〈 The Descendance of the Demon King (3) 〉
The Abnormal raid operation was concluded quickly.
As expected, it was worth it to bring in Outerica’s best rcenaries, who were expensive, as it took only a few hours from the attack on the main base to the death of Duke Goeran.
‘It’s also thanks to the fact that there was a slight ti speed control function in 「World of Macheon」.’
Even taking that into account, this speed was unprecedented.
As everything ended like a flash of lightning, there were quite a few people even within the huge faction, Abnormal, who had not yet fully grasped the situation.
The mbers only heard that their ho base was being attacked and were not provided with the latest information.
The troops under his command were dispatched to provide support, not thinking that everything was already over.
The task of swallowing them whole was like eating rice cake while lying down.
“What did you say your na was?”
“…I am Tabur Pokan.”
“Yes, Tabur. Now you roughly understand the situation, right? Or do you still need further explanation? Or do you still want revenge sohow?”
A large demon resembling a tiger swayed at the sound of a captivating voice that captivated the soul.
At first, he tried to hold on sohow…
but now he clearly understood.
That resisting this absolute being in front of you is nothing but futile and blasphemous.
He judged the situation calmly.
Isn’t the Demon World a world of strength and self-respect anyway?
However, the king who had punished the wicked Duke Goerang was now in front of him.
Not a darkness or a devil dragon, but the true king of the demon world.
What is this but fate?
Thump—
In the end, unable to control the boiling impulse, he knelt down on the spot.
Bowing your head with extre respect to the person in front of you.
“What you are saying is absolutely unfair! Tabur Pocan of the Taino people! I will be loyal to Hella from now on! “I will always be at the forefront of Hela’s path!”
A brave figure shouting loudly as if to show off his loyalty.
Hela smiled happily and nodded.
With this, another earl-level high-ranking devil ca under his command.
Considering that it took a lot of ti and effort to ‘convince’ one person not long ago, this could be said to be a very significant change for her.
‘It must be related to the ssage that ca to mind imdiately after defeating Goerang.’
Unless you are playing house, even in the human world, if you want to call yourself a king, you need recognition from the international community. Wouldn’t it be great if that was a demon king standing at the top of a world called the Demon World?
In that sense, ‘expanding her influence as a demon lord’ was like a growth event for her where all her abilities were strengthened.
It includes not only combat abilities encompassing physical and magical powers, but also all capabilities as a monarch, including charm and charisma.
‘Anyway, it’s a good start, right? Let’s keep going like this.’
With the active cooperation of those in key positions at Abnormal, the absorption process gained further montum.
With stronger influence, variables were controlled while people who had been waiting in advance stepped forward to clear the congested traffic.
And as the situation progressed to that point, the number of people who sensed potential in this area, even if it was not necessarily fascination, began to increase one by one.
“Is it already like this? This much control over the organization. “You’re very resourceful, aren’t you?”
“I was just waiting to see when we would be able to escape from the collapsing castle. This might be…”
“It might be another opportunity.”
In fact, it was not a bad story even for the existing mbers of Abnormal, who did not have much loyalty to Duke Goeran.
With the addition of many external forces, including Dream Walker, the size of the faction has grown, and hasn’t the new leader proven his ability by killing a peacock-level demon and taking his place?
‘If I go to Dark Nest now, the treatnt won’t be so good.’
‘If I can make a contribution here and beco a close associate of the new Demon King…!’
‘The Demon Dragon Duke was really annoying, but it turned out well.’
In this way, the huge faction ‘Helheim’, which absorbed most of the existing Abnormal, appeared on the front page.
Overtaking Demoniac of the Duke of Darkness, who was affiliated with Abnormal, he quickly took second place in the size of the Demon World faction.
A sudden change that changed the landscape of the demon world, which was slowly approaching the end of the war.
Naturally, other factions that were keenly aware of the rapidly changing situation also had no choice but to react sensitively.
Of course, Demoniac is embarrassed that the captain of the alliance forces has changed in an instant.
Even Dark Nest, which was in the midst of a hegemony that was just around the corner.
