Regressing with the King’s Power - Chapter 239

Episode 239:

The castles of the great dukes located at various points in the deepest layer.

Among them, Beelzebub’s Castle was a place where even SSS-level monsters could not easily set foot due to its poison and fraud.

It is now a place that no one has been able to invade for a long time.

Crrrrr.

It was falling apart like never before.

In the center, Beelzebub’s purple magic power, Igmun’s blood red magic power, and Taehyun’s dark red magic power were all mixed together.

[These… insignificant things…!!]

Beelzebub, who repelled Taehyun’s predation and had half his body blown away by Igmun’s blood sword, shouted.

How dare you cause such a ruckus in your own castle?

Even if one of them was the Archduke, it was a situation that he would never have allowed under normal circumstances.

However.

Ugh. Ugh.

I was annoyed by the dark red magic power that was trying to devour me without stopping.

It’s actually not difficult to break it.

only.

[King…]

The face of a huge being that I had forgotten kept coming back to me.

Is it because I haven’t completely overcome it yet?

Or is it because of the increasingly powerful power of predation?

Every time a predator tried to devour my body, I flinched without realizing it.

Igmun’s blood sword pierced through without missing the opportunity.

Suddenly.

One of the carefully crafted blood swords cut off one of Beelzebub’s wings.

[It’s being cut down like an insect!!]

Igumoon, who was rarely excited, burst into laughter and shouted.

Just a little while ago, I assumed defeat.

The current situation, which had been reversed, drove him crazy.

Igumoon glanced at Taehyeon, who was controlling the predator from afar.

It wasn’t like this when I saw it in ‘Temple of Blood’.

key.

Kim Tae-hyun has grown incomparably since then.

Of course, it’s a new blood compared to that ‘monster-like’ guy I saw in the world of images.

Still, for now, it was enough power to unite with him and push Beelzebub.

[Beelzebub. I’ll take at least half of your body today!!]

Igmun boasted and raised his magic power.

Sreung. Sreung. Sreung. Sreung.

Hundreds of blood tests were made all over the place.

Each one contains the power to blow away SSS grade monsters.

Taehyun, who was maintaining the summoning of Igmun, swallowed his sleep from the pain burning his brain.

Beelzebub also did not sit still and watch.

Puhwaaaak.

The poison that had spread everywhere became thicker.

The magical energy in the space began to dissolve in the miasma.

Fazizik. Pajijijik.

Just by demonstrating the technology, sparks fly and cracks appear.

gulp.

Taehyun swallowed his saliva instinctively.

‘This… shouldn’t get caught up in it.’

Taehyun, who canceled the predation, used the skill once again.

Tiring.

[Skill Energy Drain (S) has been activated.]

Sigh. Continue.

Just by absorbing the magic power spread throughout the area for a brief moment, over 400 magic power was filled.

‘Apocalypse cannot withstand this space even if it is used. Then…’

The optimal skills to survive in this chaos came to mind.

Tiring.

[The eye of the higher-ranking skill (S) has been strengthened. Magic consumption accelerates.]

[Skill Demonization (S) has been activated. Specify the mimicry part.]

[Skill Dark Apostle (S) has been activated. The form has been specified.]

Strengthen the ‘higher species eyes’ once again to see the flow of magical power.

Increase your physical strength by growing your body with ‘Demonization’.

He made a shield using the ‘Apostle of Darkness’ to protect himself.

and.

I strengthened my body once again using ‘Stone Skin’ and White Wolf’s ‘Golden Steel’.

It was the best defense Taehyun could do right now.

Just then an explosion occurred.

Cheeeeeeeek.

Wow.

Beelzebub’s magic melted his body, and Igmun’s magic took away his life force.

The flesh, muscles, and bones melted and regenerated repeatedly.

Taehyun held on to his senses in the pain of being torn apart.

* * *

The castle collapsed in the explosion.

It was a season where they could tear each other apart, but the two grand dukes were not satisfied with just that.

Slurp.

Igmun touched the newly held blood sword.

As it was formed with one’s own blood, its power contained a power that could not be compared to others.

It was the same with Beelzebub.

Quad deuk.

He pulled out a bone sprouting from the reptilian body.

Kkwajik. Kkwajik. Kkwajik.

Every time the two weapons collided, an eerie sound rang out.

These are two grand dukes who have lived for a long time.

The two archdukes, who had fallen into a trance after a long battle, came to their senses.

This was when Beelzebub lost two wings and Igmun, who had no castle advantage, lost both arms.

Cheeeee.

Beelzebub’s burning poison interfered with Igmun’s ultra-fast regeneration.

Puff poop poop.

Beelzebub’s fingernails dug into various parts of Igmun’s body.

Victory was finally upon us.

[Hang your neck and wait patiently. I will come find you.]

Beelzebub spoke as if commanding.

[Hehehe. That’s too much bravado. If you are going to come, come.]

At that time.

The two grand dukes, who were mocking each other, felt something strange.

Igmun turned his head.

It wasn’t visible.

Beelzebub expanded his spirit.

I didn’t feel it.

A human who should be here.

The key to creating the current situation.

The existence of Kim Tae-hyun.

[….]

[….]

It was about a minute after Taehyun left the castle.

* * *

Ssssssut.

dump.

Taehyun, who suddenly rose from the ground as the ‘Apostle of Darkness’, stumbled and hit the ground.

The sand of the Abyss was captured.

‘Did he escape?’

It was hard to believe that we were in Beelzebub’s castle just a moment ago.

Taehyun looked around.

‘Apostle of Darkness’ is a place where darkness resides.

