Episode 204
The first feeling I had was bewilderment.
To fight four division commanders alone?
It doesn’t even make me laugh.
Even though he is a young demon, this is beyond the pale.
“What an insolent bastard…!”
Next came the anger.
How ridiculous the position of division commander must have been.
How ridiculous must one have looked to say such nonsense?
6th Division Commander Karoxiz.
He was the demon known to be the second strongest in the 3rd Army after Hemis.
He was confident that he could destroy Raidrun in less than five minutes in a one-on-one match.
“Just charge at once.”
The arrogant tone of voice and gaze are engraved in my mind.
Raidrun’s words kept playing in my head like a video playing over and over again.
At that moment, Caroxis thought.
Maybe I’ll kill this insolent demon today.
“Ugh, gasp…”
And now, some time has passed.
Caroxis realized.
Raidrun was not arrogant.
There were already three division commanders lying in front of him.
7th Division Commander Brogttodan.
9th Division Commander Grim Bogmon.
10th Division Commander Jules Jasoo.
Everyone is lying on the floor unconscious.
Only Caroxis had difficulty keeping his feet on the ground.
“Raidrun… what have you done…”
He said it as if he was chewing and spitting it out.
“I remember you from just two years ago. Back then, you were far below the level of a division commander, let alone a corps commander.”
That was the Raidrun that Caroxis remembered.
Talented, but not at the highest level.
If a few more decades pass, he may have risen to the rank of division commander, but that is the limit.
Raidrun is absolutely not the type of person to be a legion commander.
To become a commander, you must overcome a huge wall from another dimension.
A realm that only a select few can reach.
He had been blocked by that wall for decades, unable to move forward.
“But… you overcame that wall in just two years!? You, the old-fashioned guy who only knows how to swing your fists!? Don’t make me laugh!”
Caroxis shouted as if spitting blood.
“Hemis did something!? That can’t be otherwise!”
“…”
“Tell me! What kind of number did you use! Did you receive magic from Hemis!?”
Raidrun remained silent.
Caroxis shouted even louder.
“Speak! Is that Hemis’s magic!? Or did you receive the magical engineering treatment that Rotak was researching!?”
Raidrun didn’t answer.
Instead, I took one step at a time.
Chulbuk, chulbuk…
Every time I walk, I hear the sound of blood sloshing.
Raidrun was also not normal due to the fierce battle.
Red Nightmare Raidrun.
His skin is as red as blood, as his nickname suggests, and is dotted with dark red blood.
It was all blood that flowed from Raidrun himself.
On the surface, his condition was so bad that Raidran’s injuries seemed more serious than Caroxis’s.
“Answer me!!! Raidrun!!!”
Caroxis screamed.
Why did he have to lose to a young demon who was less talented than him?
He just couldn’t accept it.
“Caroxes.”
Then Raidrun opened his mouth.
“That’s why you didn’t become the best.”
“what…?”
Raidrun suddenly extended his fist.
“Cough!”
Caroxis was helplessly hit by the punch.
Even if I wanted to fight, my will was already broken.
He was unable to accept defeat, but at the same time, he was contradictorily acknowledging it.
That he lost to Raidrun.

“It takes two to become strong.”
Caroxiz’s face turned bright red as Raidrun grabbed his neck.
“One is to believe that you can become stronger.”
Raidrun slowly began to lift Caroxiz.
A giant Caroxiz that must have weighed hundreds of kilograms floated into the air.
“The other is to put that belief into practice.”
Raidrun slammed Caroxiz into the ground.
Kuung-!
The back of Caroxis’ head hits the ground, splitting it open and sending shockwaves.
Caroxiz fell down in a large position with his eyes rolled back.
I completely lost consciousness.
Looking at him, Raidran said.
“That’s all.”
With this, all the division commanders fell.
Raidrun turned around as if nothing had happened.
On one side of the parade ground, Motem, along with the division commander’s entourage, watched the fight.
Raidrun sighed as he approached Mortem.
“I’m a little tired.”
“Leave the rest to me.” “Please.”
With those words, Raidrun also collapsed as if he was falling apart.
Looking at him who had lost consciousness, Mortem shook his head.
“Have you crossed the line again?”
This battle.
In fact, it was a reckless thing.
No matter how strong Raidrun has become, the division commander is not an easy opponent.
Especially the 6th Division Commander Karoxiz, who remained until the end.
In terms of physical ability alone, he was on par with Raidran. No, he was slightly superior to Raidran.
It’s hard to guarantee a win even one-on-one against an enemy that you can’t even guarantee a win in a group fight…
“That’s truly demonic.”
Inside the helmet, a satisfied smile appeared on Motem’s lips.
***
The Demon King’s bedroom located in the center of the Demon King’s castle.
After Choi Hyun-seok and Park Hyun-ah left, only the corpse of the Demon King with his neck broken remained.
A space filled with cold silence.
The silence that seemed like it would last forever was broken unexpectedly quickly.
Someone came to see me.
Gugugugu…!
The door opens.
The one who entered was a young demon.
The young demon walked towards the demon king’s corpse and stared blankly.
“…”
Those eyes seemed to be thoughtless, yet at the same time seemed to embrace all the worries of the world.
The demon tribe looked at the demon king’s corpse for a long time.
Crunch- crunch-
It was then that the sound of heels echoed through the hall.
Another visitor has arrived.
The young demon who had arrived first did not look back.
I just keep looking at the Demon King.
The newly arrived visitor naturally stood next to the young demon.
“Huh~”
The new visitor, Hemis, snorted and chuckled.
