71. The one with a red heart (2)
“I only hope for the safety of the demon world.”
“Who receives Lucifer’s oracle?”
“Why are you really like this?”
“If this person criticizes us, you have to criticize us a little too for the conversation to continue.”
“No, if you flip the poker cards on the mahjong board and find the guy holding the Eight Lights, he’ll come out?”
“I heard that’s surprising.”
“Anyway, I don’t know.”
” really?”
“yes.”
“Then you can’t do it. “I have to kill him.”
” yes?”
“I broke the card and you pretend not to know.”
“…I think it’s not enough as a reason to die, but I think it would be quite unfair to die, right?”
“I’m not sure about Lucifer’s power. I think I’ll count more, but that’s something I don’t know. Among the Four Gods of Death,
Hyun Mu was considerably stronger than the other three. In other words, even transcendent beings are capable of evolution. Even archangels have ranks of strength.”
Alex looked at Deus with confused eyes.
It’s like I can’t understand it at all.
“Honestly, I’m a little scared when that bastard makes moves behind the scenes to kill me. I felt secure when Zeke was around, but now I’m alone. Migo still has a long way to go… and even without a bastard like Scatul. Well, that’s why when I came to the Demon World , I left him behind and told him to
act as a butler in Rosdia .”
“Who is attacking whom from behind the scenes?”
“Lucifer me.”
“My lord.”
“huh?”
“Did you know that living beings have an organ called the brain? That brain. You may get tired and sick easily. Illness is not something to be ashamed of. Wouldn’t it be better if you tried treatment with me?”
“Do you really not know or
are you just pretending not to know?”
“What do you mean?”
“Lucifer.”
“No, I know. He is the great God of our demons, De Miurgos I. He is someone who lives forever in our memories. In this room of memory, His breath…
“Ah, noisy. Just die. it’s bothering.”
“Anyway, aren’t you a nanny? Don’t you think it’s a bit too much to kill someone just because it’s annoying? “Even though he is the devil , there are degrees
of evil deeds .”
“Is there a limit to evil deeds? These days, anything stimulating is always the best. “Don’t you think it would be very provocative if I killed you here?”
“no. Absolutely not. “The reason villains are popular is because of the human agony hidden within them, right?”
“It’s not a fortress. No one cares about shit like that. The one who grabs it, stabs it, and explodes is definitely more popular. So, just die because it’s annoying.”
Alex sighed.
“My lord, you are a powerful being. If you want to kill me, there is nothing I can do to stop you. You have already placed an absolute barrier around you. It is impossible to go out or come in. If you want to kill me, I will kill you. But please listen to this one word.”
“Is this a will?”
“Yes, you can think so.”
“Then try it.”
“Master.”
” huh?”
“Realize order and harmony.”
“Did I say destruction and slaughter incorrectly?”
“It’s also a balance. We are demons. Demons just need to live for the sake of the demons. That is order and harmony. Become a demon lord. Please become a demon king and live for the demon world. “I just hope for that.”
“Did Lucifer teach you this?”
“It’s not an idea that an octopus head would do.”
“While he was still alive, he suffered so much that his silvery hair turned black. He made so many people die and
led each soul into the world of death. Order and harmony. “If it weren’t for that, he would have made a completely different choice.”
“I must have cursed God.”
“I don’t even know his thoughts. “At that time, I was just an octopus head, just like Deus said.”
“Oh, was it really an octopus?”
“They call them cephalopods. Beholders have a lot more legs. It was such an insignificant thing. Through repeated experiments, my legs grew longer, and as my legs stretched,
the sensation increased. More emotion, intelligence, and even magical powers. The person who destroyed the humans who created the magical creatures called Beholders is Lucifer. “He saved my temple, which should have been discarded, and recognized the descendants created from my genes as one race.”
“That’s why I’m asking. “Is it Lucifer and internal pain?”
“If He still lives, I will obey His words. There is no need to use the word ‘internal communication’. “ I have never forgotten him even for a moment
.”
“Octopuses and archangels don’t get along.”
“That love is for God.”
“everyone! “Here is a demon who speaks of love!”
“To the master demons, Lucifer’s name is sacrosanct.”
“Then who is the real God?”
“Lucifer was a messenger from God. He loved God until the moment he died. “If Lucifer is a god, he is also a god to us.”
“You know it’s really awkward because you sound like a saint coming out of your mouth, right?”
“This is the card I have.”
“So you have to die.”
“All right.”
Alex put his knees on the ground and lowered his head.
“It wasn’t necessarily a bad thing that the last master I served was an eccentric like you. The blood flowing through your body also belongs to Lucifer. He used his own blood to create the next Demon King. The bloodline that has been continuously passed down through the Demon King belongs to Lucifer. “If that bloodline takes my life, I will gladly give it.”
“Try again in a moment.”
“Willingly…
“A little further forward.”
“The veins…
“Stop.”
” yes?”
“Oh damn. “What did you think was strange?”
Alex raised his eyes and saw Deus.
“Ma Young-gi’s true position is not that of a warrior, but the light of an angel.”
