Chapter 724
“It is a nasty hobby... Nasty hobby...” John Blake watched Lebron fighting and clicked his tongue.
“What are you talking about, Duke Blake?” Hyeonu—who, like John Blake, was watching Lebron’s battle—suddenly asked.
“I don’t know if you can see it, but his attack is strange.”
Hyeonu heard John Blake’s words and looked carefully at Lebron. It was only then that he found the oddity in Lebron’s movements. Hyeonu hadn’t figured it out before this as he had been focusing only on the fact that Lebron was pushing the demon kings.
‘It is a test...’
Strangely, Lebron was insisting on executing only large attacks. Of course, the big attacks were powerful. However, even though they were powerful, the movements involved were large or the attacks took a long time to be executed. Naturally, this gave the opponent more time to deal with them.
‘He didn’t intend for it to be a critical hit in the first place.’
This brutal man was making small improvements by trying out the techniques he’d created on the demon kings.
‘The emperor... He doesn’t seem to have any thoughts on this.’ Hyeonu turned his head to look at the emperor. He was now watching Lebron fighting as if he had given up on his battle with the demon kings. In particular, the emperor smiled happily at his magic spirit’s continuous acts of cuteness.
‘Is he blinded by peace?’ Hyeonu wondered inwardly. That happy mood was an unbelievable emotional state for someone who had appeared to have been fighting for his life right until just a moment ago. If it wasn’t for his clothes that were about to crumble, it was hard to believe he had fought.
Just then, words to mark the end flowed from the emperor’s mouth: “Let’s stop joking around. I think this is enough for a test.”
“I understand, Your Majesty,” Lebron responded.
At the same time, his sword movements changed. It became concise, and that was fatal for the demon kings. Three beams of light crossed the air, and blood soared from the bodies of the demon kings.
Lebron continued to wield his sword. The demon kings also released magic power against him. However, Lebron’s sword sliced the magic power of the demon kings like it was tofu. The bodies that stood behind the magic power were slashed as well.
-By the way, are the demon kings supposed to be so weak?
-They can’t win three against one.
-In fact, they are just demon kings in name.
-They lost to the emperor and now to Lebron.
The viewers felt something was strange when they saw Lebron overpowering the demon kings. The demon kings were too weak.
“I don’t know about that. I don’t think there is anything strange about it.”
This time, Hyeonu found it difficult to give a clear answer. He could say that the demon kings were weaker than Lebron, or… that they had spent too much power in their battle with the emperor and thus couldn’t resist Lebron now.
That was all.
-Let’s just say that Lebron and the emperor are strong.
-It seems so.
-They win because they are strong.
The viewers nodded at Hyeonu’s words. In the meantime, the end of the demon kings entered their sights. Lebron’s swords covered the bodies of the demon kings in wounds. There were deep wounds and light wounds. All these wounds combined to crush the lives of the demon kings little by little.
[The demon king of eternity, Munas has been defeated.]
[Experience has been acquired.]
[You have leveled up.]
[All health and magic power are restored.]
[You have leveled up.]
[All health and magic power are restored.]
[You have leveled up.]
[All health and magic power are restored.]
[You have leveled up.]
[All health and magic power are restored.]
‘Okay, one has died.’
The first to lose his life was Munas, who had already used quite a lot of magic power in his fight against Hyeonu. He was no longer able to hold on after his battle with the emperor and the subsequent battle with Lebron. Thus, he lost his life.
[The demon king of eternity, Munas, has been defeated by Lebron.]
[The new demon king’s name is perpetuity. Lebron, the demon king of perpetuity, has been born.]
The moment Munas died, white words appeared in the sky. These words, which announced the death of the existing demon king and the emergence of a new demon king, covered the sky of the demon world. In the meantime, the battle continued to proceed.
The demon kings were reduced from three to two and took on a more defensive stance. Nevertheless, Lebron dealt them with a finishing blow. A sword that cut through moonlight without a sound… It was the secret technique, Cutting the Moonlight, that Hyeonu had struggled to learn from John Blake.
After passing through the moonlight, the sword succeeded in cutting off the heads of the demon kings. The heads of Baha and Wokiri floated high in the air before falling to the ground.
“This is the end,” the emperor muttered when he saw that. There was still an army of demonic creatures, demons, and nobles. Even so, the war was practically over because all of their leaders, the demon kings, had died.
“Everyone, I will end the stream here. I’ll see you again in two days.” Hyeonu ended the streaming the moment he saw the demon kings die.
The war was over, and all that remained was private work. He didn’t know what and how much he would receive. Nevertheless, he couldn’t show it to the viewers.
‘Once it is all over... I’ll turn it back on then.’
He told viewers he would see them on the next streaming day, but he didn’t really mean this. The war ended more blandly than he had anticipated. It happened because Lebron and the emperor were stronger than Hyeonu realized.
‘Time needs to be filled in...’
If it had been like before, he would’ve turned on his stream two days later. However, things were different now. As long as he was a full-time streamer, it was mandatory to live stream for more than a certain amount of time. It was courtesy toward the viewers who looked for him.
‘Of course, it is up to me what I am going to do.’
Nonetheless, it was entirely up to Hyeonu’s heart to decide what content to show on the streaming. With Tang-E and Gom-E sitting on each of his shoulders respectively, Hyeonu approached the emperor. One of the emperor’s shoulders was occupied by Tung-E, who was doing cute tricks.
