I Became the Heavenly Demon of the Academy

Asmodeus (2)

“It’s not too bad either.”

In the slowing world, Asmodeus’ voice sounded like it was stuck in Carol’s ear. It seems that only one person is swimming in a different time axis. Asmodeus looked at the sword attack, which even Gram, who was a count, could not properly react to, and smiled.

“It’s to the point where I doubt if he’s really human.”

With a gentle breeze-like gesture, all the mighty experience contained in the black lightning was dissolved and scattered, leaving only fragments of energy in the air.

From the first time he saw Asmodeus, Carol immediately gave up the idea that he could end it in one blow. The energy contained in Asmodeus’ small body was not lacking at all compared to the dragon that resonated with the entire royal capital of the Resavik Kingdom.

“It’s not bad to be so bold.”

Asmodeus stretched out his hand with a bewitching smile. Red flames, like hellfire, burned and covered the entire royal capital. Like dragon magic, there was no need to memorize casting.

“Do you know why magic is called magic? In the first place, human magic was born by imitating us.”

In the middle of the burning flames, Asmodeus giggled.

“You talk a lot every week. Do you fight with your mouth?”

“It was a long-awaited meeting, but if it ends in vain, isn’t it fun?”

Saying that, Asmodeus soared into the air.

Rather than flying, like Lee Hyeong-hwan, he jumped into space and ascended high into the sky without even realizing it.

An enormous energy whirled above the hand of Asmodeus floating in the sky.

The ominous magic unique to the demons quickly engulfed the space and even reached Carol. Hundreds of wings made of pure white light fluttered behind Asmodeus’ back.

‘It’s terrible.’

Rather than being beautiful, it was like tentacles, causing physiological disgust.

Anger – The red demonic spirit and tentacle-like wings protruded forward and aimed at Carol.

‘I have to break through.’

Until now, Carol hadn’t been pushed back much. Even now, the speed itself was able to cope with it sufficiently. It was difficult to gain the upper hand against Asmodeus’ massive offensive. If the dragon had just run amok with its mighty power.

Each of Asmodeus’ attacks was like a sharp blade. The terrifyingly condensed magic was at a dangerous level, even for Carol.

“When will you despair? What can I do to make you despair? When that time comes, what will you look like? Shall I beg for your life? Aah… you can’t defeat me just by dodging like a rat.”

Asmodeus’ sadistic taste was famous even in the underworld. Especially when there is a target that I like, it becomes extreme.

So while the demons were in awe of Asmodeus, there were many cases in which they harbored fear in their hearts. Compared to other demons, he was generous in sharing his power, but the moment he got it wrong, he fell into an eternal slave.

“mouth.”

Carol uttered a word and immediately rushed at Asmodeus using the air as a springboard. The reason Carol had been dodging until now was to observe Asmodeus’ attack.

Wearing a thick self-defense flag on the front, he received all of Asmodeus’ attacks and rammed the black lightning into Asmodeus’ mouth.

Missing Carol’s explosive movement for a moment, Asmodeus’ head split in half starting from his mouth.

Even though his head was obviously blown off, Asmodeus immediately moved backwards through space, returning to his original state.

‘also.’

It was not a fight that could be won simply by slitting the neck. It didn’t seem like he had a separate body like him, though. Based on the movement of the aura, it seemed to be some kind of magic.

‘but.’

It was thought that Asmodeus had an excellent talent for granting magical immortality linked to the earth to the demonic dragon.

“Ah… yes, this is it. this strength.”

Asmodeus twisted his body, licked his lips with his red tongue, and looked at Carol. I couldn’t even think of the dragon that Carol had already annihilated. It was a pity that it could not be saved again because it went extinct, but the dragon itself was special, not ‘one individual’.

It was the same with the dragon that Asmodeus possessed. Just one of the common dragons. Special, but not unique.

