Descent of the Demon God

[Editor — Angel says no matter how OP Chun Yeowun is, he’ll still do his cutting of arms ceremony. Tradition is indeed essential to OPness.]

Talisha’s clan — a long time nemesis of the Arisha’s clan.

“You!”

“How dare you act like that to the Grand Duke!”

The Marquis-level demons rose as they were enraged at the sight of their Grand Duke’s arm being cut off. Regardless of how strong Chun Yeowun might seem, they couldn’t let their Lord be humiliated like this.

“You are interfering with the awakening!”

“What kind of match is this?!”

They couldn’t comprehend the match. Grand Duke Kaliaf was defeated without even showing his full strength and was unfairly hindered. That was their thoughts.

“You are all such funny ones.”

Chun Yeowun shook his head while looking at the demons. He was thorough in his battles. His decisions are always based on the most rational judgment to deal with the opponent, and everyone who fought would think that way.

It was funny that those who liked war couldn’t understand the concept and thought it was unfair.

Grand Duke Kaliaf opened his mouth.

“Stop!”

At his word, all the demons who shouted earlier went utterly silent.

“Are you planning to disgrace me through such things?”

To come forward when the opponent hasn’t surrendered wasn’t accepted. When the crowd turned quiet, Grand Duke Kaliaf looked at Chun Yeowun and said…

“You have a shameful attitude.”

“Do you accept defeat?”

At Chun Yeowun’s question, he smiled.

“It’s been a long time since someone looked down on the Grand Duke.”

“This is nothing special.”

“Yes. As you said, it isn’t special.”

Shh!

Grand Duke Kaliaf tried to cover his face again. It wasn’t the other hand but the right hand which Chun Yeowun had cut off.

‘That hand?’

It recovered in a short time. He knew that demons have a quick regeneration ability, but this wasn’t comparable to the demons he had seen.

Chun Yeowun moved quickly.

Pusk!

“Kuak!”

The sword pierced in the Grand Duke’s shoulder was pushed in deeper. While in that state, Chun Yeowun tried to cut the hand of the Grand Duke again.

At that moment, the space around the Grand Duke’s body trembled and distorted. Then the sword that was used moved weirdly once more.

“Did you think that the same trick would work on me again?”

“Is that so?”

Afterward, black energy fluttered from the sword blade.

Creep!

The Grand Duke stretched out his hand towards Chun Yeowun at the terrifying energy he felt. The place Chun Yeowun stood changed.

“Oh.”

Chun Yeowun’s vision, who was trapped inside, seemed to be in disarray. Meanwhile, the Grand Duke flew back and covered his face again with his hand.

Psss!

A sound of his nucleus moving was heard. The demonic power in him exploded, and the Grand Duke’s body transformed.

His whole body turned red like a burning flame, and his nose, mouth, and ears all disappeared. The only thing that remained on his face were his eyes.

The clothes he had on disappeared, and his muscular body turned red.

Shh!

The two swords of five attributes lodged in the shoulder had shattered. It wasn’t able to handle the demonic power of the Grand Duke.

Pang!

As he transformed, the air around felt like it was vibrating.

Even their bodies trembled.

Grrr!

The demons under his command looked at the Grand Duke and his power in awe and shouted at the excitement.

“Wow!!!”

“Advanced Awakening of the Grand Duke!”

It was their first time seeing it, except for the other demons that had lived long and high.

Advanced Awakening —— an awakening that can only be done by those on the level close to the Demon King. It was truly astonishing.

Shhh!

At that time, Chun Yeowun, who seemed trapped in a distorted space, appeared outside.

And the Grand Duke, who saw it, said.

— You can even use space movement?

The marbling prison he created for Chun Yeowun was more than a barrier through which even the high-ranking demons couldn’t escape. However, it was easily escaped by this human.

“Quite a nice ability. Make the space curved and stuff.”

Chun Yeowun, who had reached the Void Master level, was trapped inside and was able to grasp how the Grand Duke controlled space.

The Grand Duke said in a solemn voice as he looked at Chun Yeowun,

— No wonder Duke Bevman was scared to bring you here. Good. I acknowledge it.

“What do you mean?”

— You deserve to compete with my full strength.

Phat!

The Grand Duke’s form vanished from where he was and materialized in front of Chun Yeowun as soon as he stated that. It was quite a surprising speed.

‘Fast.’

Chun Yeowun extended his left arm to the side, and the Grand Duke’s kick flew through there.

Kwang! Papapapk!

Chun Yeowun was pushed back 20 meters after receiving the Grand Duke’s kick. That wasn’t the end.

Shhh!

The Grand Duke appeared on the other side and pushed him again. The Grand Duke hit Chun Yeowun, who was already forced back, but this time from above.

Chun Yeowun crossed both his arms to block it.

Kwang!

At that moment, the enormous destructive forces from the kick brought in a sinkhole in the ground for about 100 meters. A single kick destroyed One-third of the yard.

The demons, who witnessed it, bit their tongues.

