Chapter 219 – Chapter 45: Demon King #6

In-gong opened his eyes. It was dark. Although the sky and the earth was dark, In-gong could see himself clearly; he was dressed in the white clothing he frequently wore in everyday life. He didn’t see any of the equipment from the elder dragons, such as White Eagle and Earth Quaker. Additionally, he was barefoot.

‘For sure…’

In-gong had used the power of Conquest to defeat Arch Lich Shutenberg’s black sun, and he couldn’t remember anything after that.

He thought he had died, but he then shook his head. His attempt to save everyone hadn’t been unsuccessful. Moreover, this space was very familiar to In-gong. It was the first time he had entered it, but he had seen it several times.

In-gong turned around slowly. As expected, a woman with white hair and a golden crown was standing before him.

It was the first time they had faced each other in this space. In-gong approached the white woman, who was slightly shorter than In-gong. She looked up at him with red and blue eyes, as In-gong had unknowingly arrived right in front of her.

“It is continuing. He is coming.”

There was fear in the white woman’s voice, and her shoulders trembled with anxiety. The white woman took one step toward In-gong, reaching out and touching his chest.

The forces of Conquest were communicated through the palm of her hand. In-gong’s and the white woman’s consciousness became connected.

In-gong closed his eyes reflexively, and he saw the Demon King’s Palace burning in the darkness.

The demon king wielded his sword. The heavens seemed to shake every time he moved.

The apostles of Death couldn’t receive the demon king’s sword. Only the Death Knight was barely able to meet it.

The demon king’s strength was absolute; his aura and magic power were beyond imagination. It was impossible for the apostles of Death to approach the battlefield itself.

The Death Knight felt both astonishment and wonder. The power of the demon king, Mitra, was the strongest among the previous guardians of the Sanctuary. He had expected the demon king to be strong, but he never imagined things to be like this.

The demon king’s overwhelming magic power dominated the whole space. The flow of the magic power sealed off all use of magic in the area. The demon king couldn’t use magic either, but it didn’t matter to him. His sword and aura exceeded his magic.

In-gong was watching the demon king’s fight, and naturally, he understood why he was seeing it. The powers of the Four Riders of the Apocalypse were getting stronger. This was one of Conquest’s lost powers, as she had originally been in charge of leading the four riders.

It was a situation where the demon king was superior to everyone else. However, In-gong gritted his teeth with nervousness. The demon king was rushing. He was suffering from a deep illness and couldn’t exert such power forever.

“He… is coming.”

The white woman said in a trembling voice. As the Conquest Knight, In-gong could feel it as well. The sky was beginning to turn red.

&

Recorder Torres had thought the red dragon had already vanished. He hadn’t been able imagine that a soul without a body could endure outside the world for such a long time.

However, Torres’ prediction had been misguided.

3rd Queen Sylvia gasped for breath. After exiting the transportation formation with her troops, she looked in the direction of the Demon King’s Palace.

The sky was red, and an unbearably ominous feeling filled her entire body.

She had picked the closest transportation formation, but she was still a considerable distance away from the Demon King’s Palace. This was a distance which couldn’t be narrowed instantly with magic power.

“Please, please.”

Sylvia begged while shaking her head to stop her tears from escaping. She had pretended not to know, but she had already guessed about the demon king’s illness. The magic power in Sylvia’s body sprang up energetically.

&

The dying War Knight killed Reinhardt. Her right arm was cut off, and her abdomen and shoulders were severely injured. Additionally, the armour wrapped around her body was almost completely broken.

She had fought hastily against Reinhardt, but War still smiled brightly despite knowing the War Knight was dying. After filling the broken body with the energy of war, the War Knight ran to where the Death Knight and the demon king was fighting.

The power of the demon king was enormous enough to be felt from a huge distance, but over time, the strength of the Sanctuary became weaker.

War shouted loudly towards the sky. Over the years, the War Knight had set magic spells all over the Demon World, and the result of this was the strongest light shining out from the Death Knight’s throne beyond the Northern Limit Line. The power of numerous sacrifices had been gathered in one place for many years.

The power called out angrily. This was a cry which could reach them. As a result of the Sanctuary’s barrier distorting, a crack started to appear in the red-tinged sky.

War was delighted, and the War Knight moved quickly.

&

The white woman cried out. He was coming. The red dragon was approaching outside the world, but he still couldn’t reach. The Sanctuary’s barrier was blocking him. However, it was only a matter of time.

Conquest didn’t want to perish. She didn’t want so many lives to burn again.
