Chapter 500 – Returning
– Ha ha ha! – ringing laughter scattered around.
One of the demons behind the Guardian of Fate fell to the ground – he was cut in half.
– I thought I was hiding well… Well, yes, you can’t fool the Master.
From him emerged another demon with sharp claws. He was dressed in a costume rare among demons, and on his head was a neat hairstyle. Arakail, head of the Suffering Squad. He bowed.
– Of course I found out. We were one family, after all, Kang Woo said calmly.
“Family”. The word sounded completely ordinary, but at the same time somehow unfamiliar.
– Family, which means… Yes, apparently, it was so… Although such statements do not fit our family, but you are also not a simple demon, – Arakail laughed.
For enemies, Kang Woo was a terrible Lord, but for the demons who became his wards, he became a real family.
– You are more than anyone else resembled demon… but at the same time they were the least like him, – said Arakail, based on his memories.
He met with the Lord for about three hundred years ago, when Kang Woo killed the Great Ones.
– A lot… yes, a lot happened.
They fought and won together, together defeated the Lords and took their place on the Nine Thousand Circle of Hell.
– It is an honor for me to meet you again, Master, – Arakail bowed politely.
Kang Woo gave him a calm look and carefully lowered the body of the dead Doomguard to the ground. He slowly closed his eyes and said: – Yes, I’m glad too. But only I didn’t think that you would stab me in the back.
– Haha, I also didn’t assume that everything will turn out like this, – Arakail tapped his palm with hundredth claws.
– Arakail, here you are… – Pallock looked at him with with fire in his gaze and clenched his fists, ready to rush at him right now.
– Wait, – Kang Woo stopped Pallock and stepped forward.
He looked at Arakail and asked the question:
Found a missing chapter or text - write it in the Comments. You can improve the Text with the EDITOR!
– Let me ask you something.
– Ask, of course, – Arakail smiled broadly and lowered his head.
– Why did you do this? He asked quietly.
– Ha ha ha!
Arakail laughed loudly and looked down at the Guardian of Fate lying on the ground.
– If you’re talking about why he died… – Arakael clicked his tongue. – So this is because until recently he did not want to listen to my proposal.
– Which proposal?
– Betray you and unite with Baal, – answered Arakail, spreading his arms wide.
Kang Woo didn’t reply.
– No, no, it’s me, what a betrayal. Of course, this is not about betrayal. “He shook his head and laughed. “After all, demons are greedy by nature, aren’t they?
This is their desire that never fades. It is greed that makes demons demons. Greed is everything for them.
– Arakai-e-il! Roared Pallock, who could no longer contain himself.
His growl shook the ground. He clenched his fists and stamped his foot. Black armor began to cover his body, from under which white steam escaped. Pallock, now more like a fog, spread his wings. Arakail raised his sharp-clawed hands, aiming directly at Pallock. A disgusting rattle of claws scattered around the metal.
– Agrh!
Pallock took a quick breath and clenched his fists again. His billowing muscles looked like they were about to explode.
– How dare you betray the Lord?! – there was nothing but anger in the look.
For Pallock, this was equated to a mortal sin. He began to swing his fists with force, and loud bangs were heard around from his blows, as if from a bomb explosion.
– How much did the Master put into you?!
His roar could be compared to the rumble of metal plates. Arakail crossed his arms and stopped Pallock’s attack. They began to fight – more precisely, Pallock attacked, and Arakail only defended.
– You forgot?!
Pallock clenched his fists and put all his strength into the blow. With a loud explosion, Arakael’s arms parted to the sides. Pallock pulled back his right leg and sat down. Staggering, he raised his fist up.
– Heavenly…
And then lowered it down.
– Rift!
Pallock learned a lot from Kang Woo, and even partially adopted his techniques, one of which he could demonstrate right now. A terrible blow, capable of breaking even a mountain, was directed at Arakail. However…
– Haha, you also changed a lot during the time until we saw each other. Didn’t you usually use a whip?
Arakail took the blow with his chest. Pallock’s fist landed on him, but eventually ran into an invisible force and flew back.
– This is… – Pallock winced.
