My Alter Ego’s Path to Greatness

〈 Demon World (1) 〉

The Sanghoeju’s office is in disarray.

“Hmm.”

Hubert, who was sprawled out on a top-of-the-line chair inside, let out a soft groan.

The head that was facing the floor is lifted and the eyes slowly open at the same time.

He blinked his eyelids a few times and looked around, then calmly stood up and started stretching around to warm up his body.

“Hmm, something feels sore. No matter how bad I was sitting in the wrong posture, it wasn’t like I had been there for that long…”

It was probably the aftereffects of evil magic that had infiltrated my mind to manipulate my mind.

Although the attempt itself was successfully prevented, the aftereffects caused by the penetration of high-density energy could not be assumed to have been completely non-existent.

Moreover, since Hubert had not trained any special mysteries, he was bound to be somewhat weak in this area.

‘If it were a decent opponent, this alone would have been enough.’

For a person like himself who operates on a continental scale, assassination attempts are just a part of everyday life.

Thorough security for the entire activity area, including the headquarters building. Powerful security personnel who can block even the military or special forces from attacking. Personal capabilities that go beyond simple self-defense skills.

However, such methods had no choice but to be an exception in this case.

‘Tsk, it couldn’t be helped since the opponent was the opponent.’

Hubert clicked his tongue and slowly looked around.

Diana, who had fainted, was lying down on the sofa near the reception table. Her breathing was even and she was just asleep, and there seemed to be nothing wrong with her.

After looking at her for a moment, his eyes quickly turned to where the head of the table was.

To the demons who had gathered together so calmly that it was doubtful whether they were the ones who had caused an uproar just moments ago.

Ken Miyamoto, a count-level demon, is a young man with black hair and black eyes and an ordinary appearance.

Frances is a viscount-level devil, an old gentleman wearing a pure white outfit and carrying an old-fashioned cane.

And—

with them standing in a polite manner behind her back, a demon king-level archvillain sitting alone on the sofa with his legs crossed— ‘Hela’.

The demon lord who had just descended to this earth was resting his chin on his crossed legs and lightly nodding his head while listening to the two demons talking behind him.

‘…Looking at it like this, the atmosphere is no joke.’

A beautiful appearance that is not obscured by extraneous elements such as tall horns between long, roughly tied black hair, black wings on the back, and black and red eyes.

Moreover, the figure that made even the clothes she wore roughly look like works of art because she had no women’s clothes with her, was so charming and overwhelmingly charismatic that I lowered my eyes without even daring to say anything.

Hubert was inwardly amazed at the sight and looked at his new avatar with fresh eyes.

Since this was my first time using a female avatar, I had to deal with numerous entities so far, so it was inevitable that I was still unfamiliar with it.

〈Individual Information〉

-Individual name: Hela

-Race: Demon King

-Common characteristics: 「Mind Herb」, 「Persona」, 「Xenoglossy」, 「Subspace Storage」, 「Limit Breakthrough」, 「Imitation」, 「

Individual Characteristics」: 「Demon King」, 「Annihilation」 “Ja” 「World of Demon Heaven」 「Magic Control」 「Demon Eye of Domination」 「Bright Country Color」 「Lord of Illusion」

-Special information: Han Seong-hyeon’s twelfth avatar. The horn, right arm, and eyeball containing the essence of the 14th Demon King Leraye were used as mediums. The influence of the medium was so strong that some of the characteristics from when he was alive were inherited. Not only does it contain enormous energy, but it also has strong resistance to divine power.

Not only did it achieve transcendence immediately upon birth, but it also had as many as seven individual characteristics at birth.

It is no exaggeration to say that the entity that was born as a complete form from the beginning was the Demon King Hela, as all of these were high-ranking characteristics that combined various skills and had overlapping effects.

The “Devil Lord”, which is a racial characteristic and the foundation of all abilities. The “Destroyer” who is involved in aggression and overall combat. “The World of the Demon Heavenly”, which brings its own unique domain to the world.

‘Hans also possesses “magic control.” In addition, the remaining three are….’

「Mysterious Eyes of Domination」, 「Gyeonggukjisaek」, and 「Lord of Illusion」.

These abilities, which are based on possessing and dominating an object and reigning over it, were very closely related to the lineage of Leraye, the 14th Demon King.

‘I never would have thought that the Demon King was a succubus hybrid. ‘I was inadvertently overlooking it because I was only considering the performance of the material.’

