The next day, Edward and I arrived in Windia with our troops. On the left and right, the Sylphid Knights, which were led by Kerenos, were escorting them. They were followed by carriages containing the black bones, leather, and horns of Belphegor that we seized.
For reference, it was decided I would take all the things that Belphegor left behind. It was because it would’ve been difficult to kill Belphegor if it wasn’t for Solar Phoenix. In any case, it wasn’t bad for me either. I accepted the favor of those who fought together with me. Drain would probably really like it if I gave them to him.
“You have worked hard, Jackson.”
“Earl, you have suffered.”
“Are you going straight to Metheus?”
“Well, not necessarily.”
“Then stay a bit. It has been a long time.”
“Hmm.”
Well, it was good. I turned my head back and gazed at those who came out of the carriage. Two constellations were getting off there. There was also Punghee who boasted white hair and youthful skin.
“......”
Cat Baker always complained to Tiarudo, who didn’t speak much. I was annoyed and put Punghee into the carriage. Fortunately, Cat Baker seemed very pleased to chat with Punghee.
“What do you want to do? You aren’t going to the Orca Kingdom immediately, right? Why not stay here for a few days and take a break?”
[Hrmm. Didn’t everyone decide to go together in 10 days? You also need to prepare your troops. Nyang.]
In any case, she was an impolite cat.
“Yes, that’s the case.”
By the way, Desperado and Raitra remained in the volcanic zone. It was said they would act as a deterrent to the demons and two demon kings there. I didn’t have much worries since Zhen Sulong said he would lead the members of the Forbidden City to help.
Park Maksun led the wizards and witches back to Oz, but said she could come back soon. Camille and Inumusiki had left for the East Continent. Surprisingly, the Zeus Guild followed them. Michael followed and Park Muyeol said it was good. Thus, he came along as well. In any case, they were preparing to go to the East Continent continent. After 10 days, we would attack the demon king simultaneously.
[Hmm, I’d like to go to Metheus as soon as possible.]
It happened at this time...
[Sniff sniff. What is this sm...ell?
Cat Baker’s eyes abruptly widened. She ran on all fours to cross the walls of Windia and ran inside. It was as fast as the wind. A short time later, Kerenos came back after following Cat Baker and gave a report. “I guess she smelled someone grilling fish. She didn’t pay for it and just forcefully ate. So I had to buy it with my money.”
“...Good job, Kerenos.”
Edward laughed with a dumbfounded expression. Then Kerenos spoke again, “Then I have no money now. Please give me a pay increase, My Lord.”
“I can’t do that.”
“Che.”
Kerenos’ efforts to raise his salary were in vain. Edward dismounted from his horse and ran to Punghee. He suddenly grabbed Punghee’s wrist and ran to the lord’s castle. No, what were they...?
“I’ll be playing in the flower garden with Punghee.”
“......”
Kerenos and I were the only ones left. There was also Tiarudo, the shield constellation, standing alone with the Sylphid Knights and other troops.
“Hmm~ Brother came faster than I thought.”
Ma Seokdu yawned as he appeared at the front gates. He had gone with the advance team to transport the wounded soldiers. There were members of the vigilante group behind him. I asked him, “I came a bit late because the soldiers are exhausted. Nothing much happened, right?”
“Well, there is nothing big. By the way, Brother, it is like you said. The melon slime noodles are amazing. Puhuhu. I ate very well.”
Ma Seokdu laughed while patting his thick belly. Park Muyeol and I had once told him about the melon slime noodles, a specialty in Windia. It seemed like he had eaten it.
“By the way, Brother, where is Sujeong?”
“She left.”
“Left? Where did she go without saying a word?”
“There is such a place. I won’t tell you.”
In fact, it was a lie. Kim Sujeong was actually hiding in the carriage right behind me.
“No, she is going to pick my constellation. Why didn’t she say anything...?”
What? Did this brat still not pick a constellation? Ma Seokdu kept complaining in front of me. In any case, he had a stone head just like his name.
“Our stone head, Seokdu.”
“Ah, Brother, don’t make fun of my name. My name is Seok (Clear) and Du (Head). It means clear head. It isn’t Seok (Stone) and Du (Head).”
“This or that. In any case, Seokdu.”
“What is it?”
I pointed to Tiarudo, who was behind me. “This is your constellation.”
“Huh?”
[......?]
Ma Seokdu and Tiarudo cocked their heads at the same time.
* * *
Time quickly passed and three days passed. We were still in Windia. Everything seemed to be going well. Metheus was upgraded to a city and new construction had begun. My alliance with Fortren meant trade had become very active. Therefore, the growth was fast. It was a remarkable growth in a period of time.
Additionally, Ma Seokdu became the Star’s Beloved of Tiarudo. I handed him the Star Piece. If one arm turned into ice when I used the Star Piece, then both of Ma Seokdu’s arms became ice and he could use them as a shield. The ice shield could be thrown like a boomerang and bounce between enemies. Ma Seokdu was originally a ranker and warrior so he was very pleased.
