Chapter 264 – Declaration of War
[Residents and tourists, evacuate to the bunker immediately.]
The evacuation announcement was repeated in several languages as it is a tourist destination.
Tourists and residents soon moved and disappeared in perfect order, and the streets became very quiet as a result.
That’s all the infrastructure that Dr. Me and I laid out… Suddenly, I’m getting annoyed.
As I boarded a fighter jet and headed to Hawaii, I checked the situation there through the monitor.
Oh oh oh…
The weather in Hawaii, which was already depressing because of the rainy season, is becoming more cloudy.
Almost to the point of turning black. The streetlights automatically turn on and create a cool atmosphere.
Then it started to rain.
It was also a very heavy rain.
‘Hmm…’
It’s a noisy portal without my permission…
Even the size is huge.
It’s like declaring war in the demon realm.
Looking at the explorer’s gauge, it stopped at 91 percent.
It meant that monsters that were just up to S rank would appear.
If it’s an S-class monster accompanied by a thunderstorm…
‘It’s Vinero.’
Wow-!
The mouth of the raindrops was opened, and a handsome man wearing black chainmail and holding a huge bow appeared from inside.
The guy, who looked around him with a relaxed expression, stiffened his face and aimed his bow as light crimson and gold radiance quickly approached from the distant air.
What a profit…
From the protests, there was a strange sound like the screams of spirits.
By the time Sylvia and Adele came close, Binet deflected the protest.
Fuhuaak-!
Then, a roar that shook the surroundings spread, and a straight black line appeared in the center of the monitor.
At the same time, a tremendous shockwave was released, smashing all objects in its path.
Whoa-!
Soon the sound of balloons popping came from the speakers.
The sound was so loud that I was worried for a moment…
I was relieved to see a light red glow with a golden aura cutting through the black aura.
Adele’s divine power seemed to have defended her.
-Hmm!?
A startled exclamation escaped Binet’s mouth.
That was his last dying word.
Slow-! Sudden!
Sylvia, who approached Binet with terrifying speed, mangled her whole body, tied her feet, and killed her body with Adele’s punch that pierced her torso.
It’s a monster that only shoots arrows from afar, so it’s very vulnerable to close combat.
If it was a close-range monster, it would have been able to take the time, but it was a pity.
Anyway, Sylvia and Adele’s strength is amazing.
No matter how far away a monster is, I didn’t expect her to end it so quickly…
When two people come together, what kind of synergy effect do they create? It’s ridiculous.
I want to make it mine soon. Power is so coveted
-I did it, Mr. Jihyeok. How was it?
Adele’s reminded voice echoed inside the fighter jet.
After hearing her report, I replied.
“I couldn’t see it well because it was fast, but it seemed that Mr. Sylvia was given her divine power. Thanks to that, the arrow was blocked, right?”
– You are correct.
“It was great. Just come back.”
-Yes…? What about the body?
“I’m on my way to retrieve it now, so go back to Uijeongbu and rest.”
-Can’t I stay with you? Another portal may appear.
“If there is any sign of that, the device will make a sound. Then come help.”
-Ummm… Okay.
After sending the two back, I arrived in Hawaii.
After leaving only Binet’s head, the rest were incinerated and headed to Antarctica without anyone noticing.
**
“Great…”
With a pained moan, Binet opened her eyes.
The guy who was looking around to figure out the situation was stunned for a moment, as if he couldn’t believe that he had been hit so quickly.
Then, she realized that her whole body was bound.
The one whose body was replaced with that of a skinny human.
“This…! This…!”
Binet frowned,
“Demon King! Mr. Tyrat! You are my master!”
In the common language of Erandel, the room started screaming to leave.
I stood up from my seat while watching the scene with Sehwa, Yuria, Marcella, and the doctor outside.
Then, Yuria stood up behind me.
It’s meant to be an escort in preparation for the unexpected.
I smiled at her and opened the hard alloy door without her hesitation.
Chunk!
The door opens and closes left and right with a loud sound.
As the red light leaked into the place where there was no light, Binet frowned at her for a moment.
However, from the moment she saw my face, the moment she saw Yuria aiming her bowstring, she lowered her head with a servile expression.
“It is an honor to have an audience with Okche, Demon King! Please forgive me for not being able to properly greet you because I am bound!”
I closed the door without saying a word and walked closer to him.
After that, he squatted down in front of the guy whose arms and legs were chained and couldn’t move, making eye contact with him.
“You are struggling to live. Talk about candy-coated words.”
At my low words, Binet’s face was wet with fear.
Since it’s a humanoid monster, emotions are visible in the eyes, so it’s easy to bond.
First of all, this guy is responding to my demonic energy, but…
“Eh, Maou-nim…! I am the servant who faithfully served the Demon King…! How can you attach a human body to me like that!”
Seeing you make such off-topic remarks, it’s safe to assume that you’re out of influence.
“If you don’t want to suffer for aeons of time, get rid of flattery.”
“…..”
“Perhaps it’s because it’s a humanoid monster, so the fusion went really well.”
“A humanoid monster… Why do you think of humans as the standard?”
There’s nothing to refute about this. It is my mistake.
Admit it.
“Are you okay?”
“I feel a strange sensation from my neck. It’s painful! Please set me free!”
Raising the corner of my mouth, I moved closer to Binet.
Then, Yuria pulled the string of her bow to its maximum.
The momentum to shoot right away. Binet took her timidity away.
I raised one corner of my mouth at that guy and said.
