Chapter 6 – Pandemonium #6
The place we were guided to was a fairly decent room attached to a palace.
It’s bigger than I thought, and it’s a satisfactory room with everything you need. It is bigger and better than the guest room I stayed in before meeting the duchess.
“The room is fucking nice.”
Except for when I was a baby whose memory is a little unclear, compared to the small studio in the Southern Fortress, where I’ve been living almost my entire life, it’s really no different from some kind of top-notch hotel… But it’s not very pleasant.
What good is it to have experienced something like this before being dragged to the slaughterhouse?
Even the demons who had just guided me were unkind. I’m trying to ask the demon for some information, so if it’s a demon, I’ll find it myself. So when I asked for the location of the library, they told me.
You have to go there and find out for yourself.
“Chibalums.”
Anyway.
Being alone, I decided to sort things out. Reviewing the situation slowly. There is nothing better than organization when it comes to planning what needs to be done in the future.
“Okay.”
It is said that I, who was reincarnated as a demon, was actually from a fairly good background. I was born from an egg that the duchess rated as good, but it was a failure again.
So he had very little magic power.
It turned out that I had almost no magic power, so I was naturally sent to the southern fortress. It would not have been possible to grow a failed work in the capital city. It seems that he was spending some time with lower-middle-class demons there. I guess that’s just how it felt.
After living like that for 8 or 9 years, the Duchess suddenly called me and came to this palace… Fuck, I have to participate in the Advent of the Demon King ceremony.
This amazing ritual was just a ritual held on New Year’s Day, and it was a barbaric ritual at the level of offering a grandson as a living sacrifice on the ancestral table. Fuck. But that grandson is me! In hopes of praying for the Great Demon King to descend again, he sends the younger demons straight down to the middle world!
“Great.”
I can roughly understand this. It’s because it’s bad luck and you have to go to invade Middle-earth as the representative of the demons.
But what can a demon lord do?
Conquering Middle Earth, the words are too difficult, comprehensive, and vague. Specifically, what can I do to dominate? I’m not even aware of that.
“You need to know this.”
This is the most important thing.
From what I’ve heard, it seems that several dukes are now ruling the demon realm. It seemed that there was no demon king. Those devil dukes are very evil and strong, but they have a lot of troops. With it, he rules his Nawavari.
Does that mean that the Demon King also uses his power and his subordinates to rule Middle Earth?
“It makes sense.”
I intend to look for information on this in a library or something, but if I’m right, what I need to do is build up my strength and gather my men.
“But… Are there any bastards in the middle world who will bow their heads to demons?”
I don’t know either.
And there is another problem.
Now I’m fucking weak
He knows the strength of the demons. At the level of earthlings, these are just superhumans. He uses strange magic, and his power is very strong. There are even guys who can beat an elephant-sized beast with their bare hands. The ones in the southern fortress I used to live in are about that, but the top-notch blood relatives living in the palace here must be even more.
Compared to those guys, I’m just a child.
“My strength.”
My physical abilities were honestly not much different from when I was a human. Except for the fact that it has a small amount of magical power… No. Is this a real demon? They’re demons only because of their appearance, fuck, they’re no different from humans.
Anyway.
What matters is magic power.
The reason the demons displayed superhuman strength was because they had magical powers. You have to have strong magical power to become a strong demon. So demons work hard to develop their magical powers from a young age.
He seems to know pretty much how to increase magic power.
An important thing is.
“I don’t fucking know.”
Because I learned to speak late, I don’t know how to increase my magic power. Good night. It’s clear. You need to increase your magic power. There must be a way to do that in the library.
Go down to the middle world, survive somehow, and increase your magic power. If you increase your magical power, you will naturally become stronger, and if that happens, you will be able to beat anyone and make them your subordinates. After all, it is power. You must have strength, but you can survive and grow your power.
If you develop your strength in that way and achieve results.
He said that the duchess would save him.
Then just run
“Great!”
Thinking that far, I immediately jumped up from my seat!
Let’s go to the library!
* *
Hallway of the palace.
“…”
Right now I was walking cautiously, shrunken like dog shit… Fuck. After all, isn’t this a top-level dungeon with a final boss? The Capital Palace of the Demon Realm Duchy? Just looking at it, it’s one of the dead people and contents.
All the beings around me right now are fucking strong. They are strong or of good origin. I had no choice but to cringe naturally as I was walking among those demons.
ㅡPay!
This feeling of being overwhelmed with just a glance!
“Save people…!”