On the other hand, what is Carol’s appearance now? He had reached a level so high that he couldn’t believe he was human. Even Asmodeus, who had lived for a long time, saw such a ‘human’ for the first time.

An existence born miraculously among as many humans as cockroaches. The individual ‘Carl’, not a species, was special. That was definitely ‘unique’ throughout human history. It was special and unique.

If only I could have Carol in its entirety.

It was hard for Asmodeus to calm his excitement at the endlessly expanding delusion.

‘What a crazy b*tch.’

Of course, from Carol’s point of view, it was nothing but absurd. No matter how much he is a demon, he is more outspoken than a prostitute.

Throughout the fight, he continued to scan Carol with a sticky gaze.

Even if even one place was smashed by Carol’s attack, instead of suffering from pain, she shuddered with an ecstatic expression as if she had reached her climax.

Or there was a possibility that such an attitude itself was a kind of mental attack.

To break people’s composure.

Kwaaang-!

Carol and Asmodeus constantly clashed and began to ruin the relatively intact royal capital.

Flashing black lightning struck the red curtain condensed to the limit. Just as Carol was wearing a self-defense flag, Asmodeus made a circular sphere and locked himself in.

‘Picky.’

The enemies Carol dealt with were often lacking in skill, rather than lacking in strength. But Asmodeus was different. That red curtain was enduring all of Carol’s attacks.

Even if you attacked through that, it immediately recovered with its powerful regenerative power. Asmodeus’s regeneration was hard to see as ‘regeneration’. If you want to fly a lot of meat pieces, at some point it will appear intact from a distance.

It was also impossible to collapse the mind with pain. Rather, he seemed to enjoy the pain inflicted upon him.

“It’s just not fun after all.”

Inside the red sphere, Asmodeus pursed his lips. Carol didn’t bother to answer. Giving attention to those who craved attention was rather counterproductive. What Carol was aiming for now was to find out where Asmodeus’ ‘immortality’ came from.

“I saw you fighting on the way here.”

Asmodeus suddenly spoke with respect and said in a soft voice.

“I pretended not to, but you were quite zealous in protecting humans.”

Damn it-

Carol’s single blow shattered Asmodeus’s entire curtain and split his body horizontally. The body, which had apparently been spewing blood and split open, was immediately attached.

“I was curious about how you would react if everyone outside died, and if you went beyond that and killed the people you care about one by one.”

“Does not matter.”

Carol spat out the words while staring at Asmodeus, who was smiling gleefully. He tried not to respond, but Asmodeus dug into Carol’s sensitive part.

“really? Hmm…”

Asmodeus, who was thinking hard about something, collected the spheres in an instant, gathered them into one point, and shot them in the direction of the Crusaders.

“It’s messy.”

Ignoring the sphere, Carol immediately rushed in front of Asmodeus, who was floating in the air, grabbed his head and threw it to the ground.

The orb fired towards the Crusaders obviously possessed enormous power.

“Lungs open!”

It was blocked by the blue wall that arose with a clear voice and disappeared.

“That… can’t it?”

The smile disappeared from the face of Asmodeus, who had been laughing leisurely until now. It was definitely dragon magic.

“The dragon must have all disappeared, right? No, it’s not a dragon.”

Asmodeus let out a small sigh. If it was an adult dragon, even Asmodeus couldn’t be so relaxed. I don’t know how he used the dragon word magic, but after realizing that it wasn’t a dragon, Asmodeus smiled again.

“Every week, every week. If there’s something you want to do, do it. If you can.”

Non-humans try to dig into the weak parts of humans. If you care about that, you could lose everything you want to protect. The more I actually had a weakness, the more I had to act like it wasn’t a weakness.

“Cheeky…”

squeak-

Immediately, Asmodeus’s jaw was cut off. The calculation of how much force to use to break through Asmodeus’s defense was over. The moment Carol thought so, she swung her sword at Asmodeus once again.

Kwaaang-!

With a huge shockwave, Carol was pushed back dozens of steps.

