Chapter 238 – Invasion of the Demon King of Highgre (30)
“Hey you. You really don’t know me?”
“You said you didn’t know!!! Don’t keep asking the same question, it’s annoying!! I don’t know anything like you! I don’t know! I saw it for the first time!!!”
Kim Ho-young was carefully observing the face of the Highgre demon king who struggled like a child.
Familiar.
But it’s not a face I’ve seen recently.
If she’s a woman you’ve recently had, no matter how much you’re not interested in her, you should be able to remember her, but the fact that she’s still vague means she’s a woman you’ve seen a long time ago.
“Hygre demon lord, you… Isn’t this the first time you’ve been to Earth? Didn’t you come to Earth and meet me in the past?”
“No!! The real Earth is the first!!”
“Lie. Then how do you know Okmaehyang? It makes no sense.”
“That… !!”
—Demon King Haigre recalled the day he met Jade Mae-Hyang 50,000 years ago on a deserted planet with only sand and dust blowing.
No, there was an ambiguity in expressing that we met.
Jade Mae-hyang was just standing in front of her eyes for a moment.
Rather than ‘meeting’, it was closer to ‘I woke up and a woman was looking down at me’.
“… Who are you… ? No i… Who is it… ?”
“Ah, it seems that the memory has been successfully erased.”
“… ?”
Ok Maehyang at that time was a bit younger than now, but it didn’t look much different, and her outfit was an improved hanbok dress that she always wore.
She pressed the tip of the demon lord’s nose with her gun in her right hand and fired a ray of light.
「Kyaaaaa!!」
The devil’s outfit, which was in rags, changed to a high-legged swimsuit.
For 50,000 years, the legendary swimsuit that served as the trademark of the Demon King of Highgre was worn from that moment on.
However, the demon king only changed his clothes, and in a strict sense, he was not brainwashed.
It was because he didn’t shout highgre or pose highgre.
It was right to see that he was literally just happy.
“Hmm… As expected, there is no brainwashing effect if I do it. I don’t have any talent for this kind of thing.”
“What, what are you… What have you done to me No, who are you before that!! Who am I? What? Why can’t I remember anything?”
The demon king wrapped his head around his head and tried to recall any memory, but the tunnel inside his head leading to the past was only filled with pitch black darkness.
Nothing, I don’t remember
“Since my memory has already been erased, nothing will come to mind even if I try hard.”
“You… Do you know something about me?!」
The high gray demon king grabbed her jade plum dress and hung on.
The fact that there was no past was anxiety and fear itself.
Who I was, where I came from, and what I do were all hidden behind a veil, so it was frustrating and uncomfortable to the point of death.
I would like to know. Who I am
“If you want to know that, increase your strength.”
“Strength… ?”
Ok Mae-hyang gave the ray gun she was holding to the demon king, no… At that time, let alone the demon king, he handed it over to a woman who was nothing.
“With this gun, I brainwash people, form forces, and conquer the universe. If you do, someday you will meet someone connected to your memories.”
“Brainwashing? Universe? Conquest? What do you mean why did I do that… 」
“If you want to do it, do it. Or die of starvation here.”
“… Too bad… 」
Now called Planet Haigre, affluent (thanks to tribute from other planets), it was an uninhabited planet at the time where not a single tree grew.
“You must be strong. It’s your role to make that person happy by becoming an attractive toy like first-class beef that you never get tired of eating. Well then, good job」
Jade Mae-Hyang fiddled with the strange machine and then disappeared like fog in front of his eyes, and the Demon King, who was left alone, sat idly for a long time.
I didn’t know what it was, I was anxious, angry, and dumbfounded… Complex emotions washed over my heart like a wave, but the conclusion was one.
“I can’t die like this… Let’s see if it’s Okmaehyang or not… I must survive and find you… At that time, I was so strong that I couldn’t compare to now… I’ll surprise you and turn it upside down!」
She has gone on a long journey.
With no food or water, he gnawed his teeth and went to a nearby planet and shot a ray gun at a restaurant employee to get food for free.
It took a full hundred years to brainwash all the inhabitants of the planet, but as she accumulated know-how, the speed gradually increased. After 1,000 years, she conquered the galaxy, and after 10,000 years, her fame spread throughout the universe.
It was around this time that it became difficult to manage the overgrown high-gre people, so they were divided into ranks such as pantyhose soldiers, staff, and three generals.
After that, boring days of not being able to conquer because there were no planets left to conquer continued, and the demon king wanted an opponent equal to himself.
And finally, I succeeded in encountering a strong guy who never felt bored.
“—That’s how it happened! Okay?! I’ve traveled a long way to meet you, but I’ve never met you before!”
“Okay? I mean… “
Okay… I have succeeded in meeting the guy I want to meet.
The problem was that Kim Ho-yeong was absurdly stronger than anyone had imagined.
I found Kim Ho-young, but wouldn’t it mean nothing if I lost?
The Demon King is equal, but she is only a little weaker than him, so she wanted an opponent who made her win comfortably after a successful match.
“Hmm… You mean you have amnesia too? In a sense, it’s nice to see you’re on the same side. But even if you are an astronaut, how did Ok Mae-hyang appear in the story of 50,000 years ago? It makes no sense. Ordinary earthlings do not live 100 years… Umm… Ok Mae-hyang’s actions have been bizarre since the old days. Anyway, is there any possibility that you met me before you lost your memory? Because I didn’t exist 50,000 years ago? But I feel like I’m missing something… “
Watching Kim Ho-young, who was leisurely in trouble, Haigre Demon King gnashed his teeth.
