Chapter 130
Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 130
30. The Demon King Descends (2)
While Yulgeum was teasing, the ship arrived at the opposite shore.
A group of troops appeared through the dense pine forest beyond the wide white sand beach.
It wasn’t a fairy.
They were one meter tall and had faces full of warts. The only thing that resembled a fairy was its pointed ears.
“Goblin?”
Deus frowned.
The guys riding the wolves were none other than goblin demons.
The Goblin Wolf Riders rushed towards the Deus party who had landed on the shore.
Two small goblins were riding on the wolf’s back.
While the goblin in front controlled the wolf, the goblin in the back stood on a platform and twirled an iron ball tied to a string.
Zeke
ran forward with his shield in front.
It was not because he believed in his own strength.
Protect everyone.
My mission as a warrior was engraved in my bones. The formula that the appearance of the enemy meant it was one’s turn was closer to common sense.
Sadimus approached Zeke’s back.
“It’s a demon. be careful.”
“Is that a demon?”
“It’s different from a monster without intelligence.”
Zeke’s eyes changed.
“I guess I’ll lean in.”
Sadimus recalled the look in Zeke’s eyes of a long-forgotten colleague.
He was the last man standing and was born and raised in the same village as Sadimus.
With the thought of wanting to become his strength, I reached for the grimoire. He lived for 100 years, once as an object of fear and once as an honored companion of a warrior.
“I’m not dead.”
The words I blurted out were swallowed by Wolf Rider’s scream-like cry.
A weapon called a bola, made of two iron weights connected by a strong rope, was projected from the hands of the Goblin Riders.
The sound of a whistle cutting through the wind hit Zeke.
Zeke took out his sword and swung it wide to block the bola.
“No matter how small the devil’s evil deeds are, they will not be able to escape my sword!”
The string was cut and the bolas flew away as they pleased.
In front of the dizzy battlefield, a pair of Wolf Riders
quickly approached, brandishing curved swords.
Zeke extended his back foot and pushed the shield forward.
Then, he slammed his shield down on the head of the wolf, which was the size of a human body, and dug into its side.
The shock was enormous. But Zeke maintained his position. The wolf lost its balance and fell over.
Even in the midst of a melee, Zeke continued to move forward.
The resistance was fierce.
The Goblin Riders attacked Zeke in a circle, treating him like prey.
But they were overlooking one fact.
The goblins were not the only ones they were dealing with.
Lakhe rolled on the ground.
“Thank you for your gratitude.”
As soon as the short sentence was finished, seven or eight wolves fell forward.
I got caught in a vine created by Lakhe.
The goblins that jumped out were crushed by the wolves and screamed.
Immediately, black arrows poured
down like rain.
It was the magic of Sadimus, a rare sorcerer who had accumulated a thousand years of magical power within his body.
Yulgeum’s auxiliary magic gently pushed Zeke’s back. Squire Nezar swung a large hammer and smashed the bone of a wolf that had broken away from the pack.
And Deus just stood behind everyone.
“You don’t fight, do you?”
Deus confidently answered the question asked by Atisha, the Imam of El Shallum.
“I am a merchant. “Isn’t it enough to cover travel expenses
?”
She sighed briefly.
“Because each person has a role.”
Atisha stepped forward and opened her hands toward the sky.
“We are fairies, the guardians of the forest and the guardians of God’s order. Guardian spirits, follow my command and help us now! Jeonghwa Station!”
Following her cries, the surrounding ground turned pale green.
The light gave strength to everyone on the land. It also restored my stamina
.
“Is this a wide-area blessing spell? “It’s pretty good.” Deus looked down at his feet.
I gently trampled on the light of purification and turned it off. It was a very uncomfortable feeling for him.
It wasn’t long before the Wolf Riders were liquidated.
Each one was just a class A monster.
Having formed an army, they reached the G level, but they were no match for Zeke’s current party.
Deus said something while burning the goblin’s body.
“There’s a warm welcome right from the start.”
Zeke helped Deus with his work with a stern expression.
Deus said as he glanced at him.
“Are you dissatisfied?”
“yes?”
“Burning these guys and giving them a funeral.”
Deus threw a goblin’s corpse into the fire pit.
The dry tree summoned by Lake burned white and swallowed the corpse.
“They are demons. enemy of man. “I’d rather curse the corpse.”
“Well then, you went and sat over there too?”
No one paid any attention to the corpse of the demon.
Just spit and pass by. They abandoned it because they thought it would become food for wild animals.
Another goblin was placed in the fire pit.
Deus was in a strange mood right now.
Low-level demons such as goblins were treated as original objects.
There was nothing to worry about if he killed tens of thousands of people with his own hands .
But…
I had complicated feelings about killing him using human power.
I turned my eyes to the other side of the forest.
I don’t know what was hiding in this forest, calling itself the Demon King, but it was mobilizing real demons.
If you go further, you will kill more demons.
By helping Zeke.
Zeke sighed briefly, picked up one of the goblin’s corpses, and placed it in the fire.
“No human would like a demon.”
