The Crazy Demigod Returns

Demon of Pan

The people’s astonished cries grew like wildfire. And the small commotion on the scene soon turned into a noise that was consumed by fear.

If the previous uproar was about avoiding a madman on the street, the current one is the basic behavior of an ordinary petit bourgeois facing the devil.

True or not, it didn’t matter. It was important that the word demon of the pan, which is almost taboo for the common people, came out through someone’s upbringing.

“Kyaaah!”

“Move! Get out of the way!”

“Oh, Dad! Help me!”

“The demon of Pan is furious! The devil has appeared!”

the extreme – the extreme –

In the course of the series of cheering commoners running away, the unpleasant sound of sharp blades rubbing against the well-organized floor of the outer castle continued consistently.

“There! Siege!”

Thanks to the grassroots divided like the Red Sea, a man who could clearly see the troops of the marching ceremony and even the emperor on the podium.

Suddenly, a radius of hundreds of meters became empty, and hundreds of imperial troops, who noticed something wrong with him, began to attack him.

This is the heart of the empire. Besides, it is now undergoing a large-scale launch ceremony.

Imperial soldiers gathered to manage public order. A military force composed entirely of unmanned soldiers. Even the Imperial Knights.

It meant that the power of the empire had been laid bare.

Thanks to this, the troops succeeded in enveloping the man layer by layer in an instant.

However, it seems that men are inferior to bugs. Treated them like air. I was just walking quietly.

Chaeeng-

“What kind of guy are you!”

A 5th rank guard foreman with a sword drawn at the man who didn’t stop walking. He was the highest-ranking of the troops sent out for the siege.

As the person in charge prepared to attack, the besieging troops also drew their weapons.

However, no one was able to jump at the man who was walking straight toward the emperor’s podium.

Because they too had eyes and ears.

I heard the sound of Pan’s demon or monster while dispatching to this place, and confirmed the man’s appearance that was by no means ordinary.

Don’t they know the appearance that grassroots recognize?

You are welcome. Even in the case of the guards or the imperial family guardians, they had to study separately with well-organized books about the demon of the pan.

It is also their job to know from one to ten things that could cause problems for the imperial family.

And because Pan’s devil was always first among dogs.

“Mu, drop your weapon!”

“Reveal your identity!”

A meaningless cry echoed around the man.

As if the news had already entered, the ceremony was suspended, and the gazes of the emperor and nobles who took their seats on the podium also turned to the turmoil here.

the extreme – the extreme –

the demon of the plate. Ha Yeon-woo did not stop walking, ignoring all their words.

Far from rushing in and subduing them, the captain of the 5th rank guard was also busy keeping his distance from the man, screaming loudly.

From a distance, it looks ridiculous as the man and the circle around him gradually approach the site of the ceremony.

How much longer did the confrontation continue?

A group of troops came running from the west gate of the outer castle where the man had walked.

“All the guards at the west gate were dead!”

It is clear who did it. However, unlike the serious atmosphere of this place, the majority of people still in this place suffered from cognitive dissonance and did not recognize the man in front of them as the ‘Pan’s Devil’.

It was the same that the soldiers of the marching ceremony were looking at each other, and the emperor and nobles were still watching with interest from the podium.

“This, profit… ! In accordance with Imperial law, the suspect will be executed immediately!”

If you push further back, you will encounter the marching troops. That is tantamount to a mission failure for the head of the Guard, who is in charge of public security.

In addition, the fact that the emperor was looking at this place with interest without issuing any other orders also fueled the actions of the guard commander.

Sword energy, the exclusive property of the 5th rank, surged from the drawn sword.

Even the swords of the Imperial Guard, which are the unique forces of external and internal forces, each had their own swordsmanship, and other warriors also used mana. He began to strengthen his body and do his best.

percussion-

“die-!”

A guardsman who was shot from a distance of several tens of meters in one step.

In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of the man and scattered his sword energy through a neat sword path.

No, I was going to.

fit-

A shallow solid line drawn exactly vertically from the crown of the head.

The head of the Guard was split in half and fell to the side, just as he had been running.

Fuhuk-

Blood and organs flowed from both sides of the split body, staining the clean, silver-grey exterior floor covering.

There was no sign of swinging a sword. In fact, he was right not to take any action. It’s just that I sent out the idea of ‘separate’.

The scene was enveloped in silence. Even the strongest in the Empire couldn’t split the 5th hierarchy in half without doing ‘nothing’.

Ha Yeon-woo is the name of the man who silently walks between the guards who have now become two.

Without lifting a hand, he cut the 5th rank guard in half and killed him. It’s a situation where the lower things can’t run.

The scene cooled down like blood spilled by the head guard, and the Imperial Knights built a wall around the emperor to prepare for any eventuality.

All that remains between the man and the emperor is the troops of the marching ceremony.

tall-

Ha Yeon-wu’s steps, which had not stopped since he passed through the main gate of the western outer castle, stopped for the first time. and open mouth.

“Why start a war?”

It was a set question to be asked. The only person who can cause a war here is the emperor.

Despite the distance of several hundred meters, not only the emperor, but at least no one present here did not hear the man’s words.

-Who are you?

The emperor borrowed the power of amplification magic and said.

Do you believe in your own troops here? Despite seeing the horrors, the emperor remained calm. No, at least outwardly it seemed so.

No answer came. It’s like answering the question first.

-Hmm… do you want an answer Why are you starting a war? yeah… Because the demon of Pan is the absolute subject of harm that oppresses and restrains the continent.

Holy. said to be righteous.

man. Ha Yeon-woo laughed.

“for? What harm have I done to the continent in the past 100 years?”

– Uhm… .

the emperor groaned.

The first reason is that the handsome man proudly referred to the demon of the pan as ‘me’.

