The King of the Battlefield

Chapter 261. A War with the Demon Gods (4)

Amon!

The ruler of all magic,

The top-ranked Demon God who holds the 7th seat!

Muyoung paused for a moment. It’s because not even Muyoung had expected him to show up.

‘The top Demon Gods are not good at cooperating with each other.’

Amon. Why was he here?

If there is something that weighed on Amon’s mind, it is Enroth.

Enroth was originally the king of the demons under the command of Amon.

Muyoung had lifted a spell that Amon casted on Enroth, by turning him undead.

There’s no way that Amon, the magic ruler, could fail to notice it.

Moreover… Other ‘informers’ may have told him that Enroth was obeying Muyoung. Although this development was predicted, the timing was earlier than expected.

‘Amon is aiming for me.”

Muyoung summed up his thoughts.

If the first opponent is Amon, this would be beyond his capabilities. To be honest, Amon is one of the worst opponents.

In Dantalian’s memories, Amon played the role of a ‘strategic coordinator’. It means, he had the role of directing Baal and other Demon Gods.

He was recognized for his excellent skills, and not even Dantalian knew Amon’s ability. Honestly, there were too many unknowns.

“It will be a bad match.”

“Will you give up?”

Muyeoung snapped bitterly at Gremory.

Gremory was well aware of the power of Amon.

Numerous demons rushed to block the Demon God who had torn the barriers created by the King of Death, but a huge explosion occurred when Amon just crooked a finger.

Like moths rushing a bonfire, the demons fell in shower of bodies, blood and body parts.

He’ll get here… 5 minutes will be enough.

Gremory shook his head.

“Amon is one of Baal’s closest allies. If we can beat him, it will certainly suppress the action of the coalition.”

“You are optimistic.”

“I don’t want to lose.”

Gremory clasped her hands.

Unlike when she fought Lerajie, she is recovered now.

Zhuang! Zhuang! Zhuahhhhhhh!

All the demons under Gremory’s command are covered with a pink shield.

Kuuwoon!

And a huge statue of the Demon Goddess appeared on the ground in front of Gemory.

At the same time, Amon’s attack weakened.

“I created a barrier to minimize magic power. This is all I can do.”

She said it as if it was nothing, but it was great enough.

Amon, the founder of magic. His magic power figures would easily exceeded 1,000. Not just 1000… if Muyoung’s instincts are correct, it actually exceeds 1,500.

Amon is really the highest level of Demon God.

But Gremory was coping with it. Although it didn’t have much effect, it was true that Amon’s attacks were significantly reduced. Even though she had put mana barriers on millions of their forces.

It was an operation beyond common sense. It is amazing no matter how many times Muyoung saw it.

However, Muyoung can’t sit back and wait.

“Tacan. I’m gonna send you in.”

Tacan stood with confidence.

He seems to know what roles he should do.

Tacan, who rode the Bone Dragon, looked as if he could be called a “Dragon Knight”.

“Block the ‘Breach’ with the Crimson Balrog. We need to plug the gap, so that the shields of the King of the Dead wouldn’t be broken.”

How long can barriers stop the Demon Gods?

It’s sure to break. It was a matter of time.

What Muyoung can do is to delay the time as much as possible.

So they should isolate Amon and try to win.

“Okay.”

Tacan flew on the Bone Dragon.

Crimson Balrog glanced Muyoung, and the flapped his wings.

Muyoung spread out his four wings.

He took out Gabriel’s spear and separated out the power of Luciferre.

And there was a something that he felt when he concentrated on this task.

‘Paimon?’

It was the similar feeling he had felt in the battle with Lerajie before.

Like someone is spying him.

Paimon is the only one having a skill like this.

Perhaps the reason why this immense host quickly reached this place, was because of Paimon.

Then there was a possibility that this fight would also reach Baal’s ears.

What should he do?

Should he remove Paimon’s spy first?

It was impossible to deal negligently with Amon. Maybe this was finally the time to use the skills Muyong had kept hidden as trump cards.

‘But…… it’s strange.’

The movement of Paimon’s spy was strange.

