Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 241
55. Acquire the key to victory (3)
“Do you remember when you went to the moon not long ago? “What form did the Death God Beast change into?”
“Oh, it was a dark particle rocket or something.”
“The Death God Beast is a weapon. It is also a weapon that can change into any form. But you must know the name. Right now, I only know swords, shields, axes, and spears, so I’m changing them like that,
but…
Zeke was surprised.
I understood immediately what Deus was trying to say.
I had never thought of it that way. All weapons were sharp blades or hard clubs.
Shield armor.
The most I could think of that was slightly different was a bowgun.
Maybe it could be transformed into a siege weapon.
Ballista, catapult, battering ram, whatever.
“Wouldn’t it be possible to have a thunderbolt hammer?” Deus added another word from the rooftop
.
“Maybe it’s possible if I know your real name
!”
“yes? Furthermore, what about mugwort fire?”
“that!”
“Forbidden power. “Even the Adapa clan created by Nezar
was destroyed by that, right?”
“You can’t resurrect it!”
“Who wants to make a mugwort fire? “For example,
yes.” “
We are trying to find out
the name of a powerful ancient weapon … from Lord Yulgeum.”
“that’s right. “If I do it, I will fail 100%.”
“You won’t teach me either.”
“But still give it a try.”
At that moment, a door opened in the air and a person appeared.
“When I asked what he was doing, I realized he was doing something ridiculous!”
“Tch, did you overhear?”
“I didn’t overhear it, I just happened to hear it. “Who wants to fight so loudly?”
It was a rule.
“And I’ll tell you my answer. no way!
“Screw Zeke!”
“Even if you say that…
Yulgeum said sternly, looking at Zeke with a troubled expression.
“If you do that, you’ll be angry. “No matter how much you call me Zeke, I won’t pay attention to you.”
Zeke raised both hands and turned to Deus.
“I failed, Deus.”
“Useless bastard.”
Deus said to Yulgeum.
“Don’t be too tight-lipped. If we defeat Nezar, you too will sleep with your feet up. “I can’t sleep because of the remorse over losing Migo.”
“I feel sorry for the mother and daughter of Migo and Signy, but that doesn’t mean we can go against natural law. “I was wondering what you were thinking. Are you just trying to rely on the power of the Death God Beast?”
“Is it my weapon?”
“You no longer have the confidence to defeat Nezar on your own? “I’m a bit disappointed.”
“Hey, can’t you hear me? “The Four Gods of Death are also my strength.”
“Anyway, Zeke, don’t think about learning ancient powers from me.”
“yes! Do not worry.”
“Tch, that was a good idea.” Deus shook his head gently. Seeing Deus looking disappointed, Yulgeum opened his mouth.
“The Four Gods of Death are the power of the Silver Age. That power and the power of the era of chaos. It’s too much to be greedy for the Golden Age when you can handle both. Find the answer there. “You haven’t fully realized the power of the Silver Age yet, have you?”
Zeke’s expression brightened.
It seemed like something came to mind from Yulgeum’s hint.
But Deus still had a sullen expression on his face. Yulgeum sighed briefly.
A human vessel and a demon vessel.
There seems to be a reason why God favors humans.
that day.
Deus passed by the stall next to the old rock hill with a nonchalant expression on his face.
“Are you going to play again?” I waved off
Zeke, who was swinging a ladle in the wok,
with a wave of my hand, and walked slowly out of the castle.
There, Deus stepped as if he was gently pushing the ground.
My body soared up to the clouds in an instant.
As the sun was about to set, the cumulonimbus clouds were colored red.
Deus’ body leaned forward slightly. He put both fists back and gave a short command.
“Darkmatter Thrust.”
A pair of Shinigami Beasts turned into dozens of giant rings and
lined up behind Deus’ body.
A cluster of lights radiated black energy and his body stretched forward in an instant.
In an instant, the speed exceeded 12 kilometers per second. If you point upward, you will be able to go out of the atmosphere in one go.
However, this speed was meaningless within the Jose Continent.
In a matter of seconds, Deus gathered his energy and landed on the ground.
A huge, destroyed basin was visible. Pit of Fallen Star.
This pit, which received a new name, the Pit of Meteors, was the exact place where 665-year-old Demiurge Ragos lost his life to Zeke.
The name of this huge pit before it was created was Mount Agaiatta.
It is the sacred mountain of the fairies and was also the highest peak of the mountain range located in the center of Jose Tail Woods.
“Scatul!”
From that pit, Deus shouted to the sky.
I couldn’t even figure out where Scatul was in the middle of nowhere.
It was a fairy forest, as the saying goes, and the length was 200 kilometers.
Deus’s own voice did not spread hundreds of kilometers.
Nevertheless, he confidently shouted Scatul’s name.
But it doesn’t seem to be a meaningless act.
It’s been a while since he came out from the primeval forest.
“Are you here?”
“How did you know I was coming?”
“Because I came. “If something so fast that transcends magic
were to fall on Mount Agaiatta, there’s no way you wouldn’t chase after it, right?”
“I see. So what is it again?”
“What else? “Don’t you have to complete the contract you made?”
“What contract do you mean?”
“Look at this mountain.”
“Why is this mountain… Is that really what you mean?”
“Mining rights. “The open pit mine on this mountain is mine.”