“Is that so?”
“of course. Because of demons, wars so big that millions of people die every 100 years. I’ve never heard of a human doing anything wrong to a demon. “It’s just a coincidence.”
“Is that so?”
“Demons are absolute evil. Most of our warriors die in a war that happens once every 100 years. All living warriors except one who will carry on the family name participate in the war. And less than one in ten come back alive .”
Deus threw one ball and Zeke
threw another ball into the fire pit. The fire seemed to be fading, so Deus
added another pile of firewood.
“I can never live under the same sky with them.”
Deus captured the burning fire and Zeke’s voice in one heart.
And forgot.
It would be too complicated to leave, so
the group followed the guidance of the fairy Atisha
and went deeper into the forest.
This was not my first time visiting this forest.
I once came to Horsetail Woods at the request of my butler, Scatul.
The forest under the fairy’s spell was beautiful. The leaves sparkled like jewels and the wind was sweet as a whisper.
But what was left here now was just an old forest.
The broken branches and broken trunks were left to rot.
A mushroom with a strange smile
grew there.
Even while everyone was disgusted by the sight of the forest, Deus couldn’t stop laughing.
This was no longer a fairy forest.
It is the forest of the demon world.
The mushrooms whispered to themselves.
King, please come quickly.
Please trample on this cursed land.
Deus had no idea what lay beyond the forest. However, it did not seem absurd to say that the devil had descended
.
Night has come.
The steps were slow.
2 Mount Agaiatta, which seemed like it could be reached within 3 days, was not even visible yet.
I couldn’t help it. The forest kept hiding that place.
I have already gotten lost and wandered several times in the forest where even Imam, the leader of the fairies, is not welcome.
“Aren’t you scared?”
According to the order, it was Lakke and Zeke who stood in the night.
The rest of the people were taking a break now.
Lakhe asked in the black forest.
“Are you scared?”
“The things we hate most are dry land and fire. “Right now I feel like someone has set the tip of my leaf on fire.”
Zeke knew Lake’s identity. I felt like her analogy was just right.
This forest was now full of ghostly spirits.
Whatever life is, it
will be filled with discomfort.
Lakhe suddenly turned around.
He felt as if something had brushed his shoulder.
It was just a sticky breeze, but I couldn’t let go of the eerie feeling for a long time.
” are you okay?”
“Yeah… no. scared.”
She lowered her head slightly and her shoulders trembled.
“Can I hold your hand?”
” yes?”
“I think I’ll gain a little courage if I touch it
.”
Zeke held out his hand with an embarrassed expression.
“Because I am a warrior.”
Lakhe’s body temperature was unusually low. I don’t know if it’s natural since it’s a plant.
“It’s hot.”
“My hand?”
« O ” Hmm.
“Mr. Lakhe, your hands are cold.”
“By your standards, maybe so.”
Lake held Zeke’s hand and walked into the black forest.
It felt strangely awkward to walk alone with a woman holding hands in a quiet forest.
Unable to hold back, Zeke opened his mouth.
“It’s strange that Lakhe is afraid of the forest.”
“scared. “This forest… is full of malice.”
“It just looks like some strange grass and trees are growing there.”
“Zeke won’t know. I’ve been fighting forests like this for a long time. The place you call the Demon World. “It’s a forest living in the zero area.”
“Zero Area… Are you saying it’s the land of spirits?”
“A time when the whole world was polluted with mugwort. Only a handful of lives survived. I was really lucky. “Zero Area is a land with a radius of only 500 kilometers.”
“The Age of Gold, the Age of Silver and the Age of Chaos. “That legend?”
“that’s right. “I am a seed created in the golden age.”
“Have you been living that long?”
“In the state of a seed. “It didn’t take long for it to sprout
.”
“ah! I guess it’s possible that way too. Mr. Lakhe.”
“Plants are strong. It is also possible to survive as a seed for tens of thousands of years. “If survival is the standard for strength, plants are the strongest living things.”
“I don’t know much about such difficult topics.”
Zeke laughed.
Lakke stared at Zeke’s face.
“Being a hero is truly mysterious.”
” yes?”
“The fear really disappeared. “Just by holding your hand.”
“Haha, then I’m glad.”
“Someday, when you die, I want to take root in you.”
“It’s a compliment, right?”
“yes. “The best I can do for an animal.”
It was a bit creepy, but I had no choice but to take it as a compliment.
Zeke nodded several times while looking at Lakke, who was smiling awkwardly.
“But…
Lakhe had a hard time losing his luck.
“How long will you stay with Deus?”
“Excuse me?”
“no. “It must be pointless meddling.”
“It’s okay if it’s because it looks like Deus is bullying me. “He may speak harsh words, but he is by no means a bad person.”
Lakhe remained silent in response to Zeke’s words.
Demiurge 666 years old.
He is the 666th Demon King.
With his death, the 667th century will begin.
A hero with such a being. No matter how much I think about it…
At that moment, Lakhe pushed Zeke.
The action was so sudden that Zeke got his feet tangled and fell to the floor.
