Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 184

42. Put to the test (3)

“I guess so!”

“Still not able to calculate?”

“It’s possible. “It’s done now.”

“Then what should we do?”

“I will come find you.”

“You two, come visit us. If you can’t find it, ask the kids to collect white cloth. Hang a flag at the entrance to the Demon World and put up a sign saying “surrender” for the time being. We Love Peace!”

Alex pouted his lips and

left Deus’ side.

After he disappeared, Yulgeum spoke from the hammock tied to the tree next to him.

“It looks like you’re not thinking.”

” what?”

“I thought I would be all over it just because I got my hands on a white tiger.”

“Is that possible?”

“Rather than that, are you really just going to lie down like this and kill time?”

Deus glanced at Yulgeum.

“How can you pretend to be a teacher of life and give advice to someone who is wearing a bikini to get a tan?”

Yulgeum nibbled on the coconut fruit next to her and drank it.

“long time no see. “Something like this.”

“I guess it’s really okay to wonder if it’s mugwort’s poison.”

“huh. The radiation concentration in the atmosphere is also below safe levels. The soil is almost purified. “It’s safe here.”

“They say that’s where the crater exploded.”

” that’s right.”

“If it’s okay here… then the place farther away is really okay.”

“huh. “It will happen.”

“This

means, “There is no need for demons to be obsessed with the demon world.”

“Wouldn’t it be better to take over the land of mugwort without having to fight with humans?”

Yulgeum nodded.

“It’s more reasonable that way. Wormwood monsters are powerful, but at the same time, they are just animals. It would be possible to drive them out simply by building a strong wall. Or tame it.”

“Like livestock?”

“huh. “Wouldn’t it be possible to understand it by studying its habits?”

“That’s an interesting idea too.”

Deus looked interested.

“Now that I think about it, the white tiger controlled the meerkat, right?”

Yulgeum lifted his sunglasses and looked at Deus.

“Are you trying to get the white tiger to do it?” “O”

Hmm.

“That power is a kind of brainwashing, so you can improvise but you can’t tame it.”

“is it?”

“Besides…

“Besides what?”

Yulgeum pressed his sunglasses to the bridge of his nose again.

We didn’t speak for a while. I hesitated to speak and eventually closed my mouth again.

“no.”

“Why are you not talking?”

“There’s no need to worry in advance about something that hasn’t happened.”

“But you damn woman…

“Why?”

“Are you going to keep being naked like that?”

“why? “Are you feeling embarrassed and your heart is racing?”

“I don’t think I have the kind of heart that makes other people’s hearts beat.”

“You’re shy again.”

“Ha, you shouldn’t say anything.”

Deus lay down in the hammock.

Alex returned to Eidos, the capital of the Demon World.

It wasn’t far from the sagebrush land where the crater was.

By changing horses at the post station, we were able to pass the walls of Eidos the next morning.

However, the atmosphere in the capital city was somewhat chaotic.

Even the castle gate was being repaired.

He quickly climbed to the castle.

In the seven towers surrounding the Demon King’s Castle, the Tower of the Seven Dukes, three Demon Dukes were currently staying.

“What on earth is going on? “Did an accident happen?”

Shantrina greeted Alex with an awkward expression.

“You said you were going to follow your lord to the human world, but have you already returned?’

“We are now in the land of mugwort.”

“The land of mugwort? Why is there…

“My lord has obtained the power of the White Tiger, one of the Four Divine Beasts.”

“Good!”

The two Demon Dukes who were with Shantrina were Seiton, the Sloth Duke, and Osis, the Greedy Duke.

The Duke of Greed was the king of Sagar and poisonous insects. He was the lord of all kinds of monsters with the appearance of insects.

Osis said.

“Now is not the time to leisurely exchange updates. “Kyo Goku, there is an uninvited guest at the Demon King’s Tower right now.”

“An uninvited guest? Did a hero come in from somewhere? He said he would rescue the princess. “Hehehe.”

“Just do as you say.”

Alex tilted his head as he watched Osis answering a casual joke seriously.

“What do you mean?”

“Ziek van Jade. “He has arrived.”

“Zeek? no! “A hero

came into the Demon King’s Castle… Did you just let that happen?”

“Then you go and try to chase him out.”

“I don’t mean to place blame. However,

Shantrina joined the conversation between the two.

“I don’t know what Zeke was like in your memories, Kyo-Oh, but it would be better to forget. “I and the two dukes, Na Tae-gong and I, were so completely overwhelmed that we couldn’t even touch it.”

Alex didn’t believe her.

The Seven Dukes were people who had common sense in deceiving each other through plots and tricks.

If you exclude fraud and trickery, it could be said that only a dull relationship remains.

Shantrina and Seiton, who were defeated by Zeke, will somehow exaggerate Zeke’s power.

Only then will the flaws of defeat be covered.

With that in mind, Alex walked towards the Devil’s Tower where Zeke and Signy were staying.

“Zeke!”

“Manager, it’s been a while.”

Zeke laughed.

At the mention of store manager, Alex suddenly remembered something from 10 years ago.

