Sword Emperor Reincarnated as a Swordsmith (270)
‘He was a strong enemy.’
I can’t give him a low evaluation just because he killed one of the previous Black Dragon Knight commanders, but [Belial]’s potential was many times more threatening than his combat power.
A royal-level demon, a strong man who was confirmed to be a demi-god from birth, tried to acquire even the remaining talents granted to the weak.
In the end, that choice brought about his destruction, but it wasn’t enough to recreate the meridians, and when he got close to the martial arts of mental imagery, his spine froze. I can’t imagine what would have happened if I had been taught in earnest instead of just imitating from the corner of my eye.
‘···When I think about it, martial arts is the study that mortals want to reach the divine realm, and since it was practiced by someone who is no different from a part of an evil god, is it natural that the growth rate would be that fast?’
For an ordinary person, martial arts training was a means to overcome the limitations of his or her birth and advance to a higher being, but for [Belial], it would have been a milestone for him to return to his original roots.
“Ugh.”
Leonard’s body, which was reliving the previous situation, stumbled for a moment.
It had to be that way.
It was good to induce a match of all odds with
“Captain! Are you okay!”
“No problem.”
The golden knights who came to finish the heart demon stand right around him and enter the Four Lords border.
The battle between [Belial] and Leonard was something they could also see out of the corner of their eyes. Even though they were demigod-level demons, they were dealing with people who were all dying, and the stability of 〈Eighteen Arthros〉 was not at a level where it could be shaken by newborn demons.
We can’t help but focus our attention on the confrontation between the demons who continue to grow stronger by the second and Cardenas, the youngest ever knight commander.
“Are you watching?”
Leonard, who had seen [Axiocersus], the statue of the King of Immortals, spoke before the fortune teller.
To be precise, it was said to [Hades] beyond.
-of course. It was a good fight that could be dedicated to a shrine.
It was an expression that could be considered a high praise for the gods, who often scoff even if they pile up gold and silver treasures as high as mountains.
However, Leonard was not impressed and went about his business.
“Please inform me of the combat status of other units. “There is one piece of information that needs to be conveyed urgently.”
-There are no units that have yet entered combat or attempted to enter enemy territory. I will connect you to [Axiocersus], so speak with your own mouth.
“All right.”
This was also one of the reasons why Leonard and the Golden Dragon took over the shortest distance. This is because it was the unit that could guarantee the highest survival rate when an unprecedented variable appeared.
Soon, the voices of four people were heard from [Axiocersus].
{It’s Wade.}
{It’s Simon.}
{Damian.}
{I’m Cruella!}
Except for Simon, who was moving alone, the other three were leading each unit as leaders.
Leonard immediately stopped the four units and told them everything that had happened in the battle with [Belial], whom he had defeated earlier. The influence that [Axiocersus] could not control was not enough to create new high-ranking demons, but it also strengthened the named demons.
{I think I know why that happened.}
The person who understood the circumstances before anyone else was a great mage worthy of the title of Chairman of the Mystical Association.
Simon Magus said.
{Basically, demons don’t need to eat or drink when they are in the demon world. Nevertheless, they are busy eating each other. Why would you do that?}
Starting from the flesh and blood demons equivalent to slaves, to the brain and heart equivalent to royalty.
Even though they had reached the level of a demi-god, the urge to eat the same kind of food remained because the entire race was part of the [Kromdub]. The imperfectly scattered body struggles to become complete again.
When they evolve to the noble level, their individual ego develops, so even if they eat others, they are not willing to risk their own bodies. It was even at the commoner level that the authority to command from top to bottom was absolute. In other words, if the situation and conditions allowed, even royalty would eat their own people without hesitation.
{As thousands of demons gathered at the base were slaughtered, the [Chromedub] contained in their blood and flesh coalesced into one and was born as a single entity. Named, [Belial] was also a powerful demon, so he must have accepted part of his power and evolved his body.}
“Even if it’s not alive? No, it would be easier if it were dead. “This is because there is no individual will to interfere with the cohesion of influence.”
{Well, it’s bound to be faster and simpler since there’s no need for the process of eating each other. It’s difficult to deal with this with magic. Even the 9th level is not enough to block the perfection granted to [Chromedub]’s body.}
The world’s greatest great mage raised his hands without hesitation.
Even if it is only a shell of the 10th rank, a person of skill who has reached that level has given up. It was like telling everyone that there was nothing that could be done with magic.
{If it is a fundamentally unsolvable problem, it should be handled in a way that minimizes damage and impact.}
Wade said.
As a veteran, he knew it well. In reality, it can be considered lucky that a solution that fits the situation well appears two or three times out of ten.
Moreover, it is a demonic conquest that has never been attempted in the history of the Arcadia Empire. They had already prepared for the possibility that an unprecedented variable unfavorable to them would appear.
{It would be better to exclude high-ranking demons first and postpone organizing the minors until later. As General Manager Leonard experienced, it is more dangerous for the name class to be strengthened. Even if a new demon is born, it will be a fool who can’t even utilize his own specifications.}
{Could it be possible for noble-level demons to evolve?}
Simon responded as if to agree with what Cruella said.
