chapter 36
The weakest heir, Chief of Staff Lyudmila.
She was the only character with the highest intelligence stat in this game along with Altrich.
There was a reason for taking over the position of successor and even taking the position of Chief of Staff of the Annihilation Army with a weak force that was not as strong as that of a lower-class demon.
But now, she was speaking outrageously in a voice with complete confidence.
“It’s no use even for Shichimite! Heides-sama, the first in the succession line, has the wealth of killing. It is a book that records who killed whom. The name of the person who killed the Demon King recorded there, and the person who killed Balaxas. The person’s name was obviously Bong-Pal Park!”
And laughed again.
“No matter how much you used terminus to change history, you wouldn’t be able to change even these things!”
‘Wow, that’s just what I ended up with.’
Park Bong-pal broke out in a cold sweat. Apparently, only the name of the person who took their life last was recorded in the artifact called the wealth of killing.
“Wow, anyway, I’m not allowed. I won’t even break out. I’m a criminal. I’m going to pay for my crimes here.”
Bong-Pal Park shot at this strange, thin-eyed woman in front of her. I didn’t want to be dragged by a woman with such a strange mind. But Lyudmila just smiled and spoke calmly.
“You mean you don’t want to be a human traitor? It’s your pride as a warrior.”
“Wow, because it’s not. Why are you doing this to be really annoying?”
I tried to swear like Jain, but it didn’t come to mind. Lyudmila continued to offer suggestions without getting tired.
“Is it because of a woman? If that’s the case, don’t worry. I will invite the 3rd in rank, Binghui Glasalabolas, to present 100 beautiful Succubus Froyllines. Each one of them is as beautiful as this one. It will be.”
Leticia snorted at that. Then he opened his chest and shouted confidently.
“Heh, it’s no use trying to seduce me with something like that! The hero already shares true love with me!”
But Park Bong-pal remained silent.
“100, 100 or so.”
“I, brother?”
“Wow, that’s right! I don’t need it! For what you see people as!”
It didn’t make any sense because he had Erectile Dysfunction Gears anyway. Park Bong-pal shouted and refused. But Lyudmila didn’t get tired and just laughed.
“Hearing those words, my reasoning is even more convincing. As the rumors say, if the hero was a horny and a playboy, wouldn’t there be no way to reject this bait?”
“Think as you please. The hero doesn’t go.”
Leticia pointed at Brunhilde and cut it off. Even she had no intention of making Park Bong-Pal a human traitor. All of a sudden, after hearing the commotion, the soldiers came and surrounded Lyudmila in a circle. Brunhilde emitted a polar light and aimed at Lyudmila’s neck. But Lyudmila was still calm.
“Huh, do you really want to drink poison?”
“That’s what I’m trying to say. To surrender quietly and be imprisoned.”
“I mean, did I walk into the middle of the enemy camp without any preparation?”
Lyudmila raised her hands, smiled round and round, and took two steps back. And shouted confidently.
“Come out, Britra! Daughter of Balaxas!”
As soon as the shouting ended, the earth axis began to vibrate. It looked like an earthquake had occurred. The paving stones cracked, the bars collapsed from the impact, and the ceiling collapsed. Then, the prison, and even the entire northern fortress, split in half, and something appeared. It was black, big, and scary.
“Dragon?”
Seeing the existence that appeared, Leticia muttered blankly. As if absorbing light, a huge dragon covered with jet-black scales was flying over the broken fortress, flapping its wings. It looked like it was hiding underground, then, at Lyudmila’s command, broke the fortress floor and soared into the sky. Lyudmila was standing holding the horns on the top of her head and bursting into laughter.
“Let me introduce you! Balaxas of annihilation, the prostitute, who has been affected by his death and joined the Demon Lord’s Army. It’s called Britra!”
Britra responded with a roar to the introduction. Leticia’s hair fluttered like crazy with only the shock wave that followed the roar.
Park Bong-pal and the people of this world did not know, but the appearance of that dragon was not an ordinary occurrence.
[Britra. Daughter of Balaxas. It is still immature, but the potential is superior to that of Balaxas.]
Britra was dummy data in which only these few lines of settings existed in the original.
It wasn’t just that. The ‘Scenario of Jinma Hwang’s Advent’ in which Park Bong-pal is now involved. This was also dummy data.

