Chapter 379: Bring Down the Ancient Aerial Fortress! 2

Bring Down the Ancient Aerial Fortress! 2

* * *

The Great Evil Spirit, Engee Albitt, apparently liked Megzam’s phrasing and laughed loudly in his high-pitched voice.

And then, while laughing, he started talking about his terrifying plan!

“Ah… to get back Partner’s ‘other masterpiece’, right?”

Engee screamed in his high-pitched voice, which only Megzam could hear.

‘Becoming a transcendent being’.

That is the true goal of this ‘World’s Weakest Calamity’, the Great Evil Spirit, Engee Albitt!

But Megzam has heard this plan countless times.

So, with slight irritation, he said.

“You talk too much.”

And with just those words, he cut off Engee’s long speech.

His hands were trembling slightly.

Megzam just wants to kill people with this aerial fortress, ‘Soul Conqueror’, as soon as possible.

He wants to devour souls, quickly.

After escaping from that underground ruin, he used the magic sword ‘Soul Devourer’ to kill many people and devour their souls.

Merchants he encountered on the road, villagers living peacefully, adventurers with the flame of justice burning in their hearts, and even his former colleagues who didn’t know their place.

He was completely addicted to the pleasure he felt every time he devoured a soul.

He’s now so dependent on killing… soul-eating… that he’d try to kill anyone he sees if Engee wasn’t there to stop him.

As soon as Engee said that.

The floor in front of Megzam opened silently… and a panel with various colored buttons, blue, red, green, etc., rose up.

It’s a control panel!

“…………”

Megzam is starving for souls.

With bloodshot eyes, without any hesitation, he pressed the blue round button, as he was told.

Click.

A pleasant, clicky feel.

But.

“…………”

Nothing happened.

“HEEEEEEEYYYY! ENGEEE, YOUUU BASTAAAAARD! NOTHING’S HAPPENINGGGG!!!”

Megzam, enraged by that alone, stomped his feet on the floor while sitting on the throne, and screamed!

But the Great Evil Spirit was unfazed by his anger.

Laughing nonchalantly, he popped up a screen on the display.

It’s some kind of diagram showing the aerial fortress, ‘Soul Conqueror’.

And from that diagram… a red circle, generated from ‘Soul Conqueror’ as its center, was gradually expanding outwards, the process displayed in real-time.

“【Soul Absorption Barrier】, you say?”

Megzam glared at the diagram with bloodshot eyes.

“That’s why! You talk! TOO MUCHHHH!!!”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Megzam, spitting, stomped his feet on the floor, cutting off Engee’s self-praise.

Engee loves himself.

If you let him brag, he’ll never stop.

Engee, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice from Megzam’s anger, instructed him on the next operation.

Click. When he pressed the designated button, what popped up on the display next was a vertical red bar-like display.

Next to the bar was a number, starting from 0, and as the red bar extended upwards, the number kept increasing.

“Ooooh…!”

Megzam, his heart pounding, stared at the red bar that continued to extend upwards, his eyes bloodshot.

He couldn’t wait.

He wants to fire that 【Red something】 at the royal capital!

Megzam is currently burning with the desire to kill.

So he can’t wait… he really can’t wait!

After saying that, Engee’s presence near Megzam suddenly faded.

And then.

Engee’s laugh echoed throughout the Ashgo Kingdom’s royal capital!
