Why I Quit Being the Demon King

Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 151

34. A friend comes from afar (4)

“Your highness!”

“What’s going on?” Alex blocked his path.

“This is a long, urgent message.” Deus frowned.

“What happened again?”

“Oh no. “It’s not that, it’s an urgent message.”

“So what is an emergency message?”

“Now in front of the palace, in front of the palace!”

“In front of the palace, what is in front of the palace?”

“This is Jin Geum-yong!”

“Jingeum Jingeumyong?”

“No, it’s just Jin Geum-yong!”

“Why did you act like you couldn’t see me and then come to see me already? “After all, she is a woman with light hips.”

Deus said this and stood up.

“Guide me.”

“Yes, Your Highness!”

“Let me be clear, your butt

is not light!”

She was Yulgeum, standing with a fresh expression on her face.

“It’s so nice to see you in tears.”

“really?”

“My stress level was a bit high because I was getting annoyed by idiots.” Deus looked around.

The seven dukes averted their eyes with awkward faces.

“What are those things in the back?”

“Elders.”

“Is it an elder dragon or something?”

The expressions of the dragons in the background, who looked like old men, hardened.

“Things? Hmm. What to do with the lions who came to form an alliance! Tsk, tsk, why are the demons…

Deus glanced at him and asked Yul Geum back.

“You came to form an alliance?”

” that’s right.”

Alex said, taking a step forward.

“Instead of doing this here, how about inviting them to the guesthouse?”

“Those below take care of that.

“I’m going to talk to you head to head.”

“Oh, you’re inviting me on a date?”

“Damn…don’t get scolded in front of your subordinates, just follow me quietly.”

“It’s a prickly pear. “I’m shy.”

Deus took Yulgeum to a high place in the Devil’s Castle.

“Where am I?”

“First of all… my office?”

“Wow, you have good sense. “I like the terrace here.”

“I won’t give it to you.”

Yulgeum sat leaning against the stone railing.

The demon Eidos was visible at a glance. The city, where all kinds of strange things nest, was full of colorful vitality even though it was gray.

“It looks like this. Eidos.”

“What, have you never been here before?”

“ O ”

o’*

“During the Silver Age… you said this was the land of humans back then, right?”

“It’s a completely different scene from back then. Even Ji-hyung is different.”

“It’s only natural that 666 centuries have passed

.”

“Is Lakhe back home?”

“Well, for now, we parted ways near the border of mugwort. “I guess he left on his own.”

“Isn’t that too cold-hearted?”

“Because it was a contractual relationship.”

“But we were colleagues for quite a long time.”

Deus shrugged his shoulders.

“But it seems like you’re more attached to Zeke than me?”

“Right, right? The two of you were in a pretty good mood. The warrior and the grass. Will love that transcends race truly bear fruit

? Another woman, Lexia, was watching. ‘Come to your senses, Zeke! That’s not a human. Grass is grass!’”

“Is it fun?”

“uh.”

Deus leaned his arms on the railing and snorted.

“So why did you really come?”

“To form an alliance.”

“Demons and dragons?”

«Ugh» o.

“That’s a really strange combination. “Until not long ago, we were on the human side.”

“Originally, we dragons were the polar opposites of humans. Dragons are what warriors hunt the most. “They said they need equipment.”

What Yulgeum said was not a lie.

The reason I first became involved with Yulgeum was because of the disappearance of the dragons.

Dragons who fell into madness after being poisoned by demon poison attacked the human world, and the hero mercilessly killed the dragons.

Although it was confirmed that a hard-line dragon and some demons were involved,

the suspicion that humans were also accomplices was still strong.

“Well, in the end, everything happens what the hardliners want. Oh, and take the kids in prison here. “I will give it to you as a commemorative prisoner exchange.”

“okay.”

“So what’s the real reason? Why do you suddenly want to form an alliance with us?”

Yulgeum just laughed.

“What are you really in love with? “You can’t hide your love for me, so you’re sacrificing the fate of your country?”

“That’s right.”

“Uh…

“Would you please accept my request? I’ll give you everything. Instead, just let me be by your side.”

“uh? uh? to?”

“Hahaha, that expression is really the best. “I should keep a record of it and look at it whenever I feel depressed.”

Yulgeum burst into laughter and opened his mouth again.

“There is no such thing as why. “I am the god of dragons, but I am only an administrator.”

“manager? “Are you saying there is a real owner?”

“How could a creature with free will have a master?”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“I like it just that much. “A woman who doesn’t have too many secrets is no fun.”

“Anyway, I’m being selfish.”

The conversation stopped for a moment.

Both of them are just looking into the distance.

“The alliance is sincere.”

“Do you think I’m free enough to take the elders to the demon world and tell jokes?”

“It’s true that you’re free, right?”

“Wow, that’s ridiculous.”

“Honestly, I can go back without you. Dragon World.”

“Well… if you really want to argue, it’s not wrong.”

“All documents are useless, right? “You can just make a stamping machine and have it do it for you.”

“How do you know so well? “I guess it’s about experience.”

“Well, that’s right.”

Even without the Demon King, the Demon World continues. It was the same with the dragons.

Deus spoke again.

“Still, the Demon King fights a human hero once every 100 years. “What are you doing?”

“Come on. “After all, you are still acting as the balancer of the world?”

“I wish you peace in the world.”

“ah! I’m pissed. “Can’t you speak without making a fuss?”

“There are too many secrets there.”

