Episode 666
Raon turned his gaze to the place where he felt the magic energy. I could see the central street where the most people and carriages came and went.
‘It’s gone.’
However, in that brief moment of moving the eyes, the magic disappeared as if it had never existed in the first place.
Toouk!
I gently pushed the pure white ground with my left foot. He moved to Jungang-daero, where the demonic energy was moving, and spread his energy.
‘Where is it?’
The feeling of energy riding the wind of the wild wind spread out to all fours, but no trace of demonic energy was felt anywhere. He completely disappeared.
I tried to look for the entity that had shed magical energy with my eyes, but no one was behaving suspiciously.
“W-what is it?”
“Who is that person?”
“Sieghart?”
“I was with the prince a little while ago… .”
Rather, people’s attention was focused on him appearing as if he was rising from the ground.
“Great, great lord. Is there a problem.”
Burren approached with a nervous expression and placed his hand on the sword.
“Has an enemy even appeared?”
“enemy? “Where is the enemy here?”
Marta frowned, saying it was nonsense.
“Not the enemy.”
Runaan shook his head calmly.
“Daeju wanted to eat ice cream quickly.”
She said she felt the same way and quenched her appetite.
“… “That’s not it.”
Raon shook his head and looked into the eyes of the three leaders. Everyone seemed to feel nothing.
‘then… .’
I looked at Rimmer just in case. But he was also blankly blinking his eyes as if wondering what he was doing right now.
‘Even the vice-lord didn’t notice.’
Due to the nature of the elf race, Rimmer has better senses than a warrior of the same level. Seeing as how he didn’t feel demon energy, I thought I was unusual.
No, after all this is a sacred kingdom. It was very strange that I was the only one who felt demonic energy in a place where there were so many priests and priests.
‘Of course the reason is… .’
It must be because of Lars.
Ras is the king of the demon world. Since he has been with such a guy for almost his whole life, he may have become sensitive to demonic energy.
‘Come to think of it… .’
I remembered Ras suddenly reacting strangely when I was looking at the Super Holy Kingdom from outside a little while ago.
It was clear that this cotton candy knew everything from the beginning.
‘You knew everything, right?’
-What do you mean?
Lars turned his head slightly, as if making a fool of himself.
‘There is someone with demonic energy in this kingdom.’
-The main king is a demon king who controls demonic energy, so you can’t know that.
The guy nodded, easily acknowledging it.
‘who is this.’
-Why do you think King Bon will tell you?
Lars shook his head with cold eyes.
‘what?’
-You seem to have forgotten, but this king is the king of the demon world and the lord of anger. Even if he is not a member of the main king’s family, he will not sell his fellow demons.
The guy twisted his mouth and told me not to think of him as a human being.
‘hmm… .’
Lars is right. It was different from the work of the Changyeom Demon Army. Ras is the king of the demon world. He thought it was funny that he was selling demons.
I thought about threatening him with ice cream beads, but I couldn’t bring myself to say it because I promised to eat whatever I wanted for a while.
Leaving everything behind and focusing on food was an act that made oneself feel very ugly.
‘Where is it?’
There are currently two organizations that can use Magi.
The first is the black tower that borders the demon world, and the second is the demon worship club that worships demons. I’m not sure which of the two it is.
However, the magic energy I felt a little while ago seemed to be a little higher in purity than that of the demons of the Black Tower.
-Hmm, let me tell you one thing though… .
Lars seemed to think that I was being too affectionate, so he kissed me again.
-As you saw when you entered, the walls of this kingdom are swirling with divine power. A weak demon might not be able to enter, and a strong one might be able to break through, but a war would have broken out.
‘What do you mean by that?’
-Your head is empty. The fact that there are no traces on that castle wall does not mean that the demons forcibly invaded… .
‘Did you hold someone’s hand?’
Raon recognized the meaning of Lars’ words and answered first.
-That’s right. It means that a contract was made between demons and humans by agreement.
Lars nodded as if he was right.
