177 8th Awakening Characteristics (1)

"Ah."

In a gloomy ritual, the sensation of a single beam of light exploded.

Magi, which had been depleted by forcibly twisting the crack, rose again at once.

Energy boiled throughout the body.

A complex thought was organized with a clearing sensation.

'Good.'

I looked down at both hands.

130 stats.

The effect was also different from before, as it was a stat with large changes on a 10 by 10 basis.

Because it did not absorb the demon's soul, it did not widen the deep side of the Great War and the passage that led to it, but the absolute amount of Magi itself grew so much that it did not know.

"Don't, Demon King?"

Reese looked at herself with an embarrassing look.

As I looked at her, a deep sigh flowed from the inside.

"Come back to being human."

"But…."

"Reese."

I called her low.

I opened my eyes thinly. Even Cont, who won't be able to dress up with Reese, is here.

"Don't keep me talking twice."

"I'll take orders."

Reese bows deeply.

Rain looked at her and smiled bitterly. Once you put out the dangerous fire.

'It's not a fundamental solution.'

Now, even if you follow orders, you will always return to the appearance of the devil again, unless you change your original appearance to look more beautiful.

Reese was a demon who could do anything to seduce him.

If you think you should be swayed by that dreadful tentacle again, your head will start to shrink, but it wasn't the only situation you care about right now.

Stabbing. Stabbing.

'Oops.'

Terrible sight because the tentacles are still watching as they enter the skin.

'I'd rather see something else at this hour.'

Rain lifted his gaze and opened the window as Reese returned to her original appearance.

'8th Awakening Characteristics.'

130 stats for scratching cracks.

As a result, there was no expectation of an open eighth awakening characteristic.

[8th Awakening Attribute: Grand Duke Slayer (Rank: SS)]

Effect: Use the spirit of Duke Demon to use Duke's power.

"This is…."

Two eyes widened.

The description was short, but the content was stunning.

The Grand Duke's power.

The power of the Seven Dukes, including Satan, was on the 'Abyss' side of the Great War.

Realm of Abyss that could not be used even at the time of the reign of Old Hell.

'You can use the power of Duke.'

It means it makes it possible to do things that were impossible even before the Earth came.

No wonder the tail of my mouth went up by itself.

'Based on the conditions, it seems clear that the character of the one who reaps the soul can also be used for the Grand Duke.'

It was only one possibility that the soul of the Grand Duke could be absorbed by the attributes of the one who reaped it.

But if you look at the conditions now, it looks like it can absorb the Grand Duke's soul with its properties.

'The Grand Duke's soul is most likely related to the second condition of the devil.'

From the pattern thus far, the awakening properties and the conditions for becoming a drinker were somewhat related.

Then the 8th Awakening will also be associated with the second condition of the devil.

'But.'

I distorted my expression.

The properties obtained from the eighth awakening were strong enough for both eyes to bend.

I got a clue of the devil's second condition.

'The problem is…….'

That condition.

The conditions that required the Grand Duke's soul, not other demons, were also burdensome as rainfall.

'No, I don't even know if the Duke was resurrected in the first place.'

In Lucifer's case, he could not interfere, knowing that he was resurrected.

"Hmm...."

I continued to think with an immersion.

'There's no way.'

Bringing Lucifer into the world, the only confirmed Duke who's resurrected now.

In fact, the seeds themselves were already sown.

A conflict between Satan and Lucifer's forces.

'The question is, will Lucifer come to this world himself because the conflict is escalating?'

It was unlikely that Lucifer would be able to come to this world by himself.

Satan's interception from the Demon King was just as stimulating as the demon's desire.

"Duke."

The problem did not end with it.

If Lucifer comes over, can we beat him now?

'I can't be sure.'

There was no hope to fight. I couldn't say, but there was also no guarantee that I could win 100%.

Lucifer belonged to a powerful axis, along with Satan and Baal, even among the Demon Dukes.

Ranked 3rd in the correct ranking.

Baal was the most powerful and beneath him was Satan, Lucifer.

1: 1 It was still hard to face Lucifer in a head-on battle.

'But.'

If Balok and Reese were to impose, there was a possibility.

"Hmm...."

I swallowed the immersion.

'There are too many variables.'

I didn't like it.

Not only was Lucifer unlikely to come to Earth alone without his powers, but he was also not convinced that he could create a 3: 1 sphere, including Reese and Valoc.

'If so….'

My head turned around at a fast pace.

The snow of rainfall shined sharply on my mind.

'Use Devil's Bridge.'

It's fishermen who aim.

Striking Lucifer's head clean while he fights the Devil Church.

'It's worth a try.'

I twisted my mouth.

Duke. I felt intuitively that the battle with those beings who had continued to deter me since I learned that Lucifer had resurrected through Balzahark.

It reminds me of hell. '

War against the Seven Dukes, which lasted a thousand years.

The memories of that long battle came to mind.

"My king, the transformation is over."

