The Player Hides His Past

Episode 501 Contradiction (2)

My head is so busy, I’m dying, just…!!

“I will politely ask for your forgiveness, my dear. This man’s life could not be saved in Antonium. “If I had hastened the preparation of the ‘incarnate body’ a little more… this situation would not have happened in the first place.”

Paimon, the Demon King of the Ninth Throne.

He is neither an ordinary devil nor an ordinary demon lord. A high-ranking demon king born in Kii, including the demon world. It is a being so transcendent that it is impossible to know how many worlds it has swallowed.

however.

“I didn’t mean to do this. The moment I faced you, my heart also weakened. It’s a shame, so there’s nothing we can do. Furthermore, I will also dedicate this incarnation to this man’s hometown. “I promise.”

…Why is he so low-spirited?

‘No, aside from the burdensome things.’

Paimon, is that really the devil?

‘Better than most people.’

It was to the point where such doubts arose.

Of course, he is not just a devil, but a high-ranking devil.

Considering that the stronger the devil, the more clever he is.

You can’t completely trust those words.

But did he catch something strange in my silence?

“Oh, I see.”

Okay.

Seongrak Yong.

No, Paimon lifted his lowered head and raised the corners of his mouth.

For some reason, that small smile seemed to contain a lot of meaning.

“You can’t trust the devil’s words. I understand, honey. Basically, the feeling of trust does not exist among the devil race. But I want you to know that not all devils know ‘pride.’”

What are you proud of?

‘Gaaaamhi the devil talks about pride?!’

Now all that’s left is for you to get scolded by Granfell, Paimon.

How strict is the pride of Granfell.

The devil can take pride….

Sigh.

‘…!’

Sudden action.

When Paimon lightly clenched his fist, blood poured out from his hand.

Is it the blood flowing from Yong Seong-rak’s body?

While I was shocked, Paimon added an explanation.

“You should know about the incarnation by now.”

I need to know.

But now I have some free time as a player.

I had a rough guess.

‘It’s definitely related to the Ten Seas.’

The prediction was correct.

“The power of the Ten Seas shakes a world just by revealing it and even stimulates beings in other worlds. Therefore, the Ten Seas like us need an incarnation that can operate without revealing the original body.”

If it had been nonsense, I would have questioned it right away. In any case, it was an unchanging fact that Yong Seong-rak’s body was used arbitrarily to create something called the incarnation.

‘…No, it makes sense.’

But I was convinced.

It was thanks to directly witnessing the formidable power of a high-ranking demon king.

Why not just go to Paimon without having to go far?

‘It was powerful enough to devour the Arcana Continent.’

What about Baal, who destroyed the continent that was raised with one arm?

Needless to say.

So, my mind couldn’t help but be confused.

“If your brain surpasses intelligence and is comparable to that of a wise man. I think you have already figured out its structure by looking at my incarnation. “Then there is no need for me to add an explanation.”

What is it really?

As if taking me on a plane.

Because it’s not enough to rate it highly.

“And through such an incarnation I swear with my blood.”

Are you even taking an oath that you weren’t told to make…?

Is this not a deception of the devil?

I couldn’t believe it either and kept doubting it.

However, even with the sense of a demon hunter with [natural enemy relationship] activated.

There was no sense of deception or malice in Paimon’s words.

even.

[The demon king on the 9th throne, Precious Paimon, suffers the status abnormality ‘Oath’. If the oath is broken, the honorable Paimon, the demon king on the ninth throne, dies.] They

have even certified a system that does not lie…!

If it only occurred to me, did I fall for Paimon’s trick without even realizing it? I would have at least suspected it. The murmur around me makes me understand the situation.

“What are these mosaics?”

“Did you get a message too? What is it about?! “Are you the same as me?”

“Yes, an oath occurred. “If I break it, someone will die…?”

Just as an ant cannot tell what an elephant looks like. Those who have not reached the level of the Ten Seas cannot even see the Ten Seas properly. Players with a system are no exception.

‘Because there was a time when I couldn’t see anything outside.’

At that point…

I thought it was natural to let down our guard at this point. An attitude of honestly acknowledging one’s mistakes, reflection, and even post-processing.

‘It’s just a standard apology.’

The Paimon in front of me is a devil.

Because it was so unbelievable.

However, there was no time to actually talk to Paimon.

“Lee Ho-yeol.”

Rox called me.

I looked into Rox’s eyes.

It must be an effect of [Corruption].

The pupils were stained black.

Perhaps thanks to that, Rox seemed to have witnessed it properly.

“In the end, you too were a hypocrite.”

You hypocrite.

It might be misunderstood.

Rox, because you don’t know the story of me and Paimon. It must seem strange that I am silently listening to what Paimon says, and that Paimon even bows down to me and makes a pact.

“As expected, you were the same.”

But did you know, Rox?

Suoooo.

The flapping devil’s wings.

Malice rising from Rox.

At the same time, negative energy is concentrated towards Rox.

For me now.

He is a mixed-blood demon even more so than the high-ranking demon lord Paimon.

Still, you are half human.

That he is seen as a much more vicious devil.

‘Is the exorcism ritual effective?’

Since it was [Corruption] and not [Possession], I couldn’t be confident in its effectiveness. No, it was confusing to begin with. This situation itself, where Rox is facing the real demon Paimon in front of him.

‘If you think about it….’

Actually, Rox would be a decent person.

Children who were not devils but were more vicious than devils?

Because there were so many that it was hard to count them.

however.

My worries did not last long.

It was because my vision was blinking.

‘…This?’

*

Wiggle.

Blood vessels throughout the body twitch. Consciousness becomes blurred and the senses become maximized. Rox thought. Is this the new [Hero] power I will acquire?

