Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 167

38. Looking at the Demon Sword (2)

Yulgeum sighed briefly.

She stroked the black sword.

“There isn’t much left. Maybe… today or tomorrow. “He must have been stimulated because Deus ca here.”

“What do you an? Could it be because I was given a new life without permission? Is God taking it away again?”

Signi returned from purgatory.

Guided by Deus, he wandered around the edge of hell for a year and eventually returned to the land of life.

This sword was the curse that arose because of him.

Am I going to die again?

As soon as Signy rembered these words, tears ca to her eyes.

I saw Deus.

Still, I get to see you again one last ti.

Is it a small gift from God?

“It’s not like that.”

Yulgeum sighed briefly.

” Alex.”

“Yes, Yulgeum.”

“Did you plan this?”

“Is that possible?”

“It’s a thod you might like.”

“I found out about it for the first ti today. “If I had known sooner, I would have taken Mr. Signi to the demon world sohow.”

“You cannot go against human free will.”

“I know.”

Deus lost his temper.

“What on earth are you two talking about? What is free will and who is

taking you to the demon world?”

“It seems like you really don’t know.”

Yulgeum looked straight into Deus’ eyes.

“I don’t know!”

“Well, no matter how much of a devil you are… you’re not shaless enough to lay hands on a 10-year-old.”

“What are you talking about? 10 years old. I doubt what I did to SIGNI…

Deus was startled and looked at SIGNI’s sword.

” Alex!”

“Yes, my lord.”

“You… told before.”

“What are you talking about?”

“So, what is your state of mind… Even if you just hold hands…

“That’s right.”

“Even if we just hold hands…

Deus stuttered and suddenly extended his hand to Signi.

There was no ti for Yulgeum to stop him.

Deus swallowed Signi into a black hole in his hand.

Yulgeum grabbed Deus’ wrist.

“What did you do! Take her to prison…

“Is that possible? “For now, I sent it to a safe place.”

“Put it back here! We talked about it earlier. “You cannot go against free will.”

Deus shakes his head.

“I’m confused, so can you give just a mont? “If you don’t believe , go with .”

Deus created a door with his palm.

Yulgeum went straight into it

. Then, Alex and Deus disappeared on the walls of Neuekan.

I made a chair for Signy.

Cover with a soft cushion so you don’t get tired even if you sit for a long ti.

A V-shaped incision was made in the back so that the lump on the back would not be disturbed.

Sitting in that chair, Signy was admiring the distant scenery of Eidos, the capital of the Demon World.

On the balcony of the office, Deus and Yulgeum Signi

were currently lost in their own thoughts.

Yulgeum sat on the balcony railing and rested her chin on her knees. I changed my braided legs several tis.

Deus had a truly complex face.

Only SIGNI was watching the scenery of the Demon World with eyes full of curiosity. It seed like she was the only one having fun.

“I’m saying this clearly! “I never imagined it would be like this!”

Deus raised his voice. However, he only received Yulgeum’s harsh gaze.

“This is the worst. Even avoiding responsibility.”

“Is there anyone who would take such a story seriously? They just hold hands…

Deus trailed off.

I haven’t been able to tell the truth to Signi yet.

I couldn’t bring myself to say it out loud.

That thing on your back…

“I thought about it calmly.”

Yulgeum cried out in a cold voice.

“How about erasing SIGNI’s mories?”

“Do you rember ? no, I do not want!”

“It’s not a decision based on emotions. “You forget about the fact that it grew on your back and go back to your daily life.”

“Is this really that bad? Of course, my brother was also excommunicated because of this sword, and there were more bad things than good things, but… I don’t feel like treating it like sothing that never happened.”

“It’s for you.”

“What is this?”

“I can’t tell you. “If that happens, other

emotions will be mixed in.”

Yulgeum looked at Deus and winked.

It was a look as if he was telling to make a decision.

“I have no intention of avoiding responsibility. Alex, that bastard is already excited…

“I guess so. “It’s a golden opportunity to throw away the 666 years that have passed.”

“Anyway, I need so more ti to think about it.”

“It’s too late after the incident happens. Do as I say. That’s best for both of us. Are you planning on leaving these hellish mories for SIGNI?”

“It’s so hell, it’s so hard to hear, isn’t it?”

“What if it’s not hell? “Do you know how bad it really is if you compare what you did to a human being?”

“No, that’s really unfair! That’s why we held hands in the first place. “I did it to save my life.”

“I’m at least talking to them because their motives were pure. Otherwise, we should break off relations long ago.”

SIGNI turned his head to follow the conversation between the two with an innocent smile on his face.

It was hard to understand because I couldn’t trace the pulse of the conversation, but it seed like he was happy just looking at it.

At that ti, a star rose into the sky with a sharp sound.

Pop pop pop!

The star exploded high up and turned into a fla.

A cluster of sparkling lights created a colorful pattern for a few seconds.

It was fireworks.

Signi’s eyes were taken by the beautiful fireworks she had seen for the first ti in her life. Chrysanthemums and roses

blood in large blooms against the

dark gray sky .

The fla that was drawing a few flowers and beautiful patterns suddenly began to engrave letters.

—Signi’s—

Signi was surprised when her na ca out.

Deus’ expression, who was watching the fireworks together, beca pale.