He wasn’t looking at Muyoung.

He wasn’t looking Gremory, his opponents, or even Amon.

What he’s looking at is something farther away.

He was watching something that even Muyoung couldn’t detect.

So even though Muyoung was able to detect his magical spying, Paimon wasn’t aware the spy was being spied on.

Muyoung turned his eyes to the place where Paimon’s spy was looking.

He closed his eyes, broadened his sense more and accepted the surroundings “completely.”

And……he found.

There was another one watching this war the same as Paimon.

In exquisite irony, the information sown to confuse their enemies became the truth.

‘Solomon.’

Solomon!

He was here.

Muyoung’s face became stern.

***

“Worms! How dare they!”

The city of Loim, the Demon God of 40th seat, began to burn.

In other words, the conditions of his extinction, “destruction of his city” has been achieved.

At the moment, Loim’s influence diminished. Loim and his demons have become weaker. Loim and his army, who had been crushing mountains, began to pull back little by little.

However, the allied forces, who had declared a ‘Holy War’ wasn’t in good condition either.

“Huff- Huff- Damn it!”

“There’s no end!”

“Ahhhhhh”

It was a battlefield full of curses, screams, and swords tearing the flesh.

All were out of their minds. Because of too many deaths.

However, there were always more to kill.

Loim wasn’t just being beaten.

“I’ll kill you all. I’m gonna show you what the true destroyer is!”

No matter how weak he is, Loim is a Demon God. There was an earthquake when he struck the ground.

Thump! thump! thump! Baaaaang!!

No one could stop Loim’s rush in the shape of a giant rhino.

Loim’s charge was capable of collapsing buildings. Someone caught under his pad feet was crushed into paste.

“Crazy rhinoceros!”

“Stop him! Do something!!”

Although the city was destroyed, there were too few who could directly confront the Demon God. The absence of someone truly strong.

However, Merlin and Hansung were facing Loim.

“Leader! Avoid!”

“Huff huff … !”

Kim Tae-hwan raised his willpower to the limit.

It is unknown how many demons he killed.

He gave up counting it over 100.

He felt like the saliva in his mouth has dried up and eyes were being plucked out. And he thought he’d be finished soon.

A rhino-shaped Loim was rushing toward Kim Tae-hwan.

‘It’s hard to avoid.’

It was like a slow motion.

And instinctively, he felt death. Can’t be avoided. In front of sure death, he smiled.

‘I wanted to see it once more.…’

Suddenly he remembered the time when he was in the blue temple.

The relationships he made there still remain deep in Taehwan’s memory.

If he could meet them again, he would brag that he’d changed a lot and he became the vice master of a prominent guild with his efforts.

Many things have changed since Tae-hwan became the vice master of his guild. It has improved greatly, by kicking out the corrupt, generously supporting the recruits with potential, and helping to change the attitudes of the Great City itself.

Rotten vested interests.

He’d stood against them.

As promised to Muyoung, to show everyone, Kim Tae-hwan had gone his own way.

Muyoung was correct.

Taehwan is a hero. He is a hidden contributor.

But is it too early to taste the glory?

Thump! thump! thump! Baaaaang!!

Loim rushed toward him.

Taehwan gripped his sword with the last of his last strength.

‘I will not just die.’

He will be seen fighting until the end. It’s unfair to end by just giving up.

But… when Loim closed to Taehwan, he stopped.

Loim stoped and looked up at the sky.

At the same time, the sun was obscured.

The deep darkness. ‘The moon’ rose.

“What happen? Why is it suddenly…?”

“The sun… disappeared…”

“Wh-what the hell is that? What is that thing?”

While everyone was making a fuss, there was a huge thing coming through the darkness.

It was shaped like a dragon, but the size wasn’t comparable to a normal dragon.

It’s just filled the sky.

“He is coming.”

Hansung smiled, wiping his bloody lips with his hand.

The King of Dragons.

He finally showed up.

But he wasn’t alone.

Isn’t he only in the early teens now?

Next to him, there was a boy or a girl with blue eyes and hair.

