Chapter 263
As the leader of the beings of darkness, which are the symbol and source of evil, Tan holds a small wish (?) to stain the world of Arcadia with blood and darkness. He clung to Jaeyoung's side, always looking for that opportunity.
“Ha... Damn the owner's child. These days, you’re wasting a lot of probability on nonsense.”
Tan was very dissatisfied with Jaeyoung's behavior these days.
He has recently earned a lot of probabilities. However, through that probability, instead of contributing to the survival of the demon realm by strengthening himself, he kept wasting it meaninglessly in strange places, so from the standpoint of watching it quietly, his stomach hurt just looking at it.
“Why are you giving that damn adventurer so much? No, more than that, why are you allowing me to bring out the miracle of a goddamn sapling that wasn’t even allowed?”
A world tree that has great divinity and influence, but is not allowed to use special magic. It was a balance that was carefully adjusted according to his father's will to balance the power, but this damn owner just overturned the game as if he didn't know anything about it.
“Huh..... It's not good... If we go out like this, we're really going to break the rules...”
In this Arcadia, there are numerous factions that are eager to exert their influence. did.
celestial world.
devildom.
spirit realm.
fantasy world.
The beings fighting fiercely behind the scenes to increase their influence and somehow gain the upper hand in Arcadia. However, among these four dimensions, the Demon World has maintained its second place.
“While that sapling was asleep, the influence of those bastard animals and elemental cubs was reduced as much as possible....
The world tree is directly in charge of channeling, so the illusion world and the spirit world are very closely related to her. As the World Tree went to rest after the Holy Demon War, the only entrance to Arcadia for them was almost closed, so there was no need to worry about Tan until now.
“They shrank like deflated balloons, but they put the respirators back on like this...?”
It was a confrontational structure that was no different from a two-sided battle between the heavens and the demons.
However, due to Jaeyoung, the composition began to distort little by little.
[If you twist it, you will become a Elementalist.]
This time, he preached the greatness of the Elementalist in front of countless adventurers. And starting from that day, Tan sensed anomalies coming from countless demons and small creatures spread across the entire continent of Arcadia.
[Elf
? Do you get job change quests from the elves?]
[You have to be handsome first? What do you mean?]
[Spirit! Spirits!]
[Druids look really strong too..... How can I do that?]
The movement of adventurers who show tremendous interest in the spirit realm and the phantom realm.
The fact that all the customers who should have worked hard to attract them to the side of hell through sales were all turning their heads to that damn sapling's business place, which gave Tan an immense sense of crisis.
“It can’t be done..... It can’t be done.....”
The demon world’s influence achieved despite the persecution of those damn chickens.
It was a very important time to solidify its influence based on the empire of evil and darkness created by the adventurer of the black flame dragon of darkness, so Tan couldn't help but feel impatient with the influence of the suddenly growing world tree.
“The damn owner has no idea what the hell he’s up to.”
A fussy adventurer who sometimes seems to act for evil and himself, and sometimes not. But even so, because he possessed an absurd level of probability and was able to use that power freely, Tan always had to keep a low profile and look at him.
“Ugh, X-foot..... It looks like X, really. I don't know when I'll be able to fix the thing that broke my god.....” He
always puts it off, saying he'll fix it later even though he frowns all the time. However, despite his absurd behavior, Tan couldn't say anything.
Whatever it was, there was no way to restore the Deathbringer, a symbol of the Demon World and his precious weapon, to its original form other than using Jae-young's probability to fix it.
“Haa... I need to take care of the kids and come back.”
The situation on the continent of Arcadia is complicated. As he pondered about his plans for the future, Tan muttered with a stiff face, and then closed his eyes and focused his mind.
Whoops.
The time when Jae-Young, the only medium and contractor who can stay in Arcadia, is away. Taking advantage of this time, when he was tightly bound by the constraints of probability and unable to exercise any influence, Tan, as always, naturally abandoned his avatar in the form of an imp and returned to his original body. In the true form of Satan, the great king of corruption.
seat of corruption.
A place like a symbol where only the absolute ruler and ruler of all fallen people in the realm of demons can sit. He closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep, but when he opened his eyes, powerful black magic power began to emanate from his entire body.
Roaring.
Just by radiating magical energy, the flames of hell were realized, and the whole body was blazing. His transcendent body, which is likely to erase mountains and divide the sea with just one gesture, and a pair of wings surrounded by a huge film attached to his two horns rising sharply and menacingly, show off their majesty as a symbol that shows that he is a fallen devil. there was.
[Are you back, great king?]
