Why I Quit Being the Demon King

Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 357

81. The end and…. (2)

Deus looked down at his fist.

And the woman who was pierced by that fist bent her head down.

“What kind of joke is this?”

“You’re really strong. “Kid.”

“It didn’t look like anything other than a hit.”

“As for my strength… it is only a little stronger than the other archangels.

In terms of combat ability, you surpassed me a long time ago. Be proud, kid. “You are the strongest being in this little grape.”

Deus took his hand away from Lucifer’s body.

The hole in her chest healed rapidly. It was the body of the devil. Even if your heart is broken, you will not die easily.

The real blow lay elsewhere.

Lucifer said, bleeding from his mouth.

“What are you going to name this?”

“What a name…

Deus looked down at Lucifer, who was sitting on the floor and leaning on the demon sword Lilith.

“It’s an evolution of DS. You did a great job in a short period of time. “It’s an attack that erases all wavelengths except for a limited wavelength.”

The attack that Deus unleashed on Lucifer with all his might was a technique that overturned DS Era once again.

DS-Rae was a power that identified waves and neutralized them.

On the other hand, the technology used now

removes all but certain wavelengths.

Deus used that power to attack everything except Migo’s biological energy.

Because of this, only Lucifer, who was in Migo’s body, was hit.

The reason Deus held Signy right before coming here was to acquire Migo’s wavelength.

The blood flowing through Migo’s body belonged to both Deus himself and Signi.

This means that if you understand Signi, you can read the other half of Migo.

Of course, just because you have the technology, hitting it with the correct hit is a different story.

Because of that, Deus confronted Lucifer while disguising his power as an ordinary DS.

It was a perfect attack.

To be honest, I was confident that I could take a hit even if it was a real god and not an archangel.

But it went too well.

It felt like I had never been fed this properly in my entire short life.

As if I had hit a defenseless scarecrow.

Lucifer let out a low laugh.

Very slowly, my appearance was becoming younger.

This would mean that Migo’s consciousness becomes stronger as time flows backwards.

“Hey, are you serious?”

“There is no limit.”

“What kind of trick is this?”

“When was it?… I think it was around the time you met Zeke. I was shocked. “I never once thought that those feelings would remain within me

.”

She leaned deeply into her sword.

The curse has not yet been lifted.

The black water still soaked the land and spread to a wider area.

Only a few hundred meters of land nearby has been purified and is growing new life.

Lucifer’s monologue continued with that in his eyes.

“I was born in darkness. Emotions are like that too. I envied those guys in bright places and even tried to imitate them. While taking care of the Chimera, now called demons

… I stole their hearts as they stood in the light. But it didn’t work out.”

“There’s no need for that, right? Are you saying that you really wanted to obtain love, friendship, and peace?”

“Hehehe, the land where the sun sets. “Maybe it came from my heart.”

“Don’t be gloomy.”

“I never thought I would know what that thirst is. “I never thought I would grow such an ordinary heart!”

“I’m asking because you want to talk. especially. “What on earth is that heart

?”

“The moment I saw you and Zeke together… I knew that was my family.”

There was someone who reacted sharply to those words.

Yulgeum came one step late.

“You idiot! “There’s no way we have something like that!”

“Are you here? Stupid little brother. “Are you my sister?”

“It is natural that when light is born, a shadow is created. “There is no right or second for us.”

“You are the cause and I am the effect.”

“There is no such cause and effect for us.” The image of Yulgeum appeared in Deus’s eyes.

she was crying Tears overflowed down my cheeks.

“That is not harmony and order. We are…

“watchers, not leaders. “That was your habit.”

Lucifer’s laughter was particularly lonely. She opened her mouth again.

“I felt it for the first time. family. I’ve seen half-demon kings and heroes countless times… but

when I saw them one by one, I never once felt like they were family. But the moment I saw you two hanging out, laughing and getting angry, a dam in my heart collapsed. ah! For those children…

Lucifer took a moment to catch his breath and opened his mouth again.

