Chapter 900,
Chapter 227. New Enemies Enemies of Enemies (1)
“It has become almost certain that Viseps has teamed up with Runcandel.”
The poisonous demon, Kelliac Ziple, said as he entered Ragal’s office. He had just returned from meeting Myu, who had just come to the realm of demons, and receiving a report about Anne.
“It’s almost certain… It’s a bit disappointing for the information I gained while losing Shiker.”
“Anne died once. However, since the time it took for him to lose his body was too short, he must have been killed by someone else, not Baek Kyung. If you were a white policeman, you would never be able to take care of Anne, who has made such a miserable appearance, with a single knife.”
“Right. Is that your opinion?”
person on your side.
Ragal hadn’t met Joshua or Ganestoga yet. Of course, they tortured them when they were prisoners, but after they awakened and went to the world of Lokia, only Kelliac was in contact with Ganestoga.
“okay. He was a person who knew Baek Wyung very well, so he would be right. I can’t do that even if I think about the white whale I experienced myself in the past.”
“Baek Kyung followed Chiron Runkandel to the Black Sea, right? What is the possibility that he changed into a monster from there and became a human without blood or tears?”
“If that were the case, Shiron would not have brought back the white whale. In the first place, there was no such thing in the information about Baekkyung that had been reported to the Jinma World. It seems that my words, “almost certain,” are getting stuck, but I think it’s okay to recognize that Biceps and Runkandel’s cooperation is certain, Ragal.”
“Then you are fortunate. Shiker was a good guy though.”
Kelliac sat down and opened the spell book.
Ragal cleared his throat as he looked into his eyes.
“Hmmmm! By the way, my friend Kelliac, the people on your side I just met. Can you introduce me too?”
“It is not yet at that stage.”
“Oops. Is it because you still can’t trust me?”
“Of course it is.”
“No… I have no intention of betraying you. you know my circumstances. If I accuse Jito-sama of you, my throat will be blown off first, and honestly, it seems impossible to kill you in conjunction with other demon lords.”
Kelliac made eye contact with Ragal and smiled meaningfully.
“That’s not why I can’t completely trust you, Ragal.”
“Then why…?”
“Because you don’t know yourself yet.”
“You don’t know me? What do you mean, friend Kelliac?”
“You will find out later what I mean. Didn’t you feel like your head was getting clearer while you were with me these days?”
Ragal looked back for a while. As Kelliac said, it seemed that her brain was rapidly increasing after meeting him.
“Well, it seems like that. Certainly… I’m a lot less excited or frivolous than before. Even so, for some reason, I feel like I have to show the same image to Jito-nim as usual, so I deliberately act more stupidly whenever someone calls me.”
The reason Ragal changed was no different.
Brainwashing.
As Tilias had informed Jin, most of Zito’s men were currently brainwashed by pain. For this reason, even among the high-ranking demons, most of them did not have normal intelligence or ability.
It was also the reason why the combat power of most demon kings was too low compared to the superhumans at the top of the royal family.
Ragal herself is unconscious, but the brainwashing has been fading little by little since meeting Kelliac.
Brainwashing can never be completely lifted until Zito dies, but even this much had to make a big difference to Ragal.
“…Hoo! Suddenly something strange? How did this happen? Did this also start thanks to you, my friend Kelliac? I just thought I was unusually refreshed when I woke up lately.”
“When you get to know yourself, then it will be all right to meet my people.”
Ragal seemed to respect Kelliac even more.
It hadn’t been long since Kelliac showed his true colors, but Ragal was sincerely admiring the abilities he had shown so far.
It was something that Ragal could not have imagined that Biseps had spies in Dokma Castle and that Biseps had connections with Inse.
It was the same with stealing prisoners from the dungeon, as well as Kelliac secretly communicating with Jito with ‘some kind of force’ in the Demon Realm.
‘It’s possible because there’s a witch in the back, but Kelliac… the more I see him, the more difficult it is to treat him carelessly. It sounds like you have a lot of ambition too. It’s to the extent that I wonder if this friend will pass Jito later… or something like that might happen.’
Ragal’s desire for recognition, which had been brainwashed so far, was directed only toward Jito. It had been Ragal’s long-held dream that the day would come when he would receive more recognition from Zito and the respect of all other Demon Lords beyond Faelito.
However, these days, Ragal’s desire to be recognized by Kelliac as much as Zito was growing stronger.
“hmm! Then this cutie Ragal will have to try harder. By the way, my friend, demon lords have been dying in battle too often lately. Jito-sama, the Haita family, and the general secretary may question the loss of Siker this time.”
