Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 203
46. Keeping the promise made 10 years ago (4)
Deus summoned a black hole in front of him and put Bina into it. You will be sucked into the prison of the Demon World.
It was a desperate measure that I chose because I couldn’t take her with me or leave her behind.
Immediately after, it soared into the sky. The appearance also changed to that of a human. The combat mode was not very energy efficient.
He seemed to be going straight to where Signi was, but he stopped for a moment and shouted into the air.
“Yulgeum, no, Jingeumyong! You were the one who brought Zeke here. “You must be somewhere where you can hear my voice!”
He took a deep breath and shouted.
“If you feel any remorse for betraying us, please do us a favor! While I am away… please do not crush my people to death like insects against our demons!”
Deus bowed his waist.
“request.”
I couldn’t hear the other person’s answer, but Deus had no choice but to say that.
Aside from the angels, the strongest being here is Jin Geum-yong.
If he led the human army directly to attack the demon world, it would only take a few hours to capture Eidos.
Deus’ shadow created a long line in the sky.
Immediately after he disappeared, a short sigh was heard in the air.
“Regin… stop it. I…
“Don’t tell me, sister. My sister has been cursed and is out of her mind. I will go up to the sunrise land and perform a ritual to lift the curse. “The angels told me that if I perform a ritual at the altar of sacrifice at the entrance to the demon world, the curse on my sister will be lifted.”
“ Regin
Signy closed his eyes in a cold sweat. It seemed like he couldn’t handle the pain and fainted again.
Currently, Signy was riding the same horse as Lexia.
Because Signi was in poor condition, a string was tied around her waist and connected to Lexia.
Thanks to that, she didn’t fall, but the horse Lexia was riding stumbled once.
“Let’s hurry to the ground. “It looks like the curse is getting worse.”
Regin nodded at Lexia’s words and whipped his horse.
There is not much left until the border of the Demon World. Regin and Lexia
urged their words without letting go of their tension.
At that time, Scatul, who was at the very back, raised his voice.
“It seems like they noticed.”
Lexia turned her head and looked back.
“I will try to stop it. You two, go straight to the altar of sacrifice.”
“Are you okay alone?”
Scatul laughs at Lexia’s question.
“You have to do as much as you can. It’s a race against time. “If I can break the curse placed on Signi’s body,
it is worth making some sacrifices.”
Regin nodded.
“Please leave it to me. “I will definitely lift your curse.”
“Your sword contains Michael’s blessings. “There is nothing that sword cannot cut, so do not be afraid.”
“yes!”
Regin drove the horse roughly. Lexia hurried after him.
Scatul, on the other hand, stopped in place and looked down into the distance.
A man
was flying, clinging to the feet of a red bird.
“This is… I was once a swordsman teacher, so it would be a shame if I lost in a fight.”
Scatul put his hand on the sword at his waist with a nervous expression.
He gets down on the ground. I was speechless for a moment with a shocked look on my face as I looked at Scatul.
“Scatiel!”
“Now I’m the elf Skathul.”
“ah! “Did you also participate in this war?”
“So it happened.”
“I heard that Regin took Signy away. I guess that’s not what the angels wanted, right?”
Scatul smiled and did not reply.
Zeke’s heart became anxious.
“Signi is not guilty of anything. ‘What on earth are you going to do to that kid?’”
“It will bring everything back to square one. “We must lift the curse placed on her.”
Zeke’s expression hardened with a scary premonition.
“A curse… You sure you
don’t want to do anything to the child, do you?”
“kid? Zeke, that is not a child. “It’s the devil’s curse.”
“Mr. Scatul!”
“Are you trying to make SIGNI give birth to a demon lord? How are you going to deal with that sin? Do you want to become the hero of the family that gave birth to the Demon King?”
“It’s SIGNI who decides that.”
“I’m going down the wrong path, but as your older brother, are you going to just watch me?”
“that!”
“I understand very well that you have a crush on Deus
. When I met him face to face, he was definitely an attractive person. But now he is only the 666-year-old Demon King Demiurge. Do you still see him as Sang Indeus?”
It was a scathing point.
Skatul spoke again.
“We will take your place and put everything back in place. So just leave like this. “Zeek, I will ask about the immorality you committed later.”
Zeke stopped as if he had been nailed to the spot.
Scatul nodded, looking at him
. Thinking that I understood what he said, I tried to get back on the horse.
At that moment, Zeke pulled out a dagger and held it in his hand.
“Mr. Skatul, you taught me swordsmanship and magic. He is like a teacher. But today I cannot follow your words. Please don’t hurt Signy. We will decide our own affairs. “No matter what the consequences are, I will bear them all.”
Scatul slowly turned and
looked at Zeke again.
“The condition of Suzaku and Blue Dragon is not perfect. “It’s probably because I gave my all in the fight against the devil.”
He took steps and approached Zeke.
I put my hand on the handle and looked at Zeke again.
“I can’t let you go this way. “Are you seriously planning to fight me?”
“yes.”
“You know my identity.”
“I know.”
“The tip of the sword you are holding
is pointed at the angel.”
“That’s right.”
“Are you planning to fight against God’s army?”
