I Became the Demon King of Lust

As the forehead of the young man with the pompadour smashed into the water barrier, there was a bright flash of light that came from it.

This was the release of all the energy that had been gathered in his head.

But…the young man with the pompadour found that he wasn't able to move forward at all.

The water barrier in front of him…even though it was made of water, it was like he was slamming his head into a wall of steel. He couldn't push through no matter how hard he tried. discover m,v,l,e,m,p,y,r novels

The Lizardman King just calmly stood there, looking right into the eyes of the young man with the pompadour.

As they met gazes, the young man with the pompadour couldn't help being taken aback.

That was because…it seemed like the Lizardman King was looking at him with disdain. It was as if the Lizardman King was wondering if that was all the power that he had, as if the Lizardman King was disappointed with his powers.

The young man with the pompadour wanted to feel angry, but he couldn't.

That was because it was true that he was weak compared to the Lizardman King.

He couldn't even break through the barrier of this Lizardman King after all.

After a moment of equilibrium, the Lizardman King looked like it had had enough of this.

With a single push of its trident, the water barrier suddenly pushed forward as well.

The momentum of the young man with the pompadour was broken and he was sent flying back.

As he flew backwards, he slammed into the magical girl who had just stood up to see him flying at her. The two of them flew through the air, but the young man with the pompadour used the last bit of strength that he had to hold her.

Then he twisted his body so that he would take the impact instead of her.

The two of them kept flying through the air until they were slammed into the wall of the throne room.

As they did, they couldn't help spitting out a mouthful of blood.

The cracks that formed on the wall showed just how much force they had been thrown at the wall with.

The young man with the shield deeply knitted his brows when he saw this and…he turned to run without any hesitation.

He was going to abandon these people he had been working with and he didn't feel any regret about it.

That was just the kind of person he was.

But the Lizardman King didn't bother with the two that it threw at the wall.

Instead, the Lizardman King turned to look at the young man with the shield.

The young man with the shield felt this gaze fall onto him and he revealed an ugly expression.

He didn't hesitate to run, but while he was running, he shouted out, "You freak lizard, why are you coming after me? Go and eat those two, they're a free meal!"

But the Lizardman King didn't react at all to these words from the young man with the shield.

Instead, the Lizardman King just calmly raised its trident before spinning it in its hands.

As this trident spun in the air, there was water that gathered at the feet of the Lizardman King.

The water increased more and more until there was a large pool that was gathered there around the Lizardman King.

However, it didn't stop at just a pool.

There was more and more water that gathered until tentacles of water formed around the Lizardman King.

These were swirling tentacles of water that looked like they could pierce through anything.

This…was very dangerous.

The young man with the shield knew that he wouldn't be able to take a single hit from the water tentacles, but at the same time, he knew that running away now would just be futile.

Unless he was able to distract the Lizardman King, he wouldn't be able to run away.

So he threw the rocks that he had been holding in his hand behind him.

As he did, these rocks suddenly became bigger and bigger until they were boulders just like before.

However, these rocks hadn't been thrown at the Lizardman King.

Instead, it had been aimed at the lizardmen guards around the Lizardman King.

The Lizardman King knitted his brows when he saw this before flicking the trident in his hand.

When he did, the water tentacles around him suddenly stabbed out.

They were aimed at the rocks flying at the lizardmen guards, stabbing them in the center and shattering them to pieces.

When these rocks shattered to pieces, the shattered pieces suddenly started to grow.

These shattered pieces grew to the same size as the boulders that they had come from and rained down on the lizardmen.

Seeing this out of the corner of his eye, the young man with the shield gave a smirk as he said, "Take this you stupid lizards!"

He could have done this earlier, but he had saved it as a trump card.

The Lizardman King knitted his brows again, but the tentacles of water stabbed out again at these rocks and shattered them to pieces once more. But this time, the spin of the tentacles sent the scattered pieces in different directions so they weren't falling towards them.

Even if the young man with the shield enlarged them again, they wouldn't bother them.

But the young man with the shield revealed a smug smile again.

This stupid lizard is doing exactly what I want it to do!

Some of the shattered rocks suddenly enlarged to normal sized rocks and smashed into each other.

After smashing into each other, they shattered apart and created rock dust that filled the air.

This rock dust filled the throne room, creating a smokescreen that blocked off the young man with the shield.

With a smile, he started running for the entrance of this throne room.

This was his real plan all along!

He would use those two as bait and use this smokescreen to escape!

As long as he escaped, nothing else mattered!

And it didn't take long for the young man with the shield to reach the door under this smokescreen.

But it was just too bad that a water tentacle suddenly appeared and stabbed him through the chest.
