Chapter 267 – [Descent of the Great Demon King]
Transcendentalists basically have different emotions and perspectives. Therefore, even if you do not know it from the outside, if you talk directly, you can notice that the other person is heterogeneous from the difference of opinion that arises there.
Even at worst, the notion or view of society was different. At the very least, he, who is like a human, would be horrified by the other great demon kings.
“Once the judgment has begun, it is almost impossible to stop it. Without the consent of all the Great Demon Kings, we will leave this planet only after the judgment is over.”
“……Okay”
“Isn’t there anything else you want to know about? Then, should we go see the older brothers?”
“Ha, would you like one more thing?”
“What?”
“If we, the United States, are judged, what will be the result?”
“Hmm~”
Norie’s gaze pierced Agent Jason.
He is also an American after all. He had no choice but to prioritize his country.
Even if all the countries on this planet perish, if only the United States remains, humanity will be able to continue somehow. But in the process, it will undoubtedly require a lot of sacrifice.
In the end, what matters is survival. It is in his heart that he wants to gain even a little bit of confidence right now.
“First of all, I’m innocent. Cienne will acquit you, and Utopia oppa will tackle you, but the probability is 50/50, and the worst man will be acquitted sooner or later. Even Mr. Phantom is innocent if there is nothing wrong.”
“Five……..!”
“But it’s just my prediction? I’m not sure what will happen. I’ll help you even if you just believe in that and make a fuss.”
“No, it was helpful enough”
The biggest benefit they gained was that they heard the propensity of the great demon kings through Nuri’s mouth. It was sure to be of great help in later analysis of them by the intelligence department.
Moreover, since the verdict was decided by a majority, even if only three were acquitted, the United States could survive. However, if four people are acquitted as expected, it seems that a little bit of caution will be enough. A heavy burden was lifted from the center of his heart.
“Let’s go, I’ll be waiting for you”
“Thank you for your advice, Mr. Nuri. If you are willing to visit us in the future…”
“That’s probably after the referee in America. After work, honestly, I can play comfortably.”
Following Nuri’s guidance, the US ambassador’s group moved to a hall in the center of the castle.
It was a place for an important ceremony, different from the spacious hall when you first entered the castle. As an example, there was an antique-looking throne that looked like something out of a movie, and stained glass made of crystal was emitting colorful lights behind it.
A total of five thrones. Don’t know what that means There were already about two people sitting there.
“What is it, Utopia oppa, but what about the worst uncle?”
“That bastard is washing the dishes now”
“Wow! Penalties!”
“Since the bet was a draw, I decided to play rock-paper-scissors, but even if the ‘sensation’ ability is the same, I’m higher in level, so it’s natural to lose in a number fight.”
“I’ll be washing the dishes while cursing.”
“It’s the fault of the loser after placing a bet”
One of the people sitting on the throne was the Phantom. He looked down at them from the throne, who was a beauty by looking at her face but looked like a man by looking at her sturdy physique.
I am used to looking down from above. Not physically, but positionally.
And in the last seat to his left, Sienne was sitting. Although they have a body similar to Nuri and have the appearance of their peers, purple eyes that are hard to come out of humans were watching them.
Nuri flies lightly and sits at the far right, opposite Cienneu.
“Utcha. My seat is right next to Utopia oppa?”
“Honestly, among these, the only person worthy of sitting in the middle is my dad, right?”
“It’s not like that”
If I were to choose only three of the five Great Demon Kings, it would be the strongest, worst, and worst three Great Demon Kings, but if I were to choose only one, only the strongest.
It wasn’t for nothing that Phantom received the title of the greatest demon king. Even if all the other great demon kings attacked, they couldn’t beat the phantom, so I said everything.
Phantom sat in the center, and Cienne and Nuri sat at the far left and right of it. And the seats left and right of the phantom were those of the worst and utopia.
“What, did you start slowly?”
“You’re late”
“Has Mr. Choi not come yet?”
“He’s late because he ordered the dishes done. If it wasn’t for that, he would have come and waited. Let’s see how he behaves.”
“After all, I came first, right?”
“Are you sure?”
