Episode 381. The Demon King (2)
Ten Seats (十座).
A high-ranking demon lord is an existence that cannot be judged.
It has the ability to influence one’s worldview. I don’t know if it’s natural or if it’s from the throne they sit on. That strength is not a lie.
That’s why I, Lee Ho-yeol, had no choice but to humiliate myself.
What am I not in a position to cover?
You may not know Grandfel, but Lee Ho-yeol should not cover anything.
I did not forget that original intention and found a place to struggle.
Whether it was a skill, an item, a nasty trick, an elementary-level science, magic, whatever. Only when I use them all will I be able to withstand the weight of the burden I am carrying.
But life is also not easy.
decathlon.
I hoped to have special powers unrelated to demons.
Was it just a vague wind?
I looked at the emerging message.
[A unique atmosphere dominates the area.]
[Current atmosphere: Devil King Lee Ho-yeol of the Ten Thrones]
[Caution: Akkshan is watching you.]
Let’s skip the [Inherent atmosphere] brought about by [Charm] for a moment.
what’s important now
It means that our Akkshan seniors are keeping an eye on me.
‘It feels like the back of my head is getting stung.’
One line message.
However, the meaning contained is never light.
I haven’t forgotten
The reason why some Akkshan seniors fell into Hell.
It was the Akkshan seniors of hell who looked into demons to hunt demons, eventually fell into demons, were hunted by their colleagues, and fell into hell.
‘There’s no excuse.’
In that sense.
I was no different from them.
no, it would be much more serious.
Why is it not just a demon, but a demon lord?
It’s no different from becoming a high-level demon lord.
I thought I could understand why Akshan seniors were keeping an eye on this junior.
But I didn’t stop.
It was because he was sure.
Even if it is the power of a high-ranking demon lord.
The one who won’t be swayed by that evil.
The source of this confidence is, of course, Grandfel.
I opened my mouth.
“Your guess is correct.”
Mary nodded softly.
“This is the power of the Demon King.”
in a very high place.
It’s like looking at a far higher being.
Mary with a truly bewildered expression.
It was a familiar expression to me. The reaction of the people of the Seorn continent who faced Baal’s forearm was exactly that. But like I said, no worries, Mary.
The silence is unmatched.
heart rate.
Even on the inside.
Even on the body.
There was no change whatsoever for me.
『The first thing Grandfel learned as the next head of household was not to worry about personal matters.』
Even if it was the power of a high-level demon king.
Is it because they consider Grandfel to be private?
I don’t know the exact reason, but one thing is for sure.
『The position of head of the Cloudy family was a position where even the slightest disturbance was not tolerated.』
Now I was no different from usual.
‘So…’
If it’s a demon, especially if it’s a high-ranking demon king, even our Akkshan seniors, who would have rushed at it like crazy, must be just watching me. It doesn’t matter if it’s underestimated or overestimated.
『Proof for underestimation. Because the overestimation ended up being a reality.”
That’s right.
Because now I was thinking of digesting even the power of the higher level demon king as my own. Otherwise, from the challengers aiming at me, who is at the bottom of the ranking. In the ranking battle with the top demon lord. Because I won’t be able to survive in the demon realm that I walked into with my own feet.
I recited as if I was determined.
“So you can do your best.”
nod
soo oh
Mary’s purple light gushed out more violently.
I am also a transcendental person who can enter the social arena of time and space.
Thanks to that, Mary knew how much the cigarette she was wearing was worth.
‘Maybe the cheapest one was 100 gold per pack?’
I had never witnessed Mary’s powers.
But I can assure you that Mary will be stronger than any wizard I’ve ever seen. Even Topju’s cat couldn’t form a circle.
‘Compared to that, I am.’
Total amount of absolute horsepower?
would be incomparably lower.
circle?
It was formed through the intake of the elixir, but it is safe to say that he risked his life to force it open. Even the experience cannot be compared. Mary watched for bad omens for nearly aeons.
