Darkness.

I can see a dark, invisible spot of light.

'It's sinking.'

I feel invincible.

Into endless darkness, the bottom is sinking in an invisible continuum.

'This place.'

I opened my eyes thinly.

The first suspicion is the deepest part of the world, the world full of the magic of Abyss.

"……."

Shut your mouth firmly.

I shook my head.

'No.'

It is not such a grand world.

A simple dream. It was just a passing welcome.

'Is it a dream...?'

I don't know. I usually dream when I sleep for a short time, but I feel pretty alive today.

'Ah….'

I began to see something in the dark.

Memories of the past.

The memories in hell pass before your eyes like a panorama.

Stab him.

I heard something squirming in my ear, something with mucus.

"What is it?"

I turned my head.

In a darkened space.

Something jealous reaches out and wraps his body in an instant.

"Argh."

I twist my body. I try to use Magi to generate power.

But it is.

"Huff!"

This is a dream, not a reality. Virtual space.

No magic, no power.

The concept is different from what had previously gone into the body of a drink.

This place was just a real, pure dream.

Churrr.

Something viscous bound me completely.

'No, this one.'

A familiar sensation, one that caused deep trauma to his life.

'Why... this.'

The accident did not lead.

Just as he severed the cord of consciousness, the tentacle that wrapped his whole body broke into all the holes in his body.

Terrible nightmare.

A fragment of memory that shaped despair.

Billions.

Darkness has broken out.

Eighteen red eyes appeared in the darkness.

The sound of a woman's laughter echoed through the entire space.

'Ugh, ah.'

I reached out. It's useless.

His body continued to sink.

Into the darkness. Into the nightmares that can't come out of my hair.

Deep, deep.

'Ah, ah.'

Stir your hands and feet.

Mad and desperate. There is no sound coming out of my mouth.

The light flashed in the darkness. I heard something breaking.

"Aaaaaaaah!!!"

I raised my body by wetting the blanket.

His whole body was wet with sweat. I feel unpleasant about the sticky clothes.

"Phew, Phew."

I breathed roughly.

I looked around with my head up.

I saw a familiar room.

"Well, what the hell."

Rain murmured as he wiped away the sweat that flowed through his chin.

Crazy dream.

I remembered in my mind the memory of hell that I had forgotten since I became accustomed to life on Earth.

'Damn it.'

I closed my eyes.

I erased a bad memory in my head.

"Haah...."

A sigh came out of me.

Somehow, I really missed Hansula's face.

'If only in hell.'

If there was a woman like her.

No, if Reese really had the appearance of a commonly imagined Circus.

'But it would have been a little better.'

Appearance is important.

It's beautiful and it's not a problem.

At least 18 eyes should not be covered with tentacles through which the whole body drains pus.

It is the same that most senses are human and demonic and depend on perspective.

'Even with one beautiful woman, life in hell would have been better.'

In my own opinion, laughter flowed.

Honestly, even though I thought about it, it was kind of lame and mean.

But what do we do?

I could say it was a degrading idea, but at that time he needed a place to rest.

'Only those who don't have one YaX on their hard disk throw stones at me.'

Desiring reason is instinct.

I didn't mean to deny it.

"Well... Hell was like that in the first place."

There's nothing to blame for Reese.

Hell's demons all look like that, but what can I do?

'It's already happened.'

Still, when I think of life in hell, my body trembles like it still has a seizure.

The rain shook his head and lifted the blanket.

"Huhu."

Let's pick up the blanket.

There's a lot of people there.

"You said you were going to defeat Halkion today, right? I snuck in at night to empower the Demon King."

Hehe.

Reese smiles with a cute tongue. Nine out of 18 eyes wink.

The green tentacles that I saw in my dreams curled up in the rain.

"Ah, ah."

Rain covered his face with both hands and bowed his head.

A desperate moan came out.

Nightmares are bad.

It's not over.

* * *

[You look very tired, Demon King.]

"... Shut up."

At the end of the day, Vallock replied with a tired look.

I didn't have the strength to answer because I was horrified in the morning.

"Are you ready, by the way?"

I shook my head as if I was shaking a nightmare.

Balok smiles.

[What can I do for you?]

He folds his arms as if he were showing off his bursting muscles.

Rain smiled and moved his steps.

'You're in control.'

Gates located in the U.S. state of Florida.

I couldn't even find a trace of a person around the gate, according to Reese.

[Halkion....]

Valoc hardens his face thinking of the existence beyond this gate.

Tension flowed out of his body.

"Why, are you a little nervous because you say it's an ancient monster?"

The rain curled his head in a dismal appearance.

Even though I've never fought an ancient beast before, I can't easily see Baloch being that nervous.

[Haa.]

Balok sighed deeply.

[Because Halkion has such a horrible appearance... I'm not afraid to fight, but honestly I don't want to see that disgusting look again.]

"……."

At the end of the ensuing Balok, the rains opened their eyes.

