Chapter 178 – 16. Rejection Is Refusal.
16. Rejection is refusal.
Work on the 11th and 9th floors that is becoming a hot topic every day.
Countless people other than the Song family lived on the 9th floor, but it evaporated due to this incident.
Naturally, the victim felt great sadness, but this was the tower.
The thoroughness of the weak meat sprinkled salt on their wounds.
Compared to that, the 11th floor was on the better side.
Except for the central city, it is an area where few people live, and it is a place that is used only for graduation exams in the first place.
Even if it hit a large-scale bombing, there was no one who would die.
Of course, in any case, it is natural that the damage received is different depending on the position you are in, and the feeling is also different.
Just like the angels.
Currently, the tower is largely divided.
The forces of God (angels) occupying the 100th floor to the 28th and 29th floors,
It is the continental power that occupies the lowest floor, from the 1st floor to the 27th and 28th floors.
Even if the continental power has risen a lot, the reality is that the complete possession is still limited to the 27th floor.
This also has been raised over a period of nearly 1,000 years, so it is a slow pace that rises about one level every 40 years.
Among the seven gods who invaded the tower, ‘Scrome Nost’, called ‘the one with humility’, has 5 archangels under his command.
‘Pierby Nost’
‘Staroy Nost’
‘Stretch Nost’
‘Cheat Beer Nost’
‘Piate Nost’
Among them, the youngest, ‘Piate Nost’, was given a mission to keep the continental powers in check.
It is to wipe out the academy, which can be said to be the future of the continental power.
As part of that, she worked on the 11th floor.
After infiltrating the camouflage angels and creating a force, they built an advance base on the 11th floor.
About 300 disguised angels gathered on the 11th floor.
From the point of view of gods and archangels, this was not a large number, but from the point of view of the continental powers they had to deal with, it was a huge number.
At that level, a unit made up of elves or dwarves would melt in an instant, and it would be barely manageable only when a large-scale unit made up of demons arrived, and that was only a story under the assumption that those 300 people were ordinary angels.
In reality, they are a well-chosen elite, and the Noblesse, who are not demons, are terrible enough to have a battle going on.
“How have you been?”
“… As expected, they are all dead and missing.”
“Grunt….”
However, due to a recent incident, the foundation was completely blown away.
An unprecedented event in which one floor was burned.
It wasn’t just burned, but the ground turned upside down like a water change, turning everything on the ground into ashes.
“I didn’t know they had that much firepower. If I had known it would be like this, I would have done it more thoroughly.”
Fiate blamed himself.
Since he is a member of the family of ‘those with humility’, he has no choice but to be influenced by him, but he is currently undergoing the ‘penalty of arrogance’.
Not only that, but all the gods who invaded the tower were in the same state.
Each of them is endowed with a quality that is opposite to their own, and they are in pain.
“Even if I increased the number, I think it would not have meant much. Because the whole floor is burned.”
“Ah. Is it?”
Tapping on her desk, she stood up with her distraught heart.
A ‘drapery’ gently enveloping a pinkish body with white skin.
Actually, it was just a piece of white cloth wrapped around her waist rather than clothes, and tied around her waist with a string, but rather, her charm shined through her.
Somewhere between elegance and sexiness.
His anguished expression and tightly pursed lips of her were enough to make him feel that way.
Swoop.
Long white hair that fell over her shoulders.
She picked it up and touched it.
It’s a habit that often comes out when you’re in deep trouble.
“I think the problem is that they infiltrated the 11th floor. There’s nothing there Even from their point of view, if they make a mistake, they can blow up the entire floor.”
“Then shall we select candidates again?”
“Look at it for now. You have to be quiet for a while. They also worked hard.”
She walked to her window.
A wide view through the large windows.
Countless angels were flying in the gloomy sky where it was raining.
“You said you were human?”
“Yes. Not only the 11th floor, but also the 9th floor, where the home of the Song family is located, was blown up.”
“Is it a civil war?”
“They are also the group that usurped the committee a while ago.”