However, life was always like this. There couldn’t always be good things.
This was Windia’s castle. I was sitting in a room in Edward’s castle that was full of clouds while a man was sipping tea.
“It has been a while, Elder.”
“Yes. You seem to be very busy these days. Your face is a mess.”
“Haha. It is good to be busy.”
“You should take care of your health when you are young. If you collapse then what will your children do?”
“I will keep that in mind.”
“Drink the tea.”
“Yes.”
The guest who came was Joseph. He was currently very busy. Argos, which he ran, worked with Yoo Minseok to gain a wider intelligence network. He recently sent me a message that he was so busy that he couldn’t close his eyes.
“You came to me in person. It seems that you are in a hurry.”
Joseph sipped his tea a few times before making eye contact with me. Then he gently put down the cloud teacup.
“The cup is so beautiful.”
"Please don’t change the subject.”
“It isn’t a diversion. It really is very nice. Haha.”
“...You are a sly fellow.”
Joseph suddenly took a deep breath and slowly opened his mouth like he was going to get to the point, “Do you remember how I said the coordinates were in the sea?”
“Coordinates? Ah, yes. I remember. Did you say it was in the middle of the Atlan Sea?”
“Yes, that’s right. Some time ago, I sent a member of Argos there.”
“Then?”
“Um, I think things are a bit complicated.” Joseph’s brow furrowed to the deepest point possible.
I frowned in the same manner and asked, “What does that mean?”
Joseph sipped his tea once like he was trying to calm down. Then he carefully put down the teacup and told me, “There is a demon king there too.”
“......!”
* * *
At the base of the demon world, the demon king’s castle...
In the vast great hall, there was the small sound of something tapping. It was a place where the leaders of the ruined Parta Principality used to gather for a meeting. The seat where the chairman should be sitting had disappeared. Now there was only a throne made of bones. Lucifer sat on the throne and held his chin with one hold while tapping his other hand.
Tak.Tak.
Once again, the sound of Lucifer’s fingers tapping rang out through the hall.
[Lucifer! Will you keep doing this?]
[I want to get revenge on the humans who took my arm.]
Ashtar had two heads with completely different personalities. He showed anger and calmness at the same time. Lucifer glanced at Ashtar with an indifferent expression. Castor and Pollux, the former twin zodiacs, entered the demon world and were contaminated by powerful demons. They had four arms, two heads, one body, and two legs. Lucifer found it amazing as always.
[Ashtar.]
[What is it?!]
[What?]
It was very interesting that their way of answering was completely different. Lucifer found it absurd and laughed. He used to be the divine messenger only to turn into a lion when he was stained with demonic energy. So he wasn’t in a position to find it ridiculous.
[Just wait a little bit.]
At Lucifer’s words, Ashtar struck the ground with a large sword. There were small vibrations that caused the hall to shake. Ashtar was known as the god of fighting in the demon world and he showed the dignity of a demon king with this single movement.
[How long do I have to wait?]
[...Stop asking. Answer me, Lucifer.]
Lucifer’s mouth stretched out widely. It would be great if he could fix Ashtar’s impatient personality. No, it was impossible...?
Ashtar had gained the power of greed from the demon world. It was originally based on his natural personality.
‘Well, isn’t it okay to give a small hint?’
It seemed that Lucifer couldn’t hold back. He put down the hand holding his chin and stared at Ashtar with a particularly arrogant gaze.
[Ashtar, it is today.]
[What is today?]
[...Tell me in a way that is easy to understand.]
Just then, a sound rang out in the great hall. It was a small black scorpion. Lucifer picked up the scorpion in a manner like he was accustomed to it. He nodded like he understood and suddenly laughed as he crushed the scorpion.
[......]
[......]
Ashtar’s mouths closed at the same time.
Lucifer spoke, [Go to the North Pole, Ashtar.]
[The North Pole? Why?]
[What are you planning? Lucifer.]
Huhuhu. Lucifer gave a low chuckle.
[There will be a civil war in the Star Flow System.]
[......!]
[......!]
Ashtar was flustered for the first time. Once again, both heads alternately spoke.
[So why are we going to the North Pole?]
[Will they easily collapse because of a civil war? There is Lupeon, the king of constellations, on the other side. Our demons aren’t very good against him.]
Lucifer grinned.
[That is a very good point.]
Indeed, Ashtar had a point.
Lupeon, the god of stars and mercy, was the king of all the constellations. He was someone who even the zodiacs couldn’t overcome. Lucifer rose from his seat. He laughed with his peculiar arrogance and raised his yellow eyes. Through the shattered ceiling, the full moon could be seen.
Lucifer reached out like he was grasping the full moon. It was particularly noticeable that one of the claws reflected through the full moon had broken. Lucifer looked at the broken claws and his mouth widened in a grin.
[...Lupeon is dead.]
