Chapter 129 – The North (13)

Nothing is as traumatic for a slave as walking through a narrow passage. Just as every child pushes the womb to find a new life, we would pass through a narrow hallway without a window and get a new name again. Whether at the slave market held in the middle of the Colosseum or the slave market held underground, we always passed through a narrow and dark waiting room to get a new name.

No. 132. No. 34. No. 278. No. 36. No. 17. No. 23. No. 37. Evan.

Evan. Until now, my name was Evan. What do you call me, this dirty lunatic? How the hell could I see an opportunity and run away? I can run away anytime by myself. But there was no point in running away, abandoning Alice and Lorena.

The shackles of a family not befitting a devil were pushing me into the fucking jaws. A road where you can’t back down even after spitting out a series of fucking sounds. We had to run away together somehow, but I didn’t know how to take advantage of that opportunity.

The freedom of movement now given to me and my women was only granted because I came out cooperatively. It wouldn’t be strange if he cut off Alice and Lorena’s limbs the moment they made a mistake in their first escape.

Be careful. I had to aim for an opportunity while listening to the story while giving a proper match. He said he was a man-hater, he didn’t say he was a demon-hater. Speaking as a demon, he might be able to make a little bit of a gap.

The smell of alcohol spread as we got closer. Laughter and music. And a deep voice.

Haha!”

The man’s voice was heard. In front of the narrow passage in the barracks, a large beast guarded the passage. He was looking down at me from a crooked position, looking around me.

“Did you come alone? Why did you come alone?”

As soon as I saw him, I clicked his tongue. He smelled like demons, and he felt so strong that I couldn’t guarantee victory with my skills. The arms that were clasping his arms were as thick as arrowheads would not go through, and from a standing position, no gaps could be seen. He had huge horns on his head, as if he were a bison, and his face resembled that of an ox.

I said.

“The devil is coming to meet the devil, do I have to ask for permission?”

When Sosuin heard that, he squinted his eyes, and he took another look at me and snorted. Then, frowning on his face, he said with an empty smile.

“Incubus. They’re rare, but our boss will like them.”

The guy turned around. His body, which was broad even when viewed from the front, was thick when turned sideways.

“Go in.”

Following his words, I moved on. In the bright light, a huge tiger was drinking. His white fur was rough as if it had run across the desert, and black stripes ran across his face like scars. Each tooth gleamed like a dagger, and its unrealistic size overwhelmed me.

Several small demons gathered around him. Imps lay prostrate at his feet. He used to harass the imps by crushing them like floor mop or strangling him with his toes.

If you look closely under the tables and sofas, you can find several dead imp bodies.

Haha! Get another drink!”

And there were prisoners on both sides of him. Psychopaths who abandoned their pride and rationality for his mighty power were trembling at Beast King Baara. I couldn’t hide my disgusted expression.

There were demons around me whose names I didn’t know. A goat-like, pitch-black guy was arguing, and a man with one eye was eating snacks. I stood in the middle of the banquet, looking around, and at last noticed me, Beast King Baara raised his head with a glass of wine.

“What are you?”

How should I speak. Where should I start?

All I wanted was not to be run over by this bastard. The goal was to gain the trust of Bara by spending as much time as possible, and then escape. Alice and Lorena’s physical condition was now restored, and I needed to have some power in this group to be able to escape leisurely.

I didn’t bow my head. I said confidently.

“It’s an incubus. Here, a very talented man… I heard that there is a devil who treats you well.”

“Incubus?”

When Beast King Baara heard me, he laughed and nodded at the imps lying on the floor. The imps rose like lightning and charged me like wasps. The way he clenched his teeth and tried to grab my limbs didn’t seem like he’d received this kind of instruction once or twice.

I punched the side of the guy who ran into the lead, and easily subdued the guy who tried to grab my leg by stepping on his neck. Both of them went out at the same time. Bara saw that and asked while stroking my chin.

“Do you have combat skills? It’s been a long time since I’ve seen an incubus, an incubus that even knows how to fight. That’s funny. Did that Millia slut send me a present?”

He wasn’t as lunatic as he thought. I heard that he would rape any human being, and that he was not afraid to kill, so his heart was firmly entrenched, and the conversation was unexpectedly smooth. When he started talking about Milia, I chimed in.

“I didn’t like it, so I left. He just treated me like his servant. I heard he could treat you better here…”

Laughter was heard. The demons met each other’s eyes and made mocking faces, and Barra nodded his head while fixating his eyes on me.

“Yes, I always treat men better.”

The imp, who had passed out after being hit by my fist, approached Baara with his entire body trembling. Barra didn’t even look at the imp, but pointed to the underside of my table, waving his hand. As the imp fell back under the table like a footrest, Barra raised his foot and trampled the imp’s head.

His head exploded before the imp could even scream. The fallen corpse was picked up by a demon resembling a goat with a scythe and thrown into a corner. After learning the identity of the subtle sulfur smell wafting from the room, I felt uncomfortable.

Bara said as she wiped the blood off his feet.

“Imps are cheap even if they die. Isn’t it? Cowardly, small, weak.”

The still-living imp trembled in her corner, listening to Baara’s story. Baara said, fixing her eyes on the imp.

“The ones at the very bottom of the bottom of hell are those parasites. When we cause fear with force, they are parasitic on our fear and only feed their own greed. They don’t have plans for the future! I hate those who parasitize on my power. Tell me Incubus. What can you do here Are you good at dancing? Do you sing well?”

The last question was full of nuances that I didn’t expect from my abilities. As I was about to answer, the imp who was trembling in the corner jumped to his feet.

“Don’t ignore this imp! There is hope for us too! The Great Drek – After Psy ascends to the position of Pandemonium branch manager! We will offer your head to the imp altar to comfort our souls!”

Bara, who showed interest in me, hardened her face again. It was strange that such a variety of expression changes could be seen on the animal’s face. He twisted his face, then started laughing again. The moment he looked straight, the two demons who had noticed each other nodded and started laughing.

Barara laughed and said.

Haha! An imp to become a branch manager? I’ve heard rumors too. About the reason why the 5th branch manager couldn’t come down to the human world right now. Didn’t the imp gamble for the position of branch manager?”

“Don’t laugh! We imps are also members of the Pandemonium! Don’t ignore it because you have no power! If he comes, your dictatorship will end, so don’t regret it even now… !”

Baara opened his mouth and screamed.

For an instant, everyone shut their mouths and froze at the demonic power that filled the room. I was barely able to bear the loss of strength in my legs, and the two demons looked at Baara as meek sheep with their eyes wide open. The imp collapsed on the floor, clutching his heart, sweating profusely and gasping for breath.

Baara looked down at the fallen imp and threw down her own wine glass. The glass, which seemed lightly thrown, flew like a bullet and exploded the imp’s head. Bara said as she got up from her seat.

“There are people who believe that if the Pandemonium branch manager changes, my life will change. All the people who thought what would happen to the demon lord were all killed by the hero. They all died because they grew like flowers under the previous demon king. You have to change yourself to survive.”

Barra put her hand on my shoulder. He looked down at me and said.

“I don’t like guys who talk without ability. I hate people who get drunk on rumors and have strange expectations. Incubus. Did you come to parasitize me? Or, are you here to prove your skills?”

I looked straight into his eyes.

“I’m here to prove my abilities.”

Barra laughed, showing his teeth.
