Chapter 1190 – Adramelech
“Huhu, that sword really doesn’t seem to mesh with divine power.”
“Seriously, what am I gonna do with this bastard.”
What am I gonna do? With this guy? Am I gonna have to fight barehanded from now on?
I like swords. I like Bügal too.
“It must be because you’re a demon by birth that you can’t handle it. For now, just use mana with the sword. It might be good to fight using divine power only when you’re barehanded.”
“I’ll have to try that for now.”
Karin’s right.
“But you said demon? Then what about Hilde? Is Hilde okay?”
The moment Winia said that.
All eyes turned to Hilde.
“Ah…”
Hilde, who was the center of attention, looked embarrassed for a moment and then covered her face.
“I’m embarrassed.”
“No. Hilde. Why are you okay?”
At Karin’s question, Hilde looked at me and said.
“Um… I don’t really know. Khatt-nim. Please make that flame again.”
“Okay. Sure.”
As a result of what we’ve confirmed so far, Hilde was completely immune to my power. I immediately unfolded a flame in my palm, and Hilde took my hand.
“What does it feel like?”
“This is… it doesn’t hurt, and it’s kind of warm. And it feels good. It makes me feel at ease!”
“Isn’t that just what happens when you hold my hand?”
“Huhu, is that so?”
Anyway, Hilde said that she not only wasn’t harmed by my power but also felt at ease. Well, yeah. It was God’s power, but now it’s mine.
There’s no way my power would harm Hilde.
But it seems to oppress all the other demons like crazy.
Anyway, we finished the job.
“With this, we’ve completed one mission.”
Let’s go back soon.
“Haa. I’ll finally go back and get some rest. It was a tiring journey.”
“It’s because accidents keep happening wherever we go.”
“Get plenty of rest when we get back.”
For a while, huh.
I have to train anyway, so I guess I can rest for a bit.
“But nothing came out.”
Ari said, looking around.
“Yeah.”
“The predictions were all wrong.”
Damn it, nothing came out after all. All that was sealed was a fragment in the cube. But this fragment.
It contains incredibly strong power. If this is just a fragment, how strong is the original god… Well, I’ll have to experiment and find out myself.
Then, shall we just put the altar back in place and go back?
“Just clean this up and head home.”
It was at that moment.
ㅡRumble!
The space shakes.
“W-What is it!”
“An earthquake?”
Earthquakes are nothing to us. Even if this entire facility collapses, we can get out of here like we’re going for a morning walk.
But.
“Khatt! Over there!”
It didn’t seem like just a normal earthquake.
The dismantled altar.
From there.
ㅡSwirl, swirl.
Black smoke poured out as if a fire had started.
“T-This! That’s right! There’s no way nothing would come out! Something came out!”
Liztina shouted and took a stance.
Yeah, damn it. There’s no way nothing would come out. Of course, something would be sealed. Wouldn’t it be weirder if nothing came out? Even if you just lift a rock on the street, centipedes and woodlice crawl out, so there’s no need to mention a place like this.
It was a sudden situation, but we are veterans who have crushed these kinds of situations countless times. A battle formation was created quite naturally.
And.
“Hoo.”
ㅡSwoosh.
Smoke that seemed to pour out from the abyss of the underworld.
An absurdly evil power began to be felt from there.
“Khatt-nim! It’s an evil aura! Even darker than that of Pandemonium…!”
“A great demon, huh.”
We’re the ones who slaughtered Andromalius and Belial.
Whatever it is, if it’s a bastard who just woke up from being sealed, it’s no match for us.
At that moment.
ㅡWhoosh!!!!
The swirling smoke soared up like an inverted waterfall. With that, an evil aura bloomed in the space. I focused to the best of my ability and pierced through the core of that thing.
ㅡFlash!
I shot my body out as it was!
“It’s trying to coalesce! Kill it!!!”
That smoke is trying to coalesce…!
ㅡClang!
ㅡThump!
In the first place, we were already prepared warriors, no matter what came out. Attacks of tremendous power immediately poured in to prevent the smoke from coalescing.
“Haaaaaaap!!”
Karin, who created a sword aura, cut off the smoke that was trying to form a sphere, and Liztina fired a punch to scatter the smoke. On top of that, various magics and Cloudi’s slashes. Even my kick was hammered in, so the gathering energy was completely fucked up.