“Your Majesty, how was the demon world?” Hyeonu spoke carefully to the emperor.
“It was a good experience. I don’t think it will be boring for the time being,” the emperor replied while looking at Tung-E sitting on his shoulder rather than Hyeonu.
“Then I’m glad, Your Majesty.” Hyeonu started to be confused about whether the emperor was referring to his experience in the demon world or the magic spirit.
Considering how the emperor was looking at the magic spirit with unusual eyes, it was hard to say the demon world experience was good because of the battle with the demon kings.
‘Does he like things like that?’ Hyeonu even wondered if the emperor’s taste was this cute.
The emperor looked into Hyeonu’s eyes and requested, “Clean up this place. I can leave it up to you, right?”
“I won’t leave a single living being of the demon world here,” Hyeonu replied straight away without worrying about it.
The emperor smiled when he saw the way Hyeonu spoke. “Then I’ll believe you. Once you’re done organizing it, come to the imperial palace. I will keep my promise.” Then he disappeared with Tung-E.
‘Items, pick up the items!’ Hyeonu jumped straight toward the dead demon kings the moment the emperor disappeared. It was to pick up the items that the demon kings would’ve dropped. However, Hyeonu’s expression darkened when he arrived at the place where the demon kings’ bodies had been before.
‘Why is there nothing?’
There was really nothing. Only the dug-up land proved that there had been a battle here just now.
“It is no use looking.” John Blake shook his head and clicked his tongue when he saw Hyeonu’s actions.
“What are you talking about?” Hyeonu demanded an explanation from John Blake.
The answer came from somewhere else though. Lebron recovered his appearance from before his battle with the demon kings and answered Hyeonu’s question, “Didn’t I say it before? His Majesty the Emperor... Alexander’s hand is nasty.”
“That... Does that mean everything is already stolen?” Hyeonu made a face like he couldn’t believe it.
Lebron drove the wedge in, “I’ve already told you, Disciple. Alexander’s hands are faster than his eyes.”
Hyeonu ran toward the remaining demon world army with an upset expression.
‘I have to get what is left.’
He firmly believed that the demons still remained.
***
Thump! A giant praying mantis was cut into hundreds of pieces by Hyeonu’s pure energy.
[The advanced demonic creature, the bellas, has been killed.]
[Experience has been acquired.]
The praying mantis that fell just now was the last remaining demonic creature. Based on this, the emperor’s last quest-clear condition was met.
[Annihilate the demon world army 1/1]
[End of the Demon World Invasion has been cleared.]
[Experience has been acquired.]
[You have leveled up.]
[All health and magic power are restored.]
[197,332 imperial contributions have been acquired.]
[30 permits have been acquired.]
‘30?’
“Good, good.”
Hyeonu checked the message windows that appeared as he put the items dropped by the bellas in his inventory. The rewards were satisfactory. It was good to level up, but above all, he received 30 permits. This was what he liked the most.
‘Based on this, he can definitely be raised to an earl.’
Hyeonu had gotten 15 permits from the last part of the main scenario. Then he got 30 this time, so the total was 45. This was enough to promote Kim Seokjung to an earl. He was certain of it.
‘If he can’t become an earl with 45 pieces... It will be unfair.’
He had 45 pieces. Even if there were many permits released in this main scenario, Hyeonu expected only between 300-400 pieces at most.
‘It is because I basically take 10%...’
Hyeonu took 10% of all compensation first, as he had negotiated with the emperor in advance. In addition, rewards were added if Hyeonu performed well.
Therefore, it wouldn’t exceed 450 no matter how many permits were released.
‘It is the end of the demon world.’
Hyeonu wanted to see the cheerful sky of the middle world, not the dark sky of the demon world.
***
This main scenario left behind many things. A new area, the demon world, was opened. Naturally, items and skills related to the demon world had also been created. For the Quency general planning team, it left something amazing—overtime.
“So what is the simulation result?” Park Hyeonjun, head of the general planning team, asked Choi Seongho who came with the paperwork.
Choi Seongho opened the paperwork and read what was written on the first paper, “Based on the actions, we have simulated it and expect that Alley Leader has a more than 90% chance of searching for the remains of the Luos Empire.”
“The remaining ruins of the Luos Empire are in the divine and middle worlds... Where do you think Alley Leader will go?” Park Hyeonjun asked while pressing a hand against his temple.
“I think the probability is half and half...” Choi Seongho gave the most correct answer. It was clear that Hyeonu would go to either the ruins in the divine world or the middle world.
“Then how should we prepare?” Park Hyeonjun asked as he leaned toward Choi Seongho.
Park Hyeonjun’s face received the light from the ceiling and looked even more intense.
“We need to complete the new implementation just in case...” Choi Seongho’s words trailed off vaguely. He knew it as well that his words were the beginning of overtime.
“Yes, that’s right. We need to implement the divine world. Right...! We have to realize it! What are you doing? Why aren’t you all gathering in the meeting room?” Park Hyeonjun’s ordered.
This caused the office of the general planning team to be filled with footsteps. Then he added, “Don’t dream of going home on time for the next month! If you want to do it, submit your resignation form!”
