I’m the Demon King, but There Are Too Many Heroes - I’m the Demon King, but There Are Too Many Heroes chapter 267

267. The Tower, the Demon Realm, and the First Demon Emperor

“Sit down.”

match-

As the demon world lightly applauded, a table, chairs, and a set of refreshments appeared.

“What are you going to do with the car? black tea? green tea? Jasmine? Just say anything.”

“coffee.”

“Coffee is good. Its bitter taste is excellent.”

The demon world poured tea into the teapot. When pouring his own, the scent of jasmine came into the Berge’s cup and spit out the coffee.

“There is nothing so strange to see. After all, this isn’t the real world, it’s an imaginary world.”

“Know.”

“Then what should we talk about first?”

“Do you have any plans to tell me?”

“Sure. I was ready to answer anything if you would come to see me. And now that I’m here, there’s no reason I can’t keep my promise.”

That unconditional favor offended Berger’s heart. But I was curious, so I had to ask.

“You were involved in bringing me back?”

“Yeah, I thought you were curious. This mouth is square. Ummm, do you know how to do regression?”

“Isn’t that turning back time?”

“No. Even ten thousand dimensions can’t run like that. turn back time? Time flows equally in all universes. Do you think you can turn back time in all that universe? All of the countless dimensions?”

“then?”

“You just have to take your soul out and send it back to the past. Much easier than turning back time.”

But nonetheless, it was touching the absolute law of ‘time’.

“It means that if I, as a high-level person, touches it carelessly, the level may be lowered as a side effect.”

“Is it an evolutionary failure?”

“Did Arain say that? right. Araine was very close to the higher dimensions. Perhaps in a few more decades, I would have been able to leap to a higher level.”

But Alain didn’t. I didn’t do that exactly.

“The higher dimensions are great compared to the lower ones, but there really isn’t much the dimension can do with willpower.”

At best, it’s just about hiring an agent. You cannot project a force directly.

“In such a situation, why would a single female want to kill him? What should I do?”

“Even if I can’t evolve, I must survive for now.”

“Well, he’s lucky. Because it was close to a higher dimension, so I sacrificed it and saved my life. Above all else, there was an existence called you.”

“I mean?”

“You can’t be good at everyone just because you’ve regressed, right? Just because you give and send a memory to a single buggy that has nothing, doesn’t mean that he becomes a demon like you.”

“It’s not something anyone can do.”

It was natural. Defeating Jason was only possible because he was Berge, and because he was a great Demon Dragon.

Berger savored coffee.

pooh-

I spit it out as it was in the most sour and astringent taste.

“What is this?”

“Coffee.”

“Is this coffee? Have you never had coffee?”

“I have eaten. But after ten thousand years, I forgot what it tasted like.”

“·················ogue.”

Berger threw the coffee cup away.

“It’s too much. That’s what I was prepared for.”

“Let’s keep talking.”

“What. In the process, the person he was trying to bring back was not the person of Arain, but the demon of the demon realm. Wouldn’t it be over if I told you this far?”

“Did I need your help, Demon Realm? And you helped him? why?”

“I was bored.”

The demon shrugged his shoulders.

“As you may know, my will and my power were split into 50, so it was very weak. So there was no one I could talk to.

To be precise, there was no one who could wake me up and talk to me, who was sleeping deep inside the tower. The will of the spirit world was busy playing alone. But Arain was able to do that. It was a dimension in which dialogue appeared for the first time in 9,000 years. you won’t know How lonely and moved I was.”

“Yeah, I got it up to that point. But what is it that you have been waiting for the day you will meet me?”

“At first, I just wanted Araine to do well.”

“Are you invading?”

“Aggression is done by the demons, not me. Of course, it is also for the Demon Realm.”

“What do you mean?”

“If you keep listening, you will know anyway.”

I was curious, but nodded. There was plenty of time anyway.

“I just wanted you to kill Jason and save Araine. Rather, I wished that Arain could hold out better and kill more demons.”

“If anyone hears it, you are like Araine, not the Demon Realm.”

Berge felt strange at the subtle hatred. Is the level of demons living in that they really hate demons?

