The ruler of the disaster, no, actually, the blonde Yankee who ate the ruler enjoyed the good fortune of receiving the powerful bamboo spear I prepared through the portal he created for escape.

The sight of a huge explosion that shook the heavens and earth as a stone fell at great speed shattered the pot of disaster, and in the aftermath of the explosion, the fragments that flew high into the sky and poured down as a rain of flames that destroyed everything was truly an art itself.

“It was a good hot pot.”

Inside the empowered creature, which quickly evacuated to a safe place, I watched with satisfaction as the red-hot world sizzled like a stew with lots of red pepper paste on its melted surface.

I wondered if the landscape of this world would be exactly like the landscape of the surface of Venus that would appear if the clouds were removed.

“Seeing this for real… … .”

Indeed, the power of the bamboo spear I witnessed was truly amazing.

I’d done something like this before, but this was the first time I’d witnessed the power of a bamboo spear with my own eyes.

At that time, after using the bamboo spear in the world of goddesses and all, I moved straight to Nemesis through the [gate], so I regretfully did not see the great power of the bamboo spear.

A life form that could survive there never existed in my common sense.

“Have you done it?”

The manager, who heard my out of habit, glanced at me with an uncomfortable expression, and Kang Jin-hyeok coughed violently as if possessed. But I neatly ignored their reaction.

“… … No, wouldn’t it be rather a miracle if he survived after being hit by that?”

The word “resurrection spell” is just an element for stimulation that can only be used in old Japanese comics, but it cannot actually perform a miracle of reviving the dead.

Moreover, the resurrection spell itself had no effect, after I had already confirmed that the wave of Hive consciousness emitted by the calamity had completely disappeared.

“If he comes out alive, you can’t help but think that a high-ranking man really wrote a resurrection spell for him.”

The manager looked at me like a monster and continued talking.

“Anyway, did you really have to kill that guy? What about the subordinates you worked hard to create? Aren’t you dead?”

I shrugged at him.

“Sir, those children lay eggs on the bodies of living creatures. To keep things clean, you have to burn them all. Well, it’s a corps, so if you need it, you can just pull it out again.”

“That’s really great… … .”

It is the wisest choice a ruler can make to boldly throw away what is thrown away for the sake of neat work. Giving up the troops I created here doesn’t mean that the Legion’s strength will suffer a serious blow.

The administrator decided to put in a request for the identity of the blonde Yankee, so there is no need for me to take risks and capture him alive to find out information.

“I had no intention of saving him in the first place.”

The guy who set the Legion into a trap for my strength didn’t need any petty mercy at all.

“Okay, everyone has worked hard, so let’s go home now.”

I collected a lot of objects to add to the corps, and I also got a lot of information, so it was time to take a break while reorganizing for the time being.

After completing all the tasks, I opened the portal and came back to the original world. In the landscape that should have been full of disasters, there were suddenly ruined territory of the demon realm.

“… … What else is this?”

No, why did these demons appear here again?

[Jiwoo, you’re back. How did things go well?]

After a while, the person who cultivated mugwort in these demon realms with a very good harvest appeared and welcomed my return with a somewhat sad smile.

The old manager looked closely at his apostle, who looked very lethargic, and whispered very carefully to me so that he wouldn’t hear.

“Erasing… … .”

“Yes.”

“That guy… … You’re not even a guy who likes freebies, so why are you bald?”

Elder, this is all because of that strange potion you sold for points… … .

* * *

Those who wanted to meet the ruler of the Legion before had to wait a long time in a strange world full of mysterious alien buildings and colonies of the Legion.

The vassal of a high-ranking demon tribe, who had been staring blankly at the sky today, caught a huge door opening in the sky full of turbid air and a huge whale leaping out with a loud roar.

“Master, it seems that the ruler of the legion has returned.”

The high-ranking demon, who was sitting in a chair in a house without an owner, with her eyes closed, slowly nodded her head, revealing her race’s unique cold purple eyes to the world.

“It’s time to meet him.”

Flash-!

The moment the high-ranking demon spoke, the [gate] opened with a bright light in the room, and a man with sparkling golden eyes slowly walked out.

As their gazes collided in the air, along with a heavy silence, the deadly life spewing out from the ruler of the corps landed all over the place, as if pressing down on their shoulders.

“Sigh… … !”

A dull moan broke the silence.

The high-ranking demon calmly endured the gaze of the ruler who was glaring at him, but the vassal next to him felt as if his heart was frozen by the death, and it became difficult to breathe for a moment.

‘The author’s power… … I don’t know what it is, but it’s really not normal.’

Visitors who witnessed the powerful force emitted by Han Ji-woo right in front of their noses had no choice but to be nervous without realizing it.

“Nice to meet you, Commander of the Corps. I… … .”

“What is this dog-bone-like demon who entered someone else’s house without permission?”

In the silence broken by the vassal, the high-ranking demon calmly began to introduce himself, and the ruler of the corps even started swearing.

Parts-tsutsu-!

An intense golden aura rose from Han Ji-woo, and at the same time, unusual sparks began to rise in all directions.

When he read the harbinger of his mind-destroying secret skill, [Rainbow], for the first time, the expression of intense urgency was revealed on the expression of the demon visitor, who had maintained his composure.

