Chapter 535
When I opened my eyes, I saw the red sky symbolizing the underworld and the princes who were waiting for me.
Rumbling.
As Rosaria’s tentacles wrapped around her body, the consumed magic power quickly filled up.
[Did you say hello well?]
“You seemed quite welcoming?”
[A contractor who never loses a word.]
Rosaria’s tentacles stroked all over Taehyeon’s body as if pleased.
Typhon looked at him enviously and Igmun frowned.
Ddddddddd.
When the Elven completely closed the gate, Sesepuu’s body disappeared.
5 minutes.
Just by opening the gate for that short period of time, the body of the Absolute disappeared.
Igmun watched the scene while licking his lips.
[It really wasn’t easy.]
The Elven took a deep breath.
Taehyun’s presence has already far surpassed the supply.
Allowing such a being to travel between the upper world and the lower world is not an easy task, even for her who has assimilated with the divine beast.
I felt a sense of fatigue as if I were providing magical support to the other eight princes.
[The 10 heavenly realms are like this. If you’re going to go to the 9th Heaven, you’ll have to be prepared too.]
The tribal war that Taehyeon depicts doesn’t just mean defense in the lower world.
Her role would become even more important in the future.
“Don’t worry. I don’t plan on overdoing it yet.”
[Bonyo is not stupid enough to believe that literally.]
“….”
The Archduke is naturally suspicious of my contractor’s words.
Taehyun grunted slyly.
[Don’t be too sad. She was the one who waited more than anyone else during the period the contractor disappeared.]
Rosaria comforted the Elven and Taehyun by stroking them with her tentacles.
[joy. This is useless interference, Rosaria. Bonyo was just bored because he couldn’t bother the stupid dwarf.]
The elf grumbled, but no one paid any attention.
[You look brighter than I thought considering you went to the Upper World, brother.]
Gilper approached and used the power of ‘evolution’.
This power has matured incomparably compared to when he first awakened as the Demon King.
My exhausted mental strength quickly recovered.
“I had an income.”
I told her about the battle that took place in the Upper World.
[After fighting Osiris, the only wounds were this much… Interesting.]
It was Hazard who said that.
[indeed. If I can’t do that, the title of King of the Underworld wouldn’t be a waste.]
Lucifer also let out a satisfied laugh.
Other archdukes also had similar reactions.
In a place where the King of the Upper World’s magic was in effect, he single-handedly dealt with the masters of the heavenly world and the absolutes.
Although it was not a long period of time, it was a good indicator of the growth of my contractor.
As Taehyun grows, the presence of the contracted princes also increases.
The Grand Dukes, who had already regained their forgotten heyday, were holding back from wanting to experiment with the Elyos right now.
[Recover quickly.]
Orgal urged Rosaria and Gilfer.
The other Grand Dukes also watched Taehyun’s recovery with similar feelings.
They know that meaningful results will follow once their contractors tumble through the thorny path.
“That’s enough. This is enough.”
Taehyun clenched and unclenched his fists.
Although it was a simple act, it was enough to confirm that my body had fully recovered.
“Igmun.”
[…?]
“I need to borrow some of your authority.”
[…It sounds like an order, not permission?]
“Behave well.”
[….]
Damn you bastard.
Igumoon muttered something like that, but Taehyun didn’t care and performed his skill.
Tiring.
[Skill Apocalypse (???) has been activated. Specifies the target.]
Hwaaaah.
Darkness fell over the area.
[What is it…?]
[Why are you doing that?]
[My brother likes the dark so much.]

[….]
[…?]
[Hehehe….]
[A gloomy guy.]
[Definitely. … A bad memory comes to mind.]
History The target of the darkness concentrated was only Jormungand, not all the archdukes.
[What does this mean?]
The Demon Sea King, who maintained his humanoid form, asked, appreciating the enormous power.
Even though the archduke’s strong body was being crushed by Taehyun’s grown mana, he had a satisfied face.
“I’m curious about something.”
[No matter how contractual we are. This kind of attitude will not be tolerated by the principal, right?]
Jormungand, who had his arms crossed, lifted his index finger.
Blue magic swirled.
This means that if any further threats are made, the devil will be summoned.
“Igmun.”
[Ha…]
Tsuzuzuzu.
Only then did Igmun understand the meaning, and his blood-red magic enveloped the area.
With Apocalypse, the Bloodfield was formed.
A field created using the power of absorption.
If the demonic sea was summoned in the current situation, a considerable amount of energy would be sucked out.
[….]
[There was something.]
The other archdukes also seemed to have sensed that something was unusual and were preparing to release their magic.
[This is a disaster… Are we going to start a turf war again?]
Kill, kill, kill.
Jormungand let out his signature vulgar laugh.
“You’d better answer well.”
Taehyun strengthened Apocalypse’s magic power little by little.
At the same time, the power of the Blood Field also increased, and Rosaria was also prepared to use Personal Space at any time.
[Jormungand. Are you doing something strange again?]
The person who asked that question was Orgal.
[A snake-like guy. What kind of accident did you get into this time?]
It was Hazard who asked that question.
[Rosaria is absolutely right.]
[You just shut up.]
Typhon spoke nonsense, and Rosaria shot back.
and.
[If it was a betrayal. Kill.]
Gilper raised his poisonous claws.
Only Elven and Lucifer watched as if things were going smoothly.
Suddenly Jormungand burst into laughter.
[There are eight Grand Dukes… It is indeed difficult for even the principal to survive. So, what are you curious about, young King of the Underworld?]
Taehyun exhaled incongruously.
“I don’t feel comfortable like this.”
[Cluck, click. [Stop acting useless.]
“Did you betray Osiris?”
It was a blunt question, but it had a significant impact.
The magic power exploded from the princes who were watching.
