151 – The Turning Point (2)

Turning Point (2)

A sudden battle of ranks began.

The claws of the second commander instantly carve out the place where the third was.

“Ugh!”

If you allow even one attack, Third dies.

That’s something she knows best, being Second’s childhood friend.

And Third had no choice but to respond with tears in his eyes at the fact that Second had carried out such an attack.

She knows. The second is sincere. She is attacking with the sincere intention of expelling her from the Demon King’s army.

But she knows. She also knows that Second isn’t sincere.

She knows that he doesn’t hate her and that he doesn’t want to exclude her for the sake of the Demon King’s army.

The second person she knows is someone who pretends to be indifferent but is considerate, and seems to look down on others but is also respectful.

An overprotective person who takes risks by constantly challenging the monster called First to protect her.

A person who trusts his instincts and boldly steps into danger.

There’s no way a person like that would exclude her just because he feels bad.

“then……!”

You just have to prove it.

Second, even if he says harsh things, he never lies.

If you show enough strength that he doesn’t have to worry, he’ll listen to you.

She also tried hard. She couldn’t be protected by Second forever. So she looked at Second’s back and tried hard to take Third’s place.

“I’ll show you that I’m not the same as I used to be!”

Third dodged Second’s attack by a mere sheet of paper.

Because I admired Second, I wanted to get closer to his movements.

So even if your physical ability is relatively lacking, you can still catch up.

And from here on out, it’s her unique strength. The way she uses weapons that only the strong can use.

Chomp!

With a flick of her wrist, various throwing weapons hidden between her sleeves burst out. Means to utilize her abilities.

All sorts of magical creatures are instantly scattered into the air.

The number of dark magic items increases as they become entangled, twisted, and fly away.

Realities hidden in fantasy.

And with her power, even those illusions become real.

‘Even if the second can distinguish between the real and the fake!’

There are more than one or two hidden secrets that have been spread from the beginning. It is impossible to distinguish and avoid all of them.

The second’s judgment is obvious.

“joy!”

With a simple wave of his hand, he can blow all of the scattered dark energy from Third into the air.

The second way is for those who dislike bothersome things and prefer simple methods.

During this series of events, a clone is created and the figure is hidden.

Of course, if it’s Second, you can find her body.

But what if your vision is so distracting that you can’t deal with it even though you know it?

Flashy, flashy, and eye-sore.

With the mindset of completely deceiving not just the eyes but the senses.

“… … .”

My eyes hurt and my ears feel stuffy.

Second realized that she had become stronger thanks to Third’s power.

Yes, he became stronger to protect the third. He worked hard to reach the top.

And it was the same for Third. While Second was constantly looking back and reaching out, Third was diligently walking forward while looking at his back.

This is the result.

and…….

“I’m sorry, but.”

The second did not become the strongest.

I have been trying my best without being able to defeat even the First, let alone the Demon King.

But what can’t be done can’t be done.

“It’s not possible with your abilities.”

“Cough?!”

No matter how hard you try, the third can’t beat the second.

Her ability lies in deceiving others from the beginning, and she is clearly a naturally talented liar.

But the second knows the third. He can be proud of knowing it better than anyone else.

The sadness hidden behind her boastful antics.

Tears hidden behind laughter.

“Because I’ve been watching you all along.”

Because everyone was watching.

While everyone else despised her, only she was able to see her tears (lácrĭma).

“Huh?!”

Nails that dig into Third’s body as if trying to cut out his heart.

Not a hit, but a long hit.

A second handicap that was adjusted to avoid piercing the heart.

But the impact was still powerful and Third vomited blood.

A body shriveled in pain.

Second, who didn’t miss the gap, grabbed Third’s hands and lifted her into the air.

“it’s over.”

“Keuk… … . Ugh… … .”

Third, who was much smaller than Second, was hanging with both hands held onto one of Second’s hands.

The pain had not subsided, and Third, still spitting out blood and breath and with tears in his eyes, glared at Second.

“Lacryma.”

“Do not be ridiculous!”

puck!

Even though Third was hanging in the air, he did not stop resisting.

Of course, with a body that is far behind, there is no way that you can inflict significant damage to the second even if you kick hard.

An action that is literally nothing more than a struggle.

The second, who was watching the third’s struggles, closed his eyes tightly.