Now, due to various things, the causal ratio is twisted, and things that were not in the original story are happening.
Leticia managed to balance her body, pulled out Brunhilde and raised her eyes. Lyudmila laughed as if it was plastic.
“Are you going to fight? This man is still not as good as his father, but he is more powerful than the previous demon lords. If he tries, he will only kill a dog.”
Leticia bit her lip. Lyudmila said while brushing her hair.
“Well, if you really want to fight, you can kill everyone and take only the hero…”
“Wow, stop it.”
The prison where Park Bong-pal was imprisoned was also broken through with the shock of Britra’s appearance. Park Bong-pal walked out slowly with the iron ball hanging on his foot. and said bluntly.
“Woo-woong, the purpose was me? Then take only me. Don’t touch anyone else!”
“Ahaha, no matter how you deny it, it seems that the noble spirit of sacrifice as a hero cannot be denied! Good!”
Lyudmila drove Britra towards Bongpal Park. Britra flew off with a light bong-palm in her mouth. Leticia saw it and screamed.
“brother!”
“Wow, don’t worry! Everything will be fine!”
Park Bong-pal tried to reassure Leticia by waving his hand in the meantime. Lyudmila, who flew completely into the sky, used loudspeaking magic to shout loudly to be heard throughout the northern fortress.
“Tell my rival Altrich! The hero you abandoned for your ugliness for power will return as a nemesis that destroys this world!”
After saying those words, Britra flapped her wings and started to glide. Britra and Park Bong-pal moved away from Leticia’s sight in an instant. Leticia lost her strength and fell to the floor, missing her sword.
‘Wow, you’re screwed. What will happen to me now?’
Bongpal Park muttered to himself as he flew while hanging from Britra’s mouth.

The palace considered the most sacred by demons.
Manma Battle Pandemonium.
The building, which had a circular structure similar to that of the parliament building, was now bustling like never before.
It was because Walpurgis Night, the highest assembly of demons, was held where all the successors gathered.
This event was the only event where all the successors of the Demon King, who were fighting as if they were going to kill each other, gathered together.
In particular, this was the only event where all the heirs of the Demon King from the 1st to 5th places gathered.
The actual ranking of runners who could become the Demon King was up to 5th.
These five people were competing for the throne by forming a force while controlling their successors under their control.
The difference was clear enough to determine the ranking, but not so great.
There was only one reason why the demon realm, which was torn into so many branches and antagonized, was able to unite as one, albeit nominally.
A book at the center of Manmajeon.
Black Codex.
It was thanks to this book. This book has automatically written and updated the best laws for demons, and all demons must obey those laws. The duty of observing that law was imposed on all demons with the same level of force as Gears.
The law became stricter as the subjects became more powerful, and in the case of the demon lord, it was almost impossible to force him to become a personal god, so he restrained so many things that he thought.
The Codex seemed to fear the Demon Realm itself more than the human race.
That law restrained everything so that the demon king could not become a tyrant, and led to a natural replacement of the demon king.
So, despite having overwhelming power for thousands of years, the Demon Realm could not conquer mankind.
The Codex was both a preventative measure against civil war and a stumbling block preventing it from conquering the world.
But the codex changed its stance.
The trigger was the death of Balaxas.

Now, the Codex feared humanity more than the corruption or arbitrariness of the Demon Realm itself.
After Balaxas’ death, a new page in the Codex was rewritten with these words:
[ Descend the Jinma Hwang. ]
[The demon king who has received the grace of Jinma Hwang will be freed from all laws. ]
[ If you use the person who killed Balaxas as your bedrock, you can descend the True Demon Hwang. ]
The heirs of the Demon King up to 5th place agreed to this instruction. So, he dispatched Lyudmila, the chief of staff, who was the wisest heir in the Demon King’s army and was not included in any successor’s power.
And Lyudmila brilliantly succeeded in securing the warrior who lost the life of Balaxas.
But despite its success, Walpurgis Night is now a mess.
“Are you kidding me!”
A single-horned male demon with bronzed, dark blue hair tied in the tail. 4th in line of succession, Belial. He shouted, slamming his fist against the desk.
“Is that really the one who saw the end of infinity! Wasn’t he tricked into picking up something strange?”
The throne in the center of Manmajeon. There, Park Bong-pal was sitting there, sweating profusely. It was because Lyudmila, who only gave a brief explanation, said that time was running out and sat him right here. Belial screamed again, with blue naturalization from his eyes.
“That guy’s strength is only 2. Is not the level of a giant daughter-in-law digging up the crops in the field on a scale of strength divided from 1 to 99!”
Belial had a unique skill that could read the information of things, ‘Spirit Eye’. He was angered by understanding the level of Park Bong-pal with his deepest eyes.
‘Wow, you’re really f*cked.’
Park Bong-pal had nothing else to say but sweat with a look that looked like he was about to cry. He was wearing the same iron helmet he wore in prison, so it was only comforting that his expression was not seen.
“Again, you judge everything in your mind. It’s your bad habit.”
That was the time. A young man’s voice hit Park Bong-Pal’s ear. I glanced up at him and saw a human who didn’t appear to have much difference in age from him, standing with his arms crossed. It was a face I had seen somewhere. After pondering for a moment, Park Bong-pal realized why he had such a thought.
‘Wow, you’re similar to Karin. If Karin was a man, I think she would have a face like that.’
It was Alfonzo Lufrain who brought those words up.
He ate the essence of Baal, who was ranked 5th, and became a human traitor,
He was now a magician who had risen to the position of heir to the second rank of the Demon King.
And, he was Karin’s hated older brother.
