The heavens and the earth are falling apart.

It was a perfect word for this scene.

“Khaaak!”

“What nonsense!!”

The ground splits apart.

The deep valley that forms between them swallows everything up.

“That…that’s…a meteor..?”

“You pathetic bastard! There’s no way that many meteors can fall!

The sky is falling.

It was as if the day of destruction had arrived. Fragments of disaster were constantly falling from the sky.

A great number of demons.

They were flooding in as if they would swallow everything.

In the midst of a huge natural disaster, they were struggling only for survival.

Massacre. No. Extermination.

Melum was greatly perplexed at the sight of the massacre.

[Magic beyond the realm of cognition… Could that girl be a dragon?]

At first I thought he was just a powerful wizard.

This level of large-scale magic was not something a mere mortal could wield.

The realm of the transcendent. Among them was the power of the dragon, known as the master of magic.

Why is there a dragon here?

[…I guess I’ll have to help out a little and then get out.]

The opponent’s power far exceeded his expectations.

I thought I only had to watch out for heroes and warriors.

But isn’t the previous Demon King attached to that side?

Isn’t the presence of a natural disaster scattering vast magic?

Even the black-haired woman who was said to be weak had a power that could not be ignored.

[Arise, you dead.]

The demon race was wiped out by the being of natural disaster.

At his call, one by one, they rose again, creaking.

An undead that acts solely on the basis of thought.

But in a fight, nothing is more suitable than this.

[good.]

At his command, they immediately approached the dragon.

Even though it wouldn’t be eaten anyway, if I kept reviving it, it would be over.

That’s when Mellum tried to find another group of corpses.

“It’s a sphere.”

Someone stopped Mellum’s body.

What I hear is a young voice that doesn’t even look like an adult yet.

When Melum turned his head, what caught his eye was a girl with purple eyes and hair.

One of the people who was clearly in the enemy camp.

But I remember it wasn’t a power that needed to be greatly concerned about.

Melum looked at the girl with a leisurely smile on his face.

[Kuhaha..you b*tch. Did you come here to die?]

Despite Melum’s murderous voice, the purple-haired girl, Ariel, opened the magic book with calm eyes.

“How about we fight amongst ourselves?”

As she finished speaking, numerous flames began to fly towards Melum.

[confederate?]

Melum laughed inwardly.

Of course, he himself, who is called the Immortal King, was also a wizard at heart.

Even though it is black magic, it is ultimately a type of magic.

Judging from the mana flowing out of the girl, she must be a magician too. In a way, you could say they are of the same type.

However.

[How dare a mere mortal call himself a peer of this immortal king, Melum!]

When Melum let out a loud scream.

Ariel’s magic was instantly destroyed, and in return, numerous stems began to sprout towards Ariel.

Ariel was unable to dodge, perhaps because she was flustered.

Eventually, her whole body was bound to the stem of the melum.

“……”

[Kuuu… That stem is a plant that absorbs life energy. What do you think? Does it still look like a similar species?]

Choo-aak-

With the sound of something rushing.

Where the stem was wrapped, Ariel’s flesh began to dry out and lose its vitality.

Her life force was being absorbed by the Melum whose stem was touching.

Ariel’s body gradually changes into the shape of bones.

But despite that, Ariel’s expression was still calm.

“I told you, we’re the same kind.”

With Ariel’s words, the flow of life that was flowing towards Melum.

In an instant, the situation changed completely.

[Yes….yes…no way…..]

Immediately, life returned to Ariel’s body.

On the contrary, it was Melum’s side that started to change.

Mellum’s bones began to slowly decay.

[Hey, you learned black magic!]

At Melum’s scream, Ariel let out an evil laugh and dropped the spellbook to the floor.

An ominous magic book with an upside-down cross.

“Answer the summons. Baphomet. ”

[what?]

A large magic circle appeared where the magic book fell, and a creature appeared there.

A human body and bat wings. And the ends of them.

It was a strange creature with a goat’s head.

[Huh… how could this be… did you summon an ancient demon?!]

A being that even he, the pinnacle of black magic, is reluctant to summon.

devil.

Just looking at it made my whole body scream in fear.

“Mr. Baphomet. The price for summoning is the Lich that has lived for thousands of years. ”

[That’s so unreasonable! The ancient demon takes the life of the summoner! You can’t do it for your convenience-]

The goat’s head slowly turned back to Melum.

