Dark Fantasy Paladin Chapter 185
Episode 185
The most advanced place in the world was, of course, hell. The headquarters of magical engineering. Soaring skyscrapers and floating ships flying between them always decorated the sky. It’s as if they’re trying to show off their advanced technology.
It was the same in every area of Hell Palace.
The world that stretched underground from the first ring to the seventh ring was very brilliant. An advanced civilization occupied the underground.
It was a city created by human suffering.
Every time someone cried, the devil’s resting place glowed more brilliantly. It continues to develop. The evidence was the purple magic that occasionally fell.
A purple fog that colors the Hell Palace hazily. It was good to see it as a sign of prosperity. All devils have been waiting for this phenomenon, but in recent years, they have been inevitably disappointed every time.
Demon energy does not occur naturally.
This is because the pain of the intelligent body has eased. The one who was moaning was actually the devil. It was the abominable white sheep’s fault.
“······So he’s coming down to hell?”
“Are you sure. “Wherever you go, that’s all you talk about.”
The servants living in the Dark Castle in the first ring also heard rumors about Baekyang. If it had reached the ears of those low-level demons, everyone in the Hell Palace would have already heard the story about the White Sheep Appearance.
“If it’s true, it’s not the time to be distracted.”
“Are you going to run away? But where?”
“Towards the exit…”
The exit was located in the first ring. It was fortunate for the servants residing in the Dark Castle. Because it was relatively close. If you run right away, you will get there quickly.
“It’s meaningless. “There’s a human army waiting outside.”
A large army numbering more than 300,000 people surrounded the entire snow country. Their primary goal was simple. Slaughtering an escaped demon. No malicious intent could escape the encirclement.
“······But it’s still better than Baekyang.”
I would rather die at the hands of humans than be with the omnipotent who goes into fits of rage at the sight of the devil.
“It depends on what you think. Are you going? “It’s already so crowded that there won’t even be room to step.”
It was true. The exit was very crowded. Demons who could not accept reality were still struggling.
“Are you not going?”
“The result is obvious, so why buy it and go through the trouble? “I will just stay here.”
“But…”
There was no right answer. Hell palace ministers also failed to come up with a solution. Several cabinet meetings were held, but no consensus was reached.
“Don’t hesitate and if you want to go, go quickly. “The front door will be opened soon.”
Just as the servant was unable to do this or that, a new voice interrupted.
“The Cabinet decided to respect the freedom of residents. “Be sure to think carefully before making a decision.”
Demon Dragon Drenia. He was the first apocalypse of the Apocalypse and the demon king of the first ring of the Hell Palace. At the same time, he was the lord of the Dark Castle.
Its purple eyes stared intently at the two servants.
The servants immediately fell to the floor.
“See the oldest source.”
The two children lowered their eyes because it was difficult to look straight ahead. This is because the upper covering the demon dragon’s legs gave off a black sheen. My eyes were so dazzling.
The demon dragon opened his mouth.
“The months are just around the corner. “Don’t miss the timing.”
Moon (斋月) meant the time when the Hell Palace vomited out demons. It usually goes around every 20 years, but there isn’t much left now. If you miss this month, you’ll have to wait a while again. No, it might be the last chance to escape.
The two servants spoke at the same time.
“I can only appreciate your compassionate consideration.”
The demon dragon took another step. As I passed them, I opened my mouth.
“And I’m not forcing it, so just bear with it.”
The servants pricked up their ears. Demon Dragon’s advice was always very helpful.
“The White Sheep is falling. Think carefully and then decide.”
The demon dragon who said that escaped the darkness. The destination was the Hall of Origin. The final cabinet meeting is held there.
*
The Hall of Origin was the origin of all evil. All demons born here are recorded as the end of the Apocalypse. A total of one hundred demons. Among them, the fiftieth apocalypse served as a cabinet minister in the Hell Palace.
That was usually the case. Occasionally exceptional cases arose, Murciela and Cadaq being perhaps the most suitable examples.
Parasitic, a natural born of the Demon Lord, once served as Prime Minister of the Gyu-Hwan Realm and Minister of Great White Yang of the Hell Palace. Archmage Kadak was the Minister of Magic.
He was now out of power. Because both were branded traitors.
A shout erupted from somewhere in the Hall of Origin.
“We need to secure new recruits for the parasites!”
It was one of the seats crowded against the red wall.
shouted from the other side.
“That’s right! “Let’s take out this anger by tearing him to pieces!”
Murciela’s betrayal inflicted fatal damage on the Demon Lord. The demons had no choice but to be angry at him. You will have to take responsibility.
one of the sources shouted.
“Lord Cromwell! Did Baekyang allow Murciela’s execution?”
The eyes of the sources were focused on one place. I looked at the three floating demonic seats.
The source of obsession, Cromwell, the source of sloth, Fifiman, the source of hatred, Diablo. A total of three demons were located in the center of the cylindrical interior.
Cromwell swallowed his voice.
“It wasn’t the atmosphere for that.”
Baekyang, whom I met in Heaven, treated the demon gods as very lowly. There was no room for bargaining or compromise.
The sources gritted their teeth.
“······You should have asked for that much.”
I can’t say that because I haven’t seen the white sheep. If you bring a seeker of destruction to this place, a cabinet member or something else will be desperate to beg for his life.
Papiman said.
“I’ll suggest it later.”
