LIGHTNOVELWORLD chapter 100
100. Return (3)
The smell of blood tickled the tip of my nose.
Yuma walked towards the defense fortress, which had a very distorted shape.
Lilith’s subordinates had suppressed Bergette’s direct descendants according to their master’s orders.
Sereung-
Kara, a demon who would soon become the head of the engraved family ＜Revian＞, drew her sword. It was a sword given to him by one of Lilith’s subordinates.
“…I have no intention of making you feel the same pain we felt.”
Kara had a stern expression on her face as the man kneeling in front of her, Zargos, trembled.
“How dare you… think you can kill me?”
Zargos thought of himself as a chosen being. And that was definitely the truth. If you have the bloodline of the Great Demon King, you are definitely the chosen one in this demon world. However, the problem was that the halo had now been properly erased.
The image of Zargos now being forced to his knees clearly showed that reality. The dagger stuck on Zargos’ knee so that he could not move was scattering light.
Once Kara made her decision, there was no hesitation.
He plunged the sword straight into Zargos’ heart. Blood poured out from Zargos’ mouth.
In this way, Kara killed Zargos, Verzette’s first son. The remaining members of the Levian family also cut off Bergette’s direct lineage.
Yuren, the youngest of the bloodline imprinters, thrust his sword into the heart of Jaymel, who had engraved the imprint with his own hands a few days ago.
The engraved family ＜Revian＞ was clearly a demon race. Although they had been oppressed for a long time, they still possessed the fighter aspect that demons are born with instinctively.
Nine screams fell to the floor of the Blood World Castle.
Just like that, the life of Archdemon King Bergette’s direct lineage was completely cut off.
next day.
The Great Demon King Lilith immediately performed a ceremony to transfer the authority over the demonic beasts of ＜Blood World Castle＞ to the Levian family.
Yuma saw Lilith perform the process with her own eyes.
With this, the schedule in ＜Demon World＞ was coming to an end.
“…here it is.”
Kara politely gestured towards Yuma.
Yuma looked at Selene’s grave.
Yuma, who had been looking at the grave for a while, slowly got up. And then he faced Lilith standing in front of him.
“I will come back in 10 years to inspect your homework.”
Great Demon Lord Lilith opened her red eyes wide.
“Homework…test?”
“okay.”
“You won’t see any more crazy people who want to test my daughter’s homework… I understand. I will keep the union straight.”
Yuma nodded.
“Okay, let’s make sure we don’t end up blushing at each other later.”
Let’s do well.
Lilith said with a smile on Yuma’s words.
“Of course, I look forward to seeing you later! Yuma!”
That was the end of our farewell to the Great Demon King Lilith. Yuma looked at the Levian bloodlines standing behind Lilith. Levian’s nine immediate descendants all looked at Yuma and knelt before her.
“I will remember the grace and mercy of my benefactor.”
The remaining nine bowed their heads deeply and quietly repeated the words of Kara, who had become the new head of the Levian family.
“I will remember the grace and mercy of my benefactor.”
Yuma slowly looked at the nine lineages of ＜Revian＞ whose imprinting ability was awakened.
“Survive.”
To Yuma’s words, the nine people responded vigorously at the same time.
“egg plant.”
Yuma said, looking at Bell next to him. Belle nodded her head and took out the homing device Yuma had given her before they entered the demon world together. It was an ultramarine blue Middle Earth return device.
Since the location was set to the Imperial Palace of the Astes Empire, all I had to do was press the button in the center.
Two people pressed the button at the same time.
Flash!
And with a burst of blue light, the two humans who had stepped into the demon world disappeared.
Archdemon Lilith let out a low sigh as there was nothing in the place where Yuma and Bell had clearly been standing.
“It was the most bizarre week in my life….”
There were two humans who stayed in the demon world for a week.
Cut off the life of one of the Great Demon Lords. He liberated the slave family ruled by the Great Demon King’s bloodline.
Lilith sighed and turned around.
He looked at the nine lineages of the engraved family ＜Revian＞ who were bowing their heads towards him.
“…Yes, we are trying to make the engraving family a famous family once again.”
The eyes of the imprinted bloodlines lit up at Lilith’s words.
“yes!”
Nine members of the imprint lineage, including Kara, bowed to Selene’s tomb. Even for Selene, who sacrificed herself for this family, Levian. The Levian family had to be raised again to a prestigious family in the demon world.