-Unless it is a monarch like King Bon, demons cannot force a contract. The consent of the parties involved must be obtained. In other words, the owner of the demonic energy you felt would have accepted the demonic energy himself.
The guy waved his finger, telling us not to ruin the contract between humans and demons for no reason.
‘The wall and the agreement… .’

As I reflected on Lars’ words, an answer, albeit a very small one, seemed to come to mind.
“La, Raon. Even if there is something uncomfortable… .”
As I was gathering my thoughts, Hoppen approached me. His fingertips trembled as if he was worried.
“I thought I saw someone I knew.”
Raon looked at Hoppen and smiled slightly.
“Then we release people… .”
“no. “I saw it wrong.”
He said it was someone else and waved his hand.
“Excuse me.”
Raon said he was sorry and slightly bowed his head.
“no. it’s okay!”
Hoppen waved his hand and began guiding the Holy Kingdom again.
‘Las.’
Raon followed Hoffen’s back up the main street and turned his eyes to Lars.
‘If, as you said, the contract with the demons is for personal prosperity, I have no intention of touching it.’
Since I myself had a contractual relationship with Ras, the demon lord, I could not impose double standards.
‘However, if other people are harmed because of his wish, I will stop it no matter what.’
I thought that was what I had to do as a human who breeds demon lords.
-Buy or breed? Are you using the word ‘breeding’ to this king? If you don’t take back what you said, I will never forgive you… .
“That’s the new bead ice cream store. “I think you can stop by after finishing the audience first.”
As Lars was about to explode with anger, Hoppen pointed to a two-story building on the right.
The sign was bright and colorful, the interior was clean, and the freezer where the ice cream was stored seemed to be three times larger than the store in Sieghardt.
-Kyahoo!
Lars let out a soft scream as if he had forgotten what he was saying.
-Can’t I go now instead of later? It is full of flavors that the King himself does not know!
‘… … .’
Raon shook his head as he looked at Lars, who was stuck to the window of the ice cream shop like a piece of gum.
‘I’m raising it, right…’ .’
A dark space where the sacred sunlight does not penetrate at all.
A man sat in front of an old, faded desk with his hands clasped and his eyes closed. His lips moved continuously in a neat manner, as if he were praying.
Wooooow.
When the man finished praying and put his hands together, a shadow like scum shot up from under the desk and took the shape of a human being. He was a young man with impressive black hair.
“I thought you told me not to show you during the day?”
After finishing his prayer, the man frowned slightly.
“sorry. Because it’s urgent… .”
The black-haired young man put his hands together in front of his chest. It was a greeting given by a priest.
“Urgent?”
“yes. “The 4th prince has returned, and he has brought his group with him.”
“It looks like that group is the problem.”
The man in front of the desk calmly nodded.
“Raon Sieghardt. “A monster with the nickname Dragon Slayer came with Gwangpungdae.”
The black-haired young man raised his gaze as he spoke Raon’s name.
“The reason is?”
The man sitting in front of the desk was unfazed even when he heard the name Raon. However, the darkness in his eyes fluctuated violently.
“I don’t know exactly, but it is said that he saved the lives of the four princes on Mount Divarn. “It seems that
the king of monsters who was born there was stronger than expected.”
The young man recited exactly what Hoppen had told the people.
“… is it.”
The man nodded indifferently even though he had heard that the 4th prince barely survived.
“In the Light Wind Team, there is not only Raon Sieghart, but also the lightsaber Rimmer. The leaders are also at the level of masters. There is less than a week left until the Great Retreat, and if the Gwangpungdae remains
until then, problems may arise.”
The black-haired young man frowned deeply as if he was worried.
“Raon Sieghart and Gwangpungdae… .”
The man tapped the desk with his blunt fingers. Gradually, an eerie sound began to sound from above the desk.
“It worked out better.”
He gathered his hands that had been tapping on the desk.
“I will sacrifice Raon Sieghart and even Gwangpungdae.”
“yes?”
The young man widened his eyes as if he was dumbfounded.
