Demon King
Chapter 99 The Rebellion [8]

I have formed an incomplete connection thanks to the Domination skill. It was only natural that I dominated him with violence, but I started talking to him before he was fully under my control. Where Jinma connected us, so it's possible to do so.

[Are you sane?]

[. I don't know. Have I found my mind? If I were sane, what would the world be like?]

[I think you are.]

He was no longer stunned but did not move. He was running out of energy physically, and even his mind was pushed to its limit.

[Why didn't you kill me?]

[If I want, I can, but I don't make a hobby of killing humans for no reason.]

I don't know if he'll be hostile towards me, but at least, he's a Fallen who's hunted by humans. He paused for a moment, pondering my words.

[You are very strong. How can I be as strong as you? Do you have a strong partner?]

[No, but I'm lucky. I was born with good skills.]

I may have been reborn as a goblin and suffered greatly as a result, but I have a good family and a good partner. After Great Fusion, I am also blessed with useful abilities. But more than that, my environment is not normal. I have Predasi and Ebon Heart and Rain and the others standing near me. Without them, I wouldn't have made it this far.

[I was weak at first.]

[.. Did you fall too? But how can you be human .. no, are you really human?]

[It's okay to talk about it more later, but I don't have time now. So let's focus on what we need to do now.]

[..What?]

I decided not to talk.

[If you want to live among monsters, I'll unlock your skills now and take you to safety.]

[…]

[But if you are determined to return to human society, be my subordinate. You won't be able to laugh and chat with other humans, but at least you can stay.]

[Is that possible?]

[This.]

There was only one type of monster that was not hostile to humans, and it was a monster that had been tamed by humans. My ability to dominate was actually a little different from that, but it was similar enough that it was indistinguishable from humans. If this ogre becomes my subordinate, he will no longer fall prey, but become part of someone's army. My army. Touching it would be like a stealing-rebellion against morality and order which is desperately maintained by man. It would not be an unforgivable offense, so he would be quite safe.

Humans did not hunt Fallen as they were monsters that posed a threat to mankind, but rather as a way to level up. Although that motive could not be openly expressed, it was still hiding beneath the surface. As the great guild could not justify their actions, things would become too complicated for them to try and hunt down this Fallen in secret. It was truly a precious monster to hunt when anyone could chase after it without worry.

[But... what does it mean to return to human society if we cannot get along with humans?]

[Right now, you will only talk to them when they die.]

[…]

[You have to find a purpose in it, not me. I can only promise you one thing.]

I think about my past until now, and the people I met. I think about the future, the things I might face, and the path I will take.

[By being my subordinate, you will have a chance to find the reason behind all this.]

[I feel angry, but I never thought I could do anything about this.]

The ogre raised his head. I know that, despite the monster Lee Chan-yu, humans continue to flock to the surrounding area to see what happens.

[But now, I'm sick of living with monsters, breathing the same air as them.]

I couldn't help but laugh at him, a bloody and dry laugh.

[If there was a way to live other than as a monster, even if it led to death, I would be very happy to choose it. And I'll follow the person who made it possible.]

[That's enough for now.]

His condition was perfectly set; the Dominance Skill was able to express itself completely in such a way that no one could break the relationship that bound the ogre and me as master and servant. I could feel his presence to the fullest, the destructive power he had within him, and the deep sadness and anger in his heart.

[My name is Fate.]

[I'm Cain Russell. I am English, originally.]

I paused for a while, curiosity increased in me about how he could move from England to Korea. I decided to postpone the question for later. Right now, I need to focus on clearing up the ongoing situation here.

[Bahahah!]

Once dominance is established, where Jinma begins to flow into him. Although it wasn't enough for him to evolve, the wounds on his body started to recover immediately, and I knew he was stronger. I am confident that Kain could become a higher-level entity if he takes a step forward, which also means I have to train Lee Chan-yu as well, so he will not be toyed with by the new recruits.

[Whoo.].

He opened his mouth, his voice filling the air.

[I feel much better now.]

“The Fallen has recovered!”

“Sials. I knew that person would do something like this…! ”

“Now, this one is mine.” Before the humans around him could become too bold, I declare this.

“What..?”

“Don't listen to him!”

Cain, prostrate.

[Good.]