***
Basent of the Dark Nest.
Ken Miyamoto, with a nervous expression, walked slowly across the pitch-black darkness.
‘Whoa, this is it….’
He had recently discovered the essence of a marquis-level demon and was able to successfully land in the heart of the Dark Nest.
To begin with, there are only four marquis-level demons in their faction, which boasts the largest scale in the Demon World.
As the historical value of being a legacy from the invasion of the continent was added to the precious item, it was an achievent that was enough to imdiately win the duke’s trust.
‘Well, that wouldn’t have been possible if I wasn’t a high-ranking devil like a count. ‘I’ve been indifferent to organizational life and a bit out of touch, but it’s not to the point where I can’t be treated well.’
And in the process, he was able to understand the reason why he was dispatched, the ‘object of the devil that had spread across the earth’, was needed.
The driving force that allowed the Dark Nest to finally gain an overwhelming advantage in a war that had lasted for hundreds of years—.
‘I never would have thought that was the ingredient to bring in those monsters.’
Items that were created in the Demon World but have accumulated karma for a long ti outside the Demon World.
That was the dium that brought those unknown monsters here.
The sa was true for the marquis-level demonic essence he brought with him.
It’s probably much stronger than other common diums and can be used to summon many monsters.
And that will have a significant impact in making the Demon Dragon Duke the final winner of the Demon King Race.
‘…I can’t leave it like that.’
Ken’s expression, which had been extrely tense, beca cold.
A pair of eye lights burned fiercely in the darkness.
Although he was now a mber of the Dark Nest’s ranks, his heart had long since turned elsewhere.
‘Helheim….’
A new faction that has beco a hot topic recently.
The power created by a super-high-ranking demon nad Hela, who suddenly appeared, murdered Duke Goerang Sipar and took away everything from him, was of unprecedented interest even in the Dark Nest.
‘I feel like I want to leave there right away, but…’
I couldn’t do that just yet.
Because now he was doing sothing more important than joining Helheim, which only he could do, and helping out with one hand.
‘The Demon Dragon Duke is the biggest obstacle to Hela’s ascension to the position of Demon King. And I still haven’t figured out what else he’s hiding.’
Ken was the advance guard who discovered the hidden numbers of the Demon Dragon Duke and the fatal dagger secretly stabbed by Hela.
He had no doubt that he was the loyal subject who best understood his master’s will and that he was also his most trusted subordinate.
“…You’re all there.”
How long has it been since I walked like that while lost in thought?
He was finally able to pass through the dark passage and reach his destination.
“Whoa.”
He took a deep breath, opened the iron door in front of him, and slowly entered.
What caught his eye right after that.
It was a space filled with all kinds of rituals and miscellaneous items, including bones and skull accessories, and a magic circle drawn with blood.
“Hmm.”
He let out a soft sigh in the vicious atmosphere, as if a summoned demon would co out at any mont.
Then he rembered that he was the devil and lightly took a bite.
‘They said I could deliver the goods to the person in charge here. Wait, where did you go?’
This was one of the places where the rituals necessary to open the ‘door’ were perford.
In so ways, it is no exaggeration to say that this is the most important place for the Demon Dragon Duke.
He slowly looked around, internally pleased that the person in charge was away.
I was hoping that I might be able to get so important information.
‘I was able to co in now because of an errand to deliver an offering, but I don’t know when I’ll be able to co here again.’
From the fact that they used a high-ranking devil of the earl level as an errand boy, we could see how thoroughly this place was managed.
The reason he was able to co this ti was probably because his security level increased by saving valuable items.
He had been looking around the ceremony hall, trying so hard to pretend to be calm, but the mont he went behind the large pillar, he couldn’t help but be shocked.
“…That?”
There, a gigantic being was imprisoned in a miserable state, barely breathing.
Nurous restraints, including bandages and chains with all kinds of strange characters engraved on them, bound his freedom, and stakes, barbed hoses, and wires were packed all over his body and connected to sowhere.
Just looking at the sight, which looked like there was no place at all, was enough to make frown, but the real problem was sothing else.
