Descent of the Demon God
chapter-207-30041322

Swoosh!

As many as two thousand demons were following a blue, silver-haired existence exuding a daunting force. He was the current Demon King, Taura.

The eyes of the demons, who were moving like an army, were full of fear as they headed to a battlefield.

‘Why are we doing this?’

They were all silent but shared the same question. About 20 high-ranking demons were absorbed by the Demon King in the castle and had instantly died.

The Demon King proclaimed that he would conquer Earth, and those who didn’t agree died.

‘Who is Larisha?’

The Demon King, who appeared after two thousand years, was full of anger about this ‘Larisha’ person; it seemed like a name they had heard of but they couldn’t quite figure it out.

One of the demons following the Demon King, Marquis Alchemir, asked a demon,

“How is the response to the call for conscription?”

The demon answered by checking something he was holding.

“Grand Duke Dordo, who is at the northern front, said he cannot take his eyes off Talisha’s clan so he politely refused.”

“And Grand Duke Kaliaf and Everdan?”

“Grand Duke Everdan began his march to the nearest Gate, but there was no response from Grand Duke Kaliaf’s side.”

“Huh. To be expected.”

Grand Duke Kaliaf was the one who confronted the Demon King’s closest aides after he had disappeared.

It was impossible for him to participate now. In the end, only the Demon King and Grand Duke Everdan, one of the three Grand Dukes, was going to participate.

‘Well, this should be enough.’

Marquis Alchemir thought so. He didn’t know why the Demon King was so enraged, but they already had amassed a ridiculous amount of power in comparison to the humans.

‘How long would this conquest take?’

With this power, they could conquer Earth in three days.

The only thing that worried him was Talisha’s clan. Although they had signed a non-aggression pact, they would still attack if the forces weakened.

‘Leaving two Grand Dukes here might be the move.’

Marquis Alchemir thought it was better, or at least safer, in the north and west. At the least he would be able to head down to Earth with some peace of mind.

“All done.”

The troop then reached the southwest side of the Gate. In the castle, Grand Duke Everdan and a thousand demon soldiers were waiting.

“Everdan greets His Majesty the Demon King.”

He fell to his knees, moved by the sight of the Demon King whom he hadn’t seen in long. The Demon King raised his hand coldly, not bothered by the Grand Duke’s actions.

“Where are the officers and guards?”

Originally, other demons were in charge of the device of the gate but they weren’t to be seen.

“When I arrived, the entire castle seemed empty.”

At Grand Duke Everdan’s words, the Demon King looked at Marquis Alchemir.

Perplexed,

“T-that…”

Not just Marquis, but the other demons couldn’t answer it.

Incredibly, what happened was that the night prior, Grand Duke Kaliaf had sent Duke Bevman to handle the Gate, and while Duke Edhuy was the only one who noticed it, he was killed by the Demon King when the Demon King woke up.

“Doesn’t matter. Open the gate.”

The Demon King, who made up his mind, didn’t care anything else.

“Haa.”

Nervous, Marquis Alchemir breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the large-scale Gate was able to be handled by the high-ranking demons.

Count Ditto, an assistant to the Marquis, operated the Gate.

“Highness Marquis, where on earth do you wish to move?”

At the question, he looked at the Demon King.

He couldn’t stop thinking of the Demon King’s recent rampage when he had mercilessly killed his own subordinates.

Marquis Alchemir, who was afraid of making the Demon King feel uncomfortable, whispered.

“Anywhere. I just need to head to Earth, so it doesn’t matter where”

“Got it.”

Count Ditto, who heard the Marquis’s response, placed the device down and saw that the most recent Gate connection was to Earth.

‘There we go.’

Count Ditto, who found it fortunate, opened the Gate to the same coordinates it was recently used.

Yongchun Group site.

Coincidentally, the Jinan City National Guard was currently there.

Due to the Gate that opened at the Yongchun site, the commander of the National guard had gathered an army there along with Chun Yu-jang was there.

“Do you really expect me to believe this?”

A middle-aged man with a mustache in uniform said. He was Cho Yun, the commander of the Jinan City Defense Force.

He should have been sitting at the headquarters but had decided to directly lead the army since nothing like this had ever happened before.

“Calm down, Commander Cho.”

Chairman Chun Yu-jang said, trying to soothe him.

Raising his hand towards the Yongchun site that still had traces of a fight, Cho Yun yelled,

“How do you explain this? Are you going to say that I’m not seeing things right?”

