Chapter 722 – [A Journey to the Demon World]
I made a call to the dimensional communicator while moving after processing Zantman.
Opponent: Gilhyun Choi. He is my nemesis and my greatest hero.
Why do I want to call this guy, but it’s because I remembered what he talked about in my previous life.
-Uh, it’s me. What’s going on? Have you called in a while?
“I’m busy, so I’m only asking about business, but isn’t there the Great Demon King from Aregish that I talked about the other day?”
– You mean the one that found the body?
“Yes, that”
There must have been something left in the scars on the corpse. No matter how stupid I am, I see it.
One of the four dimensional species such as Arregish and Shion, and one of the other dimensions, such as the Dream Giant, is a dimensional species that presides over the seat of reincarnation.
Although the number is said to be the highest among dimensional species, it should not be ignored. This is because the existence of the Great Demon King is no different from an irregular one.
In the first place, they are the ones who can repulse even the Absolute when they gather together. Daguri doesn’t work for the absolute, but I could see their level when I saw them draw.
“Could that guy. Don’t you have scars from the death of the Dream Giant?”
-…….How did you know that?
“I know roughly”
Originally, Aregish is superior to Dream Giant in terms of compatibility.
The compatibility between Aregish, who can absorb emotions and memories, and Dream Giant, who deals with dreams, which are unconscious decisions derived from such emotions and memories, were very bad. But the world doesn’t go back to normal.
Hey, if that’s the case, in Pokemon, I only raised performance characters, not love characters.
Come to think of it, if my wife was Hanon, she should have had the upper hand against Areghish, but since she is human and has feelings to absorb, she would rather lose to Areghish. So there is something like compatibility, but it’s not absolute.
So it wouldn’t be strange if Dream Giant beat Aregish.
However, on the other hand, compatibility cannot be ignored. Even if you can win, I think it will be difficult to win by landslide without getting hurt.
If he was mortally wounded and needed something to heal his wounds…The strange laws and existence of this world would make sense.
– He is the king of dreams. It’s pretty challenging. He hasn’t reached the road, so he’s a similar opponent compared to you right before the road, but he’s higher than you in terms of race. He may be a more dangerous opponent than the Warlord.
“This is our side. Don’t interfere.”
– Still, you should prepare for it.
Why did Aregish, the great demon king in charge of the soul, stop him even though he had a bad relationship?
It was because it was something I had to do as a great demon king. It was because he had to stop the opponent who crossed the line as the same Great Demon King.
Even if I’ve never seen one before, I have a responsibility as the Great Demon King. So, I had an obligation to stop the guy who was once the same Great Demon King.
– Why don’t you ask for help from Master or the other great demon lords?
“There’s no way the Absolute Fate would have let it be resolved so easily. It’s obvious at least. If I contact you, they’ll say that they can’t come for a while because of urgent matters.”
Nuri and Ciennes were excluded due to lack of force. To call it a utopia or a phantom, but if the absolute of fate were plotting this behind the scenes, the two of them would be planning something that couldn’t come right away.
Above all, Jantman said:
“Anyway, this world is just a dream my father dreams of,” He said.
Dreams disappear like a mirage when you wake up. If the dream giant who created the supernatural power of imagination wakes up, even if it is not his intention, he does not know what will happen to this world.
Besides, the guy who stood in the chaos camp couldn’t be sane. Those guys were the ones who moved with the goal of annihilating humans.
I don’t know about the Demon World, but the humans on the continent die. Illusion Lord, who stood in the chaos camp in the past, tried to act that way.
-Rod is a complete being by himself. If you recover your strength with the faith or will of others, your rank will drop. However, there is no limit to those below that level of Transcendentalism… Above all, the power of imagination must be a skill that goes well with him. The compatibility can only be very good.
“I don’t want to lose to the parasite that has been parasitic to the world and sucked my willpower while sleeping for a long time.”
