Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 155

36. Encountering a new order (1)

“The name of this era is the era of chaos.”

“It’s just a pun.”

Yulgeum held out his hand. At that moment, Scottiel’s body bounced off.

I rolled around the wasteland several times. I struggled to keep my balance, but the opponent’s strength was too strong.

I raised my head, covered in blood.

why!

He looked up at Yulgeum with aggrieved eyes.

“It was a great god who named it the Age of Chaos. “But is it a pun?”

“I… didn’t mean that.”

“Have you not even learned how to speak? “Your words are particularly misleading to me.”

“That’s because you…

“Shh.”

“jeon!”

“Get into the habit of thinking and speaking thoroughly. “Unless you want to get hit again.”

“Yulgeum, I am Michael’s angel.”

“Do you think I will be scared if you mention Michael’s name?”

“I didn’t mean it that way.”

“I guess that’s what it means. Look into your true heart. You do not understand the true meaning of the name of the Age of Confusion, and you called my words a play on words. Before I thought deeply about the meaning of the words Jingeumyong, I called the place a lie. No, that is not a misunderstanding; it is your true intention. Scottiel.”

“Yes, Yulgeum.”

“My being here is neither a joke nor a lie. You stay there. By any chance, don’t even think about crossing my sword. That’s something even Michael shouldn’t do. Go back and tell it. The devil said he would entrust his life to me. “I must stay here until he returns.”

“I really don’t know. your will. Why do you want to associate with such a wretched person?”

“Both the lame and the blind are children of the Lord.”

“They are not corrupted.”

“The most corrupt thing is humans. No one can be more evil than them. But God is kind enough to always forgive them.”

“I don’t know. Will God forgive the devils?”

“Scatiel.”

” yes.”

“Everything that exists in the world has already been forgiven.”

The moment Scottiel heard Yulgeum’s words, he felt like he had been punched.

If you deny that statement, God’s omnipotence collapses.

So does this mean that the existence of the devil is also God’s will?

Why do these dirty seeds exist?

“Go back.”

Scottiel bowed and greeted Yulgeum.

A day or two.

One week and two weeks.

And then one month and two months.

Beyond that, a year or two.

When Deus reappeared, Yulgeum stretched after a long yawn

.

I counted the days.

“Isn’t 10 years a bit long?”

Deus limped with one of his shredded wings attached to the back of his armpit.

How many steps did you walk? He just hit his head on the ground.

The wings disappeared like an illusion and seeped into his body.

Yulgeum approached him and massaged his wounds.

The scars on my body disappeared like a lie.

“May God forgive you too.”

Yulgeum memorized a short prayer.

Deus, who was stunned as if he heard her voice, smiles.

“Are you asking me to name the most hellish experience of my life? Of course it was Horsetail Woods’ crusade.”

The only eye of the A-class hero Jefferson flashed white.

Although he was half-blood, his skills were outstanding and he gained quite a reputation in Isolta.

Isolta

was a country to the northwest of Seonghwangcheong.

It is a country located at the head of the horse-shaped continent of Jose, beyond the Jose Pine Mountains, so its culture is slightly different from the countries to the south.

The boy named Katran, who was by Jefferson’s side, was a fourth-generation warrior.

I am seventeen this year. His grade was G, and he was a promising member of the Hollygum family.

“They say the devil has appeared?”

Katran looked at Jefferson with sparkling eyes.

“that’s right. We,

50,000 soldiers, led by the Zodiac Knight, gathered in Horsetail Woods to fight against the Demon King’s army. But surprisingly, a small number of demon lords and one million horse soldiers were camped there in advance. “It was a truly gruesome fight.”

“One million?”

“It might be more than that. Because lowly ghosts are not even included in the number!”

Jefferson said with a shrug.

“The enemy was strong. But we were brave. “Because we had been fighting non-stop for several days, we had to divide the unit into three and eat together.”

“Did one unit eat while the two units were fighting?”

“yes! The fight continued for ten full days and half of us were killed. “That’s when this eye injury occurred.”

Katran looked into Jefferson’s eyes. A wound that looked like an earthworm crawling across it stretched from his forehead to his chin.

“Three Zodiac Knights were killed in action, so what more can I say?”

“There were 9 people back then, right?”

“okay. “I heard that they finally

decided on the 9th Zodiac Knight not long ago.”

“You mean the Zodiac Knight of Leo?”

“that’s right. Leo is the captain of the Zodiac Knights. Originally, he was going to become a paladin of the Lion throne, but…

Jefferson trailed off.

I raised my only eye and looked at the flag.

The unit’s flag was a gold cross. It is a pattern that only Seonghwangcheong can use.

“Regin van Holywitsch. A promising stock with a pureblood rating of 10.00

! “Even though he is two years younger than me, he is said to be capable of overpowering other Zodiac Knights.”

“I don’t know his skills, but… the Black Dragon’s power was truly amazing.”

“Black hero Zeke! “You mean our goal, right?”

“It’s reckless. “If he has the strength he had back then… this is not an opponent that a unit of this size can handle.”

“I’m not going there to fight. “Our job is to persuade him through dialogue.”

