Chapter 212 – Invasion of the Demon King of Highgre (4)
—It’s only been two days since the demon king Haigre invaded the earth.
The damage to Earth was devastating.
No epidemic, war, or natural disaster in the past has ever driven the earth to such an extent of destruction.
In just two days, 60% of all humankind came under the control of the Highgre saint.
No one doubted the alien invasion any longer.
Everyone was realizing
This is the greatest crisis in human history.
But the problem was that I couldn’t find any countermeasures.
If you get hit by a ray gun, that’s it.
Fall immediately.
More than anything, the most troublesome thing was the propagation power of a person who had been brainwashed like a zombie holding a ray gun and trying to brainwash people around him like himself.
The reason why more than half of humanity fell into the hands of the enemy in just two days was because of the system in which traitors increased traitors.
Humanity shuddered with fear that the people closest to them might suddenly be brainwashed into Highgre humans and attack me.
Now it has become a situation where no one can be trusted.
It was also a defeat that Joo Eun-bi, the president of the world government, a collective of nations, was brainwashed by Chojang.
For the launch of the world government, the armies of each country were dismantled and integrated into a single army called the “World Army,” But as the command system collapsed, the armies and weapons they possessed became useless.
In the end, countries where all the people were high-legged people began to appear one after another, and only the countdown of the bells of human extinction was left behind.
—The high-leg demon king summoned the pantyhose soldiers to the spaceship.
To check past achievements.
“All 25 pantyhose soldiers returned safely without missing a single one.”
Staff Lily Grimes reported on the situation.
“We brainwashed presidents of 42 countries and prime ministers of 34 countries, including World Government President Joo Eun-bi. More than 70 countries have already officially expressed their willingness to surrender to Lord Haigre. This is an achievement in just two days. In a week, the star called Earth will disappear and it will become “Hygre Colony 12423.”
“Okay… ? Not a single pantyhose soldier died… ? Hmm… “
“Please don’t talk like you’re sorry, Maou-nim. In the first place, there has never been a case of a pantyhose soldier dying in battle in 50,000 years. The last time I went to another world, no one died after all. It was a lot tougher there than on Earth.”
“That’s because I dealt with Ishtar. If only the pantyhose soldiers were sent separately then, uhm~ Ishtar might have annihilated them.”
“It can’t be. Pantyhose soldiers are not easygoing guys. He is a veteran who has conquered over 10,000 stars so far. In the first place, as long as there is no happiness beyond doing hagre in this universe, the pantyhose soldier is invincible.”
“Considering that, the guy named Jay is dead, right? There’s a hole in my forehead.”
“All right… In the end, the demon king wants someone stronger than the pantyhose soldier to appear and please the demon king. If so, let me break the demon king’s meaningless expectations. Killing Jay, killing the woman named Himeko… !!”
“Hoo… Cheer up, strength.”
In the demon king’s voice cheering with his chin resting on his chin, there was anticipation for an interesting development in which even Lily died.
“But Lily. Isn’t the spacecraft running out of fuel? I think I need to fill… ?”
“You’re right. Regarding that, I had something to say to the Demon King.”
Lily flashed the screen on the monitor.
I saw skyscrapers embroidering the wide flat land. The prosperity of mankind itself was New York.
“There are over tens of thousands of cities where humans live together on this earth, but among them, New York is said to be the most prosperous. Considering that it will take about a week to conquer the earth, we decided that it would be difficult to stay in the spaceship, so we would like to set up the devil’s residence in New York. Of course, America has already fallen into the hands of Saint Haigre, so don’t worry… !”
“Not relieved, rather disappointing, Lily… It’s fun when there are guys with spirit.”
The ship disappeared in the sky for a moment, then warped to New York.
The demon king came out of the spaceship with Lily for the first time and breathed in the earth’s air.
“… It’s cloudy. Maybe the air pollution is a bit bad here? Hmm… ? But what is that?”
The Demon King asked, pointing to a unique stone structure that stood out among similar-looking buildings.
“That is the Statue of Liberty. It is almost the most famous landmark on Earth.”
“Statue of Liberty? Is that?”
“Yes. The torch and book the goddess is holding are said to symbolize freedom and reason, respectively.”
“I’m not surprised… That’s not what true freedom looks like. Isn’t that right, Lily?”
“Yes… ? What… ?”
Lily looked at the demon king with a horned face stretching out his palm to the stone statue incredulously.
Stone statues are not living things.
Just a structure.
‘What on earth is the Demon King trying to do?’
“I will give you true freedom.”
A beam of light emanating from the Demon King hit the Statue of Liberty.
The hand of the stone statue holding the torch starts to go down.
And the two bridges that had supported New York City for hundreds of years were widening little by little.
The high-grey pose, familiar to high-grey people, has been completed.
