Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 275

61. The Last Day of the Joseon Continent (4)

Yulgeum stretched out his hands forward and spread them wide to the left and right.

Countless screens and small buttons appeared in the air.

I moved my fingers nonstop. The letters and numbers on the screen became dizzy.

“As expected, the radio waves come from the servants of the stars. “I’ll jam.”

“What is jamming again?”

“It’s interfering.”

“Anyway, just figure it out. “What should we do?”

“The altitude will continue to decrease. “Guide me to a safe place.”

Yulgeum said this and sent a red light towards Jose Continent.

It was a kind of guideline.

Deus and Zeke followed the light and soared into the sky.

Yulgeum interfered with Nezar’s work with his hands and at the same time gave orders to all the dragons living in the temple.

-Exit the city and head to the Jose continent. Protect the humans there!

Numerous dragons, well over 100,000, moved according to her orders.

There were quite a few people who were frightened by the thought of a dragon attack, but after a while, there was no time to even think about it.

A huge earthquake struck the entire Joseon continent.

There was even a tsunami at some point. On the other hand, there were times when the water in the lake disappeared, revealing the bottom in an instant.

The ground was torn, rising and falling dozens of meters.

It was common for a male castle to collapse.

Humans did not know what to do when they faced their first disaster.

But this earthquake was nothing compared to what was happening throughout the Joseon continent.

Deus and Zeke were now nearly 300 kilometers away from each other.

Jose was placing his hand on the underside of the continental plate and

emitting dark particles from the thrust engine at full power.

Yulgeum’s voice rang in Deus’ ears.

—Reduce the output by about 3 percent. If this continues, the continental plate will crash into the ground.

“okay. Is it really any better than that? “If they even cut it in two and threw it away, tens of millions of people would die instantly.”

— It’s still well controlled. The Malkutu Ark has just fallen apart. More weight will be on Zeke’s side, so be careful.

“I’m sure he’ll hold up well.”

It was a mass of more than 1,000 kilometers in diameter.

It made no sense to just lift it.

Therefore, Yulgeum decided to solve the problem in the opposite way.

The roots of the Sephiroth were separated from the continent one by one and settled on the ground.

It was decided to use the power of dragons to protect against a certain amount of shock and damage to the ground on the Jose Continent.

Of course, it was an operation that couldn’t even be imagined if it weren’t for Deus and Zeke

.

They even changed the moon’s orbit.

The two possessed thrusters with much higher output than each of the Sephiroth roots.

At that moment, the Joseon continental plate suddenly began to tilt.

The weight seemed to be out of balance.

The reason it escaped the control of the law was none other than the sea.

The ocean of the Joseon continent, which existed along the outer edge of the tectonic plate, shifted to one side, drastically changing its center of gravity.

It was still only a 2 or 3 degree change, but the focus would become more serious as time passed.

In response to Yulgeum’s urgent request, Deus changed the direction of the nozzle made from the Four Gods of Death.

However, the acceleration had already occurred and the direction could not be changed so easily.

Even though Zeke and Deus did their best, they only slowed down a little.

Yulgeum’s hands were busy tapping the keyboard.

If it could not be controlled even with the power of Deus and Zeke,

there was no other way than to separate the rising Sephiroth roots more quickly.

It would increase the speed of the fall, but it was much better than flipping over.

A text appeared on the screen in front.

-Do you approve?

At that question, she couldn’t move her hand for a few seconds.

Is this a good thing?

Maybe it will stop like this with a little tilt.

Wouldn’t it be possible to save more lives if we control it until the end?

No matter how slowly it fell,

it was only a few meters per second.

It was not possible to predict how the fallen continent of Jose would be distorted based on simulation results alone.

How many people will die?

How many?

How many hundreds of thousands?

I didn’t even know if it could be several million.

Yulgeum’s life came and went because of his own choice.

My heart became cold.

Let’s only think about those who will survive.

Even if ten million people die, the remaining tens of millions can be saved.

Just as she was about to press the OK switch, she saw a ray of light flowing in front of her eyes.

“Kamael!”

The Crimson Fallen Angel Camael flew beyond the horizon.

Immediately after that, a huge wing appeared at the western edge of the continent.

It seemed to be Kamael’s wings.

After she joined, the tilt of the continental plate rapidly stabilized.

Archangel Kamael, former Demon King Deus, hero Zeke, and dragon god Yulgeum.

Four beings who had no reason to hold hands moved for one thing.

It was the role of the law to maintain the cohesion of the Joseon continent so that it would not break up and to separate the Sephiroth roots.

At the same time, the signals that Nezar sent to control the entire Sephiroth root had to be blocked.

Although he did not exert any direct effort, in a sense, Yulgeum was the busiest person right now.

Deus and Zeke used a thruster made from the Four Gods of Death to guide the continent of Jose in one direction.

Kamael, who joined late, also added strength with her wings, one of her powers.

Through the efforts of the three transcendents, the continent gradually lowered its altitude without causing any significant impact.

And as the continent moved away, a great change came to the demon world.

As the solar eclipse came to an end, the sun that had been hidden by the Joseon continent reappeared.

The passages connected to the giant volcano Io and the entrance to the demon world were all cut off.

The Jose Continent now faces the northern border, not above the Demon World.

