Why I Quit Being the Demon King

Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 302

68. Operating the Tower of Babel (2)

Regin shrugged and held out one of the gifts.

“This looks like a sword.”

What Regin was holding was long like a stick and weighed quite a bit.

Zeke opened the package. It was a sword, just as Regin expected.

But in Zeke’s eyes, it felt more like an accessory than a sword.

The blade was so thin

that it seemed difficult to pierce armor, and the jewel-encrusted blade was overly delicate.

“Where can I use something like this?”

“100 gold seems like enough money

.”

“Money is of no use now. “You guys have all grown up too.”

“Well, it’s not like I’m going to school anymore.”

“therefore.”

It was the vassals’ responsibility to organize the boxes.

The three knights, Jushak in red, Actor in silver, and Katran,

were busy making a list of gifts.

Since I had received a gift, I had no choice but to repay it with words.

It was fortunate that Katran, who came from a long-established family, was familiar with this type of work.

“Besides, are you feeling better now?”

Zeke put his sword upright and asked Regin:

“Thanks to you, brother. When do you plan to start training? You will become stronger. “More than my brother.”

“Okay, okay, we should start soon.”

Zeke smiled and scratched his cheek.

In fact, the source of Zeke’s power came naturally while standing next to the Demon King and fighting his Demon Spiritual Energy.

Based on that power, he obtained ancient divine beasts called Suzaku and Blue Dragon and became explosively stronger.

In other words, there was virtually no power worth passing on to Regin.

In fact, training was just a remark thrown out to prevent him from recklessly attacking Deus.

While Zeke was thinking of various ideas, one fact suddenly occurred to him.

Zeke raised his hand and caressed his left eye.

There was the Demon King’s Eye Eye, which had the Demon Spiritual Energy as its source.

I didn’t know how to do that yet, but I thought there might be a way to increase Regin’s power if I used this matter.

At that time, a knocking sound was heard on the lobby door.

Then, the butler of the White Magpie Hall came inside.

He said, bowing his head to Zeke.

“Zeek, a guest has come to visit.”

“customer? “Who is it?”

“They are Zodiac Knights.”

“Ah, Mr. Cadenza and Mr. Oridon?”

“It’s just as you expected.”

“I’ll go out right away.

“They are in the garden now.” Regin followed Zeke as he walked at a leisurely pace.

“I’m going with you too.”

“It’s been a while.”

“This is the first time since we fought in Terra End, right?”

Oridon and Zeke held hands.

Now Oridon has become a middle-aged warrior. He looked older because he had a beard.

Zeke then shook hands with Cadenza.

“Really, Zeke, my relationship with you has many ups and downs.”

“This is a relationship that has continued thanks to the generosity of these two people as seniors in my life

. “More than anything, thank you for taking such good care of Regin.”

“Because he is an outstanding warrior.”

Regin, who was nearby, looked under his nose.

Oridon said.

“Instead of doing this here, let’s go out and have a drink. “It’s not right to make a fuss in the palace.”

Everyone said their approval and took their seats.

Cadenza and Oridon could not believe that Zeke was sitting across from them. I have

watched him grow since childhood

, and I was with him as a comrade in arms during the war against the Demon Lord.

Since we became enemies and took different paths for a long time, I thought we would never fight together again.

But now, we are having a drink in one place.

Oridon shouted energetically.

“Cheers to the reunion of old comrades!”

“Cheers!”

Zeke smiled and accepted the glass.

“I tried to climb Neuekahn several times, but I couldn’t.”

Oridon

opened his mouth, emptying half of his glass.

“Because we were hostile to each other at the time.”

“That too… but honestly, I was a little scared. Facing the truth. I was worried that you had truly become corrupted. Rather, if he was simply being falsely accused, he would have to clear the false accusation somehow, but from the Zodiac Knight’s perspective, it is not easy to break the Holy Hwangcheong’s policy.”

“I understand.”

“Don’t say it so easily. “My hair was about to fall out.”

“Now that I think about it, it seems like I’m missing something. “It’s still on the side, though.”

“shut up. “It’s just that my forehead has become a little wider than the width of my heart.”

The cadenza took over the baton of conversation.

“Now that I think about it, during the last battle in Terra End, Oridon said something strange. “Zeek’s abilities are not comparable to the past.”

“Because I trained hard.”

“If things could be resolved with those few words, there would be no weak knights in the world.”

“Then I’ll chalk it up to you working harder.”

“Now, let’s not talk about whether we are strong or weak in this area. Rather, what do you plan to do now? “It seems like the Seonghwangcheong wants to appoint you as Zodiac Knight.”

“I think I know that he is the warrior in the world who has heard the most Zodiac Knight recommendations.”

“He is also the hero who rejected me the most.”

Regin said to Zeke.

“Why don’t you accept it? “I think it would be cool to see my brother and

I flying the Zodiac Knight flag side by side.”

Cadenza also nodded and offered words of encouragement.

“The Zodiac Knights are humanity’s strongest knight division. “Where else could a knight as powerful as Zeke be fit to be a Zodiac Knight?”

“I agree with the statement that humanity is the strongest, but… who do you plan to fight with in the future?”

“You are asking the obvious. “He is the devil.”

“But didn’t you just sign a peace treaty with the Demon King?”

“It’s temporary.”

“If hostility stops and time passes, won’t peace come?”