The Roman-style attire worn on the body was changed to a high-leg swimsuit, and the solemn expression was replaced by a disheveled face with an open mouth.
“This is freedom. Isn’t that right, Lily?”
“Haigre brainwashing works even on inanimate objects. After all, the Demon King is on a different level. I was convinced again. There is no one comparable to the Demon King anywhere in this universe. Demon King-sama is an omniscient and omnipotent god… !!”
“Don’t be so uplifting. I just gave freedom to a woman who seemed stuffy. Rather, this city of New York still seems to have a microbrain? The micro brains smelled bad, so they recognized it right away.”
“Because it’s hard for a pantyhose soldier to brainwash those who hide in their houses like rats.”
Lily agreed with her displeased face as she covered her nose.
The stench from the microbrain was painful for Lily as well.
“Well, give me some time and I’ll sort it out right away. Concentrate the pantyhose soldiers on New York.”
“No, it’s where I live, so I’ll organize it myself.”
“Yes?”
As the demon king waved his hand in the air like a conductor, a beam of light with a radius of 5 km hit New York City.
With that single attack, all the citizens who were hiding from the invasion of the aliens instantly became Highgre humans.
“High Gree High Gree! Haigre human brainwashing is complete!”
“Brainwashing complete!”
“I’m sorry for daring to hide, Maou-nim! Haigre!”
“Thank you for letting me escape from being a stupid earthling and live as a beautiful human being, Haigre!”
“High gray high gray!”
“High-gre New York to the Demon Lord!”
“High Gree High Gree!!”
The sound of praising the demon lord and haigra could be heard from everywhere.
In an instant, the streets were overflowing with people wearing high-leg swimsuits and repeating high-leg poses.
The Demon King looked down at the High Leg Humans happily and said.
“It’s cute… “
“Yes? Are you cute, Demon King?”
“Huh. “What is a high leggings?! You don’t know that!” Or “I’d rather die than be brainwashed!” I will dedicate my body and soul to the Demon King!”
“I think rebels are just a danger.”
“That rebellious spirit returns to the satisfaction of brainwashing. Well, it’s okay if you don’t understand. This is because only the “King” Needs to know. More than that, I don’t think it’s bad to stay here for a week or so.”
The demon king climbed the tallest skyscraper and said while appreciating the panoramic view of the city.
“I will wait here. Until a good rival appears who is equal to me.”
“… Is it that small thing again? There’s no way a guy like that could exist. In the end, if nothing happens and a week goes by, the conquest of Earth will be over and we will move to another planet. Here on Earth, food is said to be delicious, so you can have a delicious meal. However, enemies that pose a threat to the Demon King will never appear.”
—At the time when Lily was carelessly predicting an overwhelming victory, a serious discussion was going on across the globe in Russia.
The head of the Russian branch of the world government was hiding in a bunker and holding a clandestine meeting with officers.
“Intelligence has arrived that the enemy’s chief has established himself in New York.”
“New York has already become a city for astronauts.”
“I never thought that the United States would fall so easily… “
“Russia is not in a position to speak to others. The President and his family are all shouting Haigreman, so I won.”
“What the hell is that bastard haigre! My wife looks even better than when she had sex with me, and Haigre Posen is doing something 24/7! Without getting tired! I’ll never forgive you, the astronaut child… !”
“I can’t forgive you… How specifically are you not going to forgive me?”
“That must be the real reason we are here. Let’s not waste any more time. There is only one way.”
“NuclearAre we going to launch… How many people will die if you do that.”
“There are no humans in New York right now anyway. There are only highgre people. If you face them too, the captain will feel sympathy for you. They only intend to brainwash us… Monster. It is a beast.”
“That’s right. Now that we have found out the whereabouts of the demon king, this is our only chance.”
“To save the planet, we give up New York. It can be said that it is a standard strategy to throw away the cow and take the bamboo.”
“Drop a nuclear bomb on New York and annihilate the enemy’s leader. Now there is no other way to save humanity. Captain.”
“… … ”
“Captain! Don’t hesitate! After the US, China and Europe! Our Russia is not far away either. It will be too late when the whole world becomes a den of Haigre people!”
“At least it is Asia that is blocking it. It seems that Japan and Korea are doing well. I don’t know why… “
“Anyway, shouldn’t we entrust the fate of mankind to those two small countries?”
“Great Russia has a chance to become a hero.”
“Captain… Make a decision!!”
“… … “
The commander-in-chief, who took over the leadership of the already brainwashed president, pondered silently for a long time before finally making a decision and speaking in a firm voice.
“We launch nuclear weapons. Together with New York, let’s turn the demon king to dust in this world.”
—On that day, a fighter plane carrying a nuclear bomb that could devastate not only New York but also the United States rose into the sky.
Hours later, it dropped its death bomb on New York.
