The Return of Apocalypses Tyrant - Chapter 102
Episode 102
“Prime Minister. “This is a message from the White House.”
“….”
The Prime Minister, who was being briefed on the situation in Daejeon, stiffened slightly at the communication received through the hotline.
“Is there a problem.”
“They say support is impossible. Although it is said that this time the portal is limited to one, they mentioned what happened in the red zone and announced that they need troops to defend their country against any possible danger.”
bang-!!!!
The chief secretary who was holding the receiver flinched at the expression of the prime minister slamming down on the table.
“What about other countries?”
“…Same. “The UK is in a state of panic because Alec Traman has not regained consciousness, and Aira Michel chose to go to the UK rather than Korea for his treatment.”
The chief secretary spoke cautiously.
“The UN’s position is the same. There are already 5 Revelators in Korea, so I did the best I could at this point…”
“Do my best? This is ridiculous. “What did they do!!”
“The maximum power of any portal in history has been deployed, so removing more power than this will create a gap in national defense…” “
Stop. “I understand.”
The Prime Minister stroked his hair and nodded toward the Chief of Staff.
“If they don’t want to support you, you can’t force them. Instead, send an official letter to the UN.”
“which…?”
“I fully understand the Union’s intentions. This fourth monster will be completed by our own hands without any further support. “One instead.”
The Chief of Staff listened to the Prime Minister’s words with a nervous expression.
“Instead, going forward, we will also prioritize our own security, and the Republic of Korea will not allow assistance from other countries unless it meets those conditions.”
The chief secretary looked dumbfounded by his shocking words.
“Prime Minister Chu. That message is the same as turning other countries into enemies…”
“Enemies? “As a country belonging to the United Nations, we are simply putting our country first according to the decisions made by the United Nations.”
the prime minister said.
“And the government will actively accept that opinion and prioritize the people above all else going forward. “More than any other organization, including the UN.”
Despite all the talk, the prime minister ultimately showed his will to take an independent path going forward.
‘Did the Prime Minister have this kind of side?…’
Although he was capable, he was not very cruel, so he always had a strong image of being a good person.
Among those involved in politics, he was strongly evaluated as having high popularity but weak power.
But does a place make a person?
The chief secretary felt strange seeing him in a more cheerful manner than before.
‘I feel a little… relieved.’
The government was in a critical situation as the National Assembly building exploded and all key figures disappeared.
In a situation where a central point was needed, it was questionable whether the prime minister would be able to do the job well.
It’s ironic, but now that we’re in a crisis, that question has disappeared.
If so, we will be able to picture the future of Korea a little better.
“What is the situation?”
“It is still very cold on the outskirts of the fortress, but we are gaining ground little by little. “The problem is inside the fortress…”
he said carefully.
“We have already deployed ships near Gunsan and maintain squadrons in the sky, but it is not easy to fire artillery fire into downtown Daejeon.”
Bombing and shelling were simple things, but it could actually cause damage to Namgung.
“Namgoong is our most important force. On the contrary, if you suffer damage from the support fire of the military unit, it may pose a greater risk.”
“Hmm…”
The Prime Minister let out a pitiful groan.
“He’s right.”
“…yes?”
“I have no choice but to become stronger myself.”
“So you didn’t create the True Evil Unit?”
“That’s not enough. “If we win this battle in Daejeon, we will have to find a way to increase the strength of the soldiers of each army in addition to the Chamak Unit.”
“All right.”
The chief secretary bowed and answered.
“This battle in Daejeon… Thanks to Namgung, the damage is less than during the third gate, but the situation is much worse.”
Although they said they were weak, they had to fight alone without receiving support from the military.
“…Can we win?”
The chief secretary, who was about to leave the reception room, hesitated for a moment while holding the doorknob and spoke.
“well. All we can do now is trust him. And we must reflect on the fact that the nation must rely on individuals and not forget that we are unable to provide him with power.”
“…I need to become stronger.”