Beautiful voice in the ear.

The rain turned its head. There you see Reese returning to the new Kurosaki Glass.

'Oh, I'm happy.'

I feel relieved of a heavy burden just by the fact that Reese can turn into a human being.

Of course, it was the best thing to prevent the devil from returning to his appearance, but where is this?

Rain sat on nearby debris and asked.

"Let's start by listening to what happened after we got into Devil's Bridge."

The most important thing right now is how much she's spread to demonism about who she is.

"I haven't done anything yet. First of all, I didn't have time to inscribe the name of the Devil on the Devil's Church because I was more focused on regaining the original flesh that the King loved."

Glad to hear it.

Reese bows deeply and speaks.

"I'm sorry I couldn't get things done faster. At the earliest possible moment, the Devil's name will be given to the Devil Church..."

"Oh, first of all, I have something to say about that part."

Rain explained his relationship with the devil and his circumstances.

As the conversation progressed, Reese's face became pale.

"Sin, I'm sorry, my lord!"

He fell on his head and slammed his forehead to the ground.

She opened her mouth with a crying voice.

"Don't, I don't even know what the Demon King meant, but I did a stupid thing... handing information over to the enemy..."

"Of course, I don't want to move on from this."

However much I didn't know what I was doing, it was Reese's responsibility.

It was different from Balok.

She spent quite some time since coming to Earth and knew about the existence and identity of the rains.

Nevertheless, his willingness and opposition to do what he wanted was hard to move on.

"... I will accept any sin."

She said in a low voice, dropping her tears.

I sighed.

"Let's talk about this later."

"I must... pay for this with my body...!"

"No."

"I will return to my original body right now and serve the King with extreme care!"

"Don't."

"I put my pride as a Succubus Queen to the king...!"

"Don't, please."

Rain hastened to stop her from returning to her demonic appearance.

I was tired of talking.

"So, the Devil doesn't know anything about who I am?"

"……."

Silence sits down.

Reese bites the well with a restless expression and opens her mouth carefully.

"That's not true. Since the Book of Hell has already begun to spread inside the Demon Church.."

"A hell of a stand? What's that again?"

"Approximately a thousand years of battle in Old Heaven and Hell. because they thought the Seven Dukes were still in charge of Hell."

"A book."

Obviously, in order to imprint the presence of the Demon King on the Devil, it was best to spread information about the long war between the Grand Duke and the Demon King that took place in Old Hell.

After all, the victor of the war was the Demon King who defeated all seven Dukes.

"You couldn't have distributed the book openly."

"Yes, because they regarded the Seven Dukes as gods."

Then there was still a chance.

Rain shines sharply and asks.

"Where are you distributing that book?"

"I heard it's the Devil's Church in the Middle East."

"Ho."

Even information about the Devil's Branch.

'This isn't worse than I thought.'

I thought that Reese's involvement in Devil's Bridge was simply a damaging trawl.

However, just asking the Guardians for information about the Devil's Bridge branch, which they couldn't find with all their might, is a meaningful harvest.

'If you were going to do this, I should have let you in a little more.'

I thought it would not be bad to use her as an internal spy.

Within days, however, I shook my head.

'As long as Akiyama is dead, it will be hard too.'

She was able to act so quickly in Devil's Church because there was an avid follower, Akiyama.

Akiyama will not be able to move as it is today without a foundation.

'I should go to the Devil's Bridge branch in the Middle East first.'

There was enough reason to stop there to know how far the Book of Hell had been leaked.

"What happened to Kurosaki Glass?

"Now I'm fully conscious and asleep."

"Can you wake him up?"

"Yes, if the king commands."

Nod. It was a pleasure for Reese to take the initiative of the flesh.

Though I felt a little sympathy for Kurosaki Yuri, who was taken from me quietly, I was not wide enough to take care of the life of an unknown person.

"I have a life full of myself. '

I didn't have to live with Alec and care about each other's lives.

"What is Kurosaki Glass capable of?"

"Her ability?"

"Yes. I'm sure you have the power to borrow from me."

"Well…. I don't know about that. For now, I can't use that ability."

"That's your ability in Kurosaki Glass, Igor."

Reese nods.

The rains opened their eyes thin.

'You might need to care about this.'

Maybe it's time to take advantage of her power, even if it's not right now.

Demonic Church tried to summon Reese through her before the Guyanese system weakened due to the seeds of the crack.

In other words, if the system makes good use of her powers now weaker, it means that there is enough possibility of summoning the Grand Duke or beyond.

'Poor thing.'

Thinking of Kurosaki Glass, whose body was plundered by demons without any sin, it seemed like tears.

No wonder I have to awaken her consciousness to regain some degree of physical initiative.

"People have to help each other."

I stood up with an elongated nod.

I wanted to save an innocent woman from the devil's hand right now, but I couldn't afford it right now.

'Let's go.'

Demon Church branch in the Middle East.

It was urgent to find it now.
