I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle

#320 - Poem of Reluctance

Accompanied by Huntelaar's chewing, the Siege Beast demon relic was devoured like a meat patty.

First, the flesh and blood of its front legs and chest suddenly disappeared, leaving a row of huge teeth marks at the openings, followed by the front half of its body, and finally the wheels and bell-shaped buttocks…

The Siege Beast was eaten by Huntelaar.

He himself also became strange and inexplicable.

Different from the Siege Beast's elephant trunk, Huntelaar's mouth drooped from his face to his chest, pushed to the right by the wheels protruding from his sternum, and his fists were each covered with a small bell, his fingers tightened inside.

What remained unchanged was his gaze fixed on his prey.

“Clang!”

Huntelaar clashed his fists, time reversed, and the swarm of flies instantly shrunk back into the bag covered with bone spurs.

Beelzebub, who had just been transferred into the fish-scale Oogie Boogie body, was also pulled back into the bone-spur Oogie Boogie body.

Huntelaar became the only person moving forward in time in the battle circle, and taking advantage of this short period, he opened his arms and hugged the bone-spur Oogie Boogie's body.

“Buzz—”

The wheel-shaped sternum rotated at high speed, forcibly cutting the bone-spur Oogie Boogie in half, and the swarm of flies that had just been sucked back into the body was also thrown away like scattered sand.

Huntelaar's mouth aimed at the empty space inside Oogie Boogie's body, just in time to wait for Beelzebub's head, face, and breath to appear there.

The timing was seamless.

The wheel-shaped sternum was shot out, cutting Beelzebub in half as well, without even giving him time to twitch or wail.

Huntelaar's dropped mouth opened wide, spewing out a waterfall of blood and flesh, and then completely smashed Beelzebub.

Beelzebub was dead.

First, he was forced by Li Yue's petrification ray to break out of his cocoon prematurely, then he was attacked by Jesse with the Kingston family's sacred object, and finally, he was killed by Huntelaar, the strongest hunter of the Hunting Country, who devoured the Siege Beast…

If Beelzebub's life from birth to death were written as a ballad, each verse would be filled with unwillingness.

And this unwillingness will exist in the world in a new form.

The magic of transforming demons into materials had not been eliminated, so after Beelzebub died in the blood waterfall, he left behind an egg pod, which fell into Huntelaar's bag.

【Unique prey… obtained!】

Huntelaar suddenly tightened the “Attention” card, thinking that this would allow him to escape Li Yue's gaze.

“Buzz—”

The buzzing sound did not come from any flies, but from Oogie Boogie.

“My baby! My Beelzebub!” The four bags cried with their heads in their hands, grasping Huntelaar's limbs and tearing them off with force!

Both hands and the left leg were broken, Huntelaar only had one leg left, which was thrown into the sky by the fish-scale Oogie Boogie, but he still smiled, as if he was enjoying it very much.

With Beelzebub dead, the swarm of flies was dying rapidly, and the magic summoning Oogie Boogie also began to dissipate.

Huntelaar seemed to have foreseen this situation, sneering as he watched Oogie Boogie gradually wither.

At the same time, Oogie Boogie's movement control began to be difficult, and the bags of the eight-legged Oogie Boogie also quickly became deflated.

“Damn brave man!” The three Oogie Boogies moved again, tearing apart Huntelaar's body!

However, Huntelaar's head and neck were still firmly attached to his chest, and were not torn off by Oogie Boogie's brute force.

“So your ‘baby’ is so nutritious, very good…” Huntelaar swayed his head and upper body, slipping from Oogie Boogie's deflated hands.

Having obtained the egg pod, Huntelaar's endurance was raised to a new level.

With only two Oogie Boogies left, this king of the arena also realized that there were not many chances left to strike, and decisively shed the bodies of the two bags, turning into thousands of red flies flashing with red light, and drilled into Huntelaar's body from the damaged parts of his body!

【Explode… brain…】

Since splitting the body could not kill Huntelaar, Oogie Boogie chose to explode directly from the inside.

