Episode 472:
The princes have moved.
Now the turf war is coming to an end.
The weight of those words was never light.
Demon King. Vampire Lord. Succubus Queen. Demon King. Fairy King. Dragon Lord. Giant King. King of Demon Sea.
This is because it means that all the great dukes who have risen to the top of the species are targeting Lucifer.
Even if you look at the long, long history of the summer world so far.
There has never been a time when archdukes colluded to antagonize one archduke.
The resentment intertwined with the high self-esteem of the archduke.
This is because they make alliances of three or more difficult.
But it was humans who achieved what seemed impossible.
The Underworld King’s Key.
Just like the Underworld King did.
He made the princes obey one by one and eventually succeeded in holding the handle of the sword.
The difference is that the tip of the sword was not pointed straight toward the upper world.
[King of the Underworld. That guy also tried to start a conversation.]
There was no trace of tension on Lucifer’s face.
Rather, he smiled lowly and was intrigued by Taehyun’s behavior.
[Reziel. Continue reporting.]
Lucifer is one of his highest-ranking subordinates.
He called out the name of the man who was once a brilliant absolute ruler of the first heavenly world, but was downgraded and became a top-class monster.
Regiel bowed his head and reported the situation outside.
The demonic sea surged, and the vampires and demonic beasts took over the land.
It is said that the dragons and demons have taken control of the sky.
It is said that the giants and the dream demons are using illusion barriers mixed with all kinds of elements.
The species that dominate the lower world have completely surrounded the Heavenly Castle.
Lucifer burst out laughing at the rather plausible strategy.
It occurred to me that there have been a lot of things to smile about lately.
If it had been before, I would have taken it quite seriously.
I wasn’t worried.
This is because his power of existence is restored and his family members also recover their past strength to some extent.
Lucifer’s descendants currently in the sky are all chosen angels from the first heaven.
Among them, all those who were called the highest class were absolute figures in the past.
[You are making an obvious move.]
[If you give the order, we will begin the subjugation.]
Likewise, Regiel, who had recovered some of his strength from the time when he was absolute, spoke confidently.
[no. There is nothing to attack first.]
[…?]
[Keep the standoff like this.]
[How…]
The difference in power is enough to be worth it now.
If we subjugate the princes and place them under our feet at this point, the next King of the Underworld will definitely be Lucifer.
I tried to roll those words out of my mouth, but I couldn’t get them out.
[Reziel. Do not overestimate your power when it is not complete.]
[…!!]
Lucifer said, pointing to the four absolute beings behind him.
Regiel hastily lowered his head at that pitiful appearance.
He also says that he is now the ‘grand duke’ of the underworld rather than the ‘master’ of the heavenly world.
Therefore, it implicitly emphasizes the meaning of not ignoring other archdukes.
[It’s not that hard. How could it be easy to detect since snake-like guys have set up a trap?] [
What are you talking about…]
[Has the location of the princes been determined?]
[There is still no clear response…]
[What about Kim Tae-hyun? Where is that guy?]
[Well…]
Before the family member could even answer.
[It was done.]
Lucifer cut him off, as if he had already figured out the general situation with that alone.
[Kim Tae-hyun. Considering his actions, he will not engage in a useless war of attrition.]
If he knew the will of the Underworld King, he would target him directly without damaging the Underworld’s power.
[Danger….]
It’s dangerous.
Regiel swallowed those words again this time.
Because I know.
How rude those words were to my master who commanded the heavens.
It must be this painful for someone who was absolute to be downgraded.
What can I say about the downfall in the heavenly world?
[I will… obey your orders.]

I just bowed my head.
He said he would pass it on to other top-ranking people as well.
Lucifer looked at that figure with pleasure.
[There’s no need to make that face.]
It’s a matter of breaking the relationship I had with the King of Hades.
Therefore, he said that it would be difficult not to give even this much of an advantage to Kim Tae-hyeon and the princes who followed him.
[Who is that guy?]
[I have finished controlling the power and am waiting. All the other toys have been sent to Earth.]
[Call him here. There may be a time to write it separately.]
[I will follow.]
With those words, Regiel’s new form disappeared.
[We will finally meet.]
Lucifer’s beloved sword that has cut down countless absolute beings.
I picked ‘Arrogance’.
Hwaaaah.
Quaaaaa.
Divine power and magical power gathered into the sword.
A sword that can handle both the magic power of the Archduke and the divine power of the Absolute.
I can assure you that weapons of this level will no longer exist in the underworld where dwarves have become extinct.
Lucifer swung his sword in the air.
That alone created a crack in the space.
It wasn’t just a crack.
It revived the connection with Shinsu that had already been established once.
Being connected to the Divine Beast also meant that the absolutes of the upper world could specify the coordinates of this Sky Castle.
Lucifer didn’t care.
Even if you know the coordinates, very few people have a way to get over it.
As far as I know, ‘Ra’ was the only one in the 10th heavenly realm, and ‘Odin’ and ‘Loki’ were the only ones in the 7th heavenly realm.
Now, there would be no need for other heavenly absolutes to take the risk of visiting this place.
so.
The current action was bait for only one target.
[Kim Tae-hyun. Welcome.]
The magic that Lucifer instills in Arrogance has further strengthened.
If he is receiving help from the Fairy King.
If he was chosen by the Divine Beast, this alone would be enough to determine the coordinates.
just as expected.
Kiiiiii-.
The rift caused by Lucifer began to expand.
A new gate to Sky Castle was opening, to which no one could access without his permission.
Not long.
Two figures appeared from a gate made of colorless magic.
You look younger than I remember.