“You will know this anyway. Anyway, I wasn’t very interested in you until then. But you.”

you.

“The tower was put together.”

tower. It was the split power and consciousness of the will of the demon realm. One by one, it started to merge.

The shattered mind began to return to its original state.

“It was my will to become a tower. But I never wanted to live like this in my entire life. He didn’t tell me that I couldn’t do it my way when we merged.”

“What else do you mean?”

“Okay, now let’s get to the point.”

The demon world suddenly took over the atmosphere.

“Are you ready?”

“Does it even require grand preparations?”

“The past tends to be very inflated. In particular, Ernst Cain-Azel is sacred to your demons like a god, right? Especially from demon dragons.”

Ernst Cain Azel. It was the name of the great first demon king.

“Maybe it was at one time.”

“Isn’t that right now?”

“Because of that damn standard, I was made fun of by the warriors and all my actions stopped from the moment they were denied.”

“Heh heh, it’s fun. Well, I searched for that, so I can’t like standard.”

Hmm. Demon world, Kratin wiped my chin.

“Where should I start talking?”

yes, this would be nice

“You know what? Dragons are called dimensional guardians.”

“know.”

Dragons indeed have many nicknames. Lazy bystanders, dimensional wanderers, dimensional guardians, etc.

However, the most famous among them is, of course, the guardian of the dimension. A watchman who guards the dimension.

“Then why is it known?”

“Defending the dimension?”

“I don’t know why you keep the dimension? Well, of course. I had to tell you why, because I was split into towers and went on to conquer dimensions.”

That’s right.

Whoa, he spit smoke out again.

“It is because they call us dimensional will, but we cannot directly intervene.”

“You mean indirectly intervening through the dragon?”

“Yeah, if a dimension becomes a mutant, the dimension itself will weaken, so we have to create an appropriate agent to prevent that. A dragon who has been slapped on the cheeks of other races since birth and is familiar with the dimension is the best fit for it.”

So are you a dimensional guardian?

“If I had said this far, would you have understood?”

“Was the Demon Dragon the Guardian of the Demon Realm?”

“It was like that ten thousand years ago. But, as you know, the dragon race is not that diligent.”

“I admit…”

Berge did not, but he was special, and most dragons did. I was born as a natural ruler, so I didn’t put any effort into it.

From birth, the lazy race was the dragon.

But if you think about it, the wall breaks if you just sleep, so do you really need to work hard? If it wasn’t for the desire to become a Demon King as quickly as possible, Berger might not have become a Demon Lord.

Well, all demon dragons who became demon kings are like that. That’s why their number is extremely rare, and among the same people, they are called a separate species.

“However, the demon realm ten thousand years ago was truly a mess. As you know, all the bastards called demons are war fanatics with missing screws, right?”

That sounds right. There was no demon born without strength and fighting instinct. The struggle becomes a battle, and the battle becomes a war. And to find a stronger power to win the war. It was the demons that did anything for that purpose.

Just looking at the invasion of another dimension for power gives the answer.

“The demons fought really tiringly. It went on for thousands of years, and its madness reached its peak ten thousand years ago.”

Divided into hundreds of kingdoms, wars were waged every day. Dozens of them perished every day and repeated new establishments. Rebellion was commonplace.

“In the process, they began to covet more power.”

Asmodians can absorb the power of other demons. That way you grow stronger.

But who can’t? I’m weak, so should I just sit still and face it?

rude sound. If they were like that, they didn’t deserve to be called demons.

“A kingdom has begun to covet the power of a dimension.”

That was the beginning.

“When one guy started, he did the same thing as everyone else competed. did you understand These damn assholes were using evil to extort the source of my power!”

Berge remembered Alain. Did he say that in a future he did not return, Jason went to the brink of destruction, coveting the source of the dimension?

I thought Jason was crazy too, but the fundamentals were different.

Jason was still aiming for another dimension called Arain, but these madmen were trying to scrape away the dimension in which they lived.

At that moment, Berge recalled an important point.

“A dragon? Didn’t the demon dragons who were your agents come forward?”

