Chapter 56: Suspicious

Semi asks, looking at Seyul sitting in the living room with anxious eyes.

Seyul’s fame is spreading far and wide now.

It’s all going according to Semi’s plan, but she doesn’t have time to think about that.

Seyul’s reaction is strange, so she’s worried.

“….”

Ever since using Muguk, Seyul has seemed like someone whose mind is elsewhere.

He’s been sitting and staring blankly into space, thinking about something.

Why is he like this?

Unable to watch any longer, Semi asks why he’s acting like this.

“Was Zecross a game company name?”

Seyul asks a question that makes no sense.

It’s such a strange question that Semi’s eyes widen.

“Yeah, it’s Zecross. Don’t tell me you didn’t know until now, Oppa?”

“I didn’t know. I found out for the first time when I saw the announcement from Muguk.”

“How could you not know that? It’s written on the game package you play.”

“I don’t usually look at things like company names.”

Seyul avoids his sister’s gaze and makes excuses to his sister, who is dumbfounded that he doesn’t know something so obvious.

Anyway.

And so, Seyul learned the name of the game company for the first time through Muguk Online.

‘I definitely saw it somewhere?’

What he felt then was déjà vu.

It’s not just because it’s the company that makes the game he always plays.

It felt like he knew it even before he started playing the game.

‘I don’t remember well, but I definitely saw it in the past. If it was before I came back, then in the other world? No, is that not it?’

There’s no way he could have seen a game company on Earth in a fantasy world.

But Seyul had the feeling that he had seen the word Zecross in the other world.

That’s why he was so deeply troubled.

“Is it just a simple delusion?”

“What is?”

“…Semi-ya. What exactly does Zecross do?”

Semi opens her mouth hesitantly when Seyul asks seriously.

“What do you mean, what do they do? They’re a game company, of course.”

“And what else?”

“It’s also the most technologically advanced place in the world. Virtual reality isn’t something you can create with ordinary technology, right? I heard they provide various technical support to our hunters.”

The equipment used by hunters contains technology provided by Zecross.

Some of the famous hunters are related to Zecross.

The appearance of Zecross coincides with the appearance of hunters and monsters.

Their virtual reality technology is impossible for anyone else to interpret.

Etc.

After hearing various explanations, Seyul thought.

‘Suspicious to the max!’

A mere company can create not only virtual reality but also.

Even weapons used by hunters?

Their level of technology is different from everyone else.

It’s also strange that they appeared at the same time as hunters and monsters.

Looking back, he wonders why he hasn’t suspected these guys until now.

The more he hears, the more suspicious they are.

‘However, I don’t know what connection they have with the other world.’

Apart from being suspicious, he doesn’t know what connection they have with the other world.

Is it just a simple delusion after all?

Seyul worries and worries again.

‘Ugh, I don’t know!’

In the end, he raises both hands.

He smiles sheepishly, raising his arms cutely to the sky.

Even if they’re suspicious, there’s no evidence that they’re related to the other world.

Maybe it’s really just Seyul’s delusion.

Besides, even if they’re suspicious, what Zecross is doing is good for humanity.

They’re supporting hunters and helping humanity.

‘I’m also benefiting from the games these guys are selling.’

So Seyul decided to put his suspicions aside for now.

“Semi-ya, it’s okay. Forget about it, it’s nothing.”

“No, now you’re saying it’s nothing…”

“It was just my overreaction.”

He was seriously worried about something, but now he says it was an overreaction.

Semi is naturally dumbfounded, but Seyul soothes his younger sister and heads to his room.

‘I should just continue God’s Warrior.’

Seyul touches his exclusive device.

He liked Muguk Online, but it’s currently under maintenance.

There’s still work to do in God’s Warrior, so he can’t help it.

Seyul logs into God’s Warrior.

To become the Demon King and do what he has to do in the future.

[Oh]

[He’s here!]

[Finally, let’s do it, Demon King!!!]

The viewers who had been waiting also gathered when Seyul started the game.

Muguk Online was fun, but the development of becoming the Demon King is too interesting.

The cheers and expectations were much greater than before.

But.

[Hello. I’m from Japan]

[I’m from the US, is this Miss Seyul’s broadcast?]

There were some different guests today.

[Huh?]

[What did you say?]

[Where are you from?]

The existing viewers are confused by the foreign guests who appeared out of nowhere.

[No way]

[Why are you here from abroad?]

[I came after seeing it in Muguk]

[I was honestly impressed after seeing it last time]

[Muguk?]

[Aang~]

Chatting appears, acknowledging that they came after seeing it in Muguk.

Muguk Online was a game serviced in several countries.

There were many foreign users involved in the last moment of the event.

[I witnessed this person summoning a storm with swordsmanship at that time]

[I got caught up in that and died for no reason because of that]

[I was angry and curious]

[You should have gone wild]

[You showed us the ultimate munchkin]

He showed a fight between Red Moon and humans that was like nuclear bombs fighting.

Moreover, the game went into indefinite hiatus because of this.

Rumors spread among foreign users, and several people came to see it.

It wasn’t a special thing in this day and age.

It happened often in the past.

These days, there’s also a translation system provided by Zecros.

Since the language barrier has disappeared, it’s easy to watch videos from other countries.

However, this time the number was unusual.

[Guys]

[Check the number of viewers now]

[It’s over 100,000!]

The number of viewers exceeded 100,000, how many came to see it from abroad.

It’s more than double the normal number.

[No way, more than 50,000 people came to see it from abroad?]

