The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life

Chapter 457 Epilogue, New Days (1)

In a cave where people cannot reach.

A man with his entire upper body exposed, taking a ray of light as his friend, was brandishing a sword.

hook.

hook hook.

It was intense.

The blow that cut through the wind was very consistent, and with each swing of the sword, the muscles of the whole body twitched as if they were going to explode.

Age is over 40 years old. The traces of the years were visible between the thick beard.

If the people of Cairo had heard his name, they would have wide-eyed that he was alive.

Balon.

It was his name.

To the extent that he was once nicknamed the Next Nicholas, he was a master who quickly caught up behind Count Nicholas, who was the number one sword in Cairo.

A 4-star swordsman 10 years ago, he suddenly disappeared.

People disagreed that he must have been dead, but surprisingly, Balon hadn’t left the cave from the time he went missing until now.

Kurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

An aura rose from the sword.

Looking at the increasingly intense light, Balon recalled the culprit who drove him into a predicament.

‘Kronos. I can never forgive you.’

10 years ago.

On the Western Front, he lost his only blood relative, his brother.

Watching his brother die in Cronus’s sudden attack, Balon felt as if the sky was collapsing.

It was from then. He was determined to get revenge on Kronos.

Since Cairo, a small country, could not borrow the power, the only way was to cultivate personal power and assassinate the emperor.

Started closing training.

He stored enough food in the sub-space and from that day 10 years ago until now, he has been immersed in training like crazy.

It finally paid off.

When I was outside, I entered a five-star level that seemed far away, and a few days ago, I stepped into a higher level.

It was Count Nicholas’ advice.

Balon, who was told that in order to deal with Cronus, he had to become an aura swordsman of at least 6 stars, set that level as his goal of revenge.

Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

The aura was explosively amplified.

6 star aura.

It was fantastic.

Balon clenched his sword tightly with a ferocious expression at the light that lit up the entire cave.

‘I haven’t neglected a single day of training for the past 10 years for this day. You won’t be able to deal with all the monsters of the Cronus Empire with a 6-star level. However, as we have been waiting for 10 years, we will destroy all of Kronos one by one from now on. And when they finally reach the emperor, he will engrave on his bones how precious the life of an ant he will never remember.’

succumbed to evil

The time has come.

Now it was time to go out into the world and let out the rage that had been suppressed for so long.

“Wait Kronos.”

Quaang!

Kurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

collapsed the cave

In that space where no trace can be found anymore, there were no more humans mad for revenge.

* * *

“… yes?”

Balon reacted stunned.

It was said that the rivers and mountains would change in 10 years, but I couldn’t accept the words of the restaurant owner.

“This man. Did you even draw a line from the world and live for 10 years? The Kronos Empire you speak of has long since collapsed. In the war with Dmitri, Cronus and the emperor of Valhalla died, and now it has been replaced by a new power system following Dmitri. What a funny person. Especially since His Majesty Emperor Roman Dmitri succeeded in conquering the Demon Realm three years ago, all countries and people on the continent recognize him as a true leader.”

My head was spinning tight.

Continent Conquest.

demon conquest.

I couldn’t accept any of them.

At the time Balon was active, Cronus and Valhalla were called the two major mountain ranges of the continent, and Dmitri was just a territory on the periphery.

And who the hell is Roman Dmitry?

I knew that he was born in Dmitry, but when I heard that he had risen to the position of emperor, my head got tangled up.

For once, I was speechless.

Listening to the owner of the restaurant, he said that the world has changed a lot since the conquest of the demon world.

“It was great. Moving on to a world that no hero has ever encountered, His Majesty Roman Dmitry accomplished the great feat of conquering the Demon Realm. But what makes him really great is what happened after that. His Majesty the Emperor did not pursue dictatorial politics like Cronus, but pursued a policy in which the people of all countries could coexist. Of course, anyone who violated Dmitry’s laws was severely punished, regardless of status. And do you see that guy over there?”

I looked away.

He was a man with an impressive belly, and he raised his glass and chatted loudly.

“He’s a soldier who participated in the conquest of the demon realm. As far as I know, he was a guy with no wealth, but he received a huge amount of war compensation money and is living like that. Those are the pants that the world ruled by Dmitri seeks. sure reward. A world where those who work and put in effort can receive a corresponding reward. I don’t know what you’ve been doing all these years, but I’ve never experienced a better world than this.”

Balon grew more and more serious as he listened to the conversation.

last 10 years.

He was desperate for revenge.

However, when he came to the world, all the revenge was achieved and the world became a utopia.

Everything the restaurant owner says may not be true.

But the bustling city I witnessed on my way to the restaurant, and the happy faces of the people, told me just how well Roman Dmitri ruled the world.

Emotions were complicated. At least in the world Balon remembers, inequality was natural, and no matter how hard he tried, the rewards never came.

In particular, Cronus had no hesitation in trampling on others for his own gain.

The world has changed.

People’s happy faces.

A voice laughing and talking.

The target of revenge was lost.

