Chapter 179
Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 179
41. Meeting SIGNI (2)
Zeke said while holding Enma’s face.
“As promised, listen to what the winning side has to say. got it?”
The horse
kicks the ground with its feet and lets out a snort. Zeke released the rope that was tied to the reins.
However, even though Enma was free, he did not run away. Rather,
he hovered by Zeke’s side.
Some demons sneaked up from behind and tried to set up a net.
Zeke waved his hand at them.
“That won’t happen. Eidos will follow on its own.”
While the demons hesitated, the commander came to Zeke’s side.
After talking back and forth with Zeke, he made his men step back.
“I have no choice but to acknowledge your strength. I will share with you the credit for taming the horse. “The Lord
will surely reward you greatly.”
Zeke smiled and handed the reins to the commander.
Yeomma obediently walked along with the reins.
“It’s a prize… If you don’t get angry, everything will be fine.”
While the commander hesitated to think about the true meaning of Zeke’s words, Zeke returned to Lakhe’s side.
The distance from the border of Demon World Hille to Eidos was approximately 400 kilometers.
Hille was almost the same size as the human continent of Jose.
Zeke and Lakhe were treated like honored guests on the road to Eidos.
Because he already possessed the Demon King’s pass and because Zeke had shown divine power, he was no longer looked down upon as a slave.
We traveled comfortably in a large carriage and arrived at Eidos.
There, Zeke looked at the sky.
The Demon World was similar to daytime on the day of the solar eclipse.
It wasn’t so dark that you couldn’t see. However, it was a series of landscapes with low saturation as if covered in black mist.
Often, rain of fire poured down from the sky. An upside-down volcano spews fire.
Every time that happened, the residents of the demon world became panicked and hid themselves inside the shelter.
I saw that scene several times during my ten-day journey.
They say Neuekan is difficult to live in, but compared to the Demon World, it was heaven.
On the outskirts of Eidos, Zeke became separated from the demons.
Enma gave Zeke a look of regret
, and Zeke patted him on the forehead to say goodbye.
Zeke stood on the large road that runs north to south and looked straight north.
There was a huge tower there.
Dozens of spiers formed an irregular staircase, all leaning toward one tower.
That place is the Demon King’s Castle.
Zeke was about to become the first hero to set foot in the Demon King’s Castle.
“Shall we go?”
“huh. But… my pass won’t be of much help from now on.”
“Mr. Lakhe.”
“why?”
“Let’s leave here for a moment.”
” huh?”
“Because we can’t risk it.” Lakhe looked at Zeke blankly. “I heard Zeke is really kind. “I guess it’s because I actually get in the way, right?”
“What a distraction. The place where Mr. Lake will live in the distant future is not the human world, but down here. There is no need to become enemies with the demons
. “A mortal like me can live however he wants, but not Mr. Lakke, right?”
“I will do as you say. “It’s true that it won’t be of much help from here on out.”
“thank you. Please wait where you can see this tower. “I’ll get Signi.”
“Yes, warrior.”
Zeke left Lake’s side and walked towards the Demon Castle.
Jang Han, who had the head of a cow, was holding an axe.
The name of that race is Minotaur.
He was one of the representative beastmen.
He was about 2 meters and 50 centimeters tall, making him almost like a giant, and his muscles were like those of midsummer clouds.
Zeke was also quite tall, exceeding 180 centimeters, but in front of the Minotaur, he was just a dwarf.
“Stop. “What are you?”
The Minotaur sniffed. The charms hanging like decorations on the nose made a bell sound.
“It’s an unfamiliar smell. It resembles a demon race, but its skin is not red. Is it a dream?
But I can’t see the dream’s tail. Since your skin doesn’t burn, you’re not a flame spirit. “What on earth are you?”
Zeke looked straight at the Minotaur.
“My name is Sieg Van Jade. “I came to take my younger sister.”
“This is the devil’s palace. “Why are you looking for your sister here?”
The Minotaur’s expression, which had been sniffing, suddenly hardened.
“board? A board? Those are the letters attached to the hero’s name! “Why do demons use such ominous names?”
Zeke stretched out his hand forward. A red light flickered and instantly changed into the shape of a sword.
Almost immediately, blue light enveloped Zeke’s body. The light clothes changed into dark blue heavy armor in a short amount of time without anyone noticing.
“It’s the hero Sieg van Jade! My sister Signi is here. Open the path that leads to that child. Even if it is good to block, I will never forgive you!”
My spirit soared. The Minotaurs
lost their will to fight
due to the brilliance contained in the aura .
The gatekeeper was not weak because he was an elite horse soldier guarding the main gate of the Demon King’s Castle.
The Minotaur’s combat ability was among the top in the Demon World.
But now, it was Zeke who hit the main gate of the Demon Castle.
Can we put him in the category of an ordinary hero?
“Kaaaaak!”
The Minotaur let out a scream-like cheer.
You must attack the hero.
The warrior is the enemy. To the demons,
where can there be something as cursed as a hero?
The Minotaur desperately gave orders to his body.
Move forward!
Slash the ax down on that enemy.
But the body absolutely refused his command.
Is there any living thing in the world that willingly accepts suicide?
Reason and instinct.
