Chapter 414
My Alter Ego’s Path to Greatness Chapter 414
Demon World War (1)
“Hmm, did that happen as well?”
After hearing her subordinate’s report, Hela slowly nodded.
“I fully expected it… But now that it has become reality, I can’t help but feel regretful.”
Just in case, I was preparing a grand welcome ceremony.
She sighed and looked at Siana next to her, saying it was a pity that the best solution had gone to waste.
“That’s why Operation Dragon Lasso has been cancelled. “I guess we should move on to the next plan.”
“That’s too bad. “If I did it right, I could have finished it easily.”
“Well, I guess they’re not that stupid either.”
Hela’s eyes turned to the strategy map that filled the large table.
Demon World Evangelism, where various types of horses are placed everywhere.
Her eyes narrowed when she saw two particularly large horses standing side by side.
‘Demon Dragon Duke Crushire…’
In fact, if he was at his level, it wouldn’t be that difficult to bypass the gateway and use space movement.
Of course, doing so would mean giving up the use of large-scale troops, but the superior mobility could be applied in many other directions.
For example, quickly rallying the remnants of the Dark Nest that have not yet completely fallen into Helheim’s hands…
‘Hmm, maybe I should have secretly revealed Ken’s location to that guy? …No, that’s too big of a variable. ‘It’s a shame, it’s a shame.’
If things had really gone my way, I would have been able to grab the guy’s leash right away.
She sighed, thinking of the prey that had escaped the trap she had prepared with so much care, and opened her mouth, twisting her long hair with her fingers.
“Are there any other communications other than that?”
“Yes, I think they are particularly concerned about security because they have suffered from it in the past. “The connection between the two forces was not that difficult as it was very difficult to hide in the first place, but the details of the discussions were separate.”
“Well, I guess I’ve been particularly lucky so far.”
“That’s how much everyone believes in Hella. “Hela is the true Demon King of the Demon World.”
Hela burst into laughter at the sight of Siana openly flattering and smiling brightly.
Well, it was only natural that the hegemony of the demon world was slowly becoming visible.
Who would have thought that Dream Walker, who was a light in the wind until Hela appeared, would become the greatest contributor to the election of the Demon King?
As she was secretly feeling the pressure as the heir to power, she couldn’t help but be more pleased with this achievement.
‘Of course, not all problems have been solved yet.’
Hela, leaning back on the chair, looked at the horses on the map again. The
Duke of Darkness, who had become extremely enraged after being stabbed in the back repeatedly, and the Duke of Darkness, who realized that he had been thoroughly exploited.
Not long ago, the two who were fighting to the death were dramatically joining hands to fight against him. Now, in order to become the true king of the demon world, he needed to crush them first.
Heart pounding – pounding –
she closed her eyes, feeling the strong throbbing of her heart.
‘It really isn’t that long ago.’
As time passed, I felt that my body was gradually becoming connected to this world – the ‘demon world’.
With the presence of countless people who follow and follow him who breathes and lives within it.
This is the true authority of the devil.
It was the true power of the Demon King, who had no choice but to become the strongest in the Demon World.
《The devil is looking down on you.》
And so time passes.
Finally, a large-scale attack by the Demon Dragon and Darkness Allies began on Helheim’s wider front.
***
The office is completely immersed in darkness.
Pieta, the Duke of Darkness, was lost in thought with a pair of blue eyes shining.
‘Things are getting complicated.’
All previously made plans have long since been abandoned.
At this urgent moment, all he can do is react on the fly.
He usually enjoyed using intrigue and noble tactics rather than simple force, but in the current situation, even those things had no choice but to be greatly overshadowed.
‘In the end, strength is the best in the demon world.’
In the first place, the underworld was a means possible because of information from people who had been in conflict for hundreds of years.
This is something I learned naturally as I tried to find the loopholes of my formidable competitors.
On the other hand, Hela, who suddenly appeared from nowhere and no one knows how, and the organization she founded called Helheim, were truly a mass of variables.
What can and cannot be done, what are the limits of the members, who makes the plan, what are the values of the leader and the organization’s tendencies.
Unknown.
In order to overcome this, a lot of effort was made to plant informants in Helheim, but the results were not very satisfactory.
