Raided The God’S Warehouse [EN]: Chapter 613

I Plundered the Demon God’s Treasury – Chapter 613

The Seven Demon Gods gathered in one place.

It was a sight often seen in the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons long ago, but one I thought I’d never see again after a certain point.

Yet, the conference room was spotless, without a speck of dust, and dazzlingly shiny.

Meanwhile, Se-un, having just entered, had to withstand the overwhelming pressure naturally emanating from them with his bare body.

‘This is the pressure of the Seven Demon Gods.’

It was incomparable to when he faced Pan or Triton directly.

Se-un, who hadn’t been intimidated even when confronting Satan one-on-one recently, found facing all Seven Demon Gods at once a completely different experience.

It was only natural. Simply put, he had to endure seven times the pressure he felt when facing Satan.

Fortunately, except for Lucifer, none of them were hostile to Se-un, so it was only this much.

– Master, shall I help you?

Túriq’s voice came from the stigma [a mark or brand on the skin, often with religious significance].

However, Se-un shook his head.

‘It’s not unbearable.’

If he were to borrow Túriq’s power as soon as he entered, startled by the pressure, he would surely be looked down upon by them.

And facing gods like this was a situation he would have to confront someday.

It was good for Se-un to get used to it this time.

“Stand by my side.”

“Isn’t that too much, Mammon? Doesn’t our Se-un have a choice?”

“Our… Se-un?”

“Wouldn’t our Se-un prefer a natural beauty like me over a woman plastered with all sorts of makeup and decorations?”

Before they could even decide on seats, Mammon and Lilith were growling at each other.

I hadn’t expected their relationship to be this bad.

Looking around, none of the Demon Gods seemed to be on good terms.

In particular, some were immediately wary of each other, glaring as if they wanted to kill each other.

“Kahaha! This is troublesome from the start, human! If you want, I’ll allow you to stand by my side!”

“My child, if you’re uncomfortable, you can come to my side.”

“Umnnya…”

“Oh, is this the first time we’re seeing each other in person?”

Satan laughed heartily.

Leviathan watched over Se-un with a gentle smile.

Belphegor was lying on the table, mumbling in his sleep.

Even Beelzebub, who seemed shy or awkward, bowed his head deeply and stuttered as he greeted.

‘Come to think of it, is this the first time I’m meeting Beelzebub?’

I had seen the true forms of the other Demon Gods at least once, but this was the first time I was seeing Beelzebub’s true form.

Even though he had been the constellation I had seen the longest with Mammon since starting the tutorial after the regression, and even recently possessed Se-un’s body.

‘I thought he would be a potbelly or a giant, but he’s completely unexpected.’

Beelzebub, sitting in his seat, looked like a small boy.

He was wearing a coat that was too big for his height, and the epithet of prince wasn’t given for no reason.

Sitting next to Belphegor, they looked like young siblings sitting side by side.

“Everyone, shut up. Do you remember where this is? Now, come here.”

Despite the various solicitations, Se-un ended up standing next to Mammon.

There was no choice because the conference room itself was divided into seven directions according to the Seven Demon Gods, so there was no way to create a separate seat for Se-un.

Some of the Demon Gods seemed to regret or dislike Se-un standing next to Mammon, but it wasn’t the time to complain about seats.

“Now, let’s start the meeting right away. This is… I’ve lost count of how many times it’s been.”

“Umnnya… 31st…”

“Yes, the 31st. The topic of the meeting is what I have…”

“You keep saying it’s yours, but did you get permission? I think I’d feel bad if it was called ‘yours’ without permission~”

“It’s just the truth. Anyway, this topic is ‘The Lesser Key of Solomon’ [also known as Lemegeton Clavicula Salomonis Regis, an anonymous grimoire (textbook of magic) focusing on demonology]. ”

As the topic of the meeting came out of Mammon’s mouth, the chaotic atmosphere of the conference room suddenly calmed down.

Everyone here knew.

The Lesser Key of Solomon. How important and how dangerous the Lemegeton was.

“And it’s about Lucifer’s plan.”

Everyone’s eyes turned to Lucifer.

