My Alter Ego’s Path to Greatness

My Alter Ego’s Path to Greatness Chapter 423

Masquerade (1)

The corner of Hesperon’s eyes twitched as he was watching the situation in real time through the senses connected to Ken.

‘Masquerade?’

A group of uninvited guests broke into the Burning Torch meeting.

It was because of a very familiar name that suddenly came out of their mouths.

“That’s definitely…”

He… To be exact, it was a name that Heinz had only mentioned once.

A fictitious organization name that was uttered without much thought immediately after encountering the Doctor, the highest ranking member of the Buncheon Society in Europe, before dealing with him.

It was a name I came up with just for fun, so I’ve never said it out loud since.

‘But what they mean is that they know that…’

It was said that the Doctor, who had been killed on the spot, was revived without dying completely and succeeded in conveying relevant information to the Buncheonhoe.

…Of course, I was expecting that that might be the case.

‘After that, nothing really changes from now on. Because what was supposed to be a hypothesis turned out to be true. What’s more important now are those guys.’

His attention, which had been diverted for a moment, was focused again on the uninvited guests.

‘Mimic’, who took on the appearance of the President, as well as the six figures who joined him.

They were all exuding a powerful aura, as if proving that it was a trap deliberately prepared to target them.

‘I guess you’ve really made up your mind? Ken isn’t that bad either, but there’s no one worse than him. Plus, that guy over there seems to be the devil that we’ve only heard about…’

Hesperon noticed the man standing quietly at the very back of them with his hood pulled down and not saying a word, but he gave off a presence that overwhelms the rest. I frowned unconsciously.

A being that even Ken’s fully grown senses cannot properly estimate.

There was no need to say what that meant.

‘…This won’t be easy.’

Even while Hesperon was distracted for a moment, their conversation continued.

***

“Huh? Are you acting like a fool? I already know everything! “There are those guys behind you!”

“No, that’s not it. It’s the first time I’ve heard this… um, is that so? “Is it a name like that?”

“…under?”

A man with fair hair shouts with a scowl as if he is scolding, and Ken nods his head as if he understands what he says.

As he muttered that the name of the organization was more plausible than expected, a look of bewilderment spread across the faces of the members of Beoncheonhoe who were present, as if they finally realized that it was not a lie.

This was all the more inevitable because at their level, it was not difficult to grasp the truth hidden in words.

“What do you mean, he didn’t even know the name of the organization he was a member of…”

The head of the Southeast Asia branch of Beoncheonhoe trailed off as if something wasn’t right.

If that is true, it is not even at a level that can be simply dismissed as terminal.

Outsourcing? service? part time job?

No matter what you call it, there is no change in the fact that it falls far short of their original goal.

Of course, it was not surprising that there was resentment in his voice as he had to work so hard to do this, sacrificing his already insufficient hair roots.

But…

in fact, there were other people here who really needed to vent their anger.

“—Masquerade and Nabal, I guess it’s good.”

Suddenly, a growling female voice came out from the center of the Burning Torch executives who had retreated and gathered together.

A word filled with deep emotion, as if chewing up and spitting out anger that had been bottled up.

“The Fuhrer is asking what happened to Frey—!”

With a shout from within, a fierce force surged from where they were gathered, as if it was about to explode.

‘Mimic’, who was looking at Ken with his arms crossed, turned his head to face the Fuhrer towards them.

“ha.”

Then a short sigh escaped.

Over there, the boiling anger was taking shape and burning hotly, but the middle-aged man’s expression did not contain the slightest trace of emotion.

It’s like a lion looking down at a puppy barking right in front of it.

“Do you have to say it to know it? “This is truly stupid.”

“What…? You…!”

“I have only one thing to say about him.”

Right after those words were finished.

After his identity was revealed, his face, which had always remained expressionless, changed.

All the muscles on his face twitched as if in a convulsion, and a bizarre, even eerie smile appeared.

And from Mimic’s mouth, which was wearing a distorted smile, a voice with a strange, humorous heat flowed out.

“-I really enjoyed the meal.”

“…!”

A word I uttered while stroking my stomach with one hand.

For a moment, a heavy silence swept over the son-in-law.

But the silence didn’t last long.

“…Nenoom!”

“dare!”

“I’ll kill you—!”

In fact, it was only natural, considering that even An, who had communicated telepathically several times beforehand, did not notice anything wrong until they met face to face.

That was something that couldn’t have happened if he didn’t have everything that made up the Fuhrer.