‘This is the true power of the Grand Duke.’

With just simple attacks, he was already making the most destruction. Grand Duke Kaliaf spoke to Chun Yeowun with joy, seeing him struggle to block.

— Feel that? This is just 30% of the power I have. If I do my best, the entire castle will be destroyed.

The Grand Duke appeared to believe he had the upper hand once more. A word that his power is enormous.

— I’ve been waiting for this moment—a combat battle with no weapons or tricks being used.

As he said, the Grand Duke didn’t use a spear. The spear was left elsewhere. He was too confident in his Advanced Awakening.

Phat!

What made it worthwhile was that the power of the Grand Duke was beyond imagination. Chun Yeowun’s arms that were crossed were trembling, and the Grand Duke spoke again.

— Is that all? Make it more fun. I have just begun…

“You talk a lot.”

Pnag!

The body of the Grand Duke was thrown upwards. The eyes of the Grand Duke were shocked at the force.

— Right! This is it! You too, come at me with all your…

Shh!

Before Grand Duke Kaliaf could finish his words, Chun Yeowun appeared in front of him and pulled his fist. At that moment, the space twisted. Beyond the warped space, Chun Yeowun’s fist had black energy on it.

‘This?’

The Grand Duke’s eyes noticed that this back energy seemed like an abyss.

Then Chun Yeowun said, “It’ll be troublesome not to kill you.”

— What?

— Kwang!

When Chun Yeowun extended his fist, a tremendous amount of power exploded. The unification of the Spirit Beasts Energies and the Sky Demon Energy—a power that felt incomparable to any.

— Kuak!

The Grand Duke clenched his fists with all his might, unconcerned about the palace or any harm it could do.

Kwaaang!

When the fists of the two collided, a vital energy wave spread out all over the place.

As if dozens of layers of air had been created suddenly, gusts ran out, and the already far away demons were still thrown back.

Papapak!

“Kuak!”

“Acck!”

Some crashed through the wall. The only fine ones were the Duke and the Marquis level demons. However, they also had been pushed back.

‘Is this his level?’

Duke Bevman thought it was absurd. He believed that Chun Yeowun would also try to use that Awakening and fight like the Grand Duke, but he showed this force without even tapping into that power?

Pssss!

The results were surprising. It seemed like the wrist of the Grand Duke couldn’t withstand this power.

‘It was worth it.’

Chun Yeowun looked at his fist. It looked like an average power, but when the unification of the Spirit Beasts Energies and the Sky Demon Energy was used along with the realization of the universe he got, it was a whole different level.

Shhh!

The Grand Duke’s arm that took damage was instantly back to its original form.

However, the surprised Grand Duke said….

— You are really amazing. You have skills that permit you to be arrogant. However, the fight is still unfinished!

Phat!

The Grand Duke once again flew towards Chun Yeowun. Chun Yeowun also moved, and the two collided in the middle.

Bang!

Another layer of gust was created. The walls were utterly blown out this time.

“Kuak!”

Swish!

As they collided, the fist of the Grand Duke has shattered again.

“Haaah!”

The Grand Duke endured the pain and tried to kick Chun Yeowun in the chest.

Bang!

Chun Yeowun, who didn’t see it coming, was hit and was moved back. In terms of attack, Chun Yeowun had the upper hand, but Grand Duke Kaliaf’s kick was quite strong and the blood dripping down from Chun Yeowun’s lips was proof of it.

Chun Yeowun, who was pushed, stopped himself in the air.

Phat!

As Chun Yeowun stopped being pushed and rushed back again with his fist ready, the Grand Duke was also set to block and kick Chun Yeowun in the face.

Kwang!

Both their fists met once again. However, due to Chun Yeowun’s power, the Grand Duke’s fists were destroyed once more.

Shhhh!

The Grand Duke’s arm, which bounced back due to the force and the loss of balance, was restored right away.

It could be said that this ability was what made him still alive.

He spoke excitedly.

— Your punches are really great. However, I am slowly getting used to it. That blood on you is the proof.

He was the Grand Duke who managed to block or hit Chun Yeowun.

Chun Yeowun just wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

— You may have a bit more power, but the difference in the regenerative power will determine the victory or defeat.

“That decides the win or loss?”

— The Grand Duke has the best regeneration among all the demons. Even the wounds which are fatal will be healed in a short time.

Grand Duke Kaliaf raised his regenerating arm and said,

— As time goes by, it gets worse for you. How are you going to deal…

“I guess it wouldn’t matter much if one of the two hands is cut.”

— What?

It was then…

Chun Yeowun drew a sword toward Grand Duke Kaliaf.

At that moment, Grand Duke felt a creepy feeling around.

Slash!

A black line appeared, and his left arm was severed in an instant. It happened so quickly that he didn’t even have the time to react.

“Kuak!”

The severed arm fell to the ground. The Grand Duke could only look at it in confusion.

— Was this your hidden trick? I told you that I have great regenerative…!?