‘You finally acknowledged me, Arcana.’

The fact that I am flying freely in the sky at this moment is thanks to the power of a warrior. The class quest has already judged me as a [Hero] and is providing me with that ability.

…flapping.

But it was all Rox’s mistake.

Because what was floating through Rox’s veins at this moment was the power of mixed blood. However, Rox did not have time to even look at Arcana’s system message, which did not lie.

[Your blood becomes more and more cloudy.]

[The status abnormality ‘Confusion’ occurs.]

[The status abnormality ‘Confusion’ occurs.]….

“Lee Ho-yeol.”

Sreung.

Rox raised his beloved sword. A change has occurred in that hand as well. The right hand holding the sword grew rapidly like a devil’s arm.

Effects of confusion.

But Rox was looking in only one direction.

Quest objective.

And it was Ho-yeol who made a pact with the quest target, ‘The Worst Devil’.

Rox gritted his teeth.

“From now on, it is I who is asking.”

“Right.”

“Because your answer will make my sword and the warrior’s sword move.”

It was a clear warning.

Lee Ho-yeol.

There was no change in his expression.

…Suddenly.

That consistent attitude got on Rox’s nerves.

It was because for a split second, he compared himself to Ho-yeol.

How can you do that, Lee Ho-yeol?

The answer emerges from my clouded mind.

okay.

I see.

“I finally found out why.”

“I’ll listen as much as I want.”

“Don’t urge me arrogantly.”

Rox’s hand holding the sword swells even more.

“You were not without blood or tears.”

“?”

“You didn’t have a human heart in the first place.”

Swaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

“You can’t understand other people’s pain or sadness!”

Rox rushed towards Hoyeol.

I hear someone’s voice urgently calling out to me.

But it doesn’t stop.

Lee Ho-yeol made a pact with the worst devil.

He also achieves the class quest goal.

Because I was convinced that it would be an obstacle.

bang.

With the sound of air exploding.

Rox’s sword strike was blocked in midair.

To be exact.

“Yes, your unwavering expression even in these situations is proof.”

A different level of magical power.

It has not even gone through the process of exploratory interference expression.

It was just pure magic that blocked Rox’s sincere sword attack.

“Rox please…!!”

“what? Is that crazy? “What are you doing, Rox?!”

Camilla collapsed.

Leonie is embarrassed.

The conical hat speaks to Jessie, who has a stern expression.

-It’s an overwhelming gap.

The attack was blocked solely by the release of raw magical power that did not undergo any magical process. If we consider this Chief’s manifestation power, which is unprecedented even in the Magic Tower.

-If this is the chief, he will be slaughtered even with basic magic.

This meant that there was no need to talk about low-level magic.

…Jalgeun.

So Jesse had no choice but to bite his lip hard.

Rox has already been demonized due to [Corruption].

As I said, it was because Jesse knew.

The passionate lips slowly open.

“I knew the meaning behind that sword strike.”

Ho-Yeol’s mercy has never shown the devil.

“Hehehe.”

In such a situation, Paimon burst out laughing.

I never thought I would see a sight like this.

It was worth it to bow down to you and apologize sincerely.

‘I can’t contain my excitement.’

I can’t wait for the day when you enter the demon world.

The devil of the ten thrones.

Because we have lived for eons.

I was able to look into the future through the landscape I was contemplating.

At this moment, all Paimon was looking at was Hoyeol.

So, at the same eye level as you.

It wouldn’t be a bad idea to consider it from your situation.

‘If it were you I know…’

I wouldn’t show you the slightest mercy either.

They say he’s a half-blood devil.

Even if the human heart remains.

Because to you, the devil is just a devil.

“That’s what excites me.”

The corners of Paimon’s mouth rose even more.

Paimon felt the negative emotions floating around Seoul.

Indeed, this land was more desirable than the Arcana continent.

The sad, miserable, and confusing negative energy was spreading beyond this city and spreading throughout the world in real time. Paimon looked at the sky.

To be precise, I looked at the magical eye floating in the sky.

‘Baal.’

If it were a world like this, I think you would have no choice but to covet it, right?

Just as he had spread his magical arms across the three continents.

But unfortunately.

‘I have no intention of backing down as quietly as I did then.’

Now that you are here, I am not alone.

Paimon’s admiring gaze swept over Hoyeol.

My dear.

How much of an impact your current experience will have on your future self.

You wouldn’t know.

“Still, there is nothing to worry about.”

Paimon’s eyes darkened.

“Because I will watch over everything.”

However, not until Paimon’s solemn resolve was in vain.

It didn’t take long.

Because I soon realized it.

Suddenly, I felt a foreign body in my hand.

“…?”

Paimon opened his hand in response to an unfamiliar sensation he had forgotten about. Beads of sweat were forming on my open palms. Because it is an incarnation made from a human corpse, it does not feel any sense.

‘hot…?’

Because the incarnation was not made from a low-level curse. That’s right. It meant that even if Paimon’s own body was here, the situation would not have changed.

‘…I’m feeling the heat?’

This was the moment when Paimon figured out the cause of the sweat in his hands.

Hoyeol opened his mouth.

Those were words that Hoyeol did not say in Paimon’s predicted future.

“I see.”

…no way?

“Shining.”

A merciful voice follows.

“You wanted to be the light, Rox.”

Light Paimon’s face distorted at those words.

.

.

.

[There are participants in your ‘exorcism ritual.’]

Exorcism ritual.

In my contradictory consciousness.

It was the fire that guided me.

A vividly burning green flame.

Yes, you must have had the same struggles as me.

No, I must have experienced that agony myself.

They were Akshan seniors from hell.

[Class Quest: Are we still devils?]

Grrr!