The Great Demon King did not maintain neutrality, and was in the chaos camp drunk on the extreme idea of annihilating humans, so it was better to let go of the old man who was recovering by manipulating one world because he was hurt.
There are quite a few transcendentalists who will catch each other when they are active, but it is better for me to deal with them here. Like I said before, it’s because he’s the same Great Demon King.
If there is a person who crosses the line in a job that requires keeping the line, we should deal with it to save face. This is a matter of trust among the great demon kings.
-I’ll be going there soon too. So that we can take care of any problems……..So take care of yourself.
“Is there a need to care so much between us? If you die, you die. Cut it off.”
After I cut off contact with Gilhyun Choi, I immediately called Shion.
Received before the first beep ends. It seems that my wife was also waiting for a call.
– Were you busy? I haven’t been in touch lately, so I’ve been waiting.
“The current situation is so I’ll tell you only the important things. I’m taking care of myself for a while with the kids. I’m going to my parents’ house.”
-……..What’s wrong?
I explained the situation to Zion. The fact that the Great Demon King from the Dream Giant is secretly working behind the scenes of this world, and that he doesn’t know what will happen when he wakes up.
So, you have to evacuate with the kids before that. I’m not thinking about losing either, but I don’t know what if.
-Dream Giant……. It must be difficult because it is a dimensional paper opponent.
“It’s a warlord level of urgency. Take the kids away.”
– For now, I will only take my acquaintances and family to avoid it. But what about those with many dependents?
“What kind of family?”
-First of all, I’m talking about your sister, your fiancé, and the elf lady.
“Ah”
From the standpoint of ruling a country or territory, it was impossible to leave them alone. Then, just like a president, he will say something like ‘Seoul is safe, everyone!’
But time is running out. The fact that a guy like Zantman, who was secretly working on the back side of the continent, even took his own life as a handicap meant that time was running out.
In a previous life, people on Earth also took a long time to migrate to the Martian civilization. The population of the continent may be smaller than that of Earth, but it is still insufficient.
“……Let’s talk for now.”
-What if I refuse? Even if everyone else is, your sister certainly is.
Will you abandon the empire or die with it?
Of course, my defeat was assumed here, but there was an if.
But my sister is a great person who will not abandon the empire even if she dies. If you forcefully take it, you will only get a backlash.
I value human pride. Even in the face of life-and-death, if you don’t bend your convictions and end up with the Empire, you respect that.
“Tell everyone else and take only the people you want to go with. The rest can’t be helped, so I’ll give up.”
-…….When I see you sometimes, it’s scary to draw a line.
“I don’t think they’re precious to me? It’s just that you’re more precious than that.”
The first priority is the safety of Zion. Even if all the acquaintances I met in this episode die, as long as Shion lives, that’s enough.
Of course, the responsibility and guilt for that is my share. It’s natural to be criticized for throwing away the people you loved just because you loved them less than Zion.
-It was like that in the previous Warlord as well.
“He may be weaker than Warlord, but your safety is still important.”
-If you win, wouldn’t it be so fuss-free?
“There’s a ‘what if’.”
-Do you think you’ll lose before you even fight?
“I’m not saying that”
Oh, screwed this up My husband’s wife has a slight pout.
If you make more excuses here, it will result in making you even more angry. I had nothing to say, so I was just silent.
-Even when you went to fight Warlord, I was hoping that you would win in a safe place.
“………..”
– I don’t know the heart of a person who fights, but on the contrary, you probably don’t know the heart of a person who just waits.
“I guess so”
When I think about it, I put Zion first, but I rarely thought of Zion’s position. For me, since Shion is untouchable, it was rather difficult to think in the closest part.
I couldn’t fathom the feelings of Shion who was waiting to see me go to fight an opponent who could die like this time.
Even a couple who have lived together for thousands of years must know something, but they didn’t know what they should know the most.
– But it’s okay.