Before we knew it, Migo had become a 10-year-old girl.

It seemed like the time left for Lucifer wasn’t that long.

“For those children… let’s destroy this world.”

Zeke also arrived here.

He said, deeply closing his only eye.

“That is Jeonghwa. To create a new Eden for a select few,

“and you will be the Noah of the ark that goes there.”

Zeke was speechless at Lucifer’s words.

She said as if muttering.

“That’s all I can leave behind. So that the world polluted by chaos can be purified with water and start over. So that

one day your son’s son’s son’s sons and your daughter’s daughter’s daughter’s daughters can open the gates of Babel and go to distant places…

Lucifer lifted his hand and placed it on his heart.

“I just hope that this child, who is at the tip of my finger, Migo, who is like my other half who has inherited me completely, will get on that ship… So this world must be destroyed. Samael’s curse doesn’t stop. Even if I die. So, you build an ark. “I could probably buy a handful.”

Closing her eyes, she hummed.

“The people you brought on board… are qualified to live in the new century. After the confusion of gold and silver, it will be a world of iron at best… World! Shine brighter than ever!”

Migo suddenly returned to her original childlike appearance.

Deus approached Lucifer.

I looked down at her.

It was strange.

In the end, it was said that both the motive and the purpose were for Deus himself and those around him.

“Crazy woman.”

“Ever since the day Migo was born, I have never been able to go back to sleep. I’m really out of my mind. I wanted to hug this child and pinch his cheek. He sent Samael nearby and saw Migo through his eyes and ears. It was an extremely unfamiliar feeling to me. “I dare to imagine… Wouldn’t that have been a feeling of love?”

“Are you just going to die because of that? “An angel as big as you… dying like this because he wanted to feel so many emotions?”

“I see. Barely… because of that…

“Ha

Deus let out a long sigh. I looked up at the sky.

“Okay, I’ll tell you something that will satisfy you, so go back to sleep. “You will never wake up again.”

“Are you saying I’m satisfied? What is that? Are you saying you know that?”

Deus nodded.

Then he leaned over and whispered in her ear.

“Rest in peace. mom.”

Lucifer widened his eyes in surprise.

“Special service.”

Deus averted his gaze after saying these words.

One thing was certain.

Lucifer was satisfied.

His face was filled with laughter and it faded away just in time for Migo’s birthday.

Yulgeum stamped his foot.

He cried like a child and stamped his feet several times.

Taking Migo, who had not yet woken up, Deus, Zeke, and Yulgeum returned to where Signi was.

Signi held Migo in her arms. I couldn’t say anything. I just sob tears of joy.

Meanwhile, the black water continued to spread.

It looks like it will only stop once the world is truly destroyed.

“Lucifer…

wanted to save just one person, Migo, even if everyone in the world got hurt.”

Yulgeum opened his mouth.

“There’s only one thing this black water can’t hurt. Because the only party to the curse was Lou Sippel. “I didn’t want to hurt you even accidentally.”

It wasn’t because I wanted to become stronger or have a body.

Lucifer stayed inside Migo purely to protect him.

Although I couldn’t take sides since the goal was the end of the star.

“I don’t pity you.” Yul

Geum laughed

at Deus’ words that seemed like they had been cut by a sword .

“of course.”

“They said they were sisters. you.”

“We have no such concept. “It didn’t come from the womb of its parents.”

“What about Sandalphon?”

“She and I are one. “Because each wing has wings.”

” is it?”

“I am only half-hearted. “The position of archangel is actually too much.”

“Why are you suddenly acting humble?”

“Really. So, can I ask you one favor?”

“I want to reject you before I even hear it.”

“Take care of the dragon clan.”

“no. “If that’s the case, there’s the right person over there.”

Deus pointed at Zeke with his chin.

“He… maybe that would be better. “He is a great man who would run away from home because he didn’t want to take on the position of Dragon God.”

