Damned 13th Regression – 201



<Regression number 13 is damn right, episode 201>

Silence spread throughout the temple.

Joo Gong-hyeok declared once again.

“I’m selling all my points. “Is there anyone who wants to buy it?”

The city’s representatives looked at each other with stern faces.

The hunters under his command were talking loudly.

“You’re selling your contribution?”

“What do you want? “If you own a city there would be no harm in having the Twilight Legion occupy it.”

Liliane shouted urgently.

“Sleep!! What if I sell it? “If I hand over all the points I won’t even have any money left to repay the SS-level items I handed over to you!”

“I don’t know. “It’s loud.”

Gonghyeok picked his ears in open ignorance.

Liliane came to the side with a forced smile.

“Ah~~ That’s right. You can also sell points. Because my brother still has a long way to go to the 88th floor. But brother… it’s a bit much to sell everything but can’t I save at least 300000 points? Even if you sell just 200000 points you can buy pretty much anything. right?”

“I don’t know.”

she begged.

“No leave me 250000 no 200000 points. If you have that I can repay the debt to Prince Poison Flame and deal with urgent matters first….”

“Are you saying you don’t trust me?”

“No I don’t believe it. Don’t believe it. Who do I trust other than my brother? Please fix it…”

Liliane pleaded with tearful eyes.

“Are you going to leave some for me?”

“no. “I’m going to sell everything.”

“…Hey you bastard with no morals! “Can’t you hear what the devil is saying?”

“Liliane.”

Gonghyuk warned.

“I see you among the guys with the Daecheon Love Detection trait. “Why don’t you at least save face?”

“When did you save my face!? “My life is at stake but that’s not a problem!”

Eumma opened her eyes and looked around.

“What are you looking at! You bastards! “Sweet eyes!”

Some hunters looked away awkwardly.

Nathaniel covered his eyes as if embarrassed.

– It’s ugly. It’s ugly.

“shut up! Did you add anything to the devil’s ugliness? “The world is inherently ugly!”

Lilianne lay down on the table in the temple.

“I don’t know either. I can’t get over 300000. “Pearl first.”

As the devil in obscene clothes lay down on the table some people couldn’t find where to look.

– I can see your panties.

“When did you not see it? “Tell me to look.”

-…

Joo Gong-hyuk looked at Liliane lying on the table and wiped the nose of her mask.

“Are you really going to have a stomachache?”

Lilianne flinched for a moment.

If he says he’s cut it he really cuts it off from head to toe.

She knew Gonghyeok’s behavior patterns better than anyone else.

‘Should I say it’s a joke now?’

no. You can’t do that.

If you show weakness here it is clear that you will be treated like a slave by that person for the rest of your life.

Overcoming her strong survival instinct she barely opened her mouth.

“no. “Please save me.”

The three angels who were watching the skit all covered their eyes.

Nathaniel covered his face with his hands.

– Lilianne is ugly…

“…Ah I stopped without realizing it.”

Operation failed.

It was impossible for a devil faithful to his desires to overcome his desire to survive.

Liliane got down to the table and crawled over.

“Please save me. Brother. “Hehehe.”

Gonghyeok smiled as he saw her grabbing the leg of her pants.

“Why would I kill you? “It’s so cute when you whine.”

“Hehehe I will help you in a more cute and sexy way from now on. I also have to make a living. If I go home like this I’ll die. “Sobbing.”

“Okay okay. “Are you afraid I didn’t even get anything for you?”

Liliane stopped crying and narrowed her eyes.

“Do you have anything?”

“then. “Take it without showing it to anyone.”

Gonghyuk held out the bead so that it could not be seen.

Her eyes widened when she received the bead.

What Gonghyeok presented was the ‘Essence of Baphomet the Grand Duke of Evil’.

‘Because you are my personal devil. It’s late but you’ll be able to get 200000 points from the beast people.’

At Joo Gong-hyeok’s whisper Liliane burst into tears.

“Thank you! “Thank you so much teacher!”

“okay. “Go back quickly.”

Liliane blew her nose with a handkerchief and disappeared from the conference room.

Nathaniel and a few other hunters had strange looks on their faces but most of the hunters who couldn’t see Liliane were in a meeting among themselves.

“Our city has accumulated a total of 30000 points. “If you reward this with coins you get 9 yellow coins.”

“Mathematically 150 yellow coins are needed to purchase all of the Necromancer’s points. “Is there anyone who has enough coins to do that?”

“Nothing.”

The yellow coin is a coin that cannot be used because there are no knights.

There are ten top hunters who can increase their abilities with yellow coins but there is no city that can procure 150 such coins at once.

“Death King. “What do you want?”

Edgar spoke as a representative.