***
The place chosen as the place of return was clear. The garden right in front of the Astes Imperial Palace.
A blue light flashed in the flower-filled garden.
The two people who walked out of that halo of light were Yuma and Belle.
“uuu…!!”
Ermel, a former saint, and Hestia, a Miao swordsman, stopped walking along the garden path every morning.
2 weeks.
Hestia, who saw Yuma for the first time in almost two weeks, hurriedly ran away.
He rushed forward without thinking about the physical strength of Ermel, whose left wrist was grabbed by him.
“Yumayuma!”
Tudadadada!
Hestia came running towards me, pricking her cat ears.
“You’re finally back!”
Yuma nodded, looking at Hestia who opened her eyes and shouted loudly.
“Yes, I’m back.”
After Yuma answered like that, he looked at the blonde former saintess Ermel.
“Are your training as a wizard going well?”
“Yes, four! It’s going well! Yuma-sama!”
Ermel answered loudly for no reason.
Yuma said while looking at Hestia.
“Welcome back! Yuma’s sword!”
Bell smiled at Hestia, who called herself Yuma’s sword and expressed her joy.
“Yes, I’ve been there.”
“Is Clone okay?”
Hestia, who was in a reunion hug with Bell, quickly responded to Yuma’s words.
“Yes, Clone is currently at the Red Magic Tower, located below the capital, and has been going down to practice magic. A week ago.”
“is it.”
Clone also seemed to be putting a lot of thought into becoming stronger.
When Clone heard that he had arrived, he would leave the Red Magic Tower and come back to the capital.
Yuma thought of someone he had to see right now. Brigitte. First, I had to see the emperor of this land.
“Let’s go to the imperial palace together.”
Hestaa’s scarlet ears perked up at Yuma’s words.
“Yes, Yuma!”
Ermel, who was walking closely behind Hestia, opened his mouth.
The two started whispering.
So quietly that Yuma, who was ahead, couldn’t hear.
“Uh, when should I tell you that the temple is under construction….”
Hestia responded to Ermel’s words with a serious expression, as if she was about to carry out a great task.
“Anyway, we’ve only changed the temple sign to that, so let’s make it more believable and say it! Surprise Yuma!”
“yes!”
Ermel also nodded his head vigorously and agreed.
Yuma and Belle headed to Brigitte’s office. The chief secretary who reliably holds the position of Brigitte’s staff.
Brigitte’s eyes widened when she saw Yuma.
Brigitte put down the document she was reading with a stern expression and jumped up from her chair.
“You arrived safely, Yuma.”
Brigitte, emperor of the Astes Empire, said so and walked toward Yuma.
“okay.”
Brigitte lifted her heel while wearing her shoes to match Yuma’s height.
Brigitte raised her slender right arm and gently placed her hand on Yuma’s face. Then she lightly grasped his chin with her index finger and thumb.
Yuma’s face slowly moved left and right.
“You’re not hurt anywhere.”
Brigitte slowly lowered her hand after confirming that there were no injuries on Yuma’s face.
Yuma twisted the corner of his mouth.
“Do you know that just by looking at the face?”
Brigitte grinned at Yuma’s words.
Their eyes stared at each other.
“So, did you get everything you needed to get?”
Yuma nodded slowly in response to Brigitte’s question.
“Yes, I got it all. And…I need time to make what I got into my own. Today. No, don’t let anyone come into my place until I come out of my place.”
“Okay, I get it.”
“Clone is in the Red Magic Tower?”
Brigitte explained in detail to Yuma’s question.
“Yes, Clone asked me to first contact Eldrie, the Red Magic Tower lord. Probably because Eldrie is the highest level wizard that Clone knows.”
And there is no need to limit the empire. This was true even if it limited the entire human race.
“I will immediately contact the Red Magic Tower, and when I hear that call, I will return to the capital immediately.”
“okay.”
Even Clone’s whereabouts.
After checking all the parts that needed to be checked, Yuma entered his quarters within the imperial palace.
Yuma sat upright on the floor and took out several items from his subspace pocket.
The items lined up on the floor one by one were items that people would never see or buy in their lifetime.
[Vulkan—Decht’s Dragon Heart].
The dragon heart of the red dragon ＜Vulkan—Dehit＞, which was left in the place where the black dragon ＜Elcam—Arreon＞, killed by Yuma, occupied as a rare.