“Are you planning on fully returning as Metatron?”

Yulgeum just laughed at that question.

“Well… the archangels

have become a mess too. Aren’t Kamael and Hamiel the only fallen angels who are still intact?

Ah, there are four angels who say it is Sariel. “It won’t be easy to rebuild.”

“Purification is something we don’t know how long it will take. Maybe it will stop only after all the humans and life currently alive die. Even if you and Zeke join forces to save humans… they won’t be able to save other lives. There are more creatures living in the sea than you can imagine. “I can’t just watch

such a crime as killing them all and starting over .”

“You can’t watch. What do you mean suddenly?”

“I can hear the screams of all living things. The reason I saved the dragon clan from death was not because of great sacrifice. Because my heart is not strong enough to endure each and every death. “I just quit being an archangel because I felt like I would become corrupted.”

“Deus I am not that strong.”

“So why are you talking about that?

Damn woman! no… Yulgeum!”

“The only thing that can stop the Archangel’s curse is the Archangel’s curse.”

“don’t do it!”

Deus held out his hand.

But the rhythm has already disappeared.

The crown fell in its place with a loud noise.

“You damn woman!”

Deus screamed.

The blood-filled cry split sharply.

Epilogue

A year has passed since the fight between Deus and Lucifer ended.

Due to Yulgeum’s sacrifice, the black water disappeared.

What the black water swallowed was a land with a radius of 2,000 kilometers encompassing the old Jose Continent and the Demon World.

The land that had been purified was completely free of toxins and was filled with the most fertile soil and unpolluted lakes and rivers

.

It was a paradise like Eden from mythology.

However, all civilizations created by humans and demons were completely gone, and even plants had not yet taken root, so they had to slowly expand their settlements starting from the outermost regions.

Humans go from north to south and demons go from south to north.

One day, we will face borders again and face conflict and cooperation, but I don’t think it will happen for at least 100 years. Queen April

stroked

her bulging belly .

The baby’s movements suddenly became more severe, as if he was practicing kicking inside.

However, she could not use pregnancy as an excuse to neglect state affairs. In particular, today was the day of the meeting with the Zodiac Knight.

The Zodiac Knight continues to be the focal point of humanity.

I went there when I had trouble crossing the border. The enemies, the demons, retreated beyond thousands of kilometers of wasteland, but they were not mugwort monsters.

In the fight against large beasts,

it was still the Zodiac Knights and warriors who stood at the forefront.

“Your Majesty the Queen. I pray for endless glory for you, your kingdom, and your descendants.”

The Zodiac Knight’s envoy has arrived. The knight in front lowered his head with his fist raised to his chest.

It was a familiar face.

Katran van Hollygum. He was a warrior from Isolta.

“Lord Hollygham. “The kingdom welcomes you and your companions.”

Katran

was Zeke’s follower and at the same time Regin’s friend.

The two became closer after saving Regin, who was once accused of false accusation and almost lost his honor.

They happened to be of similar age, and with Katran being appointed Zodiac Knight, they were now closer than anyone else.

“Your Majesty, there have been major floods in the northwest this month. “The Zodiac Knights are currently fighting against giant monsters that live in the water, and they are short on soldiers and supplies.”

“You start talking about business before the echo of the greeting ends

.”

“I’m sorry. “It just means that it’s urgent.”

“i get it. If you say so, it must be necessary. I will contact the military office immediately.

“thank you.”

“Regin… are you doing well? “I wish he had come.”

“A ball is a ball and we live together. “If Leo Paladin leaves the front line, morale will suffer.”

“Hmph, your absence won’t affect your power, right?”

“Because I am the last stone of the Zodiac Knight.”

“Scorpio is not a light position either. Please protect the lion’s honor as Oridon’s successor.”

“I know. More than that… Zeke, aren’t you stopping by the castle?”

“I haven’t visited you in half a year. “You seem busy.”

