Regressor’s Life After Retirement

—————————————

[ Whereabouts of the final puzzle (2) ]

[Kkeuk [Kkeuk…]

Belial shook his shoulders and burst into laughter. It was so ridiculous I couldn’t stand it.

Insignificant humans.

They are weaker than the bugs raised in the demon world, and for such a weak subject, they are no less greedy than the devil, and resist the devil lord without even knowing the subject… To

such insignificant creatures.

[Did I… end up like this?…]

Belial was lying down with holes all over his body.

All eight horns, each emitting different magic, were cut off and the wings were torn to shreds.

A stake refined with divine power was embedded in the limb, with only the upper part remaining.

[Hehehe….]

Humanity hunted the Demon King, but did not kill him.

Instead, they chose to capture them alive.

To gain more than just killing.

It was a humiliation worse than death for the Demon King.

[Humans…]

At that moment, strong magical energy formed in Belial’s eyes. The Demon King gathered all his remaining power and exploded it all at once.

[Do you think you can treat me like a trophy?!!]

The devil’s roar resounds loudly.

Enormous magical power bursting out at the same time.

It was a suicide attack.

Fuwaaaaaaa!

But that power did not spread until the end.

Just before the magic that exploded from Belial’s body swirled like a storm,

“Kkkkkk.” Hey. “If that’s the case, you’re the only one who loses.”

Before we knew it, Cheonmugeuk had jumped onto Belial’s body and stepped on the demon king’s chest.

Coo!

The Heavenly Demon’s magic power concentrated in the heart disrupted Belial’s magical power. Due to the backflow of magical energy, Belial suffered several times more.

[Keueuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu us…!!]

Cheon Mugeuk, who had fought a gruesome battle, also looked like he was having a hard time suppressing the power of the Demon King.

“What are you doing! “I’ll be holding it down, so hurry up and complete the bar margin!”

“Jonmyeong!”

The magicians of the Heavenly Demon Church infused even more powerful energy into the method.

Wooooow!

The place where Demon King Belial fell.

A huge formation with a radius of 100 meters was spread out around it.

It wasn’t just the starting method. The magic circle of the Gaia continent was drawn overlapping with the formation.

“We will also hurry up with the sealing magic. “Don’t save your magic power!”

“yes! master!”

The wizards receiving Hawkin’s instructions raised their magic power with sweat dripping from their foreheads.

Wooooow!

The martial arts method and the sealing magic of the Gaia continent.

Two powers with different but similar effects exerted synergy, suppressing the power of the Demon King and sealing his soul.

[Keuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuch

…!!

Belial’s body began to harden like stone, and

after a while, Belial turned into a stone statue and became completely silent.

“Whew… I can’t believe it took this much effort to catch just one thing.”

Cheon Mu-geuk wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked around.

The deck of the Demon King’s Castle was literally devastated.

Even though we made all kinds of preparations, laid traps, dug traps, and waited, the damage to our troops was significant.

‘There will be much more blood flowing in the future.’

Cheonmugeuk looked at the dead and injured members of the Heavenly Demon Church with a sad look for a moment.

The Demon King was much stronger than humanity imagined.

Knowing that Daein had captured a demon lord alone in Busan, Cheon Mugeuk thought in his heart that he could take on the demon lord alone.

‘It was an unthinkable mistake. If I were alone, it wouldn’t have been enough.’

The demon king Balaam, who was captured by Daein in Busan, used an expedient method to cross to Earth when the passage to Hell Gate was much narrower than it is now.

Because the loss of power was so severe, even Daein alone was able to deal with it somehow.

However, Belial passed through a much wider passage than before and was able to manifest with much of his original power preserved by sharing his power with other demon kings of the demon world.

‘…How strong are those who come over intact?’

Cheon Mu-geuk, who fought the Demon King himself, felt the hand holding the sword tremble.

“Cluck…”

But it wasn’t fear, it was joy.

The fact that there were so many beings from outside the heavens stimulated the desire of the heavenly demons to become stronger in their fighting spirit.

“Cluck. “Is this the first thirst I’ve felt in a while?”

The Heavenly Demon quietly closed his eyes and relived his fight with the Demon King. There was something I realized through this fight.

“Um…”

“Priest Taesang is busy right now, so if you have anything to say, please tell me.”

Joo Sang-wook, who was approaching Cheon Mu-geuk, stopped at the sharp blue eyes of the Grand Elder Poisonous Blood Demon Emperor.

“It’s no different, but I want to tell you that I will now go down to earth…”

Although Joo Sang-wook did not even blink in the face of ordinary adepts or martial people, the Taesang Cult and the Grand Elder of the Heavenly Demon Church were one of the few exceptions.

