Chapter 212 – 212. Relations of Elves (1)
===================
Yushin awakened as a new demon king by using the demon core of the heat wave stolen from Savnak, but he did not become a demon king in a complete sense.
I got the authority and the personification, but….
He could not obtain the most important immortality.
His teacher, Heinkel, noticed just that. Immortality acquired through the favor of the Demon God. The Demon King, who was not favored by the Demon God, was only a mere half-full, no less half-defective being.
“The Devil’s favorite…. What is a demon in the first place?”
Yushin, who had been silently listening to Heinkel’s explanation, raised his hand and asked a question.
Demon.
It refers to the subject of faith that demons believe in.
Numerous tribes on the continent maintain their religion and faith while serving their own gods. Just as humans followed the creator and elves followed the first priest, demons worshiped demons.
“How could this master know that?”
“But, Master, have you not lived much longer than most people?”
To Yushin’s question, Heinkel replied with a dumbfounded expression.
“Merely living long does not mean reaching the source of knowledge first. Then a sea turtle that lives up to 250 years old should have defeated humans and become a wise man.”
“Your master isn’t a sea turtle, are you?”
“Don’t answer the teacher’s words.”
What is a god in the first place? Heinkel replied that he did not know the identity of the demon, and Yushin suddenly questioned the existence of a god.
What is god
You may need to get in touch with theology to examine it in detail.
After thinking about it for a while, Yushin suddenly looked at the red stigma engraved on his shoulder. Proof that God exists. Because that was the stigma.
“It is not known how the six demon kings obtained the favor of immortality from the demon gods. Because the current demon lords who robbed the demon nucleus from the previous demon lord don’t seem to know.”
While Heinkel and Yushin were talking,
At the same time as a strong wind blew from the forest, an elf beauty with light purple hair appeared.
She was wearing tight leather armor to the extent that her slender body was highlighted. It was like tights. The outline of her breastplate stood out against her bulging breasts.
She was exposed through various media outlets, and she boasted a body that looked more like a model than any other model. Her slender legs caught her eye whenever she walked in front of her.
“Mr. Gilead, do you want to obtain immortality? But the power of immortality is not that attractive. Not being able to die could be a curse rather than a blessing.”
El expressed concern that Yushin was excessively greedy for immortality.
Is he also human?
He was dissatisfied with the set lifespan and longed for immortality.
She was greatly concerned about Yushin’s actions, as she had seen the terrible words of humans countless times who experienced her ruin at the end of her greed beyond her own vessel.
“I don’t know exactly how long I have left, but it’s probably less than 300 years. By completely subjugating the heat wave magic core, the existing lifespan has been greatly increased, but it is still not enough. Even if it’s to spend the same time zone as Ardena… , Needs more life.”
When Yoo-shin revealed her thoughts, El nodded her head while giving her a puzzled expression.
Not to satisfy your greed
For fear that the woman she loved would mourn her own death, she sought to obtain her immortality.
“I see, is it for Ardena…. I have inadvertently become suspicious of Mr. Gilead. Sorry.”
She inadvertently became suspicious of him.
She thought only that she was intoxicated with her own greed and was trying to covet immortality.
Because he is human
Because humans are a species of greed.
So he became suspicious of him.
L immediately apologized to Yushin. Because for no reason she doubted him. That was obviously wrong.
“I’m sorry to disturb the warm atmosphere, but there is something I need to check for a moment.”
Heinkel, who was staring at Yushin with his chin resting on his chin, took a step closer as if he had something to check.
She then stretched out her hand.
Before proceeding with his hand outstretched, he opened his mouth to Yushin.
“It will hurt a little, so bear with it.”
“Yes?”
“Well…. It’s comfortable to think of taking the food out of your stomach for a while.”
“What is that….”
Before Yushin could finish his words, Heinkel reached out his hand in front of him.
And he grabbed something.
Heinkel stretched out his hand to the point where it could barely touch Yushin’s chest, and while holding his hand tightly, he pulled it out as if removing something.
“Aaaaagh!!”
Yushin let out a scream.
At the same time, as the black lightning shuddered, a strangely shaped object was revealed in Heinkel’s grasp.
A magic stone the size of an adult male’s fist. No, it wasn’t magic stone. An inorganic substance in which powerful energies are concentrated. It was the magic core. Heinkel temporarily pulled out the magic core that existed while connected to Yushin.
“As expected.”
Heinkel murmured.
Heinkel, who looked at the magic core that came into his grasp, met one of his questions.
The magic core extracted from Yushin had a very unusual shape.
The magic core of the heatwave that I had before, half of that.
And the other half was composed of blue-colored metal.
The round shape thus created.
The power of the heatwave and the blue lightning were fused together to complete the magic core. That’s Depth Lightning. It was the power of a new demon king created based on heat waves.
