Shincon’s One Coin Clear

Episode 174. Demon Realm Trial (2)

‘I knew that he was collaborating with Barbatos behind the scenes, but I thought he would recruit three more demon lords including Agares.’

To be honest, even Dantalian did not anticipate the situation in which half of the trial had already passed since the beginning.

The Demon King was a being who extremely disliked listening to other people’s orders.

In the first place, all beings who reached the level of transcendence in one field had no choice but to do so.

Pride and self-esteem worthy of the state were natural.

According to Dantalian’s calculations, the current situation, a collaboration between Furkas and Barbatos, was a situation where the navel was bigger than the belly.

‘In order to move a single demon lord like this, on average, it takes about 2 powers worth.’

It’s not exactly quantified, but it’s usually the case in Dantalian’s experience.

If you consider that Dantalian is a very resourceful demon king, you might have heard more.

This meant that Purkas and Barbatos were trading at least 8 Powers or something comparable in order to split only 5 Powers.

Dantalian looked at Barbatos with a new face.

Barbatos was a demon king who had no interest in the lower level of the dimensional labyrinth.

This is especially true for humans.

In fact, its movement was barely observed.

A couple of times found on the floor of Shax was definitely the end.

‘You have the same high regard for player Yun Taeyang as I do. No, more precisely, I am wary of my evaluation.’

The gazes of Barbatos and Dantalian, who were looking down from the jury seat, met.

Dantalian grinned.

Barbatos.

A man who is said to be the 8th rank demon king and the most competent hunter in all dimensions.

At the same time, he was also the demon king who bet on the orcs in the battle between the orcs, elves and humans on the top floor of the dimensional labyrinth.

It seemed that the hunter’s intuition was convinced after seeing Dantalian’s movements.

That Taeyang Yoon is a talented person who can reverse the aspects of competition among the top class.

“Barbatos, if you’re going to prepare, why don’t you take one more?”

Yeah, it wouldn’t have changed anything.

Baal opened his mouth.

“Testify.”

Dantalian raised his hand.

“We demand that the court ‘force the truth’ on the witnesses.”

truth coercion.

An attribute used when demanding the perfect truth in the Demon Realm Court.

The most dangerous weapon that strikes the soul if you tell a lie.

Baal looked at Purkas.

Purkas nodded.

“I allow it.”

Defendant Dantalian’s request and plaintiff Purkas’ permission.

And the permission of Baal, the judge, was dropped.

In response to Baal’s command, the Court’s ‘enforcement of truth’ trait engulfed the sun.

Dantalian suppressed the corner of his mouth that was about to rise.

The reason why he did not attack Purkas and only defended him in the story.

Because I was drawing this picture in the first place.

Dantalian doesn’t play losing games.

The way to win was also thought out from the beginning.

To ‘lie’ to the ‘forced truth’ trait.

If you get hit with the most primitive and powerful punishment given by the court, if you get judged first.

The verdicts of judges and juries become meaningless.

Double jeopardy (一事不再理).

A case in which a final judgment has occurred cannot be tried again.

Therefore, you cannot ask for the punishment again for the crime for which you have paid the penalty.

Dantalian smiled broadly.

“Player Yun Taeyang. You can testify.”

The sun looked at Dantalian.

“The only way out of this situation is your testimony.”

Dantalian has been through a lot of verification by observing the sun.

Competitiveness in confrontation with Talent Mental Power Demon King.

Taeyang exceeded the standards set by Dantalian in all of those tests.

So Dantalian reached out to the sun and caught him.

But Dantalian still doubted the sun.

No matter how talented a prospect is, there are times when it doesn’t grow as expected.

even a lot

It is a law that requires endless verification until entering the adult league.

Not even after entering.

It is the fate of every player to endlessly prove their abilities, both in the highest league and at the top of the league.

To go further, it is a fate not only for players but also for beings living in all competitive societies.

Dantalian thought so.

One might think that Dantalian’s suspicions were pathological.

Dantalian had no intention of denying it either.

He was by nature unable to trust others.

That’s why he sent Taeyang back to the guillotine for verification, even taking the risk that could come fatal to him.

‘Now, show me one more time.’

Dantalian looked at the sun in the witness stand with burning eyes.

***

Two lines of text appeared in the system window.

[Presiding Judge Baal orders the witness, Taeyang Yoon, to testify.]

[The ‘Forcing the Truth’ trait mortgages the soul of the player Taeyang Yoon.]

Kuung.

Soon the sun was standing right in the center of the judge.

A total of 12 Transcendentalists, including Purkas and Dantalian, gazed at each other with a variety of energy, and the Pandemonium Trial system revealed its unique presence and pressed down the soul of the sun.

The pressure that makes it difficult for mortals to remain sane.

In it, the sun rolled its eyes.

‘Looking at the circumstances going back, Dantalian wants me to give false testimony.’

Telling the truth here.

So, if you tell the story you had with Dantalian before entering the 28th floor, the trial will of course be lost.

Since it is a calculation that even a child could easily do, it is clear that Taeyang must do false testimony.

“Write.”

The sun brushed her lips with her tongue.

Dantalian is a demon king who is so capable that even those watching from the same side give goosebumps.

And he had already talked about the possibility of a trial happening.

I didn’t have time to talk about the solution.

‘What if I didn’t tell you?’

Although Dantalian expected this situation, he did not bother to mention it.

This means that the sun judged that it could solve it by itself.

