The Crazy Demigod Returns

launching ceremony

The voice, amplified by amplification magic, was reverberating throughout the outer walls of the Bahala Empire, where hundreds of thousands of people were concentrated.

-Lon Bahala, emperor of the great Bahala Empire, has commanded, this is the will of the Pan continent… !

Normally, servants of the inner and outer castles, nobles with titles, and their attendants. The imperial castle of the Bahala Empire, where only those with a clear identity can enter.

A part of the outer castle that is special today. The place where the event was held was open to the people.

The reason is none other than a large-scale launch ceremony. It was also the only empire launched in 100 years in the history of the Pan continent.

However, unlike the usual launch ceremony that solemnly declares war and builds up momentum, the scene exuded a festive atmosphere like a military parade showing off majesty.

This is because the direction of the blades of the elite troops of the Bahala Empire is limited to one existence, not another country, at least right now.

Demon and fear of Pan continent. A mighty force that freezes all continents, and one who is called providence itself.

An unidentified man whose single-mindedness is so high that he becomes an inviolable sanctuary, not a public achievement, even if he walks the opposite path to the entire continent.

Only known acts span hundreds of years. A mysterious being that transcends human limits.

This launching ceremony was a historic occasion in which the empire broke the taboo of the continent for the first time in 100 years and declared war on a single man.

It was also the reason why the launching ceremony of the Bahala Empire, one of the major powers of the Pan continent, was held like a huge annual event, and dozens of high-ranking nobles from other countries came and gave blessings.

Whatever the outcome, they had nothing to avoid, so it became an event that all the continental powers crossed the river and admired.

– The great Emperor Ron Bahala no longer controls not only our empire, but also numerous kingdoms and principalities. He declared that all nations of the Pan continent should not repeat the history of being oppressed by the devil and shedding blood.

“Wow!”

“Peace on the continent!”

Every time the speaker of the empire read a speech paragraph by paragraph, tremendous cheers erupted from the huge band of people surrounding the ceremony.

The troops who went out with the justification of fighting for the cause stood up proudly every time they did, and the atmosphere at the scene became more and more ripe.

And the highest podium from which all the sights can be seen together.

A smile did not leave the faces of the young emperor of the Empire, Ron Bahala, and other high-ranking nobles and envoys from various kingdoms.

“I wondered why His Majesty the Emperor made such a sudden decision to go out, but looking at these troops, my doubts are cleared. hahahaha!”

The duke of the kingdom of Bill, which was located closest to the empire, flattered the emperor.

“Listen, there are eight sixth ranks, including the Duke of Bahrain, right? It is a tremendous power that is only possible because it is the Bahala Empire.”

The circumstances in which you can sit down and talk with the emperor are extremely limited. Especially if it is a greeting from a foreign country.

Therefore, for those who came as an envoy or a congratulatory group, the underlying idea was to plant a good image of the motherland by adding even a word.

If the Empire succeeds in slaying the demon of the real version. Because the empire will be able to build a success that is one level higher than that of the continent.

However, apart from that background, it was not at all like flattery or false words that they were talking about.

6 tier. Only one person on the current continent. No, except for one existence that might be human, it is practically the pinnacle of martial arts.

The body is reconstructed through the round bone metamorphosis and the half-way round, and the body is rejuvenated and at the same time, experiences optimization regarding nothingness and uses its own technique, Ganggi.

It can slaughter hundreds of enemies in a day, and can’t even be stopped unless it’s the same strong 6th tier magic or magic. A one-man corps distinguished by the nation’s asymmetric power.

In the case of a small principality or kingdom, it has the power to become the central force of the country immediately if it is committed. They were such beings.

Even after searching the entire continent, there are as many as 8 soldiers of the 6th rank who are less than 30 known. to kill just one person.

It was a bonus that the minimum standard for dispatched troops was an unmanned soldier of 1st rank or higher. That is, there are no ordinary soldiers.

The 5th rank, which uses the sword skill, also reached the level of spirit, and the number of the 4th rank, which is inferior to that but knows how to pull out the spirit, exceeded a thousand.