“Mr. Jushak and Mr. Actor are also staying with us now… but you haven’t stopped by.”

“That’s the kind of person he was originally. My nephew will be born soon. Why

aren’t you coming? “More than that, why does Lord Hollygum always ask about Zeke’s well-being every time he comes to me?”

“Did you?”

“Unrequited love is painful.”

“It’s hard to hear jokes like that.”

“Hohoho, if you’re that curious, try using the warp gate. Wouldn’t it be in a resort on the southern island or in Rosdia?”

“I’ll have to try that once this battle is over.”

“Once this battle is over, the next battle will be waiting. “Just as my husband

does not visit me, you will also find it difficult to find time.”

“These are difficult times. Humanity lost all the big cities and castles it had built so far…

“That black water… was really scary.”

If the black liquid had spread faster, humanity would have been destroyed without any time to escape.

“They were the ones who solved that problem, right?”

“I won’t say anything specifically, but won’t I?”

“Actually, there was something else that saved the world… but the Seonghwangcheong has not been destroyed since that incident. After the fall of Cardinal Le Sulet, candidates for the next Holy Father are at war. “Everyone insisted that they had defeated the black water through the power of prayer, but they couldn’t even help but laugh.”

“Now we have to stop relying on Seonghwangcheong. It’s no longer the focal point or anything. “I have high expectations for Zodiac Night.”

“We are also part of the Seonghwangcheong Office.”

“Because Prince Cadenza is doing well.”

Cadenza gave up his position as Knight of Libra. Instead, he served as the head of the department that manages the Zodiac Knights and was doing his best to train the next generation.

Cadenza was the first to declare the separation of politics and knights.

Only God can give orders to the Zodiac Knight.

Other high-ranking officials of the church were prohibited from getting involved with the Zodiac Knight and the knights under him. Even prosperous.

The cathedral knights who only operate according to God’s law were the current Zodiac

Knights.

“Since when did I start praying to a priest rather than to God? That’s why disasters like this happen.”

Queen April grew distrustful of the Holy Imperial Office because of Cardinal Le Sulet.

Moreover, Seonghwangcheong’s role in major events that have occurred recently was close to zero.

Rather, if there was someone to rely on, wouldn’t Zeke be in that position?

“But I heard something strange.”

“Strange story?”

“Signi has been cursed again.”

Queen April sighed.

“It’s not a curse. To be honest, it’s closer to a blessing. Because Migo has a younger brother. However, the father…

“It’s ‘him’.”

Katran also smiled bitterly.

‘Demon King’ was still a taboo name in the human world. But

it was also true that he

had saved this world several times .

Although only a few high-ranking people were still sharing the truth.

“I guess Migo won’t be lonely either. “Because you will have a younger sibling.”

“There are still 10 years, no, 9 years left.”

“Well, Migo also stayed on her mother’s back for 10 years.”

“I wish Migo would stop being a demon lord and come here. “You would have been a good older sister to Berol.”

“Because he is the king of a country.”

“Should we call it a country?”

“It’s a country of demons.”

Queen April clenched her chin.

“Because they are demons…

“ = OOO 三he. OOOI”

”1—”I“―I—I—’广—!―厂=!

Migo covered her ears to Alex’s long shout.

“I’m not deaf.”

“Why are you telling us to expand our territory further south? “It’s still hot enough.”

“How many more times do I have to explain this? “It gets cooler the further south you go.”

“That story does not conform to common sense.”

“Kyo Goku.”

“Yes, my lord.”

“All seven dukes need to get out of this small area. “Let’s all take a vacation and go on a long trip.”

“yes?”

“It’s an order.”

“Yes?”

“I’m going to go to Rosdia right now. “To see my family.”

“Yeh?”

“I order all seven dukes to take a year’s vacation

. “I will entrust the position of Grand Duke for the next 10 years to the Seven Dukes who have traveled to the farthest place, so please know that.”