[That’s what a snake bastard does.]
[It’s not surprising.]
Hazard’s spirit was swirling, and Gilfer’s poisonous energy was overflowing as if it would melt the opponent at any moment.
[Let’s kill them.]
[For some reason, they’ve been quiet recently.]
The archdukes did not hide their murderous intentions.
With just a single word, the alliance of the past thousand years was destroyed.
That meant that the distrust toward Jormungand was so great, and it also meant that the trust in Taehyun was that great.
“Wait. I haven’t answered yet.”
[ha ha ha. My answer doesn’t seem to be important. Are they going to hold a hearing using human methods?]
“Don’t be mistaken.”
Tiring.
[Skill Eye of the Dream King (???) has been activated.]
[Skill Eye of the Absolute (???) has been activated.]
Red and blue eyes were opened at the same time.
Its appearance was not much different from Jormungand’s Odd Eye.
“It’s a shame that your level of power is damaged.”
Tiring.
[Skill Apocalypse (???) has been strengthened.]
[The skill’s enhancement has reached its limit.]
Kugugugung.
The archdukes’ bodies flinched from the magical power that suddenly became enormous.
This is because the magic power that was used against No Name was strengthened without any warning.
[…Good.]
Only Igmun’s face, who was using the power of absorption, was bright.
“Answer well.”
[….]
Taehyun pressed for an answer.
The darkness has fallen.
gradually. gradually.
The archduke’s body was put under pressure.
Whether it’s summoning a demonic sea or turning into its main body.
It is when you are pushed to the moment of choice.
[Brothers.]
Jormungand’s eyes turned to Typhon and Gilfer.
[You people use such expressions against Kim Tae-hyun without hesitation. But do you really think it is a relationship that lives up to its meaning?]
[….]
[…What kind of bullshit are you talking about?] Unlike
Gilfer, who remained silent, Typhon growled.
Taehyun raised his hand to stop the hasty action.
“Are you saying you’re brothers with Osiris? I definitely suspect that Odd Eye, but that alone doesn’t seem to be enough of an excuse for betrayal.”
[Hehehe. Did you say it was a betrayal?]
The Demon Sea King’s Odd Eye gave off a brilliant light.
Horsepower and divine power.
Divine magic created by mixing two powers.
Skilled divine magic enveloped the Demon Sea King’s body.
That alone took a lot of the pressure off Taehyun.
[Osiris. The relationship between me and this guy has been going on for longer than you guys think.]
[Puhuhuh. You cheeky loach. [You’re telling the truth with your own mouth.]
The Demon Sea King continued, looking pitifully at Typhon, who burst out laughing.
[We are cloned beings.]
Jormungand calmly brought up an incident from a distant time.
* * *
A time when the current archdukes were not archdukes.
Before the upper and lower worlds were divided and the anti-aircraft system was established.
The current King of Sanggye and the former King of Demon Dragon.
Baal showed interest in the birth of new species.
He saw clearly that divine power and magical power were not different, and was convinced that the powers of the Elyos and the Demons could be fused into one.
He was confident that he could artificially create a being with divine magic power.
Thus, he came into contact with ‘Ra’, the master of the 10 heavenly realms.
The two absolute beings reached a consensus and began experiments to create artificial beings.
A long time has passed.
Two beings were created by combining the powers of the Sun God and the Demon Dragon King.
A test subject with odd eyes.
Osiris was born with great divine power, and Jormungand was born with great magical power.
It was a potential that would not be strange even if he grew into a new heavenly master and grand duke in the future.
Divine power and magical power. Horsepower and divine power.
The ratio of natural strength was 9 to 1, but the potential of conflicting powers will also change depending on how it is honed.
‘Ra’ took away Osiris, and ‘Baal’ threw Jormungand into the Demon Sea.
Once again, a considerable amount of time passed.
Baal became the king of the upper world, and a new king was born in the lower world.
Several ethnic wars broke out.
Osiris in the sky and Jormungand in the Demon Sea.
It was planned that the two beings who were renowned as the Absolute and the highest species would collide.
They ripped and tore each other’s scales with their sharp fangs.
Divine power and magical power collided, causing a death-like shock.
Every time, the two beings felt a strange sense of kinship.
One day, I was recovering from a racial war.
Jormungand, who became the Grand Duke, succeeded in connecting with the 10 heavens.
Contacted Osiris.
A conversation took place.
There was a discussion about divine magic power.
They soon found out about each other’s identities.
Divine magic power is a power that is extremely rare for those who wield it even in the upper and lower worlds.
They exchanged information using gates.
[Well, that’s what happened. I only made contact, but I did not do anything particularly harmful to the underworld.]
After finishing the story, Jormungand spoke slyly.
[You traitorous bastard!!]
Kugugugung.
Hazard’s spirit put pressure on Jormungand.
Because she is sensitive to things related to Baal.
“Calm down Hazard.”
Taehyun consoled and comforted the excited Dragon Lord.
Since words alone were not enough, Hazard was able to calm his excitement only by using the power of spirit.
[Now this is it. As I said, I didn’t do anything harmful to the world. Nevertheless, if I want to fight, I will have no choice but to do my best.] The
divine magic that enveloped his body became stronger.
These are not the archdukes to watch quietly.
Since it is a 9 to 1 battle, the outcome will be certain.
‘still.’
It is impossible to damage military power during a tribal war.
When Taehyun lifted Apocalypse, the attention of the Grand Dukes focused.
“That’s it. We are going to hunt down Osiris. Cooperating will be the only way to prove your innocence.”
Smirk.
The corners of Jormungand’s mouth rose.
It’s mocking.
[You look down on that guy. It is not easy to lure a heavenly master.]
“So, there has to be a good bait, right?”
[….]
“I need to be the bait, partner.”
At Taehyun’s laughter.