“Well, I…
“Zeke! “You are truly cursed!”
“sorry. “My consistent intention is that I want to let Signi decide her own fate.”
Skatul sighed again.
“You were very stubborn.” He pulled out his sword and aimed it at Zeke.
“Do your best. “I won’t accept your situation
.”
“sorry.”
Zeke bowed his head. And when he raised his eyes again, his body rushed forward.
Scatul swung his sword and cut Zeke down.
It was an ordinary blow, but Zeke was amazed.
Countless sword techniques were hidden within the ordinary.
In the past, when Zeke learned swordsmanship from him, he didn’t know much. However
, as my awareness of Scatul’s swordsmanship unfolding
before my eyes deepened, I was able to fully imagine its power.
Zeke produced a dagger and blocked his sword.
Sharp sparks scattered in all directions. Skathul laughed.
“You’ve grown tremendously in 10 years.”
“It’s because I had a good teacher.”
“It’s no use flattering me. “I am just a small part of a huge group.”
“It seemed like a good operation.”
Zeke swung his sword again.
It was a dagger, but the fact that the blade was already the same length meant nothing. The overlaid aura was replacing the blade.
Scatul’s swordsmanship was exquisite.
On the other hand, Zeke’s swordsmanship was a bit crude.
The Holly Bitch family’s swordsman Wol Gwangjo was still at the center.
But just because it was clunky didn’t mean it was weak.
The body imbued with the power of Suzaku and Blue Dragon has already surpassed even angels.
Tension spread across Scatul’s face.
Meanwhile, Zeke wasn’t feeling at ease either.
I had to go rescue Signi, but Skatul was not an opponent I could easily shake off.
My body was very tired after fighting with Deus for over 30 hours.
My whole body felt as heavy as wet cotton.
I could feel the aura depleting in real time. If it weren’t for the power of the divine beast, I wouldn’t have been a match at all.
Nervousness led to mistakes.
Scatul’s blade stuck in Zeke’s shoulder.
“Ou” — “1.
“Please step back. “This is the only advice I, as a teacher, can give.”
Zeke looked straight at Scatul.
“Please don’t make Signi more unhappy.”
“Which do you think will be more unhappy? “Between giving birth to the devil’s child or losing that child!”
“No one in the world gets happiness from losing the child they worked so hard to raise!”
Scatul was about to say something again, but he was startled and hurriedly backed away.
A sword fell and stuck in that place.
And at the same time, one person entered the battlefield.
“Dooms Rhino was completely unusable, so I picked up a Sanya instead. “It’s a magic sword, so the downside is that it sucks some blood, but you can bear it.”
“Lord Deus!”
“And leave this bastard to me. “I think I’ll be able to beat it up as much as I want this time.”
Scatul shrugged his shoulders with a troubled look on his face.
“Isn’t it a foul? “The hero and the devil take sides and persecute the angel.”
“You’re just a fairy now, right?”
“That’s right…
“Zeke! good!”
“thank you!”
Zeke mounted one of Scatul’s three horses. As soon as I kicked the spur
, the horse began to gallop up.
Scatul couldn’t stop Zeke like that.
If I tried clumsily, I might end up getting bloodied by the Demon King’s fist.
“It seems like you also have some kind of paternal love.”
Skatul said, bringing his sword closer to his body.
“Fatherhood?”
“I left the danger of the demons and came here for the sake of your child, who was carried on SIGNI’s back.”
“Is that how it works?”
“It’s love in the heart of the devil! “Isn’t this setting too unreasonable?”
“I feel that way even more after hearing it from the kidnapper angel.”
“It’s a bit unfair to call him a kidnapper. Signi is human. “Wasn’t it you who dragged her to the Demon King’s Castle?”
“I can do it. “Because he’s a world-renowned villain.”
“So it’s not a kidnapping, it’s a rescue.”
“What are your intentions?”
“It looks like your judgment has been impaired by the curse.”
“It seems like you can just stick anything on it. Since we already know each other well, I’ll give up the right to go first. “Come with all your might.”
Scatul just laughed and didn’t move.
No matter how much I thought about it, there was no chance of winning. Wouldn’t it be better to save face by not fighting?
Of course, I couldn’t just walk away.
It might be okay if it’s just Zeke, but if Deus is freed, the plan will be completely ruined.
“It’s not humans you really have to worry about, is it?”
“What do you mean?”
“Because the dragons will soon invade Eidos, the capital of the demon world. /
“It must be your angels who moved the dragons.”
“I can’t say no. Don’t you know now too? “Yulgeum’s true identity.”
“I don’t know. “Jin Geum-yong is just Jin Geum-yong.”
“Have we talked yet?”
“Does it matter?”
“Yes
, but you.”
” yes?”
“Are you holding on to me because you think Zeke will somehow sort things out?”
“Hahaha. Was it a very obvious trick?”
“huh. “So that means there’s some secret trick over there too, right?”
“For now.”
“Get out of the way.”
“Are you planning on not keeping your promise?”
“What promise?”
“Didn’t I just say that a moment ago? “You will give me
one move.”
“So come.”
“I started off a little slow. “Please wait a moment
. I will try to gather more strength to attack you.”