“Are there any coins or items you want that we can give away? Or do you want a different negotiation distance?”

People’s eyes all turned to Gonghyuk who was wearing a mask.

Joo Gong-hyeok twisted his black-gloved fingers playfully.

“well. “It’s something you have and something you don’t have.”

The metal fingers moved bizarrely forming a pyramid and then rotating in a spiral according to nerve signals.

Edgar furrowed his forehead in disgust at the strange inhuman hand gesture.

“There is something you want.”

“okay. “Yes.”

“If there is anything we can give consider it positively….”

Kakak─

Joo Gong-hyeok’s fingers carved the desk and made a sculpture.

“One city.”

The castle-shaped sculpture made by Gonghyeok was placed on the table.

“Over 500000 points I will receive one city.”

“…Are you serious?”

“okay. “I think the city of Illivatus the Flawless City would be good.”

Pusseu─

The pieces scattered like sand from Gonghyeok’s grasp.

“I will make Illivatus a part of my tiered city Niflheim.”

“Nonsense!”

The representatives who were sitting got up from their seats.

“There are three legions left!”

“What guarantee is there that all three will come into human hands?”

“Still the same! “You can’t just give up a city for a reward of unknown value!”

The Demon King chuckled.

“「A-2」 What do you think?”

A-2 who came on behalf of Ilibatus’ master Animus answered.

“We can’t decide that. “We are under the highest level of control by the City Coalition.”

A traitor to humanity.

Ilibatus an ally of Duke Hyuk of Zhou effectively became a colony.

The entire army of Ilibatus was under the command of the City Alliance and 70% of the goods produced were forcibly conscripted by the City Alliance.

The same goes for the dragon city of Desertio where Joo Gong-hyeok was the city’s owner.

Only the Company was exempt because it was under the control of Alphard the hero who pushed Joo Gong-hyeok away.

“At least I am absolutely against it.”

Nirvana monk Narsingh Kumar strongly declared:

“I have fought with the Demon King several times in the past. I don’t want to hand over a city to that fearsome man. What will the Hunters of Illivatus do under him and what will the Necromancer King do to the citizens of Illivatus? “I don’t even want to imagine it.”

“There are certainly issues with citizens’ human rights.”

Many nodded.

The concept of tens of thousands of human beings being passed over like objects against their will caused resistance in their conscience.

Of course before the human rights issue the value of a city and an army of unknown effectiveness were not balanced.

“That’s such a shame.”

Joo Gong-hyeok shrugged his shoulders politely.

I didn’t think they would give me the city kindly.

From the beginning Gonghyeok’s purpose was part of it.

“Then we will receive the rightful authority from Ilibatus that we deserve.”

“Legitimate authority?”

“It is the right to produce.”

Joo Gong-hyuk looked around the audience.

“Your 10 cities took 7% of Ilibatus’ production every month because they suffered damage from the traitor to humanity Joo Gong-hyeok. But my city also suffered losses from Joo Gong-hyeok.”

Joo Gong-hyeok smiled at the situation where he was criticizing himself and defending himself.

“Take the production rights. I won’t get it for free. “We will hand over 70000 contribution points to cities that hand over 7% production rights.”

The delegates murmured.

“70000 points is roughly equivalent to 20 yellow coins.”

“Not a bad deal? “With that amount you can make a city master level hunter like Edgar or Surt.”

“Even if you leave it as the corps share without converting it to coins….”

The value of the coin decreases as you move up to the upper level.

Considering the 7% of equipment and products produced by Illivatus every year 7% of Illivatus may be more valuable than 20 yellow coins.

However it was very attractive to be able to turn a single executive-level hunter into a thousand knight-level strong monster one of the greatest monsters in the human race.

thud!

Blade Wolf Undram Ochirbat raised his hand.

“good night! Panda!”

“Good. Transfer of $70000.”

When the first trader came out city representatives who had been clicking their calculators raised their hands one after another.

“We do business here too.”

“I will also transfer the production rights to Illivatus.”

Seven out of 10 cities handed over production rights.

Conversely this means that the three cities did not respond to Joo Gong-hyeok’s deal.

Joo Gong-hyeok asked the corps master Edgar whose eyes were heavily closed.

“what’s the matter. I guess 70000 contribution points isn’t enough. “It’s similar to the total you earned on this floor.”

“…I don’t want to agree to a hasty deal.”

The cities that did not fall into the deal were Alphard’s “Company” Edgar’s “Legion” and the mercy city “Nirvana”.

The representatives of the three cities glared at the Demon King.

The Demon King lightly received that gaze and opened his inventory.

“Then let’s change the conditions.”

With Kara!

Yellow coins fell on the table.

Dozens and hundreds of coins were piled up on the table.