“If you give an honest answer to the question, I will restore your body again. Is that all? Originally, the situation would have been punishable by death, but I will make allowances for it.”
“…..”
“It means you will forgive me.”
Binet, whose eyes widened at the word forgiveness, nodded her head frantically.
I asked with a clenched tongue as I looked at the grotesquely creaking neck.
“Did Malphas send you?”
I didn’t ask who sent it, but I specified the target.
To that extent, I was suspicious of Malphas.
And that prediction was right.
It was because Binet, who was startled, confessed obediently.
“… That’s right… Malphas sent…”
“What did you say when you sent it?”
“I, tell me a message…”
“It’s a message… Arrogance…”
“…..”
“Tell me what he said to you without forgetting a word.”
At those words, Binet’s eyes shook like an earthquake.
He even looked at Yuria’s eyes.
Malpas, this fuck, said challenging. I can tell just by looking at it.
I calmed down my rising anger and continued.
“There is absolutely no need to dramatize. Please speak comfortably.”
Did he gain courage from his fairly gentle tone?
Binet opened her mouth cautiously.
“Eh, there is no place for you who neglected demonic spirits and neglected the Demon Realm… Don’t set foot in it again… I said it was my last courtesy to the demon king…”
Before Binet could even finish her words, an enraged Yuria let go of her protest.
Wedge-! Fuck!
An arrow that pierced the wall next to his face at once.
The whole face of her was covered with sobbing.
“Ughhh…! I’m sorry…!”
I raised her hand to dissuade YuRia, then grabbed Binet by the chin and lifted it up.
“The Balrog must have betrayed you too, right?”
“Bah, not Mr. Balrog…!”
No? The people I sent turned to ashes in the Balrog’s hellfire?
First of all, I don’t think you’re telling lies.
Binet is still affected by my demonic energy, and he had no intention of lying in a situation like this.
If so, Malphas must have tricked the Balrog with some cunning trick.
The Balrog must have sensed my demonic energy from his followers, but since he is a simple guy, he must have been tricked by Malpas who spread many lies.
I said, taking out a notebook from my pocket.
“It’s raining.”
“Yes…! Yes! Demon King!”
“Just name the monsters who betrayed me. Then you will be able to return.”
“If this fact is known to the Demon Realm, I will…”
“Are you afraid to be known when the owner of the Demon Realm is right in front of you? My influence has diminished a lot.”
“I didn’t mean that…”
“The names of the traitors.”
“Ma, Malphas, 4 Knights, Dantalion, Pur…”
As I was writing down my name, I turned on a blank laugh.
All A grade or higher. S rank is also close to half.
“Hey, that’s it…! Please forgive me…!”
The number of monsters that came out of Binet’s mouth was over twenty.
If we assume that there are people Binet doesn’t know, the number will be higher.
In particular, the betrayal of the 4th knight was painful. If these chews are articles, they will keep their loyalty like an article …
No matter how much I’ve been neglecting these days, are you trying to stab me in the back?
All sentenced to death. There will never be mercy.
Shaking my head, I asked again.
“What is the current situation in the Demon Realm?”
“It is divided into two factions. Those who follow Malphas, and those who are loyal to the Demon King…”
Ohh… There are also monsters who understand my grandiose will.
Those guys will take care of you for the rest of your life.
Dealing with the traitors and surrendering their old castle is also a way.
“Who is in charge of the latter part?”
“That I don’t know either. Our side has the upper hand and is being eliminated one after another… Ugh!”
Binet, who made the mistake of saying, “The situation on our side,” Swallowed his breath.
I burst into laughter and calmed him down with a soft voice.
“Don’t be anxious. Didn’t he say he came to deliver a message? It proves that you are attached to Malphas.”
“I am the Demon King’s…”
I cut him off with a light slap on Binet’s cheek and straightened my knees.
“Yuri.”
“Yes, Master.”
“Pick off this bastard’s head, clean it well, put it in the hand of one of your family members, and send it to the demon realm.”
At those words, Binet’s eyes doubled in size.
“Eh, Demon King! They say that if you answer the question well, you will be forgiven…!”
“A guy who stabs you once will hit you twice. I should leave only trustworthy people next to me.”
“Didn’t you say you could go back to the Demon Realm…!”
“When did I say I would return you alive?”
“Have mercy…! Have mercy! I…”
“Vine, let me tell you a fact. Do you know why you, a high-ranking monster, were only sent to Earth as a messenger?”
“…?”
“I sent you because Malphas also didn’t like your jaunty appearance. As a scapegoat.”
Binet’s eyes widened.
“…..”
“I guess you didn’t know. You guys are funny too. It’s not uncommon for an ignorant guy to have this kind of thinness… But you’re in luck anyway. Those who betrayed me tried to make me suffer by making me neither die nor live, but I will send you as kindly as possible.”
“Mind…”
Poo-!
Bi-ne was hit by an arrow in the middle of her neck while trying to say something.
As his body limp, dark red liquid leaked from his neck, mouth, nose and eyes.
The red blood of the fused human mixed with the black blood of Binet.
I turned around after looking at Binet’s corpse with indifferent eyes.
After that, he stroked Yuria’s white jawline once.
“Wash well and send only the neck. Drain all the blood.”
“Why do you have to drain all the blood?”
“I am also sending a message. Wash your neck and wait.”
The Demon World was eaten. However, the monsters that serve me remain.
And just knowing Malphas’s treachery for sure yielded a great harvest.
‘A bastard…’
Teeth are grinding
To challenge it head-on, is it because I ate enough demons?
I commend you for that courage.
