My Alter Ego’s Path to Greatness

Chapter 387



Chapter 387

? Demon World (2) ?

The immortal home of evil located in the northern mountains of the Aeon Continent.

Succubus Siana, who oversees the internal affairs of the Immortal Army, walked busily.

While he was busily concentrating on his work, he suddenly received a call from the king.

‘Haha, what happened again?’

Like all executives here, she had a lot of work to do.

Gamtu was only in charge of internal affairs, but in reality, he was in charge of all kinds of miscellaneous tasks.

To be fair, what need is there for internal affairs in a group where most of the members are undead?

Those immortal beings are the ones who come back unharmed even from the border of the abyss, where there is no water and air, and even space and time are mixed.

Since the undead were monsters that could simply be stored in a warehouse and taken out when needed, the only thing to do inside the immortal castle was to properly manage the warlocks, who were no better than slaves, and the captive prince.

‘It’s Hubert Sanghoe…. But I’m glad that we’re seeing results. ‘It has already grown to the point where it can be counted among the first on the continent.’

In that sense, managing to ensure that trade with One Human Trading Company proceeds without a hitch could be said to be the most cumbersome task she took on.

It was a rare material that could only be obtained in the northern mountains, so it could be easily collected by using the undead, but secretly trading it was another problem.

Well, I understand because there is no other person in the immortal army who can handle such a delicate matter other than yourself.

‘Anyway, this generation’s Immortal King is definitely different from the previous generations that foolishly put power first. They are drawing attention by pretending to be preparing for an all-out war in the future, but are encroaching on the continent’s economy in the future. ‘This means we’ve already won before the war even starts, right?’

Siana, who had a vague idea of the big picture drawn by the Immortal King through her previous work, clicked her tongue.

Perhaps the lukewarm actions he has shown so far were all laying the groundwork for that.

At first, I couldn’t understand what he was thinking, but I got goosebumps when I thought that the three-year postponement and other playful activities were all arranged for that purpose.

‘I didn’t know at the time, but I know now. ‘The subsequent raids by the Immortal Army contributed greatly to the growth of Hubert Company.’

War, which consumed enormous amounts of materials, and the merchants who supplied it were inseparable.

Hubert Company was the most timely and active in the raid of the Immortal Army and rapidly increased its power.

In fact, how many people in the world know that there was an Immortal King’s intervention behind it?

‘…that sharp intellect that does not rely on strong force. I guess it’s not just the outer appearance of the skull that’s sexy!’

Siana, who easily ignored the fact that the inside of her skull was actually empty, smiled brightly with a blush on her cheeks.

The Immortal Army was a black company with the worst work intensity, but the presence of a great direct supervisor was a great employee benefit in itself.

Enough to calm my agitated mind due to the sudden call from my hometown.

“Uh… is that the king? this person is…?”

Therefore, Syana had no choice but to fall into confusion when she encountered an outsider at the place where she arrived after receiving the call from the Immortal King.

Because the immortal king… was in the same place with a woman he had never seen before!

[Hmm— If I had to say it, I would have to say he was a business partner. No, maybe it’s a rivalry. Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk.]

“That’s too much. “I’ve said this many times, but I’m not really interested in this continent.”

The woman calmly had an informal conversation with the Immortal King.

A being with long horns, black wings, and red eyes that shine like rubies in the middle of black eyeballs, no matter how you look at it, it appears to be nothing but a devil.

Naturally, I became wary of the other person, but that feeling did not last long.

“hi? What a pretty kid. My name is Hela. Please take care of me?”

A beautiful woman who exudes a strange charm all over her body.

As she smiled and spoke, Siana began to feel sick.

I simply looked into each other’s eyes and received a greeting, but a feeling of unknown origin welled up deep in my heart.

‘…Nonsense. This level of fascination! ‘Who is that woman?’

Sianna was a succubus.

A member of such a prestigious lineage that it is no exaggeration to say that they are the best in the field of seduction.

That level was enough to put even other races with similar abilities, such as vampires and Siren Lamia, down a few levels, and to that extent, he had a level of resistance that was close to immunity to what he was subjected to… ‘Ugh,

I, a succubus… . You can’t fall for someone of the same sex either! ‘I don’t have that kind of taste!’

It didn’t matter whether she was of the opposite sex or the same sex in front of the charm that naturally radiated from Hela, the person in front of her right now.

Maybe even golems without emotions can be possessed.

A trickle of blood flowed from the corner of Siana’s mouth as she clenched her teeth.

“Hehe, it’s pretty good too, isn’t it?”

[Leave the joke there. There is a lot of work to do in the future.]

Still, perhaps because she did her best to endure, she was able to endure without giving up until the opponent lost his strength.

