Episode 286
The deepest part of the Abyss.
The king of the demonic beast tribe who owns twenty castles.
The castle where Archduke Orgal resides.
A lot of it was destroyed in Rosaria’s riots a while ago.
There were no more traces of battle in the quickly restored castle.
and.
Numerous monsters that were hostile to him.
Orgal was talking to someone in the huge room where their supplies were displayed.
Red and yellow Odd Eyes twinkled beyond the gate facing them.
[It’s been a while since you first contacted me.]
It was Jormungand, the owner of Odd Eye, who said that.
[Is there anything that won’t work?]
[No way. Isn’t this a gate set up so you can contact me at any time?]
At Jormungand’s words, Orgal’s muscular body shook.
[okay. You really have many talents.]
There was even a bit of sarcasm mixed into those words.
gate.
Unlike Orgal, who had trained his power of strengthening, Jormungand knew how to perform various tricks.
By deceiving the laws of the Abyss, it was possible to contact places as far away as now.
If one were to endure a little inconvenience, it was possible to escape the original territory of the Demon Sea and move to the deepest level.
Even if the location was in a dimension other than the Abyss, it was no different.
For example, the Earth where bugs live.
[Jormungand. King of the Demon Sea. Isn’t there something you’re hiding from me?]
At Orgal’s question, Jormungand’s Odd Eye was torn into thin pieces.
You know it.
What does Orgal want to ask?
[Orgal. That’s not your style of speaking. I do not like cumbersome conversations.]
Orgal’s body shook once again at Jormungand’s words.
[Hehe. It was like that. That’s probably why we haven’t created a contract until now.]
[…] … .]
[Why did you hide the key? I thought we were a pretty good alliance?]
In response to Orgal’s question, a giggling sound was heard from beyond the gate.
I burst out laughing at such an obvious question.
[That was rude. [It’s such a ridiculous question.]
[…] … .]
Orgal waited for Jormungandr’s next words.
[There is no need to report my actions to you in detail. Besides, I guess it wasn’t me who hid it first? Aside from Rosaria, you were probably the first to come into contact with the ‘key’. Was there an answer?]
[The tongue is still teasing.]
Orgal said, no longer hiding his discomfort.
[That’s too much to say.]
Coo coo coo coo.
Magical power transmitted from beyond the gate.
It seemed as if the castle was vibrating just from that.
Orgal, who had endured the force without any defense, burst into laughter.
[Phew. Are you taking out your anger on me after getting hit by the key guy?]
Orgal said sarcastically.
It is already known that Jormungand used his power to head to Earth and that he contacted Taehyun Kim.
Even though Min Ji-hong, the contractor, was not there, people who had inherited his power, even if only slightly, had reported it.
Other Grand Dukes say that Orgal only knows how strong he is.
In fact, among the grand dukes, it was Orgal who was more interested in the reign of those around him than anyone else.
Despite the risk, he gave considerable strength to contractor Min Ji-hong.
And this fact was shown by the fact that they took in the giants who could attack their heads at any moment.
[If this happens, the alliance will break down.]
[Be careful, Jormungand. After Rosaria and Igmun, they may target you.]
Orgal spoke with magic in his voice.
Despite the terrifying warning, Jormungand’s laughter passed through the gate.
[indeed. The confidence I felt when I defeated the Giant King is still there. However, you also have to be careful, right?]
[Phew. I’ll deal with you anytime. I’m already itching because I don’t have an opponent.]
Jormungand clicked his tongue at Orgal’s attitude.
[You’re stupid. I am not referring to this seat.]
[what are you talking about.]
Orgal’s momentum became sharper.
He instinctively realized that something he didn’t know about was happening.
[There is news that the giants have entered under Rosaria.]
[…] … .]
Orgal fell silent at the unexpected words.
Due to the nature of Jormungand’s power, he is excellent at understanding information about the deepest levels.

So, unless it was said with the intention of deliberately deceiving, it would have been true.
[It looks like it hasn’t reached you yet.]
Jormungand, seeing Orgal’s reaction, laughed heartily.
