44 – Episode 44. Gathering of the Four Heavenly Kings

The place where the Demon King’s army is stationed is a kingdom that was as prosperous as the empire in the past.

However, despite its brilliant history and tradition, its traces have been thoroughly trampled by demons in the present.

I don’t think about taking care of those traces at all.

For a group that lacks morals and ethics, it is believed that if they need something, they should steal it from others instead of making it themselves.

“That woman is really the Four Heavenly Kings?”

The moment when one of the highest-ranking officials in such a warlike group walks across the abandoned castle.

The attention of the demons who had been flirting around her before began to focus on her.

“As the word ‘crazy clown’ suggests, he looks like a clown… But he looks somewhat weak.”

Blue skin and pointy ears. Brilliant amber eyes.

And a tuxedo and a top hat, clothes that would never suit demons who make fighting their business.

Since her strength is not revealed on the outside, it would be natural for demons who do not know about her to look down on her.

“Now that you think about it, she almost never goes to battle. Isn’t that because she actually only lives for a long time and is weak?”

“Want a fight? If I just defeat that b*tch, I’ll be second in rank in the Demon King’s army…”

“Newcomers, if your life is at stake, it would be better to just watch quietly.”

However, in this abandoned castle, there are quite a few high-ranking demons who have accumulated experience by crossing several dimensions.

What they revealed when they saw that clown was none other than an emotion called fear.

“Don’t look down on me. Why are you saying that?”

“That’s because the reason this palace was destroyed overnight as soon as I entered this world was because of that clown. If the guys next to you attack in droves right away, are you confident that you will kill them all and win?”

“Well, that’s unreasonable. Maybe it’s just one or two people…”

“That’s the vicious point of that clown, to get rid of even those thoughts and make you run and die.”

A horrifying apocalypse that does not oppress individuals through force, but rather taints groups of people with madness and causes them to kill each other.

Anyone who knows her hideousness would not dispute the fact that she is second in rank in the Demon King’s army.

Unless it’s at least the same Four Heavenly Kings, there won’t be anyone here who can stand in her way.

“Oh my, who is this? Isn’t it our cute and lovely Mephie?”

The moment when my steps across the abandoned castle stopped at the nickname given by such a person.

Afterwards, as I turned my gaze to the side, the sight of a demon gently flying up and falling from the air caught my eye.

“It’s been a while, Mephie~♡ I came back earlier than I planned… I wonder if he came back so quickly because he missed me~?”

A female-bodied demon who exposes her skin to a degree that contrasts with her own.

Her bewitching lust was in itself a symbol of her desire.

“…Yasumo.”

Shinigami Demon – Yasumo Deus.

He is fifth in rank in the Demon King’s army and one of the Four Heavenly Kings, and as his name suggests, he is a monster of s*xual desire who sucks the energy of the opposite s*x with whom he has a relationship until he dies.

But even he seemed to have grown tired of it, and since entering this world, he had been focusing only on relationships with people of the same s*x, not the opposite s*x.

To achieve that, they do not hesitate to cross the line, so they must be resented by many people in this world just like the beast people.

“Oh my~ Why are we being so serious between us? I have a nickname called Yasudesu, and my Mephie calls me that too~&”

What a nickname. Does she really think Yasu Desu is a good nickname for her?

If you think about it, she has had a bad sense of naming herself since long ago. She tried to brush it off for a while.

“…What are you doing?”

“hehehe, I think your breasts have gotten bigger while we haven’t seen each other?”

Yasumo comes up behind me and immediately starts touching my chest.

Her size is much smaller than hers, but to her, she is nothing more than a clown, and her physical charms are nothing more than decoration.

At one point, I thought this might also be used to please the lord, but in the end, I thought it was meaningless and put it aside.

“Yes~ It’s very ripe for a bird I haven’t seen before! At this rate, I can eat it right here…”

“Yasumo.”

But indifference does not lead to allowing others’ desires.

Soon, with a snap of her fingers, her body disappeared, and Yasumo’s hand, which had been touching her breast, passed through the air.

