Money-grubbing Necromancer (222)
Paimon had met Kim Min-woo. He was a very unique person. The most surprising thing about him was his mental strength.
Even in the midst of a mind-boggling symphony, the guy remained sane throughout.
A formidable human being.
Before even starting the battle, 100,000 troops were killed.
That’s why Paimon gave it his all from the start.
[Using the rhythmic form – Symphony of Destruction (EX)!]
A chilling sound of music spreads across Paimon’s violin-like strings. It is music that has been refined for hundreds of years, and it is a symphony that presents the most intense melodies.
A massive sound wave spread out in all directions. The horde of undead that had been rushing towards him were instantly summoned back.
As if the flesh of a fruit wrapped in a hard shell was being revealed, the figure of Kim Min-woo running from behind was revealed.
There was even a strange skeleton and an undead that looked like a banshee.
The aura of the two undeads was not ordinary. It was obvious at first glance that they were great summons.
But, it was meaningless to reveal it like this.
Paimon’s eyes were filled with joy.
Music dominates the space itself. No matter how strong your body is or how fast you are, you cannot escape it within its domain.
Hyun is shaking violently.
Just before pouring out the sound again.
Bam!
With a snapping sound, a fountain of blood spurted out over Paimon’s body. All of the violin’s strings had snapped.
[Symphony of Destruction (EX) is cancelled!]
‘what?’
Paimon was taken aback.
The musical style was his body.
The hardness of the string is incomparable to that of a diamond.
Even though he suffered internal injuries due to the earthquake, he couldn’t have been cut off so easily. If the strings were in danger from the beginning, he would have noticed the problem before he played the symphony!
Even an experienced and seasoned demon lord could not remain calm when faced with a phenomenon he had never experienced before.
An immense pain washed over his body, and for a brief moment his mind went blank.
Phew!
The skeleton and human who had come closer before I knew it, stuck my weapon into his body.
The bad news didn’t end there.
Kkwarung!
Hundreds of lightning bolts struck, and thick smoke began to rise above Paimon’s body.
* * *
‘huh?’
Kim Min-woo was also embarrassed.
Bam!
This was because, with the sound of something breaking, a fountain of blood spurted out over Paimon’s body.
As he hesitated for a moment at the sudden turn of events, a thought crossed his mind.
‘Is it a trap?’
But for a trap, the reaction was too real. The reaction of the eyes rolling back in extreme pain. If that was acting, it would be innocent even if you were fooled.
The two corps commanders and Kim Min-woo were not fools enough to miss such an opportunity. In such cases, the standard way to deal with it is to hit them first.
He attacked the bastard quite naturally and seriously injured him.
Shadow Spear and Dragon Strike.
Using two of Cedric’s exclusive skills increases the damage by 14 times. It was a strike mixed with Dragon’s Blood Slash.
Cedric’s spear was sharply stuck into Paimon’s upper left side, and at the same time, Kim Min-woo’s sword crossed near his right waist.
Zzzzz!
As if to aid the attack, hundreds of lightning bolts struck Paimon’s massive body. I thought it would smell like burnt wood since it was a violin, but instead, a delicious smell spread all around.
Paimon’s eyes rolled back as attacks came from three directions in the blink of an eye.
[The sound effect (EX) is released!]
The massive impact caused the main body of the entity to disintegrate. A spirit-like body was revealed, with dark clouds gathering around the camel’s head.
The bastard’s body was covered in wounds.
His left arm was half cut off, and his chest was split in half, revealing his beating heart.
Even that heart wasn’t in good shape.
Every time he jumps, black blood spurts out like a fountain.
-Kweak!
Black blood flowed from the corner of the bastard’s mouth. His body was already close to being covered in wounds.
-Hey, you… What the heck are you doing!
Paimon staggered back and shouted in frustration.
The attack, which came when he was momentarily defenseless, was close to fatal.
His insides were already twisted. His lungs were ruptured, and every breath was a jolt of pain.
Fear and confusion flashed through Paimon’s eyes. In the hundreds of years since he ascended the throne, he had never experienced such pain.
‘Oh my god, oh my god!’
A chill ran down Paimon’s spine.
All the instruments attached to his body were long broken. He couldn’t figure out what had happened.
That was when.
A single vision flashed through his mind: a sudden earthquake and the annihilation of an army of 100,000 men.
It was such a sudden occurrence.
That was the same case with the string being cut off.

‘Could it be… luck?’
Normally, I would never have thought of such nonsense.
But didn’t Kim Min-woo say that earlier?
He thinks he’s a lucky guy!
‘Is that really true?’
There was no earthquake or power outage, and Kim Min-woo had done nothing special. He hadn’t even played around with his summons. If he had, the monarchs couldn’t have missed it.
Paimon shuddered.
If it was really luck on your side, you shouldn’t have actively tried to deal with the guy.
How on earth do you beat a lucky guy?
And that too, alone.
‘First, you have to change your appearance.’
The current spirit form that mainly uses musical instruments has no particular meaning.
This was because the body was destroyed and the instruments were all broken.
It took time to recover.
The moment the thought is over.
Magic surged over Paimon’s body. His appearance began to change as if he had undergone a polymorph.
This time it didn’t have the horrifying appearance of a giant violin.
Paimon became a woman.
It was literal.