A demon waiting for Tan to open his eyes. A succubus in the form of a rich and decadent woman. She was so beautiful that even the soul would be seduced by mere eye contact, but at the same time, she seemed to be hiding a deadly poison, and she knelt down in front of Tan and showed her utmost respect.
[It took a long time this time.]
Unlike usual, her monarch returned to the Pandemonium after a long time. However, he spoke in a voice mixed with anger unlike usual.
[I should have said Lilith. Don't wait for me to come back and do your job.]
Succubus Queen, the ruler of the Dream Demon and the lord of all depraved lusts and desires. Lilith.
She always loyally waited in front of the throne of corruption and waited for her to return, but Tan did not like her behavior.
[This is a presumptuous statement, but how could I dare to do that? The Great King is the Absolute Ruler of this Demon Realm. This is a necessary measure to protect a completely defenseless body while consciousness is transferred to Arcadia. In addition...]
Lilith, who speaks dozens of words to Tan, explains the justification for her actions. But at her words, Tan frowned and said.
[Hey Lilith.]
[Yes, my lord. Did you call me.]
Lilith answered with a smile at Tan's words calling her. As if proving that the adage that you can't spit on a smiling face is bullshit, Tan spit at her laughing face.
[Do you really want to die?]
[Yes...?]
Lilith was clearly taken aback by those words. Normally, she would just laugh and move on, but since she was in a situation where she was already annoyed by the matter on the other side of the continent, Tan suddenly tripped over her actions as if she had been caught well at this point.
[I definitely warned you the other day, don't keep coming when I'm defenseless and staring at me like a stalker. Do you think I don't know why you keep fooling around next to me in case someone isn't the lord of desire and lust? protect? How many ranks are you here, and who is protecting whom?]
18th in the demon realm.
In the Demon Realm, a world where rank is determined only by strength and power and combat ability, she is ranked much lower than other monarchs, even though she is the lord of the dreamers.
[And I definitely said I didn't like the performance of your sales team, right? Apparently, it fell by 23% last quarter, so I asked them to bring a report on cause analysis and a future performance supplement system, but why didn't they bring it? Do you think I'll forget if you say you'll bring it and then go overboard like this? Shall I really shake it off today?]
Devils of the Pandemonium are struggling hard to steal the souls of humans. However, in the case of the Nightmare Department, which Lilith is in charge of, its performance has been sluggish to a disastrous level.
[That's that... That's because we can't interfere with the adventurers...]
Lilith speaks in a voice that is not confident, as if there's something unfair about that statement. There was a reason why her department had been underperforming recently.
-When you make a contract with a devil, don't do it with a succubus.
- Combat ability is also sluggish, there is a strange charm skill, but the efficiency is garbage.
-real. It seems to be specialized in curses, but if that's the case, I'd rather be a necromancer.
-Is a good thing as pretty as a devil when signing a contract? Other than that everything is garbage.
-Heheh..... Succubus older sister.....
Dream horses that gained popularity because they were prettier than other demons with a rugged appearance. However, since the fact that the main skills obtained from contracts with them were widely spread, contracts with dreamers have become an object of avoidance for black magicians.
[Ha... are you saying that as an excuse to me right now? What did I say when I called the kids the other day? Do you remember what you heard then?]
While doing so, Tan took out a black notepad and quickly glanced at the bloody notes. Lilith rolled her eyes and spoke in a trembling voice at his meticulous and meticulous questioning.
[If you wring even a dry rag, water will come out... I think it was said that in order to extract a human soul, you have to wring it out by any means and methods...] Lilith trembled in reply
.
At her answer, Tan smiled coldly and asked.
[so. Did you and that fucking sales team do their best?]
[.....]
Lilith couldn't answer that question. Seeing her reaction, Tan slowly walked around her and said as if talking to herself.
[I mean..... Sometimes I feel empty at times like this. Those damn chickens are already on the edge in Arcadia, but they're all working together, trying to fuck me up somehow. Even I am going through all the hardships in my later years to earn a chance by running a business locally, but the guy below me is sitting leisurely and flirting and sucking honey. I mean...?]
[My King... that's not it...] Lilith,
with quite a puzzled look on her face, stuttered and tried to explain that it wasn't like that. However, she opened her mouth as if she couldn't think of a good excuse, but Tan smiled brightly and said firmly.
[It’s okay. Tell them to gather under me and above you.]
[At least that, please...!]
Lilith kneels down and asks for forgiveness, frightened by Tan's words. However, Tan spoke with a grim face as if he had no mercy at all.
[Will you call? Or should I go find it myself?]
The Demon World is a society based on strict rule of thumb and a class society.
There, too, there was bitterness and absurdity.
Just like anywhere in reality.
