Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 154

35. Start End (2)

Zeke shook his head with a heavy expression.

“It’s not true, but… there is no doubt that I have betrayed the expectations of the Holy Emperor. Lord Helios, nothing good will come of you staying with me. “Please go back.”

Teriyan got angry.

“Do you intend to trample on a knight’s oath? Don’t tell me to go back anymore. Our unit even

brought their families. “I will protect Lord Sieg here in Neuekan.”

The fact that Helios’ troops were more vulnerable to monster attacks was due to the non-combatants.

Most of the soldiers were exhausted. If you force yourself to descend the mountain like this, the damage will only increase.

“All right. Life here is by no means abundant. “If someone wants to leave, you should never catch them.”

“Only people with that level of determination

climbed the mountain.

Zeke’s shoulders became even heavier as he saw Teriyan’s big smile.

Everyone must be protected. To do that, I had to become stronger.

Deus.

I really want to surpass you.

After repeating these words in his mind, Zeke guided the Helios Legion to Neuekan.

Neuekan was not a land suitable for human habitation.

Various monsters appeared in the surrounding area, and the supply of food and water was not smooth.

But there was a warrior there.

Zeke and the people around him were not discouraged by difficulties. Rather, I felt joy in overcoming it.

The families brought by the Helios Legion fully adapted to Neuekan after a long time.

Lakhe had great power in helping people settle down.

She completely encroached on the surrounding land and filled it with her flowers and trees.

The grass that grew from Lakhe’s roots was the first to warn of the approach of external monsters.

Zeke was enough to kill the monster.

Even though the mugwort monster was strong, there was no enemy that could defeat Zeke and Nezar Sadimus.

After settling down to a certain extent, all of Sadimus’ spirits were sent back to the ground, but his black magic was enough to deal with the monster.

Under their protection, people repaired broken houses and

restored broken wells.

Food was obtained by hunting mugwort monsters. The fruits of the flowers bloomed by Lakhe also played a role.

A month passed and Terrian made a suggestion to Zeke.

“How about forming a group with members who aren’t famous and going to the outside world on a regular basis?”

“They probably need rest too.”

“You guessed wrong. “It’s not rest, it’s intelligence.”

“You mean intelligence?”

“Have you forgotten why you are here

? “I need to cure Lady Signy’s illness.”

“ah!”

“Moreover, we must not be isolated. Even after all this, I am a man with great ambitions.”

Teriyan laughed.

He was not a warrior. However, he gained considerable fame in the Heroes’ Management Office.

The Helios Legion, organized by Teriyan, was one of the greatest groups of warriors on the continent. Even though D-class requests were resolved , there was not a single

D-class warrior in the corps .

Teriyan’s specialty was military operations by taking control of an organization and using the majority.

Although his evaluation as a warrior was only G-level, his abilities as a commander were world-class.

“First of all, we have to rent. Those who are dissatisfied with the Qing system. “As a warrior, I will find and bring in warriors who are quite capable, but are at a lower level because they have been pushed aside by politics.”

“I’m not particularly dissatisfied with Seonghwangcheong.”

“Me too. Still,

we can’t be together with Seonghwangcheong, can we?”

“That’s

not ignoring the authority given by God. I am just dissatisfied with the way I am treated as a human being. Although Seonghwangcheong is a sacred institution, it also has worldly power. “Only by thoroughly separating and understanding the two can we have a justification.”

The biggest problem was giving the impression that Zeke was rebelling against God’s will.

That’s exactly what Terrian pointed out.

“Lord Zeke is a hero. Walk the right path. But being right does not necessarily mean being supported. “Can’t we at least not be villains?”

“Is that politics?”

“yes.”

“I will leave this entirely to Mr. Therian.”

“Please leave it to me.”

Although Teriyan’s work did not take effect in a short period of time, it showed clear results.

At some point, rumors began to circulate that Zeke

might not simply be a corrupt warrior but a victim of Seonghwangcheong politics.

No one said it out loud.

However, the atmosphere of people driven to extremes turning to Noecan as their final refuge has become widespread on the Joseon continent.

The number of exiles increased. Among them, there were warriors who were truly pushed out.

His skills are A-level, but his grade is C-level. The fact that such cases were more frequent than expected surprised Zeke and his colleagues once again.

“The world is twisted.”

Zeke lamented at the tower of the south gate.

It seemed like Deus’ speaking habits had caught on.

Deus sat with his chin resting and looked at the terrace.

“I thought you’d be curious about Zeke’s news.”

A woman sitting on the terrace railing smiles.

“It’s less fun than I thought.”

“What reaction did you expect?”

“oh! Did Zeke do that? With this feeling?”

“This body?”

«Ugh ” o’.

“Aren’t you misunderstanding the character?” “By being endlessly lenient towards Zeke.” “Is that so?”

“Don’t you remember what you wanted to do for me last time?”

“ah! Wok. I tried to get it from the fairies, but in the end they even took the commission fee. “Scatul bastard.”

“Wasn’t it part of the request to defeat the Demon King?”

“So you defeated him.”

“Yes, but. Hot hot.”

Yulgeum burst into laughter. Deus tilted his head.