I couldn’t be sure what would have happened if the confrontation had continued, but Myeongsaek could not have been more rude to the Immortal King’s subordinate when he came to seek cooperation.

Siana heaved a sigh of relief, raised her head and glared at Hela.

‘Of course. Just that power. That’s from the same clan as me…’

There was something different about her that made her a complete succubus, so it was a little late to realize, but now I can be sure.

The fact that the other person also shares the same origin as you.

‘But that is that and this is this.’

It was a separate issue from my curiosity about that woman named Hella.

Even though there was an immortal king here, my pride was so damaged that I couldn’t just leave without saying a word.

Sianna looked directly at Hela and opened her mouth confidently.

“Hey… can I call you sister?”

In a shy voice that does not match the expression.

It’s a shame for a succubus to be swayed by someone else’s temptation, but if it’s the ‘big sister’ of the same clan, it’s not a problem at all!

Hela responded with a smile to Siana, who was wiggling her fingers like a girl with that thought in mind.

“no.”

A word that feels like a certain belief, as if that could never be allowed.

While Siana, who had become sullen at the firm answer, was wrinkled, the full-fledged meeting finally began.

To overcome the chaotic political situation in the demon world and establish the true demon king.

For the progress of ‘The Demon Lord’s Return’.

***

Since ancient times, cross-verification has been essential when collecting information.

Even if the person testifying believes it to be true, doesn’t anyone know if it’s really true?

In that sense, Shianna’s testimony following Ken and Frances was very helpful in understanding the situation in the demon world from various perspectives.

Above all, the faction her clan belonged to was in a hostile relationship with the other two demon factions.

‘I said that the faction that is being pushed back helplessly right now is the faction that Siana belongs to.’

The situation in the demon world was more complicated than expected.

The election of the 15th Demon King, which was promoted after the 14th Demon King Leraye invaded the continent and was subjugated, was carried out without any major problems.

Of course, the process was not very peaceful, as the law of the Demon World states that the person who takes the position to the best of his ability becomes the Demon King, regardless of whether it is personal force, influence, or popularity.

Still, it is also true that we succeeded in reaching everyone’s agreement anyway.

The problem began when the 15th Demon King suddenly disappeared shortly after taking the throne.

In fact, the demons were not very responsible, so at first they did not pay much attention, thinking that they had gone out somewhere, but as the vacancy lasted not only for decades but also for more than a hundred years, the matter was bound to escalate.

The unprecedented disappearance of a demon lord in the history of the demon world.

It was natural that it led to confusion.

Various factions rose up to become the next Demon King, and the faction that still supported the 15th Demon King did not back down and fought against it.

That was the war mentioned above that lasted for hundreds of years.

‘But that can’t be all.’

In fact, it was not uncommon for war to break out in the demon world where fighting was a daily occurrence.

Didn’t most of the past demon kings go through a similar process to reach their positions?

However, the fact that the war that broke out right after the former Demon King disappeared turned into such an unprecedentedly large war…

‘Something is unnatural. ‘Unless there is artificial external intervention.’

And that is probably the culprit that made me feel uncomfortable.

Actually, I had a rough guess.

‘If you think there’s a big problem in Outerica, it’s reasonable to suspect that person first.’

How many years did it take for you to arrive on this earth and face and resolve various incidents?

This was all a judgment based on experience.

?The Imprisoned Divine Fragment of XXX (15,500,000)?

There was a lot of evidence like this.

‘When I first saw it, it was worth 30 million, but now it has shrunk by almost half.’

In addition, most of the phrases that were not properly readable had been revealed.

Well, it was obvious what that one remaining word was.

‘Are you saying that number decreased the moment I arrived here?’

The number of points required has steadily decreased as I have been involved with him several times, but it only happened a few minutes ago that the number dropped to almost half.

“It’s a strange feeling. “It definitely feels similar to ‘The World of Macheon.’”

Hela slowly raised her head and looked up at the sky.

It must have been daytime, but there was no celestial body like the sun, just a purple sky shining softly and illuminating the ground.

And even the Milky Way in the night sky visible beyond the torn sky as if something had cut through the middle of it.

“…No matter how you look at that, it’s a sword mark, right?”

A dry wind passed by Hela’s ears as she looked blankly at the traces carved in the sky.

The negative energy filling the air was boosting my body’s strength, but in front of that majestic scene, it only felt insignificant.

‘It was a nice sight. ‘I’m glad you came.’

After doing this for a while, she smiled vaguely and slowly walked away.

To a place where you can see a castle wall made of black stone beyond the horizon.

A wide wilderness with blackened earth and no trees.

This land that Hella is currently stepping on is the home of demons.

