Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 325
73. Facing the Lord of Jupiter (4)
Nezar tried to stop Hamiel, but it was not that easy to silence the archangel’s power in an instant.
After all that was done, Hamiel turned and glared at Nezhar.
“You should already be dead.”
Nezar received her gaze with a hesitant expression.
“I was curious about something about you hiding your presence, and it seems like you are an angel meowing.”
“I am the monarch of beauty. “He is the master of vitality.”
“When I was alive, angels were just decorations in cathedrals.”
“Be grateful to the majority who did not lose faith. “It was thanks to their little praying hands that the seven angels did not blow the trumpets of destruction.”
“I liked it when the angels showed up. “My greatness would have been announced sooner.”
Nezar laughed and twirled the Thunder God’s hammer.
“Your arrogance
must be a belief in the power of Babel. “I will try to retrieve that power today.” The last force that Zeke suffered was a barbell.
The enormous energy that crossed dimensions came upon me in an instant.
If the blue dragon had not deployed a force field to block it, Zeke’s body would have been scattered like fragments across numerous dimensions.
Nezar laughed.
“Even the angels were interested in Babel’s power. It probably means you’re afraid. Get down on your knees. If you serve me , I will maintain
your status as an archangel .
“Motes from countless dimensions cried out loud like you and died by my sword.”
Hamiel looked at the tip of his sword.
Victory wasn’t what she was thinking about at this moment.
A single feather carried in Zeke’s body.
I hope it gives you hope.
Hamiel powerfully thrust his sword into an unwinnable battle.
Alex, the Grand Duke of the Demon World, frowned
.
Lord Deus thrust his fist at himself.
“do you want to die?”
“Are you a child?”
“Do you think it’s a joke? Do you really want me to kill you?”
“So…
“Do you still want to go on an expedition to the human world?”
“There are many warriors who pledge to avenge the past war.”
“Shouldn’t you be defeated before taking revenge? Then there wouldn’t have been any need for revenge.”
“Because we were ambushed…
“They say you’ll fight me head-on this time?”
“That means,
“You guys are basically stupid and shouldn’t be allowed.”
“At the Wizard’s Tower…!”
“Studying hair is probably there, but the fine hair is severely lacking. What kind of demon is good at fraud and trickery? I heard that demons have a somewhat naive side. “Maybe it’s because I’ve been used to the rules for too long.”
“So let me prove it! Demons are by no means weak
. I don’t mean to start an all-out war. Let us show them how strong we are.”
“Do you know what it means that half of the human heroes are dead?”
“What is that…
“I mean there’s half of it left. Also, what about Generation Zero? Who are you going to deal with? you?”
“That is.
“Or are you going to run away when you see Generation Zero? “Are you pretending it never happened?”
“So, we just need to manage the war well so that it doesn’t escalate to that point.”
“As you wish?”
“Aren’t the demons much more superior now?”
“Except me?”
“Mi Migo is also there.”
Migo, who was sitting on the sofa in the office studying, turned his head and looked at Alex.
Deus frowned.
“Who are you going to use as a shield?”
“Migo is the princess of the demon world.”
“667 years old retired. “He is the Demon King of the previous generation.”
“Does that make sense?”
“Anyway, stop talking about that. Isn’t there something more progressive and nutritious to talk about? “You said you would rent more of my land?”
“Too expensive.”
“You’re not hungry yet.”
“Because we have started harvesting on our first farm. It was incredibly fertile land. If things continue like this, we will be able to farm four times a year.”
“Pay the rent straight.”
“What I have to say about that part is…
“I refuse. “If you break the contract, we will start confiscating the Seven Dukes’ properties.”
While Alex was pouting,
Deus spoke again.
“Anyway, maintaining the status quo for now. “It’s dangerous both here and there.”
“Humans may not know, but the demons are perfect now! Even if an enemy suddenly falls from the sky, there is nothing to be afraid of.”
“okay? “If an enemy suddenly falls from the sky, you deal with it, okay?”
“Please leave it to me haha.”
A whistle was heard.
It was only after it had already created a huge crater
in the back of the Demon King’s Castle that I realized that the sound was coming from an object flying at incredible speeds cutting through the wind .
Alex’s smile stiffened and Deus nodded.
“come. “The enemy of heaven.”
“Yes… four?”
“It’s dispatch. “Kyo Goku.”
“Yes?”
The guards did not know what to do with the scene before their eyes.
That person holding the magic sword was clearly a human.
He was asleep, as if he had passed out, with his hands clasped over his chest.
It was hard to even tell if he was dead or alive.
But there was no way to check.
An untouchable aura surrounded his body. Just looking at the lower-level demons made the hair on their entire bodies stand on end.
The sacred aura was causing the plants in the Demon King’s castle to wither and die.
The knight captain in charge of security mustered up the courage to approach the aura.
The result was that my already wide forehead was completely peeled off.
The hair on my entire body was burned by the torch.
Fortunately, because it was the Demon King’s Castle, there were quite a few high-ranking nobles.
The guard commander showed utmost courtesy to the person who appeared.
They were Demiurge 668(?) years old, 667 years old, and Grand Duke Alex.
“Great Lord of the Demon World, this is a big deal. It seems that the enemies have used a new type of attack. That is clearly the corpse of a warrior. “It looks like the warrior’s body was soaked in holy water and shot with something like a catapult.”
Alex frowned.