[Not everyone came to see it from abroad]

[I also found out about it through Muguk, but I’m from Korea]

[It’s noisy because of this woman these days, so I was curious]

[It became a hot topic on the internet]

[So is Seyul noona now top-tier in Korea?]

[In Korea]

[But now that foreigners are coming to see it, we have to count it in global rankings]

[100,000 is nothing compared to the number of people watching on a global scale]

[Why are you talking about global already!]

Foreign, Korean.

A commotion arose due to the huge number of viewers who were simultaneously flowing in.

Some people were purely surprised, while others were already getting excited about the global scale.

Amidst all this commotion, Seyul was confidently entering the Demon King’s castle.

“This is it.”

Aladdin, the Lord of the Wind, who politely guides Seyul.

Even he, who seems to harbor madness, doesn’t reveal it at this moment.

It’s not just Aladdin.

All the demons in this place are solemnly paying their respects.

The Demon King’s castle was different from what people commonly imagine.

It’s a huge underground space, so large that you can’t believe it’s underground.

This is a structure that reflects the taste of the previous Demon King, Rimburn.

It was designed to be large enough for him to operate even in his dragon form.

And Rimburn was the only Demon King until now.

This Demon King’s castle has been maintained as it is without the need to change its structure.

But now.

A new owner has appeared in that Demon King’s castle.

“….”

Seyul silently sits on the throne prepared for her.

The throne was in the center of the space, and Seyul’s body was small, so the throne looked too big.

It looked like a child sitting in an adult’s chair, but no one pointed that out.

How could they say such presumptuous things?

This is a place to celebrate the birth of the new Demon King.

More than 1,000 high-ranking demons who followed into the space were all looking at Seyul with nervous eyes.

While everyone was nervous.

Only one person moved.

A woman in revealing, shallow clothing.

It was Anera, who had a voluptuous body compared to her young appearance.

She scurries to Seyul’s side, who is sitting on the throne, and sits down.

She sits down, leaning against Seyul.

A classic picture of a Demon King and a beauty leaning at her feet is completed.

However, the problem was that the Demon King was also a beautiful girl in this case.

“Ah.”

“What is this.”

The other lords are dumbfounded by their colleague’s disgraceful behavior.

They wanted to drag her out immediately, but they couldn’t act carelessly in this place, so they all endured.

Seyul herself didn’t say anything about Anera’s actions.

She glances at her for a moment and then opens her mouth.

“Now, let’s go to the human world to kill the God of Water and the God of Wind.”

Should we call her a paragon of politicians?

She was a true politician who didn’t forget what she originally claimed even after being elected.

“Is that all you have to say as soon as you become the Demon King?”

The predecessor was fed up with the consistency of the successor.

Rimburn, who was sitting in the form of a dragon in one corner of the space, gave a slight rebuke.

“Everyone here knows your intentions without you having to repeat them over and over again.”

“If you know, why aren’t you going?”

“Don’t rush me. There’s something we need to do before we go.”

Rimburn, who stepped down from the Demon King and became the Demon King’s advisor, gave advice according to his role.

“If you want to go to the human world, there’s a barrier you have to overcome first.”

“What is it?”

“The place that separates our demons from the human realm. In your words, it’s a human fortress that guards the border. Surely you, a human, know about the Ivar Fortress, right?”

“Yeah. What’s that?”

Rimburn’s expression stiffens for a moment.

Even Anera, who was acting cute at her feet, looks up at Seyul in surprise.

Everyone didn’t say it, but they had eyes that said, how could you not know that?

Ivar Fortress.

It’s a fortress built to protect the human world from demons.

It’s also a place operated simultaneously by several countries beyond the borders of the country.

Therefore, the facilities and equipment inside the fortress are of the highest level.

The talents who guard the fortress are also elites gathered from various countries.

In short, it’s the last bastion of humanity, but it’s unbelievable that humanity doesn’t know about it.

“The Ivar Fortress is.”

Hey, what are you going to do if you don’t know that?!

Rimburn, who held back from snapping at her, explains the fortress.

“So, if you want to invade the human world in earnest, you have to get past this fortress. But if it were that easy, we would have already crossed over to the human world.”

“That’s a bit strange. When I looked, some orcs who weren’t anything special were trying to catch people in the human world and eat them? How did those guys get over there?”

“Those are the ones who sneaked over on a small scale.”

The fortress isn’t some kind of omnipotent fortress either.

It’s possible for a small number of demons to cross over without being detected by the fortress personnel.

And these demons that crossed over appeared as enemies of ordinary players who started normally.

“But if you bring a large army and try to kill God, you’ll definitely be caught. The ones guarding the fortress are not fools, but very capable people.”

“Hmm.”

“What are you going to do about this? Do you have any ideas?”

It’s Seyul who’s invading the human world.

So Rimburn asked Seyul herself for a method.

Then Seyul thought for a moment and then.

“I do have one. But I can’t guarantee that it will definitely work. But should we at least try it?”

“If you’re going to try it, that means you’re going to go anyway. I understand.”

Rimburn lets out a deep sigh.

He was uneasy because she said it wasn’t certain, but Seyul is the Demon King now, so he couldn’t help it.

For now, he decided to believe in the method she was talking about.

“All troops, prepare!”

Rimburn, who came out of the Demon King’s castle with the demons, raised his voice.

“You all know the will of the current Demon King. According to his will, we will now attack the Ivar Fortress.”

“Only us? Aren’t we taking the lower-ranking demons with us?”