“What are you so curious about? My three sizes? 36 from the top…

“Are you kidding me from the start? If that is 36, the human average would exceed 40.”

“You can’t really show it.”

“So the demons are that inferior?”

“Yes?”

There was confusion in Yulgeum’s voice.

“Well, what’s the point…

“20 years later. No, it would be difficult to endure that much, right? “Seeing as how we’ve already come this far.”

“What are you talking about? “You’re not good at it?”

“Now I’m starting to understand a little bit what you’re saying. Harmony and balance. The damn gods of this world are happy now. Or extremely conservative. They probably don’t want the demons and humans to be in balance and

have the power to take each other’s land. no?”

“Ah, I can’t hear you.”

“Is this the right answer?”

“Anyway, you pay attention to strange things. If he were the devil, he would only cause destruction and chaos. Why are you so interested in the structure of the world?”

“Because it’s tying me up.”

“It’s just as you said. “I can’t talk about the power ratio in numbers, but the Demon Realm is at a disadvantage of about 10:7.”

“Is it as many as seven?”

“Zeke got kicked out.”

” already?”

“I guess it’s surprising that you were kicked out.”

“A sharp stone is bound to hit hard. “I thought it would last a few years though.”

“Anyway, if Zeke were all together, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say it would be 10:5.”

“Damn your subordinates.”

“Stop swearing. The subordinate’s fault is also the superior’s fault. “It was Deus’ fault.”

“I don’t think so. The ball is mine. “It’s a subordinate thing.”

“It’s shameless. Still, you came back because you felt responsible,

right? To the demon world.”

“First of all, the problem is 20 years from now. No, I don’t think it will take that long. Cadenza I heard that guy is itching to invade the demon world. 10 years? “If we just convince Zeke, they might invade in 5 or 6 years.”

“Can you stop it?”

“You mean Zeke?”

“ O ” H*

“If we fight right away, I win.”

“I guess so.”

“In 5 years… Well, I’m not sure how strong Zeke will become. If I face a tough

opponent, I will lose. “Because now the possibility of growth has been closed to me.”

“Is it because of Mahon?”

“ O ” ”o*

“What is Mahon?”

“It’s the devil.”

” you?”

“I am also a demon lord.”

“Is it like self-immolation?”

“You don’t know? “A topic I feel like I know everything about.”

“I don’t know exactly. There is such a thing, I just know it. “Being too interested in the affairs of other races

can be problematic.”

“The demon soul is like the will of the demon king. will? That seems like a strange explanation… If you think about it, it’s a collection of the consciousness of past demon kings… Can we call it the Senate? But that doesn’t mean the consciousness of the dead demon kings is really having a meeting. “Because at the moment of death, we assimilate and become one.”

“All for one one for all. “Is there something like that?”

“I haven’t died either, so I don’t know exactly what it feels like. However, the former Demon King, who has not been dead for a long time,

has the greatest control over the Demon Soul. “The demon soul itself is a mass of common consciousness that a demon lord naturally possesses, so it is like a sleeping soul.”

“So, the soul that just entered becomes the representative.”

“That’s what it feels like.”

“Then you are my father.”

“He is a father, a grandfather, a great-grandfather, and a great-great-grandfather. “Because all demon kings are related by blood.”

Deus clicked his tongue.

“It’s like a famous father who got caught up in gambling by selling his mountain.”

“Fuha, that’s perfect.”

“Is this something to laugh about? They say my house is ruined. “If you get angry, you kick the alliance.”

“I guess they already stamped the treaty? “You want the subordinates to take care of it themselves?”

“I guess there’s nothing to say, even you idiots. I was tricked by the previous demon king and took over the country and overthrew it. How dare the dragons form an alliance, I’ll put my stamp on it. I read the contract, but I don’t know. “If a demon were deceived, nothing would be funnier than that.”

“So no matter what happens, you still believe it? “You left it up to Duke Chil to take care of it.”

“Do I trust it or bother it? As you know, demons are like an alliance of many races with different habits. “There are even people who can’t communicate, so trying to coordinate them will break your head.”

“The Seven Dukes are the chiefs of the tribal union. “If you think about it, they are kings.”

“Isn’t it the same there? “You are a god, not a king.”

“Humans are like that too. “Each country has a king, but the one who represents humans is the Holy Hwangcheong warrior.” “They say you’re not a ruler

, but like a slave who has taken on

something troublesome .”

“That’s because you keep running away. If you want to be a ruler, you can do that. Even if you call tyranny against tyranny, no one will rebel, right? Enjoy it to the fullest for 100 years. “The life of a ruler.”

“Are you serious about that advice?”

“Isn’t that what you want to do?”

“No, not at all.”

Deus crossed his arms and rested his butt on the railing.

After thinking for a moment, he opens his mouth again.

“at all.”

“why?”

“Is that fun?”

“It’s power.”

“It’s just a weakling who wants to prove his strength. “If you are confident in your power, you don’t bother to check.”

“That feels a bit like a famous quote.”

“Write it down and memorize it.”

“You don’t know about humility, do you?”

“Is it delicious? “It’s called humility.”

Yulgeum laughed.

“fun.”

“Don’t like it too much.”

“Yeah, I’m trying to do that.”

“Are you going back after the meeting?”

“Why do you want to hold it?”

“huh. “I’m so lonely without you.”

“Then catch it.”

“don’t go.”

“Tell me more. “Let my heart move.”

“…I think my hands and feet will shrivel up if I keep this up?”

“Okay, then I’ll stay with you a little longer.”

“I refuse.”