“Alex, you crazy guy!”

— This is the Demon Prince’s Association —

Deus placed one hand on his forehead and covered his face.

— I salute you.

The smile disappeared from Signy’s face.

Yulgeum shook his head and stood up.

He tapped Deus on the shoulder and disappeared sowhere.

“Let explain.”

“By fertilization… you an pregnancy, right?”

“So it’s different from human pregnancy.”

“I… am carrying Deus-sama’s child?”

“It seems that the Demon King has sothing called demonic spirit, and when he cos into contact with a woman, he goes astray. It’s not necessarily that kind of contact…

“Can I just hold your hand?”

“That’s what it looks like. But at the ti, I thought it was just a joke. “There’s no way that’s possible just by holding hands!”

« 3X ” X.

Signi burst out laughing.

Deus’ hand, which was struggling in embarrassnt, stopped.

“Is this funny?”

“Fuhahaha yes!”

“No, that’s why I made you like this.”

“I thought it might have sothing to do with Deus-sama, but I never imagined pregnancy.”

“So it’s a little different from pregnancy.”

“Of course it’s different. “There’s no way my baby’s house is in my back.”

“So this is it! It’s just that Mahon settled down and grew under your energy. But why is it so big? “Isn’t it true that you’re 10 years old as soon as you’re born?”

“ah! That really might be true. Father, I might bow down and say thank you for giving birth to . Phew.”

“So you think it’s funny!”

“yes. Deus-sama… are you in a bad mood?”

“huh?”

“Do you feel bad that I am raising Deus-sama’s child?”

“No, that’s not what I’m saying. Sorry. I am truly sorry! “At that ti, I had to save you, so there was nothing I could do.”

“What would you do if I were a man?”

“huh?”

“As you said, Ma-jeong doesn’t have to grow up in a baby’s ho. “Wouldn’t that be possible in a man’s body as well?”

“I don’t know! What do you know! “What would be the point of holding hands with a man for a year?”

“Master Deus.”

” why?”

“I don’t hold any grudges.”

“But…

“You can just think of it this way. Deus is the devil, right?”

“yes.”

“The devil is a being who tornts humans, right?”

“That’s

right,” Signi said, looking straight at Deus, who was scratching his cheek.

“In exchange for saving soone’s life, you are planting the devil’s baby seed. “Isn’t that enough to be like a demon lord?”

“What is it like to be a demon lord?”

“Sothing like this. A 10-year-old girl had this huge lump on her back for 10 years without even knowing it. “It is rather abnormal to make a life-threatening contract with the Demon King and not suffer this much penalty

.”

“It’s not sothing to be glossed over as a joke.”

“Deus-sama, I like it.”

“huh?”

“The fact is that this thing on its back is not an inconvenient hump, but is Deus-sama’s child.”

Signy said this and turned his head with a red face.

Deus ruffled his hair.

“Shit! “He was killed by Zeke.”

“Mr. Zeke.”

In the old devil’s whispering land where lava and sulfur smoke raged, Zeke remained silent as he looked at his sword and shield.

Catrun called out to him, as if he couldn’t bear the suffocating tension.

“Oh yes r

“Are you okay?”

” are you okay.”

“You’ve beco quiet a lot since you fought the Firebird yesterday.”

“I have sothing to think about. “The na of the firebird is Suzaku.”

“It’s in this sword and shield, right?”

“that’s right. “It’s an incredibly powerful being.”

“But Zeke won.”

“Suzaku was just testing my strength. “The power is close to infinite.”

“How about comparing it to the Demon King?”

“Hmm…

Zeke crossed his arms.

“That’s a stupid question. Mr. Zeke is the hero who killed the Demon King. The Ender!”

“He wasn’t perfect. “The Demon King, with his perfect power, is a terrifying being that can only be stopped by all of humanity working together as one.”

As Zeke spoke, he was thinking of Deus.

Have you beco stronger?

If we fight now, can we win?

“But Zeke has beco stronger now. “Because I have obtained the power of Suzaku!”

“I actually got scared.”

“The devil?”

“no.”

Zeke lifted his sword and swung it slightly.

It seed like it could cut anything. Even if it is the devil’s horn, it can be struck with a single sword.

“Why did God give this strength? “Isn’t there a crisis approaching for humanity, to the point where we need to be

given this kind of powerful power ?”

“Why do you say such ominous things?”

“I hope it’s rain, but… the first hero probably wasn’t able to defeat the Demon King because he had outstanding abilities. To what extent did God work like that? Power is put down because it has a place to be used. “I’m not really happy that that power is coming to .”

“As expected, Zeke, you think differently. “I just want to beco stronger.”

“It hasn’t been that long since I started thinking about this too. “Because when I was young, I was much weaker and more insignificant than you are now.”

Zeke looked back on the events that happened that year.

It was still unknown why Deus ca to the human world.

“Everything in the world will be done according to the Lord’s will. “Does the fact that this power has co to an that the devil’s power has beco much stronger?”

“You’re the 666-year-old Demiurge, right? There are less than 10 years left…

I will be 28 then. “We need to work harder to avoid holding back Generation Zero.”

After collecting Suzaku’s weapons and shield, Zeke returned to Terra End with Katrun.

I felt like I needed to think of another way to et the short charcoal guy.
