Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 98

23. Facing the ruins ⑴

“The dragon is a creature created in the Silver Age.”

“Is that so?”

“I did not know?”

« O ” Hmm.

“Well, there’s no need to know that.” “Anyway, the fact that there were no demons in the Silver Age

ans that humans and you dragons may have lived in the demon world in the past .

“Then I think it’s natural to know about mugwort.”

“I thought you were stupid, but you seem a bit sharp.”

“Did you really live in the demon world?”

“I have a lot of questions. “How did a devil like you co to be born?”

“Just answer .”

“My answer is…. The continent of Jose was created in an era of chaos. “Okay?”

Deus felt montarily confused by her answer.

Does that an that the Jose continent did not exist before that?

What about humans?

Humans, dragons, giants and several sub-races of fairies. The continent of Jose where they all live was created 666 centuries ago?

Just as his mind was becoming dizzy with questions, Deus burst into laughter as he rembered what Yulgeum had just said.

How was it that a devil like was born?

Is this even God’s will?

After passing through the huge swarm of wasps, we arrived at the center of the flowers.

The weeds were growing cutely.

There was a woman who took root in a place where short wild grasses spread out like a well-manicured garden.

Delicate leaves covered the secret parts of the body, and beautiful flowers blood on the head.

She looked like neither a plant nor a human, and looked at Deus with curious eyes.

Deus saw the law.

“So what’s the explanation?”

“Mandarake.”

“Make it?”

“huh. It’s the sa na. “It’s up to you to call it.”

“Is that an elixir that will give you immortality if you pick it out and eat it?”

“There are rumors like that, but they are just word of mouth. “It’s just a mutant plant.”

“Is it okay to just set it on fire?”

“It’s not that simple. Because plant-type monsters are persistent. “Even if only one root remains, it will grow again and bother people.”

“It seems like you’ve been through a lot.”

“of course. “That’s why we live in the world.”

“A wonder… you an it’s a perfectly controlled space?”

“yes.”

Deus suddenly went crazy with one thought.

“Is the continent of Jose also a kind of land?”

“huh?”

“Didn’t you run away to avoid the contamination of mugwort? To the sky.”

“You’re really sharp today. “As if I were the devil.”

“What is Seulgi Seulgi?”

“It’s gore. Not used now. Anyway, the explanation is over. “Fix it yourself.”

“Do you not provide service for enemy weaknesses or sothing like that?”

” I need?”

“I thought it would be fun.”

As she approached Mandarake, mouthing whatever ca to mind, she opened her mouth.

“Aren’t you Yulgeum?” Yulgeum looked at the other person in surprise.

Mandarake speaks human language perfectly.

If you knew soone, there was no way you would forget it. But… she wasn’t in my mories.

“Who are you?”

“It was you, after all. Greetings to the Lord of the Crown.”

Yulgeum felt uncomfortable receiving Mandarake’s greeting.

I glanced at Deus out of the corner of my eye.

He looked interested. The mont Yulgeum saw that face, he felt even more uncomfortable.

“It’s surprising that there was soone who knew who I was that I didn’t know.”

“It’s natural that you don’t know. Even if I knew, it wouldn’t be .”

“What do you an?”

“That was when even my oldest branches were nestled in cotyledons.”

“Are you saying you saw in my seed form?”

“yes.”

It was difficult for Yulgeum to decide what expression to make as he looked at Mandarake, who was smiling brightly.

“Who is the owner of the crown?” Deus intervened.

“I don’t know.”

“I guess he had a nickna other than Jin Geum-yong.”

“I said there was nothing to know.”

“It seems like an embarrassing nickna. Is it like a legendary legend?”

“no!”

At that ti, a sharp vine wrapped itself around Deus’ neck and aid its saw-like leaves at his carotid artery.

“Who are you to be so rude? This person is the most noble person. “Be sure to be polite.”

“know. “It’s Jin Geum-yong.”

“He is not soone who should be compared to sothing like a dragon.”

“So, dragon god or divine dragon. Lord of Dragons.”

“What are you talking about?” Mandarake’s expression distorted. At that ti, Yulgeum

stopped her actions with a cold voice.

“If you go around spreading my secrets, I can’t help but think of you as an enemy.”

Mandarake lowered his head in surprise.

“I’m sorry, Great One.”

“This is Jose Continent. You, who know who I

am, dare to put down roots here. Are you saying you are not Leviathan Sun’s child?”

“I… am just looking for a way back. It was caught in a volcano and thrown here. “You could say I was cursed by a demon.”

“That’s sothing you have to ask that demon about.”

“Where on the continent of Jose can you find demons?”

Yulgeum laughed.

“congratulation. “I found one.”

“What is that…

Mandarake looked at Deus in surprise.

“Are you saying this person is a demon?”

“That too at the highest level.”

“Seven Dukes!”

“heat.”

Mandarake’s expression was full of surprise when he said the word “seven dukes,” but when he heard the word “more,” he trembled and took a step back.

“Demiurge!”

“Four, it’s .”

Deus raised his hand.

Mandarake hurriedly released the vine that had caught him.

But I was caught at the end.

“If you just do sothing that doesn’t exist, will it be used? “You should either kneel down and pray or offer an arm and a leg and apologize.”

Mandarake cut the vine and stepped back.

