Episode 446. Devil’s Counterattack (2)
Black short hair covering the whole body.
Contrast this with bright yellow eyes.
It was ‘Ellie’, a middle manager in the form of a cat.
She was also in charge of the hosting part of ‘Produce 101’.
“Nya. How did you know?”
how do you know
“You admins put a lot of shoveling into this theme, so of course they were watching with interest.”
“Sah, shoveling… you’re talking harshly. This is just a minor internal problem…” ”
Is a trivial problem interfering with the Demon Realm in Produce 101? A deal that allowed me to interfere this deeply?”
“Nya, nyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaity.. that’s…”
“Okay. Don’t explain in detail. The words that will come out of that mouth are obvious to hear.”
Jinhyeok cut off Eli’s words.
“This 30th floor has thousands of themes, and it was so difficult to manage, right? You did as you were told to do, so you didn’t know this would happen.”
“That’s right! That’s exactly what I wanted to say!”
Ellie nodded vigorously.
As if he drank a bowl of churro mixed with carbonic acid, it was a bonus that his expression of 10 years of stuffiness went down.
The tone of Jinhyeok’s voice changed 180 degrees.
From criticism to empathy.
“Yes, I know it all. I know it all too. You’re stuck in the middle and struggling. The authority is small, but the responsibility is filthy heavy…. suffered a lot.”
“Kkeuugh… Nyaaa! It was really hard. They said they were threatened with being deprived of their managerial position! I don’t even know what this is all about…!”
“So. Shouldn’t we find out who the corrupt insider is more? That way, both the manager and the player can resolve the unfair situation.”
The culprit behind this must be inside the administration.
In addition to Hastings, there are garbage bugs that help him.
“Ha, but…”
“Think carefully. If you can catch such a large-scale corruption, it’s not even a job to get a promotion. Maybe, instead of a small theme like this, you can be in charge of the entire main floor?”
A middle manager who manages middle managers.
You will rise to the enviable position right below your upper management.
If this doesn’t appeal to you, it’s a lie.
“…!”
An earthquake occurred in Ellie’s pupils.
Will it become a middle management position that suffers forever like this?
Or will he use this opportunity as a stepping stone to become the one who shakes the plate?
For Ellie, the outcome was as if it were pre-determined.
“Nya, I… what can I do?”
“From now on, remember everything I say. What are you going to do…”
Jinhyeok slowly began to explain his plans for the future.

Parts!
Light falling from top to bottom.
Kim Dong-Hwan’s attack landed on the Heavenly Demon’s head.
Kwaaang!
The Heavenly Demon managed to deflect the attack by using the ‘Heavenly Demon’s Ruler’.
If the reaction was delayed even by a second, a wind hole would have formed in the body.
But you can’t be at ease.
It was because the opponent was able to use the ‘Heavenly Demon’s Limbo’ as well.
Quaang!
Kim Dong-hwan caught the Heavenly Horse at once.
A storm of attacks followed.
And besides…
“Cheuk!”
“Oops!”
The bodies of Dark Hwang and Chu Hon Sa-yeong, who were fighting a short distance away, were greatly staggered.
With a body that had already reached its limit, he did everything he could, but…
it was not enough to be the opponent of the rest of the Heavenly Demons.
The two collapsed, covered in blood, breathing heavily.
I didn’t even have the energy to make time anymore.
“As expected, fighting is best with a frying pan and kitchen knife.”
‘Cheon Jong-won’, the heavenly horse of cooking, swung the kitchen tools lightly.
Next to him was the heavenly horse ‘Kane’ who played with a soccer ball made of iron and the heavenly horse ‘Nilberken’ possessed by the count’s madman.
Since he had mastered the ‘Heavenly Magic Art’, which is the foundation, even if he had no weapons or equipment, his body itself was like a weapon.
“If you continue, only you will suffer. Rather, accept your fate comfortably. Then, I’ll finish it in one blow.”
Kim Dong-hwan, squatting in front of the Heavenly Demon, smirked.
“Do you think hostages would be meaningful to me?”
“It’s ridiculous to mention hostages to the Heavenly Demon. If you ask the rest of us here, including me, the answer will be the same.”
but.
“You are an exception. Even if it’s not on the surface, you’ve shown excessively big movements to protect your subordinates.”
[Kim Dong-hwan activates Lv28 ‘King’s Sword’!]
Parts!
A blue river gushed along the fountain pen.
“Let’s finish with one of your lives. I’ll spare the rest.”
Now, if you add the effort of twisting the chicken head, the fight will be over.
But it was when Kim Dong-hwan was about to finish.
“…hmm?”
Suddenly, a new magical force was detected behind her back.
This is the unique reaction felt when the gate appears.
no way?
“Kang Jin-hyuk!”
The only one who can come here is the player Guntaper warned about.
However, it was not Jinhyeok who showed up.
Kwak Kwah Kwah Kwah!
Immediately, weapons with strong magical powers poured out from the gate.
“Window 22 ‘Kassias’.”
A massive spear reminiscent of the lances of heavy cavalry.
A total of twenty-two spears were blown up by Kim Dong-hwan and the Heavenly Demons.
