Episode 446. Devilâs Counterattack (2)
Black short hair covering the whole body.
Contrast this with bright yellow eyes.
It was âEllieâ, a middle manager in the form of a cat.
She was also in charge of the hosting part of âProduce 101â.
âNya. How did you know?â
how do you know
âYou admins put a lot of shoveling into this theme, so of course they were watching with interest.â
âSah, shoveling⦠youâre talking harshly. This is just a minor internal problemâ¦â â
Is a trivial problem interfering with the Demon Realm in Produce 101? A deal that allowed me to interfere this deeply?â
âNya, nyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaity.. thatâsâ¦â
âOkay. Donât explain in detail. The words that will come out of that mouth are obvious to hear.â
Jinhyeok cut off Eliâs words.
âThis 30th floor has thousands of themes, and it was so difficult to manage, right? You did as you were told to do, so you didnât know this would happen.â
âThatâs right! Thatâs exactly what I wanted to say!â
Ellie nodded vigorously.
As if he drank a bowl of churro mixed with carbonic acid, it was a bonus that his expression of 10 years of stuffiness went down.
The tone of Jinhyeokâs voice changed 180 degrees.
From criticism to empathy.
âYes, I know it all. I know it all too. Youâre stuck in the middle and struggling. The authority is small, but the responsibility is filthy heavyâ¦. suffered a lot.â
âKkeuugh⦠Nyaaa! It was really hard. They said they were threatened with being deprived of their managerial position! I donât even know what this is all aboutâ¦!â
âSo. Shouldnât we find out who the corrupt insider is more? That way, both the manager and the player can resolve the unfair situation.â
The culprit behind this must be inside the administration.
In addition to Hastings, there are garbage bugs that help him.
âHa, butâ¦â
âThink carefully. If you can catch such a large-scale corruption, itâs not even a job to get a promotion. Maybe, instead of a small theme like this, you can be in charge of the entire main floor?â
A middle manager who manages middle managers.
You will rise to the enviable position right below your upper management.
If this doesnât appeal to you, itâs a lie.
ââ¦!â
An earthquake occurred in Ellieâs pupils.
Will it become a middle management position that suffers forever like this?
Or will he use this opportunity as a stepping stone to become the one who shakes the plate?
For Ellie, the outcome was as if it were pre-determined.
âNya, I⦠what can I do?â
âFrom now on, remember everything I say. What are you going to doâ¦â
Jinhyeok slowly began to explain his plans for the future.
* * *
Parts!
Light falling from top to bottom.
Kim Dong-Hwanâs attack landed on the Heavenly Demonâs head.
Kwaaang!
The Heavenly Demon managed to deflect the attack by using the âHeavenly Demonâs Rulerâ.
If the reaction was delayed even by a second, a wind hole would have formed in the body.
But you canât be at ease.
It was because the opponent was able to use the âHeavenly Demonâs Limboâ as well.
Quaang!
Kim Dong-hwan caught the Heavenly Horse at once.
A storm of attacks followed.
And besidesâ¦
âCheuk!â
âOops!â
The bodies of Dark Hwang and Chu Hon Sa-yeong, who were fighting a short distance away, were greatly staggered.
With a body that had already reached its limit, he did everything he could, butâ¦
it was not enough to be the opponent of the rest of the Heavenly Demons.
The two collapsed, covered in blood, breathing heavily.
I didnât even have the energy to make time anymore.
âAs expected, fighting is best with a frying pan and kitchen knife.â
âCheon Jong-wonâ, the heavenly horse of cooking, swung the kitchen tools lightly.
Next to him was the heavenly horse âKaneâ who played with a soccer ball made of iron and the heavenly horse âNilberkenâ possessed by the countâs madman.
Since he had mastered the âHeavenly Magic Artâ, which is the foundation, even if he had no weapons or equipment, his body itself was like a weapon.
âIf you continue, only you will suffer. Rather, accept your fate comfortably. Then, Iâll finish it in one blow.â
Kim Dong-hwan, squatting in front of the Heavenly Demon, smirked.
âDo you think hostages would be meaningful to me?â
âItâs ridiculous to mention hostages to the Heavenly Demon. If you ask the rest of us here, including me, the answer will be the same.â
but.
âYou are an exception. Even if itâs not on the surface, youâve shown excessively big movements to protect your subordinates.â
[Kim Dong-hwan activates Lv28 âKingâs Swordâ!]
Parts!
A blue river gushed along the fountain pen.
âLetâs finish with one of your lives. Iâll spare the rest.â
Now, if you add the effort of twisting the chicken head, the fight will be over.
But it was when Kim Dong-hwan was about to finish.
ââ¦hmm?â
Suddenly, a new magical force was detected behind her back.
This is the unique reaction felt when the gate appears.
no way?
âKang Jin-hyuk!â
The only one who can come here is the player Guntaper warned about.
However, it was not Jinhyeok who showed up.
Kwak Kwah Kwah Kwah!
Immediately, weapons with strong magical powers poured out from the gate.
âWindow 22 âKassiasâ.â
A massive spear reminiscent of the lances of heavy cavalry.
A total of twenty-two spears were blown up by Kim Dong-hwan and the Heavenly Demons.
