Episode 141. Brilliantly (1)
[Quest: Simuard Family’s Request]
Simuard of the Mado family.
They are cursed with a time limit imposed on them.
I want to dig up the source of the curse.
—Visit the Seymourd Mansion. (Success)
─Confront Countess Seymourd. (Success)
─Destroy the demon possessed by Yula Simuard and cancel the contract of curse. (in progress)
Updated quest objectives.
I am fully prepared for this moment.
Not to mention the fluttering [white elytra], even the [twist wand struck by lightning].
[Luxury – Lightning-Struck Twig Wand]
[Grade: Unique]
[Limit:
Lv
.
It is already an attribute magic that consumes a lot of mana. It was obvious that he would suffer from magical exhaustion if he poured out the one hundred elemental magic stored in his elytra, but he didn’t care.
Arcana Continent covered by demons.
Grandfell’s pride grows higher and higher in the living hell.
『Perhaps what the devil should be most wary of is not the class of the demon hunter, Granfel, but the human being itself.
』
For me, the Arcana Continent was rather like a home ground. Whether it’s a high-ranking devil or a demon lord. It’s not unreasonable to risk one’s life to take down one guy.
however.
[The first world tree has noticed your existence.]
[The first world tree blesses you.]
[Life and magic regeneration greatly increase.]
…I didn’t expect this either.
The blessing of the World Tree was activated just as I was about to unleash my magical power. Of course, this wasn’t fully prepared. It’s just unexpected luck.
[Lucky: 7]
Indeed, it’s worth investing 1 precious point in luck…! Anyway, like the name of the World Tree, the effect is no joke. Even right now, it’s consuming a lot of mana.
‘I don’t feel like my magic is running out.’
A level that cannot be compared to non-herb buff effects.
No magic tool or item could produce such an effect.
The blessing of such a world tree became the basis for my confidence.
One step—
a lake.
I manifested magic and walked on the surface of the water.
It’s something you can’t even imagine when you’re under the influence of magic.
However, [Natural Enemy Relations] was not enough, so now the world tree buff was added.
This level of magic expression did not affect the amount of magic power in the slightest.
So let’s walk a little bit as long as we have a rare opportunity.
Yes, walking on water felt like this.
However, the distance with the devil did not narrow.
“…!”
If I take one step closer
It was because he took a step back.
Exorcism has already been triggered.
in consciousness.
The mental battle between me and him must have started a while ago. But nothing to worry about. Grandfell’s lofty pride collapsed in front of the devil?
Don’t take my dark history lightly.
Because I know better than anyone that it is impossible.
“…Would you just watch? Demon World!!”
Suddenly, the boy shouted at the sky.
“Demon King, you evil! He came looking for us!”
You’re just spreading rumors around the neighborhood.
As you can see, the look of surprise is evident.
Well, it’s surprising.
‘It’s only natural that they know about my existence to some extent.’
Demons that were hunted by demon hunters ceased to exist and could never be resurrected.
That the existence of giants and demon lords has disappeared.
It is only natural that the demons would notice in their own way.
but.
‘You wouldn’t have thought that I would appear on the Arcana Continent.’
I don’t know what the devil’s common sense is.
Common sense, who would think?
The last demon hunter will attack the demon-filled Arcana continent with his own feet.
It was something that even I, the person involved, could not have imagined even a few days ago.
Gooooh—
but whether it was planned or not.
Nothing else, but Marcelo’s life was at stake.
The pride of Grandfel, of course.
Even if it’s because I don’t die from overwork while being buried in the chief’s work.
I must have had no choice but to enter the Arcana continent.
“Don’t make me say it twice.”
cold declaration.
at the same time.
Awesome—!
A lake that freezes in an instant.
I said the guy to the prey.
“All I have allowed you to do is apologize to the Simoard family.”
[『Giggy』] Absolute zero manifested.
“…!!”
The boy’s face froze.
.
.
.
from toe to head.
An uncontrollable chill strikes.
It can’t go on like this…!
“Quit!”
Yula made a quick decision.
Pooh-!