“O origin of sloth, don’t you always procrastinate like that? Let’s just ignore this matter…”
Before he could finish his sentence, a low voice interrupted.
“Know fractions. “Who do you dare preach to?”
Occupying the widest space on the wall was the demon dragon Drenia.
The source who was expressing his dissatisfaction could no longer open his mouth. Because the Demon Dragon was the highest-ranking devil in name and reality. If humanity had paladins, demons had Draenia.
Everyone looked at him.
The demon dragon opened his mouth.
“Everyone has forgotten their priorities. Was Murciela on the agenda for today?”
I really liked the traitor thing. There was no more urgent issue than dealing with Baekyang.
Cromwell said, chewing his lips.
“The reality of Hana Drenia is very clear. “We have no way to confront Baekyang.”
Only Poppy nodded.
“It’s gotten too big.”
Draenia let out a calm voice.
“you’re right. Baiyang’s force is virtually omnipotent.”
Cromwell sighed.
“Yes, the meeting has no meaning. “It’s nothing more than killing time.”
Drenia narrowed her eyes.
“Are you going to give up? “The fate of the entire race is at stake.”
“Didn’t you say it with your own mouth? “Baekyang’s force is omnipotent.”
Drenia nodded.
“It certainly is. “What if we don’t fight at all?”
A look of puzzlement flashed across everyone’s expressions.
Papiman asked.
“You mean we don’t fight?”
“That’s literally it. We don’t need to confront the white sheep. “No matter how almighty a force is, its value will fade if there is no opponent to fight with.”
Cromwell frowned.
“I can’t understand at all.”
Draenia smiled slightly.
“It’s simple. “Let us open the bottomless pit.”
The bottomless pit was an abyss located in the deepest part of hell. A pit deeper than the 7th ring. The door there has never been opened for infinite years.
The sources were agitated.
Someone spoke cautiously.
“Demon King, have you forgotten the Creator’s prophecy?”
The binder left only one revelation.
– Do not open the abyss. All malice in hell will be destroyed.
Drenia smiled peacefully.
“Of course I remember.”
Because it was bound by prohibition, no demon could reveal the revelation. Even drinking alcohol was impossible.
“But how…”
“Think about it. “What would happen if there were only white sheep left in hell?”
Iden, who appeared in hell in a demonized state, will be completely destroyed according to the revelation of the Blessed One.
There seemed to be some possibility.
The sources began to exchange opinions.
Cromwell was the first to speak.
“I roughly understood it. Aren’t there too many variables? First of all, the revelation itself does not specify a specific method.”
When the abyss is opened, all malice in hell disappears. That was all the information was. No one knows how to erase it.
Cromwell added:
“It is also only a prophecy of the Creator. I doubt it will come true. “The white sheep and the Creator are clear above and below.”
When God prophecies, it usually comes true.
Not now. The situation was very different.
A higher god gets caught up in the revelations of a lower god? In a way, it was impossible. Just as a human fortune teller cannot dare to predict the fate of a god.
The demon dragon nodded.
“I know. “The white sheep will not disappear.”
“Then what is it?”
“We can put you in hell.”
“It’s hard to get a feel for it.”
The demon dragon stood up and glanced at the sources. Then he slowly opened his mouth.
“Everyone, listen carefully. The opening of the abyss is nothing more than a gimmick. “It’s just a stepping stone for our origins to escape.”
So he started explaining his plan.
In short, it was a trap.
As the month begins and the exit from the Hell Palace opens, the Cabinet also summons Baekyang to Hell.
From then on, I had to take my time. We must somehow hold out until the month ends and the Hell Palace closes. If it was successful, it was time to get the timing right.
The abyss will have to be opened immediately.
Some sort of cleaning will begin. Taking advantage of the confusion, the origins will escape hell.
Only Poppy, who was listening, narrowed his eyebrows.
“Do you know the side effects? The devil may lose eternity.”
There is a high probability that it will be so.
This is because the revelation that all malice in hell would be extinguished could easily be interpreted as meaning that the palace of hell would no longer conceive new demons.
The demon dragon let out a calm voice.
“I can’t help it. “To avoid the white sheep, we must create a shadow with our blood.”
Demons, like other living creatures, will continue to pass through generations only through reproduction. It didn’t matter. It was better than a future where I would be with Baekyang forever.
Cromwell swallowed his sleep and said.
“In the end, only the origins of this place will escape.”
A sacrifice was needed to pass the time. If the devil’s plan goes according to the devil’s plan, the devils of hell will take over that role. Of course, the sources were excluded.
“That’s right. To borrow a phrase from humans, it is a noble sacrifice. As long as our origins persist, demons can be eternal. “Our compatriots will die a glorious death for the cause.”
Although feasible, Papiman remained skeptical.
“Outside, humans are forming a siege and extermination line. “Is there any way to break through?”
The demon dragon raised his mouth with a grin.
“The groundwork has already been laid.”
Beatrice, the Virgin of Punishment. I was thinking of using her. The work had been completed.
The demon dragon opened his mouth.
“Now do you all agree?”
No one was quick to answer.
Could there be any other sharp number? Even after thinking about it, I couldn’t think of a way.
Demon Dragon, who was observing the atmosphere, drew an arc.
“Then shall we summon Baekyang? I made you wait for too long for the Supreme Goddess. “It’s blasphemous.”
The demon dragon clapped his hands.
The dwarf devils approached, carrying the seat of hypocrisy.
