Why I Quit Being the Demon King

Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 324

73. Facing the Lord of Jupiter (3)

“Truth? What is that? Is 20-year-old Lee giving me advice? Even before I was imprisoned, I had already lived hundreds of years. “If you add the time it was sealed, it’s a whopping 70,000 years.”

“All you have learned during that long time is to destroy and dominate others. “They are all things that fulfill your desires.”

“What else is meaningful

? sacrifice? That’s right, you warriors are sacrificial beings. But what is the price of tens of thousands of years of sacrifice? A contractor? “Living in a slum in a half-sized room under the stairs without even a bathroom, worrying about food?”

“You mean my life?”

“Your two younger brothers lived like beggars. I was going to fall further into the abyss because I couldn’t learn. If it weren’t for Deus, who appeared by chance, you would still be crawling on the floor. “Your younger sister and younger brother probably didn’t have any special fates.”

“I agree with that. “He must still have been a contract warrior.”

“It would have rolled around like dust and been trampled like dog shit.”

“So you have to trample on others?”

“It means that sacrifice is worthless. I live for myself. You live for yourself. That mass of selfishness is humans, and that conflict is life. “The moment you deny it, you will fall into the abyss and live a miserable life like you.”

“I never thought of myself as pathetic.”

“I guess it’s because I’ve gained god-like powers now. “That leisure gave birth to generosity.”

“No, not even when living as the heir to the provincial family.”

“Maybe it was because I was young. However, if that life had not changed even after reaching the peak of life at age 20 or 30 and reaching twilight, would you not have been frustrated?”

“I… I’m not sure.”

“It’s the same for everyone. “Your eyes will be distorted with jealousy, and eventually your heart will be distorted with dissatisfaction with the world

.”

“Well, I’m human too, so it might have happened that way.”

Hamiel, who was watching, opened his mouth.

“What if you are persuaded?”

“It’s not wrong. I’m just a weak human being. There is jealousy and hatred. I resent, feel sad, and suffer again. But I know because I am human. “The truth is that true happiness comes only when you let go of all those emotions and have love, joy, and hope.”

Zeke said while looking at Nezar.

“Instead of hating and trampling on others, let’s reach out to them and give them a little help.” “Your distorted mind might be mended a little.”

“The dog is barking.”

“Nezar, kneel down. “I will take you back as my servant.”

“I have only one wish. To kill you and kill your master and skin him. What could be better than hanging it on the wall and spitting every time you look at it? I use it to clean up spilled food on the table and to use it as a saucer for body fluids that will spill during the night of pleasure. “I think it would be perfect to use to remove dirt from

your toes .”

“Poor Nezar. “The true joy in life is out of reach!”

“True pleasure?”

“Happiness.”

“happiness? I know enough. It would be fun to kill you, turn you into minced meat, and devour you. “I think I’d be really happy if I could dig that piece of flesh out of your teeth with my fingernails and pop it away.”

“That’s not happiness.”

“Let me check it out.”

Nezar spread his hands.

The staff he was holding shattered and turned into 108 rings.

Although it was called a ring, it was only by his standards, as he was 10 meters tall, and in human terms, it was closer to a bracelet.

Almighty Bracelet.

A total of 108 bracelets began spinning rapidly behind Nezar’s back. Leaving behind an illusion like a disk.

Zeke pulled out Asmodeus, the sword from his waist.

And then he took out his shield.

The preparations for fighting are over.

How strong has Nezar become?

I calmed my pounding heart and stretched out my body towards him.

Although it was within Jupiter’s gravitational sphere, there was nowhere to step.

There was a problem of having to keep the body in the sky even though it was below.

Fortunately, Zeke had a divine weapon called the Shinigami Beast.

Using some of that power, he was able to float freely in the air as if using magic.

I put my shield in front and narrowed the distance.

The shield was already just a symbol.

The person in charge of Zeke’s defense was a Shinigami beast called Blue Dragon.

A powerful force field reacted to Nezhar’s lightning strike and created a solid protective shield.

The thunderbolt passed by Zeke’s body and returned to Jupiter’s thundercloud.

But it was not without shock.

Zeke blocked the first blow and stuck out his tongue.

I didn’t know if it was a complete change, but

it was a completely different force than when I fought before.

He kicked the air with his stepping foot and instantly narrowed the distance.

Nezar’s large body filled the field of vision.

The thunderbolt hammer he was holding crushed his head.

It felt as if a pillar was falling.

He blocked it with his shield and rolled over.

The way to deal with giants was engraved on his body like a seal. He

turned and swung at Asmodeus

.

The stronger the owner’s blood, the greater power this magic sword exerted.

Zeke’s blood, which reached the level of Demigod, fully revealed Asmodeus’ potential.

Asmodeus pierced the space filled with brain power and created a huge hole.

The lightning caught in the sword wind was sucked into the body of its owner, Nezar.

Nezhar swung his arms and summoned the Almighty Bracelet and

formed a defensive force field with lightning.

Nearly half of the 50 Almighty Bracelet lost all energy and drifted away. Soon, energy was recharged from the cloud system again, but Nezar ended up laughing.

Who could imagine that there would be such a powerful person in the world?

Zeke’s power was infinite.