“You can take care of that.”

“…Then I will go down to the ground.”

After a while, the Demon King’s Castle, having completed its most important mission, landed towards the Union Command Headquarters.

-Hull damage rate 34%

-Enter emergency recovery mode.

-Disarm the energy shield.

– Convert to mobile tank mode to save energy.

Slam! Slam! Drurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

As it descended to the ground, the Demon King’s Castle changed from a huge battleship to a tank suitable for ground warfare.

The caterpillar protruded from the bottom of the battleship, and the streamlined body shrank and became more rigid.

Couuuuuuuuck!

The Demon King landed on the ground, raising a huge amount of dust.

“Younghee! Master! Is everyone okay!”

After a while, Baek Chang-su rushed over the fortress and checked on the safety of his acquaintances.

At that moment, Cheonmugeuk also gained enlightenment and opened his eyes.

“Cluck. Changsoo, you seem to have had a hard time too.”

Baek Chang-soo’s appearance was beyond words.

His combat uniform had become tattered and he could barely wear it, and his entire body was covered in the blood of demons and beasts, making him the equivalent of a bloodthirsty person.

Baek Chang-soo smiled at that sight.

“I only dealt with small children, so what trouble is there?”

It was excessive humility.

From the moment Belial fell into the trap and began to be attacked, even more monsters and demons poured out of Hell Gate than before.

Is it out of loyalty or anger?

The demon kings deployed a huge number of troops to attack the allied forces.

From then on, the Allied forces on the ground also had to fight a very difficult battle.

Baek Chang-soo, who was at the Allied Command, had to rush to the scene and fight.

“Cheonmugeuk. “I guess I was lucky this time too.”

The sword saint who suddenly appeared nearby looked at Cheonmugeuk and said with regret.

Cheon Mu-geuk smiled cheerfully and responded.

“Cluck. Even a brat like you survived, so how can I be defeated by the devil?”

It was too friendly of a conversation for absolute masters of the True Demon to have, but the masters of the Murim Alliance and the Heavenly Demon Religion seemed familiar with it.

After a while, Queen Alina and Sir Leonard also came to check that Hawkin was okay.

“But is it okay for everyone to come like this? “Isn’t the gate open yet?”

Baek Chang-su smiled and nodded in response to Cheon Mu-geuk’s question.

“It’s almost all sorted out. The gate is closing, and the remaining monsters are really just petrels, so the military is being sent in to clear them out. “Even ordinary soldiers need combat experience.”

With the fall of Demon King Belial, First-Hellgate’s power also rapidly weakened.

One by one, the gates were disappearing and their numbers were rapidly decreasing.

-It is expected to take 17 minutes and 35 seconds for all gates to disappear.

Everyone looked proud at the analysis of the Demon King Castle’s main computer.

‘We prevented the apocalypse and captured the devil!’

It was also an achievement achieved with surprisingly little damage.

Of course, there were no casualties, but considering the scale of the enemy, it could be called a miracle.

“Cluck. “He would be really happy if he found out.”

“You will hear from the vice president soon.”

“I got a call a while ago saying that they found out the whereabouts of the last jewel…”

“So when can I meet him?”

“I want to see Lily…”

As soon as Cheonmugeuk began, everyone started talking about Daein and Lily.

Everyone there had a connection with Daein, and it was as if they had come here because of Daein.

However, the main character of the story had not been seen for several months.

It was natural for everyone to wonder where they were, what they were doing, and when they would return to Earth.

“Cluck. That guy indeed. “I heard that the disciples are full of blessings.”

Cheon Mu-geuk looked like he was full after hearing his disciple’s stories from all over the place.

He was a disciple who ran around trying to save the whole world because martial arts wasn’t enough.

He was a guy who said his dream was to live a comfortable life, but actually jumped into the most dangerous job.

Who wouldn’t like a guy like that?

‘Cluck. That’s why women get confused like that.’

From earlier, the invisible energy battle between the three women – Baek Young-hee, Allie, and Nam Gung-hyeon – was amazing.

“Hmm….”

“Hmph….”

“Ha….”

There wasn’t much conversation, but as each woman represented(?) a dimension, sparks almost flew into the air.

Cheon Mu-geuk looked at that and smiled slightly.

“They say a hero doesn’t shy away from three wives and concubines… How can you turn down everything and still end up like that? “Cluck, click, click.”

Anyway, it was an interesting sight to see.

It was a time when most of the First-Hellgate was destroyed and humanity had no doubt about its victory.

