[ 3rd Hellgate (2) ]
How many hours jeon.
The kingdom of Baal, ranked first in the Demon World, had countless armies lined up. The end could not be seen even beyond the horizon.
So monsters were as big as mountains and so demons were smaller than mice. Their strength was not necessarily proportional to their size, but there were cases where they trampled or swallowed each other without knowing.
Their combined breath created a terrible poisonous fog. Most living things would wither and die just by being there.
Crrrrrrr…!
Kiyaaaaa!
Perhaps because the distance between their bodies was so close that their bodies touched each other, they were seen growling at each other in various places.
However, even though so many fierce and ferocious creatures from the demon world gathered in one place, no significant clashes occurred.
To be precise, I didn’t dare to cause a collision.
[Be quiet.]
Gooooooo…!
A voice that weighs down the entire surrounding area with its presence.
The monsters trembled, letting out suppressed moans, and the demons looked up at the sky with faces full of respect and fear.
Baal.
The Demon King of Demon Kings was looking down on them from the sky.
Baal looked down at the beings beneath his feet with arrogant eyes. Hundreds of thousands of Demon World soldiers knelt before their king, and even other Demon Lords were in a lower position than him.
[You have already failed two hunts.]
The army of the demon world cowered at Baal’s voice, which was filled with distant anger.
Baal called this ‘hunting’ rather than ‘war’. Hunting is sothing the strong do to the weak, so a hunter who returns after failing to hunt is of no use.
[Plus, there was one who failed the hunt and shalessly returned.]
When Baal stretched out his hand, a demon trapped in a large cage was summoned there.
The devil, who once had flaming wings, a mighty body, and massive horns, lost all of them and was locked in a cage, trembling.
[Wow, king. Just one more chance….]
[This guy was one of the officers in my legion, but he ran away because he was afraid of being hunted.]
The demon kings looked at the demon in the cage with pitiful eyes, and the demons on the ground jeered.
The monsters drooled as if the demon inside the cage with its flesh exposed looked delicious.
Public execution.
Baal intended to execute the fugitive to prevent the sa thing from happening again.
[Ha, but that’s…!]
The devil in the cage had a face that wanted to protest sothing.
The devil participated in the Hell Gate held in Cairo. As one of the lieutenants of the Demon Count, who was the commander-in-chief at the ti, he went on a mission to destroy a human city.
At first everything went according to plan. Humans, unprepared for battle, were weak and could tear, destroy, and eat at will.
…Until a human woman appeared who exploded all the demons with fluttering red hair.
[O Baal! Didn’t you see that woman too?]
The devil in the cage scread like a fit while trembling. Perhaps because he already had a premonition of his fate, he poured it out without hesitation.
[I’m going to burn down the entire army of the demon world all by myself! The power that pinned the demon count to the ground before he could even count to five! A being that kills soone by slowly burning them instead of killing them right away as if they were playing around!]
It was a fear that was imprinted in their souls. The devil in the cage scread in evil.
[No matter how much you are, you can’t call that woman prey!]
[How dare you…]
Baal glared at the demon who dared doubt his power. The fire of hell burned brightly in his eyes.
However, the devil in the cage seed to have gone completely crazy from fear and continued to giggle and speak rapidly.
[Do you know why she sent alive? I have sothing to tell you when I go back. I didn’t want to be afraid of making you angry, but if it’s going to disappear anyway, I have to do everything!]
[…….]
Baal was curious, so he left the demon in the cage alone.
The demon cleared his voice a few tis and then suddenly imitated the voice of a human woman.
“Go and tell Baal. I don’t have ti today, so I’ll just go, but next ti I get caught, it will be in my hands. Hehehehe!”
The last “Kuhihihi!” was the laughter of a completely crazy devil.
Baal laughed as if it was ridiculous and looked at the devil in the cage. And I strengthened my grip.
[Interesting.]
-Kwazijic!
Blood flowed from Baal’s hand. Baal shook off his hand and threw the demon, who had beco a piece of at, to the floor.
The monsters that found fresh food chewed it in front of them and fought to eat it.
Jeokjeokjeok.
Baal thought as he looked at that.
‘You’re going to kill ?’
The cries of the devil in the cage just now did not spread outside.
The mont the devil ntioned ‘that woman’, Baal blocked all surrounding sounds.
Normally, I wouldn’t have even laughed at such a warning. However, Baal made a subtle expression as he rembered the red-haired woman he had seen in Cairo.
‘I never thought there would be a being with that much power.’
Baal heard from Pandemonium, with whom he had secretly ford an alliance, that the woman was called the ‘Child of Fire’.
Pandemonium claid ownership of the woman.
They said that you should never kill them and that if you capture them, they will definitely take them for themselves.
Baal said so, but his intentions were a little different.
‘I’m getting interested.’
While Baal was lost in his thoughts for a mont, Vassago, who was sitting behind him, asked him.
[Are you just going to keep standing there? They are all putting up with it because of you, but… as you know, they don’t have much patience.] [
…I see.]
Baal nodded and looked around at the demonic forces gathered in his kingdom.
Soon his gaze stopped in front of one demon lord.
[The vanguard is Astaroth. I will leave it to you.]
[Please leave it to .]
