Chapter 135 – Exodus (3)
“Aaaaa!”
Imps were the underdog in the demon realm. A race that becomes stronger by making contracts with humans and absorbing their souls. Instead of being able to become infinitely strong by extorting human souls directly, they were demonic punching bags with child-level strength and physique.
All demons despised the weak and servile imp. The way he cringed, claiming that it was a contract with a human, and the way he tried to buy sympathy like a beggar by clinging to a strong demon, were things demons living in the underworld would never like.
Moreover, because of their weak stamina, which is unique to imps, they couldn’t even endure the ceremony of subservience, and they always changed their masters if the situation turned unfavorable. Cowardice and cowardice. Imps were persecuted endlessly in the corners of the demon realm with the two words that symbolize them.
“I will not forgive you!”
Among such imps, mutations were bound to appear. 3 brothers. K-Psy, Creek-Psy, Drek-Psy.
Drek – Psy was born with an exceptionally large size and strong strength among imps. As soon as he was born, he realized that he had the ‘power’ to lead the Imp race, and strangled the demon who was harassing the Imp race with one hand.
Seeing his heavy power and talents, which are different from ordinary imps, many demons persuaded him to come under him, but Drek-Psy never gave in to their demands. It was because he was well aware of the suffering his brothers and imps had suffered.
The humiliation of being despised by the entire race because there is no powerful being.
An environment in which they had to grow cowardly and servile because they had no one to rely on.
Drek – Psy wanted to be a beacon for the imps. He wanted to become a huge beam and the king of only imps and embrace them.
“Baara! Come out now!”
K-Psy and Creek-Psy went to the human world to help their brothers achieve their grand dreams. They wanted to gather their souls, grow in size and strength, and stir up the Pandemonium as Drek-Psy’s vassals and reliable companions. I wanted to make them realize the fear of imps who are ignored even by humans, and suck all the souls of humans.
Just like that, the three of them promised to rise to the throne of the demon king and command the world.
“Baara!”
Drek – Brimstone tears flowed from Psy’s eyes. In front of his eyes, he saw the tent where Baara lived. Drek – A narrow entrance that Psy’s body can’t get into and a full of iron bars everywhere. People were crouching in the cage, and there were also bones scattered around.
They were trembling at the sight of a demon they had never seen before. Drek – This wasn’t the time for Psy to covet humans. He didn’t care what became of the humans. He pulled his foot back and kicked it toward the tent like a soccer ball.
The entire tent was crushed, and the wind blew. The wind, like a heavy hammer, plowed the ground like a plow and uprooted the tent. The iron bars that confined the humans were terribly bent, and the humans trapped inside rolled on the floor as if fruit were pouring out of a fruit basket.
The humans looked at Drek-Psy’s angry face and the still cluttered figures of the beastmen, then started running towards the forest without saying who came first. Someone’s voice came from behind the humans.
“Humans run away!”
Hearing that voice, people started running faster and faster. Old tree roots scratched their ankles, frozen leaves smacked their faces, but they didn’t stop.
******
Barra held up her wine glass and tried to comprehend the situation in front of him. She felt a powerful energy from somewhere, and suddenly the tent was blown away, and in front of her, a large demon resembling an imp was glaring at her as if to kill her. Krampus and Cyclops, who were partying together on either side of him, were staring at the imp-like monster with their eyes wide open.
“…What are you?”
Drek – Psy shouted in a boiling voice.
“Baara! I have come to avenge my brothers! Killing you! I will make this land a paradise for imps!”
Bara had no intention of dealing with Drek-Psy seriously. Even if it was a big imp, an imp was an imp. There were too many foolish groups in the demon realm who exaggerated their powers and urged their opponents to surrender.
How many devils have been fooled and taken advantage of like fools by such bravado. Bara was convinced that the imp in front of me was of that type. Let him nod. Cyclops and Krampus got up at the same time and charged at Drek-Cy. Their movements were rough and sharp, like a torrent.