“Such a terrible thing… let’s check it out.”
Deus, who was behind his back, said.
“Whatever it is, you decided to defeat it, right?”
“Master, that’s not what’s important right now.”
“Is that the most important thing? Go Alex.”
Alex frowned and walked towards the hero who had fallen from the sky.
The concentration of the sacred aura was extremely dense. It was so difficult that even Alex, one of the Seven Dukes,
could not easily be defeated.
I looked through the hazy aura and looked at the corpse.
But Alex sighed in vain at that sight. I took a step back and almost collapsed.
“Lord, Lord…
There is no way Deus could not have seen what Alex saw.
“Did that kid die again?”
That was Zeke.
Migo looked at Deus and Zeke alternately with a helpless expression on his face.
Deus took a step forward and waved his hand. The aura dispersed and Zeke’s appearance was clearly visible.
On his chest was the demon sword Asmodeus and a large, unidentified feather.
The feather was about two spans long and pure white.
At first glance, it didn’t look like the feathers of a bird or anything like that. Because feathers that emit light on their own aren’t that common.
“Is it from an archangel? “It’s a familiar wavelength… Hmm, Hamiel?”
At that moment, Zeke opened his eyes.
“Hamiel! “Whoa!”
His breath returned.
He looked around, his expression twisted in pain.
“uh? Deus?”
“Sorry, the opponent this time is not me, but this guy. “I asked you to help me defeat you.”
Deus gestured toward Alex.
But no one was already there.
“You ran away. Shiki, a traitor.”
Deus said while looking around.
“I think we can talk about it here, so let’s go up.”
“Yes…
Zeke nodded with a stern expression.
Three people sat on chairs on the balcony of the office.
Deus, Migo, and Zeke.
Deus sat down and glanced at the feather floating next to Zeke.
“Isn’t that Hamiel’s feather?”
“Yes•
“Are you dead?”
“I do not know.”
-He is not dead.
The feather answered.
Not only did he speak, but he also took on human form.
Just as Raguel left his alter ego, Hamiel also sent his alter ego to Zeke.
“Why aren’t you dead?”
“You sound like you regret it!”
“So what about the main body?”
“He was defeated by Nezar and was reduced to the elements. Originally, he should have come here and become his original body again
… but since Nezar is a being that can trap waves, he is still wandering around in his space.”
“Nezar?”
Deus opened his eyes and looked at Zeke.
“Did you find it?”
” yes.”
“where?”
“It was on Jupiter.”
“also!”
“Did you guess?” “It’s not a guess, but…
I thought
that kid would be on the biggest planet .”
“I went there with that thought in mind.”
“But why suddenly?”
“Because of my younger brother.”
“Regin? “Now that I think about it, it looks like he has returned to the kingdom.”
“I heard about something like an assassination group centered around Mr. Cadenza. “He said he would avenge Mr. Oridon’s death.”
“Revenge is frozen and left behind. It is natural for a warrior who starts a war to die when he is defeated. “If you didn’t want to die, you could just sit in a corner of the house and knit.”
Zeke smiled bitterly.
It wasn’t wrong, but it wasn’t something worth countering either.
Because Oridon was a friend to him.
“How did he… die?”
“We fought one on one. He died as a warrior. “Because I couldn’t squash your friend to death like a bug.”
Zeke lowered his head.
“thank you.”
“So what does that assassin group or something have to do with your search for Nezar?”
“Because when you see Nezar, you will go there
.”
“That’s… I can’t say no. Because I have some issues to resolve with that bastard. “You didn’t want me to run into your sister.”
“I failed to persuade Regin.”
“I’m afraid someone is from the Hollybeach family, so they’re stubborn.”
“From my oath as a knight to my friendship with my friends. “It’s not that I don’t understand that feeling.”
Deus said, rubbing his head.
“Anyway, they are annoying guys. “It would have been better if the war had not started in the first place.”
“Yes, but.”
“Well, that aside, what is this? Did he die again?”
“I think so. “Just as I was about to meet the messengers of the Underworld… I was wrapped in light and thrown here.”
“I was resurrected with divine power in this body.”
Zeke bowed his head at Hamiel’s words.
“thank you.”
“There is nothing to be thankful for. To burden you with a sacred duty. Zeke Van Jade, human champion.”
“Yes Archangel.”
“Behead Nezar.”
“That’s easier said than done.”
“I…
Deus abruptly interrupted Hamiel.
“Did you really lose?”
” yes?”
“You lost to Nezar?”
” yes.”
“No way.”
“Thank you for praising me, but you are really strong.”
“Nezar bastard won’t be able to defeat you with the power he has.”
“In fact, we were very close to winning.”
“yes? “They might have created a cloud system or something and installed a lot of servants on Jupiter, but that would still be a waste of electricity.”
“Yes.”
“You just have to endure it. Your speed is probably several times faster, so that big bastard
wouldn’t have even seen your heels. “How can you lose?”
“You talk like you saw it yourself.”
“The flow is obvious.”
“That’s it. But at the end… just when I thought I had caught it, something hit me.”
“Thunderstroke?”
“It wasn’t. Considering that even the blue dragon couldn’t defend it, it’s a fundamentally different power. It’s as if it’s not from this world…
Hamiel cleared his throat and opened his mouth.
“Hmm, I was going to talk about it…
but Deus cut her off again.
“It’s all about the barbell.”
” yes?”
“That bastard used a barbell.”
