Episode 215
Episode 78. The sadness of Porapora Island (6)
was not in the mood to be dried up. An immature man who didn’t know how to be afraid of the other world, he didn’t know what choice he had made.
Igmeseus thought.
He said that it would be much better for him to take all of Ballinan’s life force than to die at the hands of the demon king of the underworld.
If he was killed by Empey, there was a high probability that he would not be able to find rest even after death.
‘Nimi’s dream of liberating spirits ends here.’
Igmeseus cursed inwardly and flew towards Ballinan.
[Kid!]
“Why!”
[I will give you the power. Don’t resent me when you die. Can’t you think about it one last time? You can’t kill Empey with all your life force. As long as my body doesn’t come, I can’t kill that.]
“It doesn’t matter.”
[Yes, sir. Yes!]
As Igmeseus got closer to Empey, he felt sorry for Ballinan’s choice and went mad. Seeing the sky changing horribly, I became even more disturbed.
In the eyes of Igmeseus, Empey has completed the basic work to ‘draw’ its original power.
Opening a dimension leading to the underworld and temporarily turning a certain area into the underworld.
This was the reason why the sky where M-Pay was floating turned like broken glass.
In that case, he couldn’t be sure even if he led the body and directly confronted him. After some of his powers were sealed in the past, there were numerous restrictions on Igmeseus’ power.
Wouldn’t it be better if we fought in the middle of the spirit realm, not the human realm?
‘But that would have exceeded the limits of the underworld’s interference with the human world… why isn’t it being tracked down?’
But there was no time for Igmeseus to reason over the matter.
Because his stupid contractor is trudging through a huge cloud of dust.
[hey! Don’t go in!]
That cloud of dust was caused by the black lightning that Empey had thrown at Yuma.
Ballinan intuitively knew that Yuma was among the clouds of dust.
“Your brother is over there!”
[There is still black aura energy in that dust cloud, man!]
Ballinan bit his lower lip and looked back at Gmeseus.
Around that time, Empey also identified Igmeseus’ body, which was shining suspiciously.
[Heo Spirit King? Why is he here…]
Empey muttered to herself as she formed a bolt of lightning. Igmeseus groaned and avoided Ballinan’s gaze.
“I hope the next contractor will work with Yig for a little longer.”
Before Igmeseus could even answer, Ballinan started to activate the artifacts he was wearing one by one. Then he started whispering the spirit language.
Ballinan’s body began to glow white and floated into the air. At that time, Empey hurriedly gathered lightning and threw it.
Igmeseus met Empey’s gaze as he struck lightning with his large forearm.
[What are you doing here? Igmeseus.]
[Sorry. I don’t have any ill feelings towards you either. My contractor asked me to plant one in your mouth.] [
What?]
[That’s what I heard. Did you put an apple in your ear hole?]
[Ha ha ha… Humans say that.
Because they are a race known for being fearless.
But now, even the bottom spirit ignores me?]
Empey’s eyes started to burn like fireworks. Igmeseus flinched, but that was all.
[This body is the demon king of the underworld. Raise your words, the dregs of chaos.]
[Knock it off.]
[It’s not your body, so you’ve lost your fear. If you clear this island, I’ll visit you first.] [You’re coming to die?] Mpey burst into laughter when Igmeseus was sarcastic. It was a laugh as if looking down on an insignificant being.
[Do you think I don’t know that you were sealed by humans and became a half-half spirit king? Be prepared to have even that half of your remaining power sealed.] [Yes, that’s right. His teeth are the strongest in the Demon World.]
However, Igmeseus was acutely regretting following Ballinan. Even just looking at it right now, Mpey was clearly far exceeding the limits of human interference.
‘I don’t know what they did, but if I don’t get caught in the chase… that bastard could really come find me and kill me.’
Before I knew it, Empey’s hands were gathering new lightning. It was a bolt of lightning with power similar to the one that had been dropped on Yuma.
[I’ll find you soon, Ig Meseus.]
Just before the lightning fell, Ballinan’s body was once engulfed in brilliance.
Then, Ballinan slumped and fell to the floor.
It was the moment when all of his vitality was transferred to Igmeseus.
At the same time, lightning fell and Igmeseus screamed and threw his fists.
Ah ah ah ah ah!
Igmeseus’ fist was surrounded by the power of the five brilliant spirits. When the lightning and the fist collided, a shock wave that looked like a huge disk was formed and all the trees in the area were uprooted.
The shock wave was enough to sweep away even the dust cloud that was covering Yuma from the other side.
Igmeseus and Empey’s energy fluctuated violently as if they were going to eat each other for a while.
A fist of Igme Seus that emits flashy light and lightning that looks like a dark pillar.
The two-pronged confrontation of tremendous power was won by a narrow margin on the side of Igmesesus. The energy of Igmeseus split the lightning in half and shot towards Empey.
[You’re struggling.]
But the problem was that it was a very narrow victory.
The energy of Igmeseus, which split the lightning and shot toward the sky where Empey was floating, did not reach Empey and rapidly thinned and disappeared.
It was a blow at the cost of all of Ballinan’s life force. Igmeseus just trembled in the same position where he stretched out his fist.