“Jito probably won’t come here because of me, and while Haita is here, I’ll try to meet him.”
“Ah, you mean that Haitaga will also be swallowed up? Just like you did to me.”
“If Sicher’s deputy is more eloquent than the person I first met, then there’s no need to go that far. Because you were rather badly beaten by me.”
“It was terrible… To be honest, I was full of confidence after sending Elona to the hospital, so I was shocked. Now I know that it was only because of the hostages that I was able to make Elona into that shape.”
Just as Ragal is regaining his intelligence and ability, the same will happen if the demons of the Haita family become Kelliac’s minions. Ragal thought that if that happened, a person who was much stronger and superior than the dead Shiker among the Demon Lord-class demons of the Haita family would be revealed.
“I just thought about it, but for some reason you feel like you’re going to take over the Jinma world this way, don’t you?”
“As I said before, my ultimate goal is to get my family back.”
“Did you naturally need to apply for Jinma World in that process?”
“I still have a lot of questions. Don’t worry about losing the Demon King. With the ongoing battle at the Wall, the General Secretary won’t have the energy to come to you to argue with you about the Siker. Druga Killet survived. And most of all, even if a large number of demon lords died, the total fighting power of the real demon world is on the rise.”
“Thanks to the souls you resurrected along with your people?”
-I’m already looking for 5 souls that can be used on the Zipple side… I’m so lucky to have met a friend, right?
These were the words Ragal said shortly after taking over Keliac from Zito.
Then, and now that the relationship had been reversed, Kelliac was still searching Hell for a ‘worthy soul’.
And among the souls that were collected, there were also those who were not Ziffle. A figure like Kiddard Hall in Yeokcheon was representative.
“Yes, Ragal.”
“Eh, I’m concerned about whether Jito-nim is consciously conniving at witches or whether he really doesn’t know about their existence. But are they really much stronger than the dead demon lords?”
“They are also beings who once dominated public life or were especially revered. It is far superior to demon kings who do not have the original status.”
“It turns out to be fun in many ways… Anyway, then what’s next? The alliance between Biseps and Runcandel has been confirmed, what should we do now? By spreading false information to spy Biseps, are you creating a situation where Luna Runkandel has no choice but to face the brothers face-to-face?”
“no. Anne hadn’t woken up yet, so I couldn’t hear the details, but she must have used her powers before she lost her body. So whoever killed Anne would have been reported to the Bamal Alliance, and the White Wyvern would no longer hesitate to cut down his brothers in Hell.”
“Then it would be difficult to use the brothers to gnaw at Baek Kyung’s spirit.”
“We just have to wait for the time while contacting Haita and the same families for the time being. While Zito’s forces and the Barmal Alliance fight, you just have to watch both sides wear out. Instead, there is one thing you might like.”
“Oh, what I would love to do! Something?”
“I need to make one of the demon kings of the Belgasium family my own.”
Ragal’s eyes widened.
“I’m sure you’re not referring to faelito… Then what about Leila Belgasium?”
“okay. Leila Belgasium, like you, has powers close to spearheads, even though she doesn’t know herself. I plan to make him face the white whale in the future.”
“Ohh… Layla is separately carrying out Jito-sama’s secret orders. And as much as I hate to admit it, Layla is much stronger than I am. Of course, you can step on Layla as much as you like, but you only know how long and short it is.”
“Sometimes you don’t have to check to see what’s clear. But I have no intention of fighting Leila Belgasium. With just a few words of conversation, he will betray Zito and join me.”
Ragal couldn’t imagine what that naive and high-nosed Layla would do, but nodded.
“If you are, then so be it. However, the content is good, but I don’t know what part I would like.”
“Wouldn’t it be nice if Layla joined me, because you would rank higher than her?”
Ragal let out a big laugh.
“Of course not…! After all, the only ones who think of me are my friends!”
“Send an invitation to Layla. If you say you have something to tell me about Zito’s secret order, you’ll have no choice but to come back even if you don’t want to.”
“What, did you even know the contents of that secret order? I’m getting goosebumps… Okay, let’s call Layla immediately. If you become my subordinate, I’ll return all the insults you’ve received so far, Layla.”
Ragal started writing the invitations, and Kelliac closed the spell book and thought for a moment.
He was thinking about Mu Ganesto, whom he had just met. According to what I saw through ‘insight’ while talking with Mew, she was hiding something from herself.
‘If it’s something that the Ganestos have already hidden from me… is it information about the dragons they abandoned in the past? I’ll have to meet up with Ran Ganesto or Vigo Ganesto to confirm properly next time. It’s a burden to use insight against Joshua.’
