Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 313
71. The One with the Red Heart (1)
“Master, do you really intend to do nothing?”
“I’m busy. “Evi, evy, get out.”
“My lord!”
“Get ready to evacuate. Do you have a lot of wealth stored up in the Tower of Eidos? “We have to get it out as soon as possible to move at least one more box.”
“Where is my wealth?” Even though he said so, Alex
was worried about whether he should seriously prepare for evacuation.
After he left without any results, Deus turned his eyes to Migo again.
“Now then, just like we practiced earlier… the fighting technique I finally realized was DS. It’s a battle method that means day of wrath. Do you understand the concept?”
“Four four. But Dad…
“Focus.”
“sorry. But are you really going to abandon Eidos? The demons have a special regard for the demon Eidos…
“I’m a demon too.”
“I’m also half demon.”
“Eidos, with its ten thousand towers, is very beautiful. “If humans get their hands on that, they will definitely burn and destroy it, right?”
“yes.”
“Then shall we do it like this?”
“how?”
“Learn DS-Irae. “If I succeed even once, I will end this war.”
“Really?”
« O ” O.
“Then let’s practice right away!”
Deus smiled bitterly as he looked at Migo, who was smiling brightly.
“Is it that good?”
“The demons are also my people.”
“Don’t like it too much. “You get stabbed in the back just like me.”
“Isn’t that also a monarch’s duty? “People always need someone to take responsibility for them.”
“It doesn’t have to be you. They enjoy their rights but run away when they have responsibilities. That’s a demon. “Don’t imitate a warrior too much just because you have a little bit of warrior blood in you.”
“Thanks for your concern, Dad.”
Deus’ nose turned when he saw those eyes looking straight at him.
And that evening.
Deus saw something unbelievable before his eyes.
My daughter Migo was smiling.
He drew a V with his hand and there was light in his fist.
Deus knew the name of the purest light.
“The brilliance of the law!”
Migo’s fist emitted a brilliant
light, completely shattering the magical energy emitted by Deus.
light and darkness.
darkness and light.
Deus saw the power in Migo’s hands.
It was clearly the wavelength of an angel.
It was also the wavelength of the positive energy of the Demon Spirit, which corresponds to the origin of Deus himself, the body of the Demon King.
Migo realized light and darkness.
And that was only a few days after I first taught DS.
“You are as genius as me.”
He cleared his throat and hid his surprised expression. These were the only words I forced out.
“This is what DS is.”
“That’s right. The key is to neutralize the opponent by using the power of the Jeongjeokwiwi. It’s not an easy task…
“I thought the Demon King’s throne was just that of a hero. “I thought it had something to do with the aura, but it was a little different.”
Migo turned the light in her hands into beads. I twirled it along the fingertips and the back of my hand, then raised it back to my palm.
“So I tried imitating an angel’s wavelength.”
“Well, you were raised by an angel.”
“This is Yulgeum’s wavelength.”
“The inversion of my wavelength… naturally became the angel’s wavelength.”
Deus pondered the meaning of those words.
I fought with angels several times. However, the angel’s inversion was not Ma Young-gi.
At the time, I thought it was natural.
The inversion of water is not fire. The inversion of water is just the inversion of water.
But why is the Demon King’s reversal…. the brilliance of an angel?
While it was confusing, it felt like a big puzzle had been put together.
“Fallen angel… Demon spirit…
Migo closed her mouth and looked at Deus quietly.
I wasn’t foolish enough to interrupt this moment.
“And Lucifer.”
Deus looked at Migo again.
“Ding.”
” yes?”
“Wrong. The devil’s successor
is not an angel. “It’s one of the lights that angels have.”
“Yulgeum’s light?”
“yes. He is not the leader of the angels for nothing. “It’s completely different from the power of guys like Kamael and Gabriel Raguel.”
Deus grinned.
“Anyway, good job. A promise is a promise, so shall we get ready soon?”
“Are you going to come forward yourself?”
“That was my intention from the beginning. However, after the northern wall collapsed. “I think it’s only at that level that the Seven Dukes will move.”
The term ‘destruction’ literally meant the human army at this time.
No one doubted victory.
There were many sacrifices. Many slave soldiers died, and nine out of ten knights in the unit that first crossed the border were killed or wounded.
However, the number of soldiers dispatched from their home countries was greater than the number of dead and injured soldiers.
There was no way for a monarch to
withdraw from a war in which victory was promised .
The high-ranking noble dispatched the bastard and sent elite knights.
Just like the crusades of a civilization in the past Golden Age.
It was a high-spirited army of a god who was on the verge of retaking the Holy Land.
The expedition took a long time, but rather than being harmed by blood, the humans were full of fighting spirit.
And as their momentum increased, the demon army became frightened.
I cursed the sun for the light I wanted to obtain.
I missed
the dark and dry Demon World of the past .
I regretted my foolish action of attacking the human world.
A melancholy song rang around the walls, and they looked down helplessly at the human army that had gathered like a swarm of ants in front of the walls.
-We will soon be in small pieces.
— I can’t even whisper my words to my wife
– we’ll be trampled to dust on the cursed ground.