ㅡCrack!
Nevertheless, the smoke pouring out from the hole in the ground didn’t stop. Is that hole the problem? If so!
“Demonic Divine Art.”
I immediately unfolded the Demonic Divine Art and flew my body. I aim at the hole with my raised foot. If smoke is pouring out, I just have to crush it whole.
“Heavenly Demon Advent Step.”
ㅡThud!
ㅡKaga-ga-gang!!!
At the same time, the ground shook, and intangible energy shot out from the soles of my feet. With that, the smoke trying to escape from the hole was compressed and compressed again, sinking down.
“I don’t know what the hell you are, but I’m not going to wait for you to take shape!!!”
Waiting for transformation time and summoning time is just a manga trope! In reality, no one misses such an opportunity! Are you going to leave the enemy who is taking the return alive!
But this seems to be not a Valkyrie or anything but an ancient, damn strong monster caught in an absolute sealing technique using God’s fragments, but whatever, I just have to kill it.
ㅡKugugugung!
The moment I shot out pressure that seemed to crush even the gas.
ㅡ…
The resistance I felt under my feet disappeared.
At the same time.
The evil aura also seemed to have disappeared.
“Did we get rid of it…?”
Liztina asked, taking a stance.
“Let’s stay tense because we don’t know yet.”
A sharply honed sense.
My superhuman power to read everything around me. I concentrate and concentrate again to check if there is anything wrong. Did it die with this? No. Even if the sealed being weakens, it can’t die with just this.
And at that moment.
“…!”
I felt his energy again.
“Licia! Barrier!!!”
ㅡFwoooooooosh!!!
A huge.
A huge explosion occurred.
Fortunately, Licia’s shield was deployed at the moment of the explosion, protecting us. We huddled together, taking a defensive stance and looking at the scenery beyond the shield.
“That was quite… a powerful explosion.”
“Good job, Licia.”
“More than that, it’s completely black. Did it become night?”
“It’s full of evil energy…! This is an energy level stronger than that of the current great demons…!”
Hilde was almost trembling and showing hostility. Specifically, her hair was puffed up, and horns, wings, and a tail had grown.
Her transformation was undone.
“Anyway. It’s better to prepare. We have to kill him.”
Cloudi is right.
Soon the smoke disappeared.
Our vision was secured, and the scenery beyond the shield began to be clearly visible.
“…”
The altar, gone without a trace.
In the place where the altar used to be.
A 3-meter-tall black giant was standing.
“That bastard.”
It was a humanoid demon. A demon with a black body. On its head were maliciously deformed bull-like horns, and there was no face. Only a slit in the shape of a straight line was pierced in the place where the eyes should have been.
It looked like it was wearing a helmet, but that’s not a helmet. It’s just the demon’s unique creepy appearance.
That inhuman thing was its face and head.
The well-trained muscular body, like a pumped-up Vajra, seemed similar to a human, but it had no dick. No. It didn’t have a vagina either. There was no pillar, and there was no crack. This was truly a sexless demon.
ㅡ…
That.
Was emitting an overwhelming aura and staring at us.
“Yeah.”
It’s strong.
“You were the ancient bastard sealed here.”
“…”
“Did you sleep well? Welcome to the 21st century. This is the future world.”
I gripped Bügal’s handle tightly and took a step. As I stepped out of the shield, I opened my mouth.
“The future of humanity is bleak. Therefore, the future world is not a very good place either. So now.”
Karin and Cloudi followed me.
“Let’s go to a better place. Let’s go to a better place than the future.”
Feeling the energy, Liztina was standing still in the back. She must be thinking of protecting the mages. If it’s her, I can rest assured even if a sudden situation occurs.
“Now, let’s go. Let’s leave this mundane world.”
I approached him, spewing out appropriate bullshit.
He was just staring at me through the slit drawn in a straight line. This is a bit like hypnosis. Naturally. Pretending to talk and then suddenly killing him. Like giving a surprise gift. Like throwing an assault present party.
“Leaving and leaving.”
ㅡThud.
When I stood in front of him like that.
“Let’s go to that hellㅡ!!!!!!!!!!”
With a power that would pierce even time, I deployed sword flames with mana and slammed in the fastest slash that exploded with all my power.
ㅡKaga-ga-ga-ga-gang!!!
Exploding noise.