His eyes trembled. He made sure to send the demonic power to heal his arm. Contrary to what he had expected, there was no response.

The black energy on the severed section prevented him from regenerating it.

— W-what did you do?

When the regenerative power he had his complete trust in didn’t work out, the Grand Duke lost his composure and was shocked.

The loss of an arm meant it was a devastating battle to have.

To him, Chun Yeowun spoke casually.

“Consider it lucky that I stopped with just one arm.”

“You!”

A white light flashed from the Grand Duke’s angry eyes.

Dududud!

The entire space around Chun Yeowun began to bend. It wasn’t the same confinement space that he did initially but more like a space to kill Chun Yeowun by crushing him.

“Didn’t you say the same trick won’t work on you again? I’ll say the same to you.”

Chun Yeowun drew his sword. Then the space curving around soon cracked and was back to normal.

Looking at the wide eyes of the Grand Duke, it was definite that he was shocked.

— W-what was that sword?

The Grand Duke was shocked that this sword managed to cut through everything.

Chun Yeowun answered.

“Supreme Sky Demon Sword. There is nothing that this sword cannot cut.”

Supreme Sky Demon Sword.

Of all the techniques Chun Yeowun had, it could be said that this was the strongest and the best.

The single sword which destroyed and slashed everything was nothing short of an enemy to those with regenerative skills like Grand Duke Kaliaf.

The recovery wouldn’t happen.

The stunned Grand Duke looked at his severed arm in shock. After a while, he used the other hand to cover his face and then lowered it. After that, Advanced Awakening was canceled, and he returned to his normal state.

Swish!

Grand Duke Kaliaf returned to the ground, and so did Chun Yeowun. His arrogant and confident appearance had fallen, and the demons under his command were saddened by their Lord’s haggard face.

Looking at Chun Yeowun, the Grand Duke spoke with a bitter face.

“Was it said that there is a sky above the sky? I’m ashamed to have displayed such arrogance before such a strong man as you.”

Surprisingly, the Grand Duke sincerely accepted the defeat. Without twisting his words, he admitted that he was weak.

Thud!

The Grand Duke knelt on one knee. And when he did that, those below him shouted in chaos.

“Your Highness!”

“Do not!”

Because they knew what this meant, as promised, he now acknowledges the defeat he faced and intends to swear allegiance to Chun Yeowun.

Sshh!

Grand Duke raised his hand to calm those under him and said,

“Don’t let me experience disgrace by saying such things. This wasn’t a promise by a noble, but as a warrior to another.”

“Your Highness!”

The demons didn’t try speaking again. It was because of their loyalty to him. Chun Yeowun smiled faintly at that.

‘Not bad.’

Initially, he planned to eradicate all the demons under this one’s command, but then he changed his thoughts after seeing this.

The Grand Duke calmed them.

Woong!

The space above the castle shook one after another, and many beings fell down. The number soon reached a little of fifty.

“T-this?”

The demons under Grand Duke Kaliaf couldn’t hold their bewilderment at this. These people who fell all looked like demons with horns which meant they were high-ranking ones above the level of Marquis with awakening.

It wasn’t the end. The demons from outside the castle walls shouted.

“E-enemy!!”

“Enemy has appeared!”

Like an army, several demons were gathering outside. The number seemed to be around five thousand. Seeing that, Grand Duke mumbled.

“Are they aiming for it now?”

He knew from the number of troops what this meant.

These were the demons under the command of the aides of the Demon King. They were here to take advantage of the weakened state of the castle and the people from battle with Chun Yeowun.

Woong!

Two beings with enormous power finally appeared from the sky.

And when their faces were clearly visible along with the crushing power, Grand Duke Kaliaf’s expression contorted.

“Deruan…!”

Duke Deruan and Duke Legon.

They were the Dukes who were currently in their Advanced Awakening form. Two of the four closest aides of the king have arrived here.

‘Those people! They came here with a plan!’

From the army surrounding them and the ones appearing in the Awakened forms, they were here with a solid plan to get what they wanted. The Grand Duke stood up and spoke to Chun Yeowun as if he felt bad.

“I think that my swearing of allegiance should be pushed away for a while.”

Then raised his hand to bring out Advanced Awakening, but Chun Yeowun stopped him.

“What are you doing? We don’t have the time for this now.”

Chun Yeowun smiled and said.

“You are a lucky one.”

“What are you saying….”

“What a coincidence that you became my subordinate right when this happened.”

Shh!

Afterward, Chun Yeowun covered his face with one hand and then lowered it.

Swish!

At that moment, everything around felt like it was trembling and exploding simultaneously. Even the Grand Duke was pushed back by the force this man was releasing, and he was entirely dumbfounded at what he saw.

The Grand Duke’s eyes widened.

’!?’

Suddenly, Chun Yeowun’s appearance changed from a human to pitch-black darkness.

The Grand Duke couldn’t help but be shocked at the strange form, which looked like burning darkness.

“A-Advanced Awakening?”
