Why I Quit Being the Demon King

Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 301

68. Operating the Tower of Babel (1)

“Let me ask you again. Are you saying that it is impossible to reinstate them even with Queen April’s guarantee?”

“It means there is a need for procedures. First, please hand over the two new recruits, the black hero Zeke and the witch Signy. A heretic magistrate will conduct a hearing until the conclusion is sufficient. If there are no charges after that,

the reinstatement process will naturally begin.”

LeSulet smiled.

“Once we enter the lottery process, we will try to process the document process as quickly as possible out of respect for His Majesty.”

“I’m really thankful for that.”

“Seonghwangcheong is always grateful for Your Majesty’s kindness. Then, I understand that Zeke and Miss Signy will be guided by our Seonghwangcheong. “I think they will quietly chase after us because of the respect of their younger brother, who is the chief secretary.”

“It’s not possible. Zeke and Signy are now guests of the Verde royal family.”

“No matter how royal the royal family is, they cannot protect a criminal wanted by the Imperial Palace.”

“Your Majesty the Cardinal. It seems you have a grudge against our Verde royal family. “If you are thinking of going to war, our royal family will not avoid it.”

Le Sulet laughed awkwardly.

“How can you say that? Although Seonghwangcheong is within the Kingdom of Verde, it is maintained by divine laws that are different from those of the human kingdom. “For the royal family to declare war on the Holy Emperor

is the same as going to war with all three continents of Hor who follow God.”

“If we’re going to fight, let’s fight.”

At April’s sharp words, Cardinal Le Chilé fiddled with his cane.

They said this woman was out of her mind, and it seemed like she really was.

I couldn’t think of it as a normal human way of thinking to be willing to go to war with the Holy Emperor.

However, if you step down, you will lose face. Moreover

, it would be a bad precedent for

the Seonghwangcheong to submit to the power of the royal family .

“If that is the case, we will all have no choice but to become martyrs. But please do not underestimate the power of the Zodiac Knights.”

“great. Please return to Seonghwangcheong. “The fastest messenger will follow with the document declaring war.”

“Your Majesty the Queen! “If it’s a joke, it’s too bad.”

“Do you think I would make a joke like this against Seonghwangcheong?”

Le Schillet’s face turned red. I stopped by with

a light heart to visit Gukseo,

but what on earth is going on?

However, it was not possible to return to Seonghwangcheong and report that a war was going on with the Verde royal family.

How can we put this crazy talk to rest?

Why did the queen suddenly start going on a rampage?

Le Schillet was startled while retrieving the moves he had made.

The man was so calm that I forgot his presence for a moment.

Zeke van Jade.

He is a warrior who once defeated the Demon King.

How much power can even a Zodiac Knight exert in front of him?

The queen believes in his power and indulges herself like this.

I got it wrong from the beginning.

I never thought she would risk dismissal and insist on Zeke’s reinstatement.

“your majesty.”

“Please go back. Or shall we replace the declaration of

war by cutting off your head and sending it to the Imperial Palace ?”

“Please take away your anger. “Why are you tormenting this old priest?”

“Are you asking because you don’t know?”

“Is it because of that woman from the Holly Spindle family?”

“Did you come out like this knowingly?”

“that!”

“There are also rumors that Joo Ki-gyeong instigated it.”

“It can’t be like that, can it? I too was deceived. “If I had known that she was such an unclean woman… I would never have gotten close to her in the first place

!”

“I still remember the incident that disgraced the Verdean royal family and tarnished my husband’s honor.”

“This old man formally apologizes once again.”

“Then I will ask again. “When will a lottery ticket be possible for Zeke and Signy to be pardoned?”

LeSulet raised his eyes.

Will you submit and move on to the next one? Or…

no, there is no choice.

If you are planning to end your life as a cardinal,

it is right to bow your head at this point.

But he had no intention of doing so.

He is destined to become Pope.

The Pope bows to no one except God.

“Send an envoy, Your Majesty. I will discuss this matter with His Holiness the Hon. “If we have to go to war, we have to do it.”

“That is a very wise decision. Please go. “I will not see you off.”

Le Sulet stood up. He bowed his head and said hello to the queen and

was about to leave the guesthouse.

But there was a man standing blocking the door.

Since when was he there?

Even Zeke noticed his presence quite late.

A silver halo flowed down to the floor behind his back.

Just like wings.

Zeke stood up and bowed his head.

“Scatiel.”

He was none other than Deus’ butler Skatul

. Now that she has taken out her angel wings, it would be more accurate to call her Scottiel.

People were startled by the angel’s descent.

The cardinal took a step back and hunched over.

Queen April also showed courtesy to greet the messenger of God.

“After only 12 years of peace with the demons, the power within the castle is already preparing for war.”

Both the queen and the cardinal looked embarrassed at the angel’s lamented words

.

Scatiel spoke to them again.

“Michael, whom I serve, said. The Black Hero and the Witch no longer have anything to do with the Demon King, so there should be no more problems in the Holy Hwangcheong Office. Kill the fattest calf for the prodigal son who has returned. “Make your clothes with the most expensive silk.”

