Chapter 615 – Damn Three-Way Battle -2-

News that Dokgo-rin and Lee Cho-ah have arrived.

Ichoa left a huge backpack containing her luggage at her mansion with her greetings, and walked through the streets of the empire with her ladies.

Dokgo Rin said she would follow her goddess’ creatures so that there would be no problems, but she disappeared without a word.

The women did not hide their feelings of curiosity and gave Lee Cho-ah, who was looking around, a guide to the empire and headed to Roman’s other residence.

“Choa. This is the house where her brother used to live.”

“Wow…”

Even just her single room is more luxurious than she could imagine.

It may be a rumor, but Lee Cho-ah has no memory of ever living in a house with a yard like this.

“Are you going to stay alone? This is on the outskirts of the capital, so it’s not very safe for a woman to live alone.”

Eclair continued by saying that this was not a skill issue.

She’s worried because if she sees something dirty, she might be in a bad mood all day.

Eclair suggested that she also have her own mansion in the capital, but Ichoa smiled and said that she was grateful just for her words.

“I’ll be staying with Sister Lin, so it’s okay.”

With those words, Dokgorin appeared without any sign and looked around the yard.

“Hmm, it’s small and doesn’t have a bad taste. Looking at the yard and window frames, you can see that it’s been taken care of with care.”

Rike, the person who has been managing this house on a regular basis, raised the corner of her mouth and quietly watched the two people.

After checking Ichoah and her surroundings, Dokgo Rin turned her gaze to Roman’s spouses.

“Why is everyone so lethargic?”

“””···.”””

Unlike the last time we met, there was a strange sense of silence.

It’s too quiet considering the number of people there.

“Ah, maybe it’s because of Roman. I pretended not to be a girl, but it didn’t make sense.”

When her husband is mentioned openly, some people who are not good at hiding their emotions flinch.

Dokgorin paused for a moment before continuing his next words.

Because I know that this is not just a feeling of worry.

‘These kids have faith that Roman will come back. I guess it’s just that since I’m away, I’m dying to see it.’

Dokgo Rin herself has no experience, so it is difficult to understand love, but if you substitute her sister-in-law, she can somehow be understood.

“In her early encounters with Roman, she tried to figure out whether he was a kitten or a tiger cub.”

There seemed no need to avoid the topic of Roman.

I’m telling you an unexpected story because I think people will be happy to directly mention the side of Roman that I saw.

“What did you think?”

Eclair, who had maintained a calm expression without change, showed interest and raised her voice.

Everyone’s eyes lit up with faces that made them want to hear stories related to Roman.

After a brief pause, Dokgo-rin grinned and answered.

“It was neither.”

“···?”

Everyone seems suspicious of the incomprehensible answer.

When she made a gesture that she didn’t even know Ichoa, Lin said an extremely abbreviated word and entered her house.

“Anyway, don’t worry too much. For Roman, actual combat is the most advantageous condition for survival.”

The growth in practice is surprisingly fast.

But more than anything, who else but himself could handle Roman’s talent of coming up with twisted numbers at a moment’s notice that make the differences in rank insignificant?

*****

[Opening the mind’s door]

As soon as Roman’s image was opened and developed, the two great devils also opened their images and fought back.

Starting from Roman, the dark red thunder energy struggled to spread in all directions.

Naberius burst into dull green flames throughout his body, attempting to devour the two transcendents.

Barbatos concentrated his mind on not being robbed of his dominance by anyone and completely molding the seven black stars that rose behind him into magic bullets.

Tsuzuzu that is!!!

A strange phenomenon that would not have occurred if two images had collided and engaged in a simple power struggle.

Three images with different essences collided and began to coagulate in layers.

If someone’s mana were to color the entire thing, it would be a clear result that could judge victory or defeat from the outside, but now the mana condensed from the outside has created a solid layer, making even that impossible.

The mass that arrived in Pandemonium is a space completely blocked from the outside world.

No outside gaze, such as from a demonic spirit, was allowed.

Unlike the quiet outside, the inside is a battlefield.

Kugugu──!!!

The space trembles violently as the tug of war between the three transcendents continues.

Now, no one could move from their seat.

This was the first time the three of them had expressed their imaginations, so no one expected that they would be restricted in their actions and fight for power like this.

Every second of maintaining this situation causes more mana consumption and mental wear and tear than a few hours of melee.

This is the moment when a slight disturbance turns into a threat that ends life.

A picture where each other’s images are endlessly offset, leading to a radical war of attrition.

Roman quickly scanned the flow of mana and the great demons and was convinced.

‘···These demons are truly trying to kill each other.’

Just like themselves, the distribution of power to each other is 50-50.

