Descent of the Demon God

Other than Chun Yeowun, Shakena wasn’t scared of anyone else in the room.

She was outstandingly warlike, yet she trembled in the Duke’s presence.

She then noticed two beautiful white-haired men and women standing on either side of Duke.

‘Marquis Irene and Marquis Isaac!’

Just looking at those two, she could figure out who this Duke was: Duke Bevman, known as the White Storm, who was Grand Duke Kaliaf’s right-hand man.

‘Shit.’

She couldn’t even understand this. Two of the Duke’s men were Marquis and 20 of the 50 people were of Counts; it was no exaggeration to say that an enormous amount of monsters had gathered here.

‘Master?’

She looked at Chun Yeowun, who was still seated in the chair with his legs crossed and looked at the demons, acting very relaxed.

At that moment, the white-haired woman next to the Duke, Marquis Irene, opened her mouth,

“Papa, I think this is the right place.”

In her hand was a unique shaped terminal. When a beep sounded from the terminal, she suddenly looked at the cylinder on the table.

“There it is.”

In response, Marquis Isaac, who was to the Duke’s left, said,

“I knew it, Hagar did steal it.”

With that, he looked at Shakena,

“Is this your doing, Heart Hunter?”

As a woman known to be the strongest of the Counts, she was recognized at once.

“M-marquis.”

Chun Yeowun smiled at her timid character; it seemed like titles mattered profusely to demons. Seeing Shakena act so carefully was pleasant. On the other hand, Marquis Isaac looked at Chun Yeowun and raised his eyebrows.

A demon then came out from the crowd.

“Smiling? A trivial human is smiling at us?”

Having said that, the demon clenched his fist and approached Chun Yeowun to showcase the difference in power.

Marquis Irene suddenly spoke,

“Stop right there.”

“Huh?”

At those words, the demon paused and someone broke through the floor and appeared.

Bang!

“Who dares to enter my Lord’s place without permission!”

It was Hu Bong, who had a flaming sword in his hand. If he had walked another step closer, the demon would have been attacked.

Tak!

Two more people climbed up from the hole in the floor: Mun Ran-yeong and Baekgi.

‘I knew it.’

In the elevator they felt the numerous presences. Originally, demons couldn’t be felt, but since Baekgi had a suit made by the MS Group, even the smallest changes in energy could be detected.

Pak!

The two came up and stood beside Chun Yeowun, but that wasn’t the end.

Bang!

“Lord Chun Ma!”

Even Bi Mak-heon pushed into the door along with the other two secretaries, and even his disciple, Ark Young, came in.

-Rats have come.

The Golden Gumiho, who sensed something, told them and, thanks to her, they all entered the room right away.

In an instant, the situation became a huge confrontation. For the demons, however, humans were seen as bugs or livestock.

The demon who had tried to hit Chun Yeowun shook his head and stepped forward again.

“Whose safety are these bug-like humans–”

Slash!

“Kuak!”

Hu Bong’s sword met his throat before he could finish speaking. The bewildered demon had tried to avoid it, but Hu Bong’s sword split into five and stabbed him in the neck, shoulder and thighs simultaneously.

Tak!

Since his upper body turned, the hit was avoided, but both thighs were stabbed with the sword, causing him to fall back.

“Euk!”

The other demons looked at him without moving.

They all knew that this human was strong. One of the demons at the Count level came out laughing,

“Seriously. This is why you aren’t able to rank up.”

The demon who was hit by Hu Bong had the Viscount title. Then, a white light flashed from the Marquis Irene’s left eye as she said,

“Zakun, this isn’t your opponent either.”

“Huh? What is that supposed to mean, Marquis?”

“Your fighting power is 58,000. The red-haired man is at 98,000.”

Hearing her words, Marquis Isaac was shocked.

“Is that true?”

“Are you doubting my ability?”

Irene’s power was ability numericalization: the ability to analyze opponents and read their combat power.

It was extremely accurate because it analyzed the body’s internal body.

“Pretty good for a human.”

She was curious about Hu Bong, who had a higher power level than most of the demons. As soon as saw him, she looked at the powers of the others as well.

The first thing that caught her eye was Shakena’s.

“105,000? Heart Hunter, are you stronger than before?”

The last time she saw Shakena, her power level was 60,000, which alone was considered the highest number at the Count level. Then, she looked at Mun Ran-yeong.

“190,000?”

“What?”

At her words, Marquis Isaac’s eyes lit up. Since they were siblings, Isaac knew his sister’s ability well.

“A human with 190,000 fighting power?”