The hunters in the room stared at the golden coins piled up on the table with mesmerized faces.

“oh my god.”

“That’s ridiculous. That… “Is it real?”

The Demon King nodded.

“Not really. “There are 260 yellow coins.”

The Demon King picked up a handful of yellow coins and threw them at the city’s owners.

“Let me give all of these to you. Instead hand over production rights to the remaining three cities to me. “Insufficient contributions are compensated with yellow coins.”

Production rights must be returned to every city.

That was the changed condition of the King of Death.

“There was a city that could supply 150.”

There was piled up on the table twice the amount of coins that the representatives had assured would never be released.

All the hunters present were fascinated by the Demon King’s pile of gold.

Except for one person.

Alphard’s eyes wearing a white mask were calm and undisturbed.

From Alphard’s perspective coins were not in short supply.

But Edgar didn’t seem to think so.

Nirvana’s representative announced the transfer long ago and the remaining representatives raised their voices and shook the silver-armed Edgar.

“The Demon King is crazy now! “If you don’t accept this what are you accepting?”

“Edgar. Think about it calmly. There are 40 yellow coins falling on you. “I’m sure you’ll also raise the two ability levels you haven’t been able to raise until now.”

“If you want to receive it in war contributions rather than coins just tell me! “I’ll exchange it for you!”

“If you don’t exchange it we all lose! “All ten cities must agree unanimously!”

The city’s representatives gathered around Edgar and stood at their necks.

A look of concern was evident on Edgar’s face.

‘I guess I’ll pass.’

Alphard reached a conclusion and raised his hand.

“Representative Deus will accept the Necromancer’s deal.”

Edgar who was left alone without any companions thought about it for over an hour and eventually agreed.

As a result the city alliance received 500000 war contributions and 260 yellow coins and the Demon King received 70% of Ilibatus’ production.

“haha! We are rich! “I’m going to be rich!”

Edgar left behind the happy leaders and went to see Alphard.

“Alfard. The fact that the Necromancer King scatters yellow coins without hesitation…”

“It means that the Demon King’s abilities are already at a level where they cannot be raised with yellow coins.”

“That’s really crazy.”

Edgar couldn’t even imagine.

“All six abilities have reached 1000? really?”

“He was the only opponent who could compare to the traitor Joo Gong-hyeok. In a way it’s natural. but….”

Alphard suddenly trailed off.

“When I piece together the obvious and elaborate facts I see a picture that is completely different from the history I knew.”

* * *

Ilibatus’s productivity completely returned to Joo Gong-hyeok.

‘There is no time to make 70% useless things.’

Ilibatus had to meet the delivery date for the “Titan class” that had been promised as Joo Gong-hyeok’s factory.

The loss of Desertio which was scheduled to produce “dreadnoughts” was also quite a blow.

‘We have to bring them back one by one.’

There are 3 corps remaining and 3 factories remaining.

There is plenty of room for trading.

– Um~

Nathaniel spoke quietly.

– Legion is also a reward prepared by angels. Is it okay if I just pass it on like that?

“There are three left. And there are a lot of limitations to what I can write in the first place.”

A legion is not something that can be 100% utilized just because one person owns it.

The Twilight Legion was a type of clone army produced by copying the characteristics of hunters or monsters.

They were soldiers who recruited hunters above a certain level indefinitely with cheap resources and replaced the regular hunters who died in countless numbers as they rose to higher levels.

Mass production requires enormous resources and manpower a level that cannot be procured by ‘traitors’ who have been ostracized by humanity or ‘dead spirits’ who rule only one or two cities.

‘It would have been different if I had created the human empire as a savior as planned.’

A laugh came out.

As always ‘I’m screwed.’ You can’t go back to the past.

Mistakes cannot be undone and I decided to continue the world with that in mind.

Nathaniel looked down at Gonghyuk a little worried.

– I think you’re sick somewhere these days.

“Have I ever looked normal in your eyes?”

– No that’s true. That and this are different!

The little angel sighed softly.

– People will become stronger as the coins were scattered earlier. With what I just sprayed the number of hunters who have reached Thousand Knight level has increased by five right?

“What is that? “Isn’t it what the angels wanted for humans to become stronger?”

Nathaniel looked into Joo Gong-hyeok’s eyes and answered slowly.

– As people become stronger it will be difficult to end an incident like this without killing anyone.

“don’t worry.”

Gonghyuk stroked the angel’s tan braided hair.

“No matter what happens I am responsible for this world.”

-…

“No matter what happens I mean no matter what I do using all the means I know….”

A dry smile appeared on his lips.

“It means saving this world.”

Nathaniel turned his head without realizing it.

Joo Gong-hyeok’s eyes had a clearer more horrifying glow than she had seen in the past.
