Episode
97 .
The eastern part of the continent was the closest region to the Devil’s Edge. Among them, the cliff area in the northeastern part of the Giant’s Forest was particularly close to the Demonic Landscape.
If you climbed on the edge of the overhanging rock wall, you could see the demon scene with your naked eyes. Of course, the weather must be sunny.
In other words, the cliff overhang was visible even in the land of demons.
Any beach in the Magician. A huge demon was stepping on the sandy beach and looking at the continent.
A huge body of well over 10m, bursting muscles and long bull horns were the hallmarks of high-ranking demon balrogs. The contrast between the black skin and hazy eyes was very bizarre.
The bipedal monster stared blindly at the divine force field. Two hundred years ago, the barrier that Bacheksar left behind the Demonic Realm. No devil could break through that barrier.
If it wasn’t for that f*cking force field, the continent would have perished long ago. All the devil’s wishes were frustrated by mere barriers.
However, these frustrating years will soon come to an end. Goosian, who has crossed over to the continent, will frustrate Taekwang. Then the Great Devil will have the power to destroy the veins of the barrier.
The moment the pulse is cut off and the force field disappears, the continent will turn into a sea of blood. Taekwang was the one who violated the Mutual Non-Aggression Pact, so the justification was with the Devil.
Those thoughts were interrupted by someone’s voice.
“Balrog, the rift is closing.”
The Balrog’s gaze looked down. The little hunchback devil was whining.
The Balrog let out a low voice.
“Offer one more life to the Grand Duke.”
“I will proceed immediately.”
He was talking about Gu Xian’s heart. The hunchback immediately turned and ran. It was literally living hell.
Sandy beaches, naked and tortured humans. Everyone, regardless of gender or age, cried out.
A dwarf demon skinned the man’s back and planted maggots in it. He pulled out the woman’s limbs, put them in the old man’s mouth, and melted the child into magic.
The screams of the people did not cease. All of them were descendants of an old empire that was still alive in the Devil’s Nest. He fell into the devil’s slave and suffered for two hundred years.
It’s the same now. It was surrounding the altar of the demon ‘Petersarkin’ and helping to create a small crack in the divine barrier.
One more heart of Guxian went up on the altar.
As more brutal torture begins, the heart placed on the platform slowly weathers.
This consecration ceremony was a ceremony that allowed the celestial Peter Sarkin to intervene in earthly affairs. He was squeezing a tiny crack in the barrier by supporting the heart of the Great Devil. So that Gu Xian can come back.
Two of the nine hearts have already been consumed.
It was a tolerable loss. If Gu Xian succeeds in his mission, income that can’t even be compared to a heart will follow.
The source of despair will gain power comparable to that of a godhead. Also, the barriers surrounding the demon world will disappear completely.
It was good to see it as the cornerstone of the continental conquest.
The Balrog managed to contain his excitement and stared at the stationmaster again.
The crack was less than 1 cm in diameter, but it was wide enough for Gu Xian’s soul to return.
Even if the Great Devil failed in its mission, if that space was prepared, the soul could be transferred back to the Devil’s Realm.
I will build a shape with one of my remaining hearts.
Yes, even if I failed, I had to come back that way.
but.
What does that mean? The balrog’s eyes were stained with wonder. It was because he saw black smoke flying in the air.
Guxian’s magic. In other words, it was the soul of the great devil who abandoned his body.
He seemed very urgent as if he was being chased by something.
Why the hell was it coming back like that, the balrog couldn’t figure out at all. If it was a failure, it would have been enough to burst the heart.
At that time, a very unfortunate hypothesis flashed through the Balrog’s mind.
What if your heart was stolen? If that was the case, Gu Xian had no choice but to choose that method.
The panicked Balrog tried to keep his cool as much as possible. Fortunately, he realized his role in time.
The moment the soul passes through the barrier, the rift can be closed. At least the great devil won’t be isolated on the continent.
In a word, Gu Xian failed. The Balrog clicked his tongue and shouted at the hunchback.
“Stop offering at the signal!”
The demons answered right away.
The Balrog began timing. The distance between Gusian and the barrier is about 100m. A blue figure was chasing after him, but there was a high probability that he would not be able to catch up.
The distance narrows in an instant. 60…, 30…, when they finally arrived, the Balrog shouted.
“Close…”
Before I could finish my words, something rose up from the sea in front of me. Whoops! The seawater exploded in fountains and scattered in all directions.
I clearly saw the soaring form. saltwater crocodile. It was an appearance captured in an instant, but it quickly changed into a human form.
A blonde man soared into the blue sky. Having completely covered the sun, he was holding a new spear with a length of over 100m.
The pure white spear was no longer a human weapon. It could not be seen as an armament intended to kill demons or humans. Truly divine. It was the god’s weapon to judge the earth.
Gargantua greedily devoured the distant divine power. It burned brighter than the sun, and dyed the broad daylight with pure white itself.
The demons’ eyeballs melted like snow. The suffering humans stared blankly at it.
The divine power left Tae-gwang’s hand.
A ray of brilliance connected the sky and the ground. At that moment, the radius burned to pure white.
All the malice that came into contact with the divine evaporated.
Eventually, when the brilliance faded, the surroundings were quiet. The giggling hybrids disappeared without a trace.
The people who had been crying were staring at Aiden with their mouths tightly shut.
Pajijijik! Guxian’s soul hovered outside without being able to penetrate the barrier. It’s because Aiden destroyed the altar before he came in. Thus, the crack was completely closed.
Because it was a barrier that only blocked demons, Iden was free to enter and exit.
“Poetry, my God…”
“Oh God!”
“It is God!”
Intuitive humans began to bow to the floor one by one. The people hanged on the gallows looked at Aiden even as they groaned in pain.