As soon as Migo finished saying this, he opened the warp gate.

In an instant, the scenery before my eyes changed. The white marble castle walls

filled the field of view.

The name of the castle is Rosdia.

It was Deus’ base and the place where his followers stayed.

“It’s a really mysterious place.” Migo sighed briefly.

Only 12 years old. Although he was now turning 13, the position of king seemed like a sigh of relief.

“The demons are always fighting, but here, even though there are a lot more diverse races, it’s quiet.”

Migo immediately walked to Signy’s room.

A long sword was now protruding from Signi’s back.

that day.

It was because Deus held Signi in his arms.

It was good to prove

that there was no problem with sexual function …

but for a while, Deus was quite shocked by the fact that he was having a second child.

It’s not that I didn’t like it, but it was true that I was confused.

” mom!”

Signi, who had been leaning on a chair, half-raised his body.

It wasn’t the first time, but it wasn’t easy to get used to having a sword behind my back.

Still, while it was only a cursed object at the time, it is now a symbol of blessing.

There were many times when

pain felt more like joy .

“Migo!”

Because it means that there will be another being like this child being held in one’s arms.

“How are you feeling?”

“It’s okay. Because I feel more at ease compared to when I was with you. “But when I think about how it will grow, it seems like it’s a little bigger than you, maybe because of my mood.”

“I guess it’s a boy.”

“I wish it was my daughter.”

” why?”

“Well… they say that the devil always has a son. “I am worried that if the second child is a son, there will be an uproar over making him king.”

“It’s okay for me. It’s not like I have any regrets about being on the throne. You don’t have to be the king to protect the demons. “Like my father.”

“That is correct.”

“My father and uncle are now…

“They went there again.”

“ah!”

smart-.

A knock was heard and a woman

entered the room. It was Lakhe.

She was holding a bouquet of flowers in her hands. It seemed like he had come to change the flowers in the vase.

Then he saw Migo and greeted him warmly.

“It’s Migoro.”

“Mr. Lakhe! hello.”

“Are you worthy of being the Demon King? “If it’s bothersome, you can hand it over to someone and come here.”

“Not yet. “I’m tired of fighting every day.” “

It looks like they started fighting

among themselves since there are no external enemies .”

“There is no such side.”

“Push it down with force. “Because it suits them better.”

“Try to do it more like now. By the way, Mr. Laque.”

“huh?”

“When are you planning on marrying Uncle Zeke?”

Lakhe’s hand stopped.

“Yes? Why is that suddenly…

“Everyone says that. Mr. Sadimus also said something like that before.”

“That person is so foolish. “After 1,000 years have passed, do you still have interest in other people’s romantic relationships?”

“My uncle is really dull. Maybe you still don’t know that Mr. Lakke likes his uncle? “I understand.”

“You are an adolescent girl.”

“The devil has no such thing as puberty.”

“There will be. “Because there is some part of the blood that flows through your body that is human.”

Lakhe smiled and took the withered plant in the vase in his hand. When I grabbed it, it dried quickly and was soon swallowed up in my hand.

For Lakhe, a plant, withered plants were good food.

She said as she placed the fresh flowers she had just brought.

“It took me 70,000 years to bloom. “We can wait that long again until it bears fruit.”

Migo smiled at those words.

“It’s a fight that my uncle will definitely lose.”

“Zeek, if you’re here to see your father, go there.”

“No. Mom is the main focus today

. “I’ll think about it after spending a lot of time with my mom.”

Lakhe looked at the sky.

“Anyway, I heard you like high places. “They are.”

“Isn’t that right, Zeke? If you think about it, she was upset. That’s why I held SIGNI so tightly. At that time, I did it to expand the contact area and read the soul’s wavelength at a faster rate, but I didn’t have any selfish intentions. You know that. Of course I made your sister like that, but

it wasn’t intentional. “No, that doesn’t mean I won’t take responsibility.”

