Episode 396:
Rosaria’s true nature.
Taehyun was checking the status window in the spacious space allocated to him.
It is natural that rapid growth follows each battle.
Therefore, I was checking it often, but I couldn’t deny that the frequency of checking had increased more recently.
It also meant that battles were constantly being fought.
It was a battle of such scale that Taehyun had to risk his life to overcome the large supply.
“This is the only way there will be no people left.”
Taehyun muttered as he looked at the ‘Fairy King’s Magic Stone’ quest that had disappeared from the status window.
As usual, there was nothing special.
The progress of turf wars and race wars has increased, stats have risen, and new summoning skills have been registered.
Elven (SSS) – Summons the Fairy King Elven. Magical power: 10000
The only problem is that the magic power required for summoning is too high.
“So it’s not a complete contract yet?”
Either that or it could be that the Elven’s condition was not normal.
“You’ll find out when something happens.”
In addition to the Elven, the change in magic power for summoning several Archdukes was noticeable.
This was the case with Igmun, Orgal Beelzebub, and Typhon.
Igmun (SSS) – Summons Vampire Lord Igmun. Magic Power: 250
Orgal (SSS) – Summons the Demon King Orgal. Magic Power: 4800
Beelzebub (SSS) – Summons the demon king Beelzebub. Magic Power: 4000
Typhon (SSS) – Summons the giant king Typhon. Magic Power: 200
“Igmun guy. “It was destroyed.”
It is said that due to Typhon’s imperfect body, as Taehyun grew, his magic power rapidly decreased.
It wasn’t Igmun.
Even after signing the oath to summon him a while ago, he needed quite a bit of magical power, but now his magical magic power has changed to 250, the same as Rosaria.
‘I guess it’s not just because I’ve grown.’
That is because the fluctuations in magic power of Beelzebub and Orgal were not unusual.
Beelzebub’s magic power dropped from 7000 to 4000, and Orgal also dropped from 7800 to 4800.
The timing was too coincidental to say that the change was simply due to Taehyun growing up.
It could be said to be an aftereffect of separating the Beelzebubya Elven, but it was surprising that Orgal’s magical power changed.
This is because there is no change in the magic power of Hazard and Jormungand, which were not related to this battle.
‘Did something happen to the contractor?’
Kassim Jort and Jihong Min.
I couldn’t confirm the fate of the guys I dealt with with Cody Cruise the other day.
“I’m sure he’s not dead.”
These are the guys who have walked the path of the demons and reached the realm of the highest species based on the power of anti-aircraft contractors.
With its tough vitality, it will somehow survive unless it is completely devoured by predation.
‘Next time we meet, I’ll definitely eat it up.’
To do that, it was necessary to properly understand the available skills.
What caught the most attention in the changed status window was the new skill ‘Fairy’s Protection’.
Fairy’s Protection (SSS) – Replaces strength and speed stats with magic power. Horsepower: 300
Taehyun’s current physical abilities were 560 for strength, 567 for stamina, 528 for speed, and 725 for horsepower.
When using various buff skills, the magic power easily exceeds 800.
But here, strength and speed stats are replaced with magic stats?
“You mean to die.”
Sufficient hardware was essential to contain the enormous power.
The stamina stat of 567 is certainly impressive.
Even if ‘Demon Beast Fire’ was used, it was not enough to contain more than 1000 magical power.
If you use it excessively, you will end up destroying yourself.
Because the risk of the skill was so high, it seemed like it could only be used in an appropriate situation and after sufficient preparation.
Taehyun was looking at his stats one last time.
I thought I heard a pounding sound from far away.
Suddenly.
[Contractor!!]
Typhon, whose body has been reduced to about 2 meters in size, has arrived.
A look of nervousness was evident on his face.
“What happened again?”
Taehyun asked indifferently, as he was no longer surprised no matter what happened at any time.
‘Could it be that one of the archdukes attacked?’
