The mortal who will kill the demon king

Looking at Latun’s shining eyes, the demon king hardened his face.

Even though he must have recognized that the attack didn’t work, and that it wouldn’t work in the future, he didn’t like Latun’s laid-back look.

[Are you laughing?]

The Demon King took his feet off the floor for the first time.

Like Latoon, the Demon King, who appeared after disappearing momentarily, held out his palm to Latun’s chest, and Latoon responded by punching the Demon King’s palm.

bang!

Only the noise is loud, but it still feels like a ball of cotton. It is still the same that the body is being pushed by an unknown force as it was the first time.

However, the smile on Ratoon’s lips only grew thicker.

A tremendous level of battle that has never been seen in my life continues in front of my eyes.

‘too fast.’

Horn himself is also a transcendent four-horned demon, but the battle between Latun and the Demon King was so fast and intense that he couldn’t even see it properly.

Surprisingly, the room is still intact.

Although many of the gins installed in the room exploded in the aftermath of the fight, the room still held its shape.

It’s definitely a strange room… Horn thought.

‘As expected, we shouldn’t fight in this room.’

The Demon King seems to have an advantage even at a glance.

It was Latun who threw a lot of attacks and hit as much, but the demon king didn’t seem to take any damage from his attacks.

‘I’m not even avoiding it anymore.’

When Latun’s attack comes, just accept it and aim for the counter.

It was something that could not be done without absolute confidence in one’s own defensive abilities.

Horn glanced to the side.

Loki watched the battle with his arms folded, as if he had no intention of intervening.

[Are you planning on just watching?]

Loki opened his mouth, still keeping his gaze in front of him.

“If I intervene, Latun will be at a disadvantage.”

[…] Are you saying that the sum won’t match?]

Before even hearing the answer, Hoorn was convinced.

Latun and Loki are transcendentalists who have been active alone for a long time. Because fighting with someone was not well drawn.

But Loki shook his head as if that wasn’t the case.

“It’s not like that. That demon king, his energy is strange.”

[He is using a mixture of magic and divine power. That’s how normal demon lords fight.]

Loki clicked his tongue.

“Nana Latun don’t know that? Right now, that guy is using a very foreign power. There is definitely an aura that cannot be seen at your level. It is revealing itself little by little in an instant. But the time when that energy appears is quite irregular.”

Loki groaned and narrowed his brows.

“Is it similar to causality? It seems to be supplied from somewhere. Perhaps a ‘foreign existence’? But can such a thing happen?”

The incomprehensible words that keep popping out.

But Horn didn’t ask Loki what he was talking about.

To avoid interfering with Loki, who is seeing and analyzing something he cannot see.

After a while, when Loki’s mouth finally closed, Horn asked cautiously.

[How is it?]

“It’s not normal.”

Is that all you found out?

Horn frowned.

[I’ve never heard of a demon king with that level of power. I know that that’s not normal.]

“no. I don’t mean that. that guy… It has to do with the ‘existence of outer gates’.”

[Existence of foreign text? what is that?]

“ah! don’t you know It’s making a fuss outside now.”

Loki quickly summarized and explained the ‘existence of the outside world’. Then Horn narrowed his eyes.

[Are you kidding me? It makes no sense that such a thing exists in the world! You are more than a god… … .]

“Because he’s not our world… You are not wrong when you say that it makes no sense that such a thing exists in the world.”

Watching Loki smile and say, Horn tilted his head.

[Why do you look happy in my eyes? Are my eyes weird?]

“You’re fine.”

[…] What?]

“Now that Ragnarok has disappeared, an event that can blow away boredom has arrived. How could I not be happy?”

There is no other crazy person like this.

Horn felt that the rumors about Loki spreading throughout the universe were by no means exaggerated.

Unknowingly, Loki grabbed Horn’s arm as he tried to sneak away.

“Don’t fall away from me. If I don’t stop you, you’ll die just by touching the aftermath of the fight.”

[I am also a transcendentalist.]

“Say that only to four horned demons who are on the same level as you.”

In fact, Horn was well aware that he was the weakest in this space.

Even so, he tried to back down because he found out that Loki was more crazy than he thought, and because he knew that even if he died anyway, he would be resurrected due to the curse of the Lord of Calamity.

But Loki shook his head, looking at Horn with piercing eyes.

“I know your story. Still, it’s better not to be exposed to that power as much as possible. Even if I die, I will live, but I don’t know what state it will be. In the worst case, you may be in a state where you would rather be a puppet of a monarch.”

[…] How do you know that?]

“insight.”

[…] ?]

“Anyone can do it with eyes that can see and a head that can think. You seem to have neither.”

[You bastard… … .]

Loki smiled at Horn, who was about to burst into anger, and pointed to the location of the two Transcendentalists.

Latun and the Demon King had been maintaining a lull, having stopped fighting before they knew it.

The strange thing is that Latun is gradually reducing his power.

Loki smiled when Horn looked at it and wondered.

“Look at that friend. The information I got from pondering, he got from fighting. How great.”

[…] Is there a reason to reduce the power?]

“Yes, no matter how hard Latun tries, he won’t be able to kill the Demon King. That devil seems to be supplied with exactly that much power through the string connected to the ‘existence of the outer gate’.”

Horn opened his eyes wide.

[What did you mean by causality?]

“right.”

How could I have known that?

Even Loki muttered that not long after the fight between Latun and the Demon King began… … .