“A large Balrog that appears to be twice its normal size. And if it has four pairs of horns…”
Karakul, Duke of Tuma.
One of the masters of the great power that once divided the demon world into four was trapped in this basent with a terrible appearance.
As a living sacrifice of an unknown consciousness.
‘I thought he was already dead, but was he still alive?’
Ken stared at the being blankly.
I never would have thought that Duke Tuma would end up like this in a place like this.
‘…Well, if you’re a peacock-level demon, you’re the best sacrifice, regardless of conditions.’
Anyway, it seed clear that the Demon Dragon Duke was planning sothing more with this.
Ken, who was nodding his head slowly, naturally turned his gaze elsewhere.
Actually, there was one thing that caught my eye from earlier.
A door visible on the large pillar behind the imprisoned Duke Tuma.
Although this ceremony hall was structurally divided into sections, I was particularly concerned because there was no such thing as a separate space.
‘Why is there a door only there? ‘Because what’s inside?’
Ken swallowed without realizing it and slowly moved forward.
It wasn’t just curiosity.
It felt like sothing unknown was calling to .
The feeling that the body instinctively wants to head there.
He stopped in front of the door, feeling his heartbeat starting to beat more and more violently for so reason.
And the mont I carefully grasped the handle—.
“warning. You are not allowed inside yet.”
An emotionless voice flowed into Ken’s ears.
A voice heard after neutralizing his detection.
He was shocked and quickly turned around.
Before he knew it, a tired-looking woman wearing a shabby gown was looking at him with wide eyes.
“apologize. I’m sorry if I surprised you. introduction. The full na is still there. I am Sodian. “I’ve already heard about you.”
A woman introduces herself in a strange way and greets her politely.
However, his expression remained motionless, as if he were wearing a mask.
‘She’s like a robot.’
But I couldn’t look at those things lightly.
Because she was a marquis-level demon who was in charge of this place and the only researcher.
Moreover, considering that it is her ho ground that appears to be magical…
“Guide. “Let’s leave that behind and co here.”
Ken obediently let go of the door handle and followed her, who had started walking ahead of her.
It was a little disappointing, but I couldn’t help it.
No matter how much I resisted now, I was an opponent I could never defeat.
He slowly turned his head and looked behind him.
A huge Balrog that was completely restrained and about to die, and a door behind it.
After staring at it for a mont, he turned around and followed Sodian.
There was no need to move in a hurry now.
There was still plenty of ti left, and if I waited, the opportunity would co soday.
***
Burning—
Bright red flas rose up.
A fire that I experienced just recently.
But the user had completely changed.
“oh! Isn’t it great? Davidson.”
Hela, impressed by that, nodded in satisfaction and tapped the back of the monster she was riding.
Imdiately after that, a bright red fla ca out of his mouth again.
It was the “Hellfire” obtained after devouring Duke Goeran’s entire huge body.
‘This is an unexpected harvest. ‘I never thought I could get sothing like this.’
I was filled with gratitude for Sipar, who was no longer dead.
There was so much he left behind for himself.
No matter how you look at it, this was a tree that gave generously.
“Hmm.”
At that ti, an uncomfortable cough ca from the guide next to .
Apparently, the stream of fire coming from Davidson’s mouth seed threatening.
‘Well, actually, it’s not wrong to say that it’s a threat. It’s also a demonstration of force.’
Hela shrugged lightly.
The place where she was now was not an area of Helheim that was growing rapidly recently.
This place is a bit far from that area—.
“We have brought you a guest, the Duke.”
It was territory occupied by the Demoniac of the Duke of Darkness.
She had now co directly to et the owner of the place.
“Take it inside.”
Squeak—
The door opened slowly.
Beyond that, I saw the other person sitting quietly in his seat.
An extrely suspicious-looking person, wearing a flowing black robe and a goat skull on his head, slowly turned around.
As the blue natural flowers glow from their eye sockets.
“Hehe, that’s fun.”
Hela, who was lying down on Davidson’s wide back, jumped down.
A bright smile appeared on her lips.