Cardinal Le Sulet bowed his head at Scottiel’s words.

“Everything will happen as God says.”

He looked polite, but

was not in a good mood.

The Verde royal family took the fruit of Zeke’s lottery, and he ended up with only a difficult relationship with the royal family.

I regretted that I would have listened to the queen, but it was already too late.

Who could have imagined that an angel would descend in person?

Scottiel left the two powerful men behind and approached Zeke.

“Follow me for a moment.”

“Yes, Master Scottiel.”

Scatiel left the palace and soared high into the sky.

I opened my wings wide above the clouds. And I met Zeke there. The first reaction was a long sigh.

“What happened while I was away?”

Zeke scratched his head because it was awkward.

“If I were to express my true feelings, I would like to at least applaud that it went well. “I was worried that hanging out with the devil would turn you into a devil too.”

“Scatiel…

“Call me Scatul. Because my feelings right now are close to that. So

you completely washed your hands? “What about that one?”

“I think it would be right to answer no to that question.”

“Are you saying we will meet again?”

“yes.”

“Didn’t you almost kill your brother?”

“You didn’t kill him.”

“Come to your senses. “What do you expect from demons?”

“Rather than that, isn’t Mr. Skatul now Deus’s butler?”

“Well… as long as Michael’s orders don’t change, you

have to stay there.”

“Are you coming back from the beach?”

“yes. I flew here under orders from Michael. “It’s crazy because so many things are happening at the same time.”

“What else is going on?”

“A little towards the fairies.”

“Surely something is wrong with you, Raziel?”

“…How did you know?”

” also.”

“Something. “Am I the only one who didn’t know?”

“I felt a hint of a fallen angel.”

“Last time I went?”

“yes.”

Scatul turned his gaze slightly to the side.

He seemed a little offended that he didn’t know what Zeke had noticed.

“The Inquisitors moved to prevent the corruption.”

“You mean Gabriel?”

” that’s right.”

“We tried to stop it until he came forward, but we ultimately failed.”

“It’s unfortunate.”

“Unhappiness? “Do you really think so?”

“What do you mean?”

“Could this have happened by chance? No, that can’t be possible. “This is what Deus did.”

“Deus corrupted Raziel?”

” that’s right.”

“I think it’s a bit far-fetched.”

“In this world, if there is order, there is also randomness.”

“If it’s random…

“Couldn’t it have been stimulated by Ma Ying Qi? Otherwise, why would fallen angels appear wherever he goes ?”

Raguel and Raziel.

Both fallen angels had contact with Deus.

In Raguel’s case, the line was unclear as to whether he encountered the corrupted woman or became corrupted because Deus broke the seal.

“But if it’s random, you can’t blame Deus.”

“Even if he quits being the Demon Lord, it doesn’t change the fact that he is a dangerous being. “You too can become corrupted.”

“Thank you for your concern. But did Michael really send Mr. Scatul for me?”

“Half and half. “First of all, you are a person of interest.”

“Haha sorry.”

“This is no laughing matter. “It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a human as strong as an archangel.”

“It’s been a while…

“Don’t you already know?”

“You mean Nezar?”

“I am very worried, Michael, that you too will fall like that. He has

high expectations for today’s humanity.”

“What role did you play, Michael?”

“You are the guardian of the continent Jose.”

“ah! So…

“Then I plan to return to my work this way. Now go back to your life as a warrior.”

“Are you going to Michael?”

“no. “I must continue to monitor the troublesome people.”

“You must be having a hard time.”

“Who isn’t?”

Scatul smiled awkwardly and

waved at Zeke.

His appearance instantly disappeared beyond the horizon.

“I may have already… fallen. “I feel like the fights in the human world are pointless.”

Shaking his head, Zeke landed on the ground again.

“It’s good to have power.”

Sadimus stood leaning crookedly and said something.

Boxes were piled up in the main lobby of the White Magpie Hall.

From a so-and-so baron in a small town to a high priest in the Holy Imperial Palace.

The box with numerous people’s names written on it was none other than Zeke’s lottery congratulatory gift.

Regin still had the name of Holy Bitch, but Zeke and Signy were no longer dark warriors and witches.

It was natural that the attention of Verde society was focused on Zeke, who had regained the name of The Ender.

There was even a move in Seonghwangcheong to appoint Zeke as a Zodiac Knight.

Signi picked up a dress and placed it on Lakhe’s chest.

“Sister Lakhe wears this.”

“I am… “I can make clothes.”

“But sometimes things like this are good.”

” is it?”

She always had her bangs down like a weeping willow.

Meanwhile, I peeked at Zeke.

“Zeke… how are you?”

“Lake, you are always beautiful.”

“lie. “I’m not that pretty.”

“There are no fixed standards for beauty.”

“That’s just Zeke’s thoughts.” Regin, who was looking at the gifts, smiled.

“Your popularity is amazing. I think it’s even more popular than when your Majesty announced me as your husband.”

“Is that possible?”
