Episode 290
The 17th star of Orgal.
Originally, it was a place where a huge castle representing the archduke’s domain was located.
However, the castle that was supposed to display its majesty was now completely destroyed and occupied by the demons.
[Khaha… !!]
[kill… .]
[How dare the dream demons… .]
Remnants of the collapsed 17 castles.
From low-level monsters to high-ranking species.
The various demonic beasts groaned and poured out their speculations.
However, the tide was already tilted.
Due to the Archduke’s overwhelming force, the commanders of the 17 castles were unable to gain any time.
The demonic beasts were under mental control and could not escape properly.
What happened next was devastating.
Rosaria’s dream demons clung to the demon beasts that could not use their power properly and began to suck their mental power.
Aiming for growth by taking the magical power of stronger monsters.
Therefore, the more monsters survive in numerous battles, the stronger their power becomes and their power is maximized.
[Crackling.]
[I think I’ve become stronger~ Cry.]
[Caughter, me too~]
They are a group of demonic beasts who are considered stronger than themselves.
Stirring the minds of such entities and eating away their thoughts.
The succubi of the Dream Demon tribe were growing rapidly.
[Queen. The length of stay is getting longer.]
One Grand Succubus Knight, who was watching the scene, reported with a worried face.
It’s not just her.
There were dozens of SS to SS+ rank followers who followed Rosaria.
They were all worried about the current situation.
This is because the 20th, 19th, and 18th provinces that have been captured so far have not stayed this long.
At that time, Rosaria only advanced.
It’s as if they’re going to attack their true nature at any moment.
But for some reason.
The 17th castle was quickly captured and then released its troops to deal with the remnants, showing a relaxed attitude.
As if waiting for someone.
The thoughts of the family members were not wrong.
[The main woman will stop her advance here.]
[…] What if I come?]
One of the family members asked.
[As soon as the children dispose of the remnants, prepare to retreat to the main camp.]
Rosaria spoke calmly, as if stating an obvious fact.
[Queen, what is that… .]
It’s time for a subordinate who doesn’t understand to ask back.
[Rosaria!!!]
Far away.
A loud shout was heard from an unseen place.
[…] … !!]
[…] … !!]
[…] … !!]
The enormous magic power contained in the voice.
The bodies of the members who realized the magnitude of the magical power stiffened.
Demon Beast King Archduke Orgal.
He recognized at once that it was the voice of a being that was supposed to be in his nature.
[How so quickly… .]
Orgal’s true nature is far removed from this place.
The current speed was unexpected.
However, Rosaria looked relaxed, as if she had been expecting it.
[He is like a beast. One voice is still loud.]
slam. slam. slam.
After laughing out loud, Rosaria’s tentacle hit the ground.
Every time, a crack appeared in the ground.
She is also a being of a different class from the general top species.
[Queen, how… .]
[If this continues, an all-out war with Orgal… .]
The household members checked Rosaria’s mood and waited for an answer.
Orgal arrived earlier than expected.
It was in the hope that the plan might change.
[It was earlier than expected, but it was expected. Bite the children right now.]
[If not… .]

[The main woman buys time. In the meantime, you guys retreat to your hometown.]
[…] … !!]
The stern command left the subordinates speechless for a moment.
Are you running away from your master?
This is nonsense.
Soon they came to their senses and raised their voices.
[It’s not possible!!]
[We will be together!!]
[We will buy time!! To the queen… .]
Rosaria clicked her tongue despite the loyalty that would normally have satisfied her.
[Tsk tsk. It’s hard for you to handle those vicious guys.]
It might be something like Erebos of the giants.
The power of the dream demon tribe is too small to buy time against those demon beast tribes.
Only Rosaria and some of the highest class who have transcended the limitations of the species will be able to deal with that great army and the great duke.
They knew this from the beginning and only brought in ordinary people, not the highest-ranking people.
Rosaria has finished everything.
The experience of subjugating the demonic beasts made the succubi grand.
Grand Succubus as a higher species.
This is because we will accelerate the growth of high-ranking species into top-ranking species.
[Don’t worry. She may be a bit overworked, but her real wife is not without her thoughts.]
[…] … .]
[Queen… .]
[Master… .]
Rosaria turned her head, paying no heed to the expressions on her subordinates’ faces.
In that moment, Orgal’s vicious spirit became even closer.
[Take the children and return to the castle safely. The main woman will soon follow, and this is her order.]
As Rosaria said that, her body shook without realizing it.
Anyone can see this as crazy.
But why?
A heart that had not been beating for a long time after reaching the rank of archduke.
The magic stone was pulsating.
Just like when we fought a turf war with the king in the past.
What’s different is that Taehyeon, his representative, is fighting the turf war together.
What remains the same is that the situation is not as good as it was then.
[Contractor guy. If she returns empty-handed, the woman will not let her go.]
slam. slam. slam.
Some of the tentacles that had been hidden all along appeared behind his back.
Feeling the presence of Orgal rapidly approaching.
Rosaria, who had unleashed her magic, burst into laughter.
* * *
The deepest part of the Abyss.
A place surrounded by the devil’s sea and where ordinary monsters cannot approach.
The center of the Horse Sea.
Jormungand was living in a huge towering castle.
Jormungand, polymorphed into a humanoid, smiled at the scene unfolding beyond the gate.
There was not just one gate spread around.
At least ten.
And the gate was shining here and there in the Abyss as if it were a mirror.
[Things are going interestingly.]
At the first gate, I saw a smiling Rosaria and a group of dream demons preparing to retreat.
At the second gate, Orgal and his powerful army could be seen.
