Why I Quit Being the Demon King

Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 351

80. Reaching the final battlefield (1)

“Prayer? To whom? For whom. I lost all seven hearts. There is no way to survive now. “Through repeated modifications, the cells rarely die, so I haven’t lost consciousness until now.”

“Prayers are offered to God.”

“Didn’t you say there is no God?”

“Maybe so.”

“Is it okay for a hero to deny God

?”

“Because that’s not important. “Whether there is a God or not, I will live by His words.”

“What a contradiction.”

“Life is always like that. When has it ever not been a contradiction?”

“If there is no God, what can you achieve by praying?”

“Have you tried it?”

“You mean prayer?”

“okay.”

“Religion is nothing more than a paranoia. At least that’s what everyone thought in my day.

God and religion were created because weak humans felt fear of nature that they could not understand and needed a place to rely on. “It was the greed of the priests that preserved the relics of that primitive era for thousands of years.”

“It’s similar to now.”

“Humans have been at a standstill for tens of thousands of years.”

“Tabora…. Nezar. Pray. “If there’s something you lack, it’s probably it.”

“Do you mean the foolishness of relying on religion?”

“modesty. “The humility of knowing that beyond what I know, there are definitely

things I cannot understand .”

“Isn’t that what God is like? I pray because there are things I don’t know. Of course, it’s a selfish prayer for myself. Still, he doesn’t get angry. Rather than punishing me for praying for myself, he just laughed it off. Because he is infinitely merciful.”

“They don’t exist, so they won’t punish you.”

“Don’t you like that? Because there are many things in the world that have no substance but bother humans. There are so many people who ruin their lives because they suffer from things like greed and arrogance .

On the other hand, there may be no substance, but there is also a God who makes humans comfortable.”

“Do you want to say that I am dying because I was arrogant?”

“That’s how I feel. If there is anyone in the world who has come closest to God, it must be you. “If I had been a little more humble, wouldn’t a completely different future have been waiting for me?”

Nezar laughed bitterly.

“This is the most unpleasant thing I’ve ever heard in my life. “ Rather spit and swear

.”

He closed his eyes.

It seemed that everyone was finally ready to face the end.

With that, he slowly opened his mouth.

“You’d better pay attention to Migo.”

“Migo?”

“The butler Croche sent to that side… when I think about it now, it wasn’t something I created.”

“What do you mean?”

“well. It’s a sudden thought. Croche

… who is that?”

Zeke frowned.

Since it was Migo’s job, I couldn’t help but be cautious.

Nezar sang a low melody.

“Ochudo has lost track of time and has now stopped moving. Woomiin, Woomiin…. What should I do now?”

Zeke didn’t know what the song meant.

I just vaguely thought it might be a popular song from the Golden Age.

Zeke raised his eyes and saw Nezar’s throne

.

I saw four angels frozen like stone statues.

It seemed that he had already become corrupted and had lost all his strength. The wings bent and wrapped around them like restraints.

Zeke immediately decided to go to the demon world where Migo was.

The place he was currently in was the Earth’s outer atmosphere, and at his speed, he could return as fast as the warp gate.

The moment Zeke left Nezhar’s throne, white wings

blocked his path.

“Mr. Scatul. No, it should be called Scottiel.”

“No, skatul is enough. What kind of angel’s name is someone like me who couldn’t protect my master?

“I’m exhausted.”

“It looks like Nezar is dead after all.”

“yes. “It’s a bit… sad.”

“He is a ghost. A long time ago, during the Age of Gold, mankind failed and became extinct. One of them just happened to survive. But he gained nothing from failure. “The moment we followed the past,

failure was a foregone conclusion.”

“What on earth is evolution?”

“It is nothing in itself. “It simply refers to a series of processes in which something more suitable for the environment survives.”

“It means that those who survive are strong.”

“It’s pretty close to the answer. Rather, Zeke. “The reason I stopped you was because of Hamiel’s orders.”

“Hamiel? Before that, there’s a place I need to go to now…

“To Migo, right?”

” yes.”

“There is a team that has already started there.”

“ah! Deus went there. In that case, we need to hurry even more.”

“This fight has expanded into a war between angels and fallen angels. “Lucifer is blatantly showing off his power.”

“Apart from humans.”

“How did things end up like this? Lucifer must be crazy. In the meantime, even the two Old Testament angels Zafkiel and Zadkiel

were stained with madness.”

“…With this, all twelve archangels are involved in this fight.”

“Kamael is currently guarding Raguel and Raziel, and Hamiel has completed preparations to seal the four New Testament archangels.”

Zeke raised his eyes.

The lights in the sky were not stars, but a legion of angels led by Hamiel.

“Are you telling me to deal with the two archangels Zafkiel and Zadkiel?”

“That’s right.”

“The first thing that comes to mind when you hear it is that it’s impossible?”

Scatul smiled slightly.

“If it’s a joke, there’s a good chance you’ll win. Zafkiel is the angel of the sea. Zadkiel is the angel of the earth. The name comes from the myth that God created the land and the sea following light and darkness. “They are also archangels who manage plants and animals on Earth, excluding intelligent beings such as humans and dwarfs.” “

It seems

that Zadkiel rules over those who live on land, and Zafkiel governs those who live in the water .”

