Chapter 208 – The Last Farewell ( 9 )
Is the devil arrogant?
Or are you cautious?
If someone asked this question, Cheols would definitely answer that the Demon King is arrogant.
To be precise, the demon king in the original poem ‘So Yeong-doe’ was so arrogant.
– You lowly insignificant creatures… Obediently hand over this fertile land to our Demon World and accept the fate of the inferior race!
The Demon King, who led the Demon King’s army and devastated all the cities, always ridiculed those with abilities against him as inferior races, and when he was in battle, he was never serious except for the decisive battle with Blood Sahyeok.
It was all pride stemming from his position as the absolute ruler of the demon realm and the certainty of victory over the world he once invaded.
– Are you the one who killed the Four Heavenly Kings of our world?
However, the demon king of the current world was different.
He did not send the Four Heavenly Kings one after another, nor did he lead the demon king’s army down.
He just came alone and took care of everything.
– As a guest, it would be appropriate to return the favor.
The 10 girls joined forces to raid the conference hall before the operation was even started and subdued all the 10 girls.
At first glance, it seemed that the ruler of a world was acting too recklessly, but the surprise attack was so effective that it circumvented the opponent’s numbers.
‘The Demon King is cautious.’
That’s why Cheols thought the current demon king was not arrogant.
‘Maybe he’s a possessor like me.’
He even foretold the possibility of being possessed.
Otherwise, it is inexplicable that the demon king reached the state of transcendence, which did not even appear in the original poem, and that he acted out of the story and was full of variables, such as seeing the future.
A demon king who has the strongest world view, is prudent, and may be a possessor.
‘To catch the Demon King…’
Cheols had to catch this Demon Lord.
“Do you know about Miyeonsi?”
That’s why he uses even the strongest weapon he has as a means to deal with the demon king.
“No smoke? What is that?”
The Demon King, who has no modern knowledge, of course did not know about Miyeonsi.
“It’s a game. As something like a creation for amusement…”
Cheols explained the game to the Demon King.
“This world is the world of an unplayed game called ‘Boys, Become Heroes’.”
The purpose of the story, the great demon king, you, too, spit out the fact that you are also a character in an unplayed game.
“Ha ha-!”
Wow-..!
The demon lord bursts into laughter and emits black mist behind his back.
“You want me to believe that now?”
Huge wings made of black smoke spread out from the back of the demon king who asked Cheols with a straight face.
“Yes. Maou-nim and I are just characters in a romance experience game simulation.”
Despite the tremendous pressure from the demons that filled the surroundings, he did not twitch an eyebrow and repeatedly mentioned the information that the world was unrealized to the demon king.
Shush shush shush..–!!
From the appearance of the trembling black smoke, it seemed that the Demon King was enraged at the absurdity.
‘The Demon King believes.’
Chulse believed so.
Shuuuuu-…!
The huge amount of black fog that is now rising is proof of that.
Squeak–!
In the original story, Baek Sang-hyeok, the main character, once cut the demon king’s skull in half.
– Haha! My body is this black smoke! It’s just a shell like armor.
At that time, the demon king mentioned that his body was black smoke.
‘From the mansion to the 10 girls meeting… The Demon King exposed only minimal smoke.’
In the mansion, he fought only with minimal smoke billets, and according to Nero, he only fired ‘pieces’ of black smoke at the 10 Girl meeting, but he never emitted a large amount of smoke.
‘Even if I imprison the shell in the dimension of void and emptiness, the demon king will come out.’
Right before being trapped in the dimension, there was a high possibility that it would come out of the body in a state of black smoke and create a new body, just like a cascade.
‘In order to catch the demon king, I have to pull out the main body.’
And in that way, he brought up a story that would shake the demon king.
That is what informed the demon king of the reality that you are just a mere character, the last villainous boss in a creation.
In fact, it was an unavoidable choice.
I couldn’t come up with a way to agitate the current strongest, the Demon King, other than mentioning Miyeon.
Of course, in this process, the precondition that the demon king had to believe this story was followed.
– Master! Master! A doppelganger is a species that imitates the other person, right? Of course, from birth, there is an instinct to observe the other person’s eyes, gestures, facial expressions, and voice in detail, and tolerable doppelgangers can distinguish whether the other person’s intention is true or false.
– Especially… A top-notch doppelganger like the Demon King can read the soul and tell the truth just by listening to it!
The demon king, who was revealed to be a doppelganger by Nero’s compositional analysis, was able to distinguish between lies and truth.
“I’ll say it again. The Demon King and I are just characters in a game created by humans!”
Cheols decided to use it.
Continuing to mention the shocking content of the demon king and confirm that it is ‘truth’.
Wow-..!
Then even the demon lord would feel a sense of ‘distance’.
He knows about unknown territories.
Whoa–…
A large amount of black smoke, which was unconsciously discharged outside, continued to withdraw toward the back of the demon king.
It was a phenomenon that came from the will to feel a crisis and not want to be close to the other person.
“If everything you say is true… How do you know that?”
‘It took.’
Cheols shouted inwardly at the question.
“Because I am a person from the world where the unreleased game existed.”
“What else do you mean by that?”
“I was a resident of that world and a player of this world and creation, ‘Soyoungdoe’. Then, by an unknown being, I was possessed by a tentacle demon in this world.”
Cheols slowly retraced the past moments and explained to the Demon King how he had come to this world.
“In other words, you mean you know everything about how this world will flow…?”
“Yes. It is. So…”
Swoop-
Cheols slowly raised his hand.
“What would happen if I, who knows the ending of this world, and the Demon King, who has the strongest power, join hands?”