Kwak!
Kaaang!
It was a surprise attack, but the Heavenly Demons skillfully responded to the attack.
âBeermount⦠what are you doing!â
âWhy are you screaming like a betrayed lover? We werenât even that close. I just switched sides the way I wanted.â
âYou sayâ¦?â
Next to the beer mount, Jinhyeok sticks his head out.
âYou caught a rotten rope. Trusting such a stupid person and betraying us.â
âGee, thatâs a bit harsh. A rotten rope.â
If you know how promising our company is, you will want to join us right away.
âEllis.â
âhuh.â
âCollect the survivors and let them escape. Once you get out of the gate, go straight to the place I told you about and hide.â
âOkay. Whoâs the contractor?â
âIâll have to keep an eye on them to make sure they donât do anything stupid.â
âSurveillance? You bastard us?â
At Jinhyeokâs words, Kim Donghwanâs eyebrows curved in reverse.
Anger is bound to rise.
It was because they were saying that they would at least stop their act of daring to eat a world.
âDo you want to die?â
âNo, do you want to live happily ever after?â
The two eyes met head-on.
âNyaa! Everyone please stop.â
A shrill, high-pitched voice interrupted.
It was middle manager Ellie.
âEllieâ¦?â
âWhy are you?â
âWasnât the manager taking a neutral position?â
For the first time among the Heavenly Demons, a voice mixed with bewilderment came out.
It was because he hadnât even imagined that Jinhyeok would come with Eli.
Either that or not.
Ellie ignored everyoneâs questions and silently added what she had to say.
âFrom now on, I will add one provision with the authority of a mid-level manager.â
[For the sake of fairness in the theme âProduce 101,â players are given one privilege.] [
The Ancient Intrigue Corporation can ask for help from forces on the 30th floor or higher, and if the other party accepts it, it can manifest without restrictions.]
[ This contract is made with the approval of the senior manager âVendiviaâ and execution by the middle manager âEllieâ.] A
trump card prepared to keep the Pandemonium and Olympus in check.
This is the beginning of a counterattack.
âI will seek help from Beriel of the Demon World and the gods of Egypt.â
Jinhyeok confidently called the deities he was close to.
But
[â¦]
[â¦.]
for some reason, the two deities did not appear.
âWhatâs the matterâ¦â
Jinhyeok gathered his mana again.
But the result was still the same.
âAs expected, I thought you would do a trick like that.â
end with a cold voice.
A high-ranking blood relative among the Heavenly Demons. The appearance of âAgrokâ began to change.
Crunchy!
Wooduk!
âKuaaa!â
Agrock became all too familiar with the screams.
âHwiyu. This takes a lot of work. But before killing me, I wanted to see the face of the guy who rotted me so much.â
Gunta Ferda.
To be precise, it was just conveying the intention through the body of a blood relative, not the main body.
âDid you know that I would call Beriel and Anubis?â
âOf course. Since those two are normally close friends with you. Of course, I expected that you would insist on fairness through the manager and use the means to manifest them.â
But thatâs it.
Even if that is possibleâ¦
âIf they canât afford to help you, wouldnât they have no choice but to refuse the summons?â
A fishy smile formed on Guntaferâs lips.
At the same time, beyond the gate where Jinhyeok and Alice came out, another staircase began to appear.
It was the stairway where Beriel and the Egyptian deities were located.
-Kiiiâ¦
-Deathâ¦!
Currently, the great heroes of Olympus and the four knights of the Book of Revelation are manifested in Oasis.
âThese⦠bastardsâ¦!â
âNow theyâre attacking openly.â
Egyptian gods such as Anubis and Horus were busy dealing with this.
The light went off right away, but it would be impossible to pay attention to anything else.
In addition, Berielâs territory was also under intensive fire from the demon lords who had joined forces with Guntaper.
Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!
Everything was stained dark red by blood and ashes.
âOf course, Beriel, that leech-like guy, might try to help you even by giving away part of his territory.â
Arrangements for it have already been completed.
The pursuit party, composed of the direct blood relatives of each demon king, aimed only at Beriel.
Because the reins were constantly tightened, there was no chance that Beriel would escape the Pandemonium.
The remaining members of the Goinmul Corporation are also disconnected as they pursue different themes.
Itâs completely out of the way.
âWhen the enemy sees one move, this body always looks ahead two, no, ten. Thatâs the difference between you and me, who canât even live a hundred years.â
* * *
Jinhyuk wet his lips with his tongue.
Think.
The card I had prepared has become useless, so I need a second best way to overcome this situation.
Of course, Guntafer didnât give me time to think about it leisurely.
âBehemoth. That guy is the target.â
Guntafer nodded to the side.
âItâs still absurd that I went to such lengths to catch a human, but, well, work is work
.
â She walked out.
A short-haired girl with a slender body,
holding a pair of small horns on her head and a large sword in contrast.
Who could see this and think that she is a divine beast on the same level as the Kraken and Leviathan?
No, simply because of her appearance. Itâs crazy to judge by only one.
Chills.
A chill runs down
the spine .
They said that they were climbing mountains more and more. Only then did it seem difficult to get out of this place with the Heavenly Demon and Master.