“B-but… .”
“They can’t use their power inside the barrier anyway.”
“That’s not the problem! “If news from the Gwangpungdae is cut off, they may move from Sieghart.”
“Okay.”
The man turned his back. He quenched his appetite as he watched the black flames burning on the dark wall.
“Because that won’t happen.”
Raon sat on the bed in the dormitory provided by Hoppen and smoothed out the calluses on his fingers.
‘As expected, the answer won’t come out unless you take the test.’
Thanks to Lars’ hints, I was able to figure things out, but I needed some clues to be sure.
-What does it mean to come up with an answer?
Ras shook his head and told him not to say anything that didn’t make sense.
-Stop talking nonsense, let’s go get some ice cream! You’re not saying you won’t buy it now, are you?
The guy licked his lips, his eyes shaking as if he was anxious.
‘I’m not that mean of a person.’
-Well, then right now… .
‘First of all, I have to say hello to the owner of this place.’
-Since King Bon has set foot on this land, King Bon is the owner of this land!
Lars lifted his finger, saying that all you had to do was say hello to him.
‘… … .’
Raon was too lazy to talk so he shook his head.
-This is so annoying to humans! Greet the king, greet the nobles. Is this a holy kingdom or something? Shouldn’t you visit the Pope too?
‘There’s no need for that.’
I shook my head thoughtfully.
‘Super is legal. The king is the minister.’
There is no Pope in the Kingdom of Super. I heard that the king also serves as a high priest and prays to God.
-Oh, that’s pretty cool.
Lars nodded, saying he knew it was convenient for human subjects.
smart.
While Raon was laughing, a knock was heard at the door.
“Please come in.”
The door was carefully opened, and Hoppen came inside and bowed his head.
“Permission for an audience has been granted. Let’s go.”
“All right.”
Raon put on his black dragon robe again and left the dorm. The Gwangpungdae was already outside and waiting.
“What kind of person is the king of the Holy Kingdom?”
Martha tasted it as if she was curious.
“I heard that he is a very kind person.”
Burren’s eyes lit up with anticipation, saying that the King’s name was known for his good deeds.
“that’s right. “Be kind.”
Runaan nodded.
“uh?”
“Do you know King Super?”
“you?”
Everyone in the Frenzy Band looked at Runaan and blinked.
“I don’t know.”
Runaan shook his head without the slightest hesitation.
“But why did you say he was benevolent?”
“Because the bead ice cream shop is big.”
She proudly raised her fierce eyes.
“Ugh… .”
“That’s right.”
Gwangpungdae sighed, saying he was surprised for no reason.
-That’s true! How dare those idiots mock our ice cream girl!
Ras waved his hand, saying he agreed with Runaan’s opinion.
“Stop saying unnecessary things.”
Raon stood in front of the windshield and furrowed his brows.
“Make sure to be polite when you meet His Highness.”
“don’t worry… yo. this.”
“Who are we?”
Marta and Crane raised their fists.
‘I’m most worried about you two.’
Raon sighed inwardly and looked at Hoppen.
“Let’s go.”
“All right.”
Hoppen smiled slightly and headed toward the royal castle.
Underneath the spire soaring into the sky, a huge temple in the shape of a diamond was seen.
The building that caught my eye from the outside was royal. The wall was light gray, making it look even more sacred.
Perhaps because the story had been told in advance, the main gate of the royal castle was open, and the paladins guarding the gate quietly bowed their heads.
Raon nodded to the Holy Knights and entered the castle.
Unlike the exterior, the interior was a warm white color and covered in gold leaf, giving it a luxurious feel.
“Prince!”
As he headed toward the throne room on the bright blue carpet, an old priest wearing a gold scarf approached Hoppen.
“I’m glad you came back safely.”
The old priest bowed his head, saying it was God’s grace.
“Ah, Hierophant!”
Hoppen smiled brightly and greeted the old priest.
“Thanks to these people, I was able to return safely.”
“These people… .”
“The person I met on this mission… .”
