How the Shadow of the Marquis Lives - How the Shadow of the Marquis Lives chapter 152
Chapter 152
Even though she had just woken up, Psyche immediately got into a fight.
Psyche evaded the Dragon King’s breath and rushed in, strangling the Dragon King’s body.
Psyche’s size was smaller than that of the Dragon King, but it was long enough to strangle him.
[however… … ! What kind of fuss is this?!]
Psyche asked with firm force.
Xian, who was on top of her head, answered quickly.
“He sent an apostle to this place and ran into me. A battle broke out, and I somehow managed to come to him.”
[Apostle? Why is the demon dragon king’s apostle in my land?]
“I don’t know. But it is clear that it is not for benign purposes.”
As soon as he arrived, he wiped out a village of yetis.
The Yeti were laid-back to the point of being lazy, and never showed their claws to outsiders. Because it was the same for the real Xian.
No matter how much this hell world is a place overflowing with strife, it would be hard to see such a peaceful village being annihilated.
[To my land for not benign purposes… … ? Could it be me?]
That the demon dragon king’s apostle came to kill Psyche. It was true.
I’m just not sure about either.
[By the way, who is that grandpa?]
Psyche looked at the Demon Dragon King’s head and asked the demon that was fighting with him.
He was struggling to break through the pouring magic and cut off the head of the Demon Dragon King.
“It’s an old man named Gwima, but it’s long to explain everything. For now, just know that you are the enemy of the Dragon King.”
As the situation was, Xian spoke as concisely as possible.
For now, this was enough.
[You mean the enemy of the enemy? Then you’re a colleague!]
“That’s how it is.”
Gwima, Xian, and Psyche face one dragon king.
Among them, the Demon Dragon King was most concerned about the demon. Because the demon was constantly aiming for the dragon king’s head, and he was the most dangerous in terms of skills.
However, Psyche, who clung to her body and begged her, was also not very annoying.
[This worm!]
The Demon Dragon King roared loudly and raised his hand to grab Psyche and try to tear him away.
However, the more the Dragon King exerted her strength, the more Psyche tightened her grip.
It’s not just strength.
The Demon Dragon King clicked his tongue and flew higher.
There was a fireball that was shining like the sun that I had made a long time ago.
[draft! You must not fall away from me!]
Hearing Psyche’s words, Xian clung to Psyche.
With them hanging, the Demon Dragon King jumped into the sun.
It was an intense flame that could melt even steel in an instant, but because it was the demon dragon king’s magic, the demon dragon king was not harmed at all.
But Psyche and Xian are different.
Soon a blazing fire covered them.
[town!]
Psyche stopped breathing, and a chill enveloped her body. Of course, Xian was also included in it.
The dragon king’s flame continued to press to pierce Psyche’s cold air, but Psyche’s energy was not pierced.
Although she is still immature, she was also one of the great demons like the Demon Dragon King.
The Demon Dragon King jumped into the sun but couldn’t get Psyche off.
[Chip.]
He clicked his tongue loudly and turned his head away.
From there, the auras sent by the demons were flooding in. The Demon Dragon King couldn’t just deal with Psyche.
In the meantime, Psyche spread the cold air further and completely dissipated the dragon king’s flames, and Xian switched to the dragon king’s back on top of Psyche’s head.
The Demon Dragon King’s back trembled as if he would get motion sickness.
In order to deal with the Ghost Demon, who wields his sword freely while stepping on the air, the Dragon King couldn’t just float in the air.
‘I have to drop my wings first.’
In the swaying air, Xian’s eyes shone.
An iron rule against all winged things. First of all, you have to take away the wings.
Xian swung his sword towards the wing of the beast.
Whiik!
However, just before that, the Demon Dragon King’s body flipped over and the sword’s RBI missed.
Ting!
The dark power that is unstable underfoot cannot be applied.
The blow was blocked in vain, and Xian managed to balance while holding the scales.
[Little boy.]
At some point, Xian could feel the dragon king’s gaze.
The vertically split pupils narrowed even more.
It looked like a mockery.
[Even if I’m struggling right now, it’s not because of you. you just wait patiently I’ll get rid of all these guys and take you.]
“You mean to become an apostle again? I would have said no.”
[Your will is irrelevant. Besides, sooner or later the day will come when you will be grateful for being my apostle.]
The sound of the guy’s ridicule echoed in Xi’an’s head.
At the same time, the demon dragon king’s magical power covered Xi’an.
It immediately affected Xi’an’s mind.
‘That’s right.’
Everything the Dragon King said was true.
Compared to the demons and Psyche, who regained her strength, she is still inferior.
You’d have to be at least a High Master to join them.
However, even though he had beaten Pamela, he hadn’t reached that level yet.
The Demon Dragon King’s magical power was trying to pull out helplessness from Xian.
Xian didn’t know it, but it wasn’t just about inducing thoughts or touching them slightly.
For other ordinary people, it was mental magic that exerted a power close to brainwashing.
however.
‘It was something like this.’
Xian raised his sword.
In the midst of a feeling of helplessness, he calmly memorized the trick of the yam sword.
what the devil said The reason why the yam sword was made.