50,000 years.
For 50,000 years, he raised his criminal record and built his career.
In the meantime, I have met all the stars, but there is not one person who has not been brainwashed.
It has been 50,000 years since I thought of victory as something in my pocket.
It was really unacceptable to lose to someone now.
Defeat… That’s not my part
It’s a gift I’m giving to my enemies, not an ordeal I myself have to go through.
‘What humiliation is this? I didn’t come to Earth to be humiliated like this’
‘I came to surprise Ok Mae-hyang with my incredibly strong power, and to brainwash and play with the guy Ok Mae-hyang said’
‘The reason I said I wanted a strong man was just to have fun’
‘This… This is me being fooled!! Nothing like this is fun!!’
I tried to hit him, use magic, take him to space and fight dangerous adults, but to no avail.
No matter what I do, I can’t kill that monster… ?
“Why… ? That guy’s subordinates were well brainwashed. Even Kim Hee-ae, my real mother, and Himeko, my best confidante, were brainwashed into high-gre human beings if they got caught in my hands, right? But why only Kim Ho-young… Is it only Kim Ho-yeong who can’t do what I want!”
“—Are you stupid?! How did you get the title of Highgre Demon King?!”
A helping hand reached out to the demon king struggling with frustration.
Ok Mae-hyang, who was watching the fight between the two in the spaceship, was giving advice to the demon king with a loudspeaker.
“Shoot Hoyoung with the high-gre beam!! That’s the standard of Haigre brainwashing! You must not forget the basics, you idiot!!”
“That’s right! You forgot the ray gun?!”
Lately, I’ve been able to brainwash easily without using a ray gun, so I forgot about it.
Yes…
Originally, brainwashing wasn’t the basic process of hitting people with a high-gre ray gun.
Did you forget something so obvious?
“By the way, your fight is being broadcast all over the world, so keep in mind that there are 8 billion viewers and fight hard so that it can be a fight that you are not ashamed of!!”
Like a boxing promoter risking his life on box office success, Ok Mae-hyang asked for a hot game and turned off the loudspeaker.
The demon king could not understand her intentions.
‘I was going to lose without moving if I stayed still, but you deliberately reminded me of the existence of the high-gre ray gun… After all, does that guy want me to win and Kim Ho-young to lose?’
The Highgre Demon King and the Highgre Ray Gun are the strongest combination. It is an invincible combination that cannot be defeated.
There is not a single human being who can withstand being hit by a ray gun.
“… Well, no matter what Okmae-hyang’s intentions are, once the means of victory are in hand, it would be foolish not to use them, right?”
The Demon King pointed the ray gun at Kim Ho-young.
The guy stood still with a stupid expression on his face, not even thinking about running away.
I don’t know if it’s an expression of confidence or ignorance, but this time Kim Ho-young made a mistake.
Now, when he overlooks the dangers of the ray gun, is his chance.
“Now, let’s put an end to this fight, Kim Ho-young. Of course, it will be me who wins.”
“Anyway. I’m just getting tired of it.”
Just as the strongest technique in boxing is one-two, the original, most basic technique determines victory or defeat in actual combat.
The fact that the Demon King of Highgre foolishly forgot the source of the brainwashing technique, the Highgre Ray Gun, was almost defeated.
However, she managed to come to her senses and now had a strategy for victory in her hands.
As long as there is this ray gun that can never be avoided, and once hit, it will be brainwashed into a high-gre human, the game is now decided as a victory for this side.
King Haigre felt sympathy for Kim Ho-young, not enough to calm his anxious and fearful mind.
Because it’s such an obvious battle who will win.
“Goodbye Kim Hoyoung… You were a pretty strong guy. Even if I become a high-grey human, I will not forget you.”
As soon as he said goodbye, he pulled the trigger.
The most powerful brainwashing substance in the universe flew to Kim Ho-young in a zigzag along a beam of light.
The demon king followed the end of the beam with his eyes.
The moment it touches Kim Ho-young, the game is over.
Through Yeongxiang, which was relayed by Okmaehyang, all the earthlings watched with bated breath as the beams were fired.
And finally, the moment Kim Ho-young gets hit by the beam,
“Hey, I hate wearing tight swimsuits.”
Kim Ho-young hit the beam with her palm,
“You wear it. You say you’re a high-gre demon king, but aren’t you dereliction of duty without doing high-gre? Be yourself or a highgre human. I mean, lead by example.”
He changed the direction of the light beam and returned it to the Demon Lord Haigre.
“… To?”
The target-changed light beam speeds up and flies to the demon king like an arrow.
Fast.
Kim Ho-young’s throwing speed was much faster than when Mawang shot with a gun.
Even after seeing it with his own eyes, the Demon King of Highgre hardened his body at the unbelievable reality and only broke out in a cold sweat.
“W-was that something you could take back? Lie. I’ve never had anything like this… Kyaaaaa!!!”
—Haigre Demon King was hit by a ray gun.
It was the moment when she, who had only brainwashed others, opened her eyes to Haigre’s pleasure for the first time.