So that the cold cannot climb through the whole body.
He took out a fingernail he had hidden under his skin and cut off his own ankle.
Even if the body is regenerated, I would never have thought that I would cut my own ankle with my own hands.
Yula took a deep breath.
‘…is this an exorcism?’
Yula did not directly participate in the Holy War.
Because I didn’t want to be treated the same as the stupid devils.
I just watched the end of Akkshan from a distance.
Could there be anything better to see than that?
on human subjects.
Akshan’s demon hunters who despised demons.
It’s like they were betrayed by their allies and then hunted by demons.
It seemed like an ecstatic sight just to watch. However, the development of the holy war was different from Yula’s expectations.
-“Damn them bastards…!!”
Even in the crisis of being betrayed by allies and besieged by the devil, the demon king. Akkshan hunted demons to the end.
Despite the overwhelming difference in head count. Even though they know they have no chance of winning.
They were not broken until the very end.
As a result.
Akshan killed over a dozen demon lords.
Because that’s not enough.
“I can’t die like this. Rather than this…!!”
Made the Seven Deadly Sins of Greed commit suicide.
If he died at the hands of a demon hunter, his very existence would be erased.
yes demon hunter
They were the kind of beings that made even the giants commit suicide in fear.
-“But nothing can stop us now.”
The annihilation of such a nemesis Akkshan.
Like other demons, Yula had been sweeping her chest. Furthermore, he once again marveled at his judgment for not participating in the holy war.
But I never thought that judgment would come back like a boomerang.
‘why. Why can’t I see anything else?’
It wasn’t enough to occupy the vacant seat of the Demon King.
Although she had enough strength to not have to worry about a ranking battle, Yula lacked experience. Furthermore, he had no experience facing his nemesis, the demon hunter.
Yula’s view like that?
The only thing you can see in the dark is heat.
To be precise, it was only Ho-yeol.
A special space above the lake.
Ho-yeol standing upright.
Inverted heat.
It shook Yuli’s spirit even more.
Yula came to her senses.
I remembered the hardships of the past.
‘I have endured, endured, and endured again.’
I can’t just disappear like this in vain.
Yula shouted again.
“Look. you demons There is a demon hunter here. If left unattended, there is an existence here that will drive us to ruin!!”
everything is just an illusion
Just because you can’t see a demon’s eye doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.
He’s not the only one in the dark.
I’m just misunderstanding.
After thinking about it, Yula came up with an idea.
‘…Okay, let’s take some time.’
No matter how much he is a natural enemy, he is only human.
Playing with the human mind?
It was an easier job for myself.
Yula opened her mouth.
“Funny, demon hunter. Are you trying to avenge the temple now? Akkshan When your comrades die miserably. Where were you and what were you doing?”
The Last Demon Hunter.
I don’t know what the story is between that guy and Akkshan, and I don’t care. However, if you are a weak human being, you will have no choice but to be shaken. Yula added.
“If there had been a demon hunter like you, the outcome of the crusade could have been different. but you weren’t there What is the result? He killed dozens of demon lords and drove the giant to suicide, but Akshan was defeated in the end. Exterminated!”
If you are a weak human being.
I can’t help but feel guilty.
If that’s the case, your mental strength will be shaken.
‘Aim for that gap.’
However, the wind is colorless.
What came back was a voice that was no different than usual.
“No matter how many times Tyler is good, there is no progress at all.”
“…what?”
“I feel sorry for the beast even compared to the beast.”
…what the heck?
He didn’t even feel the slightest bit of agitation.
“But since you saved me the trouble, I will hang out with you.”
What do you mean by that arrogant gaze?
Rather, aren’t you looking down on yourself?
Besides, did you save the trouble?
So would you like to hang out with me?
Without even asking why, the man continued.
“To sympathize with Akshan is an insult to their pride.”
“Is it blasphemy to sympathize? Stop laughing!”
“It is also pitiful and light-hearted of their sacrifice.”
“…!”
unwavering eyes.
Seriously.
The guy really thinks so.
natural enemy.