“Ahahahahaha! That’s cheeky. Did you really think I could only use magic? That expression now, I like it very much.”

Asmodeus pulled out his long claw and swung it as it was, breaking through Carol’s defense and wounding him.

It was extremely fast, strong, and efficient. Contrary to his flirtatious and exaggerated tone, Asmodeus’ attack was not wasted at all.

Whether it was magic or melee, it was the same. Even though he was sure to be able to attack more powerfully than the dragon’s breath, Asmodeus knew how to condense and use only as much power as he needed.

He also skillfully countered Carol’s power of will. The fact that Carol had lived so long that she couldn’t even imagine it was the same as saying that she had such a strong mental power.

‘lack.’

Asmodeus was still not using power. Carol didn’t know what his exact intentions were, but looking at Asmodeus’ attitude right now, it was closer to a kind of play than a serious fight.

‘Does not matter.’

If it’s not enough, it’s enough to fill it up. After coming to this world, most opponents couldn’t even point out Carol for the first time. However, that was only possible because Carol had a lot of practical experience accumulated in Moorim.

He has passed countless death hurdles. He had countless experiences of fighting against people stronger than himself. Carol survived like that.

There was nothing special about this time.

“The more powerful the will, the more fun it is to see despair when it collapses.”

Despite the bloody attack, Asmodeus’ mouth did not rest.

Carol didn’t respond to such trivial words, but gradually gazed at the inner world.

The sword was the sword of the heart.

Then, who the hell is ‘I’ with a heart?

oh what is i

It was said to be organized, but in reality, Carol’s inner world was in a state of chaos, with the memories of the present day, the Moorim, and this world jumbled together.

While exchanging battles with Asmodeus in a trance, Carol slowly walked through the inner world.

Just like the previous connection from the Shinyo Basic Gong to the Heavenly Demon Sword.

At first, he was just a boy who longed for the world where mu and hyeop live and breathe.

As fate would have it, the boy reached the highest position of the Heavenly Demon in the cruel Murim.

In the end, he reached this world without seeing the end of nothingness.

Carol didn’t know exactly why she had to go through that process.

Maybe all of this was just a coincidence.

But what was certain was that Carol had numerous experiences beyond the world.

I found something like thread in the floating memories.

connecting the world with the world.

‘Right.’

At that moment, Carol naturally realized the secret of Asmodeus’ immortality.

Asmodeus’ ‘root’ was still in the demon realm. To Asmodeus, this world was no different from a virtual reality game. The spirit is here, but the body is like an avatar in the game. That was the reason why he was able to regenerate his body even though he was destroyed countless times by Carol’s attack.

Just like loading a savepoint in the game, just duplicate the original and that’s it. Besides, even if he was defeated and reverse summoned, from Asmodeus’ point of view, it was just a fun entertainment.

It wasn’t really dying, it was just going back to the Demon Realm.

Carol, who was gazing at the inner world, slowly turned her gaze to the outer world.

‘see.’

I could see a thick line connecting world to world, connected to Asmodeus.

If he cut that off, Asmodeus would be like a player trapped in virtual reality.

If you die in this world while being cut off from the demon realm like that.

That would be tantamount to eternity.

Carol suddenly had such a question. Will Asmodeus be the same as he is now when he truly faces death?

‘…Does not matter.’

It didn’t matter.

The important thing was how to cut that thread that had no substance.

I took a deep breath and calmed my mind.

– Pounding.

heartbeat thumped.

“Huh, did you give up?”

Asmodeus grinned at Carol, who stopped attacking and even threw in black charges.

No words had already reached Carol’s ears.

It was not Asmodeus who could be seen through the half-opened eyes.

The sword he had always had in his heart was not finished yet. I didn’t even know when I would be able to complete it. The limit to wielding is imperfect once.

lacking? It wasn’t enough.

That was enough for now.

the universe opens

The invisible sword of the heart split the world.
