The Devil’s Dead Child - Chapter 315



Only Noblemtl

#Episode 315, Heir

Xylox’s Seal Stone, Nepteon’s Arcanum, and Balrog’s Top.

‘I got Jeongdan… , Are there two left?’

I vaguely knew that I had to collect the three mythical pieces of trash and unseal them, but I wasn’t told about the specific process.

Now of course the method in my head is… It was much simpler than I expected.

Unlock each seal,

Making the released power my own.

… … Yes.

It was crazy, the process was literally simple and clear.

Who is Xylox?

An ancient Irregular who possessed powers comparable to those of the gods in a human body.

What about Nepteon?

A god who was the antagonist of Xylox.

And Balrog… .

The ultimate weapon that once represented the power of the Demon God.

After releasing such cruel beings on this land and suppressing them again… ,

Because it meant that all of that power had to be absorbed.

First of all, a place where someone has released at least one thing… The country is an enormous being that could return to the desolate.

In the end, looking at the plan as a whole, it means that no matter how careful my father was, he could not avoid the death of the humans on this land.

A human being who will die anyway.

A life that will disappear one way or another.

Illusions that will repeat themselves if they fail.

‘My father must have been gradually worn away by that irreplaceable process.’

Of course, the father has no right to decide the fate of other humans… .

‘Anyway, I’m the one who has to make that decision now… . Fuck you. I don’t know if it’s possible to subdue just one, but three… .’

It wasn’t just my sentiment that made my heart pound.

Because there was no ‘certainty’ even in my father’s memories. He only had the will to do it.

I also agreed that we needed to gather that much strength. No, I know that’s definitely true.

Entering the divine world itself was a gateway that required energy that was difficult to imagine (even now that he had inherited his father’s magic power).

Marduk is a god with greater power than Nepteon.

It will be an away game played at their home ground.

A lot of my strength will probably be lost in the process of reappearing in the divine world, and I will then have to fight Marduk with my remaining strength.

‘Furthermore, we need to prepare for variables such as the intervention of other gods. … ‘Now I know why he had to use the system.’

If I think about the obstacles I have to overcome in reverse,

I could see why Marduk had continued to bully people using chess pieces.

Even from the perspective of a god, appearing on this earth or directly projecting power into the human world would have consumed an enormous amount of power.

You might say it’s a good idea to expend a little bit of power, but considering that there are more than one god and that there are different levels of power, maintaining the power you have may have something to do with protecting your own hierarchy.

‘If that’s really the case… .’

Like the cumulonimbus cloud that hung over the tower that day – Marduk’s direct reaction means that it was actually something that should have been avoided even from him.

“So you were really upset that day?”

It’s just a harsh thing to say, and I was throwing it away like I was eating a meal, so I guess one of the things I said that day was a ‘seizure button’.

I looked up at the sky outside the window and tried to provoke him one more time.

Crash.

“Who do you talk to alone?”

Yushin suddenly opened the door and entered.

“Well, knock.”

“You must have known I was coming.”

“It could be just a passing road.”

“… “That’s shameless.”

Yushin had just returned to the palace.

He said that because it was their first meeting after exploding the sectatorium in his body.

“Should I be sorry when you’ve made up for what you did?”

“… … .”

“… Okay, seeing as it took longer than I expected, I guess I was a bit overworked. “It must have hurt a lot.”

It’s been less than two days since I came to the imperial palace (Lakh Vishia time), so Yushin is now standing in front of me after roughly ten hours of recovery time.

“… … .”

Yushin looked at me without saying a word.

‘not… ‘It was a glare.’

His face doesn’t show much emotion, but he seems to have gritted his teeth quite a bit before coming here.

“I couldn’t see Mia.”

Of course, I looked for Mia as soon as I arrived at the imperial palace.

The eyes of Yushin, who was facing him, wavered for a moment.

It was a question about whether I would tell Mia what was going on with Aaron.

I gave him a look that meant I wouldn’t do that.

Yushin then also made an expression saying he would cover up the hurt he had caused.

“… … “I may have even foreseen your coming.”

“Does this mean you’re avoiding me?”

“You knew it too, right?”

“… It did.”

Mia’s attitude during our previous meeting was definitely like that.

I see a future that involves me, but I don’t want to get involved,

They worry about me, but are afraid of things nearby… .

“Still, I thought something had changed just because you asked me to do it.”

“Maybe so. Mia is not a court lady. “Sometimes I take a quick tour of various places and check on the people.”

“… Right.”

Now that I think about it, I heard that Mia is being treated like a saint here.

“If you want to check, let’s ask around.”

“it’s okay. “If you don’t avoid it, you will meet it.”

Anyway, I had to go see my friends a few days later.

If I spent the full moon on Earth in Rak Vishia, I would have a whopping 45 days to spare, but right now I had to organize my thoughts, and I also had to go see my mother as soon as my plans were in order.

‘To my mother… ‘It would be better not to announce my father’s death.’

I thought it was the right thing to do not hide it, but I was worried that my condition might worsen as I was barely recovering from the shock of losing my child.