Two horns are visible.
Bright red lips and moist eyes, as if they had been painted with lotion. Her appearance was truly worthy of the phrase, “beautiful as a country.”
She was wearing a gothic dress similar to Merhen. It was torn in several places, revealing her flesh.
―It’s been a while since you transformed into a female body. How is it, human? Are you captivated by my beauty?
Paimon said seductively.
Every gesture was captivating.
Paimon’s appearance was so beautiful that he could seduce any living being, not just humans.
That was when.
Merhen reached out her hand forward.
Hurrah!
Paimon’s face burned.
Even as the acrid smoke rose up into his face, Paimon did not lose his smile.
―Haha! Are you jealous of my looks? Are you afraid that your master will be possessed?
―Huh! Where is that damn thing! Minwoo, wake up! You saw it earlier. That guy’s a monster!
“I know, Merchen. Don’t worry.”
Kim Min-woo’s internal energy wasn’t low enough to be swayed by such a trivial beauty trick. He had already seen Paimon’s true form. Wasn’t it a giant violin monster with a camel’s head?
―Still, don’t let your guard down. He’s cunning! He copied me. He knows what’s good… … .
Merhen said, glaring at her gothic dress.
-How about we talk for a moment?
“gibberish.”
―Don’t you want to get a treasure? A beautiful woman? What about immense power? Power is a beautiful art. I can give you everything. If you come into my arms.
With eyes shining like stars.
Paimon smiled and said, spreading his arms wide.
‘It’s killing time.’
At this moment, Paimon’s head was filled with only this thought. Her main weapon, her instrument, was broken. It was a bad idea to continue fighting.
Fortunately, the situation was favorable for the monarchs. Marbas was pushing the Balkans back, and Amon was slaughtering the Balrogs.
If you just take a little more time… … .
Her serpentine tongue flickered.
―You have a bright future ahead of you. You’re young and healthy. Why on earth would you side with Balrog… … .
“Kill him.”
There is no room for negotiation.
No, to be precise, there is no way to control a cunning demon lord. Especially not a monster like Paimon who changes his complexion and seduces people.
I ran towards the guy who was kneeling with his sword in his hand.
Paimon’s eyes became poisonous.
A normal person would have been shocked and their mouth would have dropped open.
‘f*ck!’
Paimon gritted his teeth.
The fact that there were people with particularly strong mental powers was a painful thing for her.
Her fingernails grew long.
This body is much stronger than the spirit body. In other words, it is strong in close combat.
Ten long claws, each more than three meters long, swung out. The claws, intricately intertwined like a net, cut through Merhen’s magic and blocked Cedric’s spear.
Kim Min-woo’s sword penetrated between his fingernails.
It was a track that had to be blocked.
That was when.
Two of Paimon’s claws suddenly fell off. The sword naturally entered through the gap and pierced Paimon’s heart.
-uh……?
Paimon, who had transformed into a female body, fell down with a thud.
-Uh, how… … .
The guy spoke, spitting out blood. His eyes were trembling as if he had encountered some unknown fear.
Kim Min-woo was also suspicious. Even if the string broke, what on earth did the fingernail fall off in the middle of the string?
It was as if the devil had scored his own goal.
‘what?’
This is definitely… … .
Doesn’t that seem like too much luck?
‘Surely… …isn’t the luck over yet?’
He wiped out a whopping 100,000 demons and even wounded the demon lords. It seemed like his luck wasn’t over yet. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain the situation.
‘This is crazy.’
but.
It was the same back then.
The biggest misfortune at Oak Gate is when you encounter the number 1.
Not only did the official witch and Bingryong come to visit, but even the Great Witch visited.
If there had not been some kind of relationship between Ananke and Merhen… … .
‘If we had fought, I would have died, probably.’
That was how strong Ananke was.
Fortunately, we knew each other so we were able to get over it smoothly.
The power of bad luck is also not insignificant, so how can double luck not occur when it comes to good luck?
Paimon was breathing heavily.
The body of the guy who was about to say something more with a stern face slowly stopped moving.
[Amazing achievement!]
[I hunted Paimon, one of the seven great monarchs!]
[Title, ‘Music Fanatic’ acquired… … .]
[Level increases by 10… … .]
[The Beginning of a Legend – New list added to the short story… … .]
An instrument resembling a violin rolled down next to the guy’s body.
That was when.
The two monarchs and the group of Balrogs who were fighting to the death stood still.
Everyone’s eyes were turned towards Paimon’s corpse.
The Balkans were shocked.
The Balrog horde gaped in amazement.
However, he was not as surprised as the other two monarchs.
‘Dead?’
‘Paimon?’
And that too so quickly?
That’s ridiculous.
Didn’t Paimon say it himself?
There’s no need to be so cautious.
But the result was the exact opposite.
Paimon was dead, and the humans were alive and well.
The bigger problem was that Paimon’s power was not that different from theirs.
In other words, isn’t this saying that they too could be affected by that human?
A moment of silence.
and…….
-Where!
-Get out of the way, you punk!
Balkan blocked Marbas’s path. A group of Balrogs clung to Amon’s body. The fight between the two lords trying to escape and the group of Balrogs blocking them became fierce.
Kim Min-woo was also quickly approaching them.
Of course, the violin was already in my inventory.
