Regressing with the King’s Power - Chapter 675

Part 2 Episode 91

What does it mean to be strong?

Jormungand provided the answer to that philosophical question a long time ago.

The power to trample on everything.

A gigantic force of existence that can encompass, take responsibility for, and dominate countless species and life forms.

The powers of those called the Grand Dukes of the Underworld all had a rank appropriate to them.

In that sense.

Orgal’s authority was related to ‘strength’ and ‘power’ more than any other archduke.

Strengthening.

As the great warrior of the Demonic Beast Tribe, he unified the fragmented minority species and ascended to the position of Grand Duke.

Like other grand dukes, he had the right to be called king.

Until a day like today came.

Jormungand was thinking so.

* * *

Crrrrrrr.

Blue magic bloomed and Jormungand regenerated his wounds.

It was a swollen area due to Orgal’s attack a little while ago.

He is originally a being who is not inferior to Orgal.

It goes without saying that it is near the Magic Sea, which can be said to be one’s territory.

Quarrr!!

A curtain formed using the Demon Sea blocked Orgal’s fist.

It is defending against the attack of the Great Duke with only the power of the area.

‘Orgal guy. ‘You’ve regained more strength than you thought.’

Jormungand frowned at the shaking coming through the veil.

I thought he must have been damaged by Lucifer.

However, although the power emitted through the fist is weaker than before, it is certainly at a level that can be called an anti-aircraft gun.

How is it possible to maintain this level of existence?

An unresolved question lingered in Jormungand’s mind.

‘It was a miscalculation.’

His gaze glanced towards the sky.

Maybe it’s just one Orgal.

Lucifer is waiting for an opportunity in the sky, and Rosaria is observing him from afar.

If two additional archdukes join forces, it is dangerous no matter how much it is your territory.

This is because his body has not yet fully recovered.

No, even if he was in perfect condition, the enemies in front of him had considerable momentum.

‘Are you saying that Kim Tae-hyun is behind all of this?’

He remembered the flame Taehyun used a while ago.

‘…’

Just thinking about it made me feel like I was breaking into a cold sweat.

To say that his actions after that are amazing is not enough.

Make a contract with the Succubus Queen and the Fairy King.

He resurrected the Giant King and joined hands with the fallen angel who defeated the Giant King.

‘Have you signed contracts with the rest of them?’

This guy also signed a contract with two archdukes. It wouldn’t be surprising if that number were five.

Then why does he want to kneel even himself?

Unanswered questions tangled in his mind like a skein of thread.

[….]

Kim Tae-hyun is behind all of this.

The more I come into contact with Orgal’s magic, the more memories of Taehyun Kim come to mind.

This is the moment when the memories that suddenly come to mind are trampling on Taehyun.

Kwaang!!

He was awakened from his thoughts by Orgal’s blow that shook the tent.

Jormungand overexerted himself and brought out his divine power.

The intention is to process it quickly and switch to water-based.

‘The dragon race or the demon race. Or we have to join hands with the vampires.’

Kudddddd.

Jormungand revealed its true form.

The demonic sea swirled and formed a huge barrier around the area.

This blocked any room for Lucifer and Rosaria to intervene.

Now, the only people inside the barrier are Orgal and himself.

[Is it another barrier? They said there would be limitations in using the power… It was true.]

[Who said that?]

The giant Jormungand asked, flashing his Odd Eye.

What rose from his body was not blue magical power, but divine power.

Although it was only half his strength, it would be enough to subdue Orgal.

[Kim Tae-hyun. My brother said that.]

[….]

It’s not wrong.

It’s not easy to control my strength after being attacked by that guy.

[Orgal. This place remembers the great history of the Demonic Beast Tribe. That guy now treats humans as if they were his own master.]

[This body is the youngest.]

[…?]

[That’s why I took on this difficult job.]

[….]

[But below. Just because one more person is coming in, there is no reason not to take charge.]

Orgal’s huge mouth twitched.

[You should be the youngest.]

Boom. bang. bang. bang.

Orgal laughed maniacally and pumped his fist.

[Crazy guy…]

It seems like it’s not just his physical condition that’s not normal.

Jormungand’s tail struck Orgal’s massive body.

[Ugh…. It’s tingling.]

Contrary to what he said, Orgal started hitting his tail.

Even if somewhere in your body is broken or a limb is cut off, Lucifer will regenerate it.

because.

[There is no way Lucifer would let this body die.]

[…What?]

Jormungand was taken aback by the unexpected word.

Is this guy the great warrior of the Demonic Beasts and the vicious Orgal that he remembered?

Has my mind been broken?

Obviously, his appearance and way of speaking are no different from what I remember.

The Grand Duke is talking about his older brother and younger brother?

Contrary to Jormungand’s doubts, Orgal’s spirit was stronger than ever.

In order to raise his status after being attacked by Lucifer and Igmun, he went through a recovery period in the personal space formed by Rosaria.

During that period, Elven and Typhon Lucifer Kim Tae-hyun fought endless battles to raise his level.

In the process, my personality changed only slightly.

‘This guy can’t be… If that’s the case…’

I remembered what Orgal had said to the youngest member a little while ago.