However, I couldn’t help but feel even more painful when what I had only guessed became reality.

“Pre… ugh!”

He was the leader and spiritual leader who formed the Burning Torch and led them until now, and was also Ahn’s close friend.

However, to someone who was under a lot of stress as the work in progress went wrong, the victims’ anger only felt like delicious food.

“How about it? Those guys who ran away while Freddie stayed behind to buy time are now acting worried. Haha! “This is so ridiculous it makes me laugh!”

As if everything was going well, the head of the Southeast Asia branch, who had had numerous conflicts with them, stepped forward and chuckled.

“He was definitely a great guy. Because of him, our plans have failed more than once. “He must have been confident because he had already successfully escaped from this group several times.”

The branch manager shrugs his shoulders while praising the other person as if acknowledging him.

However, the sneer on his lips clearly revealed that those words were not at all out of kindness.

“If he had any misfortune, it would be that he was your incompetent leader. Now look! In the end, it ended up like this, right? Wow, that was really funny. The guy who didn’t give up until the end, when he was close to death, gave up…”

“Shut up! venomous snake! “You, who have never defeated the Fuhrer, are not someone I can insult!”

The branch manager, who was talking excitedly, was cut off by the anger erupting from the other side.

It seemed as if he had touched on a traitor that I was secretly concerned about.

After a moment of silence, he spoke again in a more subdued voice.

“…Whew, whatever. After all, the last person left standing is the final winner. And let me correct one thing. This body is not a poisonous snake, but Nagaraja.”

“under! It sounds like let’s get out. You are a poisonous snake. “You vile and shameless bastard.”

“Kpuhuh…. Good, very good. Let’s see how long that momentum lasts.”

The space began to vibrate due to the momentum boiling on both sides.

Because one side was prepared to die, it looked like a dragon and tiger on the outside, but in fact, the power gap was so wide that such a large distance itself was not possible.

‘…Ah, this has gone beyond what can be done with grit, right? The moment we face each other, we will be swept away in an instant.’

Thanks to an enemy, Ken finally learns the name of the organization he belongs to.

He, who was in the most objective position here, frowned and calmly analyzed the situation.

Based on simple numbers, this side was superior, but in the current situation, that indicator did not have much meaning.

‘There are six who crossed the wall from the side of the burning torch. I’m not sure if they’re the same demon, but I guess we can roughly think of them as two marquis-level and four earl-level demons?’

Even so, Ahn and Malfi, which seemed to be the most prestigious, seemed far from the combat group.

In terms of actual combat power, it would have to be considered as an earl-level six.

‘It’s probably something that can’t be helped. ‘I heard that many combat-type transcendents were sacrificed in the process of resisting the chase.’

On the other hand, although the total number of members of the Beoncheonhoe was only seven, all of them were marquis level or higher.

Nagaraza, the branch leader, even looked like a duke, and the devil called the Executioner was so powerful that not even Ken could properly measure it.

In fact, even if he were to join, the odds of victory or defeat were already so tilted that nothing could be done.

‘…This is bad. Let alone helping them, it would be difficult to take care of myself. ‘We have to get out of here right now.’

Now he has been summoned to this Earth through some kind of method.

If I can just cancel the summoning, I should be able to return to the demon world at any time… right?

His body, which he was secretly observing, suddenly stopped.

‘what? what? ‘Is this really possible?’

Then, as he realized the seriousness of the situation, his eyebrows trembled.

At that moment, there was another person who lamented for the same reason as Ken.

“Ugh! Why is it that everything else is done but the blockade of space is not lifted…?”

Malfi is the person who built this secret space.

She closed her eyes tightly to concentrate and tried to log in again.

However, no matter how much appropriate administrator authority was given, the tightly closed space would not open like a broken door lock.

Even though she actively used auxiliary magic tools to minimize the burden on the caster, the current situation was by no means unusual for her, who prided herself on having mastered this system.

“Hehehe, it’s no use trying to run away now. This space has already been completely sealed off. “We took great care to make sure we hunted down the Masquerade guys.”

I’ve already tried their escape methods several times, so I put a lot of effort into preparing this time.

Nagaraza, who seemed to have noticed her expression and continued speaking with a sneer, glared at Ken with slightly annoyed eyes.

Despite all his efforts, he gave off an expression as if this was the only killifish he caught.

-hey! employer! If this continues, I’m really going to die! Do something quickly! Just send me back!

