Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 133

31. Overwhelmed by the Demon King ⑴

“Can’t Lake talk to plants?”

“yes. you can do it.”

“Then how about asking the plants in the demon world?”

“Conversation with the Forest of Deception?”

“yes.”

“They are demons.”

” i know.”

“But conversation?”

“Why not?”

“Zike… he’s a hero.”

“That’s right.”

“Didn’t the hero hate the demons?”

“That is correct. But there’s no law that says you can’t say a word to someone you hate.”

Lakhe looked at Zeke’s gentle eyes for a long time.

“The enemy is the enemy.”

“As long as they are against us, they are enemies. But if we talk about it, we might come to a different conclusion, right?”

Lakhe sighed briefly.

“It probably won’t work.”

“But give it a try.”

“Instead…

“Yes’?”

“Hold my hand tightly. “It takes courage to talk to the forest of delusion.”

“all right. “Anytime is that much.”

Lakke looked at Zeke again.

Without knowing what was happening, she was swept to the ground by a volcanic eruption.

And then I met Deus by chance.

He signed a contract to become a slave on the condition that he help him return to his homeland.

However, after living on earth for several months, the sense of urgency to return has diminished significantly.

I thought it would be more fun to stay here with Zeke.

Thinking about that, my cheeks blushed. A small flower blossomed on the top of my head.

“Your face is red.”

“I wasn’t thinking about dirty things like moisture

.”

“yes?”

Lakhe walked with long strides and approached the border.

Her hair woke like a snake and touched the edge of the forest.

At that moment, hundreds of thorns sprouted from the wall.

Even with a threatening gesture like a forest of swords, Lakke showed no reaction.

Zeke also held back and did not take a step back, thinking that he could not ruin Lakke’s work.

Lakhe’s body rapidly turned into a plant.

The arms turned into branches, the legs turned into roots, and the head turned into a tall flower stem, with the clothes only hanging in the middle.

Her splendidly stretched out body itself became a rose vine and wrapped itself around her.

Zeke held onto one of her stems tightly.

How much time has passed?

Lakhe returned to human form again.

“I found it.”

“Did the conversation go well?”

“huh. He said he would show me the way in exchange for giving up my expanded territory. It’s just as I thought, Zeke. “Why have I never thought of talking to them until now?”

“Maybe it’s because the war isn’t over. “Where are the others now?” “They don’t seem to know Deus-sama’s location, and Yulgeum-nim and the rest of the party

are said

to be advancing straight from the southern coast to Mt. Aga Iatta .”

“Where are we?”

“It’s due west of Mount Agaiatta.”

“That means… the fastest way would be to go to Mount Agaiatta.”

“But it’s dangerous. That place is now the Demon King’s stronghold.”

“there’s nothing we can do. “Aim for the south side of Mount Agaiatta and go as fast as possible.”

Zeke said this and looked around.

The forest covered the sky,

making it impossible to distinguish between north, south, east and west.

“I spent an hour because I was with Lakhe. “Please give me directions.”

Lakhe nodded and walked away.

The number of warriors arriving at the coast gradually increased to well over 1,000.

The number of Pure Blood warriors alone was 1,000.

The total number of warrior families was about 1,000, so each family sent one person. Including

Harp, the warrior’s companions, and the slave army, a

huge army approaching 50,000 arrived one after another to attack the demon king’s army.

No matter how excellent the regenerative ability of the Forest of Deception was, it could not withstand an army of 50,000.

A wide path gradually appeared in the forest as they marched violently, pulling out roots, burning them, and setting fire to the land itself.

Yulgeum quietly looked at the forest being destroyed by humans.

Is that order? Is it disorder?

“Are you in a bad mood?”

Yulgeum laughed at SIGNI’s cautious question.

“no.”

“What a relief. “You’re frowning.”

“I have a lot to think about. how about you?”

“Actually, me too.”

Signy also laughed. It was an expression very similar to Yulgeum’s smile.

“You received Michael’s mission?”

“yes.”

“What… mission?”

“It was an order to protect the warrior as a saint

.”

“So you got a staff instead of a shield?”

The Rodemwood Staff of Destruction was always by Signi’s side.

“I’m not strong enough to fight alongside knights.”

“Most saints hold a staff, not a sword. But just because you hold a staff doesn’t mean you’re inferior to a warrior with a shield and sword. “Because there is a job that suits each person’s characteristics.”

” i know.”

“Are you familiar with magic?”

“Not yet. So Michael taught me directly.”

“You have received the protection of an angel.”

“yes. “It’s really amazing… the spell was engraved directly in my head.”

“Because a being has that level of power.”

“Yulgeum… why are you with him?”

“that? “Who are you talking about?”

“It’s Deus.”

“Did you find out? “His identity.”

“Michael gave an oracle.”

“Who else knows?”

“Cadenza and Oridon obtained the oracle directly.”

Yulgeum looked at the two Holy Knights leading the army in front.

“Then the demon king this army is trying to subdue

is… “Deus.”

“That’s a bit strange. We also came here after hearing the rumor that the devil had descended. “That means someone came in between.”

“Are you saying there are two demon lords?” Signi tilted his head. Seeing

a 10-year-old girl

discussing the devil with a serious expression made Yul Geum suddenly laugh.

