Chapter 1623 – 1623. Plum Swordsman Reincarnated in the Count Family
“I know what the demon king has hidden. The powers that the demon king really cherishes.”
“…….”
It is a masterpiece. It was a pretty tempting proposal to kill him.
‘If the demon king has an idea, there is a high possibility that the devil with the power he cherishes is managed separately. This devil’s suggestion is credible.’
Contemplating, I nodded. If you don’t want to, just kill this guy.
Gargar, the self-proclaimed demon of containment, smirked. He stumbled out of the prison.
“This is true. I don’t know how many decades I’ve been walking like this. It’s good that you haven’t forgotten how to walk.”
“Who said you could come out?”
“Why is this happening? You nodded your head and agreed. Don’t worry, I have no intention of attacking you. To be honest, I think I will lose even if I fight.”
“Don’t do anything suspicious. If you do anything irritating… I’ll cut that throat.”
“Okay. I guarantee my life.”
“Don’t worry.”
I had no intention of killing him until it was all over.
I exchanged glances with Elena. Sending the will to kill when the need arises. I don’t know if I got it right, but Elena crossed her arms and nodded her head.
“Ugh. I get it. I’ll listen to you tonight Even if you refuse me, I will force you to do it. It is unavoidable.”
“…….”
I can’t tell if it’s a joke or not. I guess i’m joking Even if it wasn’t, it didn’t seem to matter.
“In that prison, there is a demon called Chalmick imprisoned. His power is the Power of Transformation, and he can transform into something. However, since the ability of the transformation target cannot be used, it is just a trick.”
“It’s a power that doesn’t seem to be useful in battle. Why did the demon king imprison him in the dungeon?”
“I took the form of a demon king and wandered around the demon realm and had accidents.”
“Indeed.”
Again, Elena opened the door using her magic.
Compared to the prison Gargar was in, there were no structural differences. The demon also stood in the center of the room. That’s because it looks just like me.
Displeasure soared. His hands moved before he could judge anything with his head.
Thunderstorm. Thunderstorm.
A red thunderbolt galloped through the darkness and cut off the demon’s head. The devil makes a surprised face. It was even more unpleasant because it was my face.
The demon fell to the floor and returned to its original form. Ungainly Skeleton Bones. That was the true identity of the devil.
“I have no car. Were you that upset?”
“Elena. Someone taking the form of Jim… It’s far more unpleasant than having bugs crawling all over you.”
Got out of jail
Gargar took a step back from me.
“Hey, you’re scary. No matter how much the devil is like that, will you kill me without even talking to me? Aren’t you curious what information the devil might have?”
Instead of answering Gargar’s question, I asked a question in reverse.
“Why did you betray the Demon King?”
“You are misunderstanding something. I’m not on the devil’s side from the beginning. After being captured by the demon king and imprisoned for thousands of years, how can you be loyal to the demon king? The reason why the demon king is called the demon king is simply based on the logic of power. He is called the Demon King because he is the strongest in the Demon Realm.”
“There seem to be quite a few demons following the Demon King.”
“If you don’t want to die, follow me. What can I do? Well, the demons in this prison are full of demons like me who have no intention of following the demon lord.”
Hwaryeonbido stretched out to the side. Hwaryeonbido’s blade scrapes the walls of the dungeon. Even the Aura Blade was used, but there was not a single scratch on the wall.
“The walls of the dungeon are solid.”
“It is the power of sealing. It is an authority that can seal the target for eternity if the conditions are met. It is one of the powers that the Demon King especially treasures.”
“It looks like a dangerous power.”
“Not dangerous. But it’s such a tricky power. The first condition to use the sealing power is that the opponent must be subdued. Whether it’s a battle or a bet, you have to make your opponent feel defeated in some way.”
I think I know why he didn’t kill himself after spending hundreds of years in the dungeon. Being trapped in the form of a seal, you can’t commit suicide.
“Does that mean that all the demons imprisoned have been defeated by the Demon King?”
“If the demon king knows the name of the demon, he can know the power he possesses. It’s one of the mighty abilities of the Demon King. Fighting the demon king is the same as fighting after revealing all your cards. On the other hand, the Demon King can use up to 3 powers at the same time. The Demon King is too cautious, so surprise attacks don’t work well. In this situation, how will the devil fight the demon king and win?”
I turned my gaze to the next dungeon.
“Do you know who the devil is here?”
“Well. It must be Groma, the demon of the explosion. As his nickname suggests, he has the power of explosion.”
“How do you know so well?”
“At one time, I was an aide to the demon king. I was aiming for the back of the head while pretending to cooperate with the demon king… I never thought I would have had the power of mind reading.”
It was a word that could not be overheard.
My legs stopped while walking down the hallway.
“Where is the demon with the power of reading minds?”
If the demon king could read the other person’s mind with the power of mind-reading, Yuria would be greatly disadvantaged. You must find and kill the demon with the power of poison as soon as possible.
