Chapter 83
83Fire Demon Grand Duke Rakshar(4)
In the middle of the sea, a pillar of fire rises.
It is a great flame that will surely burn anything.
The energy is absolute, like compressed explosive power of a nuclear weapon. Even the demon archduke would not be able to survive that pillar of fire..
-observation. Logic circuit error. cannot be.
Yapi, who tried to observe again in response to Leon's denial, saw a living creature moving in a pillar of fire that evaporated the pouring sea water in real time and spewed out steam..
Demon Prince Rakshar. The guy was still alive.
can't be.
Is there a being in this universe who can survive even after receiving a direct hit from that amount of energy?.
"Sir Spinner. What is the evacuation status??"
Leon landed on Yappy, who was overseeing the retreat. Leon and Stallion are not saying much, but they clearly look exhausted..
-80% Progress. Key supplies and records secured.
"Is it a little lacking?."
-Not. they will endure.
Yapi's gaze turns to Raksha'ar trapped in the pillar of fire. To be exact, it is the three giant Kikiruk tribes that are standing around with their claws raised, guarding against Rakshahr..
"Have they made up their mind??"
-500Been sleeping for this moment for years. Language system analysis. Prosperity to Krashatriya.
"Is it their name? It's a proud name.."
Leon extended his hand to Yapi, thanking them for their sacrifice..
"Now the gate is slowly closing. don't retreat."
Yappy rides on Leon's forearm and boards the Stallion. Stallion flaps its wings and soars into the sky.
Rakshahr shouted to them as they headed towards the gate..
[Lion Heart… ! Are you running away? Isn’t invincibility a virtue of your knights?!]
While being burned in real time by a pillar of fire and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with three giant Krashatriyas, their gaze is focused on Leon..
Leon chuckled mockingly..
"There's no way I could uphold a knight's duty against lowly people like you. Green beasts and evil species are not worthy of respect."
With those words, Leon ran towards the disappearing gate..
[Lion Heart────!!]
[The gate is closed.]
* * * *
After the East Sea Gate was cleared, the world was in turmoil for a while..
The first is the first great supply demon discovered. It was news that came as a shock to mankind, who had suffered terrible damage even against the Great Evil until now..
Even S-class hunters couldn't fight that mental contamination..
Naturally, mind defense items around the world began to be ordered in large quantities, but it was a meaningless waste of money..
But this news was not all bad news..
There were beings who survived the demon archduke's terrible aura without their minds being polluted..
The first is Han Hari, the goddess of Poma, the god of the sea and waves..
The second is Yacht Spinner, the first Holy Grail Knight of the Pantheon..
Lastly, there is Leon, who not only escaped the divine protection that limited him to 'resisting', but also fought an equal fight against the Demon Archduke..
-Wow, what the fuck is that??
-Did such a big devil exist? You can beat that one?
-Look. Flying around on Pegasus. They fought almost evenly in hand-to-hand combat..
- What is that crazy pillar of fire? It doesn't even make sense that Han Hari started a fire in the waves, but that thing completely pierces the sky..
-They say he is the lion-hearted king of another world. Have you seen the most demon butcher trait? I mean, there's no one who has slain the devil more than that man on every level..
-That's a person?
-They say he's a demigod.
The Battle of Donghae Gate filmed by Yapi was broadcast worldwide through Pantheon YouTube..
People do not despair easily. Because even in despair, we somehow find hope..
Leon was a symbol of that hope, and naturally people began to learn more about the pantheon and join the church..
In addition to Maverick Guild's S-class Hunter Allen and Minuteman, key A-class raid members also came forward to propagate the Pantheon..
and.
"Uh, well, then… As of today, we declare Mokpo Special Autonomous Residential District for the Krashatriya people.."
-Cluck cluck cluck!
President Ahn Dong-gil smiled awkwardly and shook hands rather than shaking hands with the giant clawed Gikkiruk..
The second issue was the large-scale migration of the Kikki Luk people. The world's largest mass migration of 10,000 survivors required an administrative process and political decision so great that the president himself had to take action..
"Thank you, President Ahn."
"ah… , It's no big deal, Your Majesty.."
Andong-gil shook hands with Leon while putting on his best business smile..
In just a few months, Leon grew into a magnate that even the president could not easily ignore, and brought with him an unprecedented number of immigrants: 10,000 survivors..
President Ahn and the political circles could not refuse Leon's request to give him a suitable piece of land to live on..