“…I’m not in the mood to joke around right now.”

It is a light illusion.

This was also one of the tricks practiced at one time to please the lord.

“Aha~ I guess you thought I would be scared if you looked so straight~”

Yasumo Deus smiles and looks backwards.

She quietly approached Mephisto, who was staring at her indifferently, and placed her finger on his chin, fiercely gathering her mana.

“Ah~ Our Mephisto Rage. The Demon King’s poor clown~♬ He wanders the world with the intention of helping his master who never smiles, but he is unable to achieve any results, so his heart has become a tattered rag~♪”

The scent of deception.

Her enlightened power in response to her desire arouses the s*xual desire of the exposed subject, leading to a strong courtship towards her.

The reason why her power seems more irritating than when she was exposed before is probably because after coming to this world, she became aware of her homos*xuality and developed a desire for it.

“But Mephie… No matter how bad your temper is, you have to watch your opponent and attack him.”

Inducing madness through performance is ultimately only effective when targeting a group.

As the target is an individual, all it can do is to induce a strong obsession towards the other person, so it cannot demonstrate overwhelming ability against an individual.

“Just because you stayed in the Demon King’s Army for a long time and you were ranked second in ranking, you don’t really think that you are the second strongest in the Demon King’s Army after the Demon King, do you?”

This is a fact that Mephisto himself knows well.

He is the weakest among the Four Heavenly Kings.

Unless you are fighting with an army, you are always the one who ends up losing your head in an all-out war against a strong person.

“…Say that now.”

But I already risked death and returned here, so what does such a difference in power matter?

It’s just that the place where you will die will be in front of this person, not in front of the devil.

Even if you don’t win, it is possible for even you now to cause damage to Dong-gwi-jin or equivalent damage.

“Are you confident you won’t regret it?”

The moment when frantic magic spreads in response to such will.

Yasumo, who encountered this, felt scared for a moment and began to move his body backwards.

“hehehe~ I’m kidding~♡ There’s no way I’d fight Mephie, right?”

I wouldn’t know if I could immediately reduce the strong person in front of me to a s*x slave, but if I engage in a slaughter war in a situation where I can’t aim for that, the loss will inevitably be greater than the gain.

As long as you are a demon who is faithful to your desires, it is natural to want to retreat if it is detrimental to achieving your desires.

“I was just a little interested, so I came here first. You, who usually wander around without returning to the Demon Lord’s army until a world is destroyed, returned first even though that time had not yet come.”

“…I will explain the reason in front of the Demon King.”

Yes, demons are a race that keeps their distance if they cannot achieve their desires.

So, Mephisto realized at this moment that if he achieved his goal, he would never see the person in front of him again.

Either I die here, or I miraculously survive.

After today, you will no longer be able to call yourself a member of the Demon King’s army.

“Mephisto, and Yasumo Deus.”

A demon proudly stands in front of the path leading to that goal.

He had an ugly head similar to that of an insect, and in a way, he was a more important figure than the other two, corresponding to the core of the Demon King’s army.

“The Demon King heard the news of Mephisto’s return and summoned all the Four Heavenly Kings.”

The proud king of Paris – Beelzebub.

Despite having the head of an insect, a demon who has a polite attitude and prefers neat clothing such as a suit.

He placed as much importance on absolute value and trust as his appearance, and was in fact a person who could be said to be a strategist in charge of commanding the military and a general manager in charge of managing treasures.

“This time, don’t forget and follow us quietly… Except when crossing dimensions, it’s unusual for the Demon King to summon all four of us at once.”

“Aha~ That’s a very rare thing. The Demon King himself called… Is he glad that Mephie came?”

Yasumo flirts with Beelzebub’s words and gives him attention.

From noble mtl dot com

With those words, Mephisto quietly put the top hat on his head and walked out after Beelzebub.

“It would be nice if that were the case.”

I don’t think that will happen anymore, but what if….

I embrace the simple wish that something like that could happen even now.

“The Demon Lord is in here. Everyone, please be polite.”

The place we arrived at at the end was the egg site of the abandoned castle.

