Once Romelana and Fenrir appeared, the sky experienced an extraordinary weather where the black night and white night alternated. The black night wolves from the shadows and the white night wolves from the bright white night rushed to bite the demons in the distance.
“Let's go!”
“Sweep everything away!”
After Romelana and Fenrir joined, the morale of the subjugation army was further increased. They ran out crazily regardless of whether they were users or NPCs. It seemed they had already forgotten the demonic energy emanating from Urobork.
Romelana, who was running in lead, bit one of the demons, tore it open, and threw it lightly. Romelana didn’t stop there. One after another, she killed the demons led by Urobork using her sharp teeth and claws filled with cold poison. Fenrir pushed forward with this momentum and the black night wolves and white night wolves mixed in, causing turmoil on the battlefield.
“……”
I stood in the middle of such a battlefield and called out for a man. I hadn’t called him previously because he wanted to focus on training. However, at this moment, I really needed his help. The taurus demons who looked like cows and Urobork weren’t easy opponents.
[Solomon’s Ring has been used.]
[The skill: Friendship Partner has been used.]
[The user ‘Park Muyeol’ will be summoned.]
There was a flash of light right before my eyes and in an instant, Park Muyeol appeared in front of me.
“W-What? Where is this? Why am I here?" Park Muyeol looked around with a confused expression and I hit him on the back while rushing forward.
Park Muyeol shouted with shock, “Y-You bastard! Stop for me—!”
I just smiled and ran with the wind. Surprisingly, Park Muyeol could keep up with my speed.
“……!”
“It is a big mistake if you think that you are the only one who has become stronger. You dared to put me in that pit of hell? I am going to beat you up later, you damn jerk.”
It seemed that Park Muyeol wanted to beat me up to test out his newly acquired sword. He made a huge slash forward. A huge line made of attributeless energy stretched forward and split the jade flame taurus in half. The force behind it was like that of a great mountain.

At the Vulcan volcanic zone, Belphegor's Nest…
It had been a week since Belphegor’s descent to the human world. Phoenix Ignur, whom Belphegor killed, had long since disappeared, so Belphegor took Ignur’s nest to use as his stronghold. The surrounding volcanoes were stained with demonic energy and jade fire overflowed. The power of the jade fire he created swallowed up the surroundings and created a small demon world.
[Hmm, it is boring. Boring.]
As expected of the demon king in charge of sloth, Belphegor was truly lazy. He barely left the nest. There were times when the humans outside formed something called a subjugation army and attacked him. However, the power of jade fire that he created was invincible here. The hot volcanoes were all around him so his power was like a spring that never dried up. This was why Phoenix Ignur made it a nest.
[…What the hell is Lucifer doing?]
Blue jade fire emerged from Belphegor’s nose. He wanted to push down and trample on the human world, but Lucifer had held him back. The 10 days Lucifer promised hadn’t passed yet. In any case, Belphegor was vengeful. He didn’t forget there was a human being who killed his son Minotaur. He would never forget it.
“Belphegor.”
[Yes, Urobork.]
“The humans have attacked again,” the demon general Urobork, the second leader of Belphegor’s jade fire army,spoke as he bowed to Belphegor.
Belphegor picked at his ears like it was annoying.
[It is those humans again?]
“Yes. They are the same human beings.”
[Persistent bastards. Go ahead and push them away. This time, let’s chase them out of the volcanic zone. It is annoying to deal with them.]
“I will do so.”
Urobork, who boasted rugged muscles, bowed his head and stomped out. He was always one of the most sincere demon generals who solved Belphegor’s problems. Belphegor had other generals but this time, only Urobork came over to the demon world.
‘Hrmm.’
Belphegor touched his chin. Even at this time, the humans wouldn’t be able to bear the power of the jade fire and would scream. Belphegor took a nap without any worries, as always. An hour passed after he fell asleep.
Kukukung—!
Suddenly, the sky darkened and a loud noise was heard. Then light flashed and the sky brightened like it became day again. Belphegor opened his eyes at the sudden glare.
[Umm. What?]
Belphegor yawned as he looked up at the sky. This was a very familiar sight.
[……!]
How could he forget? The enemies from the Celestial Palace. The wolves who always harassed him when he was plowing the fields of the gods.
[Remus, Romelana. Those trivial constellations—!]