No matter how strong his heart was, when he got close to Hella, he eventually became a fanatic and confessed all of his schemes.
In the end, when it came to information warfare, this side had no choice but to be pushed out no matter what.
As if I had been stabbed in the back not long ago.
‘Given the circumstances, Hella is likely behind the incident that provoked Crushire.’
However, Duke Demon Dragon, who identified himself as the culprit, immediately raised his entire army and launched a massive attack.
Is it really a great secret or are we still in doubt?
Even now, after meeting in person to resolve the misunderstanding and return to a cooperative relationship, I have not heard the exact cause, but there must be a reason to point out him as the mastermind.
“It happened right after those two collided head on. Then….”
It was said that the Duke of Darkness had the ability to plan something that would require the Duke of Darkness to take action in Helheim without Hela.
Worst case scenario—perhaps an unidentified peacock-level strongman is attached to her.
If that were true, the competition was practically over.
‘…It’s a pain in the ass. After all, I need to prepare a way out in advance.’
Of course I was greedy for the Demon King’s throne, but that was not more important than life.
Perhaps because of the war that lasted for hundreds of years, the situation became overheated to the point where two Dukes eventually died.
He had no intention of becoming the third victim.
***
The war, which had temporarily quieted down, resumed again.
It was an all-out war aimed at most of the border area, rather than targeting a single point like Hella did.
As if trying to take advantage of Helheim, which had become unstable due to internal governance.
Helheim was busy absorbing the demons belonging to the existing Dark Nest that had entered its sphere of influence for a while, but with powerful enemies joining hands to attack, it could not focus on internal affairs forever.
The territory has expanded, the enemy has become stronger, and there are still uneasy elements of internal strife.
The reason Helheim was able to survive without collapsing was thanks not only to Hela but also to the many talented people who supported her firmly.
And it was not long after the war resumed that good news was delivered to Dream Worker, who was that talented person and the biggest supporter… for example, a person who could be considered a public servant.
“Congratulations, Godmother!”
“As expected, you are my godmother. “I’ve been waiting for this day for so long…”
“Congratulations! “You finally succeeded!”
Dream Walker’s godmother Liliana, who was in charge of defending the territory while Hela was raiding the Dark Nest’s main base, was finally crowned as the new duke.
Excitement filled the faces of those gathered for this great news that could drive a wedge into the current situation.
“Hehehe, it’s all thanks to everyone’s patience. … Above all, if Hella had not given us grace, it would have been impossible in the first place.”
She looked down at her palm and smiled bitterly.
His skill level was not yet high, so he was far behind other Duke-level demons, but as his level had risen, he knew best how much he had been lacking before.
Without the ‘Essence of the Succubus Queen’ given by Hela, it would have been impossible for him, who had no talent, to become Duke from the beginning.
‘The fact that I was able to become a marquis, albeit belatedly, was purely thanks to my bloodline of the Demon King and Queen. If that wasn’t even there….’
Even when her sister Leraye became the Demon Lord, she was barely able to rise to the rank of count.
Even though we were in an environment where we could receive almost unlimited support for what we needed for growth.
In fact, in the demon world, the count alone was high enough to be called a high-ranking demon, but compared to his sisters who became demon lords, he couldn’t help but look like he was lacking a lot.
Cough—
pink magical power overflowed from his tightly clenched fist.
A pure magic that I could only feel when my mother was alive.
That same power was now filling within me.
‘How on earth can I repay this favor?’
I received so much that it almost felt overwhelming.
In order to repay this favor even a little, it would be best to help him ascend to the position of true devil as soon as possible.
“Whew—then how about we start off lightly?”
That’s how Liliana, the Duke of Mongma, appeared on the front lines.
and.
“Long live Duke Mongma!”
[For Helheim!]
“Waaa—!”
Not long after she came forward.
A battlefield has been neatly organized.
***
[Is it Liliana, that prostitute?]
Upon hearing the subordinate’s report, the demon dragon’s vicious face distorted even more frighteningly.
It’s like adding insult to injury.
Even so, the turmoil of the demons under his command is growing. In this situation, one more duke-level strongman has been added to the enemy camp?
