9th Circle Lord

76 #76화 Truth2

The devil's explanation was simple.

"This broken world we live in shares the world with Naxanor. In other words, they're affected. This is why there's never been a war in the human world."

Dark waves flowing from Naksanor are affecting the broken world.

"I spread out a tent in the sea to reduce the impact as much as I could, but it wasn't perfect. Because it often crosses the Dead Sea."

Only then did Luther realize the secret of the Dead Sea.

"You're the one who created the Dead Sea."

"That's what happened. "The tent is a curse of darkness, so the sea is polluted."

It turned out that the Dead Sea was a kind of shield against the present world from Naksanor.

Luther, who was listening, questioned.

"If you could notice all the creatures that crossed, why would you let the Dragon go? The demon that came this time said that dragons were originally Naksanor's creatures."

"They have a defense.”

"Do they have a defense comparable to yours?"

"Yes, it's the same way you just did."

Luther immediately noticed.

"That's a summons."

"Yes, I have the ability to summon someone who is no match for you."

The devil kicked his tongue.

"I can't help it because we're all going to die together. I couldn't help but give up the west. Beyond the blade mountain range is their territory."

"Do you know that the people of this species have been harmed by them?"

"How could you not know, but there's no way. If I move, they'll summon the Naksanor. So I can't touch it.”

"So you were going to negotiate.”

"How did you know?"

"Thanks to Arnes, I inferred the situation. Were you willing to negotiate with the Dragon?”

"Yes, I tried to persuade them to remove the Naksanor's object. But they're cowards. I will never move."

Luther was lost in thought.

'That's so different from what I heard.’

The story of the evil spirit, the spirit king, and Dragon Cox combined and found two truths.

One is that dragons are harmful to this world.

And the other one is completely different from what the devil heard.

'This is a strange situation.’

There was a harvest, but there was also a load.

The fact that the dragon is an enemy has not changed, but on the contrary, I feel like I am caught in the heart of the devil.

I also understood why the devil, who is trying to implement the work on a grand scale, is trying to bet on himself.

Luther glanced at the devil.

"You're using me to get rid of the dragon."

The devil laughed at the sharp point.

"One quick wit."

"I guess Dragon doesn't listen very well. If you dare not accept your offer."

"You're a coward, but you're only proud. They're all clumped together, so no matter how hard I try to persuade them, they won't work. If you can't persuade me, I have to be intimidated, but in that case, I'm embarrassed because a lion came out when I died. In fact, I'm quite attached to this world."

"I can't believe it. About you, I heard that those who pretend to be gods of human religion receive death as a tribute in exchange for power. Isn't that right?"

"Did Cox do that?"

Luther smiled bitterly.

"You know everything.”

"His words are half right and half wrong. In the past, it was urgent."

"What's the difference between then and now?"

"There is no need for human death now. Because I'm in a certain state."

"Schedule status?"

"Yes, it's similar to God's situation if you know."

Luther nodded.

His ability to see for a moment was terrifying.

Therefore, there was no reason not to accept it even if you were proud that you were in the ranks of God.

'It wouldn't be strange because he's incapable of measuring combat power in the first place.'

The misunderstanding has been resolved, but that's all.

It was not important to be a god rather than to rule humans.

Luther agonized over the devil's suggestion.

"Do I have to get rid of the dragon?"

"In order to go outside, internal organization is essential. And if you get rid of the dragon, it's half done."

"The other half?"

"Who do you think it is?”

"Do you mean your men?”

"Right, they're out of my control. Someone's got to put pressure.”

"Isn't that something you can solve?"

"They were summoned by me and signed a contract. You must know the law, too, because you have summoned the Naksanor'

The summoner and the summoner cannot influence each other by force.Luther did not know that even the devil could not ignore the law of summons. 

"Even you can't break that rule?”

"If you break that rule, you're no different from being a god. And unfortunately, I'm not a god yet."

I didn't know there would be something impossible.

Luther solved most of the questions in his conversation with the devil.

And there's one last thing left.

Luther asked.

"I know you're trying to get rid of Dragon and crack him down, but why me?”

"You're the right person."

"I don't know. Just a moment ago, Annes is a great talent. Wouldn't it be better to leave it to her?"

Anes, who was loyal to the devil rather than himself, seemed fit to carry out his plan.

The devil shook his head.

"She can't. "To be honest, no one but you can do it."

"What's the reason?"

"As the broken world becomes isolated, everyone who knows already knows each other. It means he's been exposed, and as you can see from the experience of Anes, my men are stubborn and honest. If you point to a goal, you'll only look at one place.”

"That's a high-intensity thing."

