Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 210
48. The world is large and there are many villains (2)
Silence continued, and Nezar spoke again.
“Okay, okay then, let’s select a manager first. Administrators are on a first-come, first-served basis. Just 100 people. “I will make you a noble in my kingdom.”
Both humans and dwarves noticed.
It was difficult to know how the situation was going, so I was afraid to take the initiative.
Then a man raised his hand.
He was a lame man.
A member of the Helios Army, he followed Teryan up the mountain.
After losing his leg while fighting a monster a few years ago, he mainly worked in the rear, farming or making daily necessities.
Because it was a battle-related injury, he was treated well, but if he lived like that for a long time, he was bound to become alienated.
“Can I become a noble too?”
Nezar nodded.
“Of course. Since you are the first, I will give you the craft.”
“Thank you. your majesty.”
“Come here.”
“Yes…
He hesitated and walked through the crowd to where Nezar was.
On the way, someone spat.
” betrayer!”
But I wouldn’t have guessed that those words would become his will. The giant rushed in and crushed the man who spat.
“That’s rude to a nobleman.”
Nezar said this and burst into laughter.
In suffocating fear, the limp man stood before Nezar.
“What’s your name?”
“It’s Murchi Purfose.”
“Lord Purfosse. Okay, a duke was born in my kingdom. “Fall yourself here at my feet.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
He bowed his head to the ground.
Nezar said to everyone.
“The orders of the nobles are absolute. In
the unlikely event that a slave rebels against a nobleman’s orders, up to four people closest to the slave will be executed.”
“Where is that?”
Another dwarf couldn’t stand it anymore and cried out, and a total of five people, including the four people around him, turned into blood clots and were thrown away.
After that, no one could rebel against Nezar’s rule.
One by one, the number of people raising their hands increased. When the number exceeded 10, hundreds more raised their hands and volunteered to become nobles.
Nezar had 326 people raise their hands at once
to come forward.
“Hmm, good. I never thought my loyalty to this position would be so deep. It’s very satisfying. However, only 86 noble positions remained. “What should I do?”
Nezar rested his chin and looked at the 300 or so people.
“I can’t. The world is a world of jungle. Kill each other until there are 86 left.”
The aspiring nobles flinched at Nezar’s words.
This was because it was difficult to figure out how much of it was sincere.
But not everyone was so hesitant.
A man pulled out a short dagger from his waist and attacked the person next to him.
The man who was stabbed screamed loudly. I cursed and cursed, but all that came back was the cold blade.
The slaughter of the father and son took place.
Those with weapons had the advantage, but because each person had different fighting abilities, the strongest ultimately survived.
The number of survivors was 73.
Rather, 13 positions became empty.
Nezar once again selected a nobleman. About 100 people came forward, and most of them died.
There was not even the slightest respect for lions.
The bodies were swept up like giants were combing and piled to one side.
The slaughter stopped for a moment as the last 100 people were filled.
But compared to what happened right after, it was a rather gentlemanly incident.
“Five dukes. The Marquis opened. The count is twenty. The Viscount is thirty and the Baron is thirty-five. “I said it would be first-come, first-served, so the position you kneel on now
is yours.”
Nezar chuckled and spoke again.
“Nobility has privileges. Even if you murder, you will not be held accountable. Even if you rape, you will not be held accountable. Even if you steal, you will not be charged with a crime. Even if you take God’s name in vain, you will not be charged with a crime. Even if you steal your neighbor’s wife, you will not be held guilty. Just remember one thing: Obey the higher nobility. I am your God from now on. “If you are not willing to serve me as a god
, then go back to your place as a slave.”
The nobles shouted in unison.
“Oh God! I will follow!”
Nezar looked down at them.
More than half of them were humans, and about 30 were dwarves.
Nezar ordered the nobles to rule over the human and dwarf slaves.
Five slaves were tied together and made into one hut. If one of them commits an impure act or runs away, the other four will also die.
People were organized to strictly monitor each other
, and status was also divided among slaves.
If you cooperated and listened well, you were a first-class slave. If you were lazy in everything, you were demoted to a third-class slave.
Food and resources were distributed according to social status. Women were thoroughly reduced to sex toys, and elderly people who were unable to work were executed.
Nezar said this as he saw a world like hell opening up.
“It’s really nice to see. Hahaha!”
He then gathered together Neuekahn’s executives, including Sadimus and Laquet
.
It was to appease them as Adapa, a higher-ranking human species.
Some of them submitted to Nezar’s power, but Sadimus and Raque Ju Shark Actor cut off Nezar’s advice with a single blow.
The four men were immediately thrown into prison.
In particular, Sadimus was imprisoned in a place where magic was prohibited, and Lakhe was imprisoned in an iron prison where roots could not penetrate.
After everything was organized, Nezar immediately began research.
They mass-produced Adapa and
created special weapons by fusing the mechanical civilization of the Golden Age and the magical civilization of the Silver Age.
It was about three months after Nezar began ruling that the demons visited the Kingdom of Tiparet.
Senul, the Marquis of the Demon World, was quite surprised by the scenery of the Kingdom of Tiparet.
