Duke’s Quadruplets Are All Overpowered Chapter 390

390

As expected, Hoyeon burst into tears and ran to her godmother. Haeju Joo, despite her weapon-like thorns, gently stroked Hoyeon with her leg and gave her sincere encouragement.

[This really breaks my heart. How hard could this little thing have been? I couldn’t pay attention to you because I was dealing with the Parakhos of Myogoong Mountain. However, now that you are in my arms, I will risk my life to protect you.]

“Thank you, Godmother. She suddenly lost her mother and thought she died while running away from an evil monster, but she met her benefactor and met Great Mother Iri.”

[Don’t worry. You are no different from my child. and.]

The giant spider Haeju looked at me and said.

[Thank you for killing the annoying temptress who lured my subordinates and ate them.]

“It was nothing… … .”

[I know you are not a monster.]

I couldn’t help but smile shyly.

Now, for the first time, a youkai who doubts my identity has appeared.

[However, you are also my guest and benefactor.]

I was worried. There are some good monsters, but most of them are strange creatures. I was worried that the godmother might be like that too, but Hae Joo was a really nice person, putting aside my concerns.

We followed Haeju Ju to a place called Bansa-dong on Myogongsan Mountain. Haeju Joo’s steps were quite fast, as was his size. The road was difficult. Hae Joo chose a path suited to her size. As a giant spider, it took him less than a few seconds to go down a fairly deep canyon, but he had to do acrobatics like a monkey to get me and Hoenn down. I was fine, but Hoyeon had a hard time chasing me and fell repeatedly. He offered to carry him on his back, but Hoyeon told him not to do so because it would embarrass him in front of his godmother.

“My knee is bleeding, kid.”

Only after falling four times and scraping her knee did Hoyeon calmly carry her on her back.

On the way, the godmother told me about the monsters of Mt. Myogoong.

A waterborne disease that lives at the foot of a mountain.

They are beast heads wearing armor and weapons. They are sentinels and monsters from outside. It was said that these people who lost their home after being caught up in the ‘war between other worlds’ were not dangerous as long as they did not invade their territory. The problem was the new monsters at the top of the mountain who claimed to be the owners of the mountain. It is a force made up of winged monsters, extremely vicious monsters, and they are explosive monsters that want to dominate the mountain by preying on the monsters of Myogoong Mountain.

They and the monsters of Bansa-dong have been fighting for over 30 years to become the master of Mt. Myogongsan.

And Haeju Joo was the owner of Bansa-dong and the leader who protected the monsters.

[Welcome, children.]

When we reached the lowest point of land, a cave called Bansa-dong finally appeared.

Bansa Cave was a straight cave, like an artificial tunnel, and was quite large. Inside the cave, there was a cavity the size of ten football fields, and although there was no gap in the ceiling so sunlight could not enter, it was quite bright. This was thanks to the luminescent moss that clung to the cave walls. There were dense stalactites on the ceiling of the cave, but they were not limestone. At first I thought it was because of moss, but upon closer inspection, I saw that it was a brilliant blue-green jade stone.

The demon world was like a crazy dream. The clouds come alive and move, and the earth runs on its own. It is a world where all kinds of environments are entangled and appear and disappear like a mirage. I’ve seen a lot of weird and wonderful sights over the past few weeks, but this is the first time I’ve seen something so beautiful.

“You look so beautiful, Godmother!”

Ho-yeon was also intoxicated by the beauty of Bansa-dong.

Hae Joo smiled brightly (even though he was a spider, he was definitely smiling).

[Bansa-dong is now your home. Take it easy. I think we should throw a party to thank you for your safety. I told you before I came, so please wait a moment.]

The monster loved parties. At Hae Joo-ju’s shout, all kinds of monsters came out from the cracks in the walls and ground of the Bansa-dong building. In the center of the cave, there was a large, circular stage like a concert hall, but now it turned out to be a dining table. They smiled brightly and each brought food to fill the table. I thought the banquet on Lake Island was quite grand, but compared to the current banquet, it was a bit premature. Hundreds of foods smelled delicious. The feast was so grand that the vast space was filled with the smell of food.