Perhaps that had a huge impact on the inability to change the sex of the individual.

It was rather strange that the mediators that possessed such power were attacked like that, but ended up becoming male.

‘Well, it’s useless to discuss it now. ‘It’s a type that hasn’t been seen before, so it must have some utility.’

After organizing his thoughts, Hubert looked at Hella with a subtle expression.

A beautiful appearance that is different from other beauties I have seen so far.

However, his gaze as he looked at such a beautiful woman contained only a wavering emotion.

…No matter how pretty she looked, she was herself.

Only the appearance was different, but the basis of existence and soul self were the same, so it was impossible to recognize them differently.

It’s like looking at yourself in a mirror, perfectly disguised as a woman.

As someone who prides himself on having extremely ordinary tastes, perhaps because he is a narcissist, I just felt very uncomfortable.

‘I might give it a high score in terms of art, though.’

Of course, if you look at it objectively, there will not be many people who can even be compared to Hella.

In any case, to be a candidate, you have to be at least the saintess Riesta, Jinsoran, Bricky and other vampires, Crown Princess Riley, the elf Shapiron, the great sorcerer Misty Jegalhyemi, the dragons of Namgoongsoran, Geumgodo Island, and the orthodox succubus, Syana… .

‘…what? ‘There’s more than I thought?’

While I was thinking like that, I paused without realizing it.

Suddenly, I realized a new fact that I had not been conscious of before.

‘Were there this many women around me?’

They are all beautiful women who show off their individual charms.

When I realized that fact, one topic naturally came to mind.

‘…Could it be that I was a rare alpha male?’

A fact that no one knew… not even the person involved!

But that unfounded confidence soon disappeared like bubbles.

I’ve never even had a real relationship, let alone a relationship, so what kind of alpha male am I?

‘Tsk then that’s right.’

For some reason, I feel a growing sense of regret.

So I decided to stop my random thoughts here and move on with the story.

“Hubert? Now that you’ve roughly figured out the situation, come over here. “I scolded them, so don’t worry.”

Hubert walked slowly to the captivating voice that tickled his ears just by hearing it and headed towards the place where the demons were.

Then, he sat on the sofa across from where Diana was sleeping and glanced at Hela, who was sitting at the head of the table.

‘The pressure is even greater when we meet up close. Even though I’m hiding my energy as much as possible.’

The two devils standing on either side of the back of the chair stared at Hubert with wide eyes.

It’s as if he wants to rip off your head the moment you commit rudeness.

Hubert, who averted his gaze at that burning loyalty, laughed inwardly.

‘It looks like there is no problem with dominance.’

Originally, it was almost impossible for even a high-ranking succubus to brainwash a powerful person who had reached that level, but in this case, the story was different.

They were a demon race with origins in the demon world, and Hella was the new ruler of the demon world with one certainty of legitimacy – the Demon King.

“I’ve explained it to these kids, so they won’t do any harm to you in the future. Now, you guys should apologize properly too, right?”

“Hmm, if you had already revealed that you were Hela’s servant, you wouldn’t have done something like this.”

“Hehehe, I almost made a big mistake too. As a body that serves a master like us, let’s forget the mistakes of the past and do well.”

Indeed, like the devil, his attitude is to just crush the apples and move on.

Of course, Hela did not let such trick go unnoticed.

“Use it.”

“…I’m sorry, please forgive me.”

“Well, I will also formally apologize. “I will make sure to repay this debt.”

A trap planted on the continent by Demon King Hela.

That was the new setting given to Hubert.

This may explain why she protected him.

And there was one more very big thing involved in this setting…

‘Is there anything more than a merchant’s relationship?’

It was at this time that he expanded his business into the demon world with the background of being a demon lord.

Of course, it won’t be easy since there is a dimensional barrier that cannot be easily crossed, but hasn’t he just found a capable slave who can be used in many ways… or even subordinates?

‘Hehehe, if Hubert Company can control the market in the Demon World…’

It didn’t matter even if that land didn’t follow a normal market economy.

After all, what he really wanted was the enormous karma that would result from exercising influence.

“Anyway, what is there to say about forgiveness when you are on the same boat? Let’s do our best from now on.”

“oh! As expected, the barrel is big. “I recognized it right away…”

“That’s what I’m saying.”

Visions of karma pouring down from the sky filled his retinas.

