Apocalypticists who called for the destruction of the world were suppressed by Ajibika’s strong oppression.
As times get more difficult, heroes rise up, writers write masterfully, and artists create rare works. After returning to Quartz, I leisurely watched the world go by. Demons poured out from time to time in the devil’s land that floated above the sky. In the distant past, mankind experienced the horrors of primitive times when people lived in caves to avoid beasts. Amidst the chaos, the empire was shaken by economic and political problems. As long as there is a devil’s nest above your head, the chaos will only increase and not get better.
Depressing news was heard dozens of times a day.
An endless night continued. The corpses in the grave came back to life. In the Western Continent, demon followers took over the fallen kingdom. The small devils poured down like rain and swarmed around like a swarm of locusts, harvesting humans.
“It will be destroyed.”
The flow is the same.
It was a very familiar sight to me.
The destruction of the Earth also occurred in this way.
It was more violent, promiscuous, and resistant-
The overall steps were the same.
If we leave things like this, this world will definitely perish.
But it’s not too late. It is a destruction that can be prevented.
If we compare it to tteokbokki, it has a mild taste.
This means that a 500ml bottle of Coolpis is spicy enough to overpower you.
“When is it, damn it?”
I’ve been waiting for ‘them’ so far, but it seems like I don’t have time to relax.
I went straight to Ushas. After conquering Lucael, Ushas did not hide his strange aura, so much so that his evil power could be felt from a thousand miles away. He met her in an old monastery at the top of Mount Lotziel called the Garden of the Three Gods.
Sigh-!
Loose hinges made a loud noise. When I opened the rotten wooden door that was on the verge of breaking, I was greeted by a bright monastery with sunlight shining brightly. I slightly turned my head and looked outside. It was dark as no sunlight reached the devil’s nest above our heads.
“What are you doing stuck here?”
It wasn’t his intention, but when he saw Ushas, he got a little angry and his tone became harsh.
Ushas was praying in a pious posture under the sunlight.
Who on earth are you praying to, tsk.
I stood still and waited for the prayer to end. Finally, Ushas stood up.
I started with the main point. I didn’t want to talk long.
“What are you going to do?”
I am not stupid.
It was all Ushas’s plan.
From harvesting Lucael to me killing Descartes.
And he also brought about the gigantic devil continent in the sky.
Ushas slowly turned his head and looked at me.
“under.”
For a moment, I burst into laughter.
She is God’s representative.
Her beautiful appearance is dared to be compared to that of the goddess of beauty.
She is a beauty of peerless beauty that cannot be compared to anyone else in the human world.
As soon as the prince of the Western Continent saw Ushas, he praised him.
Ushas was surrounded by dazzling sunlight, but rather than being buried, the sunlight seemed to decorate her. It shone brighter than the sunlight. Sometimes there are people who cause wonder just by their appearance. Ushas was unique among those types of people. For a moment, he surprised even me.
But my feelings immediately went back and forth between heaven and hell.
Against my will, my eyes reflected her true being.
In a work created by God, he became a messenger that even the devil fears.
I mustered up the courage to ask the woman with white bones again.
“There’s something that big over your head, aren’t you going to go kill it?”
Ushas chuckled. In an instant, she changed from a woman with white bones to a saint again.
“You’re stupid.”
Even if it’s shitty, in the end, Ushas is my older sister who shares the same blood as me. He didn’t want to criticize his family (sincerely), but no matter how much he tried to give Yusha’s cunning smile a good modifier, only one word came to mind. She Ushas is not a saint but a temptress.
“Are you going to catch and kill every bug that’s infested?”
“Yes?”
“You have to make it come out on its own so it can’t escape.”
Ushas stared greedily at the earth above the window, as if it were delicious food.
“You would think that bugs came out on purpose to find food. Hehehe.”
Prey.
After all, Ushas is dangerous.
“It’s as if you’re going to use people as ‘bait.’”
“Well then, why not?”
I calmed myself down by taking deep breaths.
“No, it’s really great. “I feel really fortunate that my older sister is on the same side as me.”
“That’s honest. Thank you, my dear sister.”

After some time, Melissa summoned the twins.
Melissa said the devil had found a way to ‘worship’.
Seven Demon Lords, the kings of demons recorded in the Book of Raziel.
Melissa said.
“That ceiling is just a tiny part of hell. However, now that a crack has occurred, this world will gradually assimilate into the vaster hell. The road is open. Now all that remains is the ‘feast’.”
The twins each wanted to leave to hunt down the demon king or an equally powerful demon. Leave this world and go beyond hell. I stood between them and said nothing. Melissa asked, narrowing her eyebrows.
“I guess you’re reluctant?”
“… “The world is dangerous.”

Demons are rampant.
Hope was for twins. However, they will be absent from this world for the time being. This is not arrogance. It is a realistic judgment. I guess the only hope left for humans is me.
“It would be dangerous without me. The empire has fallen, and my father… Instead of running away, you will fight and die.”
“You fool. “Are you going to play a boring hero with a desirable prey?”
“It’s not that big of a deal. only… uh… “Does the world just need me?”
“Bingshin. “Do whatever you want.”
Melissa’s nine tails wagged.
Then three gates rose from the ground.
It is the gate of hell. A terrible door embossed with images of people suffering all kinds of torture.
It was similar to the door leading to hell where the holy relics of suffering were obtained.
When the first door opened, Lanista was the first to leave.
He crossed the gates of hell with a face filled with madness.
I felt sorry for the devils.
The second gate was crossed by Ushas. Before crossing, Ushas looked at me and raised the corners of his mouth.
I got goosebumps.
Melissa said to me before crossing the third door.
“At first glance, it looks like a vast continent, but it is only an abyss temporarily connected by Descartes’ malice. “Assimilation has not yet occurred, so if we lose our ‘owner’, we will return to the rules.”
I slightly bowed my head towards Melissa.
“Thanks.”
Since my gratitude towards Ushas was false, I could say anything. But she was really grateful to Melissa. But for some reason, it felt shameful to hear her words of gratitude come out of her mouth.
“Damn.”
After swearing, Melissa crossed the door. The airflow in the space, which had been swirling like a storm, returned to normal. I stayed where the twins left and thought for a while. Should I at least wish for good luck? Even though I would be facing a demon greater than Descartes, I wasn’t worried at all.
“hmm.”
As I was about to go back, my eyes stung as if I had been pricked by a needle. Cheonan Tong floated on its own. What the eyes show. I found a key buried shallow where the gates of hell had protruded. I took out the keys, shrugged my shoulders and put them in my pocket. A key with fox tail feathers, that’s too blatant.