{It is possible. It is expected that ‘teeth’ will be reborn as ‘heart’ and ‘tongue’ will be reborn as ‘brain’. This is because it is a lineage that splits into two major directions: physical ability and paranormal ability.}
{Is it possible that the ‘heart’ and the ‘brain’ will merge?}
{I can’t say for sure that it’s 0, but… This is a case that has never been discovered before. This is something that might happen in a large-scale battle, so you should be prepared.}
{Ha, I might be unintentionally helping them rise in status. As soon as you put on the crown, your head will be blown off.}
With Damien’s growl, the captains’ meeting ended and [Axiocersus] fell silent again.
Perhaps because he had accepted a large amount of influence, the King of Fudo walked around with an even more intense presence. With each footprint, one by one, the ground that had been contaminated with the blood and flesh of the demons is completely purified.
Among the Five Great Kings, whose entire body is engulfed in flames that edify demons, the one who sits at the center is none other than the Immortal King.
Even when he became an apostle of [Hades], his power was still there.
-This should be enough. We will expand the new area there, so don’t be alarmed and be alert to your surroundings.
“All right.”
-Let’s begin.
Two royal-level demons, dozens of noble-level demons, and countless more demons below the commoner level died.
All of that influence was delivered to [Hades] through [Axiocersus], and it was possible to regain nearly five or six times the power that was secured at Garrison No. 7.
The underground world that was polluted by [Chrome Doub] is restored to its original state.
The most famous and powerful of the five rivers, the Styx (Στ?ξ), is created and draws a line as if to isolate the outside.
‘It looks narrower and shallower than what I saw before… How many times more is the power and power contained within it? If the Styx of the old era is recreated, it will be difficult for demons to invade that border.’

It is a river of deterrence that separates the living from the dead and can even restrain gods. There was a reason why [Hades] implemented the Styx before the palace itself.
“I’m going to meditate for a while. “Please provide vigilance and escort.”
“Yes, Captain.”
Leonard, who had ordered the Golden Knights to be on guard, immediately sat down on the ground and crossed his legs.
Named class demon, [Belial].
Even though it was a monster, it was a threatening entity that tried to steal human technology, but in that fight, Leonard also learned something from it. It was a realization that arose from the ignorant idea that if his two arms were not enough, he could increase them to four.
Of course, Leonard was not saying that he wanted to increase his arms to four, but the idea was related to the deification of the five elements.
‘Since we have already created the balance of yin and yang taegeuk with Xuanwu and Suzaku, if we awaken other five elements, a conflict will inevitably occur. There is no way you can wake up the white tiger and blue dragon and then control the yellow dragon. But what if you manage that energy by sending it outside for a while?’
If there is an area that cannot be completed inside the body, the solution is to expel it outside the body. If someone had heard it, they would have said that I went crazy due to the magic trick, but the sound echoed several times in my mind.
‘With Yin-Yang Taigeuk, send out the stable Suzakuji and Xuanwuji, and then with Thunder Wind Sangbak (雷風相搏), send out the Blue Dragon and White Tiger jigi. After separating it again, the Yellow Dragon Guardian is awakened, and the power that was sent out of the body is accepted and recovered. This… There is a possibility.’
If you create them one by one within the body, what has already been created interferes with their formation and harmony, so the method was to temporarily separate the things that had already been stabilized as opposites and then unite them later.
It is different from Honwon (混元), where only one is completed without thinking about it complicatedly, and Taegeuk (太極), where both are trained together from the beginning.
It is also different from the three talents that fit together well just by following the order, and the four skills that are completed through the principle of circulation.
If it is the Five Elements, it has no choice but to go like this.
‘?If you can’t separate them well and mix them up, you end up with the Five Great Souls.’
I was able to guess it earlier as Grace’s teacher on the other hand.
After thinking that far, Leonard opened his closed eyelids.
The idea itself was good, but it was judged to be too early to attempt to break through Shinhwagyeong.
“Golden Dragon, it’s moving again. “I don’t think there’s any need to return to base defense, so let’s prepare for support from other units or unexpected situations.”
As soon as Leonard’s order was given, the Golden Knights quickly formed a line and returned to their marching stance.
Toward the demon base closest to this point.
An army of 36 people, including one person, begins to run at high speed.
* * *
The mobile warfare of the Demon World conquest army was fully successful.
All five bases selected as operational targets were devastated, and all the influence generated by the approximately 100,000 demons was collected by [Hades] and used to expand and strengthen the divine area.
The River Styx, which was narrow and shallow like a stream, suddenly gained a depth of several meters and a width of over 30 meters.
One might ask whether a monster, not an ordinary person, could just jump over 30 meters, but could the power of God be that simple? The River Styx itself was like a barrier that blocked everything that was not permitted.
It was the completion of the area around No. 7 [Hell Gate] as an outpost.
“Well, I guess this is all we can gain from the surprise attack.”
Cruella said with regret.
Even though an area the size of several great territories was secured in just one day, the Demon World was still vast, and the number of demigods, including the Named class, exceeded all of them.
There was a need to inflict maximum damage before entering into an all-out war.
Still, the atmosphere of the strategy meeting was not too bad.