After being overwhelmed, I felt like I was going to sit down and cry! It is a library after all. I heard the location, so I can find it. It’s all about living I can’t do anything to live I walked with suppressed fear.
The moment I turned the corner like that.
ㅡTooung!
“100 million.”
It collided with something and was thrown out!
I looked up at that face in terror!
“Ah.”
Blue eyes were staring at me. The owner of the eyes… Has black hair. A tall female demon. It looked very strong and had nice horns.
Is it because it is the palace where the duchess lives? She didn’t come close to being a duchess, but she was so beautiful that it was truly magical. No. All the demons I see coming and going from the palace now are beautiful.
“Oh, is it you?”
“Yes?”
“Participating in the Advent Ritual?”
Uh?
“Looks right.”
“Yes, yes. That’s right. But… Who are you?”
“It’s your sister.”
My sister smiled softly as she said that!
It’s an angle!
“Sister!!!”
ㅡCoooung!
I immediately jumped up and bowed to my sister!
“First of all, please receive a big bow!”
“Uh, huh?”
“And save me, please! If I continue to participate in the Advent ceremony, this little brother will die! Please help me!!!”
I don’t think I’ll see anything after today anyway! No one who knows I’m participating in the ritual will attack me!
It’s what you want to live for!
If you see any possibility, let’s seek help!
Just in case!
I’ll give you something to pity you!
Even if the odds are low, I’ll try!
ㅡSue.
It was when I was bowing like that.
Suddenly, a hand was placed on top of my head.
“Whoa, how cute. To ask for help so boldly. Do you want to live like that?”
“Mu, of course! Sister! Please help me!”
“But I don’t think I can help you.”
“Yes?”
“You’re going to die anyway.”
Oh
“I’ve heard that no demons have had any meaningful results at Advent. Everyone said they died. It’s pitiful, but there’s no point in giving something to a child who’s going to die anyway, right? So give up.”
The sister who stroked my hair like that disappeared after leaving only those words.
“This, this fuck!”
In an instant, memories from Earth came to mind! Stray cats lived in front of the house! They were cute, so I stroked their hair a few times, and I felt sorry for them, but I didn’t give them anything, and I didn’t really care if they suddenly disappeared one day! It’s cute to see, but it’s a relationship that doesn’t really bother me even if it disappears!
Is that a feeling!
“Come on, cruel!”
Please let me go back to earth…!
“Heuk!”
But don’t be buried in despair. Library. Let’s go to the library I didn’t expect much help anyway. Are you okay. No damage received.
But this brutal experience didn’t end there once.
“Kyahahahahahaha! Is it you? Is it you? Going to search this time? Kyahahahahahahaha!”
As soon as a certain girl demon saw me, she burst out laughing and said such things…!
“You look so damn weak! You look so damn weak! Go die! Die! Die!”
“Fuck…!”
What was so damn unfair was that this girl was stronger than me! You can tell just by looking! This kid is so strong that I can’t compare! That makes me even more desperate!
And that’s not all!
“Kkeolkeolkeolkeol!!!”
Grabbing my aching chest and heading to the library, a muscular male demon came to me with a big smile!
“Brother! It’s you! The guy who participates in the advent ceremony!”
“Everyone, who are you?”
“Your brother!”
“Hyungniiim! I want to live! Help me! Please! Is there anything I can do!”
“A heart that humbly accepts death! I’m here to tell you! Chuckkeolkeolkeol!!!”
Hey, these bitter dog devil bastards!!!
“They say they’re family!!! They say they’re brothers!!! They say they’re sisters!!!”
They were born from an egg laid by the same mother!!! Muscle brother didn’t even care about me and left!
Next!
“Is it you? A living sacrifice of the advent ritual.”
“Ah, yes…”
A smart-looking demon in an all-back tuxedo saw me and started talking to me while fixing my glasses.
“Uhaha! Uhaha! Uhahahahahahahahahahaha! Die trash! My mother, the Duchess, doesn’t need a guy like you!”
It’s so damn fucking fucked up!
“Oh, no!”
My body and mind are all wrecked!!!
All these bastards were making fun of me right now! I treat my miserable fate and death as little pleasure in the celebration!
This is the devil!
“Kheuheugh…!”
It felt like my heart was being torn apart.
I almost reached the library, but I met too many crazy demons on the way here.
Could this be the feeling of the little prince, who had been dealing with outrageous monsters while traversing the stars, relying only on a single rapier? I can’t describe the horror of it.
