Why I Quit Being the Demon King

Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 161

37. The Demon King returns to the human world (1)

Zeke did not take off his hood even in the restaurant.

Thanks to the mask covering his eyes and nose, he could not let down his guard even though no one could recognize his appearance.

“When was the last time you left the mountains?”

“Three years ago? “Was it four years ago?”

Swallowing his soup, Zeke

counted the days on his hands.

“It must have been four years ago. Because Signi had a bad cold and came down to get some medicine. “Lake’s medicine didn’t work, so Nezar asked me to get some medicine.”

“Then you don’t even know the news yet.”

“Which news?”

“It means that Leo Paladin has been decided.”

“really? “I heard that the Leo Zodiac Knight is special.”

Originally, it was decided that Zeke would take over that position

.

When the SIGNI incident happened, everything went awry.

“do not be surprised.”

“Is this surprising?”

“yes. Regin van Hollybitch. “It’s the name of the new Leo Paladin.”

“Don’t be surprised! That’s too much! I’ll tell you sooner. Signi would have been happy too!”

“There was no panic. “When I saw that now, it suddenly occurred to me.”

There was a shield in the direction where Katrun gestured.

The shield hung to decorate the wall of the tavern had a lion’s head embossed on it.

“It went really well. “It went really well.”

Zeke’s dream was to increase his family’s reputation.

It was a dream I had almost given up on now, but fortunately my youngest brother seemed to have taken over.

“It is said that the pureblood level exceeds 10%.”

“God favors our family too much. “All three of them are in the 10% range.”

Zeke sighed.

Destiny clearly exists. Because it is difficult to guess its form, it is only tormenting humans.

All three siblings have a pure blood level of over 10%!

He awakened the power of his aura while living with the Demon King, and Signy gained new life with the Demon King’s help.

The two siblings were dismissed for that crime, but the youngest brother rose to the position of Leo Paladin, the pinnacle of all paladins.

“But to become Leo Paladin at 15. Are you sure your skills are that good

? Or maybe I was just betting on the future.”

“I think it’s both.”

“I miss you.”

“Then you can go see it.”

Zeke smiled bitterly and shook his head.

“It will be a nuisance. Besides, I don’t have the honor to see the Zodiac Knights. Everyone was so good to me… but in the end, they betrayed me. “For now, I am satisfied that the Holly Beach family’s legacy continues.”

Katrun’s

heart became heavy as he saw that bitter expression.

The next day, Katran distributed the slaves’ money and ordered them to return to their homes.

I lightened my load and found a horse. Thanks to my lighter steps, I was able to arrive near Zorick’s Castle about five days later.

Humans are blessed.

From the Creator and no one else.

God is perfect. Omniscient and omnipotent.

Although he rarely intervenes directly, he sends angels to control everything.

All beings worship God.

Except for one person.

“That rotten bastard.”

“I won’t ask you to respect me, so don’t curse.”

Yulgeum looked at Deus, who was trembling, and said something.

“You bastard don’t even know who your father is.”

“therefore! Think carefully. There is food along the way. You don’t usually pick it up and eat it, right? But you ate it and got sick. Why is it God’s fault?”

“Then is it my fault?”

“of course. “Who wants to pick up something like a trace of the soul

left by an ancient demon ?”

“I ate it because I thought it would make me stronger.”

“But it’s like this.”

“You can win. Do you think you will lose to the spirit of the idiot who was beaten by the first hero?”

Deus was now spread out across the wasteland.

His arms and legs were out of his control. When I tried to walk, one of them leaned forward and the other leaned back.

It was not easy to even stand, let alone walk.

“Don’t fret. “First, I will take care of the inside of my body.”

Deus grunted at Yulgeum’s harsh words.

“I’ll eat you up!”

“Anyway, I really like eating.”

“Don’t disturb.”

“This is what they say after watching over me for 10 years. “I heard this is why demons are not harvested.”

Deus snorted and closed his eyes. I forced myself

to sit still and sank deep into

my body .

As I looked beyond the boundaries of the body and contemplated the soul, I began to see strange things.

When you connect the dots, there is a strange lump curled up at the end.

—What are you?

I asked the question inside me.

-memory.

-memory?

-Beginning and ending. Creation and destruction. And…

-I can’t understand what they’re talking about. Speak in human words.

—What are you? What is it… Are you saying you are Karma Vortex?

—You could call it that. Fragments of karma remain and the vortex of reincarnation

– I guess I learned a lot? The words are so complicated. I told you to say it easily.

—I am Karma Vortex.

—They say it’s like a remnant left behind by Lucifer, and it looks like it’s self-conscious.

—It is just a reaction to consciousness.

– huh?

—…I’m just answering because you’re talking to me

. Just like leaves blowing when the wind is strong, these are answers that come out naturally along the path created by karma.

-I don’t know about that, but you’re saying you’ll answer when I ask, right?

-Yes.

-Then first of all, why is my body like this?

-Your body’s sensory capacity has been exceeded. Because of this, even the reflex centers that maintain life are collapsing.

—Are you saying you swallowed something too big and are gurgling?

-Yes.

-Then shall I spit it out a little? Tell me the useless part. Spit it out to me.

-Overeating is just a metaphor. Since I am complete as one, there are no useless parts.

