Regressing with the King’s Power - Chapter 638
Part 2, Episode 54:
A dream.
A unique skill imprinted on Taehyun along with Predation.
Just by opening the tentacles, he was able to escape the enormous pressure.
‘The use of dreams is limited.’
Image world. Or, it can only be activated in personal space.
That means this is not a complete demon world.
“It’s still in Diamante’s consciousness.”
Taehyun figured out the current situation right away.
I entered the world of imagery, where there was a demon world and one of the demon kings in their prime.
Isn’t it similar to the world of one’s own imagination?
I am curious about the world of new forms of imagery.
It was the same with Diablo.
[It’s an interesting trick.]
The eyes at the feet. The Demon King’s red eyes widen.
Taehyun jumped and one of his tentacles was cut off at the same time.
“It’s not an ordinary eye, is it?”
I looked around, away from my eyeballs.
devildom. The world of demons that makes up the world of images.
Whether arbitrary or unintentional. They are a species that excels at tearing up space to create their own territory.
If the reason Diablo is here is similar to his doppelganger.
‘There is no way I can deal with this lightly.’
Even if you use dreaming, there is no time to let down your guard.
My eyeballs narrowed the distance between me and Taehyun.
Taehyun kept a certain distance and stepped back without stopping.
This is because as the distance gets closer, the body becomes stiff due to the power of fear.
[Didn’t the original demon have some business to attend to? Dream demon’s contractor.]
A voice rang in my head.
My limbs are shaking as if I’ve been mentally attacked.
‘There is no such thing as a monster.’
The demon king’s red eyes. It’s not even the body, but the eyes of the guy, but the presence that can be felt is great.
Beelzebub and Diablo, who Taehyun faced in the past, were in an incomplete state.
A single eye in the image world of an ancient arch-devil is giving off a similar feeling of pressure as back then.
‘If you fight the main body now, you will inevitably lose.’
I remembered how I dealt with him in the past.
Even then, they used the power of mind control to neutralize him.
But now, in his imperfect state, he was about to become incapacitated.
‘I’m not surprised that the fairy race was destroyed.’
Noname, who created the three thousand worlds.
Among the beings of the underworld, the two beings he created with great care were the Fairy King and the Giant King.
Even if it’s because Typhon hasn’t awakened his proper power.
Elven was a being who knew how to control enormous power from birth.
No matter what the process was, he was the archduke who destroyed even such a person.
The first Underworld King. A monster that even the demon kings of the past have never faced.
That is the ‘fear’ of the present.
The opponent is only a part of the Demon King’s body, but you must do your best as if you were hunting the Archduke.
‘I risk my life.’
Fortunately, the magic of bonsai still remains.
If I were to develop a dream, it would be worth trying with just a few remnants.
Tiring.
[The unique skill Dream Sight (???) has been strengthened.]
[Magic power consumption is accelerated.]
[The target is not specified.]
Taehyun stopped widening the distance and strengthened Dream Sight.
A maw blooms from the twenty tentacles, and the movement of the approaching eyes stops.
[The momentum has changed. Are you going to try it with your original horse?]
“You stink.”
[…?]
“They say the ancient great devils are brothers. “In the end, I couldn’t trust them, so I settled into this world of images.”
Provocation and alienation.
It’s a familiar behavior.
The Demon King’s eyes blinked at Taehyun’s words.
Soon a head-shaking laugh rang out.
[human. This is not a question that a savage species can ask.]
Red.
The magic power of fear was strangling Taehyeon from all directions.
[Rather, I would like to ask.]
Speculation and living.
Arrogance and irreverence.
In addition, all kinds of unpleasant emotions come rushing in.
The moment you allow even one of them, fear will creep in.
[Why humans? Do you have that kind of power?]
“That.”
Ugh.
The tentacles’ maws opened their mouths ravenously.
It began to bite into the tightening magic of fear and form a territory.
“Find out for yourself.”
Sigh.
A gap where the magic of fear has faded.
Multiplied tentacles pierced the eye pupils.
Another eye was created not far away.
Crack.
The maw, which had tracked down its prey as if it were not missing, swallowed up the new pupil.
The tentacle pierces the eye and the maw chews and swallows the eye.
Taehyun’s repeated attack and defense was quietly engraved in my mind.
When ten attacks were in vain.
[It is no use.]
The pupils split into two.
When the tentacles and maw were destroyed, they immediately turned into four eyes.
Suddenly, dozens of eyes surrounded Taehyun.
[Do you feel fear now?]
“The delusion is severe.”
[It’s meaningless resistance. [You guys are interested.]
He caught Taehyun and expressed his desire to know what the succubus queen was thinking.
“Your arrogance has gone too far and you have become confident.”
[Do not reject fear.]
Once again, red magic pressure comes in.
‘The power of the realm of Demon World is too great.’
If it continues like this, it will only be a waste of stamina.
The atmosphere needs to change.
A new board had to be made.
“I propose. “Why don’t we finish it all at once without wasting each other’s time?”
[That sounds interesting.]
“Try to subdue my imaginary world. Then you will know what you want.”
Ssssss.
The surrounding eyes flowed down and formed the shape of Diamante.
Diamante’s red eyes looked at Taehyun.
‘heavy.’
Even though she is also surrounded by the queen’s magic.
Despite having formed the shape of Diamante.
The power of the Demon King’s red eyes did not diminish in the slightest.
[It’s an idea worthy of a dreamer’s contractor. Are you allowing the invasion of the world of images?]
“Yes. “If only they could afford it.”
Laughter like a mad cow spread throughout the world.
