Damned 13th Regression – 131
by Jessie@AFNCC
“Welcome to Halloween.”
From the main gate of the city to the main street it was filled with all kinds of decorations.
Ghostly pumpkins skeletons hanging on clotheslines vampire makeup werewolves naked witches and monsters mixed with darkness.
Characters who appear regularly at the Halloween festival smiled brightly and welcomed Joo Gong-hyuk.
What is different from the festival is that these are not monsters in stories but real-life murderers.
“There are a lot of great believers.”
Elder Rich who came out with Joo Gong-hyeok looked around the street with satisfaction.
These are people who have made a contract with the devil and melted their bodies into darkness.
Each and every one of them was a person who did not feel awkward even if they were in Niflheim.
There were two shadows at the front of the procession.
“It is an honor to meet the renowned Ömer Ashik.”
A girl of about fifteen took Gonghyeok’s hand saying the pseudonym ‘X’.
Although she was said to be a sweet girl instead of a pretty face there was a pumpkin on her neck.
“It is a pleasure to welcome you to our city King of Death.”
The skull-headed gentleman bowed and greeted.
The white cervical spine was clearly exposed through the collar and a blue haze swayed in the sunken eye sockets.
This skeleton gentleman’s name is Skelling Skellington and the previous pumpkin-haired girl’s name is Pumpkin Pumpqueen.
They were the owner couple who ruled the unique city of Halloween Nightmare.
“Now come here quickly. “We have prepared a place for the party in a place with a nice view.”
The corners of the pumpkin head’s mouth contorted as if it were alive and spouted out a laugh and a strange spark like a ghost fire flashed in its eyes.
It was hard to imagine what it was like when he was human.
They were originally fakes with all the funny names like Hunter Pumpkin Pump Queen Skelling Skellington.
“I touched your hand and saw that you are still human.”
A tickling laugh and yellow sparks flowed from the Pumpkin Queen’s mouth.
“Hurry and walk the path to immortality like us. “It’s a new world.”
The couple took off their human guise by accomplishing feats with the devil.

The body goes beyond something monstrous and is closer to a half-demon.
There were many such people in Ymir’s Giant City and Gonghyeok’s Command City but these and the Halloween monsters were of a different class.
They were all former hunters and they were prospective devils who would be the first to become devils when the human world was defeated.
A party of non-humans was held on the top terrace of the Halloween Castle.
A werewolf with sparse fur was tearing at an unknown piece of meat and men with dark faces were immersed in the shadows giggling and chatting.
The vampire concocted two cocktails from the blood freshly squeezed from the girl’s arteries and handed them over to Skellington.
“Now let’s try it.”
He gritted his teeth and passed the cocktail glass to Joo Gong-hyeok.
Skellington naturally drank a cocktail made of human blood.
It’s a kind of fight.
A contract with the devil does not lead to cannibalism.
There are many people who dislike eating human blood and flesh and in fact Skellington himself did not enjoy it that much but he was curious about how the Demon King would turn out and had expectations that he might see him hesitate.
“Thank you.”
I poured the sparkling cocktail into the mouth of the mask.
The red cocktail soaked my chin and clothes and splashed onto the floor.
“I should have prepared a straw like this.”
The pumpkin-headed priest chuckled but Skellington frowned.
Even as the cocktail scattered on the floor Joo Gong-hyeok’s uvula moved.
The ring on my finger was shining.
[‘Princess’ Ring (S++)’ manifests its power.]
[Skill ‘Blood Control (S)’ activated.]
“There’s too much alcohol in the glass.”
When Gonghyuk put down the cocktail glass instead of the glass shrinking blood gushed out like a spring.
Fountains of blood burst into the glasses of other vampires and unbelievable amounts of blood spurted out from the body of the virgin who provided the living blood drenching the party hall with fresh blood.
Elder Rich who was in the same spot turned his cocktail upside down and spilled it.
“Never put God to the test.”
The werewolf whispered to the vampire next to him.
“It’s dirty. “Please stop it blood sucker.”
“Shut up Yellowy. “Because I feel dirty right now.”
Jace a self-made vampire was in an awkward mood throughout the party.
He felt instinctively fearful of the existence of a high-ranking vampire with overwhelming control.
‘Is that at the level of a marquis? No I’ll be at duke level.’
None of the vampires gathered here had a higher rank than him.
Skellington shrugged his bony shoulders.
“I think I made a mistake for the precious person who came all the way here. “Miller.”
“yes.”
He brought in the vampire who made the cocktail.

Skellington’s bony fingers formed a hand blade.
“You made a lot of mistakes.”
“yes?”
A sharp hand blade grazed the vampire’s neck.
Instead of a clean clattering sound a vivid cutting sound rang out along the curve of the finger bones.
‘Master I am…’
The severed head throbbed with the vitality of a vampire but Skellington’s shoe trampled on its lower jaw.
“Oh my gosh sir. “Be scared.”
The Pumpkin Queen exaggerated covering her mouth with her hand as Skellington dusted off his shoes and led the way to a clean table.
“Omer Ashik is lacking but the main dish is prepared. “Is there a menu you want?”
