Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 200
46. Keeping the promise from 10 years ago ⑴
A thousand rays of blue light poured down on the man at once.
The light overlapped and turned into flames of hundreds of millions of degrees.
Who would have imagined that one could survive in it?
Padrahel also flapped his wings in the air and poured out blue flames from his mouth.
It was right after that.
Padrahel saw something incredible
.
A person jumped up about 50 meters into the air.
He casually rose through the overlapping breaths of a thousand dragons and swung his fist.
The startled Padrahel covered himself with his wings.
However, the shock wave from the fist penetrated the dragon’s wing membranes, scales, hard body, and strong bones.
A crunching sound shook my ears.
It hurt so much that I looked down and saw that
my completely broken torso was staggering in the wind.
The force of the fist that the being struck penetrated the body of the Lord of Light, Padrahel, and affected hundreds of meters.
The weak dragons’ wings broke and they fell to the ground.
Even if it was an elder-level dragon, it could not be safe. They also flew to a high place to escape the wind.
Padrahel cast a healing spell on his body.
Dragons are magical beings. Everyone is under the illusion that they are hidden by their strong bodies, but
their organs are magical.
Broken bones were fused together and torn muscles were repaired in an instant.
Red spots appeared on the dragon’s chest and side wings. Mana Heart glowed so fiercely that even the skin was covered in red.
She cast a healing spell and at the same time opened her mouth to the enemy.
It would definitely have taken a toll.
There is no enemy in the world who would not be hurt by the breath of a thousand dragons.
Even if it is the devil!
The moment his thoughts reached that point, Padrahel was startled.
“You… are the Demon King!”
Deus looked at her with heavy eyes.
“I ask. Do you have any regrets about your decision? “Is it worth what you gain by passing on to us the bitter cup of betrayal?”
Padrahel’s eyes wavered.
The word betrayal seemed to bother him.
But that feeling only lasts for a moment.
“Among the beings living in this world,
there is not a single one who likes demons!”
“Even if people spit and hate, I don’t get angry. But can you forgive someone who pretends to be your friend and then stabs you in the back?”
Padrahel closed his mouth.
Even if I had 10 mouths, I had nothing to say to excuse myself.
Deus glanced at the dragons surrounding him.
“Even Yulgeum can’t blame me. Everyone die. “I will accept the curse of death with my own body.”
His body was covered in blue flames.
He held out his hand and aimed. About 10 dragons were covered in the palm of my hand.
When he took his hand away again, the dragons that had been in his palm had already disappeared.
It breaks down into fine particles and disappears.
The dragons were erased along the lines drawn by the hand. Padrahel shuddered at his awesome power.
What on earth can stop him?
At that moment, a tremendous amount of light rose from the ground and engulfed Deus.
His body exploded, emitting several layers of smoke.
The clothes were crumpled.
Deus brushed off his clothes with his hands and looked down.
They are all warriors.
There were quite a few familiar faces as well.
Zodiac Night.
They are the strongest in the human world.
“Lord of the aquamarine world! Please step aside for a moment. The enemy’s anticipation is too sharp. “We’ll take care of this place for a while.”
The one standing at the forefront of the Zodiac Knights was Cadenza version of Holy Peach. He was a Holy Knight of Libra.
Deus turned his eyes from the dragons to him.
I slowly got down to the ground and looked at the Zodiac Knights one by one.
“I won’t say I’m glad to see you. But it’s funny that you talk about betrayal. “I guess it wasn’t that long ago that we were deceiving ourselves by
pretending to be human .”
“Is it a cadenza?”
“It is an honour. “You finally remembered my name.”
“That sloppy countertop reminds me more clearly than the name. “If you attack me, your life will be on the list of hell.”
“I definitely wrote it down behind you.”
Deus laughed.
The corners of his mouth were pulled up so much that his fangs were almost visible.
I lightly stretched out my fist.
The black wind devastated a distance of tens of meters.
The soldiers of the Octagonal Horse Order were blown away by the wind.
But they were warriors.
They are also the most powerful warriors in the human world.
Cadenza shouted with his shield in front.
“All that God has given us is a little hope called courage. But just because it’s small doesn’t mean it’s weak!”
The eight Zodiac Knights came together as one
to create a huge cross.
The angel’s protection became light and illuminated them, and their auras resonated to form a huge shield.
The Demon King’s attack could not penetrate them.
“This is the power of the true courageous aura of a hero!”
Hearing Cadenza’s shout, Deus turned his neck and made a clicking sound.
“Then shall we take a look? “That is the power.”
Each of his hands became colored white and black.
At that moment, the battle from just the day before came to mind.
There was a time when I summoned the power of the Death God Beast and hit it with all my might.
Archangel Kamael.
If all beings with the name of Archangel had similar powers…
Deus bit the root.
A clicking sound was heard from the molars.
“shit! “Everyone die!”
Ma Ying Qi stretched forward.
