deuk. Crack. Quad deuk.
The sound of the former archduke, who could not be revived, being chewed and swallowed rang out.
* * *
Tuuk.
A dual image world.
As soon as he left the personal space, the power of Diablo was gone and Ryusbo collapsed.
Take a moment to look down at your miserable naked body.
Tiring.
[You have feasted on the fragments of a gigantic being.]
[Skill ‘Demonization’ has been changed to ‘Great Demonization’.] [
The mastery of skill ‘Heart of the Great Demon’ has increased.]
In addition, a message saying that your physical abilities have increased It occurred to me.
Taehyun, who lifted Apocalypse, saw Typhon and Gilfer dealing with Mephisto.
This is a guy who had access to the power of the Archduke through Diablo, but it seemed like Diablo had been consumed a while ago and he was back to his original state.
In other words, it is an incomplete large-scale supply.
Even to that extent, he was not defeated by Typhon and Gilfer.
‘Let’s watch for a bit.’
Taehyun sat on the corpse of an unknown demon.
They were the ones destroyed by Apocalypse a little while ago.
[sibling. You have grown to an unbelievable degree.]
The miniaturized Erebos, who had already approached, said so.
The body size was reduced to avoid being caught up in the battles of giant beings.
“The battle ahead will be more difficult.”
This is far from enough.
Taehyun spoke calmly.
[….]
“There is a face I can’t see.”
In response to Taehyeon’s question, Rosaria told him that she had gone to meet Hazard and that the Elven was hiding near the Shinsu.
Although not as much as on Earth, it was clear that a significant amount of time had passed in the virtual world.
“Hajadra. “Is that guy still sleeping?”
[The time the Balaur spends in hibernation cannot be measured by human standards. It may be that Lord Hazzard did not want to admit that he had become your contract.]
The nuance was that he went into hibernation until the turf war was over due to his rebellious spirit after signing a contract with Taehyun.
‘Well, if Rosaria went, it would be resolved somehow.’
The princes looked down on her military power, but Taehyun was confident.
That one day, the monster that followed the King of the Underworld will rise to the highest position among the great dukes.
She is King Hagye and Kim Tae-hyun.
Because it is the only monster that truly follows two people who can be said to be different species and shares its power.
“Now Mephisto comes first.”
Taehyun stood up and checked that the battle had reached its end.
Wow!!
Suddenly!!
The Giant King’s massive body was thrown away and Gilfer, whose wings were cut off, was falling.
Mephisto raised his power and was absorbing the souls of fallen monsters in the area.
“Where?”
Taehyun caught something coming out of the body of the monster he was sitting on just a moment ago.
Tiring.
[Skill Energy Drain (???) has been activated.]
I tried to absorb it as is.
Ssssss.
The soul escaped Taehyun’s hand and headed towards Mephisto.
“Does power mean power?”
Tiring.
[Skill Great Demonization (???) has been activated.]
[Skill Great Demon Heart (???) has been activated.]
Three horns, magic stones, and a tail were created.
Kiiiii-.
I lifted my fingernails.
and.
Phew!!
A huge thorn pierced Mephisto’s back as he was chopping up Typhon and Gilfer.
[…bloke!! I’m waiting patiently….]
Crumble… Suddenly!!
Taehyun moved his hand and cut off Mephisto’s skin.
“It’s a player replacement. The Great Devil.”