“It’s strange. Why didn’t they hate me so recklessly? Isn’t that kind of idiot called God controlling the world? “It would have been more convenient if we had manipulated it in advance so that the hero would hate the devil and the devil would hate the hero.”

“I didn’t hate Zeke. “I think that guy was like that too.”

“Is this a love confession?”

“You damn loud woman. So what do you think? “What if I fight Zeke 20 years from now

?”

“It’s the devil. You have to fight the hero. “Jik is just a warrior from his squadron.”

“Something like an unborn lump of blood.”

“The heroes of Generation Zero are strong.”

“Is it better?”

“That’s…

“I promised to fight that guy. “I’ll have to fight against Generation Zero or something, but first I have to settle with Zeke.”

“Whether I sleep or wake up, all I can think about is Zeke.”

“Are you jealous?”

“I’m jealous of your girl.”

“Let’s stop talking nonsense here and go somewhere with me.”

“where?”

“where.”

Deus got up from his seat and walked to the terrace.

It looked around and immediately flew out of the magic island. Yulgeum also became a line and followed behind him.

The place where Deus reappeared was a familiar place to Yulgeum’s eyes.

“This is… Karma Vortex?” In front of them is the Devil’s Cauldron. There was a swampy area called the Cauldron

of Evil Spirits .

The karma vortex, which was the cause of the formation of the swamp and was created by the first demon lord Lucifer’s karma 666 centuries ago, was still there, emitting terrifying energy.

“Why here all of a sudden?”

“Even though I don’t have much interest in the devil’s affairs.”

“I don’t have any?”

“If I lose to Zeke, my pride will be very damaged.”

“hmm.”

“It’s not that I don’t like Zeke. No, if I had to classify it as a ho-oh, the favorability side is stronger. “He’s kind, useful, and his cooking skills are the best.”

“That’s right. Anyone can see that he’s a good kid.”

“Still, I don’t want to lose.”

“Is that what you’ve been thinking about these days?”

“It’s a serious problem. It is true that the Demon King lost all 665 games to the Hero, but that is a different story. The guy who was like my subordinate has suddenly reached an equal level and is looking down on me.

“I have pride as a man, but I can’t lose.”

“If it’s a one-on-one fight, you’re still stronger.”

” from now on?”

“In the future too. Humans are not one. “The Demon King has never lost a one-on-one fight with a hero.”

“It’s not something to be so sure about. Because I am the weakest demon king of all time. Because of a certain father, the starting line was pushed back a hundred meters. “It’s about the 100-meter run.”

“You have to run 200 meters alone.”

“So, it’s a bit of an over-exertion.”

“swarm? here? “What are you going to do?”

“Yulgeum.”

“What are you doing to make me skinny? “Why are you calling me that name?”

“I will entrust my life to you. “My subordinates are not very trustworthy.”

“So what are you going to do?”

“I will eat up the memories from 665 centuries ago that remain within me.”

Deus approached Karma Vortex.

“You want to eat that?”

“up. That’s the trace the soul left on the world, right? That means you can organize the other half like an installment plan. “We have to get Mahon back.”

“Wait a minute. Are you saying you’re going to jump in there?”

“ O ” O

“Then you die. No matter how much it is you…

“Then my strength will end there.”

Yulgeum stared blankly into Deus’ eyes.

“You said,

“I’ll come back.”

“If it’s normal, I’ll have to stop you, but I’ll keep my mouth shut.”

“thank you.”

Deus laughed.

I am fooled by that smile again.

Yulgeum just watched Deus being sucked into the karma vortex.

Eventually, he disappeared completely.

Yulgeum pulled out a sword and placed it in front of Karma Vortex.

“No one will be able to overcome this sword.”

He declared and turned around.

The person in front of him is a smiling man, Scottiel.

It was Michael’s angel.

“It seems I was a step late, Yulgeum.”

“I see.”

“I never imagined that you would allow his indulgence.”

“Michael is angry. “No matter how much you are, you cannot go against God’s work.”

“Skatul,

you said your real name was Scatiel, right?”

“Yes, Yulgeum.”

“I am Jin Geum-yong.”

“You were originally…”

“I’m Jin Geum-yong. That is God’s command. “It is our mission to do what the Lord tells us to do.”

“I know that the Lord gave you the role of Jin Geum-yong. However, it is a false position.”

“Shut up.”

” yes?”

“It’s a lie. How dare you call a place created by the word of God a lie

?”

“I didn’t mean it that way.”

“What are you worried about Michael? “Are you sure that you suspect that I am handling things with a bias toward the head of the house?”

“Is that possible?”

“Skatiel, how long have you been born?”

“I was born in the middle of the Age of Chaos.”

“It must be only about 30,000 years old.”

“It’s been 29,000 and 32 years.”

“You’re young.”

“Compared to you, yes.”

“You’re disobeying the saying that you’re young.”

“Yulgeum, you are strange. Is it because you’ve been in Jin Geum-yong’s role for so long?”

“That’s a foolish assumption.”

“You’re avoiding me again. The lotus that sleeps there belongs to the first Demon Lord, but it is also the soul of Lucifer, who was once an archangel. “If the devil swallows something like that, I don’t know what will happen.”

“Uncertainty is increasing. Do you mind if order breaks down?”