– If dust gets in the eyes of a traveler,
please chase it away with tears. Because that would be my body.
Alex clenched his fists as he listened to the song recited by a beholder on the castle wall.
He walked into the basement of the Ten Thousand Towers.
It was a charnel house. It was the final destination of the soul and the darkest place in Eidos where all death gathered.
In the very center of the charnel house, the dead bodies of past demon kings were enshrined.
The Demon King dies in a fight with a hero and
disappears without a trace. Therefore, the thing in the center of the charnel house was closer to a kind of monument.
However, all the demons believed that the souls of past demon kings resided there.
Just as a lion can return from the land of the dead.
It is said that one day, the demon spirit will create the body of the demon king and become a vessel for the demon soul to reside in.
The name of this place is the Room of Memory. As long as all demons remember, the demon lords are alive.
There is a black tower in the shape of an obelisk.
The names of past demon kings were written there.
Demiurge I, II…
Alex sighed as he read those words.
A weirdo who gives himself a name and uses only that name.
Deus.
Was it intentional? Or is it a coincidence?
Why did he give himself the name of an ancient false god?
“No, it might not be a lie.
The name is…
Alex looked up at the tombstone for a long time.
I nodded and shook my head several times as if I was having a conversation with it.
“Should I trust him? Does he, like you, care about balance and order in the world? To this day, I still remember the words you first said to me when I first opened my eyes in a small fish tank. ‘You have a right. ‘You have the right to live in this world.’ At that moment , this worthless life
began to breathe. “You are the true God of this world.”
“I think if God really heard those words, he would cause an uproar. “I would rather be punished than heavenly punishment.”
Alex looked back in surprise.
Room of memories.
The man standing against the black wall was Deus.
“Master.”
“I never knew you were such a godly person even after we had been together all our lives. I feel sorry for you. “If you
had treated me like this, I would have been less crooked.”
“Is it my fault?”
“You blame me too, right?”
“Yes. “We are defeated by humans because we cannot come together like that.”
“Humans can’t win.”
“Is this what you want to say, my lord?”
“This is the conclusion I came to after watching Zeke for a long time. “Demons cannot defeat humans.”
“So are you leading us to defeat? “It’s fate that will come in the end, so let’s meet it sooner.”
“There must be beauty even in destruction. Will you struggle to live and then die an ugly death? Will it shine brightly for an instant and then disappear?”
“It’s still not that bright.”
“Just make it brilliant.”
“How…
“Seven Dukes’ Prison Chains.” They all die after a fierce final battle with humans. A small wooden epitaph stands at the place where his body fell… It is fading away with the windy and windy years. “There must be someone weeping under the rain of that lonely tree
.”
“Who is that?”
“Shall I do it?”
“I refuse. “If the Seven Dukes die, the Demon King must die too.”
“This bastard is cursing me to death.”
“It’s self-defense.”
“So who are you?”
” yes?”
“You sneaky bastard.”
“You mean it’s internal?”
“I know it’s not you. “You’re probably being ostracized just because you’re close to me.”
“What do you mean?”
“It’s really dark.”
“By internal communication, do you mean that someone is engaging in internal communication with humans?”
“say it.”
“There is only one high-ranking demon who can communicate with humans.”
Deus waved his hand at Alex’s gaze.
“I said no.”
“It’s more suspicious that Zeke is nowhere to be seen. When are you going to cut off the last leash? The last Zeke in my memory… gained the power of the two Death Gods and
had a power that surpassed that of previous Demon Lords.”
“It’s stronger now. When I write the Bon Dance in the play, I almost lose track of my final destination. “I have no choice but to start with one hit.”
“Are you laughing?”
“fun. Could you imagine? Do you think the hero will become this strong? At most, half of the Demon Lord? Since you’re a saint, you had to join forces with your fellow warriors to fight against the Demon King, right? But that guy is already at the same level as Archangel.”
“It’s the enemy.”
“Such dichotomous thinking
is what blocks evolution.”
“Will Zeke really quit being a hero? Like who quit being the devil?”
“I’m the devil again.”
“I’m sure you’ll quit soon again. No, you don’t need to make those dumplings. If this continues, the profession called Demon King itself will disappear.”
“Well, that’s the best, but… so who are you?”
“No one is doing anything like this. To be honest, our Seven Dukes are all selfish guys. They only look for their own way to survive. But
it’s not stupid. If your lips disappear, your teeth will become cold. We all know that if you betray your people, you will eventually die. You can save lives right away by communicating with humans, but…
“Not humans, but Lucifer.”
” yes?”
“Should I call him Demiurge I?”
“yes? “You got it wrong?”
“Take out your hundred legs and listen carefully. “Who is listening to Lucifer’s orders?”
Alex glanced at the tombstone
.
The name at the top is Demiur Goth I.
That was a great name.
The powerful being who gathered the Seven Peacocks that were born in the laboratory and destroyed the world of silver.
“What are you talking about? “It has been 666 centuries since he passed away. So, aren’t you 666 years old?”
“I’m 668 years old?”
“Is it time to play with words?”
“Don’t act like a fool either.”