Even for the price of cigarettes, he must have been consistently performing high-level space-time missions.
self.
So if you look at it objectively.
I wouldn’t have been able to accept Mary’s first apparition.
If only I had fought with magic without using the power of a higher level demon king.
oh oh
The magic power of dusk is dozens of times thicker than the same total amount of magic power. What that means is simple. It means that you can draw high magic expression power with little magic power.
‘It’s real power.’
Even Mary stayed in the Mage Tower and learned new magic.
Now I’m the only one who can say I’m ahead.
I couldn’t even save the magic knowledge advantage.
‘I didn’t manifest attribute magic as proof.’
Attribute magic has a distinct advantage. Just as the ice wizard Senios couldn’t overcome the fire dragon Karimzeba. It means that there is a natural relationship between eating and being eaten.
shoot it
But what poured into me was just pure twilight magic itself.
He must have fully mastered the concept of pure magic.
One day, the announcement of the senior lecturer at the regular academic conference flashed through my mind.
-“Pure magic is the most efficient magic in theory! Because there is no such thing as compatibility. However, there is one major weakness…!”
The moment pure magic collides with other magic. It would have been said that there was a weakness in that if the total amount of absolute magical power was pushed back, pure magic would ride on other magic and manifest itself reversely.
‘That’s why Bangrit was appointed.’
Magical affinity that is considered the best in the Mage Tower.
Bangrit was literally like a lotus flower that bloomed in the mud. The innate magic affinity was what prevented Bangrit’s pure magic from experiencing a reverse manifestation no matter what kind of magic collided with it.
‘That’s why the pure magic that Mary manifests is.’
Wouldn’t it be safe to say that it is the perfect upward compatibility of Bangrit?
What he meant was simple.
It means that I don’t have the talent to accept it.
‘come.’
Woo-wook.
The magic storm of the purple twilight raged fiercely.
Basic magical knowledge flows through my head. In order to respond to pure magic, you must confront it with the most powerful magic among the magic you can manifest.
‘Because the absolute total amount is important.’
But what’s my specialty?
understanding the subject
Even if I use construction magic, which is the most magically efficient among magic that can be manifested, I will not be able to respond to Mary’s twilight magical storm.
So you just have to wield it properly.
The power of a high-ranking demon lord.
Even though.
How did you think of using the demon king’s power?
If anyone asks, I have no choice but to share my experiences.
It was because I had witnessed it during the battle against the demon king the other day.
The reason why countless demons risked their lives to sit on the throne.
rank.
Even if others don’t know, Grandfel probably won’t understand. You might say coldly that all devils are the same devil, and that it makes no sense that such a class exists for an inferior race.
But I, Lee Ho-yeol, know.
was just a game.
Thanks to playing Arcana Continent Electric.
‘If you occupy the throne, you will be promoted to a boss monster.’
There is a gap between normal monsters and named monsters. It is safe to say that the gap between such named monsters and boss monsters is dozens to hundreds of times.
That’s why dozens to hundreds of players cling to boss monster raids. Even if it’s the same level, if the modifier [Boss] is added, the dimension is different.
It was the same in the days when there were seventy-two thrones. Then, now that only ten thrones exist. If he takes the throne, what level of elevation will the new demon king achieve?
As a party, I was thinking of testing it.
Shuk.
Gently raise your hand. Building magic does not manifest. Like Mary, I drew pure magical power. It means that pure magic was manifested.
oh oh
As I said, the total amount of my horsepower is absurdly low.
Even if the 150th level increase level is close to 1,000 (一千).
[Muscle strength] [Agility] Even the points invested in [Luck] were not small.
‘Although I can use the magic of twilight too.’
He also learned how to handle the magic of twilight over his shoulder. It’s not about being humble, it’s really what Mary learned from peeking at Jesse when she was educating her, right?
Common sense.
