[Yes, the demon world is fairly complex, but there are some simple aspects. Most demons are directly or indirectly influenced and controlled by the Demon King who rules that area, though there are some differences in whether it’s direct allegiance or indirect domination.]
‘Ah ha, so even vampires like Lord Kasha are considered to be under indirect domination. Is that why I couldn’t have him?’
[That’s right, but there is a big exception for other beings like a Great Demon. They live outside the Demon King’s territory and don’t seek to be ruled by anyone. The basic explanation is that they’re just ignorant demons who know nothing but physical power. They hunt down monsters and kill other demons passing through their territory to strengthen themselves.]
‘I don’t know who wrote that description, but I’m pretty sure it was a normal demon.’
[I think so.]
Since the description spoke negatively about the Great Demons, the description must have been written by a normal demon harmed by a Great Demon.
“Khaaaa!”
Kurrrr!
The Great Demon that had fully emerged from the magic circle stretched its body and let out a roar. It was so strong that its mere roar caused the area around it to shake.
‘As expected, Great Demons aren’t just big for the sake of being big.’
[That’s right.]
The summoned Great Demon looked similar to goblins recorded in traditional Korean legends. It looked like a red goblin. Its skin was a deep pink, almost magenta, and it had one purple eye. It originally had two eyes, but the other had a scar around it, possibly from an injury.
Whoosh!
“Krrrr!”
The weapon it was carrying was unfortunately(?) not a goblin club. Instead, it was a double-edged battle ax.
Chrrrr!
That wasn’t all.
The red goblin didn’t just have a battle ax, but a mace on a chain attached to the end of the ax handle.
It was a strange and inefficient weapon, but the red goblin was so large that it didn’t seem to have much trouble using it.
“Khehe, this will be fun.”
“Khaaa!”
Whoosh!
The red goblin immediately swung its battle ax at Han-Yeol even though the dark mages didn’t order it.
‘Hmm, it really is a stupid demon that doesn’t know anything except combat. It forgot the basic contract of a demon and jumped at me solely because I look strong.’
[That’s right.]
‘Still, this isn’t so bad.’
Crack!
Han-Yeol’s eyes turned red, and his body expanded.
‘Blood Strengthening.’
His top ripped open, revealing a colorful pattern that glowed red.
Blood Strengthening wasn't merely a cool skill but a tremendous power that greatly enhanced his physical abilities.
‘It’s been a while since I’ve done this!’
Han-Yeol didn’t dodge the battle ax. Instead, he swung his Jabberwock Sword.
Whoosh! Clank!
‘Ha, this is thrilling!’
“Kha?”
The red goblin made a dumbfounded sound as its battle ax was blocked by a tiny being that was probably less than a hundredth of its size.
For a moment, the red goblin didn’t understand what was happening, but it quickly returned to its senses and swung its battle ax again.
‘That’s it! Keep it coming!’
Clank! Clank! Clank!
The Jabberwock Sword and battle ax clashed several times, sending powerful vibrations and sparks in all directions.
“Hahaha! Come at me stronger!”
“Khaaa!”
The red goblin didn’t understand what Han-Yeol was saying, but it instinctively knew that he was looking down on it, so the red goblin expanded its muscles and maximized its physical abilities.
“Huh?”
Boom!
‘Agh!’