The cry of the angered Belphegor made the active volcanoes beyond the nest tremble. The demon king of sloth—Jade Fire Belphegor finally abandoned his laziness and rose from his seat.
* * *
“The demon king of sloth…”
Romelana’s poisonous teeth tore at the throat of the demon general Urobork. Urobork collapsed forward helplessly.
Waahhh! Shouts spread like wildfire from all over the place. Everyone raised their weapons and enjoyed the victory. They were full of energy and the sadness of the previous failures seemed to be rushed away.
“……”
I took a deep breath and looked around. The fight that lasted almost an hour was a bit exhausting. Originally, the forces of jade fire should be revived again as burning fire, but it was prevented by the magicians who used water and ice magic. The deep green flames couldn’t burn any longer and disappeared.
“Hmm. Orabeoni is still the same. I couldn’t feel it when watching you on TV.”
Park Maksun grinned and Park Muyeol made an expression that asked ‘Who is this?’. I just chuckled. I couldn’t say anything. Now wasn’t the time to care about this.
“Romelana, Belphegor is in the vicinity.”
[I know.]
“So how about using this momentum to hit him?”
It was striking while the iron was hot. Now was the moment to pull out the horn—Belphegor’s horn.
[There is no need. He’s already coming.]
“…What?”
Dudududu.
Just then, an earthquake struck the ground and hot lava started to flow all over the place. The green lava rose like a fountain and soared into the sky.
“What is it this time?!”
“What’s going on?”
Subsequently, the soaring lava gathered in one place to form a giant taurus. It was like a huge mountain. Belphegor stood up from the ground. A giant cow made of green lava showed itself like a broken eggshell.
[Foolish humans. Acting lazy in front of the demon king of sloth? Your sloth will soon lead you to hell. Kuhaha!]
Belphegor pulled up demonic energy through his body and raised the taurus demons who already seemed to be dead. The overflowing jade fire became a thread and spread out in all directions.
[I will show you the hell of sloth!]
Due to Belphegor, we once again encountered the jade fire army. However, the situation was different from before. Earlier, it had been a face-to-face confrontation. This time, it was unfavorable to us because we were surrounded.
“This is ridiculous…”
“We can’t win.”
“Ahh, I’m going to die here.”
The morale of my allies dropped sharply and they hesitated. However, this didn’t mean we could easily give our heads here. We had to struggle to live somehow. I just didn’t know if we could survive.
[…Aldebaran, you’ve changed a lot.]
[Um, are you Romelana? It has been awhile. Aldebaran… yes, I definitely had such a name. Remus didn’t come with you? Perhaps he doesn’t dare look at me because I took one of his eyes. Hahahaha—!]
Belphegor’s laugh that contained demonic energy caused his body to tremble. The demonic energy was so deep that it made people shudder just listening to it. Just then, Fenrir growled. “Father’s enemy!”
Fenrir appeared from the shadows and quickly bit at Belphegor’s heel. Belphegor slightly frowned. [Is it cold poison? I’ve always hated your cold poisoning. However, it doesn’t work against me anymore. Stop bothering me and get lost.]
“……!”
Belphegor’s jade fire melted Fenrir’s cold poison. Fenrir quickly dove and hid in the shadows again. Then he rose beside Romelana. I frowned slightly. The heel wasn’t a weakness now? Aldebaran’s weakness had been his heel. It seemed that Romelana and probably Fenrir also knew it. In any case, it wouldn’t work anymore. It was a sad thing.
“Demon general Urobork. I thank the demon of sloth for once again giving me life.”
Then the resurrected general Urobork once again knelt in front of Belphegor. Belphegor nodded and pointed his finger at those gathered in one place.
[Kill them.]
“Yes.”
Once again, the cow demons screamed through the battlefield. The troops quickly re-engaged in combat. This time, it would be a more unfavorable fight than before.
“…In the end, I have to call it.”
In fact, I hadn’t called it in the previous fight. It was because now Solar was putting its heart into awakening the phoenix’s egg. However, there was no better way to raise the morale of my allies.
“Solar.”
Solar’s power of the sun had become stronger and it appeared in the air. Belphegor frowned as he sensed the extraordinary power from Solar. I ordered Solar, “Heat Wave Army.”𝐟𝓇ℯ𝒆we𝒃𝘯𝒐νe𝑙.co𝚖