The ultimate strike that was shot.
“This bastard.”
But he.
“I told you to go to a good place.”
Wasn’t there.
“Hey! That bastard’s running away!”
I raised my head at Karin’s shout.
I already knew it.
“Wow.”
But what was surprising was.
He not only avoided my fastest attack.
ㅡKaga-ga-ga-ga-gang!!!
But was soaring into the sky, piercing the ceiling with his head. In an instant, huge holes were continuously created in the ceiling.
ㅡ…
The blue sky began to be seen.
“He’s flying all the way up there?”
What is he, a bunker buster shot upside down?
He’s going all the way up, piercing through everything from the basement with his head.
The admiration was short.
“Start the chase!!!!”
I shouted loudly and jumped over the hole that he had created.
“I’ll go up first!! Everyone, help each other and come up together! Prepare for abnormal situations!”
“O-Okay!”
“I understand!”
I can trust them.
First of all, I have to stop that bastard from escaping! If that kind of thing gets out of here, not only the Dwarf Kingdom but also the nearby human kingdoms might be screwed! Honestly, it’s true that they’re not very good bastards!
But I can’t let innocent people get caught up in this!
Above all!!!
“How dare you!!!!!!!!!”
To run away in front of me!!! I can’t allow it!!!
“You’re running away in front of me!!!!!!!!!”
ㅡFlash!
Like that, I came up to the ground.
There was no sign of anyone around. Empty streets. Empty buildings. And the ancient bastard who was spewing out an overwhelming presence in that empty space.
ㅡ…
It was floating in the sky above the dwarf city, quietly looking down.
“…”
As if thinking. As if accepting the reality of the present. As if the one who was freed from the seal was wondering how to enjoy freedom.
He was just looking down at the world.
ㅡCrackle.
And.
ㅡCrackle!
Black electricity flowed from his body.
At the same time.
ㅡZzzzzzzzzzz!
Red light poured out from the slit in the eye area.
“It has been a long, long time.”
And what was pouring out with that.
Was an even more intense and destructive energy than the guys I had faced so far. Even the Blood Demon Coltarahen, who was shooting Blood Demon Death Beams, wasn’t like this. Is this the power that a bastard who just woke up from being sealed is exuding?
It’s overwhelming.
But it’s pleasant.
“I know that the gods can no longer interfere in this world.”
His voice was extremely cold.
“Is this the influence of that? No. Such things don’t matter.”
The guy floating in the air even crossed his arms and looked down at me, saying as if declaring. How should I shoot that bastard down? First of all, it seems better to drag him down and fight than to let him run away somewhere.
“What the hell, you bastard? Why aren’t you coming down quickly? How dare you not greet me when I took you out? You don’t treat your mom like that, do you? You crazy unfilial bastard!!!”
I immediately provoked him.
“…”
He was silent for a moment.
ㅡCrackle!
“That power you absorbed.”
He said, unfolding even more powerful power.
“Power?”
“It must become mine.”
“Ha!!!”
Bullshit!
“Bullshit! If you want my power, come and take it, nameless great demon!!!”
ㅡTsu-tsu-tsu-tsutsu!
I also deploy protective qi.
You want the power I just absorbed? Yeah! I guess so! Because that was sealing you! It must be like an enemy! Then come at me, great demon! If you want to take my power, the only way is to defeat me!
“I am Adramelech.”
ㅡFlash.
“The great demon of Pandemonium. And the destroyer of this world.”
The guy who revealed his name took a stance in the air.
ㅡTsup.
When I felt like he had disappeared in an instant.
ㅡKaga-ga-ga-ga-ga-gang!!!!
His fist struck the ground like a meteor. ㅡThump! That fierce strike, which crushed the surrounding buildings as it was hammered in, created a huge crater. There was a house. Now there isn’t. Not only that. The thick earth was shaken by that one strike.
ㅡPyasak!
And so, fragments of all sorts of things that bounced off from there brushed past my body. He was striking a pose in the center of that crater like some Terminator who had just come to the past…!
“This bastard!!!!!”
He’s a damn strong bastard!!!
“How dare you destroy the dwarves’ precious homes!!!”
I will never forgive you!!!!!
“Wabarat!!!!!!!!”
Adramelech, was it!
I’ll kill you on the spot and make you Bügal’s meal!!!!
