150: The Tomb Mark of the First Demon King

Lillin was also the first to hear of the idea of the 'Kupidus'. Whether their very existence was in their ears or not knowing about the details......, it was their first ear about their distorted ideas.

"What do you mean? God? What do you know?

Lillin pursues the Akwinas he has described so far.

"Anyone here must have heard the name Demon God Netsafa"

A shock runs and stretches hard on everyone's face when they hear that name.

"So what is it? What the 'Kupidus' were trying to revive was that God is a god or a demon?

Akwinas agrees with Lillin's inquiry.

"You were talking about Xel earlier, weren't you? It says here," Sacrifice "and the God they supposedly worshipped."

Sure, some of Kuzel's explanations said that, but Lillin didn't take it so heavily herself.

It was not so much to worship and believe in the God that we created, but it had happened in the past, and it was not a strange story.

But no way. If that god was not an idol, but a demon who was actually manifesting himself in the world, the story would be different.

"It's definitely about Demons and Netsafas in the Ancient Yuegwan Letters."

Lillin looks Kuzel in the face to be sure, but he nodded seriously to show affirmation.

"The Demon God Netzaffa was long ago an attempt to destroy this [idea]. There was no way that Adams, the first demon king, could have left the 'Kupidus' trying to revive such a presence. So Adams decided to bury them... out of history"

"... couldn't we discuss or something?

Yveam asks anxiously, but Akwinas shakes his head small and sideways.

"... what was in their eyes was madness itself. They said this when they confronted Adams. Only Demons can save and guide us."

"... right"

"The person who doesn't listen to anything. But if we leave them alone, eventually disaster will strike the world. So Adams made a decision. with their own hands and destroyed them."

"Sure, it doesn't matter how many special powers you have in front of the first Demon King. The moment you see her, it's no exaggeration that her life will end."

Words line up to praise Marione as she arms up, but Lillin tongues lightly. Siuba and Akwinas were the only ones who noticed that tongue pounding, but Lilyn was definitely grumpy.

Lillin was uncomfortable because she felt the blood of the first demon king running through her body. He seemed to rejoice as if he was happy to be talked about himself.

Seriously, it wasn't funny because what Marione said was not a mistake.

(It is true that if the power of the first demon king, he is not an opponent, such as a minority with only alien powers)

Even Lillin had to admit that Adams' power deviated too much from the others. That's one thousand, so much so that I even feel the word 10,000 injustices is raw and warm.

The story of the connection between Akwinas' first demon king and the 'Kupidus' is over, and everyone leaks unconsciously a sigh.

"Well, let's get back to this when we know the relationship."

Yes, it was Kuzel who cut the fire.

"Why was it necessary for the Kupidus to produce Sacrifice, for one thing, to revive the Demon?"

"Needed?"

Kuzel pulls his jaw slightly as Marione asks back.

"Yes, this material alleges that Demons created Sacrifice, but Sacrifice was originally part of Demons' body."

"What!

"That's why it seemed like he was building Sacrifice first, and using it as a mediator to revive the Demon."

"You mean..., so the 'Kupidus' were trying to generate 'Sacrifice' in [Door Ruins]"

Marione is good at it and nodding.

"But as a result, the First Demon King destroyed the clan, unable to continue the ritual"

"Then what's the mummy Lord Kuzel was saying?

Now Yveam throws the question at him.

"… you will need a variety of conditions to generate Sacrifice. One of them is a lot of flesh."

…………

"Perhaps they were ready to transport their companions killed by the first Demon King to the ruins. I didn't tell you, but there were other mummies in the coffin that they would have killed."

"No way......"

"Yes, it must have been dedicated as a sacrifice to Sacrifice generation. They're supposed to be better off living flesh, but I'm guessing they collected a lot of bodies for that matter."

Yveam puts his hands on his mouth and looks disgusted.

"But in an attempt to perform the ritual, before that, the First Demon King wiped them out. So the ritual was interrupted, and the bodies abandoned in that ruin were mummified. Originally, flesh should be extinguished and bones alone, but apparently it was written here that that coffin was equipped with the power to prevent and mummy as much rot as possible."

That's how I point to the book that's on my desk.