The highest ranked Count had a fighting power of 100,000.

Taking that into account, this human exceeded the top Count. At this level, she could be a lower Marquis too.

But what was surprising was the next person.

‘320,000?’

Confirming Baekgi’s power, she couldn’t announce it. This was insane even at the Marquis level; her brother also had a fighting power of 320,000 and was in the upper-middle-ranking.

Numbers were just numbers and things could change in combat, but this man was on par with Isaac. However, she didn’t say it because it would hurt her brother’s pride.

“Enough.”

Duke Bevman stopped her with a heavy voice.

“Ah, Papa.”

Her left eyes turned to analyze Duke Bevman’s power.

2.89 million. Overwhelming strength.

Immensely different from those at the Marquis level; no matter how strong humans were, they would never be able to defeat this man.

‘In front of Father, humans are just trash.’

The cruel reality was that the Duke could crush all of them alone.

“We didn’t come to do that.”

With that, he looked at Chun Yeowun.

“Human. You seem to be the head of this place. Give me the explanation for why the item that should be with Hagar is with—”

’!?’

As he talked, Duke Bevman looked up. Then,

Kwakwakwang!

The building shook with a loud roar. Eventually, the ceiling was pierced and someone broke into the room. With her left eye, Irene couldn’t see the people but saw numbers signifying their power.

[2,830,000]

[286,000]

Her face hardened. The moment she saw the numbers, she knew exactly who these intruders were.

“Papa!”

“I know.”

Phat!

Hearing her cry, Duke Bevman moved.

He rushed to greet the newcomers, who had incredible fighting power and intruded as fast as lightning. He just swung his fist, and caused the wind to push forward.

Chachacha!

The forty windows in the vice-chairman’s office shattered. The demons and even Chun Yeowun’s subordinates were pushed back from the wind pressure.

Prrr!

Duke Bevman’s fist was blocked by the intruder.

Flutter!

The wind revealed the face of the intruder who blocked Duke Bevman’s fist. Shakena saw the black-haired, tall, and exotic-looking man with his hood removed and yelled,

“Duke Ludwig!”

Duke Ludwig.

He was one of the four Dukes who was under the Demon King. Next to him was a blonde man in blue European clothing, Marquis Cawl.

Their appearance made the demons become alert. Since a strong man on the same level as Duke Bevman appeared, they were no longer hostile.

“So you were here, Duke Ludwig.”

Duke Ludwig didn’t respond to the words and looked at Chun Yeowun, who was still sitting in his seat, and said,

“Human, do you have Arisha’s Armor with you?”

Duke Ludwig was only interested in whether or not the weapons had gone into the demons’ hands.

The Grand Duke’s men had shown up sooner than expected, so he was becoming impatient.

“Arisha’s Armor?”

All of the demons were now interested in the confrontation because their purpose was Arisha’s Armor too.

“I see. So you have them, human.”

Duke Bevman looked at Chun Yeowun. His white eyes grew even colder.

Duke Bevman lifted his fist and tried to hit him.

But,

“No!”

Grab!

Duk Ludwig exerted a strong force to restrain Duke Bevman from moving before shouting his children and men,

“Catch him!”

“Yes, your grace!”

Phat!

Marquis Irene, who received the order, moved.

As a demon with the Marquis title, she had amazing speed. Unless, of course, someone interfered.

Pak!

Someone predicted Marquis Irene’s path in advance and blocked it. It was none other than Marquis Cawl, Duke Ludwig’s right-hand man.

Marquis Irene chuckled at his interference.

“I knew you would try to stop me.”

When she reached out her hand, spider web-like substance was spewed out from her 10 fingers.

Since he was too close, Marquis Cawl was swept up in the web.

“Shit!”

Pang!

When Marquis Cawl was forced to use his ability, Marquis Irene bounced back.

‘He’s much stronger than me.’

Her own fighting power was 280,000; in terms of numbers, it was small, especially against Marquis Cawl who was the best.

But that didn’t matter because he wasn’t her target.

Swoosh!

“You!”

Marquis Cawl noticed Isaac pass by him and tried to move, but Isaac was already in front of the sofa.

“Come here—”

Papak!

“Kuak!”

Someone kicked Isaac in the face. He was then hit in the shoulder, then the face, and then a couple more places. He staggered back from the successive kicks.

The one who kicked him was Baekgi.

‘He is able to handle Invisible Kicks?’

Baekgi was shocked by Marquis Isaac’s resistance, as he was only lightly pushed.

Baekgi, who was in his best condition, used his Invisible Kicks, but instead of being torn apart, his opponent was intact.

