Chapter 487: Cliché (1)

“Thank you for your hard work, Ronove. I can confidently say that it was amazing acting. “We are your fear, your enemy, and your nightmare.” Whew. I give it 110 out of 100.”

-T-That’s embarrassing. It wasn’t hard work. It’s all thanks to the picture that you made. I simply played along. You wrote all the scripts.

“Of course I did. Hahaha. But it was due to Ronove’s ability that it played out properly. I want to open my heart so I can show you how honored I am to work together with you.”

-No. Rather, thank you for giving such a big role to a demon like me. Huhu. Take one more drink. Have some snacks too. Say ‘aah~.’

“Haha. You don’t have to take care of me like that since I’m eating quite well, Ronove.”

-A-Am I making you uncomfortable?

“It’s not that, but I am embarrassed in many ways because you keep saying thank you. Of course, I did give you the role, but I just thought that it would suit you best. I didn’t have any other intentions. When you said trashy Benignore, it was so gratifying. I almost got up from my seat.”

-I’m just grateful to you for giving me the opportunity to insult Benignore in front of the continental people. As you know, I don’t look like a demon, so I almost have no recognition at my current level, but I’m happy since this will make my name known. It was thrilling to pretend to torture Lee Kiyoung, who is called Benignore’s Second Coming. My name must have been engraved in the minds of the continent’s maggot humans.

“Hahaha. Even if it weren’t for me, Ronove would’ve one day become a great demon who instills fear in the continent. You’ve just had few opportunities so far. Recently, there have been fewer disgusting talents that can summon demons. Once this work is over, I will do my best to create an institution that professionally trains black wizards.”

-You don’t have to do that. Of course, we would be thankful, but I know Lee Kiyoung’s place here, so I can’t ask for an unreasonable request. Huhu. Thinking of it again makes me so happy.

“Me too. No matter how I look at it, the picture looks perfect.”

-Lee Kiyoung’s acting ability, suffering behind me, was outstanding. After all, Belial said you had a disgusting soul that is admirable. More importantly, when will you transcend?

“I-I have no plans yet. Belial said that he would provide that I had to wait about 2,000 years even if he hastened it. That’s a bit…”

-It’s nothing.

-It seems that Ronove is interested in the Honorary Cardinal.

“Ballitos. You went too far with your joke that a commander in the 27th Corps is interested in this mere insignificant mortal. I’m grateful, but I’m worried that Ronove might be uncomfortable.”

-Hahaha. How can you call yourself a mere mortal? You’re wearing that miserable body right now, but aren’t you a colleague who will act with us after all anyway? Maybe the day will come when I will serve you. With the achievements that you have accumulated on the continent so far, you will surely reach the top 500 soon. If you build up a little more, you may be in the top 100.

‘Why do you keep treating me as a colleague? You…’

“Ahem.”

-If you rise through the ranks later, I hope you will never forget the name Ballitos…

“Oh, how could I forget Ballitos’ name?”

-This is a small gift. I hope you can think of it as my feelings and accept them.

“Why did you…”

-I don’t know if it suits your taste but do check it out properly. You probably won’t be disappointed.

-I, too, prepared a small present.

“Oh, Limur. I’ll feel sheepish if even you are giving me a gift.”

-Please accept it. I’m giving it to you because I’m very grateful.

“I feel like I only keep receiving, so it’s a bit overwhelming. It would be a little nice if I could give you something in return. Unfortunately, all the basics of your life are in a different place…”

-Don’t bother too much. It’s already a great gift to have Lee Kiyoung working with our 27th Corps.

-Limur is right. Hahaha.

“I really don’t know what to say in return for your high praises. Hahahahaha.”

‘This is heaven. This is heaven.’

I felt bad for the busy Blue members, but I was definitely in heaven.

There were food and drinks that I had never heard of or seen piled up like a mountain in front of me. I thought that it might be a sumptuous feast.

It looked a little ugly, but the chair I was sitting on was also very fluffy, and the skills of the maids massaging my shoulders and legs evoked the illusion of being taken care of by professional masseuses.

I had already expected to be treated well, but I was being treated much better than I imagined.

Since he was in a good mood due to receiving a decent role, I even enjoyed the luxury of Ronove feeding me.

Behind me were gifts containing rare and priceless treasures which couldn’t be found on the continent.

‘This is what I can call rewards I can take with me later…’

I even thought it wouldn’t be too bad even if I went to hell upon death.

I didn’t know what Benignore and Elune would offer, but it would be much better to enjoy the spectacular life of demons than to live a boring, ascetic life.

Benignore had given me nothing but responsibilities, but Belial gave me sweet liquor, gold, silver, and treasures. There was no need to point out which side was more attractive.

The thought of going up was thrilling.

However, Benignore could pledge to live her life like a servant, taking me as her husband.