If my pure magic and Mary’s pure magic collide, it’s a hundred if a hundred.
It was the law of magic that my side was broken miserably.
however.
The movement of the colliding magic particles was unusual.
No…
can that be considered a clash of magical powers?
“…!”
unilateral crushing.
My magic power was trampling on the magic of twilight.
As if the ‘gyeok’ is different.
The magic of twilight was not even allowed to approach.
Mary makes a noise.
“…How do you get this magical power?”
water and oil.
They do not mix with each other, so there is no impact of collision.
But as water lays down and oil floats up.
In my magical power and the magical power of twilight, there was an order that could not be countered.
Mary murmured.
“More pure magic than the magic of twilight…?”
A descendant of the pure-blooded magic clan of Twilight.
The twilight magic and mana that they only use was the original magic itself. However, it was clear that the magic power I emitted now was superior to that twilight magic power in the hierarchy.
I chanted calmly.
“Because they are different.”
It’s obvious, but I didn’t mean to be proud.
It was only thanks to the fact that he had risen in rank by taking the tenth seat.
I swallow my appetite anew.
‘…Really like Lee Ho-yeol.’
This time, too, it was a desperate struggle.
But I didn’t overlook it.
Why is the demon king called the demon king?
Because he is the king of demons, he is called the Demon King.
If my mental strength had been shaken even a little…
‘I would have been taken by the seniors of hell by now.’
However, Grandfell’s mental head was with me.
Because the devil is an unacceptable entity to Grandfel.
no matter how great
Borrowing the power of a high-ranking demon lord is something that cannot be found in the dictionary of Grand Fel.
Because I believed in Grandfell’s shit stubbornness.
I was successful in cutting it out.
evil.
Thanks to you, I got it in my hands.
‘By the way, I use the same Ma character in magic.’
The throne of pure demons.
soo oh
I looked at the magical energy that shimmered in my body. I experienced the efficiency of magic that was different from the class. I realized. Now you really have grown to a level where you can’t really give excuses for your magical powers, Hoyeol-ah.
“There is no room for response.”
Mary opened her mouth.
I nodded.
Mary was right.
The magic of twilight has completely stopped flowing. Since I couldn’t move, it meant that I couldn’t reach the manifestation process. We were just exchanging sums. Mary seemed to have realized that fact.
‘I lived.’
When I took a deep breath, I began to see the scenery around me.
To be precise, I began to read the ‘atmosphere’ around me.
To be clear, this was definitely something to be proud of.
‘Because I succeeded in cutting out and using the evil from the power of the high-ranking demon king.’
In a word, it means that he succeeded in sucking only the sweet water.
However, the atmosphere was unusual.
When I looked around…
there were not enough trees.
Even the bushes of the earth bow their heads toward me.
By analogy.
‘Aren’t you really looking at me like some kind of demon lord?!’
At that point I realized.
[Inherent atmosphere].
Was this the effect of the stat [Charm]?
To put it simply, it was directing ability.
It’s a unique atmosphere that comes from charm.
I was really making others see me as a demon lord.
I looked at Rust, the red jewel on the jacket of the dawn.
‘Such an unpleasant effect…!’
Even if you don’t, it’s burdensome enough to use the Granfell style of speech that sets the mood unnecessarily.
‘I’m very afraid.’
What kind of synergy of speech and atmosphere will result.
It was the moment I swallowed my saliva.
A sudden sound is heard.
dump.
When I moved my gaze, Mary knelt.
He knelt in front of me and bowed his head.
Then he speaks in a trembling voice.
“Mary, the Witch of the South Sea.”
I knew it would be like this…
“Meet the true demon king.”
No, that’s not the demon king…!
Even if you look like a demon lord because of the atmosphere, here is the proof.
Isn’t there evidence that the natural enemy acknowledged that too?
[Akkshan removes his suspicions from you.]
So you’re not that kind of demon lord?!
