Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 274

61. The Last Day of Jose’s Continent (3)

— Well, that’s all said and done, so there’s one thing I’d like to ask. Can Lucy Pell die?

-Don’t you already know the answer?

-I like to be sure. Because I don’t want to waste my time chasing unicorns or something.

– I have never heard of an angel dying until now. But

if you are a demon lord, you always die.

-Is that your answer?

—That’s right.

Deus crossed his arms.

There was no reason to be in here anymore.

I came out of the Karma Vortex and came back to Yulgeum.

“You came really quickly.”

“let’s go.”

“Where?”

“To get the barbell.”

“yes? “You got it wrong?”

“I’m going to get my hands on a barbell.”

“Why does the story turn like that? Don’t you know how dangerous that machine is? “If you take it back and give it back to Kamael, you can’t have it.”

“Then stop it.”

“Deus!”

At that moment, a dark curtain appeared around where Yulgeum and Deus were.

Yulgeum’s expression hardened.

“What kind of joke is this?”

“A symbol of my trust in you?”

“Is it an enclave?”

“that’s right. Now, let me tell you an interesting story. “A long time ago,

in this world, there lived an idiot named Yulgeum.”

“Let’s fight?”

“That idiot worked hard to maintain the world God created, emphasizing harmony and balance.”

“Okay, let’s fight.”

“Then one day. The things below suddenly started going crazy, saying they wanted to fight the humans. Feeling a sense of crisis that the entire dragons might be divided into two groups and fight, Yulgeum asked for help from a great being. That’s right, that’s me, Deus.”

“You won’t give me a chance to correct the distortion?”

“Well, leave the minor details alone. Anyway, thanks to Deus’s actions, all the dragon rebellions were suppressed, and Yulgeum decided to become a servant out of gratitude.”

“Part 2 is the story of stupid Deus and his clueless subordinates?”

“The story of the great Deus and his foolish minions. The clueless subordinates suddenly tried various things to attack the humans, but all failed. In the end, I even lost my horse.”

“so?”

“Who on earth was prompted by the dragon to start doing such a thing? What about the demons? Did everything happen of one’s own free will? Or…

“Someone is behind it? And that was…

“Lucy Pell.”

“What is the basis?”

“If you pretend to be dead because you can’t die, you usually end up doing suspicious things. Guys like Alex and Daroche did the same. “Lucifer said Demiurge I did not die.”

“But Zeke…

“It was a long time ago. He didn’t die in the battle with the first hero. “Would an archangel lose to an ordinary hero like a brat?” He grumbled with a pouting face.

“The being who was controlling everything in the darkness of the world was none other than Lucifer.”

“Honestly, it’s fun. Your endless imagination. But… there is absolutely no basis for it.”

Deus nodded at Yulgeum’s cynical answer.

“That’s right. So, I’m trying to get hold of the basis for that.”

“Babel?”

“Can I count the people around me on one hand? The warrior Lich King, the dragon god, the angel, and the worst villain of mankind who brought destruction to the Golden Age. Here’s the problem. “Who is the person I should most avoid meeting?”

” Warrior?”

“Beep big.”

“You mean Nezar?”

“But we met. After all, he was sleeping under my house. After

all, I bought that house. After all…

“Are you saying it wasn’t a coincidence?”

“Especially because Alex took care of everything.”

“Kyo Goku Alex?”

“What if the being served by the Seven Dukes is not actually the Demon Lord, but Lucifer? It’s a story with potential. The demons are synthetic trees called Chima Ira created at the end of the Silver Age, and in fact they were destined to become extinct. “Just like dragons.”

“Lucifer became the devil himself to save them.”

“that’s right. Instead,

I had to do one thing for God. Maintaining a harmonious balance in this world. That’s how the treadmill-like war between the devil and the warrior was born. And the Seven Dukes must have been the most outstanding of the synthetic beasts that Lucy Fell personally rescued.”

Yulgeum pressed his lips with his fingertips.

It was a story that drew me in the more I heard it.

“But one thing is a little strange.”

“You mean Nezar?”

“huh. “If he had lived for harmony and balance… he should not have woken up Nezar

.”

“I think that part is a bit ambiguous, too. What does Lucifer want? No, whether that child is alive or not is just a hypothesis born from my imagination, so I have to check it first.”

“Babel lost ownership after Nezar died. “If you get that dangerous thing, Lucifer will move again, right?”

“What are you talking about?”

“What if I stop it?”

“Are you going to stop it?”

“I don’t know.”

Deus looked at Yulgeum blankly. Then he opened his mouth.

“I’ll let you stay by my side.”

“huh?”

“He said he would continue to be by my side. If you feel suspicious, you can hit me. “If Metatron stabs me in the back, no matter how much I am, I won’t be safe.”

“That’s a proposal, right? “I want to be together forever.”

“If you change the words arbitrarily, why do you need conversation in the world?”

“Okay, I’ll give you permission. But

what about the pro pose ring?”

“You feel like doing it?”

“I am the golden song of yulgeum. “I will not forgive anyone who tries to destroy order.”

“Then let’s go back.”

Deus lifted the dark curtain surrounding him.

I could hear the sounds of the world again.