Lucifer had been frowning since he was summoned here, as if he didn’t like anything.

Perhaps the only reason he was still here was because of the rules of the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons.

If not, he would have stormed out of the conference room long ago.

“So…”

“Shut up. Lucifer.”

“Shut up.”

“Can you stop being so noisy? It’s been hurting my ears since earlier.”

“Ugh…”

“N, not me!”

“These guys are all crazy! Seven Demon Gods or whatever, I need to finish you guys off right now! There’s no need to leave seven, let’s just leave one right now!”

Lucifer finally exploded at the atmosphere that ignored him outright instead of responding to his words.

Divinity emanated from him as he huffed and puffed.

But.

“You fool.”

Sizzle-

The divinity emanating from Lucifer wavered like a mirage and was immediately sucked into the huge round table in the center.

Due to the rules set in the beginning, battles cannot take place in the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons. Even if it’s Lucifer, the Demon God of Pride, one of the Seven Demon Gods.

“Kahaha! Calm down, Lucifer. Shouldn’t we listen first!”

If it weren’t for the rules of the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons, it wouldn’t be strange for a battle to break out among the Seven Demon Gods right away in such a tense atmosphere.

The one who spoke first in that atmosphere was none other than Satan.

At the same time, all the gazes that had been focused on Lucifer were concentrated on Se-un.

“How the human got the first key.”

Some of the Demon Gods nodded.

The first book of Lemegeton, Ars Goetia [a grimoire that contains descriptions of seventy-two demons and the rituals required to summon them].

That existence was that important.

“I heard that Solomon’s Keys are all scattered in places where the constellations’ hands can’t reach. And they’re thoroughly sealed so that they can’t be contracted again.”

“I know that.”

“M, me too…”

“I… I saw it too.”

The ones who answered were not Se-un, but three Demon Gods.

Mammon, Beelzebub, and Leviathan.

The common point was that these three Demon Gods had been with Se-un since the tutorial.

“It’s a key obtained as the first-place reward in the tutorial. Whether the administrator is an idiot or not, it was listed as an additional reward, and my treasure chose it.”

“T, that’s right. I saw it too.”

“However, at that time, it was thoroughly sealed. It was difficult for us to even be sure if it was Ars Goetia.”

“I see! Then when, no, how was that seal broken!”

“That’s…”

The gazes of the three Demon Gods shifted to Se-un once again.

“We’re curious too.”

Mammon was frowning as if he didn’t like that something he didn’t know about had happened.

Leviathan was looking at Se-un with a troubled expression, as if the issue regarding Ars Goetia was something he couldn’t easily cover up.

And… Beelzebub, who had now given up on answering, was secretly taking out snacks from his pocket and eating them.

‘Originally, this wasn’t something to reveal now.’

Nephilim [In Abrahamic religions, Nephilim are the offspring of human women and fallen angels (or sometimes, powerful men)].

I don’t know the details, but I vaguely remember that his position wasn’t very good.

However, it was impossible to hide it now.

“The seal was broken in the trial on the 80th floor. Until then, I couldn’t even imagine that this key was Ars Goetia.”

This was not a lie.

The reason Se-un chose the key as a reward in the tutorial was only because he thought this key was a ‘master key’.

As an adventurer, Se-un knew the importance of keys better than anyone else.

“The 80th floor? If it’s the 80th floor, it’s a place where the remnants of demons remain.”

“How did you break the seal there? This is getting interesting.”

“How did you break the seal?”

“The seal of Ars Goetia… is a seal that even we Demon Gods find difficult.”

“Even Lucifer wouldn’t have been able to use the key as soon as he got it.”

“What? What do you take me for! The seal of Lemegeton and such!”

“Seal and such? You can break it right away?”

“…One month. No, two months would be enough to break it.”

Se-un shook his head.

If Lucifer had obtained the key before the regression and broken the seal in two months, the outbreak of the Holy-Demonic War would have been even faster.

I don’t know the exact timing, but roughly calculating, it would have taken at least a year to break the seal.

“The one who broke the seal…”

Woong-

The key. Nephilim trembled.

A rejection reaction that I shouldn’t say his name now.

