Chapter 279 – Chapter 68. Geek.
Even though the modifier of the former generation was added, it did not lighten the weight of the word ‘Great Demon King’. … Could it be that this nihilistic demon in front of me was the senior of the great demon king Carmine?
Jihyeok instinctively judged whether he could fight and win. … However, the results were not very positive. Furthermore, isn’t this a demon realm where demons can use their full power? No matter how much the Great Demon King was alone, there was little chance of winning a fight with only three warriors.
… Of course, there were no regrets. If you make a mistake, you could get on the train that goes directly to the 16th car.
He checked to see if there were any holes to escape. … However, is that really possible?
… Fuck, this is not my taste.
Whether you like it or not, it seems that you have no choice but to bet your fate on the other person. What is hopeful is that it is difficult to find the will to fight in the opponent. … But if I ever really do fight, I’ll have to risk my life and give it my all. Even if I die here, there will be no regrets. And I will never come here again.
As the word death passed before his eyes, the hero thought of his wife, Izel, and son, Siu. It’s not that I’m afraid of death, but I still have regrets. … If this whole relationship goes back to square one, it will be quite painful.
– Are you afraid?
Kukrov asked. Jihyeok didn’t answer, just looked at him directly. Then the guy laughed a little.
– Don’t worry. I’ve already given up on everything.
The devil was as merciful as a far-sighted monk. When Jihyeok thought about that, a big smile came out. It’s like begging the devil for mercy. In the situation where the host and guest seemed to have been overturned, the hero felt a little discouraged.
.
What can I do though? He wasn’t the type of warrior who wanted to catch and kill him with his eyes turned upside down, just because he was a devil. If it’s an opponent you can’t win in a fight, you have the flexibility to choose to run away. … If I can’t escape, I’ll have no choice but to fight.
– Then, are you ready to talk properly now?
“… Okay.”
– That’s good. I don’t like coercion either.
“I don’t like being forced to either.”
Kukrov grinned.
– I made a prophecy.
“… Do you have that ability?”
– If you live a long time, you will have a power similar to foresight. It would be easier to understand if you think of it as wisdom.
The demon lowered his arm from his chin and squeezed his armrest.
– Anyway. The prophecy is the appearance of a character who becomes the focal point of this cycle of emptiness.
Jihyeok felt that the opponent’s energy was stronger than before.
– There is one focal point in this void.
“The focal point?”
– The void is a universe centered on a being.
The warrior’s expression hardened involuntarily. The devil looked straight at Jihyeok with an intense gaze.
– None of the demons ever said they were right about what I was thinking. So I gave up being the devil. Because they don’t have that focal point. So, what do you think?
What should I answer? The hero was careful with his answer. I don’t want to upset his heart and drive the team to ruin.
“… Well. But why are you suddenly saying that to me? … Do you think that’s me?”
– I never said you.
“What if that was me?”
– So that’s it.
I wondered if I would be able to get help from this guy if I let him know that he was the focal point.
“If I’m the focal point, then I’ll be the person of the prophecy you’ve been looking for so long.”
– But in the end, everything is empty. Me too. It doesn’t matter who the focal point is.
“… Then why are you doing this? Until you give up being a demon.”
– Just curious. I’ve already given up on everything. In the void.
His void, his void…
Even geeks didn’t have geeks like this. The opponent was a demon so unusual that his real head was shaking. A devil who has realized the Way. It was really unheard of.
“Then I guess this conversation doesn’t make any sense anymore…”
– Things like that happen, too.
“Then… , We will leave.”
– You are free to leave. … But that won’t be easy.
Jihyeok felt bad.
Could this bastard suddenly change his mind here?
The hero was nervous and slowly gripped the holy sword. I was going to swing the holy sword right away if I felt even the slightest strange feeling, but unexpected words came out of his mouth.
– An uninvited guest has arrived outside. It looks like I’m waiting for you.
“… An uninvited guest?”
– See for yourself.
Kukrov snapped his fingers. Then, Ji-hyeok’s vision went dark for a moment, and then he could see clearly down below, as if he were on the top of the demonic castle.
I didn’t feel it at all when I was inside, but there was an enormous army lined up around the demonic castle.
Just looking at it, I could see what they were like. Exactly, the Demon King. At first, Jihyeok thought that Kukrov had tricked them. But he shook his head, saying he hadn’t done it.
– I think I was waiting for you to come. As soon as you guys came in, it was like that.
This fuck.
Jihyeok finally understood what had happened. He quickly called his teammates. Released from bondage and becoming free, they hurriedly escaped the Great War where the former Great Demon King was.
“What the hell is this? What is that bastard from earlier?”
“… It’s long to explain. Let’s get out of here and talk.”
Jihyeok passed the question of Princess Ganesha. Because that doesn’t matter now. It is urgent to survive here.
The hero went out from the middle floor to a place like a terrace and looked outside again. The Demon King’s army was tightly surrounding the Demon Castle. Seeing that scene, the princess cursed at her.
“What the fuck is this again? Fuck you!”