Rosaria and Orgal would soon be seen together at the third gate.
[I never thought Rosaria would make the first move.]
Jormungand burst out laughing at the unexpected situation.
A gate planted in the territory of other princes.
There was no significant movement there.
Igmun and Beelzebub are probably recovering from the aftereffects of the battle.
Lucifer and Hazzard seemed to be taking a wait-and-see approach as they had up until now.
and.
Another monster was seen at the gate in the corner.
[Asmodeus.]
He possesses the power of the highest species, and it would not be strange for him to one day attain the rank of Archduke.
I also know that he caused quite a stir at the castle in Rosaria not long ago.
The fact that he went into hiding due to the aftereffects and is currently recovering.
[He’s usually a thorough guy.]
He didn’t know that he was being watched and his every move was being watched.
If the other great dukes knew Asmodeus’ location, they would send their highest ranking officials to capture him right away.
But Jormungand did not do that.
Because I know.
That Asmodeus will be the trigger for the upheaval that will occur in the future.
Even if he connects with other archdukes.
That we should not be captured by other great dukes and ruin the great world.
[If I had entrusted myself to you, I would have helped you. You are suffering for no reason.]
Jormungand flashed Odd Eye as he looked at Asmodeus, who was quietly recovering.
Contrary to what he says, I know very well that he won’t do that.
This guy was chosen by the King of Sanggye.
Kim Tae-hyun, whom I met a while ago.
Just as King Hagye, who was a human in the past, chose Kim Tae-hyun, a human, as the key.
It was a fact known only to him and a few other grand dukes that the King of Sanggye, who was the grand duke in the past, chose the monster Asmodeus as the key.
[Key.]
A king of human origin who conquered the underworld.
A king who was born as a monster and conquered the upper world.
A clash between the two kings was not far off.
Even at this moment, the two kings will be working hard behind the scenes to fight the next war.
The key was a kind of proxy for kings who could not appear.
And the key to growth is.
[It will be a trigger for the king to take advantage of the war.]
Naturally, key collisions will be unavoidable.
Jormungand recalled Taehyun’s power that he had competed with on Earth.
The power it still has is weak.
Although it is at a level that can take on some of the highest species, it is a long way from reaching the level of an arch-duke.
Is that all?
The doppelganger I saw in the world of imagination.
To handle that guy, it would have been difficult for him to be at the level of the highest level.
Asmodeus, who inherited the power of the King of Upper World, would not be much different.
Jormungand was genuinely curious and seemed to be going crazy.
King Ha-gye and King Sang-gye.
What kind of monster will the choices of the two kings create?
What impact will that monster have on the race war?
[I’m looking forward to it.]
When I thought about what kind of waves the impact would bring to the Horse Sea, my body began to tremble.
Odd Eye of Jormungand headed to the third gate.
Just.
The magic powers of Orgal and Rosaria were colliding.
* * *
Taehyun was truly impressed.
Gort and Bert.
This is because, unlike before, the connection between the two highest-ranking monsters has become fierce enough to be considered threatening.
A weapon that was no longer embarrassing to be called a blunt weapon struck Taehyun’s body at every moment.
Regardless of what it was made of, the weapon made from the ‘Apostle of Darkness’ could not withstand the two hits and was prone to breaking.
Even ancient martial arts did not work properly on the bodies of those clad in the power of strengthening.
It’s not strange to be frustrated.
Taehyun was not being taken lightly either.
Tiring,
[Skill Blood Rush (SS) has been strengthened. Magic power consumption accelerates.]
[Skill Demonization (SS) has been strengthened. Magic power consumption accelerates.]
[Skill Dragon’s Rage (SS) has been activated. Specify the target. Magic power consumption accelerates.]
[Skill Devil’s Saliva (SS) has been strengthened. Magic power consumption accelerates.]
[Skill Ataraxia (SS) has been strengthened. Specify the target. Magic power consumption accelerates.]
The skills created through the magic power of the great dukes put pressure on the two top species at every moment.
Is that all?
Tiring.
[Unique skill Predation (SS) has been activated. Specifies the target.]
Ugh.
Ugh.
The maw of predation bared its teeth.
Once the Grand Duke’s magic power was penetrated, Taehyun was always protected by the magic power of predators.
[bloke!!]
[Kaaah!!]
Gort and Bert screamed once again.
I hate to admit it, but
The human in front of them is dealing with them, but is also plotting a plan against Typhon.
If time was wasted like this, they would be at a disadvantage.
At that time, dozens of high-ranking monsters that followed the two top-ranking species arrived at the cavity.
Gort and Bert’s red eyes flashed.
[Destroy that magic stone!!]
[right now!!]
The two highest species gave up their pride and gave orders to the monsters.
It meant destroying Typhon’s heart, which was being artificially created by Taehyeon.
However.
“I’m really grateful.”
High-ranking monsters that hastily climbed into Typhon’s body.
Taehyun, who was watching this, raised the corners of his mouth.
Tiring.
[Skill Energy Drain (SS) has been strengthened. Magic power consumption accelerates.]
[Skill Binding Chain (SS) has been strengthened. Magic power consumption accelerates.]
[The heart (SS) of the higher-ranking skill has been strengthened. Fatigue accelerates.]
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Pupupupupup.
Tsuzuzuzu that is.
Tentacles and chains wrapped around the body of a higher-species monster.
I glanced at the status of the quest.
[Progress rate – 2.5%]
It wasn’t a bad number.
Taehyun smiled wryly and raised his magical power even more.
“All of you. “It will be good nutrition.”
All kinds of archduke’s magical power scattered together.