Se-un nodded slightly and continued his answer.

“I cannot explain it according to the contract.”

“A contract, huh.”

“Anyway, if it’s the 80th floor, it seems like demons were involved. Does anyone know anything?”

“Even if they’re demons, they’ve already left our authority. There’s no way they’d know.”

“Contract, a contract, huh. That’s the most difficult case. We can’t get an answer.”

“We can’t just let it all go.”

“Yes, there’s the most important question. Human.”

“Yes.”

“Do you…”

Satan’s expression, which had only been jovial, became serious.

Just that alone increased the pressure, weighing down on Se-un’s shoulders.

“Are you planning to betray us?”

The Book of Binding, Ars Goetia.

If you can properly wield that power, you can rule the Seventy-Two Demon Kings according to the contract.

If you gather their power together, even the Seven Demon Gods cannot ignore it.

Moreover, even if you somehow defeat them, defeating all Seventy-Two Demon Kings would create a huge void in the forces of the Evil God.

Ars Goetia was that dangerous.

“No.”

“Then why didn’t you inform us of the existence of Ars Goetia?”

“I can’t say the details because it’s related to the contract, but I have no intention of betraying those who have helped me so far.”

“Hmm…”

I didn’t say all the details, using the contract as an excuse. Honestly, it would be hard to believe Se-un’s words even if he said this.

In fact, not only Satan but also the other Demon Gods were not easily nodding.

“What about Ars Theurgia Goetia [another book related to demonology]?”

“I deliberately sought that out. Because I judged that it was the cause of the Holy-Demonic War.”

“The Holy-Demonic War?”

Satan expressed his bewilderment.

That’s because the Holy-Demonic War happened before Se-un regressed. It’s an event that hasn’t happened yet in this life.

The only ones who understood Se-un’s words were those who knew about Se-un’s regression, like Mammon.

No, there was one more person.

“You, how do you know my plan?”

Lucifer.

He didn’t lightly dismiss Se-un’s words, unlike those related to Goetia.

Although the order was pushed back and he couldn’t say it, the Holy-Demonic War was the biggest highlight of Lucifer’s plan.

“I’m curious too. Knowing Lucifer’s goal and aiming for Ars Theurgia Goetia, and also knowing Lucifer’s plan that hasn’t even happened yet.”

Satan, who had no way of knowing about the regression, couldn’t understand this.

All he explained to him was about the Outer Gods.

To explain this in detail, I had no choice but to reveal the regression.

“It seems like there will be no progress in the conversation if we don’t reveal it.”

Se-un nodded at Mammon’s words.

I wanted to delay revealing the regression as much as possible, but it seemed like the ‘time’ that was hard to postpone any longer had arrived.

“I’m…”

Se-un looked around.

The Seven Demon Gods.

The constellations that can be said to be the main axis of the Evil God.

Is it the right decision to reveal the regression to them?

But the decision has already been made.

Because Se-un, who didn’t trust any constellation, could see it more objectively.

Even though they are demons in charge of the Seven Deadly Sins, they were purer than any god as long as they didn’t correspond to their sins.

“I am a regressor who returned from the Collapsed Tower.”

The eyes of the Demon Gods who didn’t know widened.

Representatively….

“Regressor? Are you telling us to believe such nonsense?”

Lucifer.

However, unlike those related to Goetia, there was a clear witness regarding Se-un’s regression.

“I will vouch for it.”

“Mammon?”

“Everyone has seen the authority of greed that my treasure uses, right?”

“I saw it, why you bestowed authority on a human who isn’t even a disciple of Nethers…”

“That’s not my treasury.”

“What?”

“No, to be exact, I should say it’s not the current treasury.”

“What do you mean it’s not your treasury?”

“If you think about it a little, you can understand, Lucifer. What my treasure is using is the treasury of mine that was buried in the collapsed Hall of Ten Thousand Demons of the Collapsed Tower, that is, the destroyed Tower.”

Mammon’s guarantee.

With this, all the Demon Gods could understand Se-un’s regression.

No, except for one person.

“That can’t be!”

It was Lucifer, the Demon God of Pride.
