The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live A Normal Life [EN]: Chapter 452

In the Demon King’s castle, a man stood by the window, looking out at the world.

He had long black hair that reached his waist and skin as white as bone. Dark circles under his eyes made him look tired, not like a powerful Demon King.

But even though he didn’t look like it, the creatures of the demon world knew who he was. They wouldn’t dare come near his castle.

Then, a sound broke the silence. A commotion was starting.

Someone was coming fast. The Demon King could feel it and stood up.

“Roman Dmitry. So, you were the real deal.”

The Demon King knew about the Third Corps Commander of the Demonic Realm. They had been completely defeated.

He had watched it all happen from his castle. He felt a shiver as he saw them fall.

The Third Corps Commanders were strong. They had survived the time when the demon world was in ruins because they were powerful. The Demon King had sent them to test Roman Dmitry.

And what happened?

It was perfect.

Roman Dmitry hadn’t even used all his power against them. The Demon King felt excited when he saw him kill Belzelt and give a warning.

“I have always been waiting for someone like you.”

The Demon King was born powerful. From the moment he became aware, he had power no one could touch.

He was a natural predator.

During the time when the demon world was in ruins, he showed how strong he was. He fought many battles and never lost.

He was just following his instincts. But then, the creatures of the demon world started calling him the Demon King.

That’s when his life became boring. No one dared to challenge him, so he had no one to fight. Fighting was the only thing that made him feel alive.

Days passed slowly for the Demon King. He tried many things to stop being bored, but nothing worked.

Then, one day, he found some old records.

They told about a time before the demon world was in ruins. A time that no one remembered.

The records said that the demon world had been attacked by beings from another dimension.

These beings were strong. They attacked just to destroy things. The war they started almost destroyed the demon world.

That’s how the demon world became ruined. The demons survived, but the old ways were gone because of that attack.

The Demon King became interested.

He didn’t see it as a story of defeat. He saw it as a way to stop being bored.

He had great power. So, he thought, why couldn’t he travel to other dimensions like those beings who had attacked the demon world?

He knew that if he did, he would find someone strong who could give him a good fight.

That’s why he started planning to go to the human world. When Aleksandr appeared, he knew how to do it.

But the invasion of the human world didn’t go as planned. The war started for many reasons – the Demon King’s desire, the chance to rebuild the demon world – but the deaths of the Third Corps Commanders were leading the demon world to ruin.

But the Demon King didn’t care.

He was willing to sacrifice the entire demon world just to meet a strong opponent.

That was the truth for the creatures being eaten by the predator.

They had proven that Roman Dmitry existed. That was their purpose, and they had died for it.

The sound was getting closer.

The Demon King turned around.

“Roman Dmitry. Please, delight me.”

Now, it was his turn to have fun. He had waited long enough.

Even battles that happen over and over eventually end.

Roman Dmitry had been killing enemies without stopping. But then, he saw the monsters running away.

A path opened up.

He could see the Demon King’s castle in the distance.

“I guess that means he’s going to face me directly now.”

That was fine with Roman Dmitry.

He wanted it too. He started walking towards the castle.

He wasn’t thinking about strategy this time.

If the Demon King tried to trick him, he would defeat him with one blow. But if the Demon King was strong enough to fight him head-on, he would be happy to meet his expectations.

He wanted it badly.

When he reached the Demon King’s castle, he saw someone in the sky, surrounded by purple light.

“Roman Dmitry. Finally, we meet.”

It was the Demon King.

He floated down as if he were walking on stairs. He looked like he was enjoying this moment.

He looked Roman Dmitry up and down.

He saw that Roman Dmitry was a human and didn’t have any divine power. He was impressed.

“To become so strong in a human body. I’ve lived a long time, and you’re the first like this. So, I want our fight to be amazing. I want us to give it our all.”

Purple magical power exploded from the Demon King.

His eyes glowed with purple light, and he looked ready to kill.

“From now on, my soldiers will attack the humans you brought. They are weak and won’t last long. Roman Dmitry, give your all. If you want to save your people, you will have to defeat me and help them.”

Just then, the rearguard was in trouble.

The attack happened suddenly.

The rearguard had stopped to rest after finding the Demon King’s castle. Then, monsters appeared from everywhere.

“It’s the enemy!”

“Enemies have appeared!”

“Everyone, prepare for battle!”

They were in a bad situation.

There were too many enemies.

They had fought a lot of enemies before, but this time it seemed like they were surrounded by darkness.

“Ack!”

“Kraaah!”

A bloody battle began. The monsters attacked, and the soldiers fought back. Screams came from everywhere.

The soldiers of the Continental Allied Forces were tired.

They fought bravely, but they were outnumbered. Even when they killed three or four monsters each, it wasn’t enough.

Crack!