Naturally, thunder rumbled on Hoenn’s ship. Hae Joo-ju kindly took Ho-yeon and me and seated us next to the head of the table. Music and dancing were not missing from the feast. The monsters drank alcohol and food, danced and sang. The most exciting thing was the people called ‘kkaebi’. They were red and blue-skinned giants with large lumps on their chins, and they sang excitedly, calling the lumps their singing sacs. The other youkai didn’t mind their singing skills, but I found it so difficult to listen to that it completely lost my appetite.

I watched the monsters in Bansa-dong, hoping that the singing of the Tungtungs would end quickly.

“I know how to tell the difference.”

Only the guy who modified me knows why I have this feature, but-

I knew for sure after seeing so many monsters in person.

I was able to distinguish between good and evil monsters.

The giant centipede and the flower snake monster were evil. The fish head leader was indescribably terrible. However, even though the moth people and they looked scary and scary, they were not wary at all. no malice So, they are good monsters.

“it is delicious! “Hurry up and eat!”

Hoyeon’s stomach was so full that it felt like her jacket was about to burst.

I wiped the seasoning off the corner of his mouth.

In Bansa-dong, you can always eat as full as you do now.

The first goal is to take Hoyeon to her godmother.

I didn’t think about it after that.

Now it’s time to choose again.

[Thanks to Haejuju, we were able to hold a feast, so let’s offer an offering!]

[Long live the boss!]

[Please accept the cloak woven from my thread!]

[The beak of a three-legged eagle. I came and picked it up.]

It was a time when I was organizing my many thoughts.

The drunken monsters suddenly flocked to Hae Joo-ju.

Now I see that welcoming us was just an excuse.

The monsters were not interested in us. He gave all sorts of things just for Hae Joo Joo.

Starting with silk, a cloak made of spider web, and a huge bird’s beak. It was all a gift for Haeju Joo, his boss. The monsters in Bansa-dong each had different appearances, but their respect and loyalty to Hae Joo-ju were the same. Hae Joo, who was seated at the head table, sat leisurely and accepted the offerings from the monsters. It looked very natural. Just as it is natural for a king to receive tribute.

The leader of Bansa-dong had dignity and dignity.

Haeju Ju is the leader of the force that ‘bisects’ Myogoong Mountain.

Myogoong Mountain is wide, but considering the size of the demon world, it is not a big deal. And even that wasn’t all taken up. That’s how Jo Joo Joo receives treatment. It was by no means ignoring Hae Joo-ju. But what if he is the leader of a force greater than the leader of Bansadong? The leader of a force wider than Myogoongsan. Beyond him, he is the greatest leader of this demon world… In other words, if he becomes the ‘King of the Demon World’, how on earth will he be treated?

If we divide evil and good based on greed.

Humans will definitely belong to the very evil side.

And I… … .

It was ‘human’.

“My mouth is watering.”

“Eat as much as you want! “I’m full, haha!”

Hoyeon, who misunderstood what I said, responded by patting his bulging stomach.

* * *

It was that night.

After Hoyeon fell asleep, I woke up alone and watched turquoise smoke enter the room. The smoke drifted around the room and stopped at my feet. The smoke, which stayed for a moment, left the room again. I followed the smoke. The smoke passed through the cavity where the feast was held and headed toward the deep crevices of the semi-dense cave. Recognizing that it was Hae Joo-ju’s call, I walked to the deepest and widest gap in Bansa-dong. The cobweb-covered cave was his bedroom. The spider monster that was hanging in a cradle of thick spider webs slowly came down and stood in front of me. Hae Joo Joo’s atmosphere was different during the day. It was as cool as cold metal. He made me feel nervous. He was far from hostile. This was the same kind of wariness I have toward youkai. It is the fear of the unknown. Hae Joo looked at me with six eyes. He had deep eyes that seemed to read your mind. But he was the one who looked first, not me.

Haeju Joo said.

[What do you think of that child?]

I answered honestly. In fact, it had to be that way.

Even if I tried to hide it, there was nothing to hide.

“I think of him like a younger brother.”

My relationship with Hoyeon was secret and a bit messy. This kind of relationship does not form just because I saved Hoyeon. He followed me, and I treated him with respect. It was a ridiculous thing that could only be explained by fate, so if Joo Joo-ju asked more about it, I couldn’t answer.

[Why did you protect that child?]