He sensed an unknown force surrounding Arakail. In fact, Pallock knew all too well what that power was.
“Well, anyway,” Arakaila’s lips quivered. – By and large, nothing has changed. You are still the same pathetic creature without Divinity.
Arakail laughed and quickly dropped his hands. Powerful Divinity began to emanate from his claws. Pallock staggered back in horror.
– Agrh!
Arakail’s claws easily pierced through the black armor and left a terrible wound on Pallok’s chest, from which black blood immediately poured. The demon grabbed his chest and fell to the ground, biting his lip.
“Divinity again?”
Pallock clenched his fists on his chest. The difference between those with Divinity and those without is too great.
– You still haven’t received Divinity?
Pallock gritted his teeth and heard the phrase previously said by Si Hoon in his head. He said this to him on the way to the ice temple. Pallock winced. He knew that Si Hoon hadn’t said it out of harm, but it didn’t make it any easier.
– Damn! Damn, damn, damn!
Swearing, Pallock pounded the ground with all his might. Black blood continued to flow from the wound on his chest, and he looked down at it.
“There is a way.”
The new power he mastered made blood a source of strength. This means that the more blood he loses, the stronger he becomes. In this case, albeit temporarily, he gets a way to fight with a creature endowed with Divinity.
“However…”
Doubt appeared in his eyes, and he clenched his fists once more.
– What is it? Arakail asked with a grin. “Realized that you have nothing but your devotion?
Pallock frowned, and Arakail continued with mockery:
– Devotion will not achieve anything. Just like faith or confidence. “He raised his hands with sharp claws. “That’s why the demons need greed. It is she who makes the demon a demon. She complements us. “Arakael shrugged his shoulders and laughed.
He made a deal with Aamon and received Divinity. This powerful force excited his body, warming up from the inside.
– Sir, don’t you think so? – He asked, looking at Kang Woo.
He pursed his lips and looked up at Arakail. The Divinity in his body could compare with the power of Gaia and Tae Moo Geuk.
– Oh… – Kang Woo exhaled.
“Arakail could not receive Divinity on his own.”
The conclusion suggested itself.
“Has he become an Incarnation?”
Either Arakail became the Incarnation of Baal, or one of the Gods with whom he cooperates. But Kang Woo was sure of one thing for sure – now, compared to what he had before, he possessed a much greater amount of strength.
“Baal, did you do this?”
There was no point in just attracting the demons of the Nine Thousand Circle of Hell. Since the restrictions imposed by the commandments were lifted, they certainly needed someone strong, stronger than simple demons.
“I thought about who and how he bestows Divinity.”
But Kang Woo could not imagine that his old servant would become someone’s Incarnation.
“Ha,” Kang Woo chuckled lightly, covered part of his face with his hand and his shoulders shook.-
Fuck, and when did you just learn to push such speeches?
Does Greed complement the demon? Well, well, these are phrases.
– To put it simply, you are sucking up Baal, betraying me along the way, right?
Although Arakail called it not a betrayal, in fact it was.
– Hmm, and you are still rude, – Arakail, frowning, looked at Kang Woo. – And we haven’t seen each other for a day or two. Well, yes, you have always been like that, “” he added at the end.
A memory of Kang Woo flashed through his head: terrible and fierce war. He brought seven Great Demons to their knees and came a long way with his army.
– Oh, what a wonderful time… – Arakail smiled broadly. “But that was the end of it.
After Kang Woo left Hell, another took over his throne.
“You don’t know what greed is anymore,” Arakail said with pity and mockery.
Correct. After absorbing seven Great Demons and becoming the Lord of Hell, Kang Woo decided to give up everything and return to Earth.
– And there is no reason to live life demon.
Demons are greedy. Because of greed, they exist, greed complements them. But the Lord, having become the ruler of Hell, achieved everything that was possible, and lost interest in everything. He no longer wanted more power. After the battle with Baal, not a trace of the Lord’s madness remained.
“And the demons needed a new king.”
The new king who knows what greed is.
“Yes, Baal was perfect for this role.”
His desire and greed were more than obvious.
“And I was perfect for him as an assistant.”
