Chapter 566. Rising Star, Falling Force (3)
Jerebuck.
The one who appeared among the angels was a high-ranking demon with long horns.
At least a division commander or an aristocratic level equivalent to a count.
He said he had to come right away, so I asked what was going on.
To think that Gan was a demon who came out of the boat.
“Where do you dare to come here… to put your filthy body in?”
The angels’ eyebrows curled in reverse.
No matter how high-ranking the demons are, there is only one opponent.
I couldn’t deal with this many angels.
At the thought of splitting the body in half with a single sword and annihilating it, the divine power fluctuated violently.
But just then
“Whoops. Everyone just don’t look at me so hatefully. I didn’t come naked, but I brought a great story in my own way.”
The demon raised both hands up and smiled brightly.
“The only thing I can talk about with you is with a knife.”
Tamd’el held the burning spear high.
[The ‘Window of Destruction’ opens!]
[Attack power against demons increases by 30%!]
Awesome!
Hot flames spread out in all directions.
“Even if I’ve been representing Diablo-sama?”
“…!?”
At the demon’s words, Tamd-El’s movements stopped.
If it’s Diablo…
it’s the demon king who decided to attack from Beriel’s side.
Come to think of it.
The pattern on the demon’s shoulder symbolized Diablo.
It is said that he is undoubtedly one of his blood relatives.
Tamdel looked at Uriel.
How on earth did the Diablo side know in advance that they would be attacked?
Even knowing that fact, why did you send an envoy instead of launching an ambush or making preparations?
Whatever it was, there were good reasons not to attack right now.
“…Tell me.”
Uriel nodded towards the demon.
“My name is Azazel. One of the Demons who serve Diablo. The reason I came here is to suggest that instead of holding hands with Beriel, we should join hands.”
I knew it.
The ominous predictions came true.
“Damn it. Information leaked. Did Olympus or Cheonsei notice it? Then did I tell you this?”
“yes. you’re right. They contacted us from there. And, of course, as you know, it would be much better for you to stay with us now that things have turned out this way.”
It’s a natural story.
If there is only one purpose. Of course, wouldn’t it be advantageous to hit the naive side who knows nothing?
Besides, if you join hands with Diablo, you don’t have to pretend to Cheonsei and Olympus.
It was also a bonus to be able to give a shot to the late Inmul Corporation, who had been hated from the beginning.
“…”
Uriel dropped the mace he was holding onto the floor.
It was obvious that I didn’t have to compare it on the scale.
Because it’s already tilted completely to one side.
“I hit Beriel’s side.”
That’s the surest way.
“You made a wise decision. Then I will guide you on the way to his manor.”
Azazel bowed deeply.
at the same time.
Whoops!
[The base ‘Pandemonium”s special field skill, ‘Trouble of Chaos’ is canceled.]
The side of the angels began to crumble.
“…!?”
It was a barrier so perfect that even Uriel wouldn’t notice.
What appeared was a large army of demons numbering in the tens of thousands.
All of them were elite members belonging to Diablo.
“bouncer. Were you going to attack us right away if we refused?”
“It was just in case insurance. And at this level, wouldn’t Uriel-sama think it’s worth joining hands with us?”
Azazel shrugged.
“You keep spouting arrogant words. But that is not wrong either.”
With that, the temporary alliance between the demon realm and Eden was concluded.
***
The occupants of the 34th floor were smashed and Athena managed to get out of the house.
Over 90% of the forces that initially tried to stop the Titans and the Dead Man Corporation were lost.
Among the rest of the residents, only the warchief of Hodo and the orcs who followed him were the only surviving mid-bosses.
“It’s going smoothly.”
Cronus smiled contentedly.
Sooner or later you will see where Zeus is.
The conquest of Olympus, which he had dreamed of, was not far off.
Jinhyuk also optimistically judged the situation.
As long as all the cards of conversion prepared by the opponent were destroyed, there were no variables left to reverse the situation.
‘The biggest thing was protecting Alice and blocking the 34th floor.’
To be honest, when the contract was terminated, the conversation was chilly.
Because it was stabbing the most painful part of this side.
Still, it perfectly passed all the hurdles.
Hercules, the last variable, was doing his best to stop Thor and Northern Europe.
Now all he had to do was focus on the final battle with Zeus and the rest of the gods.
however.
thump!
A sharp pain surged through his right collarbone.
“This is…”
Jinhyuk’s eyes narrowed.
Because I knew what pain meant.
It’s a tattoo that Beriel whined about asking to be her black apostle, so he got it as a token of an alliance instead.
The tattoos, which were a combination of Makai language and rune language, were supposed to react only when a fatal danger occurred to each other.
In an instant, several cases came to mind.
The worst of them hit me in the back of the head.
Could it be that
Olympus and Cheonsei noticed it?
Other than that it makes no sense.
He must have noticed why Uriel was wasting time.
[The barrier ‘Traceer’s Ring’ is activated!]
[The skill ‘Chaser’s Desire’ is activated!]