“okay. You have to make it like that. “For those fighting on the front lines, it is our responsibility to build a national power that no one can surpass.”
“I will prepare an emergency conference.”
The Chief Secretary opened the door to the reception room with a more confident expression, as if he had renewed his resolve.
* * *
[I can’t believe it….]
[How can I still be alive…?]
It’s been a week since the gates of hell opened over Daejeon.
Among the over 600,000 demons, the number has already decreased to over 100,000.
Of course, there was still a huge army of 500,000 remaining, and although there were more demons than the people guarding Daejeon, they were unable to attack, unlike the first time.
The will to fight has already been broken.
“…Is this the end?”
Namgung, who was standing over the corpse of the demons, looked at the demons and laughed.
My teeth were all broken and empty, and my jaw bone seemed to be protruding, so I felt a tingling pain every time I smiled.
There was no way there was a healthy place.
As if it was a sign of a fierce fight, the flesh on his wrists wrapped around the chain was tattered and the bones were visible, and his eyelids were so swollen that he could not see properly.
“Even the great demons ultimately become the same in the face of fear.”
[…You.]
The demons growled, but no one approached them first.
‘This cannot happen…’
‘We did this to just one human being…’
They could not understand this situation, but they had no choice but to acknowledge the power of Namgung, who killed them with only military force. .
‘What he said was right.’
‘We know all our weaknesses.’
‘How can a guy like that…’
They were in a state where they felt like they would collapse if they even touched them, but what made them unable to move out of fear was because they acknowledged that Namgung was a hunter who had already killed them once.
[What are you doing!! He’s already out of stamina! He is the one who killed us!! Shouldn’t we take revenge!!!]
“So, I want you to come. “Will they really listen to you, who has been making fun of me for the past three days?”
Gulp-gulp-
“The devil of the stump. “Olga.”
Namgung shoved the red liquid into his mouth, swallowed it, and spoke to the screaming demon.
“Well, you were a noisy guy right before you were decapitated and destroyed.”
[…Shut up.]
Olga growled at Namgung, but she could feel the eyes of the demons behind him.
“Keep one thing in mind. “If you plan on attacking me, you should be careful of the thorn growing in your left armpit.”
It was Namgung who spoke with a smile, but with just those words, Olga couldn’t be hasty in attacking him.
A thorn growing in the armpit.
Because that was his fatal weakness.
“You demons are strong. But even so, you are just a clan and not a god. Everyone has weaknesses. And…”
Namgung grinned.
“The problem is that I know all of those weaknesses.”
Ppa-deuk-!!!
Olga gritted her teeth as she tightened her grip on the sword, but it didn’t change the situation.
“Whoa…”
After swallowing all the red liquid, Namgung stood up, exhaling as if his stamina had recovered a little.
Jump- Jump-
Namgung picked up one of the swords dropped by the demon and started walking.
“It’s good because it’s a weapon that’s widely available.”
The liquid he drank a moment ago was not actually a potion.
The potions in the dwarf’s squadron had long since run out.
[….]
Every time he took a step, the demons flinched and stepped back without realizing it.
Sigh –
He wiped the liquid from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand.
It was demon blood.
Wood-dud-duk…!!
Then he cut off the demon’s legs with his sword.
A
fishy smell stung his nose, but as if nothing had happened, he peeled off the flesh from the demon’s leg and started chewing it.
“The blood and flesh of your demons, which have powerful magical powers, are quite good healers.”
Crunch… Crunch…
Ironically, in the eyes of the demons, he looked more like a monster than they did.
[How could something like that…]
[What a monster…]
It is not wrong to say that the blood and flesh of demons help with recovery, but eating it itself was not something a human could do.
Because their bodies were inherently toxic.
The moment you eat blood and flesh, the poison contained within it will attack your body first.
Only after overcoming that distant pain, the blood and flesh melt and even the toxicity is restored.
In other words, you have to endure more terrible pain than that before your body can recover.
It wasn’t something I could do without going crazy.
“At best? To survive…”
Namgung said, throwing away the leg of the demon he was chewing on.
