Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 356
81. End And…. (1)
Zeke tilted his head and Yulgeum followed his gaze with a dumb expression.
“If you’re trying to comfort me…
Signi didn’t know what to do about the body odor she could feel in Deus’s arms.
More than anything, the fact that she was being held in Deus’s arms with Zeke and Yulgeum right by her side puzzled her.
” Shh.”
Deus briefly interrupted her.
Ahn put more strength into his arms.
Deus did not let go of his embrace even when Signy’s face turned red to the point of blushing.
No one understood his actions.
However, I had no intention of stopping my crazy behavior as it was beyond my limits.
Ah, that was originally like that. If you’re curious, you’re losing money.
Deus closed his eyes as if savoring it and felt Signi.
Unable to bear it any longer, the moment Yulgeum was about to say something, Deus let go of Signi.
“Signi.”
“Four four.”
“I’ll bring Migo.”
Immediately after that, Deus disappeared from everyone.
The only trace of the warp gate he created was a small breeze.
“You’re back. “Kid.” There she was.
Her black hair flowed like a waterfall and reached the floor around her.
Deus looked around Lucifer. There was land there that was so smooth it was hard to believe it was dirt.
purification.
Samael’s curse was closer to purification.
Deus put his feet down on the dirt ground.
Lucifer said.
“It is sacred land. “Take off your shoes.”
“Do you think I’ll hear something like that?”
“If I had heard, I wouldn’t have quit being the Demon King in the first place.”
“I know.”
“Because you are a body made from half of me.”
“If your ancestors go back 18 generations, you are further away than others, right? “Even if you count the number of relatives, it’s more than 18 degrees.”
“The blood did not thin out. “You are still my other half.”
“Then the other half must be heroes.”
“The blood of a warrior becomes thin. A being with half my blood… even if he is a dull person,
he is still too powerful. It will easily surpass humans. “There is no way order and harmony can be maintained if there are thousands of such beings.”
“It seems like you live by thinking. “That one too.”
“It was a problem because there were too many.”
“So you’re Migo? Migo was you from the beginning. The fact that the warrior’s pureblood level was 50 meant that it was you. “The other half was the devil’s blood.”
Lucifer admitted obediently.
“that’s right. This child is half a hero
and half a demon lord. However, it can be said to be perfect as a vessel to contain Lucifer. “Because it is my own blood.”
“It’s all a joke on you. “Heot, knock, knock, this law.”
“It’s Yulgeum… She is the closest to God. no. In fact, at one time, humanity worshiped her as a god.”
“You mean Metatron?”
“By another name. Don’t let that name come out of your mouth. “As a minimum courtesy to her.”
“I’m not interested in a woman’s past. So,
does it feel good to have a young, vibrant body in your hands? Instead of your old, old body?”
“The word ‘representative’ is not appropriate.
“I have no such thing as a body.”
Lucifer looked down at his sword Lilith.
Samael’s black blood was still seeping into the ground.
Small, black grains were sprouting from Samael’s dead body.
It looked like mold or moss.
Following Lucifer’s gaze, Deus naturally
turned his eyes to Samael’s body.
“The first step in evolution has already begun. Here, from Eden, the Earth will be resurrected.”
“Clam country?”
“I’m quite obsessed with clams.”
“Wasn’t it you who mentioned clams?”
“I guess it was just one of many examples.”
“I do not remember.”
“It’s really suitable.”
“Well, that’s the policy of my life.”
“I will turn everything back to nothing and start again
. Create a perfectly harmonious world…
“Will you become its god?”
“He’s God…. It doesn’t matter if it happens or not. “Such a meaningless name.”
“O atheist angel.”
“The sun is quite small in this universe. Some stars are so huge that they swallow the entire solar system. Its size cannot be estimated using any human-made unit. “That huge star has even swallowed its own planet and
is wandering the universe alone.”
“Stars are only useful when you look at them while lying on the grass.”
“That is God. God exists. That’s definitely true. He created order to bring harmony to this world. However, He does not specifically punish those who disturb the order. There is no such thing as a reward for doing well. He’s just far away. In a way, it may be our own illusion that he is calling us. “That is God.”
“Are you annoyed by the praise?”
“Even if I hear such ridicule, I can’t help it.”
“You are the gods that humans think of.”
“It is the work of angels to give oracles, to guide people on the right path, to reward good deeds and punish evildoers.”
“What do you know? To be honest, it doesn’t matter whether you do that or not. If you went to that giant star or something you mentioned earlier. But not here. “This is my land?”
“Hoho, now that I think about it, you declared both the Earth and the Moon as your own, right?”
“huh. If you try to take it, you will have to go to war. How can you cover my land with such dirty blood? “Isn’t it already too late to strike it down with a few gold coins?”
“It sounds like you can beat me.”
“huh. “I am strong.”
“I am your father.”
“Was it a man?”
“Gender is meaningless.”
“Anyway, why don’t you give me back my land and go somewhere far away? “Put down your Meego too.”
“There is no child in this world called Migo
.”
“That’s up to me. “First, we have to find the body and get the soul back, even if it means turning the whole hell upside down.”