I thought I knew why demon hunters are called the devil’s nemesis.
Their way of thinking is not that of weak human beings. Even if that way of thinking is broken, it must be firmly broken.
The celestial enemy finished speaking.
“Time to drown in ugliness.”
.
.
.
…So, I can guess what kind of feeling he brought up the Holy War. would that work for me? For me, who has had an arcana hiatus of over 10 years living in the present life.
Still, I’m very grateful for the information about the temple.
Thanks to you, one question that remained in my head was solved.
Why did I feel a sense of incongruity from the Seven Deadly Sins, greed?
I wondered if it would make sense to not know about the exorcism ceremony while becoming a demon.
It would make sense if the seven deadly sins of greed were self-determination.
It also smelled like a foolish demon somewhere.
The fact that the level was similar to that of Demon Lord Dekaravia.
Demons are growth type monsters.
Colossus is no exception.
If greed was self-determination and then resurrected, it makes sense.
In that sense, both feelings of relief and astonishment coexist.
Level 650 as soon as you were born.
If so, what level was Greed originally?
And how did Akshan make such an evil self-determination?
‘…It’s not something to sympathize with, it’s not enough to praise.’
Forces yet to be revealed, including the Mage Tower and the Goddess Church, betrayed Akkshan. It was said that Akkshan had pushed greed to the point of making it commit suicide in such an unreasonable holy war.
So I can honestly say.
“To sympathize with Akshan is an insult to their pride.”
The exchange must be over. I aimed my wand at the shocked guy. A guy struggling with exorcism probably won’t have the skills to withstand a hundred magics. I could guess.
Unlike him, I had experience.
“It is over. You little devil.”
In order not to sink and drown in heavy pride.
While struggling with all my strength.
It is me who has fought against the giant demon king several times higher than the proper level.
The effect of [Aesthetic] reaching the [Medium] level.
The 『Lights』 scattered to use as a catalyst for attribute magic began to shine brilliantly. As if trying to replace the stars of Arcana that had disappeared from the night sky.
gorgeously.
Each star responds to the magic emanating from its elytra. The sphere of pure magic becomes a catalyst for attribute magic, maximizing the destructive power of stored magic.
Literally a hundred colors.
An unfathomable level of attribute magic spread over the lake.
It’s a bit like fireworks.
Could it be because the lake reflects the light?
At least twice as spectacular as this.
“It finally looks like the night sky of Arcana.”
If so, would they be satisfied with the aesthetics of Grandfel?
But it could be predicted.
There could be no greater fear than this for a guy who fell into an exorcism.
As if to back up that speculation, the guy screamed.
“Aaaaa!! I can’t die like this!!”
Is it the last glow?
Evil energy emanated from his body.
The musical instruments that had swayed in the air changed into patterns.
“Marcelo…. As long as I can get his lifespan, I will…!!”
But unfortunately.
No way.
I coldly declared.
“I wasn’t expecting it. You are overdoing it.”
“…!”
“I don’t want to hear any more. Shut up.”
Black Magic 『Black Crown』.
A person whose mind has collapsed will not be able to resist intermediate level black magic.
As if to prove it, a message came to mind.
[‘Silence’ occurs to Demon King Yula.]
Stars fell on such a guy.
[Your level has risen.]
[Your level has risen.]
[Your level has risen.]…
The dizzying message comes to mind.
I felt the gaze.
Did you realize the demon king’s death only after the exorcism was over?
Huge demon eyes floating in the night sky glared at me for an instant.
At the same time, the [natural enemy relationship] reacted.
hundreds.
no thousands.
Tens of thousands.
All the demons in the vicinity were running towards me.
Yes, it must have been a frustrating situation.
[The Last Adventurer] If it didn’t work.
But this was also in mind.
so you said
Thanks to talking about it like that, it saved me a lot of trouble.
I shifted my gaze.
From the demon’s eye in the night sky to the “belly” behind me.
[Flying Mechanical Iron Castle: Waiting for orders]
[Flying Mechanical Iron Castle: Waiting for attack]
It’s time for the real fireworks display.