The second reason is that, as he said, there was almost no harm caused to the continent by the actual demon of the plate for 100 years.

Not only the empire, but groups in each country repeatedly pursued it, but it was impossible to catch it like a virtual image or a mirage.

There was no need to incite. Because the grassroots knew how to connect various incidents on the continent with the devil of the pan.

However, what the man asked now was the truth, not rumors. It wouldn’t be difficult for the emperor of the empire to figure out the truth of those rumors.

And there were already no grassroots to agitate here.

“Don’t use a poor excuse for the war that is being waged for your wealth. A lump of blood.”

“Awful! What kind of safety… !”

When he called the emperor a lump of blood, protests erupted from everywhere.

Ha Yeon-woo looked up at the emperor, ignoring their words.

Soon, the stopped feet moved again, and the mouth opened.

“Didn’t your dead father tell you? don’t start a war Then they will all die.”

The emperor’s eyebrows twitched at the words of Ha Yeon-woo, who mentioned his father who died three years ago.

Obviously, it was one of the secret stories that her father emphasized until his death.

No matter how grand the empire becomes, there is a proposition that must never be violated.

‘Pan’s demon hates fighting. No, to be precise, he was angry at losing his own due to another’s quarrel.’

It was an inside story that he was able to know because his father, the Sun Emperor, was a soldier of the 6th rank who went through that time 100 years ago.

At the time, the Continental War itself had been going on for over five years.

The demon of Pan appeared at the end and declared an end to the war by annihilating three kingdoms, one principality, dozens and hundreds of mercenaries and various organizations in a short period of about half a year.

The emperor’s father watched the whole process, and was a wise old king.

A continental war, a lot of blood, a man who appeared at any moment and annihilated everyone like a demon, and his track record disappeared.

He integrated all of this into information and educated his son.

The Demon of Pan lost something precious during the Continental War, and since then has developed an extreme aversion to situations beyond his control.

That’s why he used his own existence as an example to act as a deterrent and tore everything apart.

It was a surprisingly vertiginous conclusion. Because it’s actually pretty much the same.

The Sun Emperor grew his empire exactly according to that.

Do not wage a war of aggression. Military capabilities should be focused only on defense. Instead of increasing armaments, the empire will prosper through magic technology and commerce… .

In this way, the Bahala Empire became one river on the continent after several decades.

Unlike other kingdoms that increased armaments and competed to eat land without an owner after the Continental War, it steadily built up wealth and solidified its stability by interacting with all those countries.

Of course, there were quite a few gaps between Bahala, which was originally an empire, and other countries such as kingdoms and principalities, but nonetheless, without the efforts of the former emperor, the overwhelming difference would not have been widened.

However, the 18-year-old former emperor, who inherited the empire that had already become too strong and prosperous in the era of peace, was immature.

He had a terrible discomfort with a man being talked about with him who should be on top of the continent, and he wanted to take away all the fame of the man everyone feared and respected.

I wanted to kill a man who was rated higher than everything in the empire, all alone.

Heaven and earth, infants alone. Today was the result of his childish desire to be honored alone in the sky above and under the sky.

– Do you think you can survive?

Even if the man in front of me is the real devil of the game, I would rather welcome it. It is said that one of the 5th rank guards is dead, but what does that mean?

Even now, the ten thousand forces of the empire to kill men were alive and breathing here.

-Did you think that the ghosts of the past 100 years ago could survive in the heart of the Great Bahala Empire?

The more he spoke, the more the emperor trembled in anger.

His father’s reign, which was an unwanted label for the young emperor. Confidence skyrocketed thanks to the flattery around him. Jealousy of the existence of fear that cannot be crossed even by one river on the continent.

Everything served as a motive to encourage the emperor to live.

-It doesn’t matter if you’re a follower or even if you’re a demon of Pan! Whoever brings me the author’s neck! Then the title and the most fertile land in the empire. I will give you all the honor and wealth!

the demon of the plate. Ha Yeon-woo was already in the middle of the ceremony.

Since the emperor was talking to the demon of Pan, the soldiers who went to the ceremony were widening their distance and preparing themselves.

There was nothing to shy away from as long as people were gone.

A man who, judging from his inaction, would not be lacking even if he were the devil of the pan. A man who calls himself the Devil of Pan. Emperor’s Promise. And their roles gathered here.

everything fit together

“die!”

“Slay the demon of Pan!”

The launching ceremony soon turned into a scene of the opening of the war.

daily report.

The 10,000 troops nearby began to rush at them like a swarm of ants.

Pan’s demon did not stop. The speed and spacing were constant.

As if their attacks did not hinder his steps.

Fuhuk-

Fuhuaaak-

Flesh and blood splattered. That was it.

one step again.

“Bastard!”

“The title is mine!”

Although the sword dominates the samurai world, there are people who use other weapons.

Swords, godfathers, spears, even lances. Various cold weapons rushed to Pan’s demon.

However, a round space spread around the man like a barrier. No one was allowed to enter it.

Regardless of whether it was 1st or 4th, the body exploded equally.

one more step

I had only walked three steps, but a mountain of corpses piled up around me.

The warriors didn’t care and jumped over the mountain of corpses with mana on their feet.

However, regardless of rank, death was met in a fair manner in the devil’s realm.

“hmm… .”

A deep, troubled sound leaked out of Ha Yeon-woo’s mouth. Because too many corpses were blocking the way.

Soon after, Ha Yeon-woo’s left hand, which did not hold the dangling sword, rose for the first time, and let’s assume a clenched fist.

Phew-!

The front was ‘blown away’ in a fan shape.

It was literally. Hundreds of meters literally disappeared in a fan shape, leaving no traces of dust except for traces of blood on the floor.

Hundreds of soldiers blocking the front disappeared without a trace with a single gesture.