“Do you believe in that matter? “There are things in this world you can’t do.”
“I’ll give it back exactly as it was said.”
Lucifer smiled.
“Can you stop it? “This me?”
“If you’re asking for something, show sincerity. “Take gold or jewels.”
Deus clenched and unclenched his fists. The gauntlet DSS was in my hand.
Lucifer stuck his sword Lilith on the floor
. He put down the magic sword, which was still bleeding cursed blood, and took a step toward Deus.
“Come, kid.”
“I won’t refuse, old man!”
Zeke stood at the edge of the black water and looked into the distance.
“What could it have been? that.”
Yulgeum, standing side by side, let out a slightly annoyed look.
“I don’t know.”
“Why are you suddenly hugging Signi?”
Signy was currently praying at a distance from the two people.
However, he seemed unable to concentrate on prayer like before.
I was often fanning my hands to cool my burning face.
“Your daughter has disappeared, but you’re acting like that.”
Zeke laughed at Yulgeum’s sharp words.
“I’ll bring Migo.”
“huh?”
“Because you said so.”
“Maybe it’s just a bluff.”
“You know full well that that’s not the case.”
“I’m not the type of guy to spit empty words. “If it’s a scam, I always get hit.”
“Are you angry?”
“fury? why’?”
“Deus-sama hugged Signy…
“If we continue the conversation any further, he’ll be really angry. Especially to you.”
“sorry.”
Yulgeum sighed briefly.
“I, Sandalphon, and Lucifer were born on the same day, at the same time, in the same place. Sandalphon
and I are called twins because we look the same, but Lucifer is also a twin if you look at it that way. We are triplets. “I was born at the border between light and darkness, and Lucifer was born at the border between darkness and light.”
“They say it’s the sun, the moon, and the shadow.”
“It’s a symbolic story. Lucifer was rather soft-hearted than us. When mankind became the masters of the world and developed civilization, they would go down to the lower world and provide help at each critical juncture. Every time we insisted on mechanical neutrality,
she smiled slightly and nodded as if she were troubled. But it was only like that in front, and behind the scenes, it helped humans again.”
“You must have been very disappointed when humanity was destroyed.”
“I guess so. Not just her. All angels did that. On that day of destruction, seven angels blew their trumpets and sang sorrowful songs. “I shed bloody tears as I watched the land being polluted by mugwort.”
“Because they all loved humanity.”
“love. that’s right. That feeling is the closest to crying. No matter how much they ruined and polluted the world,
we smiled and waited. Someday…. Someday,
“Yulgeum, why did you take charge of the dragons?”
“We couldn’t attack Adapa directly. Our power is to watch. Because our law strictly forbids direct intervention in human affairs. We needed someone to clean up the remnants of Adapa on our behalf, so we created a dragon, a mythical animal, and gave it that job. Adapa was strong and the number of dragons increased. And
when all the wars ended… I couldn’t bear to kill them. “I decided to create a boundary between reality and illusion so they could hide, and I would take responsibility for them.”
Yulgeum took a step backwards, avoiding the black water, and opened his mouth again.
“Maybe he ran away.”
“From humanity?”
“…It was Lucy Pell who created the Silver Age. “He wanted to give me a chance.”
“Era of chaos… isn’t it?”
“Ugh”o“.
“He is the God of mankind now.”
“Lucifer is the closest thing to the definition of God that humans talk about today.”
“But why did you suddenly… try to destroy me?”
“Destruction…
Yulgeum repeated Zeke’s words.
Immediately after that, I looked up in surprise.
“no! That’s what she’s trying to do!”
Yulgeum hurriedly opened the warp gate.
But it didn’t open. I raised my head and looked at the sky. The servants of the star were looking down at him. They seemed to have created a powerful force field throughout this area.
Lucifer obtained the control key for the relic left behind by Nezar and activated it.
Yulgeum had no choice but to fly up directly.
A distance of over 1,000 kilometers. However, now that I had awakened by calling on the power of the archangel, the distance did not take that long.
Zeke immediately followed Yulgeum.
“What on earth is going on?”
“I learned Lucifer’s true purpose.”
” yes?”
“purification. “It was hidden in those words!”
“Purification…
“If you want to avoid this black water, you can avoid it. “There is only one person in this world who can avoid this black water.”
” yes?”
“You, Zeke!”
“That’s…”
“You can fly to Jupiter under your own power. And a handful of humans to choose from. “This is a great flood.”
“ The Great Flood…
“Utnapish Team Noah, any name is fine. Lucifer is currently causing a great flood on this Earth. “The most powerful flood that can purify even the poison of mugwort.”
“Wait. The fact that you are one of the few people I will choose is like…
“Lucifer singled you out as the prophet of the new human race. The same goes for Deus. And the being at the center is Migo!”
“Isn’t Migo dead?”
“Unless Lucifer has changed
… Migo is alive. Rather, the one who dies…
Yulgeum gritted his teeth. I flapped my wings faster. Just a few minutes. It was the time it took to arrive, but it felt like an eternity.