It was truly a flood of devils.
Humans resisted the attacks of demons that poured in without warning.
The Sternil Kingdom was once again in a national lockdown, completely blocking access to outsiders, and I was unable to contact even Hugo von Silaren, the guardian of the wall and my disciple. The Magic Tower frequently dispatched battle wizards to assist in battles and held internal scholar conferences to prepare for the worst.
The surviving lords and remnants of the Free Cities willingly entrusted their wealth and technology to the empire.
The technology they were hiding was amazing.
The technology of the Free Cities has greatly improved the quality of weapons, making it possible for even ordinary people to fight against low-level demons. The Empire was provided with the Free City’s technology on the condition that it help rebuild the city after the war.
I mainly hunted high-level demons that occupied the area. Those who can fight against high-level demons are the Black Knights of Ushas, the Spiritual Beast Knights of Starfall, or an Archmage of five circles or higher or a Master-level warrior. And there were only elite magic soldiers. The damage caused by the high-ranking devil was like a disaster.
However, with the help of the demi-human army that came from the land beyond and my efforts to hunt down high-ranking demons, the situation gradually got better than the chaos at the beginning.
Once the Eastern Continent stabilized.
Finally, the Emperor of the Empire, Knight of the Lake Libera, took the initiative and began the operation to recapture the kingdom of the Western Continent. The sea was also teeming with demons, but they could not withstand King Materand’s fleet.
A total of 50,000 elite troops.
The landing operation was successful and succeeded in recapturing nearly half of the kingdom union, starting with the Kingdom of Kalam on the western continent, within a few weeks.
It seemed like humanity’s counterattack was successful.
But the Demon Continent was still floating overhead.
With the appearance of new demons that were not even recorded in the Book of Raziel, the tide turned again.
The tense power struggle between humanity and demons was unstoppable.
There was only one way.
That huge continent is also hell, and if it were an abyss, it would have a master.
Killing the guy.
Simple missions or more dangerous operations than anything else.
An attack on the Demon Continent was planned under my leadership.

Allied emergency meeting.
At the national meeting attended by the commanders of the Allied Forces on the Eastern and Western continents and the king’s representatives, there were some I knew and some I did not. To them, each of whom reviewed the agenda with a solemn look, at this moment, national disputes seemed like nothing more than a minor issue. The most important issue at the third national meeting was the plan I submitted.
A noisy conference hall. In a chaotic atmosphere.
There was an old man glaring at me.
Palobu von Habdevirk, vice-governor of the Union of Kingdoms and inspector general of the Union, is Vice-Chairman of the Union.
In short, it was the backbone of the Allied Forces.
He was the only one who voted against my plan.
“Polestar King.”
As soon as the old man opened his mouth, the hall became quiet.
His words were powerful, and other countries’ leaders knew it.
“Are you going to go on an expedition to the Demon Continent, where the odds of victory are impossible to even predict, ignoring the fearful people and expending enough troops to rebuild the national defense?”
I knew you were going to whine.
“Inspector Habdevirk, how many demons have you killed?”
“Does it matter?”
“I killed over hundreds of thousands of them.”
It’s not wrong. Every time the bottomless pit collapsed, that many demons would have been buried.
I reminded them why I am called the Pillar of Dawn.
“The current situation is nothing more than a war of attrition. Do not think of the devil as a monster lurking beneath the earth. If you don’t close the door, they will continue to pour in. Until all traces of humans are completely erased from this land. The ominous earth above our heads is also just an abyss. The only way is to close the gates of hell. “The longer we delay the operation, the greater the damage will be.”
He, who was silent, answered belatedly.
“Whether you succeed or not is important. “If we fail, there is no salvation for us.”
“It will definitely succeed.”
“certainly. Does that mean there is no failure?”
“I’m sure there’s no way you can fail as long as I’m here.”
Those who saw me were briefly amazed.
Those who only heard it were surprised, but did not doubt it.
There is something built up. I’m not saying this for no reason. It was a phenomenon predicted from Melkaran. I’ve been working hard on ‘PR’ for several years now, and the current atmosphere in the conference room was merely the fruition of my efforts.
The inspector nodded, but the wrinkles between his eyebrows remained.
“Okay, just like you said, we will gather elite troops and say that the operation will be successful thanks to your efforts as always. The problem is that that ominous continent is floating higher than the clouds. Humans can’t fly. It’s impossible even with magic. It might be possible with the Free City’s airship, but unstable machines can cause unpredictable accidents. If we use the method mentioned above, we can never allow the right to call in troops. Then how could the Little King take ten thousand armies across the firmament and go to the Demon Continent?”
He had ‘time’. The atmosphere flows in the opposite direction again. A noisy conference hall.
But this was also expected.
“Don’t worry about that.”
I grinned and took out the ‘key’ from my pocket and shook it.
“Because I bought a round-trip ticket.”