"But why was the ritual that had been interrupted suddenly resurrected and Sacrifice produced?

Eveam's questioning is natural. But when he heard the words, Kuzel looked down sorry with a bitter look on his face.

"... because I went over there"

"... what do you mean?

"First of all, one of the conditions for" Sacrifice "generation, a lot of flesh, it's enough with mummies resting in numerous coffins"

Everyone snorts back and describes it as convincing.

"The next step in generating Sacrifice is to need the right kind of mediation."

"Mediation...?... Is that Lord Kuzel's... sword?

"The Demon King is right."

"I see, indeed, a sword built by someone like Kuzel Gio would serve as an impeccable mediator"

Akwinas gives Kuzel's sword praise, but he remains sinister looking. I'm happy to be praised, but I'm also convinced of his expression because it has caused immeasurable trouble.

"The sword that was there was created quite a while ago, but it was so much less colorful than the rest of the kids."

"Well, the weapons Lord Kuzel built were scattered all over the world, so it's no surprise that they were in the hands of the 'Kupidus'."

Lillin and the others are convinced of Siuba's words.

"But still, only a sword in the flesh. What the hell would I do to make Sacrifice?

Lilyn listens back as soon as she continues to Siuba.

"The rest was already easy. Because their ritual was almost complete."

"Was it finished?

"Yes, and the rest is that if the powerful fly the Spirit of Sacrifice, it's done."

"What?

"Later I realized. That the room itself over there was in the service of a great magic formation."

It's actually hard not to check from the top, but the arrangement of the coffin is just like drawing a magic formation, and Kuzel, who stood at the center of that magic formation, ironically met the activation conditions.

The weakness he felt then was due to the magic taken from him by the activation of an unparalleled ritual.

And he says. He said that the unusual and creepy intentions he felt when entering the room and when he uttered the name of Sacrifice were those of the "Kupidus" who were resting there.

The willingness to detect the intrusion of the highly magical led Kuzel to a brilliant and successful birth of Sacrifice.

"There was probably a strong resentment swirling over there. Now that I think about it, I feel like my thinking and judgment abilities, unlike my usual ones, were also controlled by something. Maybe that's my desire to make it the work of resentment, but I ended up producing the results they wanted before I perished."

Xel breathes painfully with a sad face.

"If you didn't know anything... you can also excuse it was an accident, but my sword was used and besides, Sacrifice was born because I went over there. Whatever you think, it's my fault."

While everyone is wondering what to call them,

"Don't be a jerk, you're a jerk"

He was staring at him with ruby-like red eyes as Lillin pointed his mouth.

"Lillin......?

"You're a genius to call the past Gucci! I know you've decided not to keep running anymore! Then stick your chest up and face the problem! Or are you gonna end up regretting it!

Bishi pokes his finger at Kuzel and says off. Anyone but the smiling Siuba who was around has become Kyoton and lost his word.

After a short while, the cheek of Xel, which was distracted, is loosened.

"You're no match for Mr. Lillin. It's okay. Mr. Hiiro taught me too. I don't run anymore. So this is how I teach you what I know."

"Hung, if you know what I mean, that's fine."

"Nofofofo, good for you, young lady"

Looking at the two like that, Akwinas seems to have smiled slightly, but no one has noticed that grin.

And like that, he immediately opens his mouth with a serious look.

"Then let me help you with that knowledge and do it. Kuzel Gio, I'm pretty sure the previous Demon King has that Sacrifice, don't you?

"Yeah, I checked with these eyes. I don't know how you got it from the [Belial Sea], but it can't be wrong because it's also my sword originally"

"Hmm, I used the power of Sacrifice to get the treasure of [Shanjmon Cave], The Nucleus of the First Demon King. Hard to believe in Russia, but for sure?

"Yes, perhaps the previous Demon King cut his own life and fed Sacrifice the illusion created by the Nucleus of the First Demon King."

"The Devil's Sword, which can also do that... That means that the previous Demon King is in possession of Sacrifice, which is part of the Demon God/Netsafa. This is not good..."

Akwinus' words rocked the heads of Yveam and Marione vertically. They also seem to understand the magnitude of the matter.