He vomited out his divine power in an unpleasant flash of horror.

[Sigh….]

Shake it off.

This is the moment when Orgal falls to his knees, moaning from the wave of divine power pressing down on him.

Tuk.

Suddenly, the weight of the oppressing divine power became lighter.

Before I knew it, a familiar being was receiving divine power.

Contractor of the five Grand Dukes and his…

[Master.]

Orgal bowed his head politely.

Taehyun looked at that and shook his head excitedly.

“The archdukes have pride… Stop it…”

There was some mischief among the archdukes in the process of restoring their status using the unique skill King’s Engraving.

Elven and Typhon took the lead, while Rosaria and Lucifer stood by.

As a result, Orgal came to call Elven his older sister, Typhon his older brother, Lucifer his younger brother, and Rosaria his younger sister.

It must have been Rosaria’s prank to call herself, the contractor, Master.

“How on earth did the Elven kid treat this kid?…”

Taehyun, who had completely blocked the barrage of divine power, looked up at Jormungand.

“How are you?”

[Kim Tae-hyun.]

“You said I would come find you, right?”

A smile appeared on Taehyun’s lips as he looked at Jormungandr’s body.

It’s because I don’t feel the magic of run away from him.

“I’m on my way after meeting Hazard.”

[…!!]

“Even if I step down from here, Hazzard will be the new Demon King. Or Igmun will come and threaten you.”

[Do you want to form an alliance with the main throne?]

“No, the time for that has already passed.”

Brown magic bloomed around Taehyun.

This is by using Orgal’s power, Strengthening.

“You today. “You will obey me.”

[Nonsense…!!]

Jormungand vomited out divine power.

Magical power was blooming from the blue scales.

The idea is to overpower it and subdue it with just one attack.

Kiiiii-.

Kiiii-.

The magic stone rotates.

“Orgal. “Do you need a younger brother?”

[That’s right. Master.]

“Yes. “Starting today, the youngest is escaping.”

The magic power of the archdukes rose from the magic stone that began to rotate.

* * *

The first floor of the tower. Office of the President of the New Korea Players Association.

There, Ji Jin-hee and Ko Tae-wook were watching the war being played as a hologram.

Several screens changed, but there was no significant difference in that there were victims everywhere.

“The players were brought in and the war intensified.”

“…It was a stupid decision.”

Ji Jin-hee sighed at Go Tae-wook’s words.

The people who made the foolish decisions he mentioned were not him, but the heads of players’ associations around the world.

Players actively participate in exploration and life-saving activities and are prohibited from engaging in activities that cause harm to human life.

Provisions emphasized by the establishment of the World Players’ Association.

The cause of the treaty that had been kept for decades becoming ineffective was ultimately a war between powerful countries.

Trade conflict between the US and China. Territorial war between Russia and Ukraine.

The war that started with conventional weapons continued as a severe war of attrition, mobilizing affiliated players.

Currently, we are facing an even more dire situation.

“It appears that Japanese players will join the American side in the war.”

“Geeeeee…”

Ji Jin-hee’s face frowned.

This is because Japan, like New Korea, was one of the countries that was extremely reluctant to introduce players.

With this, New Korea has become the only one holding on without being able to decide on players to deploy in this war, which has spread like wildfire.

“President of the Association. Australia and Japan chose the United States. Iran chose China and received huge compensation. Now we also have to decide on a route. “We cannot remain neutral forever.”

Go Tae-wook once again reminded us of reality.

The friendly competition and implicit competition that began with the establishment of the player system have become meaningless.

Once the blood was shed, more blood was desired.

“New Korean Minister of National Defense. President of the World Players Association. In addition, we are constantly receiving calls looking for the president of the association.”

Two months have passed since the war broke out and Ji Jin-hee summoned the players inside the tower.

The government, which had drawn a line with material support, dispatched the military, and now the arrow was pointed at Ji Jin-hee, who was in charge of the players in the association.

“My thoughts have not changed. What is the gate to the second floor?”

Not long after the joint party of New Korea and Japan returned, the gate to the second floor was blocked.

Everyone is trying to find out the cause, but it has not been revealed yet.

“It’s still blocked. If we continue like this, we never know when we might become cut off from the outside world. Wouldn’t it be better to move outside?”

“No, the moment you go outside, you cannot be free from the government’s influence. “Players should accommodate as much as possible on the first floor and do their best to open the gate to the second floor.”

“Are you okay…?”

What Ko Tae-wook asked about Ji Jin-hee’s personal safety.

In the current world situation that wants more blood to be shed, he was an angular stone.

“The player’s duty is exploration, not war or politics. There are quite a few proud people in the tower who are still carrying out their duties. Even the stupid old people in politics can’t do anything as long as I’m holding on. and.”

Ji Jin-hee pointed to the ceiling with his index finger.

“Our national power class is still being explored.”

Jinhee Ji pointed to the upper floor of the tower and burst into laughter.

The 5th floor of the tower that New Korea could not reach even though it invested all its power.

A considerable amount of time passed without any supplies being received.

Even though it is common to think that one is already dead.

“Maybe we really reached the fifth floor.”

Ji Jin-hee burst into laughter, asserting Tae-hyeon’s survival.