“Because of you, I… I ended up committing a big sin. I’m going to die. An angel will co down and take my head. send back “Send back down there.”

“First of all, why don’t you correct when you say it’s because of ? “Because it’s not what I told you to do.”

Deus said this and crossed his arms.

“I tried to light the fire and see what the screams would be like, but the excitent was ruined. What do we do?”

Yulgeum sighed.

“I don’t know either.”

“So you want to go back to the Demon World?”

Deus looked back at Mandarake and asked.

“Yes.”

“Then follow . “I don’t know when, but I’ll see.”

“What do you an?”

“If you work like a dog for , I’ll take you underground in return.”

“ for you? “What benefit is there?”

Deus snorted.

“Then either burn to death.”

Deus summoned the fire of purgatory in his hands. It was a fla of hell that would burn life itself just by touching it.

Mandarake’s expression twisted in fear.

Yulgeum said to Mandarake.

“I think it would be a good idea to trust him for now.”

“…Are you telling to believe in the devil?”

“yes.”

“You?”

“Then why not?”

Mandarake was taken aback by the question.

“sorry. How dare soone like talk to you…

“Don’t be so upset when we beco colleagues now. “I am just an adventurer, and this person is a Deus rchant.”

Mandarake was troubled as he looked at Yulgeum and Deus alternately.

Even if it blood here and devoured animals, the end was certain.

The soil was very different from his hotown.

I wasn’t afraid of animals, but dealing with the plants that thrived in this soil and climate was quite difficult.

If you continue to fight for roots and compete for sunshine, you will eventually beco exhausted and lose.

Because I was a loner.

I had no confidence in winning a fight against all the plants in the world.

I want to go back.

That instinct broke her fighting spirit.

“I will do as you say.”

“Then write your na on the pledge here.”

“There is no na.”

“Then just call it Lakera. But can you live without roots? “I think it would be a hassle to have to

carry the flower pot around .”

“You only need to take root when you sleep at night.”

“Okay then, let’s do that. “Write your na.”

“Yes, yes•

“Okay, add another slave.”

“Who are the slaves?”

“you. “Miss Raque.”

“I have no intention of becoming a slave.”

“here.”

Deus handed out the contract.

“Have you not read it?”

“You told . “If you help with my work,

I will take you to the demon world.”

“If you put it in writing, it ans that if you beco a slave and serve like a dog, I will send you to the land of mugwort when I feel like it.”

“I cannot agree with that statent.”

“If you sign it, it’s done.”

Deus rolled up the docunt and pushed it into subspace.

“Then, now that we have resolved one issue, shall we go back? “Gather up all the strange weeds nearby and follow .”

Mandarake looked at Yulgeum.

Resentnt was written all over his face. Yulgeum

scratched his cheek and said.

“It’s just rough to say, it’s not really that big. Even the Arch Liches call themselves slaves…

“Can I trust you?”

Yulgeum sighed briefly.

“I guarantee it.”

“…I will believe it if the owner of the crown guarantees it.”

Deus turned his head and looked at the two.

“But who owns the crown?”

“It’s just an old nickna.”

“The Silver Age?”

“A woman’s secrets are not to be inquired about.”

“is it? Anyway, let’s put Lake’s clothes on. “If you enter the city like that, you will be arrested.”

“ah!”

Yulgeum turned his head and looked at Lakhe. She took a root out of the ground and made it into a foot, and she was not wearing any clothes.

Yulgeum made clothes out of thin air.

“This is a gift from as an apology. “Now that we’re colleagues, I’ll talk comfortably.”

“Whatever you call , do whatever you feel comfortable with. “Thank you for the clothes.”

Lake bowed and put on the clothes that Yulgeum had given him.

Deus took Lake and returned to the carriage with Yulgeum.

The nearby monster plant had already been reabsorbed by Lakhe.

The carriage was also left lying on the road because it had lost the enemy it was fighting with.

Skatul looked at Lakke and smiled half-heartedly.

Sadimus was alert as if he sensed strength from her body, and Zeke smiled kindly, saying he was glad to see her.

“A slave, like a slave, must stand in the back.”

Deus pointed to the seat next to Sadimus with his chin.

Lake sighed briefly and stood on the protruding step at the back of the carriage.

The carriage ran again.

Zoryx Castle was now a short distance away.

As if he suddenly rembered sothing, Deus opened the back door and said.

“newcor.”

Lakhe answered politely.

This is why

I decided to do my best to achieve my goal of returning to my hotown.

“yes.”

“You should join the bet too. What is Joryx Castle like? Safe and completely defeated. People are massacred and all buildings are destroyed. “Which one do you think?”

“I’m not interested.”

“You have to do it no matter what. 1 gold.”

“…I don’t have 1 gold.”

“It’s okay because it will be covered by my salary. “Choose quickly.”

“Then just go to the middle…

“Okay, half wave. 1 gold for thousands of people killed and half the buildings destroyed.”

The bet was written down in the ledger.

Everyone is safe: Zeke.

Minor Damage: Yulgeum Skatul.

About Half Destroyed : Sadimus Raque.

Hell too: .

Deus glanced at the contents of the notebook and looked at the castle in the distance.

“It would be nice if it went as you guys think, but… it’s sohow ominous.” His words quickly

spread

to everyone’s hearts .

I hope nothing happens.

But that wish was in vain.

Deus said to everyone.

“Give 1 gold each.”