-Then I guess I’ll just have to stay there until it’s digested.

-Even though you say frivolous things, you still get the point right. That judgment is quite close to the truth.

—It took me 10 years to swallow it. I can understand if it takes that long to digest it again.

-Time is just the flow of cause and effect. Causation

itself cannot be.

—You’re saying it’s not something that can be resolved with the passage of time?

-Yes.

-Well, I have no choice but to wait. Then, shall we try digestion?

—What are you going to do?

-don’t worry. Because it won’t spew out stomach acid or anything. What should I call you? Karma Vortex is such a long name, right?

—Names are meaningless to me. It is just a scar left by the connection and karma between existence and the world.

-And you often call me ‘me’, right? If you have an ego, you can at least have a name. There are a lot of guys who don’t even have egos but have names.

-That’s persuasive. Then call me Lucifer. After all, I can’t think of anything other than that.

-Is he an angel who has lost his sacredness? Lucy Fur What are you?

—I am the scar on the world left by Lucifer’s business.

—Then you probably know Lucifer well.

-Yes.

-Then answer me. Why did he become a devil? Why did you create a clan called Demiurge?

-‘Why’ is not a meaningful question. It only happened because I wanted to. There is no special meaning to it.

-Because you wanted it… You said you were an angel? Well, if you want to do it, do it. So what is Mahon?

-This is the shared mindset of past demon kings.

-But it maintains one personality. In the end, that’s just one guy’s opinion.

– Yes. And not at the same time.

—Lucifer’s thoughts are needed. The knowledge and experience he has. I have to make it mine.

– Is this why you swallowed the Karma Vortex?

– that’s right. This is why I swallowed you, Lucifer.

– It won’t be easy. A container cannot hold more things.

– don’t worry. Because my bowl is as big as it can be.

Deus suddenly took a step forward.

I reached out to Lucifer, the installment of lumpy thoughts.

I swallowed the things inside at random. There were many parts I didn’t understand. I swallowed them whole, as if I had memorized them.

How much time has passed?

Deus opened his eyes.

Yulgeum and I made eye contact.

“You… are not Jin Geum-yong. What is your real identity?…

“No, I’m Jin Geum-yong. Wake.”

“that’s right. You are Jin Geum-yong. But there is no law that says one being must have only one name.”

“Why are you suddenly imitating a philosopher?”

“Owner of the crown. Lakhe called you by that name. The real name of the being who uses that name is Metatron. “One of the twelve great angels.”

Yulgeum looked at Deus with calm eyes.

“I am Jingeumyong Yulgeum.”

“It must be something from God.”

“that’s right. And until you take back that command, I am only a Jingeumyong yulgeum.”

“Lucifer

was also one of the twelve archangels, right? “An angel from the underworld… but now another being has taken over.”

“Do you really understand the karma vortex?”

“You can now move, right?”

“I’ve never been so surprised since I met you.”

“It’s okay to admire it more.”

Deus stood up.

I felt dizzy. I stumbled and stretched out my hand, but before I knew it, Yulgeum was there to support me.

Looking at her, Deus

opened his mouth again.

“There are still many things we don’t know, but at least we were able to see the memories that Lucifer had from 666 centuries ago. “I don’t know why he became the devil, but it probably had a lot to do with the disappointment of the angels during the destruction of the Golden Age and the Silver Age.”

“Because God was very angry.”

“The first destruction had a lot to do with Nezar.”

“that’s right. He is scary. Even though now it looks like all its wings and arms and legs have been torn off.”

“The one who caused the second destruction was… Lucifer, right?”

Yulgeum sighed briefly.

“He just pushed the button. There were already enough elements in place. “I think he took the punishment on behalf of everyone.”

“You were already Yulgeum back then.”

“That’s why I had no choice but to watch his deterioration.”

“It was corrupted. And then he became the Demon King and stayed in Hille. While all humans migrate to Jose.”

“So you got Mahon back?’

“It’s just a prototype, but that’s why it’s so pure.”

“Lucifer’s soul and Deus’ body. From now on, that will be you.”

“Don’t call me Lucifer’s soul. “I feel bad because I feel like I’ve lost my mind.”

“You’d better be careful. Because he was a powerful being. “It might really get taken away.”

“Like previous demon kings, right?”

Yulgeum closed his mouth at Deus’ words.

“Then let’s go back. I wonder what it will be like in 10 years. But

is the alliance between the demons and dragons still valid?”

“O”

“o.

“I’m glad. “I haven’t regained my stamina yet, but I didn’t think I would be able to withstand your attack.”

“I didn’t learn enough to hit the patient in the back, right?”

“It’s terrible. Who would have imagined that he would be the leader of angels?”

“There is no such thing as a captain. Just one of the oldest angels. Besides, he is now the god of dragons.”

When Deus arrived at Eidos, the first thing he did was call Alex.

The entire demon world was excited by the news of the Demon King’s return.

“My lord! Have you gained infinite power?”

With all his might, Alex asked as if he were shouting.

“Don’t overdo it, kid. What is infinite power? “It’s like the fault of the first Demon King.”

“My lord! The first Demon King Demiurge I was a great being who created the Demon World.”

“It hurts to keep talking, so what should I do? I was beaten to death by a human.”

“that!”

“Let’s put the bullshit aside, what’s the situation?”
