Chapter 162
His name, which stained Arcadia with blood and engulfed Arcadia in the past, was a notorious fear that made even a crying child stop.
But now, that fearful being was sitting alone in a dark warehouse with the lights off, guarding the shattered pieces of his weapon, Deathbringer, the divine god of the underworld.
“Ew fuck. Even in later years, even if the villain was twisted, it was really messed up.”
However, Tan, who once did all sorts of foolish things in Arcadia, muttered, lamenting his miserable situation.
“Somehow, I seem to be getting involved in that bastard’s pace without even realizing it...”
One day, a forcibly concluded familiarity contract.
As a result, Tan, who manifested in Arcadia in the size of the imps widely scattered on the roads of the Pandemonium with almost all powers restricted, was resentful at first, but when he realized the identity of the latent powers of humans who seemed ignorant of the world, he realized that this was a great opportunity. realized that
‘Let\'s see... If we remove the probability as much as possible and use it to drive out the forces of the celestial world...?\'
Tan began to cooperate with him, envisioning a grand plan to turn Arcadia into an evil world again. However, contrary to his initial intention, everything began to go strangely wrong.
“It\'s all because of that damn chicken.”
Archangel Michael.
His nemesis who has existed since the beginning of time, and a goddamn existence who always puts a gouge on the plans he has been preparing and promoting for a long time, and stuffs a big and huge taffy into his mouth. Because of her suddenly appearing and claiming to be her guardian angel as always, Tan had no choice but to compete with her by opening his eyes and putting on a desperate butthole show that he couldn\'t bear to see.
“Ugh... if it wasn\'t for that chicken wing child... how much is the probability that I would have earned?”
Originally, Tan had planned to lend his strength as if he were patronizing while ripping off probability through ridiculous profiteering. However, every time he tried to cheat even a little bit, the probability that Tan had earned by following Jaeyoung was ambiguous enough to barely avoid a deficit because of El who would tell and reveal that it was not the regular price.
“No, it’s a total loss. My sword is broken because of that fried chicken.”
Deathbringer, the Goddess of the Pandemonium, was brutally torn to pieces as a retaliation measure for destroying one of the holy places. It was nothing else but a symbol of precepts, and it was an absolutely necessary weapon to bring out 100% of his power, so Tan risked his life and death to find a way to fix it.
“This... is probably hard to fix. If it\'s just broken, I\'ll try to fix it somehow, but most of the existing power has been tainted by the powerful divinity. It is impossible to go back to the way it was before, even if we put all our resources into restoration...”
Even if you go to the devil who is most proficient in crafting in the Pandemonium, you will lose all divinity and fall into vanity, drifting in the flow of time like an eternity. Even if you go to the ancient deity with difficulty and inquire. A situation where no one shakes their head and says recovery is difficult. In such a hopeless situation, Tan had no choice but to cling to Jae-young more desperately than ever.
“If you do as I say, you never know. Maybe you can restore it to its original state.”
A human being who uses probabilities as he sees fit and does all sorts of nonsensical things. At the same time, an insane person who knows that he is great and uses it as bait to pamper himself, the absolute and supreme being of the demon world.
Tan himself felt very well that he was openly being used, but he couldn\'t overturn the game because he was heartbroken. No matter what, the place where Jae-young passed was full of chaos and ruin, and the things he did to achieve what he wanted were so evil and vicious that he, as a devil, could see admiration.
That\'s why Tan, with a bitter taste, took out a black scroll today and wrote down notes.
All the basic knowledge of viciousness that must be learned as a devil.
At the same time, in the distant future, he hopes that all demons will be able to follow his claws, believing that the day will come when his tearful butthole show will one day turn dark.

On the third continent of Arcadia, there was a country of a special type that could not be found on other continents.
“Isn’t there a need for a trading city where you can trade what you need freely without being bound by any interests?”
“It would be nice to have a place where we can negotiate with peace of mind even in conflict situations like war.”
Kingdoms and empires spanning entire continents. Although each goal was different, the permanent neutral city-state and completely free trade city of Bailan was intentionally created according to the strategic interests of each country.
Because of the geographical advantage of being the center of the continent and the great advantage of gathering all the products from the entire continent, there were also many adventurers who enjoyed playing with this place as a base.
“Come on cheap! it\'s cheap! A top-notch handcrafted weapon handcrafted by artisans. Go see it.”
“I’m selling the magic book I just hunted! It’s the 3rd circle, so please suggest a reasonable price.”
“I buy gold. I want to buy in bulk at the average market price. We start by verifying your identity in real life.”
Unlike other places, it is overflowing with rare materials as well as expensive items, and a city with a large amount of gold circulating on the continent. And Jaeyoung, who stepped into such a city, muttered while looking around with strange eyes wearing a mask of deception.
“Ohhh... Are there people who openly buy gold in this way?”
Cash transactions that usually take place online, knowingly or unknowingly, negatively. Of course, Arcadia has never officially banned or sanctioned it, but in the case of Korea, where it is illegal under the current law, I couldn\'t find wallet warriors who would buy it in cash. However, those who do not care much about this part show off their wealth and buy gold indefinitely. And Jaeyoung secretly looked at the equipment they were wearing and muttered with a look of surprise.