Although there was some opposition from the citizens of Mokpo, their residential area did not overlap with that of other people, and as the commander-in-chief of the government of the Republic of Korea, he could not ignore the only force that could stand against the devil of large-scale supply..
"My Majesty... What is that??"
President Ahn looked puzzled as he looked at the huge statue of the Kikkiruk people that had begun to be built in the middle of the sea and the turtle statue in the middle..
Is this a sign of territory for different races??
"It is to honor the great hero who sacrificed himself against the Demon Prince. The one in the middle is a statue symbolizing Poma, the god of the sea and waves.."
Ooh, idolatry… No, it can't even be called an idol. Because they were real gods, and they really gave grace and grace..
President Ahn Dong-gil, a Protestant, only made a bitter expression..
"I don't think that's the only statue.."
"Ah, there's Jim's and Sir Spinner's. The actual representative of the Kikiruk people is Sir Spinner.."
Leon is a demigod, so even machines are becoming idols now... President Ahn suddenly realized that there was one more empty spot in the statue..
"Haha, you have nice eyes. That seat is President Ahn’s seat.."
"yes?"
"How could we not be grateful to the benefactor who gave us the land? Although it is not an object of faith, even the Kikkiruk people will come and bow to your statue.."
"Oh, no. Then idolatry… Oh, anyway, there is no statue of me.……."
Leon chuckled, patted President Ahn on the shoulder, and disappeared..
As a Protestant from his birth and an honorary elder at Gangnam XX Church, he is just worried about the keyword ‘idol-worshiping president’ that will be posted this weekend..
"dismissal."
At that time, the Chief of Staff approached President Ahn. He came in person to show the media that he was close to Leon, but a security meeting must have been taking place in Seoul by now..
"what's the matter?"
"It is separate from the security agenda… This is urgent intelligence from the National Intelligence Service. It's related to North Korea."
"North Korea? You’ve been so calm these days, why??"
After the cataclysm, North Korea went from being a nuisance to South Korea to being an annoying neighbor..
They even gave up nuclear weapons to attack their country's gates, and the central government, which lost its authority, was unable to prevent the proliferation of warlords..
North Korea has an amicable relationship with the Pyongyang government, which is the most legitimate, and there has been no news of any problems for quite some time..
"Contact was lost at midnight yesterday.."
If that was all it was, I would have thought it was all shit again. There may have been talk that this was a protest demanding that some rice be sent..
However, the information sent by the Chief Secretary clearly foreshadowed further developments..
"Satellite observation across North Korea has been halted. The reconnaissance satellite is not filming anything in North Korea.."
* * * *
Old Pyongyang, North Korea.
Just as the continent was torn into 50 pieces by the cataclysm, North Korea also could not escape the storm of the cataclysm..
Warlords who secured awakenings to deal with the Gate began to become independent, ignoring Pyongyang's command system, and the North Korean government, which had blown away what conventional forces it had in the early stages of the cataclysm, was powerless to control them..
In the end, until 2030, the only solution is to borrow South Korea's power whenever the Gate appears..
They dreamed of a comeback in this place where they barely maintained power, even giving up nuclear weapons..
Cultists who began to spread after the cataclysm. They are ready to attract devil worshipers and summon a powerful archdemon..
"Hehehe, a strong and prosperous nation will be achieved by working the devil.."
The Pyongyang leaders who ordered all this reviewed the monumental demon summoning circle..
This is a summoning circle that was barely formed by sacrificing 100,000 Pyongyang civilians. A long-cherished wish is about to come true with the help of devil worshipers from all over the world..
[This is Raynald Shellman. The preparations are complete. You can also cast a summoning circle..]
A signal came from the Yankee Wizard. I was told that something needed to be prepared, but after waiting for nearly a week, the signal finally arrived..
"Summon me to fly!"
At that gesture, the summoning circle began to glow. An ominous red and dark energy engulfs the skin and souls of the corpses placed in the summoning circle..
What was summoned like that was a huge monster..
"Ugh, uhm?"
Could it be that they didn't expect such a huge monster to be summoned? Or was he surprised that the behemoth was covered in scars??
The monster was in a miserable state, not only with burns all over its body, but also with its hands and feet torn off..
Looking at the traces of huge claws, one could imagine an enormous battle..
"Why is the Great Devil like that? Is it true that you summoned it straight away?!"
Despite the leader's shouting, the devil worshipers did not seem to understand the situation..