If it was another existence, I would have thought that I would have made a mistake, but it was unlikely that Dantalian, a being who strives for perfection, would have made such a mistake.

‘It sounds like there is a solution.’

Taeyang stood in the center of the courtroom and pondered over and over again.

‘They said that the nature of the court’s truth coercion varies in destructive power in proportion to the case.’

Because the ratio of destructive power is so great, it is said that it is a system that if you are a transcendental person, the moment you tell a lie, you will be hit so hard that you cannot recover.

However, if you think on the contrary, it was also a story that the destructive power is reduced to a large extent for the sun, whose soul is far inferior to the transcendent.

After accumulating more than 300 achievements and receiving part of the divinity from Dantalian, the sun can be seen as closer to a transcendent than other mortals, but of course it does not reach the level of a transcendent.

What if the sun with a human soul uses demon lord-level mind defense magic?

‘There is a possibility.’

Authority is a skill derived from the status of a sponsored demon king.

In other words, it produces performance regardless of the player’s rank.

It is the conclusion that if you block the mace proportional to the sun’s power with the power of the devil, you can withstand it.

And the sun had the power of a demon king to block the mace.

The sun bit his lip.

Goosebumps ran up his spine.

When the sun looked back at Dantalian once again, Dantalian smiled meaningfully.

[Shinryonghwa (神龍化)]

[Player Yoon Taeyang’s blood gains the abilities of the demon king Balrog.]

At the same time, a buzzing sound came from the jury.

“Balak’s energy?”

“that’s right! that guy! He said he was the player who won a one-on-one sparring with Ballack.”

“what? Balak was defeated by a mortal? And not to orcs, but to humans?”

“I did not know? It was quite famous.”

“her. Somehow, it was said that he brought a mortal to the Pandemonium Trial.”

The demon lords brought by Barbatos were quite surprised.

Sitri crossed her arms and looked down at the sun.

“Huh, that’s the player who was chosen by Dantalian.”

Yoon Taeyang opened his mouth.

“I will testify.”

“… … .”

The jurors fell silent for a moment.

“That Yoon Taeyang.”

pounding.

The two dragon hearts in the heart of the sun began to pulsate violently.

“Before entering the 28th floor of Purkas, I contacted the ‘Oracle’ sent by the Demon King Dantalian.”

Kwalung.

At the same time as they concluded their words, the lightning of ‘Forcing the Truth’ struck the sun.

“It is true.”

Baal looked down at the sun, narrowing his eyes.

The sun, struck by lightning, had not a single strand of hair damaged and its eyes were straight.

No wonder.

In the first place, the lightning strikes not the body of the sun, but the soul spirit.

The part to focus on is the pupil.

It didn’t shake at all.

It would be impossible if you were struck by lightning.

But what Baal was observing was something else.

That which boils within the sun.

“That… … .”

Barbatos opened his mouth.

“Since the witness admitted contact with Dantalian… … .”

“no.”

The sun cut off Barbatos.

“Dantalian is the power of Purkas in the oracle. We never talked about the demon king’s dimensional invasion. In other words, Purkas drove Dantalian out based on unreasonable grounds.”

The words of the sun that entered after interrupting Barbatos.

At the same time, the Court’s ‘forced truth’ trait once again struck lightning.

flash

With the flickering light in front of his eyes, the sun gnashed his teeth.

dragon blood.

Dragon blood.

In fact, it is said to be the most valuable body part of the dragon’s body, along with the heart, recognized by the wizard Salomon, who has resided in the dimension where the dragon’s data can be obtained.

‘I don’t know if it’s right to describe this as a body part.’

Salomon said in the past that he had discovered a new property of dragon blood.

When you concentrate more than a certain amount of mana in your blood, it vaporizes and appears as a ‘mental system magic absolute resistance’ characteristic.

Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Blood rushed through his veins and he felt indescribable pain.

The pain that started in the head of the heart quickly spread throughout the upper body and covered the lower body.

My teeth gnashed without my knowledge, and at the same time, a pure white light covered the sun.

The lightning, involving 72 demon kings, groped his body to injure the soul of the sun who told lies.

about 3 seconds.

An obviously long time different from the one before.

The destructive power, weakened by the sun’s blow, could not penetrate Balak’s immune system.

‘Are you saying I’ve seen it this far?’

Creepy goose bumps ran up my spine.

Aside from the pain, it felt like a chill in one side of my chest.

Before entering the 28th floor, the translucent Dantalian contacted the sun through the oracle, Dantalian had already seen this situation.

Dantalian drew a picture called ‘Pandemonium Trial’ using the characteristics of dragon blood that the sun could not find any use for, the personality of Purkas, and the containment of Barbatos.

After drawing a perfect sketch of victory, he even tested the sun once again by entrusting the final completion of the drawing to the sun’s fingertips.

In other words, I played with it perfectly.

Sun and Furkas Barbatos.

Furthermore, it is all of the ten demon kings including Baal and Agares who participated in the trial in the demon realm.

But is this really the end?

Didn’t you think about the number of cases in which the sun failed?

Did Dantalian see the future as far as the Pandemonium Trial?

If not.

‘How far did you look?’

The sun turned and looked at Dantalian.

The demon king who connected the earth to the abyss called the dimensional labyrinth.

I’m on the same boat now, but someday I’ll have to break it down.

Dantalian.

Beyond the white flickering lightning, Dantalian was also smiling white.