“I didn’t know that the Demon King would have such a bold idea. You should have told me in advance~ Hohoho!”
Hemis laughed high-toned and turned to the side.
What you see is a pretty boy with a slender body.
Height: approximately 170cm.
The short hair with thin lines gave off a neutral feel.
Only then the young demon
He also turned his head and faced Hemis.
“…”
The two just stared at each other for a while, as if observing each other right in front of their noses.
Some time passes.
The first to speak was a young demon.
“Are you Hemis? I heard you died.”
Hemis took a step back and bowed gracefully.
“Former 3rd Corps Commander. I’m Hemis~ I’ve lived so shamelessly~ Ohohoho!” “Former? Does that mean not now?” “I have a really great subordinate succeeding me now.”
“I see.”
The young demon nodded and placed his hand on his chest.
“I am Sidriel.”
The smiling face of Hemis was captured in the strange eyes.
“He who succeeds the Demon King Tegrad.”
***
1st Corps Commander Dorritugs.
His expression was particularly bad today.
I heard that Raidrun became the commander of the 3rd Army Corps.
“This is an unexpected variable.”
Originally, the Third Army was supposed to be absorbed naturally after the Demon King’s death.
The 6th Division Commander Karoxiz has already pledged allegiance to Dorritugs.
If he, who is practically the strongest in the 3rd Army Corps, comes under Dorritugs, the other division commanders will naturally follow suit.
In this situation, a new legion commander suddenly appears.
Even that’s Raidrun, who just became a division commander.
Dorritugs shook his head.
“Ozges.”
He called Ozges, the commander of the 5th Army Corps.
“If it’s Raidran, then isn’t it your son?” “He’s my brother Ugsorol’s son.” “I see. Anyway, this is the first time I’ve heard of Raidran having such powers.”
Dorritugs knows Raidrun well.
To begin with, there was no one among the high-ranking executives who did not know Raidrun.
He could not have not known, as he was the only demon who supported Hemis.
However, Raidrun’s role ended there.
Hemis’s secretary.
A demon tribe that is not particularly notable unless you are a Hemis.
To be honest, I was skeptical when he became a division commander, but then he became a corps commander.
“According to the reports, the 6th, 7th, 9th, and 10th division commanders were all defeated at once.” “I don’t know exactly what happened.” “Anyway, we can’t let Raidrun lead the 3rd Corps like this. As you know, the original scenario was for the 3rd Corps to be absorbed naturally, starting with Caroxiz.”
Dorritugs approached Ozges one step at a time.
“Our tribe is in danger. Human attacks are stronger than ever, and at the same time, the Demon King is dying and a generational change is taking place. If our power is divided at this time, the tribe will be finished.”
Ozges closed his eyes.
“What should I do?” “Tell Raidrun.”
Dorritugs placed a hand on Ozges’ shoulder.
“I give you two choices. Either join the new trend or step down as commander.”
It meant that if you didn’t want to come under him, you should give up your position as commander and leave.
Ozges shook his head.
“He’s a strong-willed guy. He won’t accept this situation easily.” “Then there’s nothing we can do.”
Dorritugs slit his own throat with a blank expression.
“I have no choice but to take the position of legion commander even if it means killing him.”
“that…”
The moment Ozges’ expression distorted.
Crunch- crunch-
The sound of heels was heard in the hall.
At the same time, shock filled the eyes of Doritugs and Ozges.
It was because I knew whose footsteps these were.
“Hemis…”
“Mr. Hemis…!”
The two corps commanders looked at him with conflicting emotions.
Hemis grinned and waved.
“long time no see.”
“I thought you were dead… but you’re still alive.” “Of course~ It’s still a thousand years too early for you to die. Hohoho!”
Doritugs’ eyes lit up as he looked at Hemis, who was smiling high-toned.
‘It got weaker.’
Ozges didn’t notice, but Dorritugs could sense it.
Although he pretends to be calm, the magic inside Hemis has weakened.
‘Was the reason you hid until now to recover your strength?’
It seemed that it had lost its strength due to the human attack and was recovering.
Dorritugs was troubled.
Should I deal with Hemis here?
It seemed entirely possible, with Ozges’ help.
But will he help himself?
As his worries deepened, Hemis opened his mouth.
“By the way, you want to kill our cute Raidran? Isn’t that too much?” “It’s time for the Demon King’s army to gather its strength. If you fall in love, you have no choice but to kick him out.”
“Whoa~”
The smile on Hemis’ lips deepens.
“So we’ll gather our strength around you?” “The Demon King will die soon, so we need a new center of gravity.” “The Demon King is already dead.”
“I see.”
Dorritugs nodded.
He hadn’t heard the news yet, but Hemis wasn’t one to lie.
If she said she was dead, then she really was dead.
“Then we will need a new focal point even more.” “Is that the great First Corps Commander Doritugs?” “Yes. I intend to become the new Demon King and lead the Demon Tribe.”
“Doritugus said confidently.
“If I am acknowledged as the Demon King by all the demons, I will gain immense power. If it is bloodline, I am not inferior to the previous Demon Kings.”
“Huh~”
“How about it, Hemis? Let’s open a new era together.”
Dorritugs held out his hand.
Hemis did not take her hand.
Instead, he tilted his head and looked up at Dorritugs with a strange smile.
“But isn’t that it?”
“What are you talking about?”
Doritugs’ expression distorts at her attitude of asking back without holding his hand.
However, that anger disappeared without a trace with Hemis’s subsequent words.
“Our Demon King. You have a child?”