Zeke stuck his head out from between the cracks of some unidentifiable machine.

“It looks like you failed again this time.”

“Ha….nothing.”

“Isn’t it true that he is not in this universe?”

“I heard you haven’t seen Sariel yet. “He’s not dead, ever.”

“If an angel dies, will he go to the underworld?”

“I don’t know. No one knows. “Something like the

afterlife of angels .”

“I hope you succeed. “I also can’t believe that Yul Geum has passed away.”

“I said he never died.”

Deus crossed his arms and looked confident.

“What about you?”

“It’s always like that.”

“It’s a bit surprising. To think so. “I never thought I would go into space.”

Deus looked towards the ceiling.

The blue star Earth was visible through the wide lattice window.

The place where these two are now is the largest of the star servants left behind by the old Four Jar.

This place, which was used as a base in the early days, had many relics of Nezar left behind.

“You are also the lord of dragons.”

“Deus-sama passed it on to me.”

“I’m busy.”

“That’s right. But… I think I’ll have to hand it over to someone else soon. But I don’t know who would be better

.”

“Would you like to recommend one?”

” yes?”

“Scatul. “That bastard needs to suffer.”

“haha. I feel like I’m going through enough right now. “It seems like he took on all of Kamael’s errands to heal the fallen archangels.”

“Because there aren’t many left who are still intact angels. “I guess the senior was completely corrupted and was sealed away?”

“Is a world without angels really okay?”

“Why are you so worried about that? Besides, if something big happens that the angels can’t solve it, you can come in. “Because it’s much stronger than an archangel.”

“I just happened to become a little stronger. Things like wisdom and insight…

“How can you use wisdom and insight against a space monster? Just hit it and break it.”

“Is that so?”

“So what do you plan on doing?”

“I want to go somewhere far away. I hear this often now too. Come, come to me. “His calling.”

“Maybe it’s just a hallucination? So why do you take healthy

eyeballs and make them sick? “My eyes were gouged out and my ears were also injured.”

“Haha, if I hadn’t done that, Deus would have lost that day?”

“Will I lose? “To a crazy woman who has no intention of winning.”

Zeke got out of the gap in the machine and straightened his back. There was a crunching sound.

“I wanted to go there once. “To the place where real humanity should have gone.”

“Are you going to resurrect Babel?”

“With my current knowledge, I don’t even have a chance. Not a genius like Nezar. “You have to take your time and get help from those around you.”

“It will take thousands of years.”

“But it doesn’t matter.”

“Are you not planning on dying?”

“It’s a spirit of extreme speed that even the Shinigami can’t chase away.”

“You’ve become so successful.”

“Thanks to Deus. If it weren’t for Master Deus, I would still be an F-class hero living under the stairs in the slums of Joryx Castle and working part-time…

That was the beginning.

Thinking back on that day, Zeke nodded once again.

Deus turned to him

and saw the universe.

A place that was just black.

If there had not been a group of brilliant lights called stars, humanity might not have been interested in them.

“It would be unseemly for a grown man to lie in a cradle.”

“No matter how comfortable it is there. Maybe… the first time humans came out of Eden wasn’t an expulsion. “It is truly God’s will to leave that place, and Lucifer has given mankind the oracle of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil.”

“What do you know? It’s an old story like that. Besides

, it’s a myth. “It’s obvious that it’s a symbol of something, right?”

“That’s right. So, Deus, are you going to continue looking for Yulgeum

?”

“Hmm… for now?”

“How many years?”

“It hasn’t been decided. What do you know? “Because I’m in a situation where I won’t die either.”

The sun, humanity’s first star, grows old and swells.

Around the time when the second star collapsed and became a black hole.

Beyond the end of the universe, beyond the new border.

Deus scratched his head and sighed.

“I finally found her. Damn woman.”

“What are you saying, unlucky man?”

The blooming smile of Yulgeum was whiter than the moon

.