They were traces of the battle with Blade Six.

“Phew, this has nothing to do with the Gate. This is different—”

“Chairman Yong Yu-cheon! Is this a company or is it some private institute planning something secretly?”

Yong Yu-cheon was Chun Yu-jang’s pseudonym, as he planned to use his real name once the merger was finished. However, due to the recent turn of events, he didn’t change it just yet.

‘Look at him.’

Chun Yu-jang clicked his tongue. The Jinan Defense was dissatisfied with them because of their agreement with the National Defense. It was likely that the Gate was just used as an excuse to torment them.

“If that’s the case, then why don’t you talk with the director of the Ministry of National Defense for more details?”

“Ha!”

Ahn Woo-hong was the director of the Ministry and Commander Cho Yun was just a commander for Jinan city, so it would just result in his demotion if he did something wrong.

“Trying to intimidate us by calling our superior…”

The atmosphere was harsh, but then something unexpected happened.

Grrrr! Woong!

A thunder-like roar as well as bright lightning came from the sky. Everyone began to look up.

At the Yongchun site, a new phenomenon occurred: a huge black hole began to form and one of the National Guards ran to inform his superior.

“C-Commander! The gate is open!”

Even if he didn’t inform the commander, everyone was able to tell nonetheless. Looking at the Gate’s opening, Chun Yu-jang was flustered.

‘Is ancestor coming back?’

The timing was tricky, but unlike his shock, the presence from the Gate was unexpected.

Swoosh!

Thousands of human-like figures in medieval armor appeared through the Gate.

“Humans?”

Cho Yun’s face went stiff at the sight; the Gate had several Hazard-class Entities.

Among them, the strongest were the Special Entities who also were intellectually advanced.

“Special… entity?”

At first glance, it seemed like thousands of people were flying in, but such beings couldn’t be human. Commander Cho Yun shouted.

“Prepare for battle!”

“The entire army is ready for battle!!!”

At his command, the officers shouted!

Wheeing! Clank!

A mechanical device came down from the side of the 40 ZRV-30 tanks and surrounded the Yongchun site.

The 130mm caliber barrel went up and aimed for the Special Entity in the sky.

“Ready to fire!”

More than 2,000 men from the military trucks were down and ready to shoot their machine guns. Because they had come prepared for battle, their response was quick.

‘This is insane.’

‘But why here?’

Chun Yu-jang and the other members of Yongchun were confused. They thought that Chun Yeowun was coming back, but Special Entities had arrived instead, and thanks to that, Yongchun was now a battle site.

At that moment, they saw someone coming down the gate.

Woong!

The being was a beautiful existence with blue-silver hair, and when he appeared, the entities before bowed to him. Anyone could tell that he was the leader.

“it must be the Alpha!”

Commander Cho Yun was convinced that he was the Alpha, and no longer hesitated after figuring this out.

“All troops proceed!”

“Yes!!!”

As the order fell, the officers followed and shouted as the artillery and machine guns fired at the same time.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Dudududud!

The sound of guns blaring filled the atmosphere.

The site of Yongchun Group was covered in guns and tanks that resounded as thousands of bullets rushed for the thousands of Special Entities floating above the Yongchun site.

‘Win-win situation.’

Commander Cho Yun thought that this situation would take out two birds with one stone, as it could be resolved at the Gate entrance in the city and, if a war broke out, they wouldn’t be held responsible for Yongchun’s destruction.

But something unbelievable happened.

“C-Commander!”

“Over there!”

The officers seemed shocked. The countless guns and shots fired weren’t hitting them, as if something was blocking them?

Pssss!

“W-what the hell…”

The firepower, which could damage everything around, was stopped. If their bullets couldn’t reach their target, how could they do any damage?

There was one person responsible for blocking it.

“Ohhh!”

“As expected!”

The Special Entities, or demons, seemed shocked by it.

The blue, silver-haired Demon King had reached out his hand as a huge field surrounded them, neutralizing the firing.

“Such tiny beings.”

The Demon King looked at the tanks that were firing, as they were more annoying than the humans shooting. The Demon King held out his index finger and said,

“Disappear.”

Phat!

At that moment, a white light shone from the finger and penetrated the tank that was still trying to bombard them with bullets.

Kwaang!

The tank, which was pierced, exploded, but that wasn’t the end.