The eyes seemed to have frost without emotion, and no one knew the reason, it was creepy just watching it.

“And the child of the moon…”

Hansung knelt in the middle of the war.

The Child of the Moon.

One of the four transcendents who rule the world!

A Power that had never been seen before and veiled in secrets.

But now, its presence appeared with the King of Dragons.

That’s not all.

Countless dragons following the King of Dragons.

Numerous spirits following the Child of the Moon!

They attacked Loim and his underlings.

“Arghhhhhhhhh! Do you think I’ll lose!”

Loim shrieked.

But with their appearance, the battlefield was sharply tilted.

Loim, weakened by the completion of the extinction conditions, couldn’t fight all of them.

Allied forces were dumbfounded for a moment.

“Wh-what’s that? Are they our forces?”

“What’s going on here?”

Haseong approached to the dragons immediately. And he sheathed his sword and spoke with courtesy.

“Thank you for your decision, your majesty, and thank you, my lord Child of the Moon.”

The King of Dragons didn’t answer.

Instead, the Child of the Moon opened his mouth.

“Where is Muyoung?”

“What? He isn’t here.”

“We have to go to him. It will be too late if he meets Solomon.”

Hansung tilt his head.

The Child of the Moon. He shouldn’t feel any emotions from the child, but he seemed anxious.

“Could you tell me the reason?”

“The angel of Solomon taken away by Baal……it is in Muyeoung.”

“The angel…?”

The child closed his eyes and said,

“If Solomon recovers that angel, Solomon is complete. Then the world will be over.”

* * *

Solomon tilted his head.

This is because there was one thing that caught the eye, even though he reached here while trying to figure out the movements of the Demon Gods.

‘It’s strange.’

Almost nothing could attract this much of his attention.

Neither Amon nor Gremory received the attention of Solomon.

But strangely enough, the winged guy was interesting.

Solomon looked up the sky.

Stars. The stars are moving. The stars are moving with him in the center.

‘The guide of the stars.’

Come to think of it, King Slayer was looking at the stars.

King Slayer wasn’t an emotional person. But when he saw the stars, he was acting as if he felt hope.

Why? Why he did do?

‘That’s him.’

Solomon was sure.

King Slayer’s hope was that winged guy.

But it was disappointing. By the strength he could feel, it was like a high level Demon God. But then he can never reach Solomon.

In addition, there were so many disparate energies felt.

In short, it’s just an assortment. Solomon has also never met the one in full of chaos like that.

‘King Slayer, the hope you’ve seen and believed in is really poor.’

What would King Slayer have felt if that hope was lost?

Solomon reached out his hand.

If he had been able to exert a proper influence in this world, he could have gotten rid of him right now.

Unfortunately, however, more intervention than necessary was impossible.

He’s the guide of the stars. He had the divinity and carried the stars. It means that he was recognized in this world, so Solomon couldn’t deal with him now.

It would be possible to intervene with Diablo, but he didn’t want to show up on this battlefield.

The guide of the stars was lucky.

‘Um?’

Then Solomon looked at him again.

He almost missed it, but no matter how he looked, it was strange.

That’s the power of chaos. A human being can handle it?

Besides, that human’s timeflow was very heterogeneous.

‘The axis of Time is working differently.’

Not right now, but Solomon was able to even manipulate Time in the past.

Of course, it means that he can also recognize the ‘Heterogeneity of Time.’

Solomon’s eyes turned black eventually.

Thus, Solomon could even see the soul.

And found.

“Ah-ah-!”

Solomon was shuddering, like someone who found something important that was lost long ago.

It was the spirit that had been taken away by Baal and he couldn’t find where it was.

‘Als Paulina, My angel!’

An angel who had helped Solomon manipulate Time.

The angel was with Muyoung.

He didn’t know what happened, but it was clear.

And if he can get the angel back, he doesn’t have to bother with Diablo. He could make this world a pile of ashes right now.

King Slayer.

Is that what you believed in?

Solomon was fascinated.

And soon he smiled and opened his mouth.

“I’ll have to get it back.”

Because Als Paulina, it was originally his angel.
