Liberation (1)

"You betrayed me...?"

Nietzsche murmured in disbelief.

The two must have had a bad relationship with Jinhyuk.

They were never meant to be together.

so that.

For Nietzsche, the situation now had no choice but to be dismayed.

"Sorry. I had to stick to the stronger side to survive. That's what I was thinking of."

"Don't be too sad. We've always been driven by our interests."

Melena, who had already been with Jinhyuk for a long time, and Tristan, who joined later, shrugged as if it was natural.

Even if it's not because of the stigma of the soul.

When it comes to muddy fights, they were two people who knew which side had an advantage.

Whether it's the leader of the demons.

Even the great pure-blood Jinjos.

Does not matter.

Because the last one to survive has already been decided.

"Dare you these things hit the back of my head? I must have forgotten how terrifying this body is. I can make both of them rot alive and rotten."

"Hmm. Isn't it funny if someone who was trying to run away without a tail would say something like that?"

This time, Jinhyuk intervened in Nietzsche's silly threats.

"you !"

"Ah. Don't be angry. If you come and blush ugly now, your blood pressure will only rise. Even if you die, you will have to die by my sword. Doesn't the head of Myungsaekyi Majin want to go to high blood pressure?"

Jinhyuk shrugged his shoulders with a smirk.

Then Nietzsche's face contorted even worse.

"Cute! Do you think I'm going to be beaten by you!"

"Yeah. I think so. Even if I don't, I'm going to show you what an old man attack is."

Nietzsche's mana is being used to the limit to maintain blackness.

This is enough, even if the ability is sealed due to nihilism, it is worth trying.

But, only one thing.

There was a gate that had to be crossed to achieve the copy condition.

'I should have removed the Demon King attached to him... .'

7th place in the demon world. Hesimodium.

One of the 10 Demon Kings in the demon world, currently sponsoring Nietzsche.

If he doesn't give up on Nietzsche until the very end and helps him, things can get in trouble.

then.

'I can only help you realize that throwing away is better than sponsoring.'

Jinhyuk provoked the opponent more aggressively.

"I was curious about how confident he was even though he signed a contract with one of the weakest and mediocre Demon Kings. I heard a bit about it, but was Hesimodium the last among the 10 Demon Kings? It seems to me..."

Then at that very moment.

[The demon world's divinity is greatly enraged!]

[Special ability 'Partial Reincarnation' is activated!]

kukuku kuk kook!

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"

Nietzsche's eyes were covered with whites.

There was blood foam in his mouth. Thick veins twitched violently on the skin.

My whole body trembled like an aspen.

Nietzsche is no longer Nietzsche.

The spirit of the Demon King already resides in that body.

To be precise, it should be said that it is close to possession through a medium, not the manifestation of the body.

The screams filled with pain, which had continued for a long time, disappeared like a lie after a certain moment.

"Ugh... I don't always like what's inside a human shell."

Hesimodium looked at his hands and feet with dry eyes.

But it was only for a short time.

"This body made me feel uncomfortable, so I won't be able to die comfortably."

Red liquid dripped from his long, grown nails.

Naturally, it is a monster that cannot be defeated even if it is in the best condition.

of course.

This one is also thinking about it.

"Beriel. I know everything you're looking at. Why don't you just pretend you know?"

Jinhyuk quietly opened his mouth.

OK.

[Hmm. okay. what are you watching Things are getting pretty interesting, so I'm just fetching wine from my personal shed for a while.]

As if waiting, a reaction appeared.

Anyway, this guy has a good age.

I'm gambling with the rest of my life.

kukuku kuk kook!

Jinhyuk looked at Hesimodium, which was emitting black energy from his whole body.

It is truly a terribly ignorant demonic energy.

[If you do this, you will die.]

"Yeah, I guess."

Even if they borrowed Nietzsche's body, the opponent was the Demon King.

As long as his abilities are sealed, he will die instantly with just one gesture.

"So, shouldn't I have a strong supporter to protect me?"

Jinhyuk glanced at the air.

[Oh. should i help? Why?]

Why?

That's it... .

"If you are stronger than Hesimodium, there is no reason to avoid this fight. Oh, of course, if you are pushed out of the ranks you may not fight."

[So. If I don't help, I'm afraid I won't even make eye contact because I'm inferior to that idiot Demon King. After all, isn't it that I am the most cowardly and weakest person in the demon world?]

Well .

I didn't say it that far.

The intention seems to have been conveyed properly.

"Anyway, while fighting that guy today, I felt once again how good a job the Black Apostle is. It makes me think that the 3rd job change wouldn't be bad if it was not a barrier company, but something else."

[Within four would you like to help? He, is that really true?]

"Yeah. I don't think so."

[really? Can I swear by those words?]

"You don't believe me?"

[You have to give me faith to believe it! As if I was just looking at it like I've been doing it many times before!]