“I’ve done worse than this.”
[Kaaaaaaagh—!!!!!]
That was then.
A huge serpent was summoned at Namgung’s feet.
Kwaaaaaaa!!!
Ugh…! Ugh…!!
It ran wild like crazy, opened its large mouth at the surrounding demons, and started biting them without hesitation.
[What?!]
[Damage!!!]
As the dragon appeared, the demons began to scatter in all directions along with the sound of screams.
‘I wonder if I can buy a little more time.’
Namgung sat down on the floor as he watched Yongah running wild.
Although he was bragging, his condition was so bad that even standing was difficult.
‘You have to stay alert. Although it is a contracted summon, Yonga has the habits of Leviathan. If he thinks I’m weaker than him, he might target me.’
Because of the internal injuries sustained after the battle with the Demon King in London, he was unable to summon soul soldiers, so dealing with Yonga was actually quite dangerous.
That was the reason why he did not summon the dragon while fighting the demons until now.
It was literally the last move left until the very end.
[KAAAAH!!!]
[…Please save me!!]
In addition, the persistent fear created by Namgung hardened the minds of the demons.
Demons were also living creatures after all.
Sometimes there may be moments when you cannot make a rational decision.
Namgoong deliberately targeted that variable.
[Damn it…!! Do you think you’ll fall for that kind of trick!!]
[What are they doing?! At most, it’s nothing more than a monster!! Everyone fight!!]
Still, in the meantime, several demons, including Olga, who were not fooled by Namgung’s trick, ran towards Namgung.
“damn… “Is the bravado over here?”
Namgung gritted his teeth and adjusted his sword.
‘Can I win?…’
Just holding on until now was an incredible feat.
Namgung quickly shook his head as his eyelids kept closing.
If I collapsed here, it was really the end.
It was then.
Coogggggggg…!!!
A magic circle was created under the portal that opened in the sky, and the space began to split.
[…!!!]
All the demons looked there.
[That thing!!!]
[It’s the devil’s magic circle…!!!]
It was like adding insult to injury.
In a situation where dealing with demons is difficult, the appearance of a demon lord is truly driving a wedge.
Waaaaaa—!!!!
[The Demon King is coming!!!]
The faces of the demons, who had been stiff just a moment ago, opened up and there was a huge cheer in an instant.
[Finally…!!!]
After checking the magic circle, Olga burst out laughing loudly at Namgung.
[…Khaha!! You damn cockroach-like bastard…! But now it’s over for you too!!]
Olga raised her weapon and shouted at Namgung.
At that moment, Namgoong closed his eyes as if he was tired.
[In the end, you too gave up…! I will make you regret attacking the demons!! Suffering forever in despair….]
“Shut up, right? “They fight with their snouts for days.”
Opening his closed eyes, Namgung spoke to Olga.
“It seems you were desperate. “The Great Demon wants to see only what it wants to see.”
[…What?]
“Is the only thing that has changed now is that magic circle?”
Creep –
Olga instinctively knew something was wrong.
Damn it…!!
A magic circle opened above his head as he hurriedly stepped back.
Wow…!!!
And then something fell.
[…!!!]
Olga looked at the thing that had fallen at her feet, as if at a loss for words at the completely unexpected sight.
It was the head of the devil.
Only then did he understand Namgung’s words.
There was a fragrant forest smell that did not fit in a place filled with the smell of blood.
Kwagagagagagagagagagagagagagagaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!
At that moment, dozens of red thunderbolts struck Daejeon.
Frequently … !!!
Surprisingly, the lightning targeted only the demons as if they were alive, and the moment it touched the demons, it turned into flames.
[Kaaaa!!]
[Ahh!!]
The demons began to struggle against the flames clinging to their whole bodies. But the more they did, the deeper the flames burned their bodies.
The screams of demons rang out from all directions.
Thunder fire.
Thought magic that only one person in this world can use.
“Now the air has changed.”
Namgung took a deep breath.