“
Wasn’t the mine and everything blown up in the fight between the Demon King and the humans? Even if you told me that…
“Hey, look at this butler. “If the owner signs a contract with the butler and tells him to take over, he should at least make sure he doesn’t suffer any losses.”
“Would you please stop making pointless nitpicks? “After all, I’m tired from doing the pathetic things you asked me to do.”
“Pathetic thing?”
“The job is to take disgruntled fairies to Rosdia.”
“Now that I think about it, that’s a problem too. Even if it’s a dragon, the number of fairies is
too small. What I’m saying is, let’s explode the fairies’ dissatisfaction more actively. If that doesn’t work, you can create something like an illusion of a giant and have it attack the forest. “Then those who are scared might betray the fairies, right?”
“I refuse.”
“why? “Sounds like a good idea.”
Scatul sighed.
“If that’s all I have to do, I’ll go back. We are currently dealing with the Elderum tribe. If we do well, two more people might join Rosdia.”
“Bring not just two people, but two people who know magic well. “Aren’t there some genius wizards out there?”
“doesn’t exist.”
“Why are you being so harsh again?”
“Do not think that my patience will last forever.”
“What patience?”
“I didn’t come here to be your subordinate. Because I asked for help as an angel, I received permission from Michael and took this difficult step.”
“Do you know Michael? “You are here.”
“of course. However, he said that he would not have any involvement in what I do. Even though angels are full-time, they cannot help the devil.”
“Why are you arguing so much? All forces join forces against the giant Nezar! “Isn’t this a setting that God and angels would like?”
“It would have looked a little better without you at the center of it.”
“are you okay. “I just watch from the darkness of the world.” “Anyway
, I’ll leave the trivial talk here .
“I will go back.”
Deus raised his hand.
It was a hand gesture that seemed to say goodbye.
Scatul sighed briefly and turned around.
mine? Reactionaries?
How long do we really have to do this ridiculous nonsense?
Such thoughts filled my head.
At this moment, Scatul had completely forgotten one thing.
That the opponent is a demon and that he once fought as an enemy.
“Gotcha.”
Deus laughed.
Scatul was no longer there.
Deus twirls the black orb in his hand and twitches the corner of his mouth for the first time in a long time.
It swung its wings like a halo of light like a whip.
He didn’t even have a new sword. Like a lion with its teeth and claws removed.
I tried to roar, but
not even a dull echo came back.
“Damn it!”
I was completely caught off guard.
Even the slightest wariness I had toward him was replaced with contempt.
I thought things had changed.
He is no longer the devil.
No matter how fierce a male lion who is kicked out of the herd is, he will grow old alone.
When I heard his plan to arm dragons to deal with giants, I even laughed out loud. Instead of doing anything himself
, he focused on
scolding neighborhood thugs and stealing money from them .
After shouting loudly that I would catch Nezar, all I achieved in the next month or so was an income of about 60 gold.
finished.
When I looked at it funny, his eccentric activities seemed like a foolish act.
When we talked about the mining rights to Mt. Agaiatta, it was almost impossible to deal with him.
So I let my guard down.
“It’s no use. “Because you won’t be able to destroy the enclave with your own strength.”
“You’re talking about a shield that protects the demon world.”
“Well, it’s some kind of barrier. The most important thing is to understand the wavelength of the opponent you are trying to block, and thankfully you are familiar with it. “Because we met several times.”
Scatul, or rather it would be more correct to call him Scatiel since he had the appearance of an angel, turned and looked at Deus.
he is smiling
So refreshing that it’s almost obnoxious.
“You are used to both being a fairy and an angel. It’s the perfect target to trap here. “If it weren’t for you who came to see me, I would have teased you more and
let you learn new things, but thanks to you, I was able to save a few months.”
“Was it a deception that you wanted to form an alliance with the angels?”
“No, we will form an alliance. “We are still in a relationship.”
“I guess confinement is not polite to an ally.”
“An alliance is only valuable if it is formed on the basis of mutual sacrifice.”
“Mutual sacrifice? “Isn’t this a one-sided sacrifice?”
“I sacrificed a lot too.”
“What do you mean?”
“It looked funny to you.”
Scottiel closed his mouth tightly.
“I wasn’t confident that I could completely catch the unwary angel.”
“What are you trying to do?”
“If the devil imprisons an angel, what will he use it for?”
“That sounds scary.”
“What I covet is your body.”
“…That’s even more true.” Deus smiled and took a step closer. Scatiel stepped back. But
what was there was a barrier.
Beyond that solid membrane, it was impossible to retreat even a few millimeters.
Deus came closer to him as he stood against the wall.
It was within reach of my exhaled breath.
Scatiel turned her head to avoid his breath.
The jawline stood out. My heartbeat was trembling due to tension.
“Don’t be so nervous. “Because there is plenty of time.”
“If it turns out I’m missing…
“No, no one will know. Hollis
Findle Castle, Rosdia and here, Hor Setail Woods. “People would think it would be in one of the three places.”
“So you did this on purpose? So that they won’t notice my disappearance?”
Deus whispered in his ear.
“The idea of arming dragons is not just a deception. It’s definitely disadvantageous for me for the giants to dominate. “I plan to have the dwarves make weapons and sell them to the dragons for a high price. It will make a lot of money.”