"Right, there's no judo, there's no wit. I need an interval to fool others and I need to be active at times, but my trusted subordinates don't have it.”

The devil looked at Luther with strange eyes.

"And I'm very pleased with your recent observation. He acted skillfully depending on the situation and time and cheated on the other person. To be honest, it was touching. My men are magical, but they're not at all magical. But aren't you more than a demon?"

Luther was not pleased with the devil's praise.

It was like seeing a farmer who chose a cow that was good to eat.

Luther refused at a single stroke.

"No, I don't."

The devil grinned.

"First of all, listen to the offer."

"Your plan is to get rid of your out-of-control men like Georges, and to get rid of Dragons. I have no intention of risking my life."

"I'll show you how to be a god."

Boom!

Luther felt like a hammer fell on his head.

He looked at the devil with shaky eyes.

"God? Do you know how to be a god?"

"I didn't know at first. But after a few trials and errors, I found a way. I'll pass it on to you."

"Well."

Luther's eyes were deeply troubled.

The devil laughed.

"Hey, what are you waiting for? I'll teach you how to be a god.”

"Everyone's just looking for different things."

"Yes, but one day I'll die. What you want will eventually disappear."

"My life expectancy is infinite."

"He is confident based on the manna body of the nine circles, and if he does well, thousands of years will be over." In addition, over time, Naksanor's magic will visit. Are you confident in fighting against them?"

I was irritated by Luther's face.

There was no way out.

A way to get out of a bloody fight.

It's a mountain over a mountain.

His war is still not over.

The devil laughed.

"You must have made up your mind already. Your path is finally set.”

Luther knew.

Struggle. It was the only fate given to him.

Luther received what he had to do before he got a way to be a god.

"For now, internal organization comes first. I want you to clean up my troublesome subordinates."

"How many in all?"

"It's at least twenty.

"There's a lot.

"Maybe there's more to come.”

Increasing work is not what anyone wants.

Luther made an impression.

"What do you mean?"

"Some people who know I can't help it are agitating. In short, the wind of betrayal is blowing."

"Your load management is terrible."

The devil shrugged at the harsh criticism.

"I just didn't care about those little things. There's nothing to be desired if it disappears anyway."

"That's why I'm betraying my men. You're not very inclusive."

"It's intellectual quality to be young."

"Isn't that right?"

"You're wrong."

"You're stubborn.”

"Will it be you?"

Luther gave up his quarrel with him.

Even if you talk back, you don't look uncomfortable.

'You're having fun playing with me.’

Luther went to the main point because he had no intention of listening to his fun."Give me the list."

"I don't know."

"What else do you mean?"

"Annes knows. Ask her for it."

"Annes hates me."

"Get along with me.”

Luther looked at the devil with his eyes full of energy. 

He spoke sarcastically.

"This situation must be interesting."

"Yes, I feel like I'm flying."

"Let's hear why."

"I got you."

"What do you mean?"

"A competent load satisfies your superior's mood."

"Since when have I been your man?"

"What's the load? Do as you are told, and you will be rich."

Luther, whose father was Chi Minh City, thought deeply about returning the moment to the distant past.

That's how mean the devil was.

Luther hardened his face.

"Let me be clear about this. I'm not your man, I'm just cooperating."

"Don't you want to be the king's servant?"

"I just don't want to be under anyone."

"That's what Dragon Lord said."

"I can see why you did that."

I feel like the conversation is going off the surface.

Come to think of it, the devil emphasized internal organization but did not seem to value it.

Luther simply didn't understand what was wrong with him.

"The attitude is different from the one before."

"I told you, it's because of you."

The devil spoke seriously as Luther wished.

"You are much more competent than you think."

Luther's presence will resolve the troubles that have been plagued for thousands of years at once.

It is encouraging to finally find someone who will play the role of Luther for a long time.

With Luther, we can handle the men we couldn't touch and catch Dragons.

I couldn't help but be happy that the hole revealed in his plan was filled.

Luther shook his head over the devil.

"If I deal with him anymore, my blood pressure will only go up.’

It's as bad as not having a conversation.

Luther gave up on devising future plans with the devil.

Anes was healed a hundred times.

Luther asked.

"Now let me know.”

"What?"

"How to be strong, and how to be a god."

"I waited for that question. You have a serious problem right now.”

"Problem? Do I have a problem?"

"Yes, you have now made nine circles in the world of Lune. But the problem is that the essence is human. Even if the body is transformed into a manna, the essence remains the same, and it cannot handle mana. If you leave it like this, your body will collapse and explode."

Luther's expression hardened at the devil's point.

Collapses and explodes.

I couldn't understand what the hell it was saying.