“It doesn’t matter what. “The important thing is not what you eat but what you talk about.”
chin-
Niflheim’s evil dog crossed his legs on the table.
“Since you invited me you must have had something you wanted to talk about.”
How many 40000 refugees will be killed? How to form a siege network? How to attack Ilibatus? Can Christina be killed?
There were plenty of things for the two cities to discuss.
Skellington wet his chin with blue-flame brandy.
The Pumpkin Queen next to him laughed and wiped her husband’s drenched chin and spine with a handkerchief.
“That is also important. The Necromancer King Ömer Ashik. “The reason I called you wasn’t that boring.”
“then?”
Inside the mask Gonghyuk’s smile twisted into a sneer.
Even though he was the giant of Halloween Skelling Skellington was a boring man.
Compared to Ymir who was naturally single-minded and the previous Demon King who was only interested in destroying humanity he was extremely human.
Without any beliefs they act strictly based on gain and quickly withdraw from loss.
The reason he is where he is now is because of a lucky combination of natural talent and that way of thinking.
‘I didn’t do anything special in my life.’
He made a moderate amount of profit as the owner of the city but when Babel collapsed he somehow returned to human form and flattered Gonghyeok. When Babel won he became a subordinate of the Ten Dukes or the Four Heavenly Kings and became an enemy of little significance.
Joo Gong-hyeok didn’t expect a guy like that to do anything.
“Lord of Halloween. “What’s the funny thing you’re talking about?”
“Look out there.”
The place where they sat was the highest terrace in the city.
A cool breeze blew through the upper floors and I could see the unique city of Illivatus and the Barracks Village below.
“Let me show you something good.”
“Look down there~ Sir!”
Skelling Skellington and Pumpkin Pumpqueen’s eyes met each other.
Just right.
By snapping their fingers they match the rhythm.
“one.”
“Two~♪.”
“three.”
The Pumpkin Queen’s exciting soprano and the Skull Gentleman’s heavy bass intersected and the two snapped their fingers at the same time.
““Boom!!””
Quaaaaaaa!!
Early evening as the sun sets.
A firework exploded so huge that it overshadowed the setting sun.
“Hoo.”
Gonghyuk looked outside the terrace due to the shock wave and heavy drinking.
The fireworks exploded in the unique city of Illivatus.
Mushroom clouds and black smoke rose from the top floor of Ilibatus where five disks were lined up in a row.
‘You did a much bigger job than I thought.’
Gonghyeok was proud of Skellington’s growth and asked.
“What happened?”
“Now Ilibatus has been neutralized. “I will be leaving here soon.”
Gonghyuk chuckled at the sight of Skellington leisurely drinking brandy.
“Why do you think that?”
It is a miscalculation to think that the enemy will be relieved just because the Japanese army did not bomb Pearl Harbor and delivered a big blow.
Skellington must have sensed the gaze inside the mask and straightened his clothes and took a confident stance.
The prediction that Ilibatus was neutralized was not an unfounded confidence.
‘If only you knew who died in the explosion just now.’
Skellington conveyed the answer of his conversion to the King of Demons.
“It’s simple. Animus just died in an explosion.”
“…what?”
Death of the animus.
Joo Gong-hyeok took on the form of ‘X’ and asked someone else for the first time.
Caw-caw-
Two crows sent by the assassination team flew onto the terrace.
Skellington read the raven’s mind and confirmed.
“The news has arrived now. “Ilibatus’s master Animus and six of his officers have just been killed in a terrorist assassination.”
I felt like a tearful smile was hanging on Skellington’s lipless mouth.
“ruler! Their necks are gone like Dullahan. Let’s celebrate the festival of the headless tonight! “Unless Ilibatus escapes before then.”
“Seobang you’re really cool. “What a great party this will be.”
Gonghyuk slightly twisted his head as the two people ran wild.
“Hmm.”
It was a suspicious nod.
Gonghyuk slowly shook his head and opened his mouth.
“How did they kill him?”
The ferocious eyes engraved on the mask glowed with a sharp light like a blade.
“‘You two’ are here. “How did you kill the animus?”
“Because we also have excellent subordinates.”
Skellington answered calmly.
There was no panicked light in the blue haze rising from the skull’s eyes.
However stiffness and tension could be seen in the body that stopped moving excessively.
“Hmm.”
Joo Gong-hyeok’s head turned to 45 degrees.
It looked extremely uncomfortable to anyone who saw it.
Data passed quickly through Gonghyeok’s mind.
‘In this situation who is capable of assassinating the Animus at once?’
When the hidden hunters’ talents at Halloween reach their full potential talents who could aim for the top came to mind.
Blood White Ingus Shadow Clown Sebastine Berserker Ibrahim Meteor Witch Rebecca…
[As a result of the location search all people except those who died are within Halloween.]
The voice of the GM who had completed the search was heard.
These assassins were the work of those who did not fall prey to his information and search.
The guys who would do something like this are obvious.
‘They’re alphabet friends.’
On Halloween the only hunters capable of breaking through the security of the Illivatus headquarters and assassinating the Animus are Skellington and Pump Queen.
Even if the two moved on their own it was not easy to predict success.
“Whoa~”