[I will give you advice from the perspective of an ally. Do not ignore the power of the key.]
* * *
The gate that had maintained its shape all along disappeared.
This meant that Jormungand would no longer maintain an alliance with Orgal.
[This is absurd.]
Orgal commented on the current situation.
The Demon Beasts are born with a body as strong as that of the Giants.
Among them, Orgal is the king of the Demonic Beasts who was born with the power of strengthening.
At first glance, it was natural for him to ignore the other archdukes.
[Damn King.]
Orgal growled.
A monster made up of numerous races.
Among the countless people who claim to be kings of each race, only a select few monsters reach the rank of archduke.
and.
The ruler of the underworld who puts even the Grand Duke at his feet.
King of the underworld.
It was difficult for Orgal to control the anger that boiled up every time he thought of that abominable being.
This is because he is the one who is restricting Orgal’s actions.
If it weren’t for the damn law the king made, he would have proven his strength by having a fight with the princes right away.
Orgal recalled the battle with Typhon that took place a long time ago.
[It’s been a while.]
It was a time when Orgal, who unified the demonic beast race, was showing off his power at the deepest levels as the highest-class monster.
Typhon, who ruled the area, was strong and unstoppable.
And he was arrogant.
Despite their small population, they were proud of their naturally strong body.
The war lasted a long time.
Is that all?
What if Jormungand, who wanted a new trend, had not supported Orgal?
It was so intense that it was thought that both the Demon Beasts and Giants would be annihilated.
[It was a strong, tough being.]
Orgal smiled with satisfaction as he recalled the fierce battle at that time.
According to the laws of the Abyss, the lives of the princes cannot be taken.
The king does not stop the ‘fight’, which is the essence of monsters, but he does not want the Underworld’s power to decline.
Before Orgal formed a force.
It is said that there has been a history of the extinction of several large supply monsters that had worked in defiance of the king’s laws.
It is impossible to completely kill someone who was once your nemesis.
That was a very burdensome task for Orgal.
Around that time, this thought occurred to me.
What if you could have the Archduke as your subordinate?
What if you could take that power completely?
What if you put all the princes under your feet like the king did?
Next, wouldn’t it be possible to take the throne of the King of the Underworld?
Rebellion.
Or revolution.
That was why Orgal sealed Typhon’s body, which was already dead.
The second nature that is closest to the true nature.
The body of the person from whom the magic stone was extracted was imprisoned in the basement.
And with his own magic, he slowly began the erosion process.
That wasn’t enough, so he accepted the remnants of the giants, dreaming of a great world that would come someday.
It was thought that it would be helpful if it was a direct lineage of giants who inherited the power, even if only slightly.
In particular, Erebos is a giant born with a power that even Orgal recognizes.
Even if it’s not Typhon, if it’s a guy.
For such a powerful giant, it would not be a problem to trample on the highest ranks of other princes.
I decided that that alone would be a good force.
But for a guy like that to go under Rosaria?
[gibberish.]
Not only Orgal but other archdukes would also think so.
Unless Rosaria steps forward, there is no one who can deal with a monster the size of Erebos.
Even Kim Tae-hyun, who is the key, will not be a match for Erebos.
At that time, one of the family members came.
[Is this news from Erebos?]
Orgal asked.
[no. This is news that the twentieth castle has fallen and an urgent request for assistance from the nineteenth castle.]
Twentyth castle.
It was the last castle in Orgal’s territory.
Naturally, the location was also the furthest from the main castle.
That place fell, and the Nineteenth Castle sent a request for assistance.
This is none other than the highest species that inherited his power.
[Who is the opponent?]
[This is Succubus Queen Rosaria.]
[That bitch moves herself. Are you sure?]
[It’s hard for me to believe it too, but… . It is said to be undoubtedly Rosaria.]
The servant bowed his head again and answered.
He knows it too.
It would be crazy for the Archduke to move just to capture the castle.
In particular, Rosaria is the weakest among the princes.
It’s at least to expand the territory.
If you move too hastily, your true nature can be attacked.
