Regressing with the King’s Power - Chapter 625

Part 2 Episode 41

“….”

I became conscious.

at the same time.

Pain flooded me.

The pain is severe, as if every bone in my body has been broken.

“Ugh…”

The demon sword groaned and opened its eyes.

I saw a red sky without a single star.

“Have you come to your senses?”

Taehyun, who was chewing dried fish next to him, opened his mouth.

“This place…”

“It’s about a day away from the territory of the Demonic Beast Tribe. “I ran with it on my back, but it didn’t move as fast.”

That means he was unconscious for a day.

As I tried to remember what had happened, my head felt like it was going to explode.

“Arthur. Because the wound has not fully recovered yet. Because I went wild, I broke things here and there. “It would be bothersome if it ran out of control again while moving, so I drained some of the magic power.”

“….”

The sound of spit passing over Mokuldae is particularly loud.

Although he said it casually, he was saying that he assaulted him right before he died.

“You looked unsightly.”

“How can something be ugly and still be alive?”

Taehyun said and stood up.

Tuk.

I put my hand on the ghost sword’s head.

sssss-.

Controlled magic flowed in for a moment until dark red magic bloomed.

and.

The ghost’s body began to recover quickly.

Although it is not enough to be called ultra-fast regeneration, it is comparable to the regenerative ability of other high-end species.

“It seems like you have now become a complete higher species.”

“….”

It was only for a moment that the ghost sword’s eyes wavered at Taehyeon’s words.

“It was something I was prepared to do.”

“okay. “You have to have that kind of attitude to be able to handle being a saint.”

“Don’t mock.”

“No, I’m serious.”

Taehyun chuckled and shook his hands.

What can conquer madness is a stronger power.

‘Someday this guy will realize it too.’

“Now let’s move slowly. “If you delay, you will be followed.”

“What happened?”

“It’s nothing special. “There was a conflict between monsters nearby.”

“…?”

“I think some of the top species were involved. “It’s not clear because of the distance, but… it seems like something has changed between the monsters on the fourth floor.”

“Is it an illusion that the change seems to be related to us?”

Taehyun grinned at the ghost’s words.

“Probably not.”

The ghost sword sighed heavily.

‘Where on earth does this confidence come from?…’

It’s been a while since I gave up trying to understand Kim Tae-hyun.

This is because I feel that if I try to understand, my entire common sense will be shaken.

Still, I couldn’t help but feel shaken every time something like this happened.

“There will be movement from the demon tribe and the demon beast tribe. Probably invading Igmun’s territory. “If I poke around in a few more places, I’ll be able to figure out where Igmun’s territory is.”

“I guess I’ll have to move carefully so as not to be noticed…”

Taehyun smiled again at the sight of the ghost sword’s cowering appearance.

‘I would like to imitate Rosaria’s power, but…’

Unfortunately, Taehyeon’s mind control skill was not high enough to use it on higher-ranked monsters.

“We have already detected the place where the battle took place. “I think I’ll try moving this way this time.”

Taehyun pointed to a place on the map that was opposite to the direction they had been walking.

“The Sea Current tribe would have formed a force in the Demon Sea…. The next ones most likely to be encountered are the Dream Demon tribe and the Vampire tribe.”

There may have been other species that Taehyun wasn’t aware of, but that wouldn’t be that important.

‘If I had known this would happen, I would have at least asked the dream demon guy for directions.’

Taehyun shook his head.

Even if you think about it now, it is of no help.

It is fate that we will meet Rosaria again anyway.

“Kim Tae-hyun.”

The ghost called Taehyun, who was organizing the place.

“What happens when you become the top species?”

“…?”

“Is it possible for a human body to handle that much magic stone?”

He asks calmly, but there is anxiety in his voice.

“Did you go crazy once and then stop?”

“At the end of your plan. “Am I alive?”

“If anyone hears this, they will think they are trying to eat you.”

“I want you to answer.”

I could feel the determination in the ghost sword’s eyes.

Is it okay to trust Taehyun?

Will I be able to pass on to others what I learned while hiking with Taehyun?

Will I be able to meet the saint again?

His face was a complex mixture of all those worries.

‘okay. You were that kind of guy.’

Even when working as a national power, they put their country’s interests first.

Taehyeon’s weakness was also discovered because of the saint.

For him, surviving and returning to his country would be his biggest goal.

‘Well, I’m just grateful that you keep following me.’

Anyway, if Taehyun doesn’t grow, there is no future in the Three Thousand Worlds.

It was just a shame that I couldn’t tell you that fact.

“The moment you gain the power of the highest species, it will be difficult to say that you are already human.”

“The probability of a runaway….”

“It will be much higher than it is now.”

“….”

“But whatever. do not worry. “Because I know a man who didn’t break down even after acquiring the power of the highest level.”

At Taehyeon’s words, a flame burned in the ghost sword’s eyes.

“Cody Cruz.”

A national powerhouse representing the United States and the No. 1 player in the world.

He was a man who mastered the power of Archduke Lucifer closer to perfection than anyone else.

“Then he too…”

“Well. “I don’t know what it’s like here.”

The ghost sword urged an answer to Taehyun’s ambiguous words.

“There is something like that. But Shinji. “I promise you one thing.”

“Wait a minute, Kim Tae-hyun….”

“I’ll make you confess to the saint.”

“I just… I think I said something dangerous…”

The ghost sword’s face froze at the sudden death flag.

“It’s hard to be scared of someone who will learn high-speed playback in a little while.”

Taehyun patted the ghost sword on the shoulder.

“don’t worry. “Because I won’t let the bad character sleeping inside you die easily.”