“He died before I was put in prison. I heard that he committed suicide. Why did he commit suicide… Well, it’s obvious Didn’t you read the demon king’s heart and judge that there was no future?”
Good luck if you’re already dead.
‘If there was a power of mind reading, the demon lord would have already used it and gained the upper hand. I was a bit impatient.’
Clap!
Elena opened the door to the dungeon.
As soon as the door was opened, an explosion occurred. She heard Gar Gar’s words and prepared for self-defence, so there was no damage.
“Kkekekekekekeke!”
The devil with a grotesque grin was a hairy creature the size of a watermelon. Very small arms and legs appeared through the fur. I couldn’t tell where the mouth and eyes were.
“Groma! It’s me!”
Gar Gar waved his hand at Rome.
“Kkekekekekekeke!”
That Rome smiled grotesquely and used her authority. A light flashes in front of Gargar. Gargar used the Power of Severance on the front. An explosion soon followed, but Gargar was unharmed.
“This! Stop and listen to me! Wouldn’t we join forces to get revenge on the demon lord?! If you….”
“Kkekekekekekeke!”
Groma did not listen to Gargar. Creates a series of explosions in the prison. It was a trick. The guy jumped up and tried to get out of prison.
“Stop.”
Grab Groma using telekinesis.
“Kke… Kekekeke… !”
Groma struggles. I used my telekinesis to detonate the groma. Pieces of Groma’s body fell to the floor.
“It’s a pity.”
Hooked
Hwaryeonbido’s blade pierced Gargar’s dwarf shoulder.
“Well. It hurts If I hadn’t been a demon, it would have been a mortal wound.”
“This is the last warning. All you have to do is guide. Do not presumptuously.”
“Okay. I will take your last warning. Would you mind putting this knife away?”
Pulled out the knife The wound on the shoulder stops bleeding and recovers in an instant. It was a devilish resilience.
After that, I walked down the hallway and opened the prison. The devil killed the visible tribe. Didn’t even have a conversation.
Most demons did not react properly to surprise. The reaction was slow, perhaps because it had been locked up for a long time. Among them, there were demons who wanted death because their will to live was broken during the long sealing time.
Having killed 70 demons in 20 minutes, I aimed the blade of the Hwaryeonbido at Gargar.
“Congratulations, demon slayer. You must be the first human in history to have killed so many demons. How are you feeling?”
“I have no feelings. Now tell me about the demons hidden by the demon king.”
Most of the demons imprisoned in the dungeon possessed great and troublesome powers. However, there were no demons who used the power of control, the power of possession, and the power of space, which were mainly used by the demon king. It must be somewhere other than here.
“There is a secret place somewhere in the castle. It is the place where the demon king used my authority to cut it off. The Demon King’s favorite demons will be trapped there.”
“Guide me.”
The voice he exhaled was cold.
Elena came to my side. She holds her tightly by my shoulder.
“Calm down. You don’t have to feel nervous. The demons you killed are not few. Even with that demon lord, there can be no blows at all. Maybe the Demon King is already dead.”
There was some truth in Elena’s words. The Demon King’s opponent was that Yuria. If the Demon King loses even the slightest bit, he will be fatally wounded.
“Jim never felt nervous.”
“I guess so.”
Elena laughed.
We followed Gargar and moved to the back of the Demon Castle.
There was a building that looked like a temple behind the demon castle. I narrowed my eyes and looked at the temple. This is because, unlike the demon castle that was destroyed using a meteor sword, the temple was intact.
“I didn’t know that a temple like this would be behind the demon castle.”
“It is the result of using various powers, such as the Power of Separation and the Power of Invisibility. It came out thanks to you killing the demons in the dungeon.”
The temple was beautiful rather than grand. Compared to the gloomy Mawangseong, it was unbelievable.
Elena crossed her arms and let out a low laugh. It was ridicule. She didn’t like God very much.
“Did the demon king build a temple and hide it? The faithful Demon King was here.”
“The Demon King does not worship God.”
“Then why did you build a temple here?”
“It is a temple for yourself. Devil. He wanted to become a demon god himself. He was someone who thought he was qualified to be the god of demons.”
“If he can use all demonic powers… Well, I don’t think it would be strange to call him a god.”
Elena nodded her head in agreement.
I asked Gargar a question.
“Is it related to the invasion of the human world?”
“To increase the number of demons. Unlike other creatures, demons naturally arise in places with high levels of unclean mana.”
“The more demons there are, the stronger the power of the demon king.”
“Its purpose is to erode the human world, build a demon castle, build a temple again, and reign as a demon god. There aren’t even a handful of demons who worship him.”
“Why?”
“He’s the one who catches demons with powers he likes and puts them in prison. Who likes a guy like that? Even though demons fear the demon lord, they don’t respect it.”
Gargar stepped forward and opened the temple door.
