Dark Fantasy Paladin Chapter 187
Episode 187
Silence fell in the hall of hell’s origin.
It was because of Aiden’s first words. A warning not to do anything. Is it just a glance? Somehow it didn’t seem like it.
It seemed like they had already figured out the plan.
Aiden’s calm tone of voice caused such anxiety.
The demon dragon was the first to open his mouth.
“It’s difficult to understand what you said or what you meant. What do you mean not to do?”
Aiden took a step forward. I approached the guy and tilted my head back.
It was a demon dragon the size of a house, so even Iden, who was huge, could not help but look up at it.
“It’s a futile struggle, so stop.”
“We just”
Iden tapped the guy’s leg with his toe. It was a light action at first glance, but the reaction was different than expected.
The impact made a loud noise. Debris and black blood flew everywhere. The demon dragon lost his balance and fell to the ground.
“What are you doing!”
Drenia tries to get up again. Aiden would not tolerate it. Immediately, I grabbed the guy’s butt and pushed him down to the floor.
The demon dragon became as unsightly as a chewing gum.
Aiden said calmly.
“Is it an incarnation?”
Draenia was here as an incarnation that looked exactly like her true self. Although it was a well-made fake, it was difficult to escape Iden’s vibe.
The stinging demon dragon lowered his gaze.
Iden opened his mouth.
“You rolled your head. “Okay, let’s hear what a perfect plan it is.”
After saying that, Aiden immediately put his hand into his Danjeon. The magic core was extracted. Immediately after, all divine powers returned to their original positions.
The demon god of hypocrisy was reborn as a ghost of heavenly light.
A terrible feeling descended upon the hall.
The demonic energy in the air began to dissolve and sublimate into divinity. Sources of seizures. No demon could be calm. Vomit poured out here and there. Screams erupted and voices begging for life continued.
The same was true for Iden, who was troubled. This is because the seeker of destruction sensed all evil. If I followed my instinct, I should have built everything, but I somehow suppressed my desire.
Iden lifted the tip of the demon dragon’s chin.
He said, looking straight into the guy’s purple eyes.
“Tell me, devil. “What have you got in store for me?”
Baekyang’s words were now the causal law and prohibition of the world. No one could resist it. Even for a mortal, it was impossible to resist even for a moment.
The demon dragon’s mouth opened wide. The guy stuttered with a shocked expression.
“I have no intention of harming you. It’s true. I just wanted to escape the Hell Palace. “Use all the demons here as a stepping stone.”
Cromwell, who was groaning in despair, shouted in a sharp voice.
“All demons!”
Iden has gained divinity and status.
Only then were the sources freed from their terrible suffering. Some were already dead.
Iden gestured to the demon dragon. It seems like he wants me to keep explaining.
Draina, unable to defy the command, opened her mouth with a pained face.
“I tricked the cow. This means that the entire origin of this place was deceived. “Not everyone can escape anyway.”
Iden narrowed his eyes.
“Speak coherently. “I can’t understand at all.”
The demon dragon did not answer to see if he was organizing his thoughts. After a while, I started to chant.
In short, Draenia intended to survive alone by sacrificing all of her people.
No one would agree. Therefore, everyone was fooled.
Opening the abyss to stop time or trapping Baekyang in the palace of hell were all just bullshit.
There was only one goal.
To make Baekyang think that all the demons are gone.
It was an abyss opening for him.
If Midge comes out of the abyss and cleans the hell palace, Iden will no longer care about the problem of demon eternity. I guess I’ll just turn my attention to the entire Demon World. All we had to do was find the hidden demons and stop them. The world will become clean.
At that moment, the demon dragon’s plan is also activated again.
A church that has lost its main enemy, the devil. What is their next goal? It was obvious to anyone who saw it. We will clean the inside. Because we won’t just leave the apostate alone.
Of course, one of the stakes to be erected belonged to Beatrice. As a non-believer, it was difficult for her to avoid being burned at the stake.
As a demon dragon, I was happy. Because the saint’s death will resurrect him. The seed has already been planted in the saint. A nucleus that germinates upon death of the host. Drenia will live as the only devil in a world where all devils have disappeared.
It might be lonely at first, but it didn’t really matter.
Since the Demon Dragon is a hermaphrodite, he just needs to rebuild his clan. As the original form of the devil, he may be reborn as a demon god in the future.
Even if it took hundreds or thousands of years, Draenia was willing to endure it. All it took was enough time to save up strength. Someday, I will be able to bring out the white sheep.
The absurd illusion was shattered in an instant.
I ended up saying it all with my own mouth.
The sources who were listening began to become angry.
Cromwell howled in a voice that seemed to swallow a sword.
“Drenia you bastard! “How could you betray me!”
Papiman was also trembling.
“This is why I defended the parasite. The dogs who bite the owner. ”
The demon dragon shouted desperately.
“Is there any other way! If you’re going to live like livestock, you have to do something! “I couldn’t live with a white sheep!”
Deadly gazes were directed at Draenia. The demon dragon looked around like a cornered dog.
“You’re noisy, traitor!”
“Don’t make excuses—!”