As if inviting an alliance, he extended his hand gesture toward the demon king.
Of course, Cheols had no intention of cooperating with the Demon King.
How about holding hands instead of a definitive language that says, let’s hold hands? Question called.
It is judged as truth because it is mere opinion.
“…”
To the back of the Demon King, who was silently staring at Cheols-
Wow…-
The black smoke gathers into a lump and takes a posture to return to the body.
It was proof that the demon king was positively viewing this proposal, not this proposal, and it was an action to recover the body as a body as the image changed from crisis to relief.
‘Now..!’
Shuuk-!
As it is, Cheols uses the teleportation stored in his metal arm.
Shuuk-!
I moved to the middle of the smoke behind the demon king.
—Chijijijik–!!
In the handshake motion, all the stored ‘teleportation’ abilities are released from the outstretched hand and arm…!
‘Goal designation’
Target the demon lord’s fog.
‘Set Coordinates’
The road leading to the dimension of emptiness and emptiness.
‘Move–!!’
–Pachachachang–!!
…Opened
“You guys…!?!”
The demon king looked back and opened his eyes wide and shouted.
-Pachachachang–!!!
Behind it, the void breaks like a glass window-
—Swoohwook–!!!
The demon lord’s black smoke, the body begins to be sucked into the broken range!
“…!!”
Cheols, who doesn’t even look at the demon king, concentrates his whole mind on the black smoke, grabs it with the power of coordinate designation, and teleports him beyond the dimension in front of his eyes.
‘White. It’s too white.’
In the space of pure white ‘white night’ where even the light seen through the cracks is caught and stopped, the fear of the unknown chills the spine.
Woowook–!!!
Right now, the body of the demon king is holding up with power and is slowly being sucked in, but as soon as the holding power disappears, Cheols himself will fall into the world that is stopped in white.
‘A new house would be better than a dark one.’
However, Cheols had no intention of stopping.
Whiik–!!
“Dare!!”
At that moment, right in front of Cheols, Baek Shin-hyeok’s face of the Demon King appears as if teleporting.
‘Since the main body was captured, did you move the body?’
If you apply physical force to the parasitic insect or burn it with fire, the parasitic insect will come out.
As a parasite, it is an extremely natural reaction to abandon the host, which is the shell, to survive.
However, the current situation is the same as holding on to Yeongasi and not letting go.
“Did you think you could end me with a strategy like that?!”
Yeongasi has no choice but to struggle to get back into the shell.
The Demon King also had a similar thought.
Since the main body looks like it can be sucked in, I was thinking of moving the shell to return to the body and using that power to destroy Cheols, who was using teleportation.
“Of course! It’s about the level of the boss mobs that have not been revealed. Wouldn’t this be enough to catch them?!”
“..!?”
Thump-! Toduduk-!!
The shirt and leather gloves on the arm side of Cheols, who held the demon king’s shoulder with both arms, burst.
Geeing–..!!
Numerous magic circles engraved on the silver metal arms.
“Start!!”
It is activated by the voice of a purple-haired girl who appeared from afar.
– Master might die… How about cutting my life span to draw a magic circle?
An infinite overlapping magic circle carved by Grand Alchemist Nero Meister while vomiting blood.
[ Absolute Restriction { Absolut Restriction } ]
Cheolreuk–!!
Chains made of light crystals emanate from Cheols’ arms.
Drooling-!
Click–!!
“Kuh!?”
It wraps around the neck, arms, and legs of the demon king and binds them.
Shaking-..!!
The demon king tried to unleash the chain of light by exerting the power of transcendence.
Woowook—!!
The enormous power consumed while sucking the body’s smoke from the back.
–Kwaaaaak-..!!
“Haa–!!!”
In addition to the infinitely overlapping magic circles, Nero’s help to maintain the magic circles by squeezing the power to the point where the veins in both eyes burst.
“Get out of here! You bastard without morals!!”
Cheols’ cry full of unreasonable ill feelings and the strong pressure of teleportation.
“Ha..Haha..!! Haha!!”
The demon king suddenly started laughing.
‘Smile? In this situation?’
That moment when the thought that the devil might have lost his mind passed through his mind.
“I admit it.. I…! This body was caught off guard. The weak have their own ways… I forgot about that.”
Swoop-..!
Saying that, the Demon King slowly raised his hand and grabbed Cheols’s metal arm.
“It was good to try.. But… A bit lacking in strength?”
Damn-!
“..!?”
An artifact on the side of Iron’s metal arm that began to crack instantly.
“From what I can see, it doesn’t seem like it will last long… Do you have anything else prepared?”
Shit.
Cheols seemed more frightened by the happy-looking laugh now than the screaming out loud just before.
‘Can’t even do this?’
So how are we supposed to catch this monster?
Blah–.. Blah–!
Even at the moment when the shock passed through my head, the cracks in the artifact on the arm gradually spread.
Pakan-!! Bassuk-..!!
One arm explodes into a piece of metal and is separated.
“Oops. Oops. My strength… Has weakened?”
Too deuk–!!
As the output of the teleportation weakened, a part of the demon king’s smoke that passed over the gap began to come out again.
‘If the artifact is broken… I can’t use teleportation against the demon lord…!’
All monsters that are weaker than the Demon Lord cannot use their power in front of the Demon Lord.
Even now, the demon king is teleported by storing power in an artifact and using it, but there was no countermeasure if the other arm was broken.
Damn-..!
That moment when even the last arm was about to break.
Dig-!
The location where Cheols and Nero are standing. At some distance.
“Ah..Dad!?”
“Master…? What?! Master?”
Surprised Hiro and Baekgu appear above the teleport magic circle.