“No wait, I want to talk to you… … .”

The high-ranking demon raised both hands as if holding a pistol in front of him, revealing that he had no will to fight.

However, the ruler of this corps was rather strange if he did not get angry with the demons who entered his room without permission.

“For now, I don’t know.”

A fishy smile appeared on Han Ji-woo’s lips.

“If you enter someone else’s house without permission, that’s a robbery.”

“… … We didn’t steal anything. I didn’t come here to fight you, so the first thing to do is to reap that power… … .”

“It means that a robber can be beaten once.”

“under… … I can’t help it.”

Even though Han Ji-woo saw that he had no intention of responding, he still did not reap his strength at all, and the high-ranking demon visitor eventually had to harden his expression and raise his magic power to prepare for the opponent’s attack.

The dark magic that began to flow from the body of the high-ranking demon gradually began to push away Han Ji-woo’s golden power that dominated the surrounding space.

Tsutsutsut-!

The intense sparks and black mana emanating from their bodies brought an excessive load of power to the narrow interior.

When the areas dominated by magical power and those dominated by mental power overlapped each other, sparks spread like a spider’s web in the room, making it an instant situation.

‘this… … If I don’t, I’ll die like this!’

The vassal of a high-ranking demon tribe caught in the gap was really about to die.

He tried to pull out all the power he had to push back the lord’s magical power and that unknown golden power, but he was not a strong type, so there was a limit to pushing away.

When the high-ranking demon tribe noticed this fact and exerted more strength, the power of Han Ji-woo, who dominated the vassal’s surroundings, was noticeably pushed aside.

“Stay out of your way.”

“… … Okay. Lord.”

When his master bought time, the vassal hurriedly opened the [gate] and escaped, and Han Ji-woo, who saw this, began to draw out additional strength with a rather interesting expression.

“Baby, how strong are you?”

If the mental power combined with the main body and the linked output was at a level where it was not pushed at all in the power contest, no matter how you look at it, this child’s power was at least the devil’s level.

“Let’s see how long you last?”

However, soon the voice of a woman who came through the [gate] echoed through the room, and their terrifying power, which could kill anything they touched with a single shot, eventually prevented a collision.

“… … father?”

With her mouth wide open, the woman stared alternately at the high-ranking demon and the ruler of the corps, who were sweating profusely in a contest of strength.

She didn’t say anything else, but from that gaze, it was as if the words ‘what the hell are you guys doing?’ popped into my head.

“What, are you Maria’s father?”

* * *

The two people, no, the two demons just looked at each other without saying anything.

“… … Well.”

… … The situation is a bit strange even to describe them as two demons, but Maria is only a demon in appearance, but in fact, she was an entity of the legion that I remodeled in the early days.

“… … Lord, could you give me a moment?”

The high-ranking Demon Tribe, who had trespassed on my house, saying that he had come to visit me on an important business, bowed his head slightly to me and asked for a favor.

“When did you bastard say that you saw me and start talking nonsense right from the beginning?”

“… … .”

“Share the talk. See me when you’re done.”

I was in a state of exhaustion because I had temporarily used a large amount of power to compete with that demon, and I had traveled quite a distance in the first place. So I just sat down on the chair that was left nearby and buried myself deeply.

“I’m tired, I’ll come back… … .”

I didn’t bother to leave my seat for the meeting with those demons, and they didn’t care at all that I was watching them either.

Well, what do these fathers and daughters have to talk about after seeing each other for the first time in a while? The obvious development of asking how each other has been, whether they were kidnapped and bullied by me, asking after each other’s regards… … .

“… … father.”

“I am not your father. Don’t you know that too well?”

“… … .”

“This is just the shell of a demon.”

It wasn’t the kind of obvious development I thought.

Listening to Maria’s conversation with a high-ranking demon with the power of a demon king, I felt intense interest, as if watching a morning drama with all the stimulating elements.

So, I closed my eyes, but instead activated my ESP ability and began to focus on the conversation by observing their expressions.

“… … You never told me what the essence of that shell was.”

“I’m sorry, but I had every reason for that.”

“Yes, but you introduced me to others as your daughter.”

“… … It was a dangerous story if you found out. If, by any chance, someone knew what my true nature was, your life would be in danger… … However, now you are free from the bondage of the Demon God.”

I almost laughed out loud when I heard the story. I thought it was blood, but it turns out that the essence contained in it is the soul of a completely different being?

Listening to it quietly, the story of these demons really didn’t have a drama aired in the morning. I’ve seen quite a few dramas in which an accident occurs, and each other’s body changes, and such absurd developments appear.

No, wait a minute, I think I’m included in the main characters of that absurd drama?

“… … .”

I hope that kid… … ?

When I opened my eyes again because I felt something strange, the demon, the only shell of which was Maria’s father, calmly opened his mouth.

“My essence is the same as the ruler of that legion.”

“… … Yes?”

“In the previous episode, I… … .”

Saying that, the high-ranking demon turned his head towards me, and I looked at the truth in his purple eyes.

He knew me, and for some reason I had a strange feeling that I knew him. No, they must have met each other before.

“… … He was a player of Earth.”

It was the moment when another victim of the Bokbulbok power appeared.