Jihyeok couldn’t do this or that. The good news is that they don’t come here to the demonic castle. … No matter how much the Demon King’s army is, can’t they recklessly enter the former Great Demon King’s residence?
“… I have to break through this fucking thing, what can I do?”
Princess Ganesha suggested breaking through, befitting her fiery personality. But Jihyeok knew how hard it was. The enemies were already in a state of herpes, and again, this was a demon world where they could use their full power. In addition, the number here is only three warriors. Even if he penetrated, it was clear that most of them would die.
“The chances are slim. Almost all of them will die.”
Then, the anxious Elizabeth Warrior asked.
“So what?”
In fact, Jihyeok was frustrated as well. I really never imagined that the demon king’s army would come all the way here to kill them. Never had anything like this happen before.
It’s a waste. Damn, I never thought things would turn out like this…
Didn’t you meet the former Great Demon King in an empty castle, wouldn’t it be surrounded by the Demon King army this time… Today’s Iljin was really the worst of the worst.
As of now, there was no other way but to break through. … There is no choice but to make sacrifices.
But then suddenly Kukrov appeared. Tall, one head taller than Lizardman Kayak, he nodded his head to Ji-hyuk, who was in trouble, with his hands behind his back, asking him to follow him. He wondered if this nihilistic fiend would be of some help.
The three warrior teams walked to the entrance of the Demon Castle. Until then, the teammates hadn’t said a word. Be prepared to strike back at any time.
Then Princess Ganesha approached Jihyeok and whispered something to her.
“Oh my god? Are you going to just follow along like this? … That bastard is a demon too.”
“… For now, just trust me and follow me. It might open a way for you to live.”
“Sir… , Our lives depend on you. Be mindful.”
Still, Ji-hyeok’s brilliant performances so far have created firm trust from his colleagues. That kind of belief that you can overcome any hardship and adversity if you are with him.
Jihyeok came closer to Kukrov, who was walking in the lead from a distance.
“Do you have any room?”
He just glanced at Jihyeok once more and walked away without saying a word. The frustrated warrior raised his voice and urged him to answer.
“Now we are in a hurry!”
– Don’t worry and follow me.
Jihyeok was quite confused as to whether this was true. … But now he had no choice but to believe. How absurd it must be to believe in the devil, but there was no other way now.
It was a life-and-death gamble.
Kukrov opened the door to the Demon World Castle with one gesture. Under the reddish lighting, I could see demons and beasts swarming like ants. The team members who saw it for the first time after only hearing it were shocked.
“Oh shit… !”
Bald Gide also couldn’t hide his nervous light. It was really the worst.
Among the countless demons and beasts, something approached. It was an ordinary existence that was not easy to see. Jihyeok recognized his opponent’s identity at a glance.
Demon King Paseoks.
The lower body swayed like mud whenever it moved, and the upper body had a bizarre appearance with blisters and ooze running down it. Nom, the demon of ugliness and the demon lord of plague, lowered his head lightly as he looked at the former great demon king, Kukrov.
– Good luck.
– What are you doing here?
– In accordance with Your Majesty’s orders, I have come to deal with the insignificant creature.
This was the meaning of the order of the Great Demon King Carmine.
– Okay?
– I’ll take care of him. Hand it over
– But this is my guest. I can’t do that.
The energy of the Demon King Paseoks was strangely twisted.
– This is His Majesty’s name.
– So?
– Everything in the Demon Realm must obey His Majesty’s orders.
– You mean me too?
Parseoks didn’t answer by asking why he knew it.
Kukrov laughed eerily.
– Carmine gnome. I’m afraid crab. That’s why I sent you, not him.
– It’s embarrassing to hear! Write your name!
– Who? I?
Colossal energy began to emanate from the body of the former Great Demon King. Even Jihyeok, who was standing far behind, could not breathe.
– If it was me in the past, you just died.
ㅡ!
– Even that is meaningless, so I’m just standing still. But don’t test my patience any longer.
Parseoks was scared. Because I know that what he said is not a lie.
Kukrov was a legend among the legends of the underworld. … To be honest, the demon lord Parseoks wasn’t in a class he could do anything about.
– Then, what should I do? Your Majesty’s orders must be carried out. Please consider my situation.
Jihyeok never expected to see a scene where the demon king begged so servilely without any pride.
At that time, Kukrov provided a cool solution.
– Do according to the law of the demon realm.
The devil’s law?
Jihyeok is not a devil, so he didn’t even know there was such a law.
Hearing about the law of the demon realm, Parseux jumped up.
– How can I fight the ancestors?
– It’s not me who’s fighting.
Kukrov pointed his finger at Jihyeok behind him.
– I am the author.
– The law of the demon world is a rule that only works for beings in the demon world. That guy is human. It is not included in the Great Underworld Law.
Ah.
Jihyeok knew Kukrov’s true intentions there.
The former Great Demon King slightly raised the corner of his mouth as if he knew that.
– That guy is the Demon King. Qualifications don’t matter.
ㅡ!
– The two of you fight. The strong one decides.
Kukrov laid the plate.