Demon King Astaroth, ranked 29th in the Demon World, stepped forward.
He was famous for being beautiful among the demon kings belonging to Baal’s faction. Its six pairs of wings were covered with pure white feathers, and a soft light flowed from its entire body.
A demon king who resembles an angel.
To so demon lords, it was an object of contempt, but no one would say such a thing openly.
[Because there will be no third failure.]
The mont Astaroth spread his wings with a beautiful smile, his power covered the plains.
The mont Astaroth’s energy, resembling starlight, covered the army, monsters and demons stimulated by its power roared in unison.
Kyaaaaa!
Kyaaaaa!
It wasn’t just Astaroth.
[Let’s go.]
[We’re finally leaving.]
[I’m already looking forward to the taste of human blood.] Poras,
ranked 31st, Storas, ranked 36th, Malpas, ranked 39th, Binet, ranked 45th, Hagenty, ranked 48th, 63 Andras above stood up.
[Then I will return with a report of victory.]
The army of the demon world poured into the wide-open dinsional passage, and finally, the seven demon lords entered one by one.
After a while, Baal muttered as he looked around his empty kingdom.
[I guess I should prepare the next army.]
[Are you already feeling defeat?]
Before he knew it, Vassago had co to his side, smiling. Agares with a dissatisfied expression was also there.
[Change your seat.]
After a while, the three overlords of the demon world moved their seats.
[Baal. Why aren’t you doing your best?]
Agares asked without hiding his dissatisfaction. As he beca angry, a mild earthquake occurred in the area.
[What do you an?]
[Two demon lords have already been defeated and the demon army has been defeated twice. But the vanguard is Astaroth? Shouldn’t they have sent at least a demon king who is in the top 10!]
Kugugugung…!
The earthquake that began centered around Agares beca more and more severe, as if it would not remain silent unless a proper answer was given.
Agares.
He is a second-in-command in the demon world who has a fiery temperant and is always targeting the authority of Baal.
However, a sly smile appeared on Baal’s lips. He knew Agares well as he had been watching him for a long ti.
[That’s exactly why. Humans are stronger than we thought. To be honest, it won’t be easy to win.]
[So we need to fight with even more power. What should we do by sending in diocre troops…]
[Look. Why not listen to this friend for a mont?]
Vassago diated between the two and listened. Agares gave a disapproving look while Baal gave a look of gratitude.
Vassago is the lowest ranking among the three, but if he sides with one of the two, he could change the structure of the demon world.
Baal asked.
[Agares. Why do you think humans are strong?]
[That’s because they have already used the Dinsional Hub to attract races from all different dinsions.]
Baal laughed at Agares’ answer to whether he thought of as a fool.
[To be exact, it is because one human has united multiple dinsions into one.]
Jiiiing-!
A magic mirror opened in front of them and the figure of a great man appeared within it.
His face looked noticeably gaunt compared to a month ago. I could not hear any sounds around , as if they were watching from afar.
[Landlord. He can see the future. With that ability, he established a dinsional alliance and knew how we would attack.] [
In the end, the two demon kings fell victim to the trap he set.] As
Vassago added, Baal nodded.
At that ti, I saw Daein in the mirror, coughing up blood. A hearty smile appeared on Baal’s lips.
[But every ti he uses a prophecy, he loses life. Foolishly, I had no choice but to expose my most fatal weakness due to the jealousy of my fellow humans.]
Agares was not a fool either. If you have explained it at this point, you will be able to fully understand the intention of Baal’s words.
[so? Are we just going to waste ti fighting until he dies?]
But that just didn’t suit Agares’ temperant.
Baal laughed evilly.
[no. I plan to hasten the ti of his death.]
Sssssut….
An evil energy emanated from Baal’s body.
The reason he was at the highest position in the demon world for so long was because he was not only more powerful than anyone else, but also possessed sufficient cunning.
[Landlord. If he dies, the Earth will easily fall into our hands.]
Daein was the focal point of the Dinsional Allied Forces and at the sa ti its fatal weakness.
Multidinsional races were gathered around him. The mont he dies, that unity will weaken and prophecy, which is no different from foul play, will no longer be usable.
[There are two ways. Either quickly consu the prophecy or kill him directly.]
[Indeed… there is no need to waste power in a head-on fight.]
[It’s been a while since we’ve co to an understanding.]
Vassago nodded as if impressed. .
Baal smiled happily as he looked at Vassago, who easily agreed with his opinion today.
[…Right. I understand what you an.]
Agares still had a disapproving expression, but in the end, she had no choice but to agree.
Baal said with a wide smile.
[Soon, that dinsional hub will be ours. And we will beco the rulers of the universe!]
However, Vassago was staring at Baal’s joyful appearance with calm eyes.
‘It’s probably yours, not ours.’
Three overlords who rule the demon world.
However, in the end, it is Baal who controls the demon world according to his will.
Even if Vassago and Agares combined their forces, they were barely on par with Baal.
‘It’s been an excruciatingly long ti since the position of power has changed.’
Vassago had been unhappy with that fact for quite so ti.
Maybe the landlord knew that and made such a suggestion to him.
Vassago looked at the great man reflected in the magic mirror.
‘Now it all depends on what you do.’
A few hours later, the third Hellgate began in various parts of the Earth.
