Overgeared

Chapter 1842

It was a vast wilderness, desolate without a single blade of grass. There was only gray and barren land as far as the eyes could see.

That was the case until just a little while ago.

Kurururung!

There was a roar and the ground shook. Finally, it cracked and collapsed. The hilly terrain formed was very wide. In the midst of it, a color was added. It was a red light. It was a color caused by lava flowing down every gap in the terribly damaged ground.

“Kikik... I can’t believe it...”

At the center of the newly formed hilly area, there was a demon lying motionless and submerged in lava. It was originally a great demon.

The single digit great demon who used his own power to occupy the 9th throne that had become vacant after the Great Human and Demon War—he rushed to the city at Baal’s call only to be attacked by a magician. As he was being pushed on the defensive, he was stripped of his throne.

It was by Baal. The throne that he took purely with his own power—that which he believed was entirely his abandoned him the moment Baal desired it.

“I have been dancing on the palm of his hand from the beginning... Kukuk.”

The demon who became a great demon, Daltonjyul, laughed. He hated Baal, not the magician in front of him who made him this way.

Braham, the magician who stood stepping on his shoulder, opened his mouth, “The problem is that you, a demon, trusted and devoted your loyalty to others.”

It was obvious ridicule. It was as if he was speaking to the demons who must be watching the scene from somewhere.

“Is it reasonable for an evil demon who enjoys deceiving and harming others to trust and serve others?”

Demons easily betrayed others. It was right to keep in mind that they could always be betrayed by others as well. However, the demons who served Baal all trusted him. They served him like he was a monarch, a parent, and a teacher. At this point, they weren’t evil demons but innocent beings. They had an extremely positive view of the world.

“Yes... it wasn’t supposed to be like this. So why...” Daltonjyul’s eyes shook violently as he muttered. He looked confused. Why did he trust Baal and was loyal to him? No matter what favor Baal showed him, it was right to feel doubt and dream of betrayal.

Yet he didn’t do that Was he brainwashed without knowing it? No matter how he looked back, there were no signs of it.

Braham looked down at the confused demon and realized something. ‘They aren’t innately evil.’

The present hell was distorted. It had developed into a completely different form from Yatan’s intention to create this place as a ‘shelter’ for the dead.

Were demons evil in the first place? Were they called demons in the first place?

It was said that the hell of the past that Grid saw in the No Offspring Tomb wasn’t much different from the surface. It was as ordinary as the safe zones where Yatan’s statues were located. Yes, they would’ve been normal at first. There was no reason why beings born in hell should be born evil. Just like the humans born on the surface, some were good and others were evil. It was reasonable to think that the demons and demonic creatures of hell also had different natures.
