Chapter 224: If you need an explanation (2)

Ranked 63rd.

Demon King, Andras.

The owl-headed demon opened its beak.

You said I am a bastard of the Demon World.

It was definitely an insult.

But Andras didnt react like he usually would.

Uncharacteristic of him who was prone to destruction, he just looked at the object in front of him with interest.

It was only natural.

He was facing the great evil, Gluttony of the Seven Deadly Sins.

Gluttony mocked.

You, self-proclaimed demon king.

!

Andras wasnt the one who was surprised.

The demon army commanders under Andras were stunned.

Not only did Gluttony insult him by calling him the bastard of the Demon World, but he also insulted his throne.

Even if he was the great evil, wasnt that too much?

But once again, Andras wasnt angry.

He just said dryly.

That is indeed accurate.

!!!

How could he admit such a ridiculous remark?

The demon army commanders looked confused.

In contrast, the corners of the Gluttonys mouth turned towards the sky.

You know your place? You are a bastard. It means that you were not born out of evil like me and my foolish brothers, nor you were born with enormous power like the high-ranking demon kings, so youre a half-assed being.

Andras remained silent.

Well, a great evil is a great evil.

After Akshans resurrection.

Andras felt his limitations acutely.

Now that the Arcana Continent was on the verge of extinction.

The demon kings, including him, were unable to do anything about Akshan, the last survivor. In the midst of all this, Gluttony came to him.

However, I will tell you how to overcome that bastard blood.

With the most tempting offer.

Gluttony.

As he had said himself, he was a great evil.

He was an evil born out of evil itself.

Even though Andras could see through the minds of other demon kings to some extent.

It was not easy to see through that pure evil.

Andras asked again.

Do you think I will trust your words?

Gluttony laughed.

You are free to believe or not. But I assure you that there is nothing to lose by listening. The vile blood of the Demon World works that way. If you swallow deeper evil, you will be able to overcome it.

Deeper evil, you said.

The thinness and thickness of their flowing blood might vary, but the same demons blood was flowing through him

So he could understand what Gluttony was saying.

Werent they the ones who got a boost from the negative energy?

Andras beak opened.

Thats a funny story, great evil.

Are you scared?

Ive killed everything on this continent. I built mountains out of dead bodies and formed rivers with their blood. Those who resisted me were torn to pieces and thrown to feed animals, and those who barely survived were trampled and then killed.

Oh my.

Are there evil deeds that I could not do?

Gluttony laughed as expected.

Of course.

What is it?

You havent seen it yet, have you?

Seen what?

That past.

The moment Gluttony, who had been grinning the whole time, mentioned the past.

The expression on his face changed.

Andras could tell.

Really.

In that past.

There must be something unusual buried.

So he said.

I see, so that past is the reason you came to me.

Yes, I intend to use you as bait to uncover the past.

Bait, you said.

In other words, I will throw you away to reveal the past. If you can face the past and survive Maybe you will be reborn as a true demon king. As you know, there has been a vacancy, right?

The vacancy he was referring to must be Gamigins seat.

Do you think I would accept that offer?

Gluttony shrugged his shoulders.

Do you know why bastards are called bastards?

?

Theyre called bastards because theyre messy and overflowing.

Pure evil.

He knew his temper very well.

He felt like he was playing in the palm of his hand.

However, it was also an offer he couldnt refuse.

Soon, Andras replied.

I will accept the offer.

Maybe because youre an owl, you have a mind of a bird.

So what is the past that I need to reveal?

If the past was that great.

He thought there must be a complicated story involved.

But that wasnt the case.

Gluttony just spewed out one word.

Claudie, thats all.

?

That one word will shake the world.

*

Crystal Hall.

As befitting the space of the Mage Tower, its structure was very fantasy-like.

On the surface, it simply looked like a fancy circular space.

There is a special space on the other side connected by the door.

Reversal magic Do you know something, Miss Klee?!

Yes? How would I know what it is?

Skilled mages.

S-Senior Banglet, do you know what it is?

No. Ive never heard of it before!

How about we stay quiet and concentrate, Senior Bensch William?

Hup.

All the senior mages, including Matis and Bensch.

I never thought of this.

Even the elder mage, Yugwid.

It seemed everyone couldnt guess it so easily.

It was the reaction I expected.

The only people who knew about the reversal magic,

It was only me, Marcelo, and that sly cat.

I opened my mouth.

Reversal magic, its founder is me.

Going straight for the fastball from the first sentence.

I was the one who said it, but I wondered if there was ever a fastball this straightforward. However, depending on who said it and how, those words could mean different things.

I continued speaking amidst the pouring concentrated gazes.

Reversal magic. The principle is truly simple. Exploration, interference, manifestation. The magic structure is simply listed in reverse order. Yes. The object of exploration for reversal magic is magic that has already been manifested, and the interference process is to reverse it to its original state.

Instead of decreasing, the murmur grew louder.

C-Chief Lee seems to speak of it very easily.

Is such a manifestation really possible?

No, thats not a matter of manifestation ability!

Yeah, its not a matter of manifestation.

It was well-wrapped and gold-painted.

I had come to recognize it, too.

Grandfels talent is truly tremendous.

As the founder of reversal magic, I would affirm this.

No matter how kindly I explain reversal magic, no matter how many people understand its structure. There was not a single person who could manifest reversal magic in real life.

To put it simply.

Reversal magic was only for Grandfel.

Knowing that fact, I spoke calmly.

I will not hope that you can manifest it yourself.

It might sound like I was aggravating them, but I was being sincere.

It is enough for you to understand.

Even if I said that.

The atmosphere didnt easily subside.

You have to know to truly be able to see.

The more familiar you were with magic knowledge.

The more shocking the reversal magic was.

Thats why Grandfel is being so generous.

Grandfels kindness sometimes manifested itself in strange directions. There was no way our benevolent Grandfel would turn away from the audience who were in shock and fear from the introduction alone.

I made a declaration.

But dont worry/

?

Until you understand reversal magic.

!

The regular conference wont end.

Wait a minute.

The class wont end until they understand?

Do you really think thats for the sake of the audience, Grandfel?

It made me realize once again.

Grandpel, you should never be in the profession of teaching anyone.

Even the National Professors Association would be astounded.

You are making a terrible declaration right now!

More importantly.

What do you want me to do?

This sucks.

I managed to avoid dying out of shame, but death from overworking was waiting for me.

But I was mistaken.

Suddenly, I heard a voice.

What is this?

The sound of the smartphone vibrated across Crystal Hall.

I understood them so I could tell.

The players probably couldnt focus on my explanation of the reversal magic.

They wouldnt have understood what I was talking about.

Ill keep my word.

Because I generously said I could understand them.

I understood what it meant to check smartphone notifications during a conference.

By the way, the conversation I heard was unusual.

Its an emergency update?

D-Demon king? All of a sudden?!

No, wait a minute. Its not a rupture, its an updated region?

Emergency update

Demon king.

Added non-rupture areas.

It was not for no reason that the vibration went off all at once.

But until that point.

Accidents could follow.

What kind of race were the demons?

With Akshans resurrection.

I knew that the effectiveness of Gamigins disposal wouldnt last forever.

But after hearing what followed, I realized.

Avoiding shame is an exercise in futility.!

They say the demon king is looking for someone?

Looking for someone? A player? Or an Arcanain?

Wait a minute, Im sure

One word pieced my eardrums.

Claudie! They said Claudie!

My mind went blank.

Cllaaaaaaauuudiiiee?!

My name

No, why does that name come up there!!