“……..Sorry”
– I’m not saying this to hear an apology. This is my job. They’re fighting anyway, and if I tried to help, wouldn’t it just get in the way?
“My wife is strong. If you fight with me, you can win, so what are you doing?”
– No need for swear words. Among the Transcendentalists, I know that I am weak.
It’s not a lie to say that Shion can fight me and win, but I can’t fight and win against a transcendental being of the same rank as me.
As a species of the 4th dimension, its power is strong, but Shion is weak because it is not suitable for fighting. Even if you are a human weapon with thick muscles and a height of more than 2 meters, if you have a personality that freaks out at the sight of blood, you will not be able to fight.
If I’m against the guys I have to risk my life to fight against, it’s rather helpful for Shion to hide away in a safe place. If I get hurt for no reason, I can’t fight properly because I’m too busy protecting myself.
– But I’m used to waiting. When you’re reincarnated, you’ve become accustomed to hundreds of years of painstaking searching.
“Sorry”
It hurts enough to hear the sound of my conscience being cut to pieces.
Because of this age, I can’t always be by your side. While living reincarnation over and over again, Zion feels the void of a lover that I do not feel.
– Even knowing all of that, I still loved you. If you were thinking of giving up in the middle, you didn’t even love from the beginning.
“I…….”
-Do you love me?
“Sure, I love you more than anything in this world”
Even if there is something I will love as much as Zion, there will be nothing I will love more than Zion. At least, the only things I love as much as Shion are me and her child, who will be born to Shion someday in the future.
-The reason you think you’re losing isn’t because you lack confidence, it’s because you’re afraid I’ll get hurt. But do you know if I’m missing one of them?
“Uh, what?”
-Whether you win or lose, whether I get hurt or not, I will continue to wait for you.
Unlike the time when the soul could be rescued because of good compatibility like in War Road, this time I can’t be sure.
In battles between transcendentalists, it’s not uncommon for souls to be smashed to a complete end. It was not for nothing that the absolute of denial and contradiction said that my reincarnation might end this time.
But whatever the outcome, Zion will wait for me.
-Are you going to leave me alone?
“No”
-Are you going to make me a widow without a child?
“No”
-Are you going to let me, who has more lives to live than the life I have lived so far, live alone?
“Absolutely not”
Shion laughed softly over the receiver.
I can guess what kind of expression he is making. Shion’s expression is rare, but she must be smiling lightly now.
-I wouldn’t commit suicide even if you really died. You live because I exist, but I would rather live than die without you.
“I won’t let that happen”
-Then win and come.
In this moment, it is Zion who gives us such encouragement and believes in us.
If it was someone else, I would have asked to run away too. However, Xion understood me and did not object to my fighting itself, but was cheering me on to win and come back.
-I’ll be waiting for you here. I’ll wait until you come back So win and come back.
“Okay, don’t worry. I’ll blow that bastard’s face off”
-That’s it. Has the feeling of losing a little gone now?
“I’ll bring a souvenir when I come, so prepare a decoration.”
-Don’t worry, there are plenty of seats in the wedding ring exhibition hall for my husband.
I made a joke and hung up the phone.
The tension and worry that had existed until just now had long since flown away. Right now, I have no choice but to become the great demon king of my dreams and to continue with my wife for a hundred years, no, a thousand years, or ten thousand years.
Above all, he said that Zion should win.
If my wife did that, she would win. There is no such thing as losing. Just win
“Win and go back”
I was determined. As expected, True Heroine’s support is the strongest buff.
Just as I was about to move with my mind set on moving… I realized a very important fact.
“……But you don’t know where that bastard is.”
Sandman should have given him his address. I want to kill him a little hastily, but he wouldn’t have told me anyway.
But there are people to know, no God. We’re going to meet anyway, and it’s better to gather more information, so I’m thinking of going to see you right after I’m done with the demon world.
I turned around and moved to the demon castle.