“No, unlike Nuri, I don’t have that kind of hobby.”
“If anyone hears it, they’ll know I’m a masochist…… Ottoke know!!!!”
“I’m talking about it openly, but who doesn’t know?”
Most of them were extremely personal stories and meaningless chatter, but Agent Jason and the US ambassador’s party stayed silent without saying anything.
They are beings at a level where human civilization can only be judged.
Is that fake or real? If it’s fake, why is that? To see us?
Because he belongs to the intelligence department, he has a habit of constantly being suspicious. He considered various possibilities, but he deleted them all. Anyway, if beings of that level were to do something to them, the direct method would be much more convenient and faster than the indirect method.
“Ah, are you really not helping even one of these bastards? Their personality is understandable.”
“Oh, Cienne said he would help!”
“It’s okay for the kids to play. It’s okay because I didn’t tell you guys.”
“This bastard was told to marry earlier, but now he’s a kid?”
“Children are always children in the eyes of their parents”
“Oh, admit it”
He showed up while wiping his wet hands to the worst.
Soon he too sat on the throne. The five Great Demon Kings were each sitting and looking down at them.
“So, why are you here?”
Phantom asked them.
There was no courtesy for a concise question. But that was proof that he was looking down on them and not giving them any importance.
“We are here as ambassadors of the United States. Above all, we want to ask about your intentions and think about the future…”
“Briefly”
“…Yes, we, the United States, are willing to support you and provide you with every convenience during your stay on Earth.”
“They say it’s a country of lobbyists, so do you think we can get over it if we lobby?”
“No. How dare I tell you all…”
Agent Jason shook his head so much that he wondered if his neck was breaking.
If he doesn’t make a desperate argument, it would be strange if his country and not his life were lost.
“Well, I’m just kidding. We don’t judge good if you’re treated well, but we don’t judge bad if you treat badly. If you put your personal feelings in a judgment, it’s ignorant, so in the end, no matter what you do, the judgment is fair.”
“Your job is to catch and tackle.”
“Are you going to say that here too?”
“But isn’t it a passing grade for the US?”
“Ciennes doesn’t have any objection. It’s relatively well run in a democratic country.”
Not all democratic countries operate well according to that ideology, but countries like the United States are among the axis that operate well.
In the case of Japan, it was no different from a pseudo-democratic country in which high-ranking officials on the inside could not rise without blood ties and delays.
Although there is a difference between a country that won freedom from the beginning and a country that changed to democracy through external interference as a war criminal country.
“If we looked at it like that, you wouldn’t have been chosen as the Great Demon King from the beginning. So if you have a purpose, it’s better to put it aside. If it’s a pure favor, I’m willing to accept it, but don’t expect benefits from it.”
“……Could you let us know when our American referees plan to start?”
“Well, I was thinking of going to America after Japan. Shall we skip it for a while and do it in advance?”
Goosebumps ran through Agent Jason’s body at the words he spat out as if it were nothing special.
What matters to them is the judgment, not the order. If you set your mind to it, you can finish all the judgments within today, or conversely, it can take several months.
He looked up at the great demon lords, blaming his own mouth for not calling out his anger with useless words.
“Why? Even if you look at it in order, the United States isn’t too far away. Maybe even if we end Japan and judge in the direction of China, our turn will come around the globe?”
“If you go the other way, you’re saying it’s the first time.”
“Hmm, I agree. Didn’t they say it’s better to be beaten in advance?”
“Ciennes approves too!”
“I don’t really care, so do whatever you want”
“Then shall we proceed with a yes vote?”
Coo!!!
At that moment, their appearance changes. A gigantic will wriggled, making the castle made of trillions of tons of pure gold tremble.
The appearance of the phantom changes. It wasn’t the giant of the abyss like before, but it was definitely the same existence, and the whole body was stained with darkness.
If you look closely, it looks really strange. It does not appear black because it reflects black, but it is completely black, as if it appears black because there is no light to absorb and reflect. However, I could feel fear and disgust more than color in it.
[From now on, judgment on the United States begins]
A mighty will announced their will.