“More, it hurts worse!”
“Be patient. Are you going to look unsightly in front of a beautiful woman?”
“Kuk!”
Yushin swallowed his saliva.
If she hadn’t been in front of El’s watch, she would have collapsed on the floor in pain as if her internal organs had been removed.
Pride as a man comes first.
To protect his pride, Yushin clenched his teeth and endured the pain.
“… It’s amazing.”
El, who witnessed the bizarre magic core caught in Heinkel’s grasp, also reacted with surprise.
It was completely different from the existing magic core.
A magic core that was born from the merging of two powers. Based on the heatwave magic core, which was only half, it became a whole by overlaying thunderbolts on top of it.
El, who saw the demon core in full form, learned how Yushin Gilead was able to become the new demon king.
“To put lightning on the power of the heat wave. And the new magic core that was born that way. Did he say his name was Depthroe… ?”
“Yes.”
“Kuhm…. Mmm, that’s a cool name.”
Did you think the name was very childish? El looked at him with a pitiful gaze.
As Yushin, it is a shameful feeling.
Because it was none other than Savnak who named the depth charge.
I was misunderstood for nothing due to the poor naming sense of the demon king, who was suspected of being in the late stage of the second grade.
“Unfortunately, we know very little about the Demon Core and the authority of the Demon King. So it won’t help much.”
Heinkel returned the magic core of the depth charge in his grasp to Yushin.
He placed the magic core on her chest.
Then, as the magic core slowly disappeared, it returned to where it should have been.
“Well. That’s a problem.”
“It would be nice to have an expert who has a clear understanding of the Demon Core and the authority of the Demon King. That would be difficult There is no way to get cooperation.”
As of now, nothing can be found out.
The plan to obtain immortality using the magic core was put on hold.
“Thank you for always thinking of Ardena.”
Said El.
She smiled shyly and expressed goodwill to Yushin.
She wondered if he would abuse her demon lord’s power and authority, she was always wary of that, but she thought him a ‘good guy’ when she saw her behavior of caring for Ardena with all her heart.
“It’s a matter of course.”
Yushin shrugged his shoulders.
Pretending she was a nice person, she responded with a smile.
Of course, I was sweating cold inside.
‘When Alone manifested the power of the heatwave, I somehow got over it…. If I get caught wrong, I won’t even be able to find the bones.’
If Ardena and Allen caught cheating on her, there would be some ‘room’, but if she was caught by El Cid, she would be killed without even leaving any room. That was the worst outcome Yushin was thinking of.
My mother-in-law is too strong.
That was what Yushin was most worried about.
* * *
A great battle broke out in the southern continent.
A fierce battleground that collapsed the mountain and collapsed the ground,
I could dare to guess how fierce the battle was through the wind and waves that completely overturned the surrounding geography.
The winner of the fierce battle has been decided. No, the winner may have already been decided before the fierce battle broke out. This is because there was a gap between the demon king and the oath, who fought a fierce battle, that even a strong will could never fill.
“My lord, why did you not take the girl’s life? I do not question the king’s absolute decision, but….”
The head of the monster tribe asked the beast with its huge head raised while lying down in the valley.
The beast answered him.
-I already took everything from Savnak. Honor, pride, and even the nobility built up over a lifetime…. He’s taken it all away, so it’s just an empty shell.
An empty shell has no value.
I took all of her from her, so the life she had was nothing more than nothing.
“However, doesn’t it have at least half the power of the heat wave….”
It was Grid who defeated Savnak in her fierce battle, but she did not reap as much as the heat wave magic core she possessed.
Her rather had gone so far as to let her go.
After witnessing all his subordinates, whom he valued more than his life, being eaten alive right in front of his eyes, he blew the demon king, who had been spewing out hatred and anger, somewhere on the continent.
She will return as a vengeful demon.
It was quite obvious that the red-haired demon, who had lost all his men and wept in hatred, would plan revenge. That’s why the heads of the monster tribe said they should have saved Savnak’s life.
-The tears and cries of Savnak spewing out as she watched her subordinates who had lived with her in life and death were horribly devoured were truly sweet. Her demon lord of heat, I took away everything she valued more than her life, so she didn’t lose anything.
Grid, like a monster that symbolizes lust, covets all things in the world, but she never tolerated taking or losing the things she owned to others.
Get whatever you want
Whatever you hold in your hand, do not let go no matter what happens.
That’s what lust is
Grid took everything from her, as her own lust dictated.
She didn’t plan to break her pact with the demon king of the heat wave, but she wanted to see her in despair after losing everything, so she unilaterally broke the pact.
-I’m not afraid of anything. I just covet what I want forever.
Grid was convinced.
Savnak, who swore she would become the Vengeful Spirit, would bring what she wants… She hoped that she would lead it to herself, which she had sadly missed.