He leaned over slowly, and I kicked him off the floor to get onto his shoulder. He was over six meters tall, so when he stood up, I could see everyone here. It had a different feeling than floating in the air. Solas eagerly descended upon Cain's head, acting like a child. Unfortunately, I don't have time to play with him now.

“I will say it again: Cain is a monster owned by the Rebellion guild. Anyone who tries to damage our guild's assets should be prepared for the consequences. ”

“Taming The Fallen..”

“Omong empty. Falling in the city…? ”

“If a guild war happens, this is an inexcusable matter!”

A strange atmosphere enveloped the crowd, thousands of emotions mixed between them. All sorts of intense and contradictory emotions swirled around, leading to me.

“A asset ... what do you think the Fallen is ?!” My brother was crying, tears were falling. If there is anyone here who cares about human dignity, it is him. I admire what he has shown today and can only imagine how much effort he has put in so far to struggle through this world until now, how much pain he had experienced. I can't let him do such dangerous things anymore.

“If you have any complaints, please tell me later. I'll explain later. ”

“You...?!” Today, she was almost an enemy of humans and fairies. Fortunately, I stopped him before increasing that far, but tomorrow will not be the same for the Erkindra guild. Change is needed for all of us.

“Lee Chan-yu, let's go.”

Okay, Cap. He laughed cheerfully and called all the monsters to him. He could have let them retreat, but he aligned them to show off the power of the Rebellion and stepped in line with Cain. I patted Kain lightly on the shoulder, and he started walking forward. The already broken path collapsed a little more under his footsteps, but the humans around us were quite afraid to ignore it and let us pass.

“Fabric, can't you be a little smaller?”

[I don't think so.]

“What is not possible?”

We continued together, not a single human stopped us. They were convinced that I had the right to Cain after the battle and had to accept that the Fallen could be tamed.

“Please wait, man.”

The time to talk to people is over.

“Do you claim to have tamed ... this thing?” A fairy suddenly appeared in front of us. Or rather, an Elakatra, not just a fairy. It was a high-level entity that was not inferior to the Red Blood clan, with a familiar type of red scarf around its neck. I stood on Cain's shoulder and looked at the elf, not even in my wildest dreams would there be an Elakatra confronting me here in a respectful manner. Maybe that's the approach they're taking on humans, to deceive them.

“Iya.”

“That's impossible.”

“Why?” The male elf of the Knight Elakatra unsheathed his sword and pointed it at me.

Because it's even impossible for our Elyos.

“If you can't do it, you think others can't?”

“But...impossible!” The elf's eyes were burning with anger, and looking closer, I knew he was soaked in sweat. I remember one of the humans telling me that it was not common to see elves. Maybe they moved more openly because of what happened in the Rookie Battlefield? If that's the case, I can't help but be happy about it. I jumped off Kain's shoulder and landed in front of him, staring straight into his eyes.

“What will you do to determine my ability?”

“... No human has the skills to control monsters with fallen intelligence.”

“How do you know that?” The elf closed her mouth because of the words I threw at her, frowning. The tip of his sword shook slightly and started to descend. All the human attention around us was focused on him, and he had a pitiful expression on his face. She must have been in a difficult situation, so rushed here until she was soaked. Perhaps he could not withstand the physical exertion despite being a higher ranked entity.

“... It is generally known, even by humans.”

“Only with logic and reason?”

“Quickly once.” The tip of the sword was almost completely lowered, still trembling. He was mad at me, and I felt like I knew what he was thinking. “He wants to call me inferior, no doubt.”

“True error, unlike the heavenly ones.” I laughed lightly. I know that, from today on, Elakatra will be watching over me. It was something I prepared from the beginning. What matters is how fast I can grow.

“You don't need to make a mistake today.” I patted her on the shoulder lightly, but it was strong enough to push the tip of her sword completely to the ground. He looked at me like he wanted to strangle me, but I ignored him.

“Even if you think you are in full control. Fallen is more dangerous than other monsters. I have to kill him. ”

“Thank you for the advice. I'll take care of it myself. ” I turned away from him.

“Come go.”

“Difficult after something like that.

[I like this.]

Myu.

I knew my brother and his guild members were after us, but I didn't dare to stop them. I knew that the conversation would be necessary, and it would be best to get it done now before that person showed up again.

‘We need more information about the relationship between human and elf.’

It was the day when I got Solas, a new member of the Rebellion, and made my first contact with Elakatra on Earth.

It was the day that the Rebellion took its first steps.