But the sound was unusual.

Deus looked up.

Yulgeum groaned.

“The roots of Sephiroth… are separating!”

If there is a force that follows the same laws in all dimensions, it must be gravity.

Numerous theories were accumulated, and eventually humans solved gravity and anti-gravity using a single technique.

We discovered that dark particles contain a large amount of antigravity, and we found many antigravity at gravitational balance points along the solar system.

This revolutionary work was completed around the 63rd century in the Age of Silver and Gold. It was in the year 3027 of the 31st century according to the Christian calendar used

at the time .

As the name suggests, it was a golden age.

By crystallizing the captured anti-gravity, they created anti-gravity stones and created 10 very large anti-gravity engines based on them.

That is the root of Sephiroth.

The ten ships built with anti-gravity engines were named Keter, Binah Kochma, Geburah Chesed, Tiphareth, Netarch, Hod, Iesod, Malkut.

The 10 ships built one after another

began their exploration into outer space.

But in the end, humanity’s exploration of outer space failed.

The distance to the nearest star is 4.3 light years.

Even on a ship with an anti-gravity engine, it wasn’t easy to get there.

The explorers who went into hibernation using cooling sleep devices were horrified to see thousands of their colleagues turned into mummies when they woke up.

My heart broke one by one as I saw the plasma storm, the strange space creatures, and the seemingly endless horizon of space

.

Even before reaching Alpha Centauri, five ships turned their noses toward their home planet.

In the end, not a single ship reached its goal.

It was impossible to reach another star through navigation.

Humanity was despondent and tired of preparing for projects that would span thousands of years again.

Ten Sephiroth Roots were abandoned in outer space and humanity began a war.

That is the past of the Sephiroth roots.

Afterwards, the angels used the roots of Sephiroth in completely different places.

It was impossible to express the energy of those gigantic ships in any reasonable unit.

A mountain range was lifted up to create a continent.

That is the continent of Jose.

The disc-shaped lump, shaped like a horse, was floating on 10 arks.

Yulgeum’s mind went blank.

Who on earth is trying to separate the roots of Sephiroth?

The closest thing to an answer to this question was Nezar.

But he…

“Is that bastard alive?”

“Could it be Nezar’s doing?”

“If not, who? Lucifer?”

“Probably not. “I can’t believe an angel could do this.”

Michael’s name also came to mind for a moment.

His purpose was vague. It felt like he hated demons, but it didn’t seem like that was the right answer.

“How could you do something like that…

Yulgeum couldn’t find anything to say.

At this moment, I couldn’t even figure out what to do in my head.

It was right then.

“Is that heavier than the moon?”

“huh?”

“Jose Continent.”

“The mass is much smaller, but since it is closer to the Earth, the weight is much more… Wait! “What are you going to do?”

“First, I have to call Zeke.” Deus took out a white bead from his pocket.

After chanting a short spell, a hole slightly larger than the palm of one’s hand opened, and

Zeke’s figure was visible beyond it.

“come.”

“yes? “The store is busy right now.”

“This is not the time to be carefree and just eat. “Close the door and come back.”

Zeke tilted his head through the small window and took out a black bead from his pocket.

After briefly explaining the situation to Sadimus who was next to him, he was sucked into the bead and appeared next to Deus.

“What’s happening all of a sudden? “You said you were going to see Migo. What didn’t go well?”

“Is there any effect on the upper level yet? “An earthquake or something.”

“Oh, it was a little wobbly.”

Zeke scratched his head and looked up.

Countless rock debris was falling like rain.

A huge ball of light erupted from between the rocks.

I didn’t know exactly what it was, but I thought it was somehow similar to the dark particle thrust engine I used.

“I mean…

“I’ll explain it briefly, so relax in the meantime. “Don’t suddenly strain and strain.”

” ancient.”

Zeke turned his shoulders, leaned back, and listened to Deus’ story.

But at the first word, I already had a blank face.

“The continent of Jose is falling.”

” yes?”

“It’s falling. Boom here.”

“What can I do?”

“We should listen first. Since the moon also moved, wouldn’t it work out somehow

?”

“Then quickly…

Yulgeum clapped his hands.

“It’s different with the moon. The moon can be lifted to its original orbit, but that is impossible for the continent of Jose. It would be best to purify the roots of Sephiroth even now, but…

“That won’t work, right? “It can be said that Nezar has already taken control of that control agency.”

Zeke tilted his head again at Deus’ negative story.

“Nezar? “He’s dead.”

“If nothing had happened,

it would be correct to say that he is alive now.”

“But both the heart and the head are gone…

“If not him, there is no one worthy of doing this.”

Yulgeum said.

“That’s not important now. “I’ve been thinking about it, and I think I should land on Jose’s continent.”

“Landing.”

“That’s the only way.”

“Anyway, take command. “We will use our bodies.”

“okay. The continent of Jose is condensed with the energy emitted by the 10 arks. Once that strength is gone, it will be cut into several pieces and shattered. “It goes without saying, but most of the people living on it will die.”

“So that means we have to tie it back up first?”

“I will do that.”

“Can you do it alone?”

“I plan to prevent the pillars from separating all at once. “It won’t be easy, but… we have to try.”