“I wonder if I can convince you! He is

a warrior who fought against the devil. In terms of status, it’s comparable to being the last man standing. “It cannot be said too hastily because the heroes of Generation Zero are still children around the age of ten, but it will not be easy for a hero to surpass them to be born.”

“It seems like the Seonghwangcheong office really wants him to come back.”

“It’s only like that on the surface. “If you really want it, you should start by forgiving the witch’s sins.”

“You guys there.” Not far from

the two warriors with their horses’ heads side by

side, a middle-aged man stopped talking.

He appeared to be in his mid-40s and was dressed as a priest.

His name is Bishop Jordan. He was a diplomatic ambassador dispatched by the Seonghwangcheong to Neuekan.

“From what I hear, you seem to be speaking too carelessly. Don’t speak highly of him like a black hero or anything. They are nothing but immoral people who turned their backs on the Holy Emperor. “They had so much faith in their own strength that they abandoned His Holiness’ favor and ran away into the mountains.”

While the two warriors were looking at each other with sad expressions, Bishop Jordan’s story continued.

“Why did they hide in Neuekan, the site of the old castle hall? “Don’t you want to say that you are in the same position as His Holiness Seonghwang?”

“He wasn’t that arrogant.”

Bishop Jordan shook his head in response to Jefferson’s protest.

“How can we know who he is by just catching a glimpse of him on the battlefield? The witch is now growing a magic sword on her back.

The day that demon sword awakens, this world will turn into hell. “It is the role of our Seonghwangcheong Office to prevent such things from happening.”

For ten years, the witch carried the magic sword on her back.

As she grew taller, the length and width of the magic sword grew little by little.

That ominous appearance was enough to make even the allies feel fear.

A woman with a magic sword.

What Seonghwangcheong was really afraid of was SIGNI, not Zeke.

“If anything, don’t have a weak heart

. Over the past 10 years, thousands of people have been tricked into Neuekan by witches. What do you think happened to them? “Isn’t it obvious that it was used as a sacrifice by a witch to create a sword?”

“Are you that scared? “A witch?”

“If it’s not scary, what do you think is the reason for organizing such a large-scale expedition? “There are already not enough people because of the mugwort monsters.”

Jortain stared down the mountain road that continued tirelessly. The justification was to send an envoy, but they even

had in mind

the possibility of killing the witch if they found an opening .

20 warriors, 100 knights and wizards, and up to 1,000 soldiers.

It had enough military power to occupy a small castle.

Still, I couldn’t rest assured.

This is an abandoned land infested with mugwort monsters.

“It’s a monster again!”

The knight in the lead shouted.

The trumpet sounded and tension filled the unit.

The two warriors, Jefferson and Katran,

drove their horses and headed to the lead.

The front is already full of loons. The bodies that had been crushed by the giant gorilla’s wildly swinging fists formed a mountain.

It was the third monster I encountered while climbing the mountain.

The destructive power of contaminated gorillas was beyond imagination.

Spearmen were no match for them at all.

Even holding out the tip of a spear in front of a huge black monster running wild was difficult.

The situation was no better for the warriors

.

Because the soldiers could not hold out at all, there was not enough time for the warriors to prepare.

The situation would be a little better if someone took the initiative to stop the contaminated gorilla, but there weren’t many warriors who could take on the monster on their own.

Katrun took out his sword and shield and jumped off his horse.

“This is Katrun, the hero of Holy Sword! “The illusory shield that protects the enemy is in my hand, so my allies can rest assured!”

Although he was young, he was a G-class hero.

The moment he came to the front, the atmosphere changed 180 degrees.

The gorilla’s huge fist stopped on the shield. Although Katran’s body was pushed two meters, her posture did not collapse.

I ran forward again with my shield in front of me.

The gorilla’s two fists pounded the cart run from side to side. However, the defense line was maintained until the end.

Meanwhile, knights, warriors, wizards, and slave soldiers attacked the gorilla.

As the momentum gained momentum, the soldiers’ attacks

became sharper. The wounds on the contaminated gorilla’s body increased.

Even though it was bleeding, the gorilla was desperate.

Katrun could not let go of his tension even for a moment. Because I was exhausted, I started to have trouble breathing.

Then, at some point, the gorilla’s attack lost strength.

Katran sighed.

“We defeated the mugwort monster!”

The soldiers shouted at his declaration.

But is it too early to raise a glass?

Five or six shadows fell from the sky.

Human-looking monsters with black fur all over their bodies.

Six more contaminated gorillas exceeding 3 meters in height were revealed.

About 10% of the unit’s members were lost in just one attack.

It was no wonder that the expedition lost its will to fight the moment the six appeared.

Bishop Jordan shouted.

“Someone, try to stop those monsters

! Lord Katran! “Didn’t you say you were a G-class hero?”

But even that Katran was so frozen that he couldn’t open his mouth.

The evaluation of the mugwort monsters was still in progress.

It was not simple to classify which ones should be placed in class D or G, or in lower classes such as ABCF.

Another problem was that the mugwort monsters were so powerful. Except for single individuals of types that form colonies like insects, there were almost no people below Class A.

Most of them were G-level or higher, and there were a few D-level or higher.

This contaminated gorilla was also a G-class monster ranked high.

There were six of them gathered together, so the expedition team had no way to deal with them.