“Yeah, that’s the story from now on. The guys went out. But I couldn’t let go of that peculiar laziness. Especially Ernst, he was at the top of it all.”

“·················ogue.”

Is it an illusion that the back story is somehow predictable?

“Ernst, who could not stand my long training, finally raised his heavy body, but already deprived of his enormous source, the Demon Realm was heading towards the end.”

The source was the energy that made up the dimension. When it disappears, the dimension loses its vitality. At the point where they were extorted to a level that they could not recover by themselves, it could be said that the demons rode themselves on a runaway wagon running towards the end.

“Anyway, he led the demon dragons into the chaotic battlefield.”

He turned his attention to the affairs of the demon realm and seized the demon dragons who lived their own lives and merged them into one. So I climbed to the position of the rod.

And one by one, from the neighboring kingdoms, they began to occupy them by force.

resistance? There were no demons who dared to fight on an equal footing in front of dozens of demon dragons. Anyway, the Lord who leads them is the famous First Demon Emperor.

His method was extremely simple. If you don’t listen, they grab you and kill you if you resist. Everything was sorted out by force alone.

“The war was over and the demon realm was unified. And finally, the era of peace has arrived…well, you’re like lazy bastards of demon dragons. My heart is ruptured, and if you fix it later, will it regenerate?”

The war is over, but the line of irreversibility has already been crossed.

The devil was sick. It’s too late to recover on its own.

“But I didn’t want to die. Why do I have to die engulfed in the madness of demons? And Ernst also didn’t want the Demon Realm to be destroyed.”

Maybe it was because he didn’t want to go through the hardships of migrating to another dimension when his life was short.

“Damn you.”

In any case, the interests of the dimension and the Absolute coincided.

“And I came to a conclusion. If we can’t restore it ourselves, let’s take someone else’s and restore it.”

“that is.”

“Yes, this is the beginning of the war of dimensional conquest.”

However, dimensional conquest was not that simple.

No matter how high the demon realm was, no matter how crazy the demons were in battle, the dimensional bulkhead was not easily penetrated.

“It was a problem even going through it. I will go and get some of your strength. If you do, that dimension is ‘Oh, yes. “Take it.”

Naturally, the dimension will begin to resist. I will cut down the invaders with interference and sharpen the blade of the name of a hero.

“Ernst wanted me to be a barrier with that solution. I asked him to break through the bulkhead with my own power and protect the demons.”

He said he would build a tower and split his power into 50 pieces.

“You accepted it?”

“then? Death and then death, I was a body destined for destruction.”

At first, there were no options. That’s how the tower was built.

“And Ernst made the standard.”

“…standard.”

At that hateful name, Berge grinded his teeth.

“Heh heh, I understand. It’s a good thing.”

“Is it just a matter of being worthy of it? No matter how you look at it, it is a stupid mass of evil that was created to collectively kill demons.”

The demon realm nodded at the growl of Berger.

“okay. That’s right.”

“…is that right?”

Berge closed his eyes blankly.

“Extracting emotions and magic more efficiently? Raising warriors and eating them deliciously? Hahahaha, that’s just a really convincingly written bullshit. The real purpose of standard is to kill more demons.”

From the mouth of the demon realm, the first demon king was saying that he created a standard to kill demons.

“…the first demon king said that?”

“Yeah, think about it. Although the demons were suppressed with the power of Ernst and the Demon Dragons, their nature and power did not go anywhere. If I suddenly ask those who have been at war all their lives to live in peace, will they follow suit?”

No way.

“They also gain strength through the war of dimensional conquest. It means that the stronger ones get stronger.”

So, here’s the question.

“Will those who became stronger through conquest become quietly pacifists?”

“…it will make a bigger mess.”

“Yeah, that’s it! What about the demons who want to use it even if humans have power, but want to use it without it? It wasn’t even worth worrying about. The moment Ernst died, the Demon Realm was bound to face a more terrible ruin than ever before.”

No less, Ernst was an old dragon with a short lifespan.

So, the first demon king and standard put their heads together and pondered.

“How can we send more demons to the goal using conquest as an excuse?”

That’s how the ‘Demon King’s standard’ was born.