He used the finger-ray on each tank one after another and continued in a line.

Kwang! Kwang!

The ray from the Demon King’s finger exploded the tanks. Bewildered, the soldiers in the tanks began to run out of them.

“R-run away!”

“Jump!”

In an instant, the situation had changed, and there was no way they could stop the Demon King.

The tanks that were hit with the beam exploded and, and 50 of the tanks had now been destroyed in just seconds.

“W-what the hell is that?”

Commander Cho Yun and the others were at a loss for words. He and the soldiers had dealt with numerous entities until now, but this was the first time that such a thing happened.

It was the same for Chun Yu-Jang and the other executives.

“What is that monster?”

In the chairman’s office of Yongchun site, the demons who were looking at the sky through the window were shocked, including Shakena.

“H-how did this happen?”

“Shakena, are they part of your clan?”

Shakena nodded at Mun Ran-yeong’s questions. What made it weird was that the number of demons floating in the air was too much to count.

“What is this? Why is the Lord not coming? Why are they ganging up like that?”

Hu Bong bit his lip, looking at the demons.

Each of the demons had abilities overpowering most humans, and thousands of them appeared now. Even Hu Bong began to feel nervous.

“We need to stop them.”

Baekgi looking out the window said in a serious voice.

These demons couldn’t be stopped by the National Guards, especially that monster that wiped out the tanks with a light from his finger.

Mun Ran-yeong nodded, agreeing to comment and tried to move, but Shakena stopped.

“W-wait! Sister!”

“What is it?”

“Enough.”

“What?”

“If we don’t surrender now, all the humans here will die.”

At Shakena’s words, Mun Ran-yeong asked confused about the situation.

“What are you talking about?”

“H-he isn’t someone that any of us can handle.”

Everyone was puzzled at her frightened words. She was acting different from the usual Shakena they knew. Baekgi who noticed her strange behavior, asked,

“Who is he?”

In a voice full of fear, Shakena responded.

“The D-Demon King.”

“Demon King?”

Everyone was shocked at the title ‘Demon King’. If that was the case, then how would the captured demons feel?

Baekgi looked at the demons who were bound.

‘They are… afraid.’

All of them were in fear and horror. It was known how overwhelming the Demon King outside was.

Hu Bong spoke to Shakena, who was afraid.

“What are you afraid of? We have this.”

By this, Hu Bong meant the Golden Gumiho, the absolute existence that no one but Chun Yeowun could stp.

However, Hu Bong seemed puzzled by her actions.

‘What is with her?’

Unlike before, the Gumiho was looking out with a serious look, and her eyes were fearful and vigilant.

Hu Bong called her.

“Miss Gumiho?”

To that, she answered in a trembling voice,

“You all… should run away.”

“Huh?”

The golden Gumiho turned her head to Hu Bong and said,

“You might die here.”

The golden Gumiho was something that everyone in the world would fear. Unlike humans who couldn’t accurately guess others’ power levels, she could feel how monstrous the Demon King was.

He exuded an ominous energy that overturned everything.

“Isn’t it too early to say that without even trying?”

The Gumiho snorted at Baekgi’s words.

“You aren’t a match.”

The Demon King and the energy he exuded was so unbelievable that he could destroy the entire place with a single gesture.

She too was shocked at his power; she would be able to escape but the humans here wouldn’t be able to do so.

‘What do I do?’

The Demon King was the biggest problem, but the silver-haired man was trouble too.

Just looking at him, she was sure that no one could tackle them. The person she was thinking of was Grand Duke Everdan, who could be the Demon King’s successor.

‘If these ones die… Chun Ma will be heartbroken.’

Even in the fear, she was worried about Chun Yeowun. Grand Duke Everdan then looked at her.

“It’s too late.”

The golden-haired Gumiho said with a voice of despair.

Did the experts recognize one another?

Just as she guessed and evaluated their strength, Grand Duke Everdan noticed the golden Gumiho.

“Your Majesty.”

At Grand Duke Everdan’s call, the Demon King waved his hand as if he were annoyed, meaning that he would let the Grand Duke handle it himself.

“Thank you.”

Grand Duke Everdan smiled in joy and rush towards the Gumiho.

Paaang!

The Golden Gumiho bit her lip and shouted,

“Everyone run!”

With that, she threw herself out the window as her body was dyed in a golden light.

Woong!

Within the golden light, she grew from her human form and changed into a giant Gumiho.