The warriors’ expressions became pale. It was a completely different power than before.
The angel’s protection protected them, but stopping them was not easy.
There were cracks in the light shield created by Cadenza’s shield, Juven Elgenubi.
Oridon took his place. Oridon held the bastard sword and holy sword Antares vertically to block the demon king’s energy wave.
The cross organically transformed and received Deus’ magic energy one after another.
The eight of us withstood the devil’s blow.
The wind of Deus stopped.
The warriors took a deep breath and looked up at the Demon King.
he laughs
“Even if you are a hero, there is no final man, so that’s just the way it is.”
I took a step forward and punched my fist.
The wind blows. Although it was only one step closer, the pressure the warriors felt doubled.
My skin peeled off as I was hit by the torn skin of the earth.
However, the formation could not be disrupted.
The moment the crosses of the ranks fall, they will all be destroyed individually.
Cadenza felt sick.
Why didn’t God give him the same strength as the Last Man?
The pureblood rating barely exceeded 9.
In fact, that alone was a huge figure. However, there was an insurmountable wall between 9 and 10.
A warrior with little experience like Regin was stronger than him just because he was 10% pureblood.
If only 1% of the blood had been made redder,
they wouldn’t have looked like a bunch of people fighting the devil.
The Demon King’s second attack has been resolved.
In fact, they only swung their fists twice, but the Zodiac Knights felt like they had been in a long decisive battle.
But it was not a meaningless struggle.
Being able to block it is itself important.
Swordsmen, archers, and wizards belonging to the Zodiac Knights maintained their respective positions.
They attacked all at once.
The blue dragons reorganized in the sky also poured out their breath according to Padrahel’s orders.
Each attack might have been weak. However, if the attack is so dense that there is no room for even a single needle to enter…
it works!
It was the exact moment everyone thought so.
Cadenza shouted in surprise.
“Holy knights! “It is not time to relax yet!” The Demon King
took
another step through the smoke .
The dragon’s breath, countless magics, arrows overlaid with spirits’ prayers, and even the assassin’s sharp sword.
Countless attacks were as if they did not exist.
There he stretched his fist forward.
Even the breath changed direction as it was swept away by the wind.
It was just a fist, but it was all sucked in and spread out, wrapped around the demon spirit energy.
The Grand Cross
was the strongest defense technique that the Zodiac Knights could perform.
At least five people formed a cross-shaped formation to amplify their divine power.
However, the defense posture began to creak at the Demon King’s third attack.
The metal that made up the shield peeled off like scales due to fatigue.
The knight, who lacked divine power, was bleeding from his nose.
May this hellish pain end!
Everyone just prays and endures it. I couldn’t even think of a counterattack. The people
around him, including dragons and wizards,
attacked the Demon King even more fiercely. It was to reduce the burden on the warriors, even if only slightly.
By the end of the blow, they felt only one emotion.
My feet keep stepping backwards.
The body stiffened and cowered, and the head screamed that another strategy was needed.
The name of the emotion that is weighing them down is despair.
Courage is depleted and hope feels like a dreamer’s delusion.
Wouldn’t it be right to step back and fight
together with more colleagues ?
It may be necessary to mobilize an army of up to 700,000 people and further increase the strength of all of humanity.
There is no way that only 8 warriors can stop it.
That…
is the king of fear.
The brilliance emanating from the Grand Cross has noticeably faded.
Although it was due to the consumption of divine power, the biggest reason was that the warriors were scared.
Even the cadenza was not free from despair.
It felt like a mistake to send Regin, who was comparable to the last hero, to the Demon King’s Castle.
If he had been there, he would have been able to block the Demon King’s attack more easily.
Following the blue jade dragon, the ruby dragon and black dragon lords led an additional 2,000 dragons and covered the sky to deal with the demon king.
But they immediately regretted their choice.
Deus drew the sky as if he was waving his hand
.
About a hundred dragons on board were broken into pieces and fell to the ground.
Who would have imagined it?
It is said that you can cut down beings on a line just by drawing your finger in the sky.
The dragons bit the army.
I ran away to a higher place.
They insisted that the breath would reach them even there, and they took refuge in a safe place from the devil’s blow.
The siege is widening.
Everyone took a step back.
Even the warriors widened the distance from Deus in the name of rational tactics.
The closer I walked, the more pressure the Demon King had on me, so I calculated that the further I got, the better the situation would be.
But there was no doubt that it was the worst option.
The warrior had to move on.
Even if you are broken, you must keep going.
If you step back and increase the distance, your courage will have room to hide.
Deus casually
stretched out his fist again.
Rather weaker.
It was a really light punch.
His blow touched the warrior’s shield.
I thought it would be much better as the distance increased by a few steps, but…
two of the warriors fell down on the spot, coughing up blood.
Cadenza also fell to one knee, bleeding.
One of Oridon’s bastard swords, which was supposed to block the sword, was broken.