It was the demon world that would soon become his hometown.

***

Hela narrowed her eyes and stared at the castle gate in front of her.

‘First, we need to find out where this place is.’

Coming to the Demon World itself wasn’t that difficult.

After all, the Immortal King and the Demon King have joined hands, so there’s no way the dimensional barrier that blocks the Demon World will get in the way, right?

The problem was that I couldn’t choose my destination point after that.

Anyway, it was my first time coming to this country.

‘It would have been more convenient if I could have come with the other guys as scheduled.’

The current situation of falling into the demon world alone was not originally planned.

Why would he come to a foreign country alone and hit the ground running when there are two locals and one immigrant who can guide him?

‘I thought something would be different if you moved with me, but it ended up being like this.’

Unlike himself, who was a demon lord and a first-time traveler, they descended on the continent through an official route.

Of course, the coordinates to return to when returning were already recorded, and naturally, as soon as the dimensional barrier of the demon world was crossed, those coordinates were sent.

Leaving Hella alone in this lonely place.

“There’s nothing we can do. “It’s not the first time I’ve fallen into another world alone.”

In addition, there is not enough force, but it is overflowing.

Hela lightly shrugged her shoulders and confidently entered the castle gate.

“huh?”

“Hey look over there.”

“Huh?!”

The attention of the demons around the castle gate focused on this.

Starting with a frog-like guy, a giant quadrupedal dinosaur that looks to be 4 meters tall, and a figure whose entire body is made of smoke, etc.

Indeed, they were so colorful that the word “devil” came to mind.

‘They look amazing. It’s like I’m at a zoo.’

I guess there is no need to go through the trouble of mimicking someone else in the demon world.

If you flinch at times like this, you will look more suspicious.

Hela straightened her shoulders and walked forward, trying to look as confident as possible.

‘are you okay. ‘Because I mimicked it so as not to stand out as much as possible.’

That was also the effect of ‘Gyeonggukjisaek’.

If something has long been called ‘a beauty that will destroy a nation’, it should be able to satisfy any aesthetic taste.

Although it had the limitation of only being able to change into the appearance of a beautiful woman, it was enough to cover up unique features such as horns and winged eyes.

‘Thanks to practicing with Sianna, I was able to better control the energy of fascination.’

If he were to completely hide his unique charm, a pretty humanoid demon wouldn’t be of much interest in a place teeming with all kinds of demons.

Wouldn’t it just be the sentiment of a pretty cat or dog?

“Please wait just a moment!”

But it seems that was just his own thought.

A Doberman-headed demon who seemed to be in charge of security at this castle pointed this way and quickly approached.

With a large number of demons at the back.

“What brought you from Coatl Street to Dalun’s territory? “We haven’t received any communication.”

Then, he looked at Hela and asked a question whose meaning was unclear in a subtly polite tone.

A voice that seems to be suppressing tension and burden.

I checked the surroundings quietly to make sure it wasn’t noticeable, but as expected, there was no one else around.

‘If it’s the Coatl family… it’s one of the central powers that has the upper hand in the current war, right? ‘Why did you think I was part of it?’

It was a name I heard at first glance when gathering information.

It is said to be a faction that holds a fairly large stake in the faction that Ken and Frances belong to.

Hela quickly grasped the situation without showing it off as much as possible.

There must be some reason why they misunderstood.

I wouldn’t say something like that to someone I’m just meeting for the first time without any basis.

However, the Doberman-headed devil swallowed his saliva and spoke again in a more cautious tone.

“…I’ll take you inside first. Seeing that you came dressed in combat uniform, I think you misunderstood something. Shouldn’t you give us a chance to explain? “Please just give me a moment.”

battle dress.

Hela glanced down at those words and looked at the clothes she was wearing.

A magic tool from Mt. Magye that I retrieved from the “Golden Treasury” before coming here.

Since I didn’t have any clothes to wear and was going to the demon world, I just found the clothes that fit best and wore them…

‘Was this something from the Coatl family?’

It also seemed to be a combat uniform symbolizing a high-ranking person.

It was somehow very comfortable and had various effects.

‘Those guys should have told me about this sooner.’

Anyway, resolving this situation came first for now.

A situation where an unexpected misunderstanding occurred.

Hela let out a small sigh and opened her mouth, looking straight at the Doberman in front of her.

“Guide me.”

In an arrogant voice that seems to be ingrained in you.

“…Yes, yes. “This way. I told you before coming, so I’m sure they’re ready to welcome guests inside.”

“Hmm, let’s see how much we’ve prepared.”

The demon lord Hela descended here in person to devour the demon world.

If an opportunity comes, don’t miss it.