Tsutssu Hung ….

The black fog flowed out of the short -term Hellgate and formed a huge giant in the air.

And a voice like thunder echoed throughout the desert.

[I congratulate you on your victory, despite being an enemy, you showed great mercenary skills and a cunning plan.]

The giant made of black fog had a blurry shape.

Only in the area visible to the naked eye was a red light like lava escaping, making it difficult to gauge its true nature.

[But, humans. Do you know that the enemies you have risked your lives to defeat are only a handful of demonic soldiers?] The

thunderous voice grew louder and louder.

“Ugh….”

“Ugh!”

The soldiers who could not control mana covered their ears and knelt down. Blood flowed from their ears and noses.

[I will give you a brief reprieve. When My Army arrives here again, I will bring glory and blessings to those who kneel and worship Me. However, even then, if you point a knife at me…]

The evil magic spread throughout the desert.

The eyes of those who were weak and unable to resist the magical power became hazy.

“Ugh….”

“Demon King….”

At that moment,

“Go!!”

Cheonmugeuk kicked off the floor and soared into the sky.

Cheonmugeuk reached the height of the fog giant’s face in one go and swung his sword to cut down the fog.

“If you lose, you won’t be able to quit!”

The Heavenly Demonic Energy extended from his sword and tore the fog apart.

Sigh!

The evil magic that possessed people was dispersed.

But the thunderous voice still rang out.

[You incredibly strong human being. I have been keeping an eye on you.]

Srurr.

The scattered fog came together again to form the shape of a giant.

Cheonmugeuk swung his sword again and cut it again, but the fog gathered together again and again.

‘It’s an illusion without substance.’

Cheonmugeuk stopped his sword and glared at his opponent.

The fog giant looked at Cheonmugeuk with interest.

[Are you the one who brought people from various dimensions together?]

“Clark. “I don’t know what he’s doing, but… if you want to ask a question, wouldn’t it be polite to reveal your name first?”

[―I am Baal. [He is the most supreme being in the demon world.]

The moment Baal spoke his true name, thunder sounded everywhere and a strong wind blew.

“……”

Cheonmugeuk glared at the fog giant with a stern expression.

[Baal]

The most powerful being among the demon lords I heard from Daein.

He was the actual head of the demon world.

[I will ask again. Did you gather that army that opposes me?]

The fur on my entire body stood on end. Oh my, I got goosebumps. The opponent was an entity that made even the peerless warrior tremble just by gazing from beyond the dimension.

“Cluck. Of course, the person I am in charge of is a great person, but…”

So Cheonmugeuk glared at the other person, showing his white teeth. He was a born warrior.

“I am just a warrior and cannot become a vessel to contain the world like that guy.”

[That guy?]

Baal asked in a curious voice. However, Cheonmugeuk had no intention of giving any more hints to the enemy.

“When you’re done talking, get out of the way. “Do you think I won’t be able to cut it just because it’s an illusion?”

Seuuuuuu….

Cheonmugeuk slowly raised his sword and aimed it straight at the fog giant.

An ordinary sword that does not even contain sword energy, let alone strength.

But Baal recognized the amazing power contained in the sword.

[…Amazing. Are you really human?]

“Clark. “You must have quite an eye for understanding the power of the heart and sword.”

It is a sword that pierces the essence of the opponent.

It was enough to wound Baal’s soul, which was connected to that fog giant.

[…good night. I’ll ask any questions I have when we meet next time.]

Srurr….

The fog giant disappeared like melting snow.

I left one more word as if I was disappointed.

[It won’t take that long.]

And even the last remaining Hell Gate was completely destroyed.

At that moment,

“Cough!”

Beetle.

Cheonmugeuk stumbled, coughing up blood from his mouth. He wiped the blood flowing from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand.

‘As expected, it’s still too much.’

Actually, I was bluffing.

Although he was successful in driving out Baal with the unfinished Heart Sword, his energy and blood were completely distorted thanks to this.

Nevertheless, Cheon Mu-geuk was in a good mood.

“Cluck. “That guy is the strongest guy in the demon world.”

Because he was a warrior whose fighting spirit burned as his enemy grew stronger.

After a while, the warriors of the Heavenly Demon Church and Baek Chang-su came running to Cheon Mu-geuk, who had come down to the ground.

“Master Taesang!”

“Master! Are you okay?”

Cheon Mu-geuk smiled at those people who were looking at him with worried expressions.

“Chuckle. Don’t worry about something that doesn’t matter.”

It was at that time that a great man’s voice was heard from the speakers of the Demon King Castle.

-Get out of there right now!