As he gazed into its creepy and strange eyes, Melum took a step back.

[W… No way… The contract was signed?]

The devil raises one hand.

[No!! I can’t die like this!! Furthermore, I, the pinnacle of black magic, can’t die by black magic-!!]

Melum’s body turned to ash in an instant.

Soon his voice was nowhere to be heard.

“Kuaaaa …

Lycan couldn’t understand this situation.

– They’re all in the traitor’s castle now. Just go there.

The Lord clearly said.

– What are you worried about? At best, there are just a few weak humans. This side has thousands of demons?

Our demon army never gets tired.

– Besides, you are the strongest demon lord that I acknowledge.

He said he was invincible.

– Go and show them an example!

We are the ones who will win this fight. The Lord of the Marsh said clearly.

But what is this?

“The power of the demon is truly amazing.”

Former Demon King and Traitor. Every time Arbes swung his demon sword, he was pushed back.

I looked around, breathing heavily.

His own army boasted overwhelming numbers.

His own army, which should have led the world to destruction.

They were being slaughtered by less than ten women.

Of course, it’s not like I just got hurt.

No matter how strong you are, you are still human.

Clearly, several attacks were successful.

He put his sword into the hero’s leg.

The warrior’s hand was cut off.

It was a valid hit, although not fatal, and would have been effective enough.

But the saint.

That fucking woman was undoing everything.

If you get hurt, just treat it right away.

But it was not possible to catch the saint.

Right next to her stood a black-haired woman, standing firm.

Above her, there was a natural disaster guarding the surroundings.

“Kaaah!!”

“Where.”

As he swung his axe in anger, his axe and the demon sword collided with a large shockwave.

The Demon King frowned with his hands shaking slightly.

“..My hands are numb. I don’t think I can do it with just force.”

“Don’t be so arrogant! I am the representative of the Lord. I will conquer this generation-”

Crunch-

The alien sensation in my throat made it difficult for me to speak properly.

Let’s look back slowly. What catches our eye is this.

“Are you here to duel? You can’t take your eyes off the war.”

An ashen-haired warrior looking at himself with empty, dead eyes.

As soon as she came into view, blood began to spurt out of her neck like a fountain.

“Keuh-eok!”

But maybe the warrior made a mistake. The cut wasn’t as deep as he thought.

But a terrible sensation came over my body.

For a demon lord like me, this level of suffering is a luxury.

Moreover, for someone who had inherited the power of the Demon God, this was a wound that would heal in an instant.

“Kyaaak! I’ll kill you all!!”

He swung the axe with all his might.

My heart burned with the determination to crush them.

Perfect power of oneself.

But still.

His attacks did not have any effect on them.

“This…this!!”

I had an instinctive intuition.

He already had a gut feeling that he had been defeated by these monstrous beings.

“Why!! Why do I have to lose!!”

I was chosen by the Lord.

It was clearly he who had to lead the whole world to destruction.

Why on earth?

Why should I be the one who loses?

“Why?”

I briefly closed my eyes in deep frustration.

The warrior came under him at a speed that was too fast to be seen with the naked eye.

She looked up at him with purple eyes that were so fierce that they were almost terrifying, not even showing a shred of light.

“How dare you say such nonsense to my sister. Did you think you’d win?”

“What is that..”

Crunch-

Unlike when he cut off the neck, the warrior’s sword strike entered perfectly.

The swordsmanship was so refined that I didn’t even realize I had been cut for a moment.

“Damn. I should’ve cut off the finger first.”

For a brief moment, I felt an emptiness in my arm.

His left arm, neatly severed, fell to the floor.

“Kyaaak!!”

I held my arm in pain, but the bleeding still did not stop.

Originally, it would have been regenerated by the power of the demon, but because it was cut by the holy sword, its speed was significantly reduced.

“This…this level of injury..!”

But the arm is clearly regenerating little by little.

I was thinking that if we don’t give up and keep fighting, they will be the ones to get tired someday.

“Ah. It’s playing? That’s really fortunate.”

The warrior was looking at himself with a big smile on his face as if he was really happy.

“Yes..you..”

As I looked into her eyes, my body was gripped with fear.

How can such an evil being be a warrior?

“Is it going to keep playing? I wish it would. Please, please, please.”

A warrior who raises the holy sword high and laughs brightly.

The sight that came to mind after that was…

It was his own body disintegrating into countless pieces.