The woman with branches wrapped around her body must be the Elven Fairy King.
The man with a similar physique to Cody Cruise was Taehyun Kim, whom he had been looking forward to meeting.
[Excellent.]
The enormous magical power they possessed within Lucifer’s enemies was so vivid that it was almost tangible.
[Welcome to Sky Castle.]
Lucifer opened his arms and welcomed the beings who had reached the pinnacle of the underworld.
[Flame.]
The Elven cursed and opened up his magic power.
“We’re finally meeting each other, Lucifer.”
Tiring.
[Skill Apocalypse (???) has been activated.]
Huaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
Taehyun’s magical power descended on Sky Castle.
* * *
This is definitely my first time encountering Lucifer.
Nevertheless.
‘It’s worth the name.’
Taehyun was not feeling the emotions that might have come to mind upon first meeting.
This is because it was not much different from what we encountered through ancient memories.
Elyos from the 1st Heaven Realm that I have not yet met.
I also didn’t know that they all had the appearance of angels.
What was surprising was that Lucifer did not seem particularly tired after dealing with multiple absolute beings.
‘but.’
If I had been in a situation where I needed to get my body together, I wouldn’t have invited myself through Shinsu like this.
That’s why Taehyun used Apocalypse right away.
“You shouldn’t treat him like you treat other archdukes.”
[It is great magic power. The power of mind control has been mixed up everywhere it touches.]
Lucifer immediately grasped Taehyun’s talent.
It was realized that Apocalypse itself was a personal space.
[contractor. It looks like the first move failed.]
The Elven who said that strengthened the power of anti-magic power.
She was currently maintaining a connection with Shinsu through the rift created by Lucifer.
This is because he knows that without Shinsoo’s help, he would not be of much help to what he is now.
“I didn’t think things would work out so easily.”
While saying that, he pulled out his dragon slayer sword.
Tiring.
[‘Great power’ – the will of the ‘Fairy King’ responds.]
Tolkien’s modified dragon slayer sword can draw on the power of nearby princes.
The power of the elven assimilated with the divine beast flowed into Taehyun through the dragon slayer sword.
[Hoo.]
Lucifer’s red eyes widened as he watched that scene.
Bordeaux, head of the Blue Clan, who was Hazard’s right-hand man.
A sword that appears to have been made by processing an elder-level keel bone, with the red eyes of that guy engraved in it.
This is because ‘an object of that magnitude’ exudes magical power comparable to that of ‘Arrogance’.
It is said that there was help from the Elven.
This meant that the durability of the weapon itself was considerable.
[It is truly a desirable sword.]
“That product is not that easy.”
These were not empty words.
‘Is it possible for a sword to have that level of magic power?’
It was vividly seen through the ‘eyes of the King of Dreams.’
Currently, the gray magic power rising from Lucifer’s body is 500,000.
However, the sword he was holding also showed magic power of up to 100,000.
It was much more powerful than the Dragon Slayer Sword, which had a magical power value of 30,000 thanks to Tolkien’s modifications.
‘I guess the ingredients are different.’
He obediently acknowledged the inferiority of the Dragon Slayer Sword.
In the first place, the battle with Lucifer is different from other archdukes.
The only grand duke who formed a cooperative relationship with the King of Hagye rather than a superior-subordinate relationship.
Thus, while the King of the Lower World was dealing with the King of the Upper World, the maximum power of the Lower World was selected as the right person to deal with many Heavenly Masters.
Even if all the archdukes rush in.
‘If they plan a strategy without acknowledging their inferiority, there is such a difference in power that even a fight will not be possible.’
This is the moment when Taehyun is thinking about this and getting ready for the next move.
In a sudden rush of life, I instinctively swung my sword.
Kyaang!!
With the sound of swords clashing with swords.
Ssssss.
The opponent who was out of hiding was revealed.
“Cody Cruz.”
Taehyun spoke the name of the person overflowing with gray magical power.
“I guess you didn’t like surprise attacks?”
“….”
No answer.
The gray magic that enveloped Cody Cruz’s body was strengthened.
Holy sword Balmung.
The unusual sword he was holding let out a roaring sound.
‘Have I crossed the wall?’
Tiring.
[Skill Demonic Speech (???) has been activated.]
[Skill Devil’s Saliva (???) has been activated.]
Quad deuk.
Chii Iik.
As Taehyeon’s arm strengthened, poisonous magical power flowed into the dragon slayer sword.
and.
From top to bottom.
With the holy sword Balmung aiming for Taehyeon’s head.
Tsk tsk.
Cody Cruz’s body was cut in half.
* * *
Flutter.
Cody Cruz’s body, cut in half, rolled on the floor.
Chi profit. Cheeik.
Fazizik. Pajik.
The poison and thunderbolt penetrated the cut surface, preventing ultra-fast regeneration.
Even an archduke would not be able to easily regenerate wounds from a blow of this magnitude.
Nevertheless.
[Puh-huh.]
Lucifer laughed as if he was watching an interesting spectacle.
Cody Cruz, engulfed in gray magic, returned to his original appearance in the blink of an eye.
This is because the power of ‘regeneration’ has been activated.
[It should be extinguished, not killed.]
“You stink.”
Taehyun stepped back without any additional attacks and stood in front of the Elven.
This is to implement the next plan instead of useless fighting.
[Are you trying to call the princes?]
Kagagagak!!
Gray magical power swirled around, tearing Apocalypse apart.
Tiring.
[The unique skill Predation (???) has been activated.]
Oh my.
Taehyun blocked the gray magic power aimed at the Elven.
During that brief battle, the Elven succeeded in summoning another Archduke.
