The Player Hides His Past

◈ Episode 562. What you need to do is attract (2)

Magic Tower.

Crowds flocking.

someone said

“Do you all think this makes sense?”

It was clear that he was dumbfounded from the first word.

“No, that’s right. It is said that among the Ten Demon Lords, there may be at least one with a weird head. So let’s say they can come out friendly to us. “Anyway, this doesn’t make any sense, right?”

Demon King Barbatos.

He accepted the offer.

Worldwide Arcana TV program.

An offer to appear on VBC’s Today Arcana!

A large tablet being thrust into someone’s face.

In the screen, there was Barbatos surrounded by reporters.

-“I respond happily. “To restore the broken trust between humans and demons.”

Is it okay to be this shameless?

“Trust is all about trust. “Do you know what that thing can do…!”

“That’s why everyone is gathering at the Magic Tower, right~?”

A drooping horse’s tail.

The unique voice made it possible to guess its identity without having to turn one’s head. This is Camilla from The Shining. The crowd’s attention was focused on the appearance of the named player.

“It’s crazy Camilla. “This is my first time seeing the real thing.”

“How does it seem like it’s been such a long time?”

After Rox’s fall and withdrawal.

“It’s been a while, everyone~”

It was Shining who continued the siege.

Compared to the lost abilities, the hideout in Seoul, the land of strangeness, is too much.

The reason is that he owns numerous territories.

However, Camilla’s unique slyness still remained.

“As you know, I was so busy that I was a bit absent, right?”

As you can see, The Shining did not collapse.

This means that even if Rox did not return and Camilla was away, the team continued to win so overwhelmingly that no one could attack Shining’s hideout anymore.

“I got hit by people here and there.”

Is it because of a series of experiences?

Camilla saw this situation as a complicated battle of numbers.

He continued talking while smoothing his cracked fingernails.

“Even if Barbatos has a plan, will he be able to do whatever he wants inside the Magic Tower? Even if you want to use the demon’s unique status ailment, what if the camera is filming everything? Well, as long as you don’t go crazy.”

“You will definitely notice the change right away!”

“is it so. “As soon as something suspicious appears.”

Sigh.

“Take a picture.”

Camilla pretended to slit her throat with her fingers.

From the perspective of others, it is no different from usual.

It was a mixture of leisure and playfulness.

This was a desperate act.

At this moment, Camilla could barely contain herself.

‘…Maybe it’s an opportunity.’

A fantasy that repeats countless times in my head.

In the heart of Barbatos.

Picture yourself inserting this arrow.

‘Dmitri.’

Devil especially.

It was the Ten Pillars that drove Dmitry to death.

Monsters in the cracks that flowed back due to their appearance.

Because Dmitri lost his life to those guys.

The crowd chatter among themselves.

“After listening to what Camilla said, it certainly seems like we have nothing to lose, right? First of all, Barbatos accepted all the conditions, right?”

“You can get information through 100 questions and 100 answers…”

“More than anything, aren’t you looking forward to what kind of questions will be asked? “I think the wizards of the Magic Tower, the players, and finally, Commander Lee Ho-yeol, have a lot to say.”

…Yeah, everyone is thinking that way.

Dmitri, it seems like there’s no one here who remembers you.

Camilla clenched her fists so that no one could see them.

‘Barvatos, you’re really not an ordinary devil?’

Barbatos.

Ever since the update details came to mind.

It has never once shown a hostile attitude towards humanity. But Camilla was putting herself to the test. Because my insides were shaking more than when I faced any enemy.

‘So please watch over me.’

Even herself.

‘Please stay with me and stop me, Jessie.’

So much so that it is considered dangerous.

*

A separate room of the Magic Tower Healing School.

“No! “Are you out of your mind, Senior Benshi?”

“Me? What? “Bangrit.”

“I said you absolutely have to take it easy?”

The two senior wizards were bickering today.

Even during the healing period.

It was because they didn’t keep their mouths shut.

“Then let’s go first.”

“Ah, I’ll catch up soon.”

“Where should I follow?!”

I was taken care of in a separate room from time to time.

Unlike the other two, Curtain and Maia’s condition had greatly improved. This means that he was able to stand on his own two legs without the help of crutches.

Bangrit, who was feverish, eventually frowned.

“do you know? It’s all because you talked all night with Senior Benshi, and the wound opened up and didn’t heal? “How on earth would it be possible to not shut your mouth for even a few minutes during your waking hours?”

“Tsk tsk.”

“Are you holding your tongue in a situation like this?”

“Bangrit, you are not worthy of a great wizard.”

“…A great wizard? suddenly?”

The essential quality of a great wizard was curiosity.

In order to reach the abstract goal of truth, the passion for exploration must not cool down. Therefore, only infinite curiosity can lead us to the thorny path of truth-seeking!

“Aren’t you curious about Senior Bangrit?”

But for Benshee, that was too much.

Even though I was limping and whining.

William the Banshee begins to put on his clothes.

“What kind of bullshit will Barbatos talk about?”

The Banshee’s pupils blazed like flames.

“You certainly said you would answer any questions, did you? “So now that he’s entering the magic tower, isn’t this the perfect opportunity to satisfy my curiosity?”

“What kind of question do you want to ask?”

“First, I’ll ask you how you felt.”

“…yes?”

Of course, the flame was not simply hot.

What was in the Banshee’s pupils was hot yet cool anger.

“Do you truly feel thrilling joy when you deceive people?”

“…Senior Benshi.”

“When they take away the bodies of their parents and kill their children with the hands of the parents, does the voice of the parents crying inside truly sound like sweet music to them?”