The story that the Demon Dragon King made with the mindset that he would only cut himself no matter what he did.
[ Heavenly Sword (霜天劍) – Heavenly Thunder (天雷)]
Xian struck the sword at the wingtip of the creature.
At that moment, his feet trembled again and tried to throw Xian off balance, but the footrest made of aura was already firmly planted on his feet.
Rather, thanks to the twisted body, the dragon king’s wings were more widely exposed to Xian’s sword path.
Xian drew lightning on his wing without hesitation.
Kaga gaga gaga river!
The scales that cover its body break off in an instant.
Each one of them was a scale that boasted unprecedented strength, but it couldn’t stop Xian’s thunder.
All scales touched by the sword are broken, revealing its inner flesh. Even his flesh was cracked, and soon blood gushed out.
[Kuaaa!]
The Demon Dragon King struggled with the pain felt in his wings.
Xian held on to the scales and inspected the spot he had just cut.
Also, one knife is not enough.
I cut through it by maximizing my aura, but I could barely cut through 1/3 of the joint connecting the wings and body.
The power of the Demon Dragon King has not diminished yet.
[This little guy!]
As if Xian’s behavior of dropping his wings was very annoying, the Demon Dragon King was angry with Xian.
At the same time, flames began to fall on him. It was a firepower that would not lag behind the sun at all.
[draft!]
However, the flames were blocked by Psyche’s coldness.
The demon dragon king gnashed his teeth, and at the same time, the ghost swung his sword at the man’s chin.
The Demon Dragon King, who barely avoided him by turning his head, looked at the three.
Psyche, deaf. And finally cyan.
[You really have a knack for making me angry.]
right after that.
The Demon Dragon King has disappeared.
Psyche, who had been tying him up, was left alone in the air, and Gwima and Xian also missed him.
In the blink of an eye, the huge body disappeared in an instant.
It was in the air even higher that it was discovered again.
There, an old man, not in the shape of a dragon, was looking this way and his eyes flashed.
[Meteor Strike.]
And stars were falling from the sky.
* * *
meteor shower.
It is a regular material that appears in stories that sing about the destruction of a world.
Xian could see with his own two eyes why this was so.
The sight of countless meteors falling towards the ground was truly doomed.
“Sniff.”
The ghost kicked off the ground and swung his sword.
His sword succeeded in slicing through several small meteors. But more than that was unreasonable.
No matter how hard he was, he couldn’t cut through all of this meteor shower.
As he struggled, an old man watched from high up in the sky.
The Demon Dragon King who took on a human form.
I don’t know why he transformed into a human form. Is it simply to drop the psyche or is there some condition to use magic.
But there was no time to think about it.
[draft! Come here! Grandpa too!]
The most urgent move was Psyche, the owner of this land.
She called Xian and Gwima together and dug into the ground.
It made a wedge of cold air, crushing and pushing away dirt and stone, and went deep.
I want the land that passed by to be a shield to block the meteor.
[Do something useless.]
The demon dragon king’s murmur resonated in their ears as they dug underground.
It was a voice full of laughter.
Psyche dug into the ground, and suddenly the surroundings had changed to a place that looked like a ruin rather than just a dirt floor.
The place where Psyche fell asleep to regain her strength.
[Anyway, watch your head and keep your mouth shut!]
Xian and Guima followed her instructions.
And soon after.
thud!
The ground shook once loudly.
It was obviously a big vibration, but maybe it was so far away that it didn’t shake too much.
Is this the end?
when you think so
Ku-gu-gu-gu-!
A series of shocks hit the basement.
Even though he wasn’t directly impacted, Xian felt as if all the bones in his body were being shattered.
Ku-gu-gu-gu-!
how long has it been like that
After what seemed like an eternity, Xian came to his senses.
His whole body was groaning and blood was oozing from everywhere, but fortunately he didn’t die.
The pain rose every time he flinched, as if all the bones were broken, but Xian removed the pile of stones and stood up.
Then I looked around.
Even though it was obviously dodged deep underground, it was no longer underground.
A crimson sunset was visible from above.
and.
“Psyche?”
They saw Psyche lying there, wrapped around them.
The scales of the whole body were split and the exposed flesh was crushed. So much blood was shed that it was about to form an ocean.
The appearance of being stretched out without strength.
“you… … .”
When Xian called, she forced her eyelids up.
[draft… … I’m sorry, but can I borrow your forearm again?]
Borrowing your forearm Like when you first came to hell?
[You were able to take the devil’s power, right? Take my strength.]
“what?”
That meant that he would soon hand over his power to himself and return to being a weak little snake like before.
But one thing is decidedly different from that time.
The power used to come to the hell world could be recovered, but the power absorbed by Xian could not be recovered.
Because the total amount of power itself will be lowered.
It was also said that his status as the great devil was downgraded.
[Don’t get me wrong. It’s not because you’re pretty. Because Seol-ah asked for you… … .]
Anyway, I couldn’t help but worry about it.
Psyche is different from the time of the psyche. Unlike the guy I met as an enemy, I met Psyche as an academy mate from the beginning.
however.
[First one.]
I see the Demon Dragon King muttering while looking down. There was no time to worry.
Sian slowly raised his hand.