"Have you ever met Halkion in person before?"

If not, there is no way to say that I don't want to see you again.

[… yes.]

Balok nods with a heavy expression.

[About... 900 years ago. At that time, I went out to investigate with my men and accidentally went to Halkion's habitat. I could see him once.]

"Wait, nine hundred years ago?"

Nine hundred years ago, I met Balok and started working with him.

I recalled the memory of my past, but I never heard from Baloch that I met Halkion.

"Why didn't you see it?"

[Ah….]

I asked in a low voice.

Reporting is key in the upward and downward relationship.

Intentional reporting omissions are serious enough to warrant summary execution if severe.

[Sin, sorry, Demon King!]

Balok quickly tightened his head to see if he realized he had made a mistake.

The rain scratched his head as he stared at him with the urge of his grandfather.

"No, well. I'm not trying to pry, I'm just wondering why."

It is right that what I saw and missed was a great sin, but it has already been nine hundred years.

Now I didn't have to come and confess my sins.

'But why did you do it?'

There is no way to intentionally miss a report for no reason.

Given his personality, it is likely that he did so for a quite important reason.

[That's.....]

Balok sighed deeply and said.

[Because the Halkion I saw at the time was so horrible.]

"……."

[If not, the Demon King is busy without a new snow rink, but I don't want to make you care about that terrible thing..]

Rain frowned.

It was too poor to make excuses.

'Well, isn't that what happened at the time?'

Nine hundred years ago, the conflict with the Grand Duke began to escalate.

It was not a situation to care about even ancient monsters who did not step outside of their habitat.

'I'm curious to say this.'

Now I wonder how horrible it is to react like that.

Rain looked at the gate as if it were interesting.

"Let's go."

[This, this sin is my life..]

"Don't bullshit me."

I kicked Vallock's leg lightly and took a step forward.

Passing through the gate, a lush forest unfolds before your eyes.

"……."

I have a dark blood smell.

"I think you're very excited."

I saw the corpse of a monster torn apart by gallows all over the lush forest.

'I do.'

The opponent is an ancient monster.

Monsters that can fight with the Grand Duke have appeared in the gate, so it is no different from disaster even for monsters.

It is highly likely that one of the attributes of Evil Water was killed by the monsters that appeared around it to form a 'habitat'.

[Demon King.]

"I know."

Rain brought Margie up.

I am fully prepared to use my power at any time.

Balok also raised his fist, raising his head.

Steel.

A black armor was created in his sheep's fist. It's like a Western knight wearing a Gauntlet.

That is the new power that Valoc gained, the 'Armor of the Loser'.

"... I see you don't use whips?"

[It doesn't go well with the Straggler Armor. Nowadays, it mainly uses fists.]

"Hmm."

The rain nodded.

It was true that Baloch's main weapon was whipped, but that does not mean that Bare Hand combat skills are lacking.

'I'll take care of it.'

Just as I can't give you direct advice about Kim Si-hoon's martial arts, so can Balok.

He's already a complete warrior.

If he had abandoned the whip that was the Lord's weapon, his choice would have been right.

Argh, Argh... Argh.

At that time, I heard a cry in the forest.

Rain made a sword with the power of a blade.

"Over there."

I felt an intense magi from where I heard the sound of crying.

I moved slowly.

'Halkion.'

A horrible creature that even demons play.

I went through the bushes thinking what he would look like.

'It doesn't matter.'

No matter how disgusting he looks, it doesn't matter.

'Anyway.'

There is no romance in hell.

If you hit something horrible, you've already seen the floor on it.

I was confident to eat it with the power of predation with a smile, even though it looked like it had been built after the corpse.

Here we go.

Show yourself.

Rain cuts through the foreground with a long-extended blade.

There's a lot of people there.

"……."

[Argh! You still have a disgusting look!]

Balok clenches his fist with a distorted expression.

The rain opened its mouth and looked at Halkion.

"Argh, hump."

A white-haired woman with tears.

The wings of a bat on the back.

Two horns on the forehead. A tail hanging around the hips.

And then.

Dazzling.

Creepy enough.

Beautiful appearance.

"Hey, Balok..."

My body trembled less.

The appearance of Halkion was so beautiful.

Honestly, neither Hansulah nor Echid are opponents.

To paraphrase it:

It was what people often thought of as the "Circus."

"Hey, Val X."

The years in hell have gone by like a panorama.

She's had a hard time seeing a man.

At least Mrs. Reese, who looks good.

The days when the tentacles roar every night.

Dry spaces you couldn't find any fun in.

I've endured it.

I've put up with it.

By the way.

I did.

"Ah, ah."

I grabbed his head.

Have you met Halkion in person before?

Yes, it is.

"Ugh."

Why didn't you see it?

"Hey.."

Because the Halkion I saw at the time was so horrible.

"Son of a bitch!!!!"

Transparent tears poured down on both cheeks of the rain.

"Why didn't you report it, you son of a bitch!!!!"
