Chapter 101: Gap (4)
Marco couldn’t believe the situation before his eyes.
At some point, Frontier froze like a doll. It was similar to when Pantemonium was created.
‘Nonsense… … ! ‘This is acting!’
In fact, Frontier looks a little different now than it did in Pantemonium.
Pantemonium sweeps all around. The proof is that when Frontier defeated Bael, all the demons, including Marco, fainted or died.
But now Frontier just stands alone. The Pantemonium is not visible, and Marco does not feel its aftermath.
However, if this is truly re-entry into the Pantemonium.
‘If Frondier brings Bael out.’
What does it mean in the end?
A completed pantemonium that no one has ever entered.
There was a time when all the high-ranking demons, including the Seven Deadly Sins, were fighting to become the master of Pantemonium.
If only Frontier succeeded now while everyone else has failed.
gulp.
Marco’s throat is pounding, and he feels his tension unfamiliar to him.
‘If only now.’
Marco glares at Frondier.
To be honest, I didn’t think it was acting.
The gaze that Frontier is looking at is most likely not just empty space. It’s clearly looking somewhere other than here.
If Frontier has entered the Pantemonium, and as a result is currently standing still like this.
‘I can kill him now.’
Frontier is currently completely defenseless.
Regardless of how it was possible to re-enter the Pantemonium, if it had been successful, Frondier would be walking around inside his Pantemonium right now.
No matter how close Marco gets, you won’t know until just before his aura pierces your heart.
Above all, Marco is a devil with excellent speed. Aten can deliver a blow that cannot even be reacted to. It would be easier than anyone else to take Frondier’s life now.
‘This guy is dangerous. It’s the same even if you’re not Satan. Even if you think about all the devils, he is the one who should disappear.’
Marco’s hand went up. His aura gradually gathered to one point and became sharper.
Slowly get into position to strike. One foot stayed behind, and my inner hand was pulled back. Even when just standing still, you can lunge at incredible speeds, but if you take a stance like this, the speed becomes even faster.
‘… … This guy… … .’
But there Marco hesitates.
Of course, his mercy was not activated. It’s not like he had any affection for Frondier, whom he had only just met, much less was he an enemy.
Just simply.
Entering the Pentamonium and taking out the person inside is an act that no one has ever succeeded in.
Marco just wanted to see it.
‘If something like that is really successful, it will change the perception of Pantemonium so far.’
However, if you kill Frontier now, that perception will still not change. No one would even listen to the situation that Marco witnessed.
Become the owner of Pantemonium. The meaning is clear.
The devil has reached a place no one has ever reached. It is already a kind of gigantic achievement, an event so great that Frondier also has his own axis among the demons.
Just as the Seven Deadly Sins call them by the name of each sin, just as Bael is the ‘King of Hell’.
Frondier, as well, would be a demon that received such a nickname and would recognize its existence.
“… … “It’s a shame.”
Marco muttered.
Demons are ultimately a collection of curiosities. I also want to see Frontier like that.
That is why, rather, Frontier must die.
“If you were a devil, I might have let you live.”
After Marco muttered that one word,
Pot!
It moves toward the frontier, as if piercing a straight line toward the frontier.
“… … !”
At that time, a wall blocked Marco’s eyes.
No, it cannot be called a wall ‘yet’.
As if blocking his path comes first, the black water goes in front of him and only then builds a wall behind him.
“This is the same… … !”
It’s definitely true. A black liquid used by Frontier.
fault!
Marco jumped into the air. I couldn’t think leisurely while clearly seeing what was blocking my path.
Instead, he jumped over the black wall and quickly looked around.
‘How on earth! No matter how free a material is, it cannot move on its own.’
And Marco was soon found.
It was seen for a brief moment as it jumped over the wall.

One side of the wall of the huge building that had been standing there for a while was now gone.
“… … “That woman.”
The person inside is, of course, Elysia. She stretched out her hand, bit her lip, and seemed to be controlling the black sky.
Elysia shouted.
“You, you, you… … !’
No, the voice was a bit lacking in shouting.
‘How can she control that black substance?’
There is no time to think any further. Marco’s eyes turned to Frontier again.
Heukcheon’s speed is far below what he can jump. Certainly, the speed is different from when Frontier handles it.
‘I’ll cut your head off like this!’
Marco climbs over the wall being built and falls to reach Frondier.
The tips of his claws were stained with aura, and he struck Frondier,
Wow!
Directly above Frontier’s head, a huge metallic sound rings out.
“Stop it.”
And what appeared.
“… … Bael… … !”
Bael was fully awake, holding the sword, and blocking his claws with the back of the sword.
That is,
“Oh, you’re back.”
Frontier’s eyes returned to focus.
He took out Bael again.
“Marcosias, what are you doing?”
Bael spits out a stern voice.
Marco answers.
“What are you doing, Bael?”
Marco glares at Bael, who blocks his claws.
In the midst of it all, Frondier is just looking at the two calmly.
Then, as if he suddenly remembered something, he turned his head and waved his hand a little farther away.
“Elysia! thank you! “Thanks to you, I survived!”
He expressed his gratitude towards Elysia who was far away.
Elysia was trembling in the half-disappeared workshop.
“You, you, did you mean ‘permission’? “You bastard!”
“Bad? “It only allowed me to control the black sky.”
“How scared I was of that! “I’m afraid that devil might attack me.”
“But if you were really worried about that, you could have kept quiet. “There was no need to use the Black Sky to protect me.”
The black sky that Frondier has now is no different from his limbs.