It must be a kingdom of dwarves, so what do all those giants mean?
Moreover, the humans and dwarves doing labor were living subhuman lives
.
It seemed unlikely that prisoners of war would be treated that way.
I followed the guide and went to the emperor’s residence.
In the throne room, which was built by remodeling part of the former Tiparet pillar, a 10-meter-tall giant was occupying the throne.
“You are the wise king of Tiphareth. This is Senul, the Marquis of the Demon World. “I brought you a letter in the name of Duke Seven of Demon World.”
The giant Nezar looked down at Senul with an arrogant expression.
“Are you a demon?”
“That’s right.”
“They’re demons… they’re currently at war with humans, right?”
” yes.”
“At best, it’s probably a request for reinforcements. “If we see a war going on in their own territory for over a year, the demons will be outnumbered.”
“We are struggling due to the betrayal of the vile dragons.”
“But why is it in the name of the Seven Dukes? “What happened to the Demon King?” Nezar
seemed to stiffen without even realizing it
as he said the word “demon king .”
I felt bad about that and clicked my tongue.
It seems that the memory of what happened once became a trauma.
To be honest, I still wasn’t confident that I would win.
We had to create more star servants. Thunder God’s neural network also had to be completed so that Thunder God’s hammer could be used with maximum efficiency.
“My lord is now… emptying the Demon World to resolve more important matters
.”
“Hmm, you mean he isn’t there? “Actually, he didn’t seem like he had a sense of responsibility.”
Marquis Senul blushed at Nezar’s sarcastic remarks.
Do you run away from home or go missing on the battlefield?
The demons were now full of dissatisfaction with the demon king.
“It just worked out well. It would be perfect to test the newly created weapon. “What will you give me in return if I help you defeat the humans?”
“Is there anything else you want? “I have prepared
a lot of gold and jewels.”
“There are a lot of things like that here too. “Dwarfs are the best at digging.”
“Well then… what should I pay in return?”
“good night. So let’s do it like this. First, you need magic.”
“When you say magic, do you mean the magic of the demons?”
“okay. I lack knowledge about magic. Teach me as many magics as you can.”
“I will talk to the seven dukes
. “What else do you want?”
“It’s the blood of a demon.”
“That is…
“Please hand over 10 people from each race to me as slaves. Since we will not send them back alive, it will be enough to send these useless people.”
“We will discuss that as well.”
“Then follow me. “I will show you the power to blow away your hesitation once and for all.”
Nezar took the Marquis of Senul and brought him to the patronage of the royal palace. A group of giants
were currently training
there .
500 giant men, about 3 meters tall, were divided into two sides.
They were all wearing spears and armor with strange patterns engraved on them.
Senul saw an amazing sight there.
Lightning shot out from the giant’s spear and struck the giants on the other side.
Just looking at it made me feel powerful enough to make my hair stand on end. However, not a single wound was left on the bodies of the opposing giants.
“It is the spear of the thunder god and the armor of the thunder spirit. “I
put it on the giants I personally evolved, so I can do my part.”
“500 giants… you mean?”
Senul showed a hesitant expression.
Even with powerful weapons in their hands, the giants were too few to play a part in the great war.
“500? No, we plan to send 100 times that much.”
“50,000! Are there so many giants here?”
“Some of them are occupying surrounding kingdoms. The number of troops staying at the root of Tiphareth
alone is 50,000. “I will lend them all to you.”
50,000 giants who wield the Raijin Spear.
Senul looked back at the giant once again.
But surprisingly, they were conversing with fluent vocabulary.
Nezar called them evolved giants.
I suddenly felt afraid. What on earth is happening under the land of the Jose Continent?
Deus and Zeke were still staying in the underworld.
The continent of Jose, where humans lived, and Purgatory Hille, where demons lived, were both made of material.
Meanwhile, the Land of Dragons was a different dimension, and the Underworld was another world that could only be reached after death.
“Ha, why doesn’t it end like this?”
Deus grumbled.
SIGNI arrived at the gap between the underworld and the real world after about 280 days.
However, in Zeke’s case, it seemed like 365 days had already passed, and
there was no sign of it ending.
“Is it my fault?”
“Yeah dude.”
“sorry.”
“Okay, let’s continue talking about what we were talking about before. “Wormwood monsters are animals that lived on a planet called Earth.”
“There was a lot of meat to eat. On the other hand, the monsters on the continent of Jose are not like that. Guys like Hydra and Awig.”
“I can’t eat, I can’t eat. “No matter how much you cook, it won’t be possible.”
“It’s impossible. really.”
“That means we need to distinguish between animals and monsters.”
“yes. Things like elephants, horses, lions, and tigers are animals.”
“Isn’t that the name that damn woman gave you?”
“yes. “Some of them are even on the Jose continent, but there are many more that are not there.”
“That means there is a possibility that the monster was created intentionally at a later date.”
“Even if we say later times, we are talking about the Silver Age or the Age of Chaos. “At least 60,000 years old.”
“Whatever it was, we needed a monster.
“For what?”
“Warrior!”
“Why the hero?”
“To increase the hero’s abilities!”
“Keep trying.”
