Chapter 356 – Chapter 36

Devildom.

A world where strength determines everything.

However, the meaning of ‘strong diet’ is different depending on the demons.

For example, demons with cruel tendencies catch the weak, tear their flesh one by one, torture them, and enjoy the screams of the weak.

The authoritative Demon Tribe preys on the weak, and likes to punish the slightest mistake until the bones are exposed.

What they have in common is that they treat the weak as they please.

And to those demons, the most delicious weakling is human.

Born weak and numerous, in the past, demons who contracted with black magicians often played munchkins against humans or kidnapped them and returned to the demon world.

However, if there is a hole in the dimensional wall, and even the Demon World runs rampant in this world, where heterogeneous species are still flowing in from somewhere, the real world may be destroyed or similar problems may occur.

Therefore, the evil spirits prevented the demon world from intervening in the human world by warning or dealing with the black magicians who tried to open the demon world.

“Aww!”
“Kerukkereuk!”
“This is the smell of the human world! Kissishit!”

And today, as a huge portal opened, the passage to the Pandemonium was connected to the Kingdom of Lucy Arkenel.

“…”

The expression of most of the Guardian Corps was not so good when they saw the first demons rushing out of the portal where the red sky and the black earth seemed to be polluted.

If you study a little bit of history, you can see how much damage the demon world has done to the human world.

However, since they, who are supposed to protect the world, connected the demon world, they can’t help but feel bad.

“Don’t worry. As I said before, the contract was automatically engraved on the demons passing through the portal. We will destroy everything in the kingdom of Lucy Arkenel except for us.”

The black magicians, who used Nozgna’s support and various high-end resources to enter the human world through the portal, opened a great magic that automatically concluded a contract, and were relaxed.

“The real problem starts now. Everyone get ready.”

There are two problems with this great magic.

The first is that the moment the magic is used, all mana users in the West Continent can feel it.

The second is that demons constantly appear, but the number is inevitably small at first.

In other words, if the enemy senses the existence of magic and reacts quickly to close the portal, the small number of demons will not be able to defend it, and the tower can collapse in an instant.

Dig–

Like right now

“The number of demons is still small! Attack!”

Charlize urgently shouted after teleporting everyone except for Lillian and Priscilla, who had to command the troops, and Akina, who had to block the Confederates.

“Ahahahaha! It’s demons this time! I really like this world because there’s no time to be bored!”

Jin Soo-ah, who raised her twin swords, rushed at it, feeling the joy of fighting the demons.

“It’s human!”
“Human females cry pleasantly when their wombs are ripped out!”
“I’m going to tear your eyeballs out!”

Demons with reddish skin like internal organs and skeletons different from humans attack the rushing Jin Soo-ah.

As if they were of the same species, they basically had sharp claws and additional arms on their shoulders, and they swung four long arms and charged at them.

If it were an ordinary knight, he would have hesitated at the sight of sharp arms that seemed to block cavalry.

Jin Soo-ah, who cut off only her arm that interfered with her path, digs into the gap and repeats the twinkling light around her.

Tutu tu tuk–

The demons, whose bodies were cut into multiple pieces, collapsed powerlessly.

“Kiik! Strong human! Strong inkyuk!”

As the demons, frightened by Jin Soo-ah’s strength, scattered, magic arrows were shot and pierced the heads of the fleeing demons.

“This is our only chance now, when the number is still small! We must destroy the magic circle that maintains the portal! Detect magic power and identify a place with strong power!”

Charlize gave orders in an urgent command tone instead of her usual relaxed and relaxed tone.

“Okay! One at a time!”

Jin Soo-ah felt the strong magic behind her portal and stepped on her light air, ignoring the demons.

Feeling lifeless, she swayed her upper body, ignoring her inertia, and distanced herself behind her.

Quadduk!

A huge sword mark is engraved in the direction Jin Soo-ah was going to go.

“Your year is Jinsua. Lee Jong-nyeon, who betrayed the Guardian Corps.”

A knight, heavily armed from head to toe with a greatsword the size of her own, glared at Jin-soo.