So what breaks this balance?

‘Impurities.’

Now that outside invasion is impossible, and it is obvious that it will be the devil who tries.

We need a free outsider who does not become the target of our imagination.

In Roman’s image, in his hands, lies the key to solving the situation.

At the same time as the decision.

The armor wrapped around the body glows and takes shape.

“Kuhuhu, it’s time for Rakshasa and Nir to step forward.”

“I’ll do my best too!”

The complete manifestation of Gleipnir and Rakshasa, the two who appeared according to Roman’s will.

Naberius and Barbatos showed intense agitation.

─ Wow, you’re crazy!

─ Crazy person…!

That is something that Naberius and Barbatos cannot understand with their common sense.

Great devils do not give even the high-ranking devils they name the right to step into their thoughts.

Even if it is a servant who has sworn loyalty, or a weapon with a soul bond, the Great Devils never ‘allow’ their images to others.

In reality, even if the other person does not have bad feelings, it can be dangerous or annoying depending on your actions.

If you knew how many people Roman had put into his images and given permission to enter, it would be hard for the demons who possessed the images to believe them.

The great devils have endured the bloodshed of Pandemonium for thousands of years and ten thousand years, building a fence for self-preservation, and they have such an obsession that they can be described as fanatical.

However, there are certain benefits to those who take risks.

Taking action to rule out what ifs make a difference at critical moments.

“Nir, please.”

“Yes!”

Looking at the devils who do not change their distribution of power even in this situation.

The Rakshasa raised the corners of his mouth, finding such modest pride amusing.

“Master. I will use my strength.”

“Use whatever you want.”

With permission, the Rakshasa stretched out his loose sleeves and grabbed Gleipnir’s hand.

At the same time, Roman felt his man draining away to the point where he felt dizzy.

“”Geonganjeong (乾降精), Gonwonryeong (坤援靈), Sun and Moon Sang (日月象), Gangjeonhyeong (岡澶形).””

The mouths of Roman and Rakshasa move at the same time, and the voices reciting incantations overlap, creating an image that resonates.

A huge sword appeared in the air.

“”Hwiroejeon (撝雷電), Unhyeonjwa (運玄坐), Chusanak (推山惡), Hyeonchamjeong (玄斬貞).””

The 28 constellations densely engraved on the surface of the sword glow with the energy of pure yang.

The holiness and sanity that demons find fear becomes infinitely stronger.

─ !!!

Barbatos knows.

That person had always tried to kill himself first.

So then, where is that bloody sword headed?

My throat feels cold because I know the answer.

However, you cannot move your feet. Losing your concentration and being pushed away here is a certainty of death.

─ Naberius! Cooperate with me! That human’s death is the devil’s wish!

At the urgent voice of Barbatos, Naberius’s heads make a rumbling sound and laugh in satisfaction.

And it changes the distribution of mana.

─ Naberius! What have you done..? Do you think the Demon God will allow this kind of disgusting behavior!

The flames of corruption were not directed at the humans who continued the spell.

Naberius reduced the force directed at Roman and restrained Barbatos with all his might.

─ Tsk tsk, don’t worry? I’ll tell you that he died a very ugly death.

─ This crazy puppy…!

I know that no matter what happens in this space, it will not be leaked to the outside world.

If we kill Barbatos here and deal with the humans, what happens internally is up to Naberius’ fluttering.

If the three-way battle falls, the current bizarre tug-of-war will end.

We even understand that we are entering into an ordinary mental battle with humans.

[Four Sacred Swords (四寅斬邪劍)]

A sword that can surely kill even the great devil.

A blade that even Naberius, the strongest in Pandemonium, was glad that it was not pointed at him was completed.

“”Nir.””

With my eyes closed.

Roman and Rachasal called out to Gleipnir at the same time.

“I’ll tie you up…!”

Gleipnir used his power according to Roman’s wishes

Pabababak!!!

Hundreds of chains erupted from the floor, binding not Barbatos but Naberius’s massive body.

─ !?

The Great Demons were taken aback by the unexpected picture. I roll my eyes trying to read the situation.

‘This is right.’

Roman knows how important bluffing is in the fight between transcendents.

What kind of results can be achieved by breaking a behavior that has been done over and over again?

So Roman thought.

It is important to kill the shooter first. But that’s only when there is a vanguard in front.

Also, what is Gleipnir’s origin and purpose?

The reason she was born was to bind her Fenrir, and there is no weapon like this to block the transcendental being in the form of a beast.

─ On the topic of humans…!!! How dare this body!!!

Only then did Iberius realize that he had been used and deceived by humans.

Phew!

A huge blade plunged into Naberius’ heart.