Cyclops unfastened his belt and swung it like a whip, while Krampus whirled his scythe to cut off the bastard’s retreat.
But that was it.
Drek – When Psy swung his fist, the face of Cyclops, who had not been able to avoid it, was crushed. His hard, thick mug crumpled like a pancake, and his eyeballs protruded and rolled around. Krampus, who narrowly avoided the attack by rolling his body to the side, was horrified to see his comrade expressing his death by twitching his limbs like a performance art.
“Where are you looking!”
And the next room. Drek – A huge fist flew with Psy’s cry.
Krampus’ scythe, which he had pushed forward for defense, shattered like pieces of glass. Just as he was in his gaping stance, Krampus was hit by his fist and flew backwards. When Baara turned his head, he could see that Krampus’ body had been flattened and pressed like a mural.
The prisoners trembled and clung to Baara, and Baara distorted his face. He had heard that the existence of the king of the imps was incredibly strong, but the rumor was neither a joke nor a bluff. This imp-like monster in front of me was really strong.
Drek – Psy shouted at Ba Ara, showing off his fists dripping with blood.
“Baara! Do you remember the names of my brothers you killed!”
“I do not know. I don’t remember the names of every person I’ve killed.”
Bara sat on his chair and stretched out his legs strongly. Tables with side dishes flew up into the sky and food spilled out. The beasts hurriedly ran away without saying anything first, and Drek-Psy smashed the table that was blocking his view and smashed it.
And in preparation for a surprise attack, I took a defensive posture without even realizing it.
“Joy.”
But nothing happened. The sound of Bara’s ridicule only spread throughout the clearing.
Through the splinters of wood, I could see Baara still sitting lazily. Drek-Psy distorted her face even more at the act of ignoring him.
“This Noh Ohm… !”
“You are very scared! Imp. Check it out. Are your brothers here?”
As Bara said that, she moved her foot under her sofa. Every time he flicked his toes, the corpses of imps that had been frozen under the couch rolled in. Imp’s head. Imp Wings. The mummified corpses of imps and their tortured faces.
Drek – The imps that Psy wanted to protect were suffering here.
Drek – Brimstone tears flowed down Psy’s face. Those tears weren’t from simple sadness. It was the tears of blaming herself for being lazy while taking a break in the Demon Realm to make this happen. Bara saw his tears and laughed.
“Are you crying because you’re scared? Uh? I heard that among the imps, there was a devil who defeated the branch manager, but Sung-jung seems to be a girl… !”
Bara couldn’t continue the next word. Drek-Cy’s body staggered as he threw his fists out like lightning. He moved his head to avoid his fists, but the cheeks he was laughing at were torn apart and blood splattered. The rock wall was crushed like a sponge. Drek – Psy exclaimed with an expression full of rage.
“…I will kill you! I will kill you! Enemies of the Imps! Cut your throat! I will comfort the souls of my brothers!”
Instead of answering, Bara stood up and scratched Drek-Psy. His massive claws brushed past, leaving a thin scar across his chest. Drek – Psy checked his body as he stepped back. It was definitely a menacing claw, but at this level it was manageable.
Bara said while wiping the blood from his mouth.
“I’ve never had an imp as my subordinate. But, it looks like you’ve finally found a useful imp! Promise me! After I knock you down! I will make you my servant! I will ride you like a horse! I will use it as a table for a banquet!”
Drek – Psy shouted as if he would not give up to Baara’s cry.
“Take off your skin! I will use it as my armor!”
Drek – Psy’s fist flew towards Baara once again. Bara raised his claws and teeth. The gaping mouth let out a roar at the reckless imp who challenged him.
“You alone! Do you think you can defeat all the beastmen in this valley! This is my territory! Don’t be cowardly and resent that subordinates are coming!”
“To talk about cowardice like that! How can I rise to the throne of the demon king!”
Two branch leader level demons collided. The bloody demon created a storm with a heavy roar.