“Commit suicide!”
Iden raised his hand to stop the commotion.
“Close everything.”
Silence came immediately. The sound of teeth grinding could be heard intermittently.
Iden looked down at the demon dragon.
“That was an interesting idea. But what if Beatrice isn’t burned at the stake?”
If the saint repented or avoided the trial, the demon dragon’s plan would be in vain. This is because seeds cannot be maintained indefinitely. By the time the saint died while enjoying her life, the core in her body would have disappeared with time.
Drenia said in a weak voice.
“…She has already been branded an apostate. “You will never be pardoned.”
Aiden frowned slightly.
“I don’t take someone’s life just because they distrust Baekyang.”
There was absolutely no intention to persecute life for religious reasons. Because Aiden was different from Bacheksar. We must never repeat the mistakes of the sun.
Only sincerity, not blood and pain, should lead to faith.
The demon dragon cautiously opened his mouth.
“If the apostate’s actions result in unnecessary sacrifices, can you say that to Baekyang?”
“What sacrifice are you talking about?”
The demon dragon stared straight at Aiden.
“A human being tricked by Beatrice crossed over to the continent. To raise an army. The goal is the ecliptic.”
Several families came to Iden’s mind. The Marquis of Sacillier, Count Carchois, Count Nedval, Viscount Gervain, etc. They were all families where the influence of the lord played a greater role than the authority of the imperial family. They believed in other gods and either converted to Varancheism or were driven out of power in central politics. Or, it had power comparable to that of the imperial family.
Aiden said.
“It must be Nedval.”
“you’re right.”
Although they are the family that produced the hero Euron, their religion was not originally Baranches. Dedicated to the god of plunder. It was a very ancient story. The pirate Nedval family. That legacy remained weak.
Nedbal’s collaterals who remain in the southern part of the continent are most likely non-believers. Yurain is probably planning to use them.
The demon dragon opened his mouth.
“He left last night. Since we went on a floating boat, we can’t catch up. “The continent will shed unnecessary blood.”
Aiden let out a calm voice.
“Why are you telling me this?”
It is probably not our intention to discuss the judgment of apostates.
The demon dragon looked closely and opened his mouth.
“······I can stop it.”
Yurein, who was already dead, was nothing more than a scarecrow powered by the power of the demon dragon.
He could have taken his last breath at any time.
Iden nodded.
“Then make it stop.”
The demon dragon’s plan has already collapsed. Making Beatrice and Jurein traitors meant nothing to him anymore.
The demon dragon said.
“······Instead, there are conditions.”
Aiden laughed.
“You don’t know me.”
I had no intention of compromising with the devil.
The demon dragon noticed the atmosphere and quickly shouted.
“You won’t shed a single ounce of blood. My condition… No, my request is simple. Please save my life. “That’s enough.”
In other words, it meant protecting them from demons. Cromwell’s expression was unusual from a while ago. There was a high probability of killing the demon dragon.
Iden shook his head.
“I have no part in your life.”
Then I looked at the three people who drank.
“Take care of it.”
The demon dragon screamed.
“Now wait a minute! “It’s okay if the emperor dies…”
“I don’t think the Heresy Inquisition will know Yurein’s whereabouts.”
“You’re overconfident! “The humans believe Yurein is dead!”
Iden closed his eyes.
Dropped a revelation to Xerath.
【Eurein.】
No further sentences were composed.
A prayer was immediately heard.
It was Xerath’s voice, but the reception quality was poor, perhaps because it was hell. I couldn’t understand it at all.
Just the tone of voice felt weak. It was very peaceful. You will be preparing in your own way. Aiden had no doubt.
“You’ll find out soon.”
After saying that, he returned to his seat and sat down.
I was lost in thought for a moment. I thought about the conversation with the demon dragon. You were trying to empty hell? According to common sense, this was impossible. There was a need to check separately.
The task at hand took priority now.
Iden looked at Cromwell.
“How long until the next month?”
“Less than an hour left.”
Iden nodded and glanced at the sources.
“You die as soon as you leave the hall. “Other than that, feel free.”
Iden could not release these high-ranking demons into the real world. No matter how much the Continental Army prepared an extermination force, it was difficult to eradicate them all. Obviously, humanity will also shed a lot of blood.
Sacrifices must be minimized.
He sank into the throne and closed his eyes.
I’ll have to endure this stench for a while. Honestly, the future was bleak. I suddenly felt nostalgic for the time I spent on the continent.
Of course I was busy back then, but it was much better than now. Maybe it was because my family and colleagues were by my side. There was no one around him now.
To think like this. It looks like his mental power has been exhausted. Iden invested a lot more stats into mental power.
Nothing in particular changed. Abilities that were already above their limit did not grow with this level of investment. Would it be meaningful to pump water into the sea?
A fundamental solution was needed. I wanted to rest a little.
The demons looked at Iden, who had closed his eyes.
They didn’t know what to do. We just looked at each other.
“I…”
When someone opened their mouth, their head exploded.
Aiden said.
“Let’s add a ban. Even if you talk to me, you will die.”
I didn’t want to talk to the devil.
