Episode 418 You too? Us too!
With the battle with Griga over, we were able to secure his forces smoothly.
It was natural that they had absorbed magic, and perhaps because they had something in common in that they had fought together, the group of bald men and the rainbow group were able to mix in without difficulty.
To begin with, the demons of the 7th Demon Realm are the type of people who, once they acknowledge someone, accept them without any resistance, even if they were enemies they had just fought.
It’s no different than three forces merging at once, and considering the position Griga held, it’s as good as becoming the largest force in the depths.
‘In other words, it means that they have become the group with the greatest possibility of swallowing up the purgatory realm.’
Just when I was satisfied with the better-than-expected result, a demon emerged from the bushes.
A guy who came halfway, with a serious injury.
“Help me, please.”
“What about that guy?”
As Griga, with his face hardened, nods, one of the demons brings him over.
His condition is not good. Judging from his wounds, he should have been dead, but thanks to the demon’s tenacious vitality and the healing artifact he possesses, he seems to have survived.
It’s clear that something went wrong.
Since I still had some potions left, I started treating him.
It has been proven effective against Griga. The wound on his abdomen heals and his breathing returns to normal.
“That guy was under Mephisto. I remember his face.”
“Is there a problem with the guy?”
“Surely not, he’s the guy who divides the Purgatory Realm. There’s no way that any other force can touch him besides me.”
That’s what Griga said, but I can’t agree.
If we look at the forces that appear on the surface, that may be true, but in reality, no one knows what it is like.
I shook the half-unconscious demon awake.
“What happened?”
“Lord Mephisto, has been hit.”
A guy who loses his mind after saying those words.
He barely managed to stay alive, but not to the point of maintaining his sanity.
Since it has come to this, I have no choice but to check it out myself.
“Only 20 people will follow, and the rest will guard the injured and wait.”
“Understood! On one side of the wounded person!”
“Move quickly!”
At my direction, the Rainbow Corps picks out the wounded. There are quite a few. That’s because our forces are on equal footing.
There are about fifteen demons who are injured to the point where they can’t fight. If you include those with minor injuries, the number easily exceeds thirty.
It would be best to take 20 people with you, as you will need to have enough personnel to guard them.
“Hide well nearby. You have a horn, right? You have to blow it when something happens.”
“Have a nice trip!”
“We will be on guard over this area!”

As the bald man gestures, the green demons salute and stand guard.
Because it hasn’t been that long since we merged, there’s a tendency for people who are familiar with each other to move around together.
I think we should give it a new name, at least for the sake of unity. I understand that it was absorbed by Griga, but it feels like the Rainbow Group and the Green Party are merging.
Well, it’s not urgent right now, so let’s do it later.
“Griga, please take care of these guys.”
“I’m sorry about this.”
Griga decided to stay. He was an important force, but he had used up too much stamina fighting us. It had only been a short while since he had healed his wounds.
If you push yourself too hard and a wound that has healed bursts, it will be even more difficult.
‘It’s better to have at least one person you can trust and rely on.’
Even if another force comes looking for the injured, we will be able to withstand it somehow.
No matter what anyone says, everyone gathered here is a strong person who has entered the deep realm.
Combat is routine, and sleeping out and regrouping is a familiar experience.
It was not long before a group of people gathered to follow me and the bald man around and set up a temporary shelter.
“Everyone, I’ll go and come back!”
“Focus on recovery. I’m not going to let you get away with it, so if something happens, you’ll be responsible for it and handle it.”
“Don’t worry. I’m going to send a few guys to bring in reinforcements.”
I left Griga behind, who shrugged his shoulders, and moved towards the bushes where Mephisto’s subordinate had come from.
* * *
The leader is me and the bald man. As the wound was big, there are bloodstains left along the path the guy moved.
If the enemy had wanted to follow us, they would have come a long time ago.
“Do you think you let me run away on purpose?”
“Sounds good. If you weren’t going to let me go, I would have died before I got here. That means I didn’t do a confirmation kill.”
It’s just like the bald man said.
Why?
It was none other than Mephisto’s subordinate who came. Mephisto was attacked, so he asked for help.
Why would those who attacked Mephisto and won take the risk of leaving survivors behind?
‘There are two main possibilities.’
First. If you take a hit while fighting Mephisto and quickly retreat.
That’s quite possible. They must have heard us fighting.
As soon as he caught Mephisto and became aware of us, he left the place.
Second. Trap.
We cannot rule out the possibility that they are sending some survivors to draw us in.

Because capturing Mephisto meant making enemies of the demons.
For example, the remnants of the Celestials.
It is impossible for a new group of demons unknown to us to have come in and run wild.