The dragons used magic to fill the area between the Jose Massif and the ground with dirt.

It would be a lie if it wasn’t shocking.

More than 30% of the buildings built by humans collapsed and precariously standing cliffs fell down on numerous occasions.

There have been several cases where large lakes disappeared and rivers dried up

due to changes in the flow of water .

What more can I say about crops planted by humans?

All ten Sephiroth roots separated from the continent and rose into the sky.

It was Nezar who took possession of all 10 gigantic arks tens of kilometers long.

Yulgeum no longer operated the buttons.

It is enough to prevent the fall of the Joseon continent. I had no intention of arguing with Nezar over ownership of the Sephiroth root

.

Deus, Zeke, and Kamael returned to Yulgeum one by one.

The three of them, exhausted as they were, sat spread out on the floor without saying a word.

I had a lot to say, but I couldn’t get it out of my mouth right away.

I could see the blue sky spreading across the sky.

The sun was there, a light that was so blinding that it was impossible to see it directly. They

decided to rest

under it in silence for a while .

It was a moment where I felt that way.

Lord of the Lord was the name of the elder dragon representing each dragon tribe.

It was the same role as the Seven Dukes of the Demon Race. Among the elders, only one could obtain the title of monarch.

Because it had such powerful magical power, it played a big role in the unprecedented incident of the fall of the Joseon continent.

The rulers of Gyeong reported the situation to Yulgeum and left.

Deus and Zeke Kamael were drinking tea a little away from Yul Geum, who was busy issuing various orders to the monarchs.

A tablecloth decorated with flowers was placed on a white table.

Teapots and drinking bowls were fully equipped, and several snacks and cakes were placed on the dessert stand.

Kamael loved men, drinking, and fighting, but he also enjoyed tea.

The teacup set placed here was brought by Kamael.

“After all, drinking tea after work feels good.”

Kamael put his hands together, lifted the teacup, and brought it to his mouth.

“Why did you come to work again?”

Deus grumbled and Zeke immediately opened his mouth.

“Thanks to Kamael, we overcame a big crisis.”

“If we overcome the crisis too easily, the work we have done becomes cheap.”

Kamael looked at him and said.

“It’s never cheap. Because he saved countless lives on the Joseon Continent and in the Demon World. Even if I share a little, the rest will be enough.”

“What are you doing if it’s expensive? It’s not like anyone would buy it. I should keep it to myself as a memory. “I saved the moon from falling not long ago, but I didn’t get paid for it.”

“If that’s the case, didn’t you bring it on yourself? “It was because of your provocation that Nezar cast a spell to cause a meteorite to hit the moon.”

“Oh, really?”

Deus suddenly seemed confused and tilted his head.

“But I commend you on this one. “You handled it really well.”

“It was a compliment. “What happened to you that brought you here?”

“I went back, but there was nothing to protect.”

“What about the Angels of Destruction?”

“It has no power in itself. It is not a structure that explodes when burned. You have to use the control key to trigger it, but modern humans don’t have that kind of wisdom yet. “ The remaining relics

are useless without basic knowledge of engineering.”

“Has it been maintained like that for hundreds of centuries?”

“Now that I think about it, that’s true. But that doesn’t change the fact that it’s a dangerous product. “I only came like this because it was more dangerous for the Jose Continent to fall.”

“Wasn’t it an angel who wouldn’t abandon his karma even if the world was destroyed?”

“That’s right. “But after getting beaten up by you guys a few times, it looks like some parts inside me have broken down a bit.”

After finishing his work, I saw Yulgeum

walking towards me.

As soon as she got closer, she got angry.

“Oh, I’m pissed. “Do you really have to drink tea like that next to where you work?”

Kamael quietly pushed the car toward her.

Yulgeum sat down and this time put several pieces of cake on the plate.

“It’s Rainbow’s cake.”

“lie!”

“I bought it this morning.”

“The continent of Jose is about to fall!”

“I was lucky. I have been receiving deliveries on a regular basis. “I was enjoying the only indulgence God had given me.”

Kamael added a short explanation for Deus and Zeke, who were dazed because they could not follow their conversation.

“Rainbow is a cake shop in Isolta, northeast of the Jose continent. “It’s also the place that makes the most delicious cakes.”

Deus shook his head.

“That’s okay. So why on earth did I suddenly have this bad month?”

Yulgeum said.

“I don’t know why. I let my guard down. “I didn’t think Nezar would have already obtained all of the Ark’s control codes.”

“If it’s the Ark, you mean the roots of Sephiroth, right?”

“huh. It was originally a space navigation ship. “After the failure of Hangzhou, it was converted into an ark by people trying to escape and abandon the planet, which had begun to be devastated by war.”

“Did Nezar pull it out and throw it away?”

“I never thought I would do something so reckless… No, maybe we should have defended ourselves first.”

Yulgeum sighed and shook his head.

I could never have imagined that he would so casually commit something that could destroy humanity and the entire demon race.

Touching the roots of Sephiroth meant the fall of the Joseon continent.

It was also the destruction of the demons living below.

The demons were allied with Nezar, and that fact

may have caught Yulgeum off guard.

“Is he planning to leave?”

Deus gulped down the tea.

None of the three could answer that question.

No, he couldn’t even answer the question of whether he was alive.