“I admit I betrayed the Legion of Guardians. But more important than that is my conviction.”
“Hah, faith? As expected, it’s a filthy heterogeneity. You pretended to be a reason to betray as faith.”
“Ah~ Yeah yeah~ That’s right~ If someone else does it, it’s betrayal, and if you do it yourself, it’s the cause. You’ve even connected with the Demon Realm and have a very noble cause~”
“Our actions will make this land a land of the dead for hundreds of years. But it’s better than filthy alien species growing in power!”
“…You guys are truly unanswerable bastards.”

Jin-soo-ah stuck out her tongue at the perception of the Guardian Corps, who were sure that if Lee Jong had a land of rest, he would grow her power and defile the world.

The drifters she saw were a bit greedy, but they were just normal humans who accepted her good intentions with goodwill and expressed gratitude.

They are no different from humans in this world, but just because they came from another world, they kill them without guilt as if they were biting insects that came into the house.

If we had understood each other and chose coexistence, the damage caused by heterogeneous species would have decreased exponentially like the East Continent.

Jin Soo-ah, whose smile had disappeared, ran towards her knight.

The Guardian Corps and Kaicent’s party, who wanted to maintain the portal elsewhere, clashed.

Surprisingly, the side that overpowered the baseline was the Guardian Corps.

“Huh!”
“Wow!?”

Dang Seol-young, who was the lightest armed among Kaicent and his party and was confident in speed, widened the distance in surprise when a heavily armed knight caught up with him.

Pachichik!

When the energy blade and magic sword collided, Artie was astonished that she was being pushed back by force.

“These humans, Priscilla’s are strong enough to boil!”

Elsewhere, they were being pushed back by the fierce resistance of the Guardian Corps.

Naturally, Charlize, who judged that she had prepared something, caught the abnormal strength of the Guardian Corps while detecting the flow of his magical power.

“Crazy bastards…! Consuming their life force!”

The armor they wear is not a normal magic weapon.

It is more like a cursed weapon that gains great power by consuming the user’s life force.

They have strengthened to counter the fighting power of Kaicent and the others, so if this battle is over, their lifespan will be 3-4 years, and in the worst case, only 1 year will remain.

“Sir Sirin! Celestine! Help the two of them stop the demons!”
“Yes!”
“The demons of this world are less dignified than ours.”

In addition, the attacking side has to block the demons that keep coming out of the portal.

Shirin, who had infinite physical strength, and Celestine, who had divine power from another world, were the most effective at blocking the portal.

“Looking at the baby’s situation, I support both sides…Baby?”
“…”

Lastly, Charlize, who was giving instructions to Caicent, who would be her hidden card in any situation, flinched at the frightening energy.

“Connecting the Pandemonium and the portal, and sacrificing their own lives to stop us?”
“Baby. Baby!
“Why do you want to go to such lengths to destroy us and the peace we have built? Why?”

Thanks to Artie, the murderous intent that had barely subsided is boiling again.

Charlize, feeling that her mood was unusual, ignored her mission to deal with her demons and grabbed Kai Cent’s face.

“Kaisent!”
“Uh, Mom?”
“You mustn’t be eaten by hate!”
“That…But…!”
“Rage against them is justified anger! But if you’re consumed with hatred, you’ll curse not only them, but the whole world!”

She had a hunch that Kaicent had entered what the Murim people call Shimma, and that if she did not stop it, the worst monster would be born that would destroy the world with endless anger and hatred.

A monster of crazy talent who learns other people’s skills as his own after a little experience.

“Expel righteous anger on the evil deeds of the Legion of Guardians. But do not be sucked into their endless hatred.”

Kakakang! Key! Ingaaan! Keek!

Numerous malice erupts from all sides.

But Charlize showed how dangerous it was to indulge her opponent’s malice and hatred in the center of malice.

“Ha…But! I’m so, so! Madly mad at those who set this up!”
“I’ve been saying this since before, but it’s only natural that you feel anger. Even killing them is a fight to keep the peace we’ve built. But you’re trying to hate not only them, but the whole world.”
“Why not? This world is trying to kill us! We have to take this opportunity to reduce the number of humans on the West Continent so they won’t attack again!”