It was a serious matter not to be missed that Avoros, who declared war on the world, possessed the power, albeit part, of the Demon God who was about to bring the world to ruin.

Its effects have already been proven. The fact that we have the Nucleus of the First Demon King, which was supposedly out of everyone's hands, tells the story of it. Moreover, it is horrible that a single sword has formed it.

When those on the Demon King's side are worried about the future,

"I ask you one thing..."

Mouth what Lillin had a few doubts about.

"The Nucleus of the First Demon King"... why was it kept in such a place?

Something inexplicable happened to Lillin in the first place. Why does the Nucleus of the First Demon King still exist in this world? And why was it hidden in [Chanjmon Cave]?

Adams, once the first demon king with his mighty power, set out on a wandering journey, entrusting his country to those who understood and trusted his period of death. He told the state people that it was to find somewhere where he deserved to die.

Everyone disagreed.

What you do is unscrupulous, rigid and audacious, and then a woman who combines beauty enough to attract everyone's attention. Even so, she was the founder of [Demon Nation/Heros] and the guide of the 'Demon Nation'.

So even if you die, there are a large number of people in the country who would like you to live up to that life expectancy. Yes, everyone appreciated her.

But most people know she'll never bend what she said once. Persuasion was utterly pointless. And in front of everyone, she turned her smile and left the country like a wind.

Among those who watched the sight was a woman named Shirloo. She was the one to whom Adams entrusted his country and undoubtedly the daughter who drew Adams' blood.

- Charles Li Laisis Redrose.

And it was Lilyn Li Raisis Redrose whose daughter had a stomachache that gave birth to this world.

Charles, his mother, had asked him what Adams was like. And also that the magic you have is the same magic as Adams.

No one in this world has the same unique magic. Which means Adams, who went on a journey, was out of breath somewhere. That's how Lillin recognized it.

But the fact that the Nuclear, which should also be called Adams' second heart, is thus stored in [Shanjmon Cave], which exists near [Demon Nation], means that at least someone likely saw Adams' death.

And now, as we were discussing around Kuzel, I wondered why that "Nucleus of the First Demon King" had been kept here, and I tried to ascertain its sincerity with Eveam the Demon King.

"It's... I don't really know the details, either."

Yveam lays his eyes down sorry.

"You don't get it? Are you succeeding the Demon King?

"What was asked was that" The Nucleus of the First Demon King "rests in [Shanjmon Cave]. And that meant no one would ever get it in their lifetime... how about Marione?

"Mm-hmm? Is that me? That's right, it's just me and Akwinas, even in Kruel, who know that the Nukes are hidden over there. And it was your mother, Vincent, who told me about it."

"Your mother? Right..."

Looks like Marione's unexpected words gave her a mild shock.

But they didn't ask who kept it in a place like that for what.

The moment Lillin thought there was no clue,

"Well, maybe you don't mind telling me who's here."

Suddenly Akwinas opens his mouth, but everyone opens their eyes to the meaning of what he says and does.

"A, Akwinas...... you know?

To Yveam's inquiry he nods small.

"Oh, naturally."

Of course...? Lillin stares at him with a strange face. And the next thing I know, I'll stop with the words he utters.

"Because the only reason I kept Nuke there... is because I'm not the only one."

The silence is enveloped as if time had frozen. Only someone's breath comes into Lillin's ear. I have to say something, but all of a sudden my head gets confused.

That should be it, too. Because it's my own brother who said incredible things...

"Duh, duh, what do you mean?

It was Yveam who broke the silence first. Is she surprised, too? The tone is changing.

"Oh, yes, Akwinas! Didn't you even tell me that! What the hell is going on!

Marione hits Akwinas with angry mixed voices. If you try him, you may be angry at yourself, being a comrade, for what you hid from the demon king like no other.

"Because that was... her wish"

"... but... are you?

Finally Lillin spoke out to squeeze. Akwinas stared into Lillin's eyes, and Lillin caught the light shaking behind those eyes just a little bit.

"... oh, you may not know, but there was a mountain where [Shanjmon] once was"

"Mountain? Really?

Yveam asks if he didn't know, tilting his neck, but Akwinas agrees.

"Oh, it was called [Mount Shanjmon]"

"I mean, what's left of it now [Shanjmon Cave]?