That feeling of anxiety slowly began to bloom.
Fortunately, that wasn’t the reason.
[Elven has woken up!!]
“…?”
If the Elven had awakened, Typhon should have been the favorite, but her reaction was strange.
[Huh… You’ll find out when you get there.]
Typhon said that and stomped away again, heading towards where Rosaria was.
‘You’re done with being a fear, Typhon.’

Taehyun did not deny the feelings that arose and followed suit.
* * *
The place Typhon guided us to was a large hall located in the main castle, which was serving as a conference room as the number of people in the group increased.
An elf was held in the arms of Rosaria, who was sitting on the throne.
The skin like jade, pure white hair, and red eyes curved like a crescent moon are so lovely.
It was like seeing a mother and her young daughter on good terms.
[You have come.]
Rosaria glanced at Taehyun and said in a benevolent voice.
“What kind of scene is this?”
Taehyun asked, looking at the Elven in her arms and glancing at him.
[Why was there no shock when such power was used?]
“….”
Taehyun looked at Rosaria, Elven, and Typhon alternately.
“No way….”
[It must be that no way. It looks like there is a problem with the Fairy King’s memory.]
“….”
Taehyun stared at the Elven.
The innocent expression on his face was different from when he was dealing with Beelzebub or his doppelganger.
“Huh…”
They said there would be risks.
I never thought it would come out like this.
I had a suspicion that she was acting.
Tiring.
[Skill Watcher’s Eye (SSS) has been activated.]
Taehyun, who opened his red and blue eyes, stared at the Elven.
If she is telling a lie, I want to catch her without missing a thing.
[That won’t change anything. The main woman has already confirmed it.]
Despite Rosaria’s words, Taehyun did not stop looking at the Elven.
Rather, I strengthened my skills and improved my eyesight.
Perhaps out of fear of Taehyun’s Odd Eye, the Elven snuggled into Rosaria’s arms like a girl her own age.
[Stop loosening up. Isn’t the child surprised?]
“A child. “You sound scary.”
Taehyun asked if she had forgotten the power she possessed and the madness contained in those crescent-moon-like eyes.
[Even though she is the weakest of the archdukes. I’m not that stupid.]
Rosaria grumbled, asking if she had forgotten her power.
“….”
There was no need to hurt her feelings, so Taehyun canceled the skill.
It was as she said.
Even with the ‘eye of the beholder’, it was only confirmed that the magic power in the Elven’s body was unstable.
This is when Taehyun is looking at the Elven with eyes filled with distrust.
The Elven suddenly escaped from Rosaria’s embrace and headed towards Taehyun.
[…?]
“…?”
Rosaria and Taehyun briefly questioned the sudden situation.
The Elven stretched out two small hands and grabbed Taehyun’s hand.
Startle.
Because the memories of the battle were still vivid, my body trembled without realizing it.
She pursed her lips as if she didn’t care.
Still, no voice came out.
I could hear her voice vividly in my head.
[Dad.]
“…!!”
Taehyun was startled and put out his hand.
I looked at Rosaria.
She seemed to know what the Elven said.
[Contractor, why are you doing this? What did you say?]
Typhon suddenly interrupted and asked.
“I guess that means asking for a favor…?”
Taehyun said, avoiding his curious eyes.
[her. What nonsense are you talking about?]
Typhon grumbled, telling him to stop making silly jokes, but Taehyun never answered.
I didn’t want to cause any unnecessary misunderstanding.
* * *
It seemed clear that the Elven had lost her memory.
Rosaria and even Gilper, who arrived late, looked so confident.
[I never thought the Fairy King would become such a kid.]
Long ago.
Gilfer shook his head, remembering when she used her original power.
[What should I do with my original magic stone?]
Typhon said with a groaning sound.
As the battle continued, I realized how lacking my strength was.
I wouldn’t know if I didn’t have power from the beginning.
In the past, Typhon boasted as much power as any other prince, so I fully understood his feelings.