“It was a good choice for me not to intervene. If that was the case, that Demon King would have received as much strength as I gave, and if that was the case, we would have lost as we couldn’t move as one body.”

[Is that a reason to lose strength?]

“It doesn’t take away completely. It is in line with the demon king’s original power without the help of ‘existence from outside world’. Just lower it down there.”

[The fight will be long.]

“I think I can finish it with outside help.”

[External help… … .]

“The standard for the demon king to borrow power from the ‘existence of the outer gate’ is strictly based on divine power. I need someone who can kill the demon lord when Latun binds him without using divine power.”

Loki’s words are that he needs a mortal who can eventually kill the demon king.

It is a difficult condition indeed.

[Who is that?]

“You know, too.”

A human figure comes to mind.

[…] Martin?]

“He is the best.”

[He can’t come here.]

“I will come. No, you have to come. We are not the only ones who can get outside help.”

This is the demon world.

It is a place where there are many people who can help the devil, such as demons and demons.

“Sooner or later, demons will attack.”

[We have to fight them without divine power.]

“Unless you have done something like a fight where you thoroughly control your divine powers, your powers will be mixed with your spiritual powers subconsciously, and that will become the power of the demon king. It won’t be easy. Five?”

Suddenly, Loki pursed his lips and let out an exclamation.

[Why?]

“They say Martin has left.”

[Who did you hear that from?]

“My apostle.”

[Awesome. I can’t feel anything outside right now.]

“Me too. It’s just that the relationship between Hyun and I is a bit special.”

Horn’s expression brightened a little.

[So now we just have to hold out until Martin comes?]

“okay. I don’t use my divine power.”

[Unlike you, I am a demon who started from the bottom and rose to this position. If that’s the case, I’m sure. I will block those who come through the door, so don’t interfere and protect me from the demon king’s attack.]

Loki laughed at Horn, who was so confident.

“I heard that even dog poop is useful.”

[…] It’s a little different from what I’ve heard.]

“Focus. It is a start.”

The door was open.

* * *

The beach closest to the gate to the third demon realm.

Chow!

Pedro jumped out of the sea and landed in a place where superhumans were gathered.

“Did you check the gate?”

Pedro nodded at the Sword Master’s question.

“I found the right coordinates. The firebird was nowhere to be seen.”

“Looks like he ran away somewhere again. Anyway, one survival instinct is amazing.”

Pedro put his hand on the shoulder of the laughing swordsman.

“Thank you.”

“Stop saying thank you. It has to do with Martin. Of course he has to come. Are you going to say thank you to each and every superhuman gathered here?”

“It can’t be.”

Well over a hundred superhumans of Roden are now gathered here.

What is surprising is that each of them is at least a master, that is, a superhuman of 6 stars or higher.

Even though they only gave it four hours, it was only possible because they were in the Holy Kingdom in the first place.

‘Looking at the shape of the Earth, it’s not strange that superhumans gather in the Holy Land… … .’

But even so, the gathering of all the superhumans who were contacted by James proved how great Pedro’s reputation was.

“It certainly deserves to be called a great cheer.”

As Krishnar snickered beside him, Pedro let out a useless cough.

It was then that Elise came running with a bright expression on her face.

“I got a call from Kanghyun Hunter. It looks like Martin-nim came over here.”

“Five… I am very fortunate.”

Pedro expressed his gratitude to Ellis with a face that looked like he was about to burst into tears at any moment. It was only natural that Alice was taken aback by this.

The swordsman that was worse than stopped Pedro.

“It’s not that I don’t understand your feelings, but do it in moderation. Aren’t you embarrassed?”

“Um, you acted indecently.”

When Pedro calmed down, Ellis continued.

“Hunter Kanghyun said on the phone that he will tell Martin-nim the coordinates here. soon… … .”

Before she could finish her words, a phantasmagoric door opened in front of them, and Martin appeared from there.

Martin looked around the room with his eyes wide open as if he was surprised.

All the superhumans burst into laughter at the sight of him being a hero and not looking like a saint.

* * *

To avoid the eyes of the earthlings, I opened a fantasy door a little farther from the gate.

But about two minutes after I came over, I got a call from Kanghyun.

[I’ll give you the coordinates, go there. Everyone is waiting.]

I didn’t know who ‘everybody’ meant, but I made a fantasy door that led to the coordinates he gave me.

Because there is no reason for Kanghyun to deceive me.

However, I had no choice but to stop walking at the sight revealed beyond the fantasy gate.

‘Why are these people… … ?’

At first glance, more than a hundred people are looking at me.

Including the father, the enchanted demon, the swordsman, the full warrior, the executioner, and the sucker, all those who can be said to represent Roden’s strength are all gathered.

‘How the hell… … .’

How did these people know I was going to enter the gate and were waiting here. Even if it does, how do you know when to go?

I am standing in a daze in an incomprehensible scene, so come! and laughter erupts.

I guess I was kind of teased… Oddly enough, it doesn’t feel bad.

The feeling of being warm while tickling your chest.

‘Feel so good… … .’

Just a few hours ago, my father and I had that conversation.

– I guess I was just a little tired.

-That’s why I have a colleague. Sometimes, lean on your co-workers a bit.

At the time, I thought of such a conversation as just a formality and moved on.

But that wasn’t it.

‘Father was right.’

People who give me strength just by existing.

That was a colleague.