Among them, long-distance movements, such as places out of sight, could not be moved unless they had been marked in advance.

The place Taehyun marked was the place where they first played games in Beelzebub’s territory.

I said so.

“Did I fail?”

From the looks of it, it seemed like they moved to another place midway due to poor condition.

This is when Taehyun tries to use ‘Energy Drain’ to explore his surroundings.

Throbbing.

I grabbed my head and hit the floor again, feeling the pain pierce my brain.

This happened because Igmun’s summoning was maintained.

However, it was difficult to cancel the summons.

Ig-moon had to hold out while Tae-hyeon completely escaped from this place.

“Please buy me more time.”

I grabbed my throbbing head and stood up.

Beelzebub’s torn off arm was held in his hand.

Taehyun took what had been torn away by Igumoon before he ran away.

Since I lost the potion bottle containing Beelzebub’s blood, which was my original purpose, I brought it out with the feeling that it was a chicken instead of a pheasant.

Chi profit. Chii Iik.

Taehyun’s body was being swallowed up simply by holding it.

It is a completely different poison than the one Beelzebub used to inject through his fingernails.

If the hand he was holding had not been surrounded by magic power, he would have been swallowed up right away.

Tiring.

[Skill Energy Drain (S) has been activated.]

Sigh. Continue.

Taehyun absorbed magical energy for a brief moment.

With that alone, the magic power depleted by using the skill was quickly replenished.

That’s not all.

[A huge amount of magical energy has seeped into me. Magic power increases by 1.]

Stats increase even though it was only absorbed briefly?

I wanted to feast on it right away, but it was difficult until a vaccine for gray disease was developed.

Taehyun grabbed his pounding head and used the next skill.

* * *

At that time, Rosaria was trampling on one of Beelzebub’s territories.

This is because he knew that Taehyun would draw Beelzebub’s attention towards him.

It was also an action encouraged by Taehyun, who claimed to be the bait.

Beelzebub’s family, who were about to die, said obvious lines.

[Lord Beelzebub… four years….]

[Shut your mouth.]

Pup pup puk.

Rosaria’s tentacle was stuck in the monster’s body.

Purseoseok.

He was a fairly useful member of Beelzebub’s family, and by Taehyun’s standards, he could be called an SSS-level monster.

The monster, which had lost all its magic in an instant, passed away.

[Hmm. It’s quite a sweet magic power.]

[Caughter. The Queen’s skin has gotten better.]

[Caught. Queen, our skin has improved too.]

[Queen, is this ours now? [Caw.]

The succubi, grand succubus, succubus knight, and grand succubus knights who moved with her burst into laughter.

The victory in this battle resulted in rapid growth.

[you idiot. We don’t have the strength to defend this place. Caught.]

[I see. Caught.]

[That’s right. Let’s go back now.]

[Crackling. I understand.]

[Everyone, get ready. [Cawling.]

As I watched the retreating succubi, Taehyun came to mind.

She had fewer SSS-level subordinates than other archdukes.

Even they are scattered and unable to move as they are protecting a small area.

It is because of Taehyun that she, who is considered the weakest of the archdukes, can fight a turf war so boldly.

After being chosen by the king, he suddenly became strong enough to be similar to the children who were her highest descendants.

[Hmm. It takes quite a bit more time than that… I’m sure the contractor wasn’t caught.]

Taehyun is a hero who turned the tables.

The opponent is the Archduke.

The Grand Duke’s castle is a place where it is difficult to survive if you attack alone.

The specialness of the king’s power and Taehyeon’s movement skills.

Even considering the fact that Beelzebub was traumatized by the king, it was an incredibly dangerous plan.

Taehyun was the one pushing forward with that dangerous plan without any hesitation.

[Queen!! I’m ready to go back!!]

A Grand Succubus approached and reported.

[okay. Let’s go.]

It’s time for a group of hundreds of succubi to move.

Quaaaaaaaaa.

In an instant, a gate was created in front of her.

[This…]

The magic power emanating from the gate clearly belonged to the demon race.

It is also a deep magical power that can only be felt in the body of Beelzebub, not the faint energy possessed by its descendants.

[Step back!!]

Rosaria ordered her subordinates.

If the opponent is Beelzebub, his men will be annihilated in an instant.

No one but himself can deal with Beelzebub.

This is the moment when her tentacles, surrounded by purple magical power, are about to bombard the gate.

Beelzebub.

Or at the gate where he thought his highest ranking member would come out first.

A small human appeared.

It was Taehyun holding Beelzebub’s arm.

[Contractor?]

“You came to the right place this time.”

Taehyun said that and sat down.

I had to use the ‘portal’ more than ten times to get here.

Both arms had already become demon-type monsters due to the parts of Beelzebub’s body they were holding.

Rosaria looked at Taehyun’s appearance, which had changed since he left.

From that alone, it was easy to guess what had happened.

[Has the goal been achieved?]

“Ah. “I brought this as I was in a hurry.”

Taehyun said, holding up Beelzebub’s arm.

The arm he was holding up to the area around his neck had already discolored purple.

[Yes, you worked hard.]

Percussion.

One of the tentacles knocked off Beelzebub’s arm that Taehyun was holding.

With that alone, Taehyun, freed from his poison, looked much more at ease.

and.

Phew.

Rosaria’s tentacle pierced Taehyun’s abdomen.

“Inhale…”

Taehyun, who had been flinching, soon became limp for a moment before his eyes closed.

Rosaria’s other tentacle wrapped around Taehyeon.

[Get a good rest.]

Rosaria opened the gate leading back to the castle.

14 days had passed since Taehyun left Earth.