“Isn’t it easy to understand?”

“I see. “How can I help you?”

“First, let Hamiel go with you.”

” ancient.”

Hamiel was now leading numerous angelic armies.

In it, it was not just the Tifaret subordinate angels under her command.

“I think I would have been of help to you at this level.”

She said, gesturing towards the numerous angels scattered like stardust.

“Immediately after hearing the news that the enemy named Lucifer had risen to the fore and that the four great angels had fallen, I absorbed the angelic forces under the four great angels of the New Testament.”

” ah!”

“Of course, there was help from Kamael. It was also helpful to have Raziel’s power of attorney. “Rachiel can’t use any strength to fight corruption right now, but it

seems like she still has the power to at least distinguish which is right.”

“You are a strong person.”

“The archangels of the Old Testament fought against countless corruptions over countless ages. Even though I am in the last place, I cannot tarnish the reputation of my predecessors.”

Hamiel said, pointing in all directions.

“The lower angels of the Horde, the lower angels of Netark, the lower angels of Iesod, the lower angels of Malkuth. Although he was subdued by the archangels of the New Testament and imprisoned, it

did not take much effort to save them. Some were corrupted, but most responded to my summons. Scottiel also played a big role there.”

“I’m embarrassed.”

Scatul bowed and Hamiel continued speaking while looking at Zeke.

“In the case of Zafkiel and Zadkiel, our side actually beat the player. Now, the two have been surrounded by left angels and have become isolated. However, the power of the left angels cannot subdue the archangels. Zeke Pan Jade Ingan warrior. I will give you a sacred mission .

Help the subordinate angels of Binah and the subordinate angels of Kesed to subdue the two archangels.”

“I don’t know if it’s possible with my abilities.”

“I will equip you with the armor and shield of an archangel. “I already have the divine sword Asmo Deus, so it will be a great help.”

After Hamiel finished speaking, he slightly covered his mouth and spoke.

“Honestly, I have no place to ask for help but you. I felt like I would be

extremely rude to my two seniors if I left it to Deus .

“I can’t deny that.”

“If you’re having a hard time, just take some time. “Once we finish cleaning up this place, Kamael and I will rush over right away.”

“All right.”

Hamiel immediately opened the golden gate in front of him.

Zeke bowed his head to Hamiel and crossed the gate with Skatul.

The place we arrived at was the frozen land at the South Pole of the human planet Earth.

Hundreds of lower angels and tens of thousands of lower

angels formed a formation according to the rules of magic. A mighty force pressed down on the two archangels.

However, the difference between the ranks of a left angel and an archangel was too great.

The archangels, who were bound by chains made by angels, were entirely covered with black feathers. Just by looking at them, you could tell that they were completely corrupted.

“Mr. Scatul.”

” yes.”

“Fallen angels are strong.”

“If you look at power alone, it is definitely true

. “All taboos and restrictions have been thrown away.”

“That’s why I’m weak.”

“It looks like you read the odds.”

Zeke laughed.

“Deus always talked about it. They say they are weak because they are forced to wear a human mask. At first I didn’t understand what that meant. “Because I’m human.”

“You can’t take off your humanity with just your mindset.”

“Humans cannot fight dragons. You can’t become stronger than a giant. As humans

, we are so weak that we cannot even compete with monsters like lions and elephants. But the spirit can escape humanity.”

“Because thoughts are free.”

“It’s just as you said, Mr. Scatul. freedom. There is a really deep meaning hidden in those words. Deus-sama also eventually quit being the Demon King because of freedom.”

“In his case, I think he just didn’t think anything of it.”

“You are prejudiced.”

“What does that have to do with now anyway?”

“Freedom of the soul. It has to be like this because we are human. That prohibition even binds the soul. “I think that made me weak.”

“Obtaining freedom…

“Ultra speed is the limit speed that humans can achieve. “Isn’t it the freedom of the soul that transcends that?”

“Super speed…

“The two archangels will not be able to see me.”

“It’s a tarantella of extreme speed.” Zeke smiled. And then he disappeared.

Skarthul could no longer see him.

A human warrior whose trajectory cannot be traced even by angels.

Scatul burst out laughing as he saw Zeke’s vision.

“I guess being the Demon King is a more leisurely position than I thought.”

He sat leaning on his mother’s lap and made a fuss.

Is there ever a happier time in the world than this moment?

“You’re not being lazy, are you?”

“Maybe so. “It’s because of Mom.”

“The lazy king is now making excuses for his mother.”

“But mom’s knees are so warm. “I don’t want to leave.”

“You look like a kitten.”

“mom mom. How long are you going to stay together this time?”

“Well, Deus and Zeke will stay until you come back, right?”

“Where are you going together?”

“Where… is it?”

A shadow appeared on SIGNI’s expression.

It won’t be easy.

The image of the fallen Deus came to mind.

In fact, the corruption itself was a kind of deception. It was a ploy to blind Lucifer and get his Shinigami numbers back.

As if to show off, Deus jumped over Lucifer’s trap and retrieved the Death Beast.

In this world, there was probably only one Deus who could compete with Lucifer through fraud.