‘Okay, this should be enough.’

It’s okay if you don’t have confidence anymore. It’s different from when you just stood there and endured bullying like before.

Even if he doesn’t have confidence now, there will be no problem for Third to survive.

“Never come near the Demon King’s castle again.”

bang!

Second quickly knocked Third to the ground, knocking her unconscious, and then quietly slipped out of her tent.

Now it’s his moment to pay the price.

***

The Demon King, Belphegor, spends most of his days sleeping. There’s a reason he’s called the Demon King of Sloth.

She was lazy from birth and had strength that did not match her.

No, maybe that’s the price you pay for that power.

A home that she, who is extremely lazy, cannot come up with on her own.

that…….

“In short, you could say that you have shouldered all the karma that the Manmata clan should have originally carried. It is a difficult force for one being to bear.”

“So, what are you trying to say? I’m sleepy now.”

This is what happened when I ascended to the throne of the Demon King and asked for peace among humans.

I remember the emperor I met back then. I remember the man who had become a monster while mocking her by destroying her vain dreams with logic.

The peace that Belphegor had hoped for was easily shattered, and she was left feeling bad about having failed in the first thing she did after ascending to the throne as Demon King.

The person who contacted her at that time was an old man with a kind expression right in front of her.

The former Pope of the Celestial Church.

It was the appearance of a madman who dared to bring down God.

“They say that great power comes with a great price. However, those who possess great power often have trouble exercising that power.”

“I’m fine?”

“Don’t you often ask? Actually, that’s what it is.”

“If you hang it on your ear, it’s an earring. If you hang it on your nose, it’s a nose ring.”

“Anyway, the fact is that even the god I serve is the same in that he is unable to handle that power.”

The Pope who degrades God.

Belphegor could not understand what the madman was saying.

Is it because the spirit is weak that it cannot fully draw out its natural strength?

So, among the countless prayers, only a few are answered?

Because it’s weak?

It’s funny.

It was ridiculous that I had such high hopes for the name Cheonshin, and that I thought I could easily bear that power.

What makes you think that you can handle the power of a god when you’re all old and have to deal with things today or tomorrow?

It’s just greed.

When an old man approaches death, he suddenly becomes scared and looks for a way to survive.

And because he knows his own ugliness, he tries to justify his actions with all kinds of excuses.

“Well, I guess it doesn’t matter.”

Belphegor was in a bad mood.

It was shameful to meet the emperor, be humiliated, and be driven out.

The being who made contact in that situation. The proposal made by the Pope of the Celestial Church.

“So, what did you tell me to do?”

“I will summon the god, and you will defeat him.”

“Me? Do you think I can do it?”

“Yes, your power will be enough. There will be preemptive measures, so we just need to usurp that power.”

“Huh.”

It was suspicious.

However, Belphegor, who was starting to find everything annoying, accepted the offer and ended up dropping the celestial spirit.

The Pope’s prepared precautions blinded the angel, and the angel, who had powers that were not commensurate with his abilities, was easily struck down by Belphegor’s blow.

The series of events was short, but I felt tired as if I had aged by decades in that one moment.

But eventually they did it.

If there was one thing that was surprising.

“You hold all that power. It is not my power to hold.”

“what……?”

The old man, who thought he was only trying to usurp the power and position of God, had no desire for it.

Belphegor, who had been secretly considering betrayal, could not understand why the Pope would so readily give in to everything.

What on earth are you up to?

It was so uncomfortable that he wanted to ask, but Belphegor couldn’t.

“Over there! The light fell over there!”

“Oh my God, Pope! What the hell have you done with this terrible magic and divinity…?”

Because she had to run away.

If she had the power of a god, it would not be a problem to destroy the Celestial Sect, but she couldn’t help it because she was concerned about the Pope’s existence.

She got into the carriage she had prepared and left the place.

From that day on, she never saw the Pope again. Yes, she was left with only questions in her heart.

That kind smile.

Those crazy eyes.

‘Oh, so that’s what it was.’

Belphegor realized that what he was seeing was a dream.

And the moment I realized that, I knew what the Pope meant.

‘You were just like me.’

The Pope of the Celestial Church.

An old madman whose name I can’t even remember.

‘So you were a priest?’

He was trying to save the demon world.