However, Ken did not even have time to express his resentment at the unfair treatment.

In order to somehow escape the current situation, he was busy exchanging constant communication with the culprit who pushed him into this situation.

Fortunately, even though the space was sealed off, there were no problems communicating through the “Chain of Covenant.”

-Uhm, indeed. I guess what they say is true. The cancel summon function has been completely blocked. How did they do it? Phenomenon fixed? Is it a reversal of cause and effect?

-Don’t just admire! If this continues, I’m going to die! really! Do you think they’ll just leave me alone?

-Of course I won’t leave you alone. Wouldn’t we squeeze our souls, extract information to the limit, and then disassemble it from head to toe, removing all the scraps that can be recycled?

-If you know that, please!

These are the people who arbitrarily control even the spaces created by other people’s abilities.

Even that side has demons, so most tricks won’t work.

Hesperon knew this and could no longer afford to be silent.

-I can’t help it. Then, just be patient.

-…what? What? What are you trying to do that is so ominous… kek!

Ken’s body began to wriggle. Before he knew it, an enormous amount of energy began to flow back through the “Chain of the Pact” that was deeply embedded in his mind.

‘Woof! This…!’

It was a curse that once tried to swallow him whole, and a branch of energy split from this body.

It was rushing towards him with incredible force.

As if he was somehow trying to make up for the lack of being Ken.

With the help of Hesperon’s many skills, he achieved a temporary union of energy and body, and his status began to soar to great heights.

“…Huh? “You’re doing something interesting.”

The energy was clearly rising, so of course others could not help but notice the change.

Among them, the man who was standing quietly at the very back of the group, without saying a word, showed a particularly loud reaction.

“I’ve seen demons from other places a few times… but this is very interesting.”

“…hey?”

“That guy is mine.”

Despite Nagaraja’s cautious calls, Hood’s male executioner paid no heed and continued to say what he had to say.

Nagaraja quietly closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and opened his mouth as gently as possible.

“You know, right? That guy is a member of the Masquerade. It may be a bit unreliable to say it, but you know that as long as you are sure that the line is being reached, you need to grasp it as fully as possible and squeeze out everything you know…” “

If you interfere, I will kill you.”

“…Okay, do whatever you want.”

And then I quickly gave up on the blunt answer.

There was nothing he could do when that living nuclear bomb reacted like that.

Probably no one will be able to break that guy’s will unless the leader or the oracle comes forward.

“Then we’ll be clearing out those bastards, so please don’t kill them. We’ll do whatever it takes as long as we have time to breathe.”

“I’ll try.”

The executioner, who spoke in a voice that even had a completely disbelieving smile on his face, trudged forward.

Aiming for a prey that would entertain him who had been spending his boring days ever since he captured the Führer.

Phudduddduk!

The next moment, his appearance changed completely.

It has pitch-black scales growing all over its body, four sharp horns rising from its large body exceeding 3 meters, and a long tail that swings like a whip with sharp tips like a pair of wide-spread spearheads of bat wings.

The Great Devil grinned, revealing his jagged teeth.

[How much fun can you make me?]

After inheriting the devil’s legacy—total record: 9,986 matches, 9,977 wins, 9 losses.

Every time he got the chance, he attacked Beoncheonhoeju and won every fight except for the 9th loss where he was crushed.

The strongest fighter of the Buntian Society—the executioner smiled fiercely and charged at the demon from another dimension who had just raised his head.

***

A secret space full of machines everywhere.

‘First of all, I strengthened Ken as much as possible, but…’

Hesperon, who was sitting in the armchair in the center, looked at his right arm, where the bandage had come off.

Even though all the avatars, led by Dwarf Howard, were working together to create the seal, some more time was still needed to complete the seal.

The power contained within this arm was so great that it would be insufficient to say that it was too much to handle at his level.

‘…Still, it’ll be hard to beat him with that.’

At least it’s a temporary measure.

It was natural that there were limitations as it was just a matter of forcibly inserting reinforcements using various tricks rather than properly overcoming the wall.

Not only is the power not perfect, but the holding time will not be very long either.

“Still, it will buy me some time.”

Hesperon stood up and twisted his arms and legs to relieve his sore body from lying down all day.

‘Okay then.’

Then, he gently closed his eyes and checked the status of his other avatars.

“Let’s send real reinforcements.”

It will be revealed to the world in earnest.

A strong support group that will be the starting point for ‘Masquerade’.