When the doppelganger enters subspace, it can use the body of the ghost sword.

This is because he implanted his will into the magic stone.

‘There’s no way I could die easily while that guy is guarding me.’

“Now let’s move. “If we delay any longer, we will definitely be trampled on.”

Taehyun moved his body as if he didn’t want to be asked any more questions.

‘After the highest species.’

Kiiii-.

Kiiiii-.

Taehyun felt the two magic stones located on the left and right of his heart.

Kiiiiii-.

While Shinji fainted, the second soft magic stone cried softly.

‘There are eight left.’

Ten magic stones that contained the entire power of the Grand Duke when he was the King of the Underworld.

We’ve only just made two of them.

I wonder if the archdukes will discover themselves first.

Perhaps the first thing to do is to covet the power of the princes.

‘It’s a race against time.’

Eat.

A faint laugh escaped.

Is it because it’s a path I walked once?

Taehyun didn’t think he would lose that fight.

‘Zodiac guy. ‘There’s no need to bother people.’

I wish it had been brought back to the days of King of the Underworld from the beginning.

I felt jealous when I thought that even the ‘dragon’ and ‘demon king’ who had greater power than me would not have experienced this much confusion, but that was only for a moment.

“Whoa….”

Taehyun quickly calmed down his anger and gathered himself.

This is because I know that cool-headed reason is needed in situations like the present.

tower.

Another divine tree planted in Middle-earth.

‘Tolkien. ‘What on earth happened?’

Taehyun wandered around the fourth floor of the tower, and Shinji Nakata followed quietly behind him.

* * *

[Was there an attack?]

Gorfer, who was sitting on the throne, frowned at Gilfer’s words.

[Igmun. It’s the work of that scum.]

[Igmun?]

[Crazy guy… The reason he chose this place means he’s looking down on his original demon the most.]

[….]

[Did he tell the other brothers?]

Gilper is dumb. He asked.

When I say brothers, I mean the level of arch-devils.

[Are you crazy? If they find out, it will only be a laughing stock.]

[….]

[Something is strange. It’s clear that he knows he’s targeting his own contractors. The conversation between the brothers will not be leaked.]

There were five ancient archdemons who attended the meeting.

Mammon Mephisto Asura Gorfer Gilfer.

Although their personalities are different, they have the same roots as the demon race.

Even if it was a life-threatening battle between great demons, it was impossible for them to join hands with a vampire they regarded as insignificant.

[Bonma thinks so too. It’s unlikely that the brothers joined hands with Igmun.]

[That’s right. Joining hands with that miserable guy is nothing short of shame. More than that… What’s going on here?]

Only then did Gorfer properly check Gilfer’s appearance.

Looking at his exhausted expression, it was clear he had been through a battle.

[I encountered a demon beast tribe while tracking down a human who was presumed to be Igmun’s contractor.]

[Huh. Could it be that you got injured from fighting against those guys?]

[It was an army. It wasn’t easy to deal with him without desire.]

Gorper clicked his tongue at the sight of him answering without hesitation.

[Losing my powers was a stupid choice. Pathetic….]

[It’s not lost, it’s just thrown away. Didn’t he gain ‘desire’ thanks to you?]

[Don’t compare ‘desire’ with such useless power.]

‘Desirelessness’ is of no help to Gilpere’s newly acquired power or power.

A great devil who values military force.

In particular, it was natural for Gorfer, who shared the same power, to be looked down on.

[Gilfer. Brother of Bonma. With that mindset, you can never become a king.]

Gorfer emphasized that he has not yet given up his position as the Demon King.

Mammon Mephisto Ashura.

Beings who did not become demon kings.

The difference from them is that he is constantly seeking the position of demon king.

Even though they suffered terrible defeats from Beelzebub and Diablo.

[I guess it’s because I can’t control my desires. Gorfer. You were born on the same day and at the same time as your ancestor.]

[What are you talking about all of a sudden?]

Gorper expressed his discomfort.

[Bonma acknowledged that he could not reach Beelzebub and Diablo with ‘desire’ alone. And it became what it is now.]

[Are you trying to justify a cowardly act?]

There was anger in his voice.

To him who still hasn’t given up his position as king, Gilpere’s words sound like a loser’s excuse.

[There was a difference in priorities, but the original demon prioritized survival.]

[You idiot. That’s why you’re acting like this now.]

Despite the verbal abuse, Gilpere gently shook his head.

[Bonma has no regrets. I think I was able to become the Demon King because I gave up my desires and became desireless.]

[What…?]

[Gorper. In the past, the original demon became the Demon King.]

[….]

[He also rose to the position of King of the Underworld, representing all the great dukes. Beating down guys whose level is incomparable to the current archdukes.]

[Gilpere. you… Are you crazy?]

Unlike Gorfer’s harsh words, Gilfer’s red eyes were darker and clearer than ever.

[But unlike in the past, there is not enough time in many ways to have a smooth time. That is why the main horse no longer maintains desirelessness.]

Tuk-tuk.

Gilper pointed to his mouth.

Come to think of it, Gilper had been lifting the spell that had sealed his mouth at some point.

[What on earth are you planning… Ugh…]

Gorfer looked at the thorn that had pierced his chest in sudden pain.

The end was connected to Gilpere’s fingernail.

[Gilper… you bastard…]

[In order for our power to be perfect, ‘desire’ and ‘non-desire’ must become one.]

Chiiik.

Purple magical power bloomed from Gilfer’s body.

poison.

It was a power of Beelzebub that had never been used before.

[sorry. Brother.]

Anger bloomed in Gilper’s body.

[As it is natural. The original demon will take your power.]