He briefly explained what had happened on the mountain, as if he was now familiar with it.
“her! “That’s what happened!”
The priest held the Gwangpungdae with both hands together.
“Thank you for saving the prince!”
“no. however… .”
Raon looked back at Hoppen and blinked.
“Being a prince… .”
“Oh, you didn’t tell me?”
Priest Pirn blinked at Hofen.
“This is the 4th prince of our Super Kingdom.”
“Four princes?”
Raon gaped at Hoppen.
“Ho, Hofen was a prince?”
“I had no idea… .”
“no. “What kind of prince is so simple!”
“I thought I was a self-made man!”
Gwangpungdae also had a conversation with Hofen, so it seemed as if he had not expected it at all.
“sorry. I didn’t mean to trick you. As I said before, status is not that important to us.”
Hoppen scratched the back of his head as if embarrassed.
“hmm… .”
Raon nodded, looking at Hofen.
‘It certainly was.’
Hofen was always the same whether we met in Varennes or in the mountains.
He lived only as a Holy Knight, without any of the words or actions of a prince. He kept his doctrine more faithfully than anyone else.
‘So, permission for an audience was obtained right away.’
I hadn’t told him in advance, but given that permission for an audience was granted right away, it seemed like it was thanks to Hoppen’s status.
“Ah, it looks like this old man held him back too long. Let’s go.”
Priest Pirn said he had also been invited to the throne room and went forward first.
Raon and Hofen nodded and followed Priest Pirn towards the throne room.
“Now that you know that I am a prince, I have something to tell you… .”
Hoppen looked at Raon and lowered his eyes slightly.
“Lord Byton, whom I met in Varennes, is my older brother.”
“ah… .”
Raon looked back at Hoppen and nodded. I had no idea that he was a prince, or that he was Hoffen and his brother. I also thought that I didn’t benefit from the prestige of my family, but this one was one step above.
‘It’s an interesting family.’
As I walked around in vain, I found myself standing in front of the throne room.
As the priest Firn bowed his head in front of the throne room, the holy men stepped aside. The white door opened silently with a warm light.
Gooooooo!
The classical images of gods carved in the windows pour down with sunlight pouring down. It was a sacred space where it would not be surprising if God descended right away.
High-ranking priests stood with their hands clasped in front of a pillar with not a speck of dust visible.
Strangely, about half of them were young men and women, and their temperaments were as different as their distinctive appearances.
However, each one was surrounded by enormous divine power. It felt like I was looking at the sea.
“I’ll go too.”
The priest turned around, bowed his head, stood in the innermost position, and put his hands together.
Opposite him stood an old knight wearing silver armor, and unlike them, he had the strong, yet noble scent of an Auror. He was a knight who rose to the rank of Grand Master.
Right next to him, a blond-haired young knight straightened his back, leaning against a pillar. He was a paladin with greater divine power than Hofen.
Raon last saw a man standing on a very low platform in the center.
He was a middle-aged man with light blue hair like Hoppen, and he had sad eyes that looked like they were about to shed tears at any moment.
The author seemed to be Baurn, King of the Holy Kingdom of Super.
Jeez.
Raon activated the ring of fire and stepped on the blue carpet in the throne room. The spirit soared, and the quiet steps carried a subversive dignity.
The moment the eyes of King Super, the knights of the royal guard, and the highest priest were all focused, their anger was unleashed. The Demon King’s emotions, which were different from those of the Demon King, distorted the throne room filled with sanctity.
Bullfight!
At that moment, a very subtle tremor arose within the throne room, as if reacting to anger. Although the location cannot be specified, it was an instinctive wave of a demon, different from demonic energy.
-What did you do… .
Lars widened his eyes as if asking what he was doing.
‘As expected.’
Raon curled his lips while standing in the center of the throne room.
‘The humans who made a contract with the demons are inside here.’
In this room filled with the king, high-ranking priests, knights of the royal guard, and the leader of the Holy Knights, a pervert who had made a contract with the demons was hiding.