The place where the king’s subjects once gathered was now unmaintained, so it was falling apart and showing signs of wear and tear.

However, even though it is such a place, currently, upon hearing the news of the convocation of the Four Heavenly Kings, a large number of interested demons have gathered.

Among them, the one who showed interest in Mephisto, who had just arrived here, was another demon who was in the same position as the Four Heavenly Kings.

“Oh, who is this? It’s the damn clown who is second in rank in the Demon King’s army!”

A plain appearance with no hair on the body wearing a jacket.

But no one here will look down on him.

Even if he didn’t have any special decorations or unique features, the energy that spread around him just by standing there was enough to make you know with the naked eye how strong he was.

“hahahahaha! This is a very precious person coming from a shabby place! I haven’t seen him in about 10 years, but it’s really hard to see his face even once, huh!?”

3Rd place in the Demon King’s army – Greaseville, the usurper.

He, who can only satisfy his true nature by getting everything he wants, was said to be a demon who was the most faithful to his primal desires among those in the demon king’s army.

As the name of the usurper suggests, he has a tendency to only relax when he gets everything he wants.

Not only the desire for power, but also the desire to possess others and the desire for fame to be intoxicated with one’s own status…….

And even the desire to dominate by standing at the top and looking down.

“…It’s been a while, Greaseville. Have you been at peace?”

“hahahaha~ Why is he acting so polite all of a sudden? Normally, as soon as we met, he would be sarcastic and get on my nerves.”

To him, except for the Demon King, all of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Demon King’s army are considered thorns in his eyes, and Mephisto in particular was an object of hatred.

It is said that the Four Heavenly Kings are equal to each other, but their ranking is determined by who entered the Demon King’s army first.

Nevertheless, the brat in front of me entered the Demon King’s army before him, and is proudly occupying second place in the ranking because he survived until the end.

It is natural that he cannot even acknowledge his survival, as it is not because he was at the forefront of the Demon King’s army like himself and led the war to victory, but because he devoted his time to trivial things such as travel.

“I’m glad we got to meet in person like this, but let’s go out for a little while and have a drink, okay?”

So, if you get the chance, prove the difference in power and kill them.

He displayed such murderous intent and urged him to go out with him, but soon Beelzebub blocked his path and spoke quietly.

“Greaseville. I understand your feelings, but we are gathered here because the Demon King himself called us. If we have any business, let’s do it after the Demon King’s story is over.”

“hehehe, a bug who can’t use his four feet just by looking at the treasure, at times like this, he listens very well to the Demon King.”

“It’s natural. If you’re under the Demon King, you can easily collect all kinds of treasures. So, I hope you don’t do anything to displease the Demon King…”

Greed and desire to collect, etc.

Parasites who assist the Demon King because they can satisfy their own desires and seek compensation and power.

This reason may also apply to other demons watching the situation around here.

Yes, there is probably no one other than himself who has sworn pure loyalty to the Demon King.

“Why don’t you two stop arguing and just look ahead?”

As Yasumo continued to ponder the scene, Greasville and Beelzebub’s gaze began to turn forward.

With demons gathered around them out of interest, a being begins to gradually reveal its presence on the throne erected above.

“I came out. It’s the devil!”

“This is my first time seeing it in person.”

Due to the nature of spending most of the time in seclusion, he only gives instructions and rarely appears in front of the military.

And that also applies to the Four Heavenly Kings.

“…Has everyone gathered?”

But no matter what each person’s intentions were, they also had something they wanted and swore loyalty to him.

With the great power he possesses, he will most likely be able to make everything they wish come true.

With that wish in mind, the Four Heavenly Kings soon began to bow their heads in front of him on behalf of the surrounding demons.

·

“”Meet the Demon King.””

Devil King Solomon.

The king of demons who lives for his desires, the destroyer who has crossed dimensions and led the invasion of many worlds, one of the greatest disasters threatening humanity in this world.

‘And the one who will connect my beginning and end.’

Mephisto confronts him.

He began to gradually put more strength into his hand, which was holding the resignation letter in my arms.