Feeling mana, strengthening the body with it, and simply putting it in an arsenal, from the 1st to the 3rd tier, the number is close to 10,000.

It was an enormous force that could collapse as soon as a decent kingdom faced each other.

So, it was only natural that there would be admiration, even if it wasn’t flattery. The aristocrats just spit it out with their mouths, saying it was a red skirt.

“I’m sure the demon of Pan will be killed at the hands of the Bahala Empire this time.”

“I don’t know what enchantment I used to live for hundreds of years and gain such power… . It’s absurd to fight and win against such an army! cancer!”

He last appeared more than 100 years ago.

The last time the Continental War broke out was to destroy the states and institutions that were the subjects.

Now, those who have experienced that time do not become exhausted even if they search the entire continent.

And most of those who were less than ten were currently in the 6th hierarchy, holding important positions in the country or heads of large organizations.

In a way, it is natural that humans had to go through the continental war 100 years ago and extend their lifespan by climbing to the 6th tier in order to survive.

Interestingly, neither they nor any of the countries or organizations they belonged to sent congratulations or letters.

Of course, even if it was not the mouth of a survivor, it was something that could be sufficiently inferred through oral tradition and books about 100 years ago. I could also recall the horror of that time.

But now most countries on the continent. And the real power of those countries, the Bahala Empire. More precisely, Ron Bahala, the young emperor who had been crowned the previous year, did not believe.

and ignored

Currently, there is almost no information on the continent beyond the 6th hierarchy.

The 7th hierarchy that appeared throughout the 7700-year-old continent’s history would be only ten. Even with simple calculations, it appeared once in over a thousand years.

Among them, the only person who appeared most recently and assumed to be alive was the so-called ‘Pan’s Demon’ they wanted to kill.

During the Continental War 100 years ago.

There was an oral tradition that when he destroyed one of the warring states, he killed everyone in the castle with only his will.

Legend has it that thousands of people were cut in half without swinging a sword.

Through such things, I expect that it is not the 7th tier that completely masters the strength and furthermore uses the mind sword. That’s just the kind of situation.

Even if the devil of the pan is the 8th tier or higher, it’s natural that anyone doesn’t believe or want to believe.

In such a situation, the prosperity of the empire in the peace enjoyed as a fisherman for 100 years really pierced the sky, so he was full of confidence.

Not just his military force, why he hated the war of aggression so much, why the subject countries were destroyed, and now there are more twisted lies than the truth, making it difficult to distinguish the true intentions.

In short, I felt that it was worth trying. It’d be better if he died silently.

The young emperor said with a solemn expression.

“I myself am well aware of the differences between the warriors and the first rank. The Empire tentatively concluded that he was reaching the end of the 7th tier as well.”

A 4th tier warrior who has just started releasing energy and draws out a swordsman cannot beat a 5th tier fighter who can use sword energy.

Even if environmental factors or situations make us laugh during battle, the general consensus is that a much larger number is needed to become friends. It was almost like an absolute proposition.

According to a similar logic, as a hierarchy rises, its strength explodes exponentially. This means that mathematical logic such as 1+1=2 simply does not work in the realm of nothingness.

Even so, aiming for Donggwieung with a pincer attack using a large number of people or a method of depleting physical strength is only limited to the 5th rank.

It was because they went through circle expansion and metamorphosis from the 6th rank onwards.

In general, up to the 5th tier, warriors build up mana and create circles before the bottom, and wizards before stopping. Depending on the number of these circles, the hierarchy was determined and the realm that could be displayed changed.

However, after reaching the 6th tier and undergoing the Phantasmal Metamorphosis, the body is optimized for mana accumulation. This means that it is possible to accumulate mana in other places as well, escaping from the limits of the circle limited to lower end battle and middle battle.

For this reason, even this logic does not work properly from the 6th tier, having a body that has been strengthened by the metamorphosis and freed from the existing mana restrictions.

That was the biggest reason why it was called the highest level in the 6th tier unmanned continent.