‘okay… . ‘I think it’s better if you don’t know until the end.’

If I succeed in killing Marduk… (Maybe there will be no next life) I will turn back time even if it means opening Chaos,

If I fail, both my mother and Seongyoon in this life will eventually die.

chin.

Yushin suddenly placed his hand on my shoulder.

“… ?”

Also, the guy’s bangs were blowing in the wind as he stared at me in silence.

Hwiiing.

The wind blowing indoors around me.

“… … .”

His calm touch was just what brought me out of my thoughts.

At that moment, the wind died down.

To be exact, it was a swirling demonic energy, or more accurately, a vortex of emotions.

As thoughts about my mother connected to the sadness you felt, emotions that had been sealed within me were triggered.

“… “It won’t work either.”

I wanted to go see my mother right away, but my condition was still unstable.

“Rest.”

Yushin didn’t ask why and just walked away.

I nodded my head in gratitude and sat down in the chair.

Even excluding my father’s work, my mother would be worried if she saw a video of me… .

I wanted to see what he was doing, so I called out to Tagaros.

『Tagaros.』

-Master!

Tagaros responded immediately.

-I was worried because you didn’t find it for a long time.

There is no doubting his loyalty, but the concern that Targaroth just mentioned was not about my well-being, but about the future of his family.

However, for the head of a family that changed clans, that would be a natural concern.

-I asked how you were, but there was no answer… .

『Let’s go to Spain right away. You need eyes.』

-Spain… If so.

Tsutsutsu!

Tagaros appeared in front of me, prostrate on the floor and started talking loudly.

“Are you talking about the residence you used on Earth? … sorry.”

When he looked up at me, glanced around, and then lowered his head, he was apologizing for showing up without being summoned.

It looks like he was testing something in his own way.

‘Perhaps he just tried the same thing to check on me even when I didn’t answer and was blocked.’

In fact, it wasn’t that the tower didn’t try to summon Targaros.

Wouldn’t it have been better to have at least one more person on my side when I couldn’t break the restrictions yet?

Originally, it was a member of the clan that could be summoned by ignoring the only passage called the tower spell book, but when Marduk blocked the tower, that connection was cut off.

“okay. Hiding the existence… No, I will take control myself.”

“yes. then… .”

Targaros, who was getting up, stopped and asked.

“here is… Are you Rak-Vishia?”

I thought he was checking the location to find a route to his destination.

This is because having a subordinate appear by the lord’s side was a little different from crossing a dimensional gate on one’s own.

The guy may not have guessed my location before moving.

But doesn’t he start shaking all of a sudden?

“Uh, why… !”

“huh?”

Crash.

At that time, Yushin, who had left the room earlier, returned and opened the door.

“hmm… . I was wondering if some bastard had sneaked in. “It seems like you are the one under his control.”

“Oops!”

Targaros screamed with a white face and fell to the ground.

thud! thud! thud!

And then he hit his head and screamed.

“Zahak’s matriarch meets the Eight Demon Lords!”

“… … !”

8 Demon Lords… What?

My father’s memory of meeting Yu-shin in person already knew that he had transplanted the heart of a demon.

It’s definitely something you’ve said before.

In other words, it may not be true that Yushin is the Demon King, but since the appearance of the body is meaningless to the Transcendents, Tagaros could easily be mistaken.

‘But it was the devil’s.’

That too of the 8 Demon Lords.

no… So, was it a vacant position?

Perhaps it was a fact that Yushin didn’t know, but he made eye contact with me and then looked down at Tagaros.

“He’s the devil… . “I am nothing like that.”

thud!

thud!

However, Tagaros’ head exploded and he cried out, hitting the floor.

“I ended up serving another lord without knowing the existence of a rightful successor! Please forgive me!”

Now that I see it, it seems like it wasn’t an illusion and was properly accepted as succession.

In the first place, it may have been a usurpation of the powerful and self-respecting Demon World, but succession is succession.

Anyway, the comment was that it was a ‘mistake’ to become one of my subordinates, but I didn’t feel bad or anything.

Because it wasn’t an act of overdoing things just to survive, it was truly a miserable sight.

Rather, I felt sorry.

He became a subordinate and replaced his family members in order to push me out, but how bitter he must have been when the Demon King, who had already succeeded him, instead of a candidate, showed up.

The family contract could not be undone, and dead family members could not be revived.

Yushin laughed as if he was dumbfounded.

He looked at me and gave me a look telling me to do something about him, but since I know the situation, there is no way to appease him.

Honestly, at this moment, I was relieved that I didn’t have to keep my promise to Tagaros.

I’m sorry for not keeping my promise, but I also don’t want to waste time by going to the demon world.

“… Is there nothing I can do in this situation? Since you are the devil king, why don’t you help this family’s reputation?”

So I tried to pass it on to Yushin, but

“then… “It’s so noisy, I guess I should kill it.”

I couldn’t do that after hearing his callous words.

“!”

I quickly blocked Yushin’s path as he stretched out his hand.

Then Yushin laughed and said.

“ah… . This will work. “I will hand over the throne to you.”

“Fuck!”