When he was running a martial arts store at Zorig Castle, Alex served as the store manager.

And Zeke was a part-time worker at that store.

Because he was sincere in every way, Alex felt a great affection for Zeke beyond the relationship between a warrior and a demon.

“It’s been a really long time. Ah, if I think about it, I should have lured Zeke back then and made him the general of the demon world!”

“I am a warrior.”

“I was thinking about adding a succubus. “I don’t know how effective the color system will be against the warrior.”

Alex, who was talking, looked at Signy and covered his mouth.

“I did something wrong in front of you, Signi. “Zeek, you must have already known the truth about what happened to your body.”

“I heard the story.”

“You may be very surprised, but since it happened while saving Signy, I hope you will think leniently.”

Zeke looked at Alex.

After hearing him talk like this, it became more difficult to get angry.

Zeke was most afraid of getting colored.

Personally, I did not hate Demon King Deus.

However, if he crosses the border of the demon world and invades the human world, he will

stand at the forefront and fight for humans.

However, if you are influenced by them…

if the demons and Eunwon become intertwined and cannot be separated, you will truly become corrupted.

“Where is Deus now?”

“You are in a land polluted by mugwort. “You got your hands on a white tiger.”

Zeke flinched at the word white tiger. Not only that, his sword and armor glowed red and blue, respectively.

Meanwhile, Alex

was startled by Zeke’s reaction.

I already knew that I had obtained the Suzaku.

But what is that powerful being that resides in his armor?

“It looks like Zeke also knows about the Shinigami Beast.”

” yes.”

“It seems like the power in the sword is Suzaku.”

“You already know.”

“Well, when it comes to being a duke in the demon world, there are a lot of things you hear about here and there. And I feel another strength in my heart

.”

“Luckily, I even met a blue dragon.”

“Blue Dragon and Suzaku! Does Zeke know? “The four evil beasts once destroyed the world.”

“I heard it from Suzaku.”

“That means Zeke-kun has now acquired the power to destroy half of the world. Among the countless warriors living on the continent of Jose, who can defeat you?”

“A warrior fights for justice, not with force.”

“If only all the warriors in the world were as good as Zeke. How about this? “Wasn’t Signi accused of being a witch and chased out into the mountains?”

“If you look at the cause, it’s because I did something wrong. “I saved my sister’s life with the help of the devil.”

“That is just normal. How can you treat the hero who defeated the Demon King as a sinner with only that level of flaw? There is a story like this going around in the human world. It is better for the hero who defeated the Demon King to die. “I will leave behind no trouble and only honor.”

Signi sighed.

“It’s so cruel. “About that.”

“Signi, I didn’t make this up.”

“I know. After your brother ascended to the top of all warriors… for only a month until he returned to Acoma, where the Holy Imperial Palace was located, numerous powerful figures came to placate him.”

“Humans cannot endure unless they group together. A group is always stronger than one. “We are used to the weak attacking the strong, so

it is not easy for those with special talents like Zeke to endure jealousy.”

Alex said, looking at Zeke again.

“We demons are not close to each other. They are not used to forming groups like humans. Only the Demon King gives orders, and the seven monarchs are equal to each other. The rest live on their own land according to their habits. The strong give orders and the weak follow.”

“It’s only been four days since I stayed here, but it was just as the manager said.”

“The strong take everything

. That is the law of the Demon World. How are you doing, Zeke? You have acquired the greatest power except the Demon King. No one on this earth will despise you. Even if they are of human origin.”

“This is a very sudden recommendation for naturalization.”

“My lord still often talks about Mr. Zeke.”

“You touch on the emotional part as well.”

“Haha, is that too explicit?”

“yes. “You’re still the same.”

“It’s for the Demon World, but

it also contains a lot of Sagam.”

“I refuse. “I am a warrior.”

“Are humans a species worth protecting?”

“I am also human.”

“no. Zeke is a superhuman. I have lived for 666 centuries and have seen countless human beings. But there wasn’t a single one among them like Zeke.”

“We don’t keep it because it’s worth keeping. You do it because it’s the right thing to do. “I think it would be better to leave this story alone.”

Alex nodded.

“Take a long breath and think.”

“More than that, I would like to meet Deus. “I plan to take SIGNI to the surface.”

“That’s… Right now, Signi is taking office as the next Demon King.”

“I will send the child to the demon world.”

“If possible, I would like you to give birth here.”

“Is that what you mean, Deus?”

“That’s…

Alex hesitated for a moment and then

nodded.

“It would be better to meet and talk in person. “Do you want to go right now?”

Zeke nodded.

“yes. Let’s do that. “Instead, I would like to call Mr. Lake to take care of Signi. Would you allow me to do so?”

“ah! “It seems she served as a guide.”

“Please don’t blame her. “I asked too much.”

“it’s okay. “My lord, you are generous.”

After saying hello to SIGNI, Zeke immediately left the capital of the Demon World with Alex.

He was with nearly 10 horses, and among them was Yeomma, whom Zeke had subdued.