* * *
Heads of the US government, including President Drape, who were in the US, and experts in each field originally decided to check the situation in the field in real time and decide on important issues through the equipment of the US ambassador party sent to the golden castle, but the moment they entered their castle, they were contacted. This was cut off
Thanks to that, all they could do was, at best, figure it out through satellites. After spending a minute as long as a year in tension, they eventually heard the will spreading to all mankind.
[From now on, judgment on the United States begins]
It was the same will I heard in the previous referee. It is the will to completely understand the meaning to the depths of the heart beyond the language barrier!
Spreading a technology that was absolutely impossible for ordinary people and allowed only to those who stepped into transcendence all over the world meant having that kind of power.
“Huh?!”
“Dae, Mr. President!!!!”
“It’s coming…”
“Make a decision! You have to make a decision!!!!”
“So what? Didn’t you see it too? North Korea collapsed without a trace, so what’s the point even if we drop a nuclear bomb?”
Of course, North Korea and the United States are vastly different from military power to economic power, but the problem is that North Korea has disappeared as if it were a wasteland to the extent that no human traces or human bodies remain.
Even if you blow up a nuclear bomb, it won’t do that. A nuclear bag was already placed in front of President Drafe to launch the US nuclear missile, but honestly, there was no guarantee that he would be able to defeat them even if he used this.
In the first place, in front of a huge being who tried to erase a country with a finger, nuclear bombs were just the level of beans sold at stationery stores. No, compared to the Earth before that, it’s at that level, but it’s terrible for a bigger phantom.
“All we can do now is believe in our country and wait for it.”
Several members of Congress nodded in agreement with President Drafe.
[Let’s see… The firearms issue takes a while, but basically there is no problem found against ethics. Therefore I am innocent]
[It would be nice if the money invested in military power was invested in health insurance. Saving people is more important than killing them. I’ll just be guilty
[If it’s my level, it’s a decent civilization, and even if there are various troubles, there’s no big problem. I am also innocent]
[It’s a bit lobbying, but Ciennes is innocent because it maintains a political system worthy of liberal democracy.]
[Freedom!!!! There is no way I, the great king of freedom, will not take sides in front of a free nation! I am also innocent!]
[Don’t you want to be a little too free? Lobbying, gun control, things like that. Shouldn’t freedom and self-indulgence be seen clearly?]
[If it’s not at Rapture level, it’s fine]
There is one guilty, but only one. They had already guessed that the decision would come out by majority vote, and this time there are five judges.
Guilty is one in five. Innocence, on the other hand, is four out of five. Obviously passed.
[With the innocence of four out of five, the judgment of the United States passes. Remember. Our hurdles are lower than you think. If you believe that you have been conscientiously managing the country well, it is a level that can pass]
[I know that we are inflexible]
[Besides, even if the present is a mess, if there is room for improvement in the future, that will be counted as a passing grade]
[Anyway, this will end the judgment on the United States]
Complete shutdown.
At their declaration, President Drape collapsed like a deflated balloon. When the extreme tension and fear disappeared, what followed was happiness and joy.
“Go, Your Excellency!!!!”
“…….Prepare the speech to the nation. As soon as possible. The text of the speech… No, you don’t need to prepare it. We’re going to broadcast it live, so just prepare it.”
“All right!!!!”
People will be of the same opinion. A monster capable of wiping out a country allowed America to survive.
What could be happier than that? Few emotions were as intense as the feeling of surviving.
Then President Drafe looked around and looked at the other assembled members of Congress.
“It would be better to spread the word about the national health care bill. It will be impossible right now anyway, so if there is a backlash from the medical community, it would be better to turn to the national health insurance and come to an agreement.”
“Mr. President, if you were the only guilty one…”
“I have to fix what needs to be fixed. I don’t know if next time.”
It was an opinion that would normally be rejected by someone lobbied in the medical community.
But in the current situation, there is no way I can refuse. In the first place, it was not easy for the medical community to come out with a backlash when the Great Demon King, who erased the stars, was convicted and beaten.
Because everyone in America already thinks that health care is too expensive.
One of America’s plagues is beginning to show signs of getting better.