The area outside the deep zone is under the control of Vector, and Griga was defeated by us, and those who remained neutral went under the command of Talmalman.
“There are signs of a fight over there.”
I was lost in thought for a moment. I checked where the bald man was pointing.
There must have been quite a fierce battle. The whole area was shattered.
It seemed like they had cleaned up the scene in a hurry, but they couldn’t hide the blood rising to the surface of the soil…
“Evil Eye, are you thinking the same thing right now?”
“Oh. This is a magma fairy.”
“Magma Fairy?”
“I called you Eloise. My nickname is Magma Fairy.”
“Oh, it feels like someone’s something.”
A guy who keeps staring at me.
I tried to ignore it and checked the battle scene.
It wasn’t hard to figure out who was involved in this.
Black earth and hardened lava. Acrid smoke rising with the smell of coal.
It was definitely the magma fairy I met in the waiting room who did it.
Didn’t you see it on the waiting screen? A hero was born. I also saw him active in the Celestial Tribe camp. His skills were amazing.
There’s just one thing that bothers me.
“No matter how positively you think about it, it’s impossible.”
I didn’t think the magma fairy could defeat Mephisto.
Of course, I’ve never fought directly. I’ve never actually seen combat.
However, there is a reason why I think the Magma Fairy is one level below Mephisto.
‘When I looked at the information with authority, I saw the title and other information.’
That means at least he’s not stronger than me.
It’s not 100% certain. It depends on the power you have, and there’s no guarantee that someone will be weaker than you just because you see the information.
That’s what it means in general.
Haven’t I won against strong opponents whose information I couldn’t see many times?
“Talmoman, how does Mephisto compare to Griga?”
“Well, I don’t know for sure because I didn’t see it directly, but it felt similar.”
Of course. Otherwise, the master of Purgatory would have been chosen long ago.
Even if you level up the Magma Fairy, it’s unlikely she’d be able to defeat Mephisto on her own.
Although we didn’t use all our strength, it was only after much struggle that I and the bald man were able to catch Griga.
It wouldn’t be much different from Mephisto, who is considered to be on the same level as Griga.
Is that all?
“But why did he attack Mephisto? There are many things that don’t make sense if he was trying to ambush here.”
I agree with the bald man’s question.

Mephisto and Griga have formed a temporary alliance to catch me and Talmalman.
If the Magma Fairies were lying in wait to capture either of them, they should have known they were coming here in advance.
In other words, it means that if you hit one side, the other side nearby will probably rush in.
Even though the outcome was different because we fought, this was an exceptional situation and it was like that originally.
There is one thing we can learn from this.
“You were confident. You were confident that you could deal with Mephisto before the other demons got involved.”
I carefully dug up the dirt.
Mephisto’s face is visible among the buried demon corpses.
I remember the general characteristics and appearance because the Rainbow Group told me about them.
“That’s Mephisto.”
It is clear because the bald man also checked it.
There are no traps nearby. I checked for signs with my power and senses, but I didn’t feel any ambush.
I heard he left… … .
“Hurren.”
“Yes! I’ll check where it went right away!”
“Let’s also check out what happened to Mephisto.”
Fren Kiano, who followed me, used psychometry.
Since the battle has only just begun, we should be able to read more detailed information.
Instead of moving hastily, we decided to wait until we had solid information.
“What’s with the lava-pouring armored guy and the seraphs? It looks like the seraphs finished him off… Let’s see, man. Aren’t these guys really strong?”
“Lava armor?”
“Yes. That guy is like that too, but the level of angels is quite high. This one is almost like an archangel. Haha! Of course, I don’t know much because I’ve never been in a war!”
A head-scratching Fren Kiano explains in detail.
To summarize roughly:
‘The Magma Fairy caught Mephisto with 30 Celestials? Judging from the description, the Celestials have at least 700 divine power.’
Huren said that the curses and debuffs used by the demons were also bounced off.
That’s what it was like in Framberg. You need to have over 700 divine power to be highly resistant to diseases and curses.
If there are any remnants left in the depths, they must be strong, but are there dozens of angels of that level gathered together?
‘If it was to that extent, wouldn’t it have been possible to reduce the demons’ strength by doing guerrilla warfare or something rather than hiding?’
The more information I gather, the more questions I have.
The balding man, who had been rolling his head with his brows furrowed, opens his mouth.
“That doesn’t make sense. I’ve been in the neutral zone all along, but I’ve rarely encountered angels, right?”
“Usually, three or four people would move. There weren’t any strong enough to catch Mephisto.”
“The Celestials operate in swarms rather than groups. At least that’s how it’s been since I came here.”
Those who followed the bald man also gave their opinions.

They had been in the depths for much longer than we had. They also had some knowledge of the remnants of the Celestials.
Since it has come to this, there is only one way.
I guess I’ll have to contact the guys who know the situation there.
“You guys just wait here for a moment. We’ll go check the area and come back.”
“Huh? Okay.”
I nod to the bald man and he follows me.
When I had left the demons alone and had gained enough distance, I turned on the community.
“Let’s ask the kids. Where are they now? What’s going on with the Celestials?”
“Good. I’m already experiencing withdrawal symptoms from the community these days… Hehe. Woohoohoo!”
A guy who laughs and says it’s good to talk about community.
Since he’s someone who’s been a regular in the community, he must have wanted to do it for a while.
I went into the private room where the members were.
[Petit Gongdu]: Hey! Hey! Where is everyone? I am… … .
While I was chatting, I suddenly felt eyes on me and turned my head to see the balding man looking at me.
“… What. Why. What.”
“No, I’m always rooting for you.”
A compassionate gaze. Her moist eyes are full of sympathy. Then she nods slightly and slowly takes a step away.
What is it? Why do I feel bad?
Let’s ignore it. The bald man is always weird, so he’s still acting weird now. Well. That’s right.
[Nimary Baldness]: I joined Gongdu. I’ve already caught most of the demons.
[Petit Gongdu]: There is a SO-SO problem though.
[Licks the crown]: Oh, you guys? You guys are kind of quiet.
[Meow Punch]: You too? Us too! All the celestials in the depths, unite!
[Jeongsuri Lick]: I had a hard time finding the kids who were really scattered all over the place.
[Meow Punch]: The devil’s side is finished too, so now all that’s left to do is make room as planned, right?
“uh?”
“huh?”
The bald man and I looked at each other at the same time.
Absorbed the angels in the depths?
“Then what about those kids here?”
At that time, I was muttering without realizing it.
-Kugugugugugugugugugugu
A huge vibration resonated.