He lightly licked his lips, swallowed his saliva, and spoke with sparkling eyes.

“…I have a business in mind right now, but it’s not easy to proceed with it, right? “Perhaps I could get some help from you there?”

It was the moment when a dark merchant without blood or tears who sold goods to the devil in exchange for money (karma) opened his eyes.

***

“Hmm.”

Hela, who was fully armed with magic weapons taken from Horus’s “Golden Treasury,” nodded in satisfaction as she slowly clenched and unclenched her fists.

My body, which used to be awkward, has now become quite accustomed to it.

Hadn’t he already dealt with undead who had nothing but bones, stocky dwarves, and even the body of a dragon that didn’t even have a human shape left on it?

It was rather funny to be embarrassed by the size of women’s bodies now.

Of course, as he had lived his entire life as a man, there was quite a bit of residual feelings of rejection, but the “Persona” that controlled the emotions and tendencies embedded in the avatar allowed him to naturally operate “Hella” regardless of his feelings about the main body.

Just like other avatars have done so far.

However, even during that time, I couldn’t help but be concerned about the individual’s personality…

The problem was that Hella’s speech was a bit rough and easy-going, but no matter how you looked at Hella’s body, you couldn’t see it as a man.

‘Could this be the femininity that was latent inside me or something?’

What does it mean to be feminine to someone who is really masculine?

When I realized that, I couldn’t help but feel a bit uncomfortable.

‘Ugh! Harley… I need a Harley…! Harley munches on undercooked meat and swallows it!’

I feel like the internal wounds I suffered from Hans’s chubby-pathological words and actions in the early days of acquiring “Persona” are relieving.

However, I tried to think positively as I watched Harley roaring wildly and inhaling meat.

In any case, the very slightest bit of femininity that remained inside of her has been scraped to the ground and thrown into one place, so if she can control this, won’t she literally become the embodiment of a manly man?

‘Yeah, it’s not that bad if you think about it that way.’

In the process of calming down, some of Dracal’s citizens complained about noise pollution due to Harley’s roar, which showed off his wild nature, but this was something he could not do anything about.

‘…Well, I guess I could just save my money and hold a meat festival. Rather than that, the priority now is to understand the situation in the Demon World.’

Hubert, who was faithful to his role as a merchant, immediately began making preliminary preparations to open up a business route in the Demon World, but in fact, the immediate pressing concern was the problem that had now arisen in the Demon World.

The reason he started taking interest in the demon world in the first place was because of his anxiety about it.

The most important thing in solving the problem was, of course, gathering information, and in that sense, the two demons who had just left the Demon World were an excellent source of information.

…It should have been that way.

“Well, actually, I’m not that interested in the situation, so what I told Hubert is all I know. If that’s okay with you…”

“Hehe, I’m sorry. “It’s been over 5 years since I left the Demon World, so I don’t have any up-to-date information… For now, I’ll just tell you what I know.”

It was a bit unreliable, but to sum up what I heard, it could be seen as a ‘fight between factions over the next Demon King’.

It has been going on for hundreds of years and has now become an event that is nothing special.

The explanation was that this was also the reason why the Demon World was quiet during the time when the Immortal King was rampaging after the 14th Demon King Leraye invaded the continent with the Demon King’s army more than a thousand years ago.

‘…Now that I think about it, there was also an essence of a succubus queen in the “Golden Treasure” who was a member of the Demon King’s Army.’

They added ingredients of lower quality than the Demon King’s remains, but excluded them for fear of causing a negative impact…

‘They are a mixed-blood succubus demon king and a succubus queen executive. Now that I think about it, there is a possibility that their relationship was not just that of a simple monarch and subject. This must be high.’

Anyway, what was important now was the fact that besides those two demons, I had one more point of contact with the demon world.

There is also a special link that is presumed to be quite closely related to the previous Demon King.

‘Siana.’

Hans’ subordinate succubus who belongs to the Immortal Army.

Since the lifespan of the demon race is quite long, we may have known about those who died more than a thousand years ago.

Even if that weren’t the case, they produced the previous Demon King and high-ranking executives, so the remaining faction in the Demon World must not be that small.

‘If you swallow it whole…’

It will be easier to proceed with work in the demon world.

Demon King Hela nodded slowly and immediately took action.

And the immortal king Hans also began to move in step with him.

A terrible collaboration that would have made everyone in the world scream if they knew about it had begun.

No one knew that fact yet.