A soldier was fighting bravely. He killed four monsters, but then he was killed by the monsters rushing at him.

This was happening all over the battlefield.

The swordsmen of Dmitry were strong, but there were too many enemies this time.

They were not Roman Dmitry.

Everyone was tired. They fought hard, but it looked like they would lose.

“Hell Fire.”

“Fire Storm.”

Whoosh.

Fwoooosh.

Rumble!

Orange and yellow flames roared around the demons, licking at their skin and turning it black.

It was Edwin Hector and Felix.

Edwin and Felix came with the army to fight demons. Now, things were very bad. So, they used their strongest magic, called ‘Burning’.

Flames surged, threatening to burn the world, killing all the demons. This was planned from the start.

The mages would save their power, controlling how much they used. But if things got really bad, they would use all their power right away.

This meant one thing: Edwin and Felix were the last hope.

Edwin Hector, covered in flames, used all his magic.

“Everyone, fall back! Volcano!” Edwin shouted.

Boom!

Rumble!

The ground collapsed. Dust and smoke filled the air. For a moment, the soldiers could not see. Had it worked?

Giant stones flew up, tearing the demons apart. Lava poured out, melting their skin.

His hair blew in the wind and turned red.

With Edwin Hector leading the way, the mages used all their magic. For a moment, it looked like the army was winning.

But it didn’t last.

Through the flames, huge, black monsters with sharp horns like swords charged forward. Their eyes glowed red, and they smelled like burning meat.

“Kraaah!”

Boom!

Crack!

The monsters swung their weapons, knocking soldiers away.

These monsters were the strongest demons.

These monsters were not smart. They couldn’t think clearly. But they were very strong, even stronger than other demons. They kept fighting even in the fire.

And there were many of these strong demons.

They were everywhere. The magic cleared some space, but more demons quickly filled it.

Edwin felt his mind fading.

The army was tired and couldn’t fight much longer after Roman Dmitry had already weakened the demons.

‘This is the end,’ Edwin thought.

Edwin Hector gritted his teeth.

He grabbed his chest.

If he used his hidden power…

He might win. This hidden power was a special energy inside him that was very strong but hurt him to use.

It would hurt him later, but Edwin was ready to do anything to win.

‘I must do something. Anything,’ he thought.

Just as he was about to use his hidden power…

Thwack.

“Kraeeeh!” The demon screamed.

Kevin, covered in blood, stabbed the demon in the neck with his sword.

Boom!

Rumble!

Kevin stood in the middle of the battlefield.

He fought his way through the enemies, angry at how bad things had become.

“Damn it,” Kevin said.

They were losing ground.

People were dying.

He was really angry at himself for not being as strong as Roman Dmitry.

If he were stronger, he could have helped Roman Dmitry. He didn’t like that he was only cleaning up the leftovers.

And now, they were losing even to these weakened demons.

He watched the endless wave of enemies, and his anger grew.

‘Even if I can’t help my lord, I won’t be useless to him,’ he thought.

Crack.

He gritted his teeth.

His eyes changed.

Kevin was controlling his madness.

But now, he let the evil spirits of the Ghoul Demonic Art take over his mind.

[Kyaaak!]

[Kyakyakyakyak!]

[Kill them all!]

Swish.

Rumble!

Kevin disappeared.

He jumped into the air and landed on the shoulder of the strongest demon. The demon was angry and attacked Kevin.

But Kevin cut off its shoulder, climbed onto its body, and stabbed it in the neck.

Thwack!

Thwack, thwack, thwack!

Blood sprayed everywhere.

His face was covered in blood, but Kevin used his power and kept cutting at the demon’s neck.

The demon staggered.

It tried to shake Kevin off, but it couldn’t and fell to the ground.

Boom!

Rumble!

This was just the start.

As soon as Kevin killed one strong demon, he attacked another.

His eyes were wild, and he didn’t look human anymore.

He moved like a beast, dodging attacks. Kevin let himself go mad and killed any enemy he could.

Kevin was controlling his madness, but also letting it take over. This was new.

Even the person who made the Ghoul Demonic Art never did this before.

Flash.

Rumble!

He used the Reverse Flow.

He fought with the smaller strong demons, and their heads exploded.

Kevin’s power grew stronger. He was covered in blood and looked like a demon himself.

Splatter.

He didn’t care about the blood. He showed his teeth to anyone who looked at him.

“Everyone, remember this,” Kevin said. “We came here to fight the Demon World. If we lose, humanity will die. We have to win to survive.”

Snap.

He ripped off a demon’s neck.

The demon sprayed blood and fell to the ground.

“You will all die here!” Kevin shouted. “If I can’t help my lord, I won’t be useless to him!”

Crack.

He stomped on its head.

Then, he walked past the demon’s body and charged into the middle of the enemies.