“It is a sacrifice of cattle for the sake of saving the dimension. In the first place, if you want to invade another dimension, you need to know that you will die too. Everything was done by the demons themselves.”

The demon’s eyes sank coldly.

“But the problem is…”

“The demons fought so well.”

“Yeah, they were like crazy people who had been fighting the dimension for thousands of years. Even with that kind of bullshit, he managed to conquer it.”

It was Arain who was blocked for the first time.

“Well, after that, you will know.”

“Jason and I showed up.”

“Yeah, and now is the moment. In fact, my illness was cured about 2,000 years ago. But like I said, it wasn’t on my mind to go back. But for two thousand years, not a single one has ever thought of putting the tower together.”

“That’s it, isn’t there a clause in the standard not to fight between demon lords?”

“It’s not that I and Ernst are less. It was added at will by some kind of demon king in the future.”

“Add?”

“Yes, except for Ernst, who knows the truth, other demons did not know that the Demon Realm was doing this to survive. I just saw it as an opportunity to show the world the greatness of the demon realm. But do they sometimes fight among themselves?”

“Right.”

admit it If you’re a Demon King, that’s enough.

If it wasn’t for the standard prohibiting battles between demon lords at the beginning of Advent from Berge, I would have seen blood from the first meeting with Draxon.

“therefore.”

Huruk-

The devil savored the tea.

“How do you feel about the new Demon Emperor who has heard all the truth?”

“Well.”

I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t feeling weird.

Although he lost his life in one failure and hated the standard, he was also a demon and a demon dragon.

I grew up listening to countless envy of the first demon king who made the demon world great, and great ancestors.

I thought that the war of dimensional conquest and the standard had more ambitious ambitions and meanings.

“I was thinking of getting rid of the standard when I became a demon king.”

“I understand.”

“But at the same time, I actually thought that the standard was right and there might be a deeper meaning that I didn’t know about.”

But there was no such thing. The standard was fundamentally wrong.

so.

“So, I can get rid of it with more peace of mind.”

“Is that over?”

“Then what more should I do?”

He had respect for the first demon king. Even demon dragons are the great ancestors and the emperor who built the demon realm, I have been told since childhood.

But that’s it. because it’s a dragon No matter how great the ancestors are, they are strangers in the end.

“But knowing this is…”

“Only you. There is something written about the identity of the tower in the depths of the Demon Castle, but the former Demon Emperor is dead.”

“Did you write it down?”

“If you at least know what a tower is and what functions it has, you won’t do anything stupid.”

That’s it too.

Berger nodded.

“But now what? Since the towers have been merged and the demon realm has been completely restored, is there no need for a war of dimensional conquest anymore?”

“I don’t need it for my recovery, but I need it for my future.”

“Right.”

If the demon realms suddenly stop fighting the war of conquest, there is no way we can stay still.

At first, even if you can press it with force, if Berger weakens or dies, and an absolute strong person does not appear, the demon realm will become a mess again. And we will repeat the same history.

“Then you don’t have to worry about it.”

“okay. The war of conquest must continue… What?”

“Isn’t this the story after I died anyway? Do I really need to be interested in that?”

“As a demon king, what do you mean by that now?”

“The work of future generations should be left to them.”

“You fucking demon dragon! You don’t think I’m doing it because it’s annoying!”

“It’s not that it’s bothersome, it’s that you can’t do it.”

“what?”

“If you split the tower again, will you go in?”

“…that’s it.”

Of course not.

Ten thousand years ago, Kratin was torn apart and became a part of the tower because otherwise he would have to die.

Since there is no back, I split my will and crushed my mind.

“But this time, you don’t have to! At the time, I was a sick person, and now I am in perfect condition. I don’t even need to share until my mind fades.”

“Even if you can, I don’t like it.”

“what?”

“As you said, a tower is, after all, an object with the power of a higher level called the Demon Realm…”

Should I hand this over to the other demon lords?

“You still don’t know the Demon Dragon? I have no intention of doing that.”

“Hey, you bastard.”

“Don’t bother me anymore and get out.”

match-

Berge cut the connection with the tower.

The demonic scream has disappeared.