Kwak!
Kaaang!
It was a surprise attack, but the Heavenly Demons skillfully responded to the attack.
“Beermount… what are you doing!”
“Why are you screaming like a betrayed lover? We weren’t even that close. I just switched sides the way I wanted.”
“You say…?”
Next to the beer mount, Jinhyeok sticks his head out.
“You caught a rotten rope. Trusting such a stupid person and betraying us.”
“Gee, that’s a bit harsh. A rotten rope.”
If you know how promising our company is, you will want to join us right away.
“Ellis.”
“huh.”
“Collect the survivors and let them escape. Once you get out of the gate, go straight to the place I told you about and hide.”
“Okay. Who’s the contractor?”
“I’ll have to keep an eye on them to make sure they don’t do anything stupid.”
“Surveillance? You bastard us?”
At Jinhyeok’s words, Kim Donghwan’s eyebrows curved in reverse.
Anger is bound to rise.
It was because they were saying that they would at least stop their act of daring to eat a world.
“Do you want to die?”
“No, do you want to live happily ever after?”
The two eyes met head-on.
“Nyaa! Everyone please stop.”
A shrill, high-pitched voice interrupted.
It was middle manager Ellie.
“Ellie…?”
“Why are you?”
“Wasn’t the manager taking a neutral position?”
For the first time among the Heavenly Demons, a voice mixed with bewilderment came out.
It was because he hadn’t even imagined that Jinhyeok would come with Eli.
Either that or not.
Ellie ignored everyone’s questions and silently added what she had to say.
“From now on, I will add one provision with the authority of a mid-level manager.”
[For the sake of fairness in the theme ‘Produce 101,’ players are given one privilege.] [
The Ancient Intrigue Corporation can ask for help from forces on the 30th floor or higher, and if the other party accepts it, it can manifest without restrictions.]
[ This contract is made with the approval of the senior manager ‘Vendivia’ and execution by the middle manager ‘Ellie’.] A
trump card prepared to keep the Pandemonium and Olympus in check.
This is the beginning of a counterattack.
“I will seek help from Beriel of the Demon World and the gods of Egypt.”
Jinhyeok confidently called the deities he was close to.
But
[…]
[….]
for some reason, the two deities did not appear.
‘What’s the matter…’
Jinhyeok gathered his mana again.
But the result was still the same.
“As expected, I thought you would do a trick like that.”
end with a cold voice.
A high-ranking blood relative among the Heavenly Demons. The appearance of ‘Agrok’ began to change.
Crunchy!
Wooduk!
“Kuaaa!”
Agrock became all too familiar with the screams.
“Hwiyu. This takes a lot of work. But before killing me, I wanted to see the face of the guy who rotted me so much.”
Gunta Ferda.
To be precise, it was just conveying the intention through the body of a blood relative, not the main body.
“Did you know that I would call Beriel and Anubis?”
“Of course. Since those two are normally close friends with you. Of course, I expected that you would insist on fairness through the manager and use the means to manifest them.”
But that’s it.
Even if that is possible…
“If they can’t afford to help you, wouldn’t they have no choice but to refuse the summons?”
A fishy smile formed on Guntafer’s lips.
At the same time, beyond the gate where Jinhyeok and Alice came out, another staircase began to appear.
It was the stairway where Beriel and the Egyptian deities were located.
-Kiii…
-Death…!
Currently, the great heroes of Olympus and the four knights of the Book of Revelation are manifested in Oasis.
“These… bastards…!”
“Now they’re attacking openly.”
Egyptian gods such as Anubis and Horus were busy dealing with this.
The light went off right away, but it would be impossible to pay attention to anything else.
In addition, Beriel’s territory was also under intensive fire from the demon lords who had joined forces with Guntaper.
Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!
Everything was stained dark red by blood and ashes.
“Of course, Beriel, that leech-like guy, might try to help you even by giving away part of his territory.”
Arrangements for it have already been completed.
The pursuit party, composed of the direct blood relatives of each demon king, aimed only at Beriel.
Because the reins were constantly tightened, there was no chance that Beriel would escape the Pandemonium.
The remaining members of the Goinmul Corporation are also disconnected as they pursue different themes.
It’s completely out of the way.
“When the enemy sees one move, this body always looks ahead two, no, ten. That’s the difference between you and me, who can’t even live a hundred years.”
* * *
Jinhyuk wet his lips with his tongue.
Think.
The card I had prepared has become useless, so I need a second best way to overcome this situation.
Of course, Guntafer didn’t give me time to think about it leisurely.
“Behemoth. That guy is the target.”
Guntafer nodded to the side.
“It’s still absurd that I went to such lengths to catch a human, but, well, work is work
.
” She walked out.
A short-haired girl with a slender body,
holding a pair of small horns on her head and a large sword in contrast.
Who could see this and think that she is a divine beast on the same level as the Kraken and Leviathan?
No, simply because of her appearance. It’s crazy to judge by only one.
Chills.
A chill runs down
the spine .
They said that they were climbing mountains more and more. Only then did it seem difficult to get out of this place with the Heavenly Demon and Master.