“How dare you, human!”

Full of anger from being hit in the face, Isaac turned to Baekgi. As a result, the demons under Duke Bevman began to move.

“Attack!”

“Only that one needs to be caught!”

They, too, were aware that Chun Yeowun was the one they had to catch.

“Who would dare to aim for my Lord?!”

As the demons moved, Hu Bong and the others stepped ahead of Chun Yeowun. This was the moment when the vice-chairman’s office turned into a warzone.

Chun Yeowun, seeing everything unfold, slowly got up.

“Human, run out!”

Duke Ludwig, who thought that Chun Yeowun wouldn’t win, shouted.

Outside the office were demons who were under his control, and he figured that if the human left, his demons would be able to handle the situation and recover Arisha’s armor/weapons.

However, Chun Yeowun didn’t care about the pandemonium.

“This is so funny. You all come into my realm and act however you want.”

Hearing Chun Yeowun’s words, the demons wondered what he was saying. Chun Yeowun declared,

“Kneel.”

’!?’

“Before I finish counting down from three.”

One of the Count demons who thought his declaration was absurd shouted,

“What nonsense are you spewing? Ha—”

Grab!

“Kuak!”

The Count who was shouting suddenly grabbed his core as the other demons didn’t understand what was happening.

“What’s happening with you?”

“Ack! My core…”

The core was the main weakness. If the core was damaged, the demon would die.

Chun Yeowun clenched the air in front of him.

“Kuaaaak!”

Swish!

Black smoke rose from the Count’s mouth as he crumbled into ashes. The others couldn’t hide their shock. Chun Yeowun said,

“Three.”

The countdown started. The two Dukes who were fighting thought this was absurd.

The humans, who were supposed to be insects compared to the demons, suddenly intervened and were able to control the flow of the war.

Duke Ludwig shouted,

“Human, we don’t have time for this! I can’t figure out what you’re thinking, but right now—”

Woong!

’!?’

Chun Yeowun’s body emitted a black haze: Sky Demon Energy.

As he gradually raised his energy, more Sky Demon Energy was being released.

Even Duke Ludwig couldn’t speak as the ferocious energy flowed out, which only made the demons more scared.

“Two.”

’!?’

Chun Yeowun kept counting. Hearing the next number, Isaac, whose pride was hurt, screamed as he ran,

“How dare you, human trash!”

“Huh?”

Shh!

“Uh?”

Beakgi, who confronted him, tried to stop Marquis Isaac from going any farther, but Marquis Isaac’s body disappeared. Marquis Isaac, who had the ability to move through space, was the one who brought the demons into this office.

Isaac disappeared and appeared behind Chun Yeowun.

Shhh!

“This is the price for not fearing us and—”

Swish!

Isaac’s hand sliced through the air, which was suddenly empty. Chun Yeowun, who had been in front of him moments before, disappeared in an instant as someone grabbed Marquis Isaac’s head from behind.

Grab!

“Kuak!”

He tried to turn his head and see who was holding him, but he couldn’t even move. He tried to move through space again, but,

Woong!

“Huh?”

His body, which should have moved, didn’t budge, as if it were fixed to this one point in space.

This meant that the person holding his head was also controlling the fabric of space and had interfered with his movement.

‘How?’

“You seem to want to die quickly.”

The voice was Chun Yeowun’s. Bewildered, Marquis Isaac tried to counterattack as best as he could.

At that moment,

Crush!

His head was blown off by a tremendous force, and he didn’t even have a chance to scream.

The demons were at a loss of words when they saw a Marquis-level demon taken down so easily.

‘No way!’

‘M-Marquis Isaac?’

Along with his sister, Isaac was known to be strong enough to be the next Duke.

His death was enough to ruin the demons’ pride. Chun Yeowun looked at them once more and said,

“The last chance. The last number: one.”

And he finished counting.

Kukukuku!

As soon he finished, there was tremendous pressure which distorted the space and crushed down the demons in the office.

The pressure was so strong that all the demons were forced to kneel at the same time.

“Euk!”

“Gasp!”

Thud! Thud! Thud!

They were all kneeling against their will. Their strength was too weak to withstand the force Chun Yeowun was exerting, and the only demons left standing were Shakena and the two Dukes.

‘How can a human have this much power?’

The Dukes thought the same idea.

Marquis Irene, who was also forced to kneel, opened her mouth with a shocked face,

“Pa… Papa…”

Duke Bevman looked at her with a puzzled face as she spoke in a terrified voice,

“T-that man’s…power is…close to…10 million.”