“just… “Because you want to protect it?”

[She is special. Did you know?]

“I heard about this tragic special thing from him.”

[…] I see.]

Hae Joo paused for a moment and then spoke.

[After all, I don’t know about you. I have lived a considerable amount of time, but I have never seen an indescribable being like you.]

I responded by tapping my head with my index finger.

“are you okay. “I don’t know either.”

Hae Joo tilted her head. When the giant spider expressed his doubts with all his might, I shrugged my shoulders and explained my condition honestly. When Hae Joo said that she had lost her memory, she expressed even stronger curiosity. As if he didn’t understand, he shook his head and even scratched his head with his long legs. It was only after a while that Haeju Joo struggled to get his words out.

[I can’t understand at all. To youkai, memory is the soul. Losing one’s memory is the same as the disappearance of one’s soul. The demon world does not allow this, so the curse of oblivion is equivalent to death. However, since you, who have lost your memory, maintain your existence in this demon world rather than ‘somewhere else’, you may be a more noble being than any other being I can think of.]

Hae Joo expressed regret that she could not say more about me, saying that it was far beyond her knowledge. Then he told me more about Hoenn until morning came.

Yokai are divided into two categories.

There are monsters who, like Hae Joo-ju, want to become transcendent beings by accumulating merit and giving out virtues and making a fortune, and there are monsters who want to become ghosts by accumulating vices by absorbing and ingesting the spiritual energy of others. It was said that the confrontation between Bansa-dong and the new monster was like that, and furthermore, the fight between the ‘Demon King’ and the ‘Yoseon’ was like that.

In this fundamental conflict, there was the most special being: Hoyeon.

To be exact, it is Hoenn’s bloodline. Hoyeon was ‘Gumi’. Among youkai, there were very few who shed their karma and reached heaven, and one of them was Hoenn’s ancestor.

Gumi’s ancestor was a unique monster.

You can either meditate and become a transcendent being, or you can eat and accumulate vices and become a devil.

From a choice where there were only two.

It is said that Gumi was a one-of-a-kind being who ate spirit energy and became a demon king, but then washed away his sins and became a immortal by earning money. In this way, Gumi became a symbol of chaos. It is a being that can be reformed, and a being that can become corrupted. So, if you catch and eat it – even an evil person will definitely be converted and become rich.

That’s why many monsters are targeting Hoenn. To eat it and become a transcendent being. To put it simply, there is no easy way. You don’t have to struggle to meditate or commit evil deeds; just eat and eat to achieve what you want.

[It is well known, but the truth is more enormous.]

Hae Joo, a friend of Ho Yeon’s biological mother, heard the truth from her.

[The ancestors of Gumi did not become immortals or ghosts.]

Yin and yang.

A chaotic fox with two qualities becomes eligible once it has nine tails.

You are qualified to explore the sky of truth.

The right to spy on the secrets of the universe.

This is said to be greater than becoming the king of the demon world, a hermit, or a ghost.

[Even though her mother was eaten by the Six Tails, I still haven’t given up hope. If that child, who was just an inadequate and weak being, had nine tails and became a seeker of truth, wouldn’t the birth of a myth be so bright that it would be funny? I miss you. Beyond power or wisdom, the true king of monsters who shines bright light as the only truth in the universe.]

“Umm, Hae Joo-ju.”

I asked while the king was being talked about.

“What must I do to become king?”

At that moment, the calm atmosphere suddenly turned violent.

Haeju Joo glared at me and said.

[Do you also want to be king?]

“Yeah, well… “For various reasons.”

[If a non-youkai becomes the king of the demon world, we don’t know what kind of chaos it will cause.]

“Let’s think about it then.”

[If you dream of becoming a king, why don’t you eat Hoenn?]

“Don’t say horrible things. Why do I prey on Hoenn? Anyway, isn’t there an easy way to become king?”

It was clearly a spider’s face, but I could tell that he was very confused.

After being silent for a moment, he went up to the spider web cradle and spoke.

[You will find out when you climb to the highest peak of the highest mountain.]

A giant spider sleeping with its legs curled.

It seemed like he didn’t want to talk anymore.

I returned to the room scratching my head.

What kind of Captain Um Hong-gil are you? Why do you keep climbing the mountain?