As the original plan was to revive the Elven and restore Typhon’s power, a meeting was held ahead of future plans.
Rosaria said that she would take care of her like a daughter and that she should wait until her memories returned.
Typhon said that he would be his father, but was hit by Rosaria’s tentacles.
Gilper said that the management of the divine beast that had settled in the hidden area could not be left unattended.
The seven elders just listened in silence with their eyes downcast.
How pitiful that sight is.
It looked as if it had 10,000 tails because it was worried that it would cause an unnecessary dispute.
Taehyun, who had been listening quietly, opened his mouth.
“I think Gilper is the only one who gave a normal opinion.”
Taehyun spoke, looking pitifully at Typhon, who was trying to touch the Elven, regardless of Rosaria’s checks.
“I don’t know how long it will take for the Elven to regain her memories. “Until then, I’ll have to protect my spirit.”
[I agree. Immediate access has been blocked by the power of Mastema. It won’t last long.]
Gilper said that all the ancient great devils were monsters and that they should deal with them as if they were dealing with the great dukes.
“It wouldn’t be a bad idea to use District 15 as a new base.”
Even though it is a hidden area, its location is geographically part of Beelzebub’s territory.
The group expressed their disapproval at the idea of setting up a base in such a place.
“I know of an ancient archdemon who knows the realm of Beelzebub better than anyone else and is targeting the next archduke.”
Taehyun’s gaze turned to Gilper.
[Vigilance will be tight.]
“Similarly, the condition of Beelzebub and Igmun will not be good either.”
[You still look down on the Demon King.]
He said that was not the answer he wanted.
Taehyun shook his head.
[Then what on earth are we going to do?]
“Gilper. “You should become the demon king.”
* * *
A star in the sky against a red sky.
A scream rang out from the place that symbolized Lucifer’s authority.
These were the screams uttered by Min Ji-hong and Lee Jeong-jae, who were tied up in chains.
Cody Cruz’s holy sword, engulfed in gray magic, tore through their bodies and inflicted pain to the point of death, before restoring their bodies with the power of regeneration.
Min Ji-hong, who went berserk amid the endless torture, rushed at Cody Cruz.
Suddenly.
Cody Cruz easily cut off his limbs and restored them repeatedly.
[You seem to have become accustomed to your powers now.]
Lucifer praised his contractor.
“….”
Let Lucifer’s indifferent gaze rest on Cody Cruz for a moment.
He looked at Lee Jeong-jae, who had succumbed to the torture.
[He’s a fun guy.]
Lucifer smiled happily and looked into Jeongjae Lee’s red eyes filled with fear.
To be precise, I was looking at another personality, Kassim Zort, residing in that body.
[Come out.] Lee Jeong
-jae’s body trembled for a moment at the command he couldn’t refuse.
[Brilliant Grand Duke Lucifer. I swear to obey you.]
Soon Kasim Zort, who had taken control of the body, struck his head on the floor and took a posture of submission.
The way he spoke the language of monsters seemed to be a member of the Archduke’s family, not a human being.
[I am a contractor from Beelzebub. Isn’t that still too early?]
Lucifer sneered, saying that even obeying someone requires his permission.
[Continue.]
Lucifer ordered.
Phew.
Cody Cruz repeated what he did.
Kassim Jort let out a scream that I couldn’t tell if it was a moan or a roar.
[The Grand Duke has information that may appeal to you!!]
Despite the cry.
Phew.
Cody Cruz put down his sword and played it again and again.
Kassim Zort also did not stop talking.
[Hidden area!! Beelzebub has something planned!!]
Phew.
[Stop.]
Cody Cruz took an immobile stance at Lucifer’s command.
[Sufficient compensation will be given depending on the answer. If you are not satisfied, you will never find the rest of death.]
[Is there any chance?]
Thump thump thump.
Kassim Zort hit his head on the floor.
This happened not long after the resurrected Fairy King lost his memory.