When Balon couldn’t accept the reality in great confusion, the voice of the restaurant owner pierced his ears.

“That person over there is the one who passed the Dmitri Guards this time. He’s originally from Cairo, but he ended up joining the SS, which he had longed for. That’s not great. For those of you who didn’t even know that Kronos had fallen, I don’t know what that means, but Dmitri’s bodyguard is a dream that all prosecutors on the continent now yearn for. Being there also means that you have enough skills that you don’t have to prove it through rankings. and… Hey, where are you going?”

Jump up.

got up from the seat

No matter what the restaurant owner said or not, Balon needed to clear the mess that was cluttering his head.

If everything you’ve heard so far is true.

A person who was accepted into the Dmitry Guards Corps would have had that level of skill.

And no matter how strong the opponent was, he never thought that he, who had trained for revenge, would lose.

tall.

I stopped walking.

As the opponent looked at him suspiciously, Balon threw the bag of gold coins he had been saving onto the table.

Took.

“Let’s hang out with me. If you win, I will give you all these gold coins.”

* * *

Came out.

The man who had passed the SS accepted the match, and Balon and the man faced each other as people flocked to them.

There were no rules.

When they agreed to stick together in a way that would not harm each other’s lives, Balon immediately rushed at the other.

‘It ends quickly.’

Kwalung.

Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Quick battle.

I had no intention of making it long.

I didn’t think that a swordsman who had passed the general SS could stop it because it was at the level of a continental ranker with a 6-star sword.

One blow was enough.

Balon, who had narrowed the distance with his opponent in an instant, witnessed an unbelievable sight the moment he tried to attack in a surprise attack.

Flash.

Quaang!

A reaction arose.

Even if it wasn’t full power, he expressed a 6-star aura, but he felt like he was being pushed out of his power.

‘What is this?!’

My brain got complicated.

There was no time to figure out the situation.

The guardsman smiled and pushed Balon hard before he came to his senses.

Caang!

Kaka Kaka Kakang!

I was pushed helplessly.

He was not pushed back in terms of aura and skills.

But it was strange.

The man’s swordsmanship had a clear system, and when he reacted to it, he had no choice but to take a bad direction without even realizing it.

I was annoyed. It wasn’t that he had been training to defeat ordinary swordsmen who could barely be found.

He countered all of the men’s attacks that kept coming in, and took advantage of the momentary gap to explode his magic.

‘It’s a game.’

Kurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

blow.

I was thinking of ending it.

Just when he was about to press down the opponent with an aura, Balon felt like the sky and the earth were reversed.

Beetle.

hook.

The body floated.

The attack that hit his leg made him roll on the ground without a chance to do anything about it.

Quadang!

“… Keugh.”

It was disastrous.

More than the pain that surged through his body, Balon couldn’t believe that he had been defeated so pointlessly.

The absurd thing is that the opponent is not overwhelmingly strong.

Apparently, he had the power to defeat his opponent, but strangely, he fell to the floor before he could do anything right.

over your head.

A man’s voice was heard.

“There are people who insist on that classic style these days. You worked hard. If I had at least some understanding of Dmitri’s methods, I wouldn’t have won so easily.”

At that time, I had to admit it.

Dmitry’s way.

The world has changed.

Perfect too.

* * *

The day was over.

Arriving at the National Cemetery, Balon looked at the well-maintained cemetery and showed mixed eyes.

[Count Nicholas]

“… Count. What the hell happened?”

My mind is a bit clearer now.

The fact that an unprecedented hero named Roman Dmitri appeared and conquered the world by founding the Dmitri Empire.

It was a complicated feeling. He could neither rejoice nor grieve that the vengeance he should have taken had already been taken.

sure thing.

Revenge is over.

The goal was gone, and Count Nicholas, with whom he had once had a good relationship, no longer existed.

“I still don’t quite believe it. The fact that the continent’s two major mountain ranges, which seemed to never collapse, fell to their knees in just a few years, and the fact that mere humans conquered the Pandemonium. If the hundred people I met hadn’t all said the same thing, I would have thought Cairo was tainted by a cult. the day my brother died. Count Nicholas told me. never give up Nothing is eternal in this world, and Kronos will not be eternal either.”

smiled bitterly.

Now that he had lost his purpose in life, all he could do was grumble like this.

“The Count was right. Kronos collapsed because he couldn’t handle the karma. Even though I couldn’t do anything yet, the order of the world drove Kronos to the path of ruin. How am I supposed to live in the future? There is no reason to live in a world where there is no family and no object of revenge.”

It felt hollow.

I’ve been living for 10 years after seeing only one, but my efforts so far couldn’t be used for anything.

The simple fact that Cronus was destroyed. There was no way to soothe the empty feelings with that fact alone.

It was then.

A chuckle was heard from behind.

Instinctively, Balon turned his head and his eyes widened as he saw the group approaching the graveyard.

“… Balon?”

It was a memory gap.

He was just a boy 10 years ago.

Daniel Cairo, who was a weak child, appeared before his eyes as a being worthy of the king’s position.