[Hmm~]
Rakshahr looks down on the thousands of soldiers gathered in the summons..
[I'm in trouble. She's too hurt to act right away.]
Rakshahar felt the need to recover first. Anyway, it will take some time for the other ‘big devils’ to gather..
Until then, I will have to recover by feasting on the abundance of food..
[Submit──]
At that moment, 3 million citizens of Pyongyang heard that voice..
* * * *
When the Manshinjeon headquarters building was built, the underground space was not taken into consideration..
This is because the current Manshinjeon headquarters was basically built as a rice warehouse on a rural site and expanded whenever necessary..
However, the Pantheon Temple building was greatly transformed when the magician queen of the other world lived here..
For example, using space expansion magic to expand a space the size of a room to the size of a soccer field,,
By distorting the space, a subspace can be created that no one except those permitted by the magician can enter..
If modern wizards had heard of it, they would have exclaimed that it was nonsense, but it was not that big of a deal to the Queen of Magic, who was at the top of the world. and──
A subspace underground of the Pantheon headquarters. To be exact, a beautiful woman stands with her entire body bound in a subspace designed to resemble an underground space..
No, more accurately, he ‘doesn’t move’ as if he is tied up. Because I heard that ‘order’.
The damp environment that made the prisoners anxious, the direction of the space where even the slightest sound echoed, and the gloomy atmosphere were staged, but the woman was shaking enough..
And in that gloomy space, a new sound is heard..
Again and again... A clear and clear sound was coming towards the prisoner Hildir..
"How have you been today? It's been a bit noisy outside lately. It looks like the number of new neighbors has increased.."
"town… town!"
Hildir is not wearing any restraints. Of course, those lips had no restrictions on their actions either..
But all Hildir can produce is a suffocating voice. There is one reason. It's because her devilish charm completely deceived her..
A demonic being that instantly corrupts even old shamans who worshiped beast gods..
Silver hair like a thread that sparkles even in the dark subspace.
Beatrice, the queen of the ruined kingdom, with only anger and revenge left, smiled a bewitching smile at Hildir..
"hic…!"
Just seeing that smile in his eyes made Hildir feel like he was going crazy..
How can such a deadly energy come out of a person?.
A strong desire to give Him everything just by hearing his voice and seeing his face beneath the veil..
An innate talent that can mesmerize even those of the same gender. The magic queen of Spero used her talents to corrupt the shaman of her beast god..
"I remember fighting demons. Back then, it was pretty simple. There was no specific purpose of interrogation, but it was just a task to make it 'painful'.."
Beatrice smiles. Even though he is smiling, there is not even the slightest freshness in his smile. There is only an eerie dryness, as if it has been dried and twisted..
"But this time, I have a purpose. I want to know many things from you... I'm fascinated and want to know something I haven't told you yet.."
"Ugh, uhuh!"
That's not enough. Hildir knew that death was not the end. I can no longer betray God, even for the thought of my soul being captured by the beast god after death..
This is engraved in her soul and was decided the moment she gave up her soul, carving the imprints of the beast gods on her skin..
"Yes, I thought so.."
Beautiful fingers caressing Hildir's cheek and grazing her arm as if she knew everything. She felt crazy happiness and pleasure just from that, but the dry voice that followed brought Hildir back to reality..
"Even the demons that invaded the kingdom built up their pride like that.."
There was a sound like something breaking..
Beatrice's fingers, which were the softest in the world, accidentally broke Hildir's fingers..
"Shut up?!"
Everyone screams in pain when their fingers are bent in the opposite direction. But Hildir wasn't even allowed to speak out..
Her filled screams only linger in her mouth. Beatrice asked in a kind voice while caressing Hildir's cheek..
"They expected it would take a hundred years to corrupt me. how long will you last?"
Hildir realized something when he saw Beatrice's smile. He knew that he couldn't even save this soul..
She realized too late that the matter had been decided from the moment she sacrificed her soul to the evil spirit..
While we didn't know how long had passed in a space where the sense of space and time seemed to be misaligned, Hildir vomited everything he knew to Beatrice..
And among them──
"……Is that true??"
As Hildir, covered in tears and snot, nodded repeatedly, Beatrice sighed deeply..
"It's fun. The devils say, ‘You can go to any gate you want.’."
Gate is a phenomenon.
Demons can use it to move into any system or historical moment they want..
then.
"On the contrary, it means that we can go to any gate we want.."
Hehehehe….
The magic queen's smile overflowed beautifully..