At Zeke’s words, Cadenza firmly shook his head.

“It is impossible to coexist with demons.”

“Why?”

“Because they are targeting no man’s land. Zeke. “You shouldn’t confuse good and evil just because you hung out with ‘that guy’ for a long time.”

“What if the demons don’t want human land?”

“That can’t happen.”

“In the beginning, the demons attacked the human world in search of a sunken land. But now the sun is shining well in the demon world.”

“It

looks like it’s causing trouble because too much sun is shining on it.” “Unseen grass is growing, and they are taking away the land where the crops of the devil’s world could grow.”

“Then it’s actually a good opportunity.

We must attack the demon world right now. “Once those demons have fully adapted to the old world, it won’t be easy to deal with them.”

“How about Regin? Will the Verde royal family move? “Isn’t the Verde Kingdom located closest to the demons’ territory now?”

The two Zodiac Knights, Cadenza and Oridon, looked like they were going to start a war at any moment.

But Regin and Zeke could not follow his words.

The demon king now was none other than Mi

Go.

Regin said.

“It’s impossible now. There are more than one facility that has been destroyed due to the fall of the Joseon Continent. “Just restoring it is no ordinary task.”

“Well, it hasn’t been long since there was a major tectonic shift. “I wonder if they signed a non-aggression pact with the demon world.”

Cadenza lamented while listening to Oridon’s story.

“God gave us this opportunity, but we are unable to do anything because we are insensitive. “If something like this

had happened 10 years later, we would have been able to advance to the south with the Zero Generation.”

The only thought in Cadenza’s mind was destroying the demons.

Naturally, Zeke soon lost interest in the conversation as all his thoughts stopped at that.

We had a few more drinks and parted ways.

The invitation to attend Zodiac Night was passed off with laughter.

I met up again with friends I had lost a long time ago, but why did what come to mind at this moment

was the person I was with only recently?

It’s much more enjoyable to see him sitting at the bar table without saying a word, flipping through a newspaper.

“Aren’t you going to open the door?”

Yulgeum sat next to Deus, who was taking a nap on the beach bench.

“Are you here?”

“Isn’t the store open?”

“There is no chef.”

“You just have to hire him.”

“Who are you calling? “Ordinary people can’t

do that.”

“There is at least a restaurant in Rosdia. “You can just bring it from there.”

“it’s okay. It’s okay to be quiet. “I can enjoy this beautiful beach all by myself.”

“lie. “All I did was take a nap for a few days.”

“There are many ways to have fun. “More than that, why have you been so busy these past few days?”

“Even if you look like this, it’s Jin Geum-yong.”

“Are you still doing it? “I thought you got kicked out for hanging out here with Kamael every day

.”

“Anyway, you.”

“Now that I think about it, I can’t see Camael and Raguel either.”

“You notice it quickly.”

“Have you given an oracle or something?”

“no. Be quiet. “Like a lie.”

“Don’t you need to meet God? “It looks really strange.”

“If he doesn’t come forward, it means it’s not worth it.”

“Raguel has become corrupted? Kamael becomes unemployed.”

“Raguel was imprisoned by Gabriel, and

Babel, which Kamael guarded, was placed under management again. “Then that’s it.”

“It feels comfortable.”

“Please tell me you have some free time.”

“Anyway, business is closed for the time being.”

“Until Zeke comes back?”

” for now.”

“Will he really come back? I think Regin won’t come back unless he gives up his revenge. “It will take a very long time.”

“Well, at the latest, it will come after Regin dies. “Do you think it will take 100 years?”

“Zeke is human.”

“Is he?”

“You’re human. “It has a lifespan.”

“Are you sure? “Even the reaper can’t take him away.”

“You will get old. Cell activity will decrease and tissue activity will stop. Even if you don’t die, it will be the same as death.”

” is it?”

“100 years? No matter how much he has transcended humans, as long as he is still human… Sariel, the Four Heavenly Masters, will personally come to collect his soul.”

“You just have to stop being a human before then.”

“Would Zeke want to do that?”

“I have to convince you. “But why are you suddenly talking about Zeke dying in an unfortunate way?”

“After seeing something unexpected.”

” What?”

Yulgeum swept her face as if washing her face.

After a long sigh, I opened my mouth.

“Rachiel has finally fallen.”

“Rachiel? “You mean the god of the fairies?”

“that’s right.”

“Were you busy because of that?”

“ O ”

o’*

“Why didn’t you call me? “You can use all your heart and soul to beat angels.”

“I wish I could laugh at it like it’s someone else’s business like you do.”

“You know, it’s someone else’s job too. Because it’s Jin Geum-yong.”

“Yeah, but…

“There’s no need to act like an angel now. “It’s construction confusion, right?”

“If they quit being demons.”

“Are you and me the same?”

“Anyway, two archangels have already fallen. “This is really not normal.”

“But don’t you think you heard this somewhere?”

“You heard?”

“If you think about it carefully, the keywords are corruption and unexpected events.”

There was no way I didn’t know.

Because she was a party to it.

“Four seasons meeting?”

“And demons.”

The Sagyehoe incident was also the event that led to Yulgeum and Deus meeting for the first time.

Among the dragons, some who refused to make peace with humans

used poison obtained from demons to corrupt the clan.

The corrupted dragons attacked the human world and planned to use the series of events to incite other dragons into an anti-human faction.