[Have you done everything?]
[Sibal is confident.]
[The bluff ends there. Let me realize the enormous gap between the underworld demon king and the dregs of chaos.] As
Empey raised her hand, new power began to gather in front of him. And Igmeseus sighed in despair as he watched the scene.
It was because the power that Empey was freely gathering and dispersing was not a black aura, but her own energy.
A colorful aura that didn’t match Empey at all floated around him.
[It’s an unpleasant and low-level power. I’ll return it as it is.]
Empey began to slowly descend to the ground. The shadow of Empey’s wide-spread wings cast over Igmeseus and the fallen Ballinan.
After finishing his descent, he slowly moved forward with the power of this Gmeseus in his hands.
[Please forgive me. Then let’s think about the seal one more time.]
Empey stopped in front of Igmeseus and said.
[I’d rather suck Belkan’s back hole than bow down to you. Eh bebe.]
[You’re making foolish choices until the end… How do you feel? The feeling of being defeated by my own strength.]
Igmeseus clenched his fists, conscious of the dead Ballinan lying behind him like a dead man.
‘Stupid bastard. Why did you make this choice and bring about your own death at such a young age? After all, I can’t even feed this bastard properly.’
In any case, it was later that Empey came and threatened him in the future. Igmeseus felt bitter and waited for the power of the spirits gathered in his hands to fall on him.
And from the other side, where the dust clouds had almost subsided, a familiar, cheeky voice.
“Yeah, what do you think? that feeling.”
[her? Are you alive?]
“You ask. How do you think it would feel to be defeated by your own strength?”
Igmeseus did not know how the situation was going.
‘Anyway, this is a complete gain?’
He just thought so and turned his head towards Yuma. However, Ig, who confirmed Yuma’s appearance, had to blink in surprise.
It’s because Yuma’s skin has turned a light purple color.
It was clearly not the color of normal human skin.
It was not a change caused by the bursting of blood vessels due to the shock of being struck by lightning. It was the result of absorbing the power of the underworld.
In addition, Yuma’s Ascalon was surrounded by lightning that shook violently as if it would tear apart the space at any moment.
While Empey hesitated, Yuma quickly closed the distance and swung the Ascalon.
Ascalon drew a trajectory leaving intense heat, and the tip of Empey’s wing was cut off.
“Have decades passed since I was down? You looked corrupt. What are those horns again?”
There was no time to answer Empey. It was because Yuma moved fast enough to leave an afterimage and extended his sword.
Yuma persistently aimed only at his wings and necklace.
As soon as Yuma woke up, he tried to attack and realized it clearly. That neck hanger’s weakness is obvious.
[Could it be that he absorbed my lightning?]
“I don’t know what kind of psychology it is to ask after seeing it. Foolish bastard.”
Yuma flew up and clung to Empey, who was trying to escape, and swung Ascalon as a bell.
Empey hurriedly summoned Akyla to block the attack, but a different level of heaviness was felt.
Empey’s arm holding Amoula bent downward. Right before Ascalon landed on her forehead, Empey twisted her neck and caught the blade with her horn.
As Empey’s back bent, the ground he was standing on collapsed.
Just as Yuma wielded the Ascalon with one hand, he looked down at Empei arrogantly.
“Oh, it’s solid.”
[Dare!]
Empey raised her strength and blew the energy of Igmeseus she had been gathering in her hand to Yuma.
Yuma lightly blocked Yig’s energy with the other hand holding Ascalon.
And just as he was about to stick it into Empey’s face, Igmeseus screamed urgently.
[hey! That’s a little life! Throw it away!]
“What? life? What else was that… I got it!”
While Yuma threw spirit energy at Igmeseus, Empey drew back and formed a lightning bolt.
Empei, who was about to launch a lightning bolt, held her breath as Yuma met her eyes.
It’s because that human bastard is looking at himself with a very confident expression.
“why? throw it Even the black aura tastes good.”
[Kahak!]
If that human absorbs lightning again and becomes stronger…
that would not be the case.
Empey decided to deal with him only with hand-to-hand combat without using black lightning.
I wouldn’t know if it was before I opened the dimension of the underworld, but now my physical ability was much higher than before. There was even a demonic sword, so there was no reason why he couldn’t be defeated.
Empey raised Amoula and spread her wings. It was to rush towards Yuma.
Paji Paji!
[Kuaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaak]
However, Empey couldn’t rush and had no choice but to quickly fold her wings and grab them. Just like the first time I was attacked by him, an explosion occurred from the wing that had just been cut, and great pain came over me.
Yuma smiled and removed the black aura from Ascalon.
Then, Yuma’s aura, which emits a brilliant blue color, was revealed.
“Is it all about absorbing one of your lightning bolts? I’m naturally strong even without the Black Aura.”
And Yuma thought.
Whether humans or demons, those who were born with a higher class and became stronger without hindrance, especially those who think they are really good, have something in common.
All of them were immature when they couldn’t use their strong power properly or fell into an unexpected crisis.
Sukyeong!
Ascalon swung, leaving a trail of aura as white as a half moon, and Empey’s head was cut in half.