‘The best bet is for that greedy prodigal woman to set up a confrontation with the hybrid…’
I made a hopeful observation for a while, but no matter how much I thought about it, the possibility was not very high.
Because in the first place, the two could not be said to have a simple military-lord relationship.
Also, in the current situation, betraying Hella and going his own way was a decision that could not be made unless his brain was completely marinated in dark magic.
‘What the fuck is this….’
There’s really no chance of winning now.
Until recently, I was confident that I would become the Demon King.
How did it end up like this?
‘also? Is this happening again? I am this Crushire. also?’
It was a future that had been hoped for for thousands of years and was finally here.
I thought I would be able to get my hands on it this time.
I thought I could laugh at the fate that interfered with me at every turn!
His three pairs of eyes glowed with death as his anger soared to the extreme.
Black flames seeped out from between the sharp teeth and from the densely protruding scales from the nostrils.
When his once firm composure was disturbed, a certain energy that had unknowingly permeated him while he was staying at the temple cautiously stimulated him.
Just so slightly that he wouldn’t even realize it.
[Koooooo——!]
At this point, it was clear.
Another demon is blocking his path!
To prevent people from dragons who are not from the demon world from sitting in the seat of the devil!
In order to avoid the intervention of the demon god as much as possible, he even joined hands with the nameless god.
Now that those who invaded the temple had ruined the great plan that had taken hundreds of years to prepare, all that was left to him was boiling hatred.
‘Could it be that they broke into the temple…? …No, it is certain that the prostitute was at the marquis level not long ago. We must have really overcome the wall this time.’
Although he had a twisted and impatient personality, he was by no means an idiot.
Even after pointing out the Duke of Darkness as the mastermind and launching the attack, several verifications were completed just in case, and the innocence of all known marquis-level demons, including Liliana, had already been confirmed.
The only opponent he couldn’t be sure of was Pieta, the Duke of Darkness who had reached a similar level to himself and used strange secret arts.
Even though his priorities had changed due to the sudden situation where the main camp was being wiped out, he still did not let go of his suspicions about Pieta.
If you’re that gloomy skeleton that likes to make useless plots, you might be trying to deceive yourself this time too.
Therefore, even though he pretended that the misunderstanding had been resolved, he did not neglect monitoring Pieta beyond attacking Helheim.
The persistent gaze of the greatest warlock in the demon world, both in name and reality.
[…under! Ha ha ha ha ha! I knew it would be like this! Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha]
I ended up capturing suspicious circumstances.
[Pieta How dare you——! Are you trying to fool me?!]
A suspicious contact that occurred in the midst of a war with each other.
And the unnatural movements that followed added confirmation to his suspicions.
[Hehehe… As expected, the two kites were holding hands and screwing me over from the beginning. [He was looking at me as a very rude person.]
The temple attack that occurred during the direct battle, the war resulting from the retaliation, the Dark Nest’s stronghold being occupied, and Pieta’s peace offering were all well-planned scenarios.
To completely deceive yourself and put a noose around your neck.
‘…If you guys turn out like this, I can’t help it.’
Now there is no place to retreat anymore.
If I lose the competition this time, this will definitely be the end of my long life.
If they had figured out what they were planning at that temple, there was no way they would have let him live.
[Pieta. Look at me for a moment.]
-“What’s going on, Duke Demon Dragon? I’m busy right now. As you know, things went wrong because of Duke Mongma.”
[That goes for me as well. Please take some time because it is absolutely necessary. Now that I can definitely catch that hybrid.]
-“Hmm?”
So it was.
Now I was the devil and conquered the continent, so it was good.
All that filled his insides was hot, burning anger.
“Kuh, really? “What kind of crazy thing is this? Demon Dragon!”
[Hehehehe! Hahahaha! Crazy? No, this is the correct answer! It should have been done this way a long time ago!]
“Sacrificing all those who followed…! Do you think you can become a demon lord after doing something like this?!”
[It doesn’t matter.]
So just.
I decided to destroy everything.
The demons who still followed the Demon Dragon Duke evaporated.
Based on that, the Duke of Darkness, who had been defending himself firmly, also fell into the hands of the demon dragon.
and.
The door to the abyss has opened in the demon world.