“The level of the continent here is a little behind than I thought.”
Wallet warriors who are equipped with better equipment than anyone else and go ahead with abundant gold using real wealth. However, looking at the level of equipment that seems too ordinary for such things and the level that doesn\'t look that high, it seemed like there was a huge gap compared to the Korean continent.
“Hmm... I think it\'s definitely like that, but I think it\'s probably because of Dex-sama\'s influence?”
“huh? I?”
L heard Jaeyoung muttering to himself. At her meaningful words, Jaeyoung asked with an expression as if what she was talking about. Then L looked at him with eyes that seemed like he really didn\'t know and said.
“You really don\'t know? Why did this place have such a difference from the original continent?”
“...I don’t know, do you?”
Jaeyoung seems to have no idea. After staring at him for a long time with an absurd look, L sighed and started talking.
“First of all, you provoked the Holy Empire by summoning a lich who had gained notoriety hundreds of years ago for no reason just because you destroyed a ducal territory, right?”
“Why?”
“Because of that, it was clearly imprinted on all humans who chose between good and evil, including adventurers. The fact that if you don\'t have the strength, you can be brutally beaten without any resistance.”
The great divide between good and evil.
Until now, whenever Arcadia Korean branch is cursed, it is mentioned as a regular customer and talked about as the worst event witch hunt ever.
Because of that incident, the users of the good and evil camps had irreversible hostility to each other, and since then, the users of the Korean continent have been burning up every day with extremely fierce competition in everything including levels.
“If we don’t protect the Maroon Kingdom, we don’t know when we’ll get infinite PK from those damn priests again.”
“How long was the peace treaty supposed to last? Did you say three years?”
“Look at this fuck. Until then, we\'ll just riot and then attack in reverse and burn the entire Holy Empire.”
The users who are selling out by pouring everything into growth while sharpening the blade of revenge for the things they suffered at that time. It was not Jae-young\'s intention, but the enmity and hatred for each other became a powerful driving force to grow faster than any other continent.
“In addition... in the midst of that, a peace treaty was concluded between the elves and dwarves at the right time, and the doors of these two races, which had been firmly closed, were opened to humans, right?”
A race of dwarves with blessed dexterity that specializes in crafting and creates all sorts of rare and high-performance items like child\'s play.
Elves, the guardians of the World Tree, who are friendly with nature, command spirits, and create their own unique spirit magic, mystical archery, and artifacts with special magic.
Items and skills that began to spread little by little from the two races, each with special talents and powers. In the case of the Korean continent where Jaeyoung was playing, as there were even users who stood out by acquiring hidden classes, the power of users was rising steeply to an abnormal extent.
“...How the hell do you know that?”
The aftermath that I never thought about. Seeing L talking about unknown information unless he directly checked the data, Jaeyoung asked in bewilderment. But she just smiled strangely and muttered as if talking to herself.
“It\'s just... I can see it.”
Tan and the people around him couldn\'t see it, but it was always visible in El\'s eyes. The gigantic causal storm that swirls around Jaeyoung and the countless threads of karma whose number cannot even be measured are connected in all directions.
That\'s why L did not actively intervene even if Jae-young\'s actions were vicious and evil that collided head-on with the banner pursued by Heaven. Because if she dared to intervene and touched him, he couldn\'t handle the aftermath of the probability that would rage out of control. Jaeyoung, who was tilting his head at the words that he could not understand the exact meaning of, changed the topic as if he had remembered.
“Ah, by the way... I have a question for you.”
“yes. What do you mean?”
“The Deathbringer you destroyed yourself before... When I tried to persuade you that I could restore it, I honestly thought you would intervene, saying that it would never work.”
Saying it was a long-cherished wish, the Deathbringer was shattered by pulling out several pillars of the celestial world. It was she who would have consumed a huge amount of probability by going to the descent herself for that, so I thought she would make a fuss saying that she would never see that, but Jae-young was honestly surprised by L\'s reaction, which was quieter than I thought.
“Oh is that it?”
L responds to Jaeyoung\'s words with a smile. She said with a confident face as if she knew everything.
“I knew that was just a saying.”
“....okay?”
“Sure. You said it would have a probability of 20 million, but honestly, how is it so easy to collect that much probability?”
Even if you add up all the probabilities earned so far, it is a huge figure that is far short of it. It was a target that I didn\'t know when it would be and probably had little chance of realizing it, so Jaeyoung didn\'t think about it and just threw it out. Of course, Tan, who was desperate to restore the Deathbringer, didn\'t seem to be able to look at it soberly.
“That’s why I like Dex.”
“....what?”
Looking back at Jaeyoung, who seemed to ask what he was talking about, L smiled wide and said that he was really happy.
“Because I don\'t think I\'ve ever seen someone so pitifully fuck that damn bat like this in my entire life.”
“.....”
Jae-young catches even the demon king.
His actions were obviously vicious, but somehow he didn\'t hate them.