“Let’s stop talking about this. “The truth will come out soon.”

“yes.”

“I asked why you were with him?”

” yes.”

“That’s because it’s that dangerous. “It’s for surveillance.”

“That was a stupid question. “Of course you will.”

“But that’s not necessarily the reason.”

Yulgeum responded with a smile to the young saint who looked up at her.

The truth was blurred in the smiles.

When they passed the tent called the Forest of Deception and arrived at the plain where Mount Agaiatta was visible in the distance, the warriors gathered under the banner of the Holy Emperor faced fear for the first time.

The mountain was burning.

But what the fire was burning was not shrubbery or fallen leaves.

Fire was burning the world.

The screams turned into smoke, turning the sky black

and blocking out the sun.

In the area covered by the black smoke, even the clear valley water took on a gray color.

And beyond the river crossing the plain, the army of the Demon World was seen.

Goblins, Minotaurs, Hydras, and Gorgons formed a line and surrounded Agaiatta.

When we cut down the forest of delusion with a sharp sword, no one doubted our victory.

But who can promise victory in the face of such a powerful army?

More than 10 D-class warriors and the Zodiac Knights, the strongest on the continent, were all gathered.

Nevertheless, the enemy army was so strong that they had no choice but to be afraid.

After crossing the forest of delusion, the warrior army arrived one after another on the plain in front of the forest.

A unit of a thousand men on warhorses advanced to the forefront of the faltering human army.

“Holy Jinco Holy Maple Holy Illan Tooth! “The three warrior families of the northwest will take the lead!”

The three families were

not simply soldiers on horseback.

They were the Octagonal Horse Knights, an elite cavalry unit of the Zolta Kingdom located in the northwest of the Joseon continent.

As soon as they received the oracle, they marched for a month to the Horsetail Peninsula, almost on the opposite side of the continent.

Isolta’s fearless cavalry unit always achieved remarkable results in the war against the demon world every 100 years.

Leading them were the fourth generation warriors of the family representing Isolta.

Holy Jinko and Holy Maple Hollylan Tooth

were a family of warriors representing this Zolta, always going back and forth between D-class and G-class.

As Isolta’s cavalry advanced towards the demon army, a unit came forward from the other side as well.

To mounted troops, to mounted troops.

About 500 goblins riding wolves tried to deal with the mounted troops by twirling their bolas over their heads.

The two units used their unique mobility to travel far away and try to exploit each other’s weaknesses.

It’s like two snakes biting their tails.

Another unit that could not wait

rushed out among the humans.

It was a group of wizards from Delux, a kingdom in the southwestern region.

To the south of Deluxe was the entrance to the Demon World. When demons invaded the human world, Delux was the place that suffered the most damage.

Therefore, the national power was weak. No matter how much you cultivate it, it resets once every 100 years.

However, the tenacity of the people living there was the best on the continent.

The pride of being the forefront of defense against demons made them strong.

The Goblin Wolf Riders were scattered in confusion due to the wizards’ long-distance bombardment.

The one who came out to save the same demons from danger was the half-human, half-beast snake Naga.

Those monsters had a special resistance to magic. Their snake-like hair was the source of their magical power.

Isolta’s cavalry units turned Naga into an attack target. But it wasn’t easy.

The Minotaurs, small-headed monsters whose size was close to that of a giant,

served as the Naga’s shield.

The fight grew in scale.

It got to the point where the unit’s perimeter could no longer be maintained as the world became entangled with the world.

It was always the warriors who were at the forefront of the battlefield.

Protect your comrades with a strong shield.

The simplest yet most dangerous was the battle of the warriors.

Yulgeum stayed by Signi’s side. Deus’ servants, Skatul and Sadimus, also

protected

Signi along with Yulgeum .

Sitting on a horse he couldn’t ride well, Signy faced the terrible war between humans and demons.

“If it’s painful, you don’t have to look.”

Signi shook her head at Yulgeum’s words.

“It’s a holy war. “How can following God’s word be painful?”

“I guess… I guess so.”

“Yulgeum. Please pray together. “So that we win.”

“It’s easy to pray, but

will God really listen?”

“We will win. “Because so many warriors are shedding blood.”

At that time, Sadimus, who had been silent, opened his mouth.

“If this continues, we will be annihilated.”

He was a warrior’s companion.

He was captured by the Demon Book and became an evil being called Lich, but he originally defeated the Demon King with a warrior 1,000 years ago.

“If there really is a demon lord among them, this side won’t even be able to block the demon lord’s blow.”

The fairy Atisha responded to his words.

“There is a devil. Because I saw it with my own eyes. If he, engulfed in blue flames, is not the Demon Lord, what should we call him? “The devil who destroyed the earth with a single blow and turned this land into an island!”

“Then you will only lose. We do not have a final hero. Even with Zeke’s abilities, you can’t be the last one standing.”

Yulgeum said.

“I can’t be certain. Above all,

there is no guarantee that the Demon King is in perfect condition. The reason they keep the pattern of once every 100 years is because it takes at least that much time to complete the Demon King.”

After pausing for a moment, she opens her mouth again.

“The question is, what is that thing crouching over there?