"I'll put a collateral this time. What do you think of that guy over there?"

Jinhyuk's fingertips turned to Cheon Yoosung.

[Swordsmanship is also quite good. I don't have a problem with my hands. You seem to fit well with us in many ways.]

Beliel nodded.

It was a look that I liked quite a bit.

great.

caught

"That's right. As you can see, he's a pretty smart kid. Of course, if he changes his job to a Black Apostle. Can't he become a pretty good Demon Clan?

He wins Beliel's favor on the condition of passing the heavenly planet.

[Yeah, that's true, but... .]

"Huh? He's coming. Hurry up. We don't have time any more! If I die, buying it or anything else is meaningless."

Jinhyuk hurriedly pointed to Hesimodium.

There seemed to be less than a few seconds of time remaining, as if he was about to run away at any moment.

finally.

[Damn it. I get it. I'll help you first. Don't forget your appointment later.]

Beriel came out.

Moment.

creepy

There was a chill that was so cold that it gave me goosebumps.

Pachi rule!

A silver-haired man appeared as he ripped the space with flashy sparks.

Aaaaaaaaaaah!

Red nails were blocked in the air.

no.

Rather, Hesimodium, who had attacked, could not withstand the shock and retreated back.

"Be... Riel?"

Hesimodium's pupils shook rapidly.

It is not a partial manifestation through possession.

Direct descent of the body.

It was also moved directly by the Demon King, which corresponds to the highest divinity.

"I just sacrificed 100,000 pyeong of forest and 3 castles in my estate."

choice is forced.

He has already made an investment that he cannot back down... .

"This man is my apostle. So go away."

Fight until either side is destroyed.

Or don't curl your tail.

"Shit."

Hisinth bit his fangs to break them.

I thought Nietzsche and others would still do their job well.

"Those idiots are of no help."

In particular, as the Nordic divinities and the Demon King suddenly appeared, the tide turned completely.

But the biggest problem is .

The point is that the enemies you face in front of you are much more difficult than expected.

Puff puff pop!

Whoops!

A thunderstorm made by lightning raged over and over again, but Elise narrowed the distance without blinking an eye.

Clearly, it is far short of its heyday.

But why?

Why does it feel more difficult than it was then?

[Hisynth activates 'bastness lightning'!]

A blue lightning flashed through the spear he was holding.

At the same time, an invisible stab was detonated.

Paang!

The tip of the spear disappeared, causing a sonic boom.

However.

Kaga Gaga!

Like lightning, Elise pulled out the rapier from her waist and changed the orbit of the spear.

The deviated spear was nailed to the ground.

Hisinth's eyebrows curve backwards.

"...when did you start using the rapier?"

"I learned it a while ago."

"How long ago did you learn that? Maybe from that person?"

" "

Alice neither affirmed nor denied.

"I hope it was true."

The headmaster of Ataraxia who had such a high and lofty stature.

Did you learn something from mere humans?

If I told anyone else, I would never have believed it.

It was because he changed his belief that he would never use a weapon under any circumstances.

"What the hell is that guy doing that? It's not just a rapier. You know? No matter how much you fight against beings on the 50th floor, it's hard to guarantee your life, right?"

so that.

I had no choice but to ask.

What kind of existence as Jinhyuk Kang is to Alice.

And whether it's worth it.

Alice's red lips slowly opened up.

"The person who made it possible to live again."

A precious person who gave new hope to himself who had given up everything and waited for him to die.

The person who gave me a reason to live a new life after a long nightmare.

"It doesn't matter what comes to the 50th floor."

If you die... It doesn't matter though.

Even if it becomes a handful of ashes and disappears, it's okay.

If we could be together until the last moment... .

Because that was enough.

'Ataraxia'.

The rapier drew 7 circles.

The drawn circles were gradually cut away, and they began to change into colorful patterns.

"A red a red rose?"

Hisinth stared blankly at the drawn roses.

one song one song.

Roses blooming along the air created a breathtaking sight.

['Blood Rose' is activated!]

This is her own formula that Alice first created.

It is a new wave that symbolizes Ataraxia.

"Did you think that you could deal with me with something impatient?"

Hysynth swung his spear against him.

The spear was divided into dozens, leaving a remnant.

No matter how absurd it seems. All expressions must be supported by a certain amount of experience and years.

It's not just something that can be completed overnight!

sword and spear.

The expression created by the two arms stretched forward.

and.

The moment when two eclipses collide.

Pagak!

The tip of his spear became powder and began to scatter.

"Ah ."

A sense of emptiness and hopelessness permeated the brief sigh.

An area of overwhelming talent that requires neither effort nor experience.

The strongest housekeeper who crushed all the headmasters.

Jinjo. Alice von Ataraxia.

Over time, it was forgotten.

What an absurd monster that existence is.