“….”

“Do you really laugh out of happiness when you ruthlessly tear apart a human begging for his life? “I can’t help but wonder, Bangrit.”

Imperial Palace Wizard Nash William.

-“I’m sorry, but your father…”

It was a Benshi who had heard about the family indirectly through his younger brother. Now that I have entered the Magic Tower and become a senior mage. Although the relationship with the William family was severed, such was the affection of blood relatives.

Banshee smiled at Bangrit, who had become serious.

“I know what concerns you, Bangrit. But I’m literally just curious. “Because Barbatos mentioned the trust between humans and demons.”

Bensh spoke and thought at the same time.

‘If you are sincere.’

How should I deal with the devil?

My ability exists to completely burn something down.

Where and how should I use it?

‘Furthermore, the debt between the Magic Tower and the family…’

I wanted to find the answer.

“So let’s go together, Bangrit. Crystal alone.”

“…Your words are becoming more and more believable.”

“It’s a compliment, right? By the way, if you were dressed like that, would you just walk away and pretend not to notice? Barbatos is not enough. Crowds are flocking from all directions, so shouldn’t you be careful like a senior? “The way you dress.”

.

.

.

Okay.

In front of the mirror, I adjust my appearance as always.

A six-point brooch that shines in a mirror.

I thought as I sorted out the brooches.

‘It’s a completely new pattern.’

A demon that harbors no hostility toward humans.

That’s also the ten seats.

I’ve been saying something is different since Paimon.

Barbatos felt like he had gone one step further.

‘Just as Paimon had a favor for me.’

Does Barbatos have a favor beyond me, towards reality and the entire Arcana Continent? In times like this, what was needed was knowledge of the demon world. For the first time in a while, I picked up some loot.

[True Necronomicon, the Bible of the Demon World] [Class: Epic] [Restriction: Only beings of the Demon World can read it.] [Effect: When understood, knowledge about the Demon World is acquired.] [Explanation: Demon World A book written by Rich Diskus. It describes how to survive in a demonic world invaded by demons. In addition, it is a certificate that allows entry to Discus’ resting place in the dangerous demon world.]

Discus.

An undead strong enough to threaten Buer, the tenth king of the throne. Discus knew a lot about the Ten Seas as it was eagerly aiming for the position of the Ten Seas.

‘but.’

There was no information about Barbatos.

The reason was simple. This is because Barbatos failed to attract Discus’ attention. In this thick book, Discus’s evaluation of Barbatos was only one line.

──────

A coward worthy of the name of the Ten Seas.

──────

It’s definitely a cowardly move, isn’t it?

‘By becoming a devil.’

The devil is doing things that are unbelievable. But I didn’t overlook it. Because of my occupational disease, I couldn’t let my guard down even if I wanted to.

[Class: Demon Hunter]

A smell lingering at the tip of my nose.

It was definitely the incense of the ten thrones.

It was a different level of malice.

‘We must never forget the battle to conquer the Demon Lord.’

No matter how easy it looks.

Barbatos was the 8th-ranked Sipjwa.

Even if that is the case with Paimon.

This means that he was stronger than Buer.

‘You can tell when you see it in the first place, right?’

Should we set aside subjective evaluations and only look at objective facts? Barbatos entered reality from the Demon World to the Arcana Continent alone.

‘Without a proper offering.’

Right in front of where the Allied Crusade forces had gathered.

If that’s not enough, what else? You even confidently gave an interview in front of reporters to appear on Today Arcana. Granfell I think I understand why you’ve lost your appetite.

‘More unpleasant than any demon.’

At this moment the world was talking.

-Will a new chapter of harmony be opened? Barbatos’ Decision

-Barvatos “Not all devils are the same.”

-Barbatos “What is the standard of evil?”

-Barvatos “I want peace.”

-AAU “We are closely monitoring the current situation… We will not let down our guard.”

The possibility of a new era opening through Barbatos.

You can’t criticize the world and say that it’s being deceived by the devil again.

Barbatos was the only demon who showed such an attitude so far.

even.

‘Even a system that doesn’t lie.’

You proved Barbatos’ innocence, right?

That’s why I fully understood Granfell’s feelings.

I gritted my teeth inwardly.

‘He took the initiative without a fight.’

Why are you still watching?

According to Barbatos’ intentions.

Because a large number of people were gathering at the Magic Tower.

‘Are you really the Demon King of the Ten Seas?’

The fact that he has maintained his position as the Tenth Chair despite being called a coward probably means that he has specialized abilities in other areas. But you overlooked one thing, Barbatos.

Again.

I don’t know anything else. It means that it was your mistake to accept the offer of 100 questions and 100 answers at the Magic Tower Crystal Hall. Yes, thanks to you for accepting that ridiculous offer, I…

“If it is formal, I will respond according to the procedures.”

It doesn’t go against his formality.

I can see through your inner thoughts.

Because you have a golden opportunity!

If you ask how that is possible.

I will kindly recite the rules of the thick magic tower.

‘No matter how much you voyeurized me with your demon eyes.’

You probably didn’t spy on me reading the rules, right?

That means.

You don’t know anything about the magic tower’s procedures!

Yes.

Only those qualified to answer questions in Crystal Hall.

It is only given to those who have passed the ordeal of the Topaz Hall.

This means that it will be shown here as well.

Even more than the devil.

Perhaps even more vicious than those at the broadcasting station.

Among wizards ahead of a regular conference.

Our Granfell’s notoriety…!!

“We will begin preliminary verification from this time.”