"Yes, and that mountain was inhabited by an organism"

"Biology...?

"The creature was Adams' first friend... and the first life he took with his hands"

It hardens like everyone else has been gnawed. But Akwinas continued without reacting to it.

"From the moment Adams was born, he let his powerful magic run wild and cast his magic on his friends"

"Ma, what's magic... rumored" phantom dream magic "?

Yveam also speaks whether he knew the name, and Akwinas shakes his head small and vertical to represent affirmation.

"Oh, the runaway magic couldn't be done to Adams or anything. Friends lost their sanity and stormed out as if they were afraid of something. The outburst was enough to break the mountain."

So now the mountains are gone and formed like caves as their remnants. Especially when it comes to the work of the monsters who live there.

"Whatever you say, my friend, I won't stop you from rumbling. But it didn't last long either. Because of her magical strength, her friends carried a load not only on the spirit but also on the flesh, and……… lost their lives"

"Oh, no..."

It won't be impossible for Yveam to squeal like that. It happens naturally when I think of Adams, who killed his first friend on his own, albeit unintentionally.

Other faces are frowning and seriously consolidating their expressions.

"Then she suffered greatly. There was nothing she could do. The creature didn't tell much about itself, he didn't even know the species in detail. But Adams was still happy to play with his friend. That's why I blamed myself for killing my friend. And she decided to treat it dearly as a tomb mark for her friends."

"Gravemarks..."

I don't know what Yveam said either, but he looks disgusted with his face.

"That's why Adams wanted to die there when he understood his time of death. But before that, I decided to take a look around the world that my friend said he would like to see someday. To meet you in Yellow Springs with your friends' dreams."

Adams said he wanted to tell the world about the dreams his friends couldn't fulfill because of themselves, and when it was the afterlife, at least as atonement.

"It was a real coincidence that I met her. One day, I went to border security. Fu and I wanted to see the ocean, and I acted on that emotion. So I found her... Adams falling on the beach"

He said he didn't know it was Adams at first. Her appearance is so far from youthfulness, she was like a fine doll-like body with a thread cut without power.

The red lotus hair color, which was beautiful enough for 10,000 people to fall in love with, was also losing strength and smoking. But it seemed a shame to her that Akwinas appeared there.

She asked him to take her to a place he had. Whether Akwinas thought it would be better to treat him first or not, his own "Demon Eye" had brutally told him it was too late. Still, there are heaps of people who would be glad if she returned to the country.

That being said, Adams didn't shake his head vertically as hard as he could. That's all he said he wanted me to take him to one place, [Shanjumon].

Because of my last self... say so.

Akwinas was also beneficial to her. She told me some interesting stories, and I used to train her in combat.

Akwinas also respected her like that, which everyone admitted. So he made a decision. to act as she wishes.

That's how they came to [Chanjmon Cave], where they had a conversation for a while behind the cave. That's where I heard about Adams' friend.

I don't know how much time has passed. It's just that Akwinas was silently listening to what she had been seeing. No, it was more like she was telling someone who wasn't here than she was telling Akwinas.

That must have been obvious if she'd asked who she'd gone around the world for. I watched her quietly moving her mouth with a vain expression.

But all of a sudden she coughs painfully. Then it's time, there's a light in her eyes that I've seen one day. My sanity is back.

And that's when she asked for Akwinas.

"I want this place to be a tomb mark for eagles"

I heard about her obsession here. Akwinas couldn't deny it or anything. When I said I would definitely defend myself here, she laughed calmly and certainly happily.

She closed her eyes quietly and never opened them again after that.

As I stare at her wreckage, smiling happily after dying to my mind for a while, suddenly her body is wrapped in light and floating in the universe.

There's so much light that I can't keep my eyes open, and Akwinas is confused about what's going on. And the light disappeared, and Akwinas, who saw the sight in front of him, lost his words.

There was an infinitely spread earth and countless spheres of blue and white light. It soon became clear that that was the power of her "nucleus".

And why did this happen...

"She just wanted to protect the place. He passed away entrusting his last magic to the Nuke so that no one could break it."

To protect the two tomb markers that sleep in the future forever......