By taking this Dragon Heart, Yuma can escape from his current status as a criminal.
That was the reason why Yuma had to go to the Demon World.
The first prerequisite for taking Dragon Heart.
[Sprout of the Golden Rule].
An item given by the system after killing God Incree. In ＜Loop Blood＞, this is an item possessed by gods belonging to the good side. This series of processes was also an opportunity that made me think that the ‘system’ may be related to God in the realm of goodness.
And the second conditional material.
[Blood of the Great Demon King].
Yuma drew blood from [Great Demon King Bergette’s heart] and put it in a flask.
Red blood splattered in the flask.
[Would you like to combine the ingredients?]
Yuma nodded slowly.
[Put the Dragon Heart and the Golden Rule Sprout on top of each other and spill the blood of the Great Demon King on top of them.]
Yuma carried out the action as explained.
Grumbling─
The Great Demon King’s blood was sprinkled on the golden rule sprout placed on top of the Dragon Heart.
Golden brilliance filled the place in an instant. And where all the ingredients are fused together. There was one golden bead.
‘… Cheongsimhwan?’
It was a bead that looked very similar to an object called Cheongsimhwan in the world where Yuma lived.
Yuma swallowed the bead.
gulp.
Soon, I lost consciousness.
dump.
Yuma, who fell to the floor, could only look at the ceiling.
My vision, which had been blacked out for a moment, slowly returned.
[Vulkan—Taked Decht’s Dragon Heart.]
[Time remaining until full activation: 30 days.]
“under.”
Yuma breathed a sigh of relief that his body didn’t explode or die.
“Well, there’s no way something the size of a dragon heart can be digested right away.”
Yuma muttered that and stretched.
Other than my body being a little hot, I was fine.
All that’s left is to wait a little more.
Until the Dragon Heart you took has completely settled into your body.
***
Puhwaaa!!
The right arm of the fighting god Barbatos was piercing something.
“Krruuu… areo!
That was God.
After Barbatos’ persistent pursuit.
The second-tier god of the scholar class, ＜God of Wisdom and Magic – Lochmenton＞, was caught in the hands of Barbatos.
“Rejoice, Lochmenton.”
The face of Lochmenton, a god who resembles a giraffe, was greatly distorted.
“The power you have perfected suits me. I will use it well.”
“…I wasn’t hiding under the ugly evil spirits…Cluck!”
Rockmenton clicked his tongue.
“A curse will be upon you, you unscrupulous ones.”
Barbatos’ red eyes lit up and he raised the corner of his mouth.
Barbatos’ right arm completely pierced Rockmenton’s upper body.
Barbatos’ right arm with bulging muscles and veins. And in the hand at the end of that right arm, Lochmenton’s bright red heart was beating.
“Stop dying, you pathetic, unbecoming godly species.”
Kwa-jik!
Lochmenton’s heart burst.
Lochmenton’s brilliantly shining golden eyes turned pitch black.
Three groups of lights emerged from Lochmenton’s corpse lying on the floor of the God Realm. Barbatos picked up the green-colored orb that was the brightest among the beads of light.
And swallowed it.
It was the moment when the power that Rockmenton perfected after thousands of years of research became one of the powers of Barbatos.
Barbatos swung his right arm.
Rockmenton’s flesh and blood splattered onto the floor.
Barbatos slowly raised his head. Black hair was blowing in the wind. Barbatos’ red eyes gazed at the sky.
“You seem quite concerned about that person, Malphas.”
Barbatos looked at Malphas, the crow-shaped evil spirit who had told him about Yuma. A huge crow was flying in the sky.
“…Yes, to be honest, yes, Barbatos.”
Barbatos grinned.
“Malphas, you are a god with a fighting spirit that is different from this b*stard. I will go down to kill him soon. I am very curious what kind of guy he is that you care so much about.”
fluttering-
Malphas unconsciously increased the speed of his slowly flapping wings.
Flap – flutter!
This is because the fighting spirit emanating from Barbatos’ whole body was so fierce that it was tiresome.
Tushin looked at his own body.
“I’m worried that the bug might get crushed too easily.”
Now, there is no one in this god world whose pure force is stronger than mine.
Barbatos was sure of that.
“It would be nice to have at least some entertainment.”
To kill time.
Barbatos hoped that Yuma would be at least a toy to play with.