It was salvation for those who were dying like insects.
Yona, who arrived late, stepped on the beach of the Devil’s View. I walked on the sandy beach and looked around.
“Stand, His Holiness…”
“finished.”
Not a single demon survived. I must have seen the balrog, but there was no body left.
Seeing that his stats had risen considerably, he must have been swept away to death.
I thought it was fresher than expected. Even the distance he swam was short, so he arrived much faster than Gu Xian.
Subsequently, Saya reached the front of the barrier. Floating in the air, he looked at Aiden.
“Iden.”
Calling him, I threw Uriel into the barrier. Aiden immediately embraced Uriel and said.
“Uriel, heal them. It’s urgent, so we have to do it as quickly as possible and leave the demon spectacle.”
If other great devils or princes came in, it would be quite difficult. Even Iden couldn’t stand against all of them with this member.
Aiden said to Jonah.
“Hand out the scales to the people.”
I was thinking of taking everyone back to the continent. If left here, fate would have been obvious.
Aiden started searching around the ruined altar. Shortly thereafter, a huge ship was found among the collapsed rubble.
When opened, the seven black hearts of Guxian were revealed.
‘One is missing.’
Guxian was originally a demon with twelve hearts.
One destroyed by Aiden in the Principality.
One in Gielan’s hand.
Two recorded on the altar stone tablets were consecrated.
If so, there should be eight left in the ham. When I counted again, it was seven.
Apparently, Guxian had left one of his hearts on the mainland as insurance. If we had all gathered here, we would have killed him right away, but it was a bit disappointing.
Iden looked out of the barrier.
Saya was harassing Gu Xian’s soul with blue energy.
Aiden looked at her and said.
“Saya, I’m sorry.”
Having left her injured and came here, Saya had no choice but to be sad.
she said, shaking her head slowly.
“What about an apology? It hurt a little, so give it to me later. That’s all you need.”
Aiden stared at her for a moment, then nodded. Then he waited for Uriel and Jonah. There was still a bit left to organize, but I was thinking of going back to the continent and finishing it.
*
The remaining personnel in the cave immediately arrested Shiron and seated him next to Yupe.
The wounded Heaven Demon couldn’t properly inhale demonic energy. Hee-hee-hee, I was just struggling and crying.
Sein, who was worse than that, gathered the demonic energy flowing from Shiron in both hands. A terrible energy penetrated his skin, but he persevered.
It flowed straight into Yufe’s mouth.
Euron and Daryl looked a little taken aback. Because I knew Yufe’s personality well. I might bite you off.
“Sein, Sein!”
“There are still scars from being bitten by that guy. be careful.”
Yufe was already showing off the majesty of a famous horse. It’s no longer a foal, and if bitten, it’s enough to tear off your wrist.
However, he did not point his teeth at Sein. I didn’t even know if I remembered the attention and affection I received from her when I was a baby.
He accepted and ate the Magi handed over.
The wounds on his broken leg and his stomach skin were slowly healing.
Moments later, Yufe twisted her whole body and stood up. After vigorously stroking it, it spread its wings.
A few strands of pure white feathers fell and fluttered slowly.
Yupe turned her head out of the cave.
Giellan smiled and said.
“Looks like you are looking for my master.”
As soon as the words were finished, Yufe started to run. The sound of hooves echoed pleasantly. In an instant, it passed through the cave entrance and flapped its wings.
It wasn’t the first flight. However, I have never burned anyone.
Yupe flew through the air following the reverberation of the distant divine power.
The Heavenly Demon disappears like that, and after a while.
There was a long neighing of horses in the sky.
Euron jumped out of the cave and looked up at the sky. The densely packed giant trees were completely blocking the view.
All I could hear was the sound of branches breaking. The moment the startled mountain birds flew up, the green that covered the son-in-law was pierced.
Yupe fell in an instant and landed softly. Small wind pressure spread in all directions.
Iden, who was riding, looked very satisfied. You’ll be saving a lot of time from now on.
Aiden immediately jumped down.
I went up to Euron and patted him on the shoulder.
“I won’t leave Petra up to you.”
The famous horse of the church that has been together for 4 years. Euron’s mouth opened wide.
Daryl, who came running late, slapped himself on the forehead as if he was late.
“A bear-like fox. Why did I want to run away, damn it.”
“I’ll give you a ride later if you feel like it.”
Aiden smiled lightly and opened the box he had brought from the Demon Realm. He gestured to Euron and Daryl. He gave each of the two who approached him a piece of his heart.
Both of them possessed powers related to destruction, but it seemed that all of Aiden’s followers had abilities related to the great devil.
Anyway, if you feed the great devil at this stage, there is a high probability that amazing growth will follow.
Iden said.
“Explode.”
From noble mtl dot com
While the two were puzzled, they struck or stepped on the heart with all their might. Didn’t do any damage.
Their brute strength has not yet been able to destroy even defenseless hearts.
At that moment, Daryl’s heart began to vibrate.
Soon after, like an egg just before hatching, it shook. It seems that Saya freed Gu Xian’s soul. Just as the heart composes the body, bundles of blood vessels and muscles vomited out in all directions.
Iden immediately took over and held it tightly with his grip.
Gusian’s soul transferred to another heart in the box, but Iden’s response was the same.
He could no longer return to the Demonic Realm.
After a while, a desperate voice leaked from the vaguely structured mouth.
I couldn’t hear it well. Iden said to Euron, Daryl, and Gielan.
“Cover your ears.”
Guxian’s hallucinations are also expressed through hearing. There was no need to take the risk.
Of course, Iden was out of the question. Because I was able to endure hundreds of trials of despair.
Aiden looked up at the protruding heart and said.
“Don’t even think about dying in peace.”
There were countless ways to use him.