No, even if that were the case, I thought it would be more beneficial to go to Belial’s camp.

‘Think about the future now won’t solve anything.’

It would be more efficient to solve the immediate problem first.

At the dinner party held for executing the first intro video beautifully, Limur’s face bothered me a bit.

She was staring at Ronove, who was sticking right next to me, with a disapproving expression. Somehow, she seemed a little jealous of Ronove’s role.

No, she must’ve felt worried that she would be left out.

I could understand her thinking that way because not all of the roles had yet come out.

‘Since you’re Belial’s pick, you can trust me, Limur. Why won’t you believe me after I said that?’

Basically, they showed warmth towards me, but they were equipped with distrust and doubt.

It was like watching actresses fight in real-time.

Ronove continued to feed me with the delicious food while Limur filled my empty glass.

It wasn’t just those two women.

The men’s behaviors weren’t that different, either. It was a little different from the two of them, but as the size of bribery in the form of gifts was growing, I could see how much they thought of that opportunity as golden.

‘In fact, I’ve already roughly decided.’

I had already classified those who were going to go up and those who would be left out. Essentially, I determined the ones to live and the ones to die. There was a bit of Belial’s touch, but I didn’t think it was all that bad, either.

It was an operation to remove the rotten eggs of the 27th Corps, which could be classified to be of average level.

‘Belial’s decision is certainly reasonable.’

There was the side that raised the chicken that lay golden eggs and the side that disemboweled it. It was obvious as to which of the two was more beneficial.

No matter how I thought about it, the hard-lined group was caught up on the get-rich-quick fever.

As for myself, who had to manage the continent, I had a better relationship with the former than the latter.

‘Those who can help more are better.’

It was only a few minutes ago that I promised to think about the future later, but who knew if I’d be working with Belial in 2,000 years?

It wasn’t bad to look good in advance.

As I glanced at the other end, I started to see a guy sipping alcohol alone with a face that looked as if he didn’t like everything that was happening. He wasn’t a suitable guy for the 27th Legion, no matter who looked at him.

He had a big body covered with muscles. Six large horns grew above his head, equipped with four eyes.

Having a large ax next to him like a lover, he looked more like a military officer.

Ronove had a thin fluttering tail and small wings over her head.

Limur was a tentacle woman who had a face as beautiful as a goddess.

Their aura was different from demons like Ballitos, who looked more virtuous.

‘Donovan, 1,256th in the rank of the demons.’

He would be a source of experience for precious Blue party members.

‘Although he’s a semi-mythic-grade being…’

The possibility of using him that way wasn’t entirely absent.

Rather, it would be a little more difficult to deal with the ones like Limur and Ronove.

Naturally, those who could think properly were trickier to handle than those that ignorantly pushed through with brute force.

If Jung Hayan, Kim Hyunsung, Cha Hee-ra, and Elena teamed up and attacked all at the same time, I predicted that they could overcome him, even though it would prove to be quite hard.

‘After all, I’m the only one that thinks of you guys.’

I sometimes broke their hearts, but in the end, it was all for the sake of the bigger picture of the guild. However, everything was going just as I had expected.

‘It will take a week for the operation to retake the Federation to start.’

I thought it would be shortened by two days because they would be worried sick after seeing the magic hologram. However, it could take another week due to the people of the Federation.

Unless extreme means were chosen, no, even if extreme means were chosen, it would almost be impossible to shorten that period.

As I looked around, I cleared up my throat, and the gazes became focused on me. They must have noticed that the words they have been waiting for would soon be delivered.

“Ahem, ahem…”

-Do you have anything else you want to say?

“I have something to convey rather than something to say… Maybe from tomorrow, a simple individual interview will take place.”

-Ah…

“It’s time to start allotting roles in earnest… It should indeed go a little faster, but Belial said he wants to give everyone an equal opportunity. We are sorry that this took a long time to prepare.”

‘Belial has to buy me a meal at least once. Really.’

“Each role has a different weight, but I would like you to know that all roles are important.”

-Of course. Is there even a role that doesn’t matter? S-so can you tell us what roles we can apply for?

“It a little complicated to tell you everything here. If I have to reveal the most important positions right now, I think it would be the Four Guardian Kings. Think of them as heavy roles that would support Belial, like the Four Demon Generals.”

-Four Demon Generals…

-F-Four Demon Generals…

‘I guess these guys like these things.’

It’s a bit classic, but how could the Four Demon Generals be left out of the advent of the Demon King?

There was a reason that clichés worked well.

“Oh, before that, Ronove, let’s take another video today. This time, I’ll ask you to be a bit more dreadful. Hahaha!”

-It would be my honor!

Of course, the cliché where the princess kidnapped by the Demon King was saved was also one of the most notable classics.