Asmodeus split the lightning in all directions.

If it weren’t for the servants of the stars spread out along Jupiter’s atmosphere,

Nezhar would have retreated in an instant in frustration.

But on the other hand, this was Nezar’s land.

Even if the servant of the star falls, he still has Babel.

What Zeke doesn’t really know is the true power of the barbell.

Nezar hid his hidden weapon in his arms like a dagger and operated the cloud system to pressure Zeke.

The battle continued for a while, and almost all of the strength shown to each other was used up.

Victory and defeat were not easily determined.

Zeke’s attack was a bit flawed. It was also the limit of the warrior who always fought to protect it.

On the other hand, even Nezar’s power could not pierce Zeke’s shield.

The tempo of attack and defense slowed down. In proportion to that, each blow became heavier.

Both sides began to focus on power.

Zeke’s lightning strike created a huge hole in Jupiter’s clouds. The sea of ammonia stirred loudly, creating a cloud-like gas layer.

Zeke took advantage of that opportunity and approached Nezar. Asmodeus was stabbed through his thunderbolt.

Nezar’s body dispersed like an illusion. The phase was changed by immersing oneself in lightning.

It was closer to magic.

He interpreted the numerous advanced techniques obtained from the demon world and incorporated them into his own power.

Today’s Nezar has become incomparably stronger than 70,000 years ago.

But Nezar was not the only one who could use magic.

Zeke’s magic teacher is Sadimus. He was a great mage 1,000 years ago.

A phase-changing reversal magic was created to return Nezar to his original position.

The two magical forces collided and Nezar blinked again and returned to Zeke.

The moment he frowned, Zeke’s appearance actually disappeared from sight.

Anyone who sees Rondo Vivacissimo in front of their eyes cannot chase after Zeke. This was because

it was not only fast, but also

contained the principles of sword fighting.

It spins around the enemy’s blind spot, dazzles them, and delivers a sword strike that is difficult to defend against.

This simple yet clear combination of swordsmanship and extreme speed was the ultimate dance.

Nezar was embarrassed.

But he was also a warrior of comebacks.

A huge amount of lightning was formed around his own body.

As if they had become the core of a lightning bolt, dozens of lightning bolts drew their own paths toward the surroundings.

They gave up trying to block one direction and poured all their energy into their surroundings.

His choice worked for a short while.

Zeke’s speed was at a loss as he could not decide on a direction to proceed.

But there was something Nezar overlooked.

Zeke looked foolish. However, he was never foolish in battle.

The lightning struck everything, but it was not complete.

There was a path for the sword to pass along

that small gap that connected one moment to another .

It was a passage that only Zeke, a swordsman in the extreme speed, could pass through, which ordinary beings could never pass through.

Nezar’s ribs were pierced by a single blow. The shock was indescribable as the broken bones protruded from my back.

His body cut off the pain on its own. Otherwise, I might have lost my life in excruciating pain.

“this guy! “What an insignificant human!”

“Wouldn’t it be right to call you master?”

Zeke taunted and took steps again.

What was clear was that his sword strikes were faster than lightning.

Once again, Nezar’s body was wounded.

The pendulum tilted sharply.

Nezzar’s defeat now seemed a foregone conclusion.

Hamiel, who remained a spectator, was thrilled as he watched Zeke’s battle.

Zeke’s power was more than just a rumor.

“whistle? “I don’t know if there’s a hidden

side to that guy’s power… but if not, I guess we should consider him to be on the same level, right?”

What Hamiel said to himself was none other than an evaluation of the power of Deus and Zeke.

Deus’s DS was the ultimate version of what could be called combat intelligence.

On the other hand, Zeke’s power is a fighter’s ability,

purely cutting, stabbing, and blocking combat power raised to the limit.

It was an interesting fight.

Nezar

was already struggling not to die.

The reason he’s still alive is because Zeke is generous.

Cloud System Even Jupiter’s thunderstorm, which he boasted of, was of no power.

Lightning was still powerful.

Plasma-shaped spherical lightning flashed randomly, causing a huge explosion.

Ordinary beings, even dragons, would lose their lives in an instant if they were caught in that storm.

His thunderstorm, called Enlil’s Storm,

was powerful enough to be named after the Thunder God, but it was useless against Zeke.

When will he surrender?

Hamiel calculated the moment.

At that moment, I frowned due to an ominous feeling.

And the moment I realized what that unpleasant feeling was, I cried out.

“Zeke! Take cover! Yes, you have to use that power to escape!”

Her advice was sound. But it was already too late.

Zeke’s body suddenly stretched.

It was immediately after a rainbow-like shimmering light penetrated his body.

Hamiel spread his wings of light and embraced Zeke’s body.

My breath has already stopped.

A blow so powerful that my heart stopped.

It was different from death.

Because he was already incapable of death. However, the biological clock stopped for an instant due to the energy exceeding the limit.

Hamiel frowned as he looked at Zeke in suspended animation.

How could we have such foolish results when we were together?

Hamiel broke one of his wing feathers.

The feather was placed on Zeke’s heart.

And Zeke’s body, which was in a state of death, was sent to a distant place.

A rift opened and Zeke’s body disappeared.