I had placed the tracking magic on Uriel’s side just in case.
Magical power fluctuated, and the blue powder formed letters and numbers.
[The object’s current position is 212 36 369 in Pandemonium coordinates.]
Damn it.
Jinhyuk’s expression crumpled.
It was because those coordinates were in the middle of Beriel’s territory.
***
Unexpected situations in wars will continue to explode.
The difference between a good commander and a bad commander is how quickly the variables that occur. And how to deal with it effectively.
[Video connection has been established.]
Kukukuku kwaaang!
“Aaaagh!”
“Quaaaaagh!”
“Koooooo!”
Screams echoed here and there and smoky flames.
It seems that the bloody smell is transmitted even beyond the video.
In Beriel’s territory, troops and troops beyond imagination were engaged in an all-out war.
“You contacted me at the wrong time. When I asked him to come play, he didn’t even show his nose. Are you going to come and say hello to the New Year?”
I saw a haggard-looking Beriel.
His condition seemed serious, as if he had been hit by divine power.
Even with the demon king’s regenerative ability, he suffered a wound that was difficult to handle.
“…sorry.”
I was going to warn you, but it was too late.
The allied forces took advantage of surprise first.
And the cost was irreparably painful.
“Can you hold on?”
Jinhyeok opened his mouth heavily.
“It won’t be easy. I got hit too hard in the first surprise attack. In a short period of time, the territory has grown too large, and I am not familiar with it, and it seems that there is a Diablo side inside. More than anything else, the failure was not expecting the angels to come.”
Even at this moment, Uriel’s angels swept over the walls.
Diablo’s flagship, Hell Wolf, was also extremely demanding.
I have to go help.
However, if you leave your seat at this time, you will give Olympus time to reorganize.
They must have known that and were aiming for Beriel.
Because I knew I wouldn’t give up easily.
In the end, it becomes a story that we need to divide support appropriately.
On a scale large enough to protect Beriel’s territory while maintaining enough power to wage war against Olympus.
‘If I make a mistake, I could lose both sides.’
Jinhyuk swallowed dry saliva.
Grains in a rapidly falling hourglass.
Now you have to make a decision.
***
[Uriel Lv??? Activates ‘Holy Smite’!]
Uhhhh… Kuckuckuckuckuck!
The indescribable light on the mace exploded toward a point.
From the sky…
…to the ground.
Kwa Kwa Kwa Aang!
The storm turned everything to dust.
Power beyond imagination.
A crater that looked like a meteorite had fallen in the place where the mace had hit.
“You are hot too. This is why everyone seems to be at a distance of divine power and divine power. It’s to the point where I even think that it wouldn’t be bad if I had at least one religion.”
Azazel clapped.
“Don’t kill me. Because that’s more annoying. More than that, where the hell is Beriel?”
The fight will end only when the enemy’s head is cut off.
But for some reason, Beriel was nowhere to be seen.
After fighting once when they first invaded the territory, they completely shunned and disappeared.
Due to his personality, there is no way he just throws away his subordinates as consumables.
that it is
‘Are they waiting for support?’
Beriel and Jinhyeok are in an alliance, so maybe they are pinning their hopes on that part.
“I know what you’re worried about, but it won’t happen. Kang Jin-hyeok will not be able to step out of the current war against Olympus. We were aware of all of that, so we can say that this operation is perfect.”
Even if the guys under him are strong, it’s not enough to turn the situation around.
The only threat is Elise…
I heard that she suffered major injuries in Hyundai and is unable to move, at least for the time being.
It means there is nothing left to fear.
But at that very moment.
Whoops!
A red gate appeared in the middle of Beriel’s territory.
Unusual magic power swirled around.
“Keuuugh…”
“There…!”
“Look up there!”
Beriel’s soldiers, who were being pushed back, raised their heads.
Beriel.
This is the moment when the Demon King, who is in charge of one axis of the Demon Realm, is manifested.
“The rampage ends here.”
Beriel looked down with an arrogant expression.
“You ran away and finally came out.”
“This time, I will definitely crush your head.”
Azazel and Uriel spewed speculation.
The long-awaited prey appeared.
However, the smiles of the angels and demons did not last long.
“You…”
“How…”
It was because the person who appeared next to Beriel was the type to catch her completely off guard.
Alice von Ataraxia.
Jinjo, who must have exhausted all of his mana and was recovering, was with him.
It is incomprehensible.
The scars and trauma Ares left behind were the kind that couldn’t be resolved in such a short period of time.
However, there was one fact that the two did not know.
The fact that one of Jinhyeok’s newly copied abilities is the ability to manipulate the status window.
“Hey, horned demon king. The cost of moving luggage is expensive. Do you know?”
“Hmm. Can we provide all the desserts that exist in Pandemonium by type? Coincidentally, our cook is one of the best friends in the entire tower.”
Beriel shrugged.
“Puhahaha! I’m thinking of conciliating the head of Ataraxia with just that…”
“I allow it.”
Alice nodded her head in satisfaction.