Kaicent was trying to retaliate with malice sent by all the countries of the Western Continent.

If this continues, a monster that will slaughter hundreds or tens of millions will be born.

“With your strength, it’s possible. But can you proudly say you’re safe after killing millions of humans in front of Akina, pregnant with your child?”
“!!”

Imagining her proudly speaking to Akina after killing countless people, all covered in blood, made her feel a disgust that cannot be described in words.

“She’s not just Akina. Especially Tang Seol-yeong. If she puts her mind to it, she can make the West Continent a land of the dead. But the reason she didn’t is you.”
“Me…?”
“Because I don’t want to show my baby that I became a monster while slaughtering innocent people.”
“Sister Seol-young…”

That’s why Dang Seol-yeong killed Pee Jeten and made a medicine that destroyed the morale of the knights, and she was in agony.

It’s because I took a step towards the monster at the boundary between humans and monsters.

“This war is an unjust war committed by the countries of the Western Continent. That’s why we have to win this war and show that the drifters are not monsters. And Aga, who can be said to be the representative of the drifters, is the most important.”
“Yes? I…Representative? Why…?”
“Well, even though Aga is a drifter, he will become Queen Lillian’s husband.”

It seems that Kaicent was not properly aware of his position.

“Finally, think for yourself which side you will be proud of in front of your children in the future.”

The image of herself trying to protect her family from those who would harm her.

The image of herself looking at her family as a slayer who won’t stop killing even when covered in blood.

Kaicent, who has a good nature, was able to completely get out of his mind thanks to Charlize.

Rather than killing and killing until each other is destroyed by hatred, he realized that he had to fight to protect his family.

“Mom, I’m coming.”

Kaicent took a stance as he watched everyone struggling with unexpectedly powerful enemies.

“Come back. And protect everyone.”
“Thank you. It has been my greatest fortune to have you as my adoptive mother.”
“Hehe. Thank you. Mom will work hard too♥”

Kaicent, who had suffered from a darkened face and heartache throughout the war, thanked Charlize for her clearer face.

Kai Sent, whose upper body leaned forward as he gripped his spear, disappeared in an instant.

“Cheuk!?”

When he reappeared, it was after Tang Xue-yeong pierced the body of the knight he was dealing with.

With a hole the size of a soccer ball in his entire armor, the discarded knight fell down and couldn’t stand up again with a puddle of blood.

“Sister.”
“Above?”
“Thank you.”
“Yes? What is that…?”

Dang Seol-young could not hide his embarrassment at the sudden change of mood and his sudden gratitude.

“It’s just. Everything. It made me realize three or three times how much my sister has done for me.”

Kai Sent corrected his stance while handling the article and smiled at Tang Seol-yeong.

“The day I drifted into this world. If I hadn’t met my older sister, if she hadn’t had a kind personality, I wouldn’t be where I am today.”

If Dan Seol-yeong, who was stressed by sudden drifting and unfamiliar environment and met Kaicent, who had no established values, was a monster with hatred and malice, he would also become a monster and destroy the world.

“I will deal with the enemy, so just focus on destroying the magic circle.”

I wanted to continue talking to Dang Seol-yeong, but the situation was such that after saying that, Kaicent’s figure disappeared again.

The intense aftermath informed us that it was not teleportation, but simply tremendous speed.

The boy, who was suffering from the hatred of the other person because of his naturally good nature, has lost his mind and has no hesitation in using his power.

“Keah!”
“Ke-heo-eok!”

When Kaisent disappeared like that, it was after holes were formed in the bodies of the knights.

“Stop him!”

However, the Guardian Corps members who had already given up their lives gained the ability to counter Kaisent’s speed by sacrificing more life force.

“To hate us just because we’re of a different species without even trying to find out about us! Even then, do you guys have the right to use the word guardian!”
“Shut up Lee Jong!”
“What a filthy heterogeneity!”

The Guardian Corps were enraged by Kaicent’s screams.

However, the boy who responded to the opponent’s malice not with malice, but with legitimate anger as a human being, did not fall into the bounds of the endless hatred of the Guardian Corps.