[Phew… . Are you finally crazy, Rosaria?]
Orgal, who was in a bad mood due to Jormungand’s warning, was shaken.
Rosaria.
Whatever this guy’s plan is.
[If the Archduke has moved, you should personally welcome him.]
[What if you come?]
[Prepare for departure.]
* * *
[Hmm~ It’s boring.]
Sigh.
Rosaria’s gesture as she said that tore the body of the highest species to pieces.
[Cawrrrr. Queen~ Do we have this castle too?]
[It’s too far from here.]
[I like it better here~ cackle.]
The dream demons following Rosaria were walking around laughing everywhere.
It was the 19th of the 20 castles owned by Orgal.
That meant that the twentieth castle had already been captured.
It would have been absolutely impossible with the usual power of the Dream Demon tribe.
As long as the Archduke participated in the war, his military power was incomparable.
[Rosaria. At the current rate, I think we will be able to capture up to 17 castles before Orgal arrives.]
One of her descendants.
The Grand Succubus Knight approached and reported.
[Yes, it looks like that.]
[Are you okay?]
The attendant asked, examining her mood.
There are five castles owned by the Hwangma tribe.
None of them are unimportant.
Of course, when I invaded Igmun’s territory the other day.
Recently, Rosaria has been active outside frequently, which is not befitting the status of a grand duke.
The same goes for Rosaria.
[I left the house empty, so how could it be okay?]
She thought of the giants she had placed in the main castle.
Erebos, a direct descendant of Typhon.
The remnants led by that guy would have been able to withstand quite a bit even if the other guys attacked with good timing.
[Even though Erebos now follows the queen’s orders… He was also the one who attacked the 5 stars. He must return to the castle quickly… .]
I guess I’m worried about leaving my house to someone else and being out here.
The family members did not tolerate advice.
[I agree. Like this, we will advance to Castle 17.]
[If you come here.]
[okay. I think the main lady will have to tie her orgall’s feet for a while.]
[…] All right. I will prepare to move right away.]
The retired subordinate shouted and began to herd the childish succubi.
Take a moment to watch it.
[contractor. Move quickly.]
Rosaria muttered quietly.
* * *
Org, the king of the orcs.
By human standards, it is an SSS grade.
By the standards of monsters, they are the highest species.
The second castle among the twenty castles of Orgal.
Among them, he was one of the highest ranking members in charge of managing the castle.
[Rosaria is running rampant… . He must be crazy.]
He muttered this after receiving his subordinate’s report.
The fact that the Grand Duke is moving around his hometown means that his territory is also prepared for invasion.
If it had been another archduke, I would have thought he would have prepared something great.
You may have wondered what was behind it.
However, if the target is Rosaria, it is a different story.
This is because there is no way such a thing exists among the dream demons.
Moreover, since Erebos was probably attacking the Fifth Star, it was not strange to take the current news as desperation.
[I wonder if the contractor instigated this time too.]
Taehyun Kim.
A human who survived the invasion of the Archduke’s castle.
[Either way, it’s crazy.]
at that time.
Something passed through Org’s eyes.
Blurry but clear.
[person… liver… ?]
Suddenly.
Before Org could even fully speak of the subject.
His throat was cut by something sharp.
at the same time.
Chi profit. Chii Iik.
The poisonous magic power interfered with high-speed regeneration.
It happened in an instant.
Ssssssut.
Taehyun was released from hiding and revealed himself.
“It’s not crazy.”
Taehyun canceled the huge scythe that decapitated Org.
‘Apostle of Darkness’ and ‘Devil’s Saliva’.
If you maximize the two skills by overlapping them, you can instantly subdue even SSS level monsters.
It was already confirmed in the previous battle with Erebos, and it was indeed a satisfactory power.
Tiring.
[Unique skill Predation (SS) has been activated. Specifies the target.]
Ugh.
Kwaduk!!
The maw of devouring devoured Org’s corpse.
In an instant, his existence was erased from the castle.
Watching that scene.
“It’s the perfect plan?”
Taehyun smiled wryly.