The Minotaur’s eyes were bleeding as it withstood the two fiercely clashing forces
.
Then he suddenly vomited blood and collapsed on the floor.
The stress was so excessive that it seemed like a blood vessel had burst somewhere in my body.
Zeke defeated the Minotaur without lifting a hand.
As we passed the drawbridge in front of the castle, the castle gate closed like a bat’s wings.
When I looked up, I saw a large eye above the gate. It seemed to be a living castle gate.
However, if the castle gate had been blocked, Zeke
would not have even thought of attacking the demon world alone.
The shield was pushed forward and struck right in front of the castle gate.
It was one of the most basic shield techniques of Zeke’s family, Holy Jade.
Just because it was basic didn’t mean it wasn’t powerful. It was a shield technique optimized for hunting giants as it was faithful to the principle of using strength. A sound like
thunder
echoed throughout the heavens and the earth, and the gates were shattered and scattered.
The living gate
only blocked the warrior’s advance for about a second.
Here is an old woomun.
A shield that can never be pierced and a spear that can pierce anything.
What would happen if the two attacked each other?
Will the shield be breached?
Or will the window lose its reputation?
Zeke came there with a wise answer.
Grab that shield and spear and attack the devil’s castle.
The impenetrable shield and armor
made Zeke invincible.
Naga was a beastman whose claws were as sharp as a sword. It waved its snake’s tail like a wave and pounced to cut Zeke down.
But the nail was blocked by the shield and split in two.
The Naga army fought against Zeke repeatedly.
Nearly 100 mythical snakes shot arrows and slashed with their sword-like claws, but the damage only piled up.
Only after 40 naga were killed did the deputy commander order a retreat. Immediately after retreating, she
used magic to send a message to the monarch, Bina
the Emperor .
-He is not an enemy you can fight with your troops. The kingdom must join forces.
An incident of this magnitude occurred in the front yard of the Demon King’s Castle and there was no way the Demon Dukes would not have noticed.
The Demon King happened to be away.
Alex also left his seat to attend to the Demon King.
Several dukes had left to inspect the territory, and now
only two people remained in Eidos: Sloth Duke Seiton and Flesh Duke Shantrina.
They snorted when they heard that there was a hero causing a commotion at the entrance.
Said Seiton, stroking his goatee.
“It seems that there is someone who got lost in the passage created by mugwort ants and ended up in the demon world.”
“I guess so. They say there’s only one person. Still, it’s pretty strong. “I can’t believe the Naga Legion is in trouble.”
“I guess Bina, the construction worker, has always been lazy. However, there is no army stronger than the Naga Legion in this Demon King’s Castle, so
we will have to go and see for ourselves.” Shantrina nodded.
“Then I’ll go first.”
“I will follow you.”
Seiton kicked the wall with the sheep’s hoof and ran.
At the same time, the monk Shantrina jumped through space.
It was a completely different technology from warp. She had the ability to pursue the source consciousness of all existence.
It was a unique technique possessed by the dream demon that was said to steal men’s blood.
Because it was a short distance, there wasn’t much of a difference between Seiton’s running
and Shantrina’s teleportation.
Almost at the same time, the two blocked Zeke’s path.
The moment she saw him, Shantrina’s expression hardened.
But Seyton didn’t seem to notice.
He raised the scythe with a proud expression and aimed it at Zeke.
“Hero, warrior! You really came this far with that small body. “I salute that ability!”
“You are also a demon.”
“Yes. “Na Taegong (觸念公) Seiton, the lord of devils and fiends, is this body.”
“Sloth? “Then it must be one of the Seven Dukes of the Demon World!”
“Yes. And this one…
Shantrina took a step forward.
“My name is Shant Rina. “You don’t know my face, but I remember your body odor.”
Zeke saw a woman who said she knew him. Any man
would give all his money
for her .
She was a woman with charm that was not enough to simply describe her as beautiful.
“Zeke, you are the ‘Ender.’”
Seiton’s expression, which had been full of energy, crumpled.
“The Ender Zeke? “Are you talking about the hero who defeated the demon king… and survived?”
“Ziek van Jade. “I am that hero.” Shantrina slowly untied the rose vine whip from her waist.
“You invaded the demon world all by yourself
. Was he such a reckless man? “I like it so much that I get wet, but I’m not going to hand it over to you, right?”
“What do you mean?”
“Sympathy.”
Zeke smiled bitterly.
“I refuse.”
“I will have the body I want, even if it means killing me.”
“I don’t have time to joke around with you. “Where is Signy?”
“It looks like you came looking for her as expected.”
” that’s right.”
“That’s reckless. Even if you save them, what
will you do? Are you going to fight against the entire demon world?”
“no. “I’m going to negotiate with Deus.”
“You are Deus?”
“I need to know why Signi was brought here. If it was done with bad intentions, we will fight. Even if the opponent is the entire Demon World.”
“That’s reckless. Do you think you can win?”
“A warrior doesn’t fight because he can win. “We fight because it’s right.”
“You are an apostle of justice. If you are… “I guess we have no choice but to be honest here.”
Shantrina glanced at Seiton. Seiton was stroking the goat’s beard and looking slightly distracted.