The reason is that Black Heaven was integrated as Helheim’s mana.
However, once the mana is removed, the black sky returns to the previous black sky.
In other words, it is just a ‘magical substance’ that anyone can use, which turns into metal when you apply force and returns to liquid when you remove force.
Frondier hid Elysia in the workshop, but in fact, the material in the workshop did not contain the mana of his Helheim. It was just a black sky.
Elysia knew that as soon as she entered. As a wizard, she noticed that the mana Frondier had in the workshop was missing.
And in that case, the black sky can be made to move with Elysia’s ‘telekinesis’.
The wall of black heaven blocking Marco’s path was none other than Elysia’s telekinesis.
“It would have been safer if you had left me to die, but you are the one who took the risk, Elysia.”
“You, you, you! “That’s it!”
“hahahahaha, give up. “Elysia.”
Frondier laughed so coolly that the viewer felt embarrassed.
“You are that kind of guy.”
“… … Ugh… … .”
Elysia is at a loss for words. The pain doesn’t go away, so I just huff and puff with a red face.
Meanwhile, Bael and Marcosias continued their confrontation with each other.
“Marcosias, you don’t know what will happen to me if Frontier dies, right?”
Bael speaks in an unpleasant manner.
Frondier entered the Pentamonium to take out Bael. So if you kill him, of course Bael will never be able to escape.
“Bael, you should have known. What it means to raise and defeat Pentamonium.”
However, Marco said it as if it was absurd.
“Besides, if you really killed Frondier before you escaped as you said, you would have had cause to blame me.”
But that is not the situation now.
Bael, who woke up to reality, blocked Marco’s blow.
If Bael had left Marco alone, the best story could have come out from their perspective, with Frondier killed and Bael returning alive.
“What are you thinking, Bael? “Just now was the greatest opportunity.”
“… … .”
Bael silences him.
Instead, Frontier speaks.
“That’s right, Bael has decided to be on my side now.”
“… … !”
Marco’s eyes momentarily wavered at those words. After reading it, Bael lightly pushed the back of his sword. Accordingly, Marco stepped back and widened the distance.
The moment Bael blocked his attack, this situation was expected to some extent.
Frontier took Bael out of the Pentamonium. It is natural to offer this much in return.
‘But Bael, I can’t believe you followed that suggestion.’
Bael, the so-called king of hell, would accept a deal from a mere human. That too to save one’s life.
“The nickname ‘King’ is funny, Bael.”
Marco said to Bael. If Bael has joined Frondier’s side, then of course he is Marco’s enemy from now on.
Marco has already taken his stance. We are ready to deal with Bael, who is angry at his words.
However, even though he heard words that were close to insults, Bael did not move.
“Speak as you please, Marcosias.”
“… … Bael, come to your senses. Is dealing with humans that important? Now that you are out of the pantemonium, there is no need to hear such promises. Do I have to explain this one by one? “We are devils!”
Originally, a devil was a being who made a contract with humans and played with that contract.
It is their ‘duty’ to make people angry, taint them with greed, and pollute their souls.
For them, you should not even expect the fulfillment of a pure promise, and it would be the devil to do your best to betray that expectation.
“Yes, but I have changed my mind.”
Nevertheless, Bael says:
I will stand next to Frontier. It was like saying that.
“… … “Are you going to betray Agoris, Bael?”
Agoris. It is the name of the western continent.
If Bael had joined Frondier’s side, hostility with Agoris would have been as obvious as fire.
“no.”
There Frondier spoke.
“Because I plan to help the Devil of the West.”
“… … what?”
“One of your men, one of the ones that flew in from the west, spoke to me. ‘Humans have nothing to do.’”
During the first attack by the western demons, Frondier faced a demon.
The Devil of the West seeks to find hidden demons in the Empire. I want to take revenge on them. They say there is no place for humans to intervene there.
“If you don’t intend to set yourself up in the empire, there is plenty of room for negotiation.”
“… … “Nonsense.”
“Why did I bother to save Bael again? The name ‘Bael’ is too big to take hostage. If you do something wrong, it will literally be an all-out war between humans and devils. “There’s no way you would want that.”
Yes. Frontier’s primary goal is to prevent war.
“But Marco, you are the problem.”
There Frondier saw Marco.
“Let me make it clear now, you are Satan’s servant.”
“Shut up… … !”
Of course, Bael was surprised by these words.
“… … what? 72Are you the devil?”
One thing I wanted to hide from Bael. Marco is a subordinate of Satan. Is currently.
“So, under Satan’s instructions, you hoped to somehow create a battlefield for the western devils within the empire. In other words, as long as you and Satan’s demons don’t interfere, there is always room for me to negotiate with the demons of the west.”
Frontier now issues a clear warning.
“You’re the one who needs to be clear about your side, Marco. Are you a servant of Satan, or are you a 72 demon like Bael? Depending on which one you choose, I will decide your treatment.”
Arrogant words, as if Marco’s life was in Frondier’s hands.
However, for Marco now, those words are not an exaggeration.
“And if you are a devil of Satan, you can keep your mouth shut. Because I will slit your throat. But if you want to save your life, if you want to live as a 72 devil, not as a subordinate of Satan.”
Pababat!
With Frondier’s remarks, countless sword blades born in the air instantly surrounded Marco.
“Ugh… … !”
The blade was aiming at his neck from all directions, ready to pounce at any moment.
“You will have to spit it all out. Why did you crawl under Satan and what is your purpose? “What resentment and revenge the demons of the West have against the demons of the Empire.”
“You… … !”
“That’s the way you live. Marcosias.”