He snorted her pathetically.
“It’s not enough even if they come together as one and bump into each other, so they discriminate against each other and fight. It’s not that stupid because they’re bloody lumps. How pitiful.”
With a cold expression on her face, she looked out the window and returned to her desk.
“Investigate that person. And the humans outside.”
“If outside, do you mean the continent?”
“Yes.”
“All right.”
“Ah. Wait a minute.”
She calls the angel who was just about to leave and stops her and ponders again for a few minutes.
The angel waited patiently.
“Try to contact me at all.”
“That… Is Ryu Si-hwan a human?”
“Okay. You blew up the 9th floor and usurped the committee without hesitation. It’s as ferocious as it is powerful and full of desire. And human… The dissatisfaction with the continental powers is not the only one.”
“I will appease you.”
Fiate nodded her head.
“And on the way out, ask him to bring you some sandwiches. I’m hungry.”
“Yes. Piate.”
“Vanilla shake too.”
+++
“Well.”
A low groan echoed in the great battle.
A woman sitting arrogantly in a spacious chair.
The one with the name of Lucifer, the ‘demon of arrogance’. She is Liquid Velvet.
She was listening to Carlett’s mantra that she ‘should join’ after receiving a report on the recent incidents on the 9th and 11th floors.
“Indeed, what I have seen with my own two eyes is completely true! Now is… We must bow now, Your Majesty!”
Carlet risking her life to speak out.
She’s really acting like she’s on her deathbed for this country.
“Don’t underestimate human beings… Please consider that he has risen to the ‘Supreme Commissioner’ on his own….”
Liquid still sat arrogantly, looking down at her.
In her honest words of her, she too was greatly surprised to hear the news.
Because this mere human possesses a weapon capable of burning a floor.
In addition, the 9th floor is where the ‘Song Family’, a member of the Five Greats, a powerful force among Noblesse, is the base.
Naturally, it had a level of difficulty that was incomparable to burning the 11th floor.
It would be impossible even if Liquid Velvet and the Demon Kingdom of Lucifer put all their efforts into it, but only humans could do this.
Yes, it is natural that the entire continent is excited, and it is also natural that Carlet, who witnessed the scene, is making this uproar.
However….
If you lower your head that you have grasped the situation, you will not be called the ‘demon of arrogance’.
Demon kings who inherit the name of ‘Lucifer’ from generation to generation have become unbreakable beings with a high nose instead of possessing great power.
She is the same as she is
Even if she knew it in her head, she could not help it.
“Get dressed… Do you know what it means to join him?”
“That….”
“The guy who raped my daughter in public, and she bowed her head to him. Carlett, the mother of her daughter, has things to say and things not to say.”
“….”
She threw her daughter away without hesitation and said that.
She thought to herself, but Carlett kept her head down.
“Still, that judgment is not bad. It is also very good to risk her life and make a mantra. There must be someone who knows how to say the right things like this.”
“That, that word… !”
“Of course, I don’t sleep.”
“….”
“Know? If you talk like that in front of me, your throat will be cut off. But your judgment and loyalty have moved me, so I’ll give you my life.”
Then, while I am moved, I will also enlist for the sake of the country. Do not speak
With Carlet hardened in front of her, Liquid spoke to Chancellor Tweed.
“How are the other Demon Kingdoms reacting? Are you coming up properly?”
“… I am generally angry, but… It doesn’t seem like it’s going to take action.”
“You must be asking for something else. Guys like hyenas… How long does it take?”
“To convince them… We have to prepare gifts and prepare delegations, so at least two months… No, considering the tribal joint statement, three months is necessary.”
“Did you hear? Go ahead and wait.”
“….”
What the hell are you doing to pass the time?
“Even if you join the army anyway, it will take several months due to various procedures. I’ll take my own motion too.”
“… Egg… I will…”
Nonsense.
A fake motion like that is sure to be discovered sooner or later.
But no matter what anyone says, she is a demon and a servant of the demon king. When she commands, she must listen. No matter how unjust.