The moment Diamante’s hand was raised.
Kwarung.
Red magical energy was shot out.
Crack.
The dream’s maw exploded, swallowing the magic bullet as it was.
If it had been blocked directly, it would have disappeared without any time to regenerate.
[A proposal to the original demon with such force.]
“If you don’t feel like it, go until it lasts.”
Ugh. Wow.
The tentacle’s maw exposed its teeth.
Qarring. Kwarung.
Several magic bullets were fired and hit by the tentacles.
A few thorns were torn out of the jaw.
It was a boring war of attrition.
[Indeed…]
Even though his attack did not work, Diablo was not particularly surprised.
Just the curiosity that an overwhelming being has towards mutants.
That was exactly it.
That was enough reason for him to accept Taehyun’s offer.
[Your image will be stained with fear.]
“I guess not?”
It has now become clear that it is an attack and defense.
Diablo, which is not even the main body, cannot withstand Doppler.
[If you are that confident.]
Crrrrr.
Diamante’s body melted and red magic dispersed.
[Please come in and have a look.]
Hahaha.
The magical power of particleized fear.
It caught up with Taehyeon, who was using dreaming.
It is about penetrating into the world of images.
Tiring.
[Strengthens ‘Queen’s World (SSS)’.]
[Strengthens ‘Queen’s Command (SSS)’.]
[Magic consumption accelerates.]
Memories flood in.
Diamante and the ancient archdemons having a conversation.
Diablo and Beelzebub command dozens of ancient great evils.
Expansion and transformation of the demon world.
The birth of a new demon king using divine water.
Memories and coordinates that I had never known before are imprinted in my mind.
When Taehyun came to his senses again.
The first thing I saw was Diamante kneeling.
The guy’s one remaining red eye was shaking.
Diamante opened his mouth in a trembling voice.
[Grand Duke… King of the Underworld… Realm… Absolute… Master… Race… War….]
‘That’s pretty good, Diablo.’
There must be doppelgängers in the world of imagination.
I found out more information than I expected.
However, Diamante’s presence was rapidly decreasing.
That ultimately means that his defeat is coming.
Diamante’s voice was shaking.
[…constellation. [Three thousand worlds… Predator…]
We reached the peak where one human had arrived.
That was the last time.
Siiiiiii-.
Diamante’s body began to melt.
[How… could this be…]
He couldn’t believe the truth he found out.
The Great Demon of Clairvoyance shook his head.
Slurp.
The fact that the guy’s only remaining red eye turned into a blue eye was something that even Taehyun could not have expected.
and.
“Kim Taehyun!!”
At the same time as the voice of the doppelganger shouting his name.
Tiring.
[Magic power consumption has reached its limit.]
[Skill ‘Queen’s Domain (SSS)’ is canceled.]
Personal space that has fulfilled its obligations has been released.
* * *
“I’m sure one thing will be done.”
Taehyun said after confirming that he had returned to the fairy village.
When we first invaded, this village was covered in demonic fraud.
But now there are only corpses of dead demons.
There were no more living demons in the village.
Of course, hundreds of fairies sacrificed their lives.
‘Dopple guy. I must have sulked again.’
I feel like I’m unintentionally losing trust in him more and more.
If they continue like this, even if a big offer is made later, they might just jump at it.
I even feel a slight sense of anxiety.
There is nothing better than time and compensation to resolve accumulated grievances.
Taehyun knew better than anyone else what doppelgängers were crazy about, so he put his worries aside for now.
Anyway, the more the turf war unfolds, the faster his strength will recover.
That’s what I was thinking.
[Peros!!]
[Elder!! Don’t lose consciousness!!]
The fairies, regardless of age or gender, rushed towards Peros.
It was a fairy whom Diamante left alone a while ago, confident that he would not kill her.
The magic power of the fairies enveloped Peros, but it was difficult to see the effect.
‘Have I been consumed by fear?’
To drive out the Archduke’s power, a corresponding force is needed.
I wonder if there are elves here.
It is difficult to properly heal with the ones we have now.
Taehyun took his hand to the bonsai.
When dealing with Diamante, I was in no hurry so I just had to draw strength. Not now.
The main body of the sacred tree and the bonsai are connected.
What he meant was that anyone who knew how to assimilate a bonsai could connect with an Elven who had assimilated into the main body.
[Contact the ‘Great Will’.]
[The ‘Great Will’ penetrates.]
The message emerges that assimilation is successful.
At the same time, I heard a familiar voice in my head.
[Contractor this XX. Why did you finally do the main thing now?]
[The guy who went outside is XX…]
[Explain what this is all about!!]
This is a voice I have grown tired of hearing during past turf wars and tribal wars.
That’s not what’s important.
‘This Elven guy… does he have any memories?’
A doppelganger who read his memories.
This is different from Rosaria, who regained her memories through the image world of her doppelganger.
Elven is treating Taehyun as if he knew he had gone outside.
I felt like the tension that was stuck somewhere in my chest was being relieved.
“You still have a foul mouth?”
[Is that what you want to say when it suddenly appears? Contractor like XX!]
Unlike the swear words, her voice was filled with joy.
Eat.
Laughter leaked out.
“It just so happened.”
XX. XXX. XXXX. XXXXX. XX. XXXX.
Screaming incomprehensible swear words.
Taehyun leaned his head against the bonsai pillar.
“I’m back, Elven.”
The cursing stopped and there was a moment of silence.
and.
Unlike in the past, the Fairy King is not alone.
[I was waiting. Damn contractor.]
A bright voice welcomed me.