“What do you mean?”
“What do you think the hero’s position is?”
“What is Jeong-Yeok-Wi?”
“It’s the light of an angel.”
” yes?”
“Ma Ying Qi is a black aura. “We are not opposing each other, but are like brothers.”
“The power used by the Demon King and the Hero is like that of brothers.”
“But aren’t they opposing forces?”
“Originally, brothers are the worst at getting along. lets think. “What do you think was the first thing Lucifer made when he ascended to the throne?”
“No way,
“He’s a hero. So what do you think the blood that the hero has is? Whose fit do you think will be reduced?”
“Probably not.”
“that’s right.”
“Didn’t you see Zeke in person?”
“That kid is only 10% pureblood. So it’s not noticeable. But even that 10 percent is enough to keep up with this fighting genius.”
“Are all criteria based on combat skills?”
“Then, do you think Lucifer paid attention to something other than combat skills when he created the Demon King and the Hero? You take a good look at me. Do you think you will rule well? Are you good at research?”
“You’re good at craving things.”
“Thank you, you rotten bastard.”
“What on earth are you talking about? As I said before, an organ called the brain breaks down quite easily.”
“50% pureblood. How did that figure come about? Conversely, if I test my pure blood, how much will I get? “Shall we go to Seonghwangcheong later and give it a try?”
“…Are you saying that the Demon King and the Hero are of the same blood?”
“The devil is reproducing unisexually. If you think about it, he is a warrior with a high level of pure blood. “It’s not an inversion, it’s like yin and yang of the same power, which is the magic energy and aura.”
“No, that’s okay. “Why should I die?”
“Lucifer is alive.”
“I am one of the seven people who watched his final days.”
“Archangels cannot die.”
“If he takes it away…
“If you really committed a sin, then yes. But
Lucifer has never sinned. I just played a villain for everyone. I’ve never done anything worthy of death, so why would I die? Warrior? What idiot actually dies at the hands of a puppet he created? Would God take away the soul of Lucifer who died like that?”
“I know that you have a great imagination, master, but you have no basis, do you?”
“By whose orders did you wake up Nezar?”
“yes?”
“Don’t act like a fool. Don’t tell me that Nezar was accidentally buried in Zoryx’s basement.
“There must be someone else who buried Nezar underground in Zoryx.”
“What are you talking about? “Isn’t it none other than Usnim who established the castle in Joryx Castle?”
“The place where Nezar was kept was just a small room. You can move it with your strength. Are you going to make fun of this too?”
“Lord, that’s…
“Did you know who Nezar was?”
“I didn’t know. Just say he’s a powerful giant
…
“I’m not lying about this.”
“I serve you with all my heart.”
“I’m looking for Lucifer now.”
“I was just following Mahon’s orders. The Seven Dukes serve the Demon King as their master and must always listen to the Demon Lord’s advice. That is the duty that Lucifer has given us. It is possible that you may mistake Ma Hon for Lucifer… but it is your master’s mistake.”
“Illusion or not, I’m desperate,
right? So, after hearing my secret, there is only one way out. “Either die or cooperate.”
“do you want to die?”
“Is this a game for several years?”
” huh?”
“Isn’t it like playing a merchant? “I did it before when I went to the human world.”
“Well, I’m just doing it because I’m bored, so I can’t necessarily say no.”
“Please answer just one question.”
“One more thing?”
“What do you plan to do with the Demon World
? “Please tell me what your true thoughts are.”
“I made a bet with Migo a few days ago.”
“Bet… you mean?”
“I will protect the demon world if I complete DS-Irae.”
“So?”
“I lost.”
“I heard demons have no choice but to be defeated by humans?”
“You said the demons would lose, but I never said I would lose?”
“Lord
“You have to teach this to the humans. “How good are the demons
at deceiving?” Alex bowed his head to Deus
.
“Please save the Demon World.”
“Are you saying you will be loyal to me?”
“I have never been disloyal to my lord
.”
“Then sign this document.”
“It’s an oath of absolute loyalty.”
“The moment I want you to die
. “Wherever you are and whatever you are doing.”
“All right.”
Alex quietly
signed the document Deus showed him.
If I could save the demon world, I could at least sell my soul to the devil.
Although he was a devil himself.
The North Gate falls.
For the first time, I was shocked by the city of 10,000 towers.
It was something that only happened in the 666th century.
The demons despaired and the humans cheered.
The Zodiac Knights drove their horses at the forefront of the army.
At the same time, messengers from each unit began running toward their home country.
It was to convey the news that the North Gate of Eidos, the capital of the Demon World, had been obtained.
Now, there are only a few days left to pass before final victory.
There was no one who was not excited.
Even slaves.
They had nothing to gain from this war.
Not a single piece of land or a single penny is picked up.
Nevertheless, they too were excited by the joy of victory. It was as
if killing demons
was an instinct.
After the northern gate was destroyed, the demons escaped from the northern streets like the ebb of the tide.
He chased after his father as if he was enjoying it. Like a wild dog chasing its prey.