Even so, the young emperor of Bahala never thought that the 10,000 elites in front of him would ever lose against the warriors at the end of the 7th hierarchy. In fact, he was showing off his majesty.

“The things he did in the Continental War 100 years ago? No matter how you look at it, it is inflated with fear. And at that time, the small and medium kingdoms that were ambushed in disarray and the prepared troops of my empire are on a different level. If you fight properly, you’re not an opponent you can’t overcome.”

The high-ranking nobles sitting around also agreed and responded to the emperor’s words. Because their thoughts were never different.

-Our empire has built enormous power based on the peace that the previous emperor achieved for 100 years. And the great Lone Bahala, who inherited all of them, declared that he would be the first to judge evil for the well-being and peace of the continent… .

While the atmosphere of the ceremony continued to rise like that.

The opposite side farthest from the podium where the emperor and high-ranking nobles from each country sat as envoys. A strange change began to occur in a group of grassroots that formed a huge human belt.

* * *

The part of the human belt densely filled with commoners like Shiru. And among them, the outermost outskirts of the crowd.

A child looked around, accidentally looked back and opened his eyes wide.

It was because a man walking with a huge ink-colored sword that was just right at eye level came into sight.

“Mom, that’s a huge knife over there!”

“huh? knife?”

A dark ink-colored, flame-sharp blade. A guard part that can accurately cover only the hand holding the grip, and a pommel jewel that glamorously shows off a dark red color like hardened blood.

A characteristic of a child who doesn’t often see a sword. And it was a very natural action that felt strange at the unusual appearance of the sword.

However, the behavior of the parents who questioned the child’s words and looked back was the exact opposite.

“Hey, come here! don’t look… hurry!”

The child’s parents were wise and commoners.

Instead of screaming to attract attention and create a boil, I tried to leave quickly while holding my child’s hand tightly.

The two hats, trying to break through the crowd and leave, inevitably collided with many people.

“Ayyyyy… what?”

“Let’s not push it!”

Because of the hat’s actions, there was naturally a commotion around them.

“Now, wait… that… .”

“honey! knife! It’s a knife!”

Among the people who were pushed, those who looked back and spit out one word at a time. As soon as some of them confirmed the man, a commotion began to spread.

With normal common sense, showing the blade of a sword could only be thought of as the purpose of using it.

“Rain, get out of the way!”

“attack… It’s an attack! You are the devil’s follower!”

Commoners who are confused. It wasn’t because he was afraid of a man who simply drew a sword without a scabbard.

It is a pan continent that warriors and wizards fight monsters, and there are only a million people in the entire continent who make mercenaries their business.

No matter which country you go to, the reality is that there are so many things that people with cold weapons can get hit by their feet.

The problem was the location of this place.

The only empire on the Pan continent. In addition, although it is an outer castle, it is the imperial castle, which is the center and heart of the empire.

Regardless of inner or outer castles, possession of weapons is strictly prohibited in the Imperial Castle. If caught, it belonged to a serious crime that would result in immediate massacre.

The ones who can carry weapons here are the lineage of the imperial family, the owner of the imperial castle. Imperial Knights and Royal Guard guarding them. And there were only a few guards or very few authorized people who had completed thorough verification.

A man walking in the crowd of commoners, dragging a long, deformed, dark black sword on the floor, wearing a strange outfit like a long black robe.

Anyone can see that it doesn’t seem to apply to any of the three situations above. It was normal for you to avoid the seat without doing anything.

Then, someone’s startled voice broke out among the crowd, making the situation serious.

“green onion… The demon of Pan!”

“Pan’s Demon? What are you talking about?”

“Oh, that sword! It’s definitely the same as the one I saw in the book before! A man who carries a long, pitch-black sword without a scabbard… ! Not a follower, but a demon!”

Not all commoners were shunned by books, and Pan’s demon in particular was so widespread that anyone could easily come in contact with it.

It is not strange to find out if there is nothing different from the behavior of the Continental War 100 years ago.

The words of someone who recognized it just in time became the catalyst.