“Hahaha, it's so itchy!” Huntelaar responded with a loud laugh, and dense swarms of flies crawled out of his eye sockets.

“It's useless now, I have your egg pod, your swarm of flies can no longer harm me… In other words, I am half of you!”

The red flies were expelled from Huntelaar's body, and condensed into Oogie Boogie's face in mid-air.

“Wait! You are… Huntelaar? You are from the Hunting Country! I entrusted you…” After entering and exiting Huntelaar's brain, the red flies finally realized the identity of this group of brave men.

Having fought to this point, Li Yue did not feel that there was any need to use the Scepter of Deception.

“So what? I know you entrusted me to come to Demon King City.” Huntelaar's words were shocking, as he had already seen through the relationship between the Kingston family and the king of the arena.

“But… so what then?” Huntelaar grinned, “Your baby is the only prey I need, so I can only hunt.”

“For the sake of buzzing… you dare to kill…” The magic remaining in Oogie Boogie rapidly weakened, and the swarm of flies could not even say a complete sentence.

“But don't worry, your commission… I will continue to complete it, hehe.” Huntelaar winked at Oogie Boogie, “After all, the Gamble family pays a lot.”

“Rest in peace.”

“You better escape… escape far…”

Before he could finish speaking, Oogie Boogie's face finally exploded,震死了几位光膀子的骑士.

Seeing this, Li Yue felt very comfortable.

Huntelaar slammed his head on the ground, and half of his body bounced up from the ground, stood firm, and laughed loudly.

“Able to be immune to the swarm of flies of the king of the arena, and also has a regenerative effect… In that case, I can't bear to use this ‘unique prey’ for the promotion ceremony…”

Thinking that he was already hated by Oogie Boogie, and might be hunted by the king of the arena in the future, Huntelaar had some new ideas.

“Maybe I can do this, collect a few more unique prey, and see which one is more suitable as a sacrifice for the promotion ceremony? Devour the rest…” Maggots and flies grew from Huntelaar's severed limbs.

They echoed each other, connecting the severed body together and reassembling the limbs.

“The library also has unique prey…” The current Huntelaar was more like a demon.

“Since I'm here, I have to rob enough.” Huntelaar stood up and began to vomit, vomiting out a Siege Beast corpse covered with insect eggs.

The structure of the corpse was still the same as the original demon relic, but it was completely lifeless, and the elephant trunk was also connected to its own insect egg-covered chest cavity, making the whole thing very twisted.

After vomiting out the Siege Beast, Huntelaar barely returned to human form.

At the same time, the swarm of flies belonging to Oogie Boogie died out, and its remaining four bags were bound together, and together with the corpses of the flies, they condensed into a candlestick and were embedded in the earth wall at the bottom of the large hollow.

Candlestick? Li Yue was stunned.

This candlestick… was so similar to the one in the Throne Room? Did it represent the authority of the arena?

The flame of the candlestick was very weak, as if it came from another space—Li Yue could see its projection through the Aberrant Eyes, but in reality, he could not sense its existence.

The brave men present were the same.

Huntelaar was also fully alert when he saw the candlestick, blood tears flowed from his eyes, and flies crawled out of every hole in his body.

But the candlestick was quietly embedded in the wall, burning quietly.

“Oh? This is…” Huntelaar did not expect that there would be new anomalies, looked at the candlelight, and pondered something.

While pondering, Huntelaar discovered that the large hollow was collapsing.

Of course, Li Yue did it.

Li Yue determined that Oogie Boogie had left, and saw that the brave men's attention was all attracted by the candlestick, and Huntelaar shed blood tears, and immediately did not wait any longer.

If he didn't kill them now, was he waiting for them to come back to their senses?

As the binding thread snapped, a layer of gravel fell, Li Yue drove countless Aberrant Eyes, watching the brave men's array near the candlestick, and shot out petrification rays…

And the brave men only saw that the entire large hollow shed a layer of stone skin, and the walls and ceiling were covered with dense Aberrant Eyes, each of which seemed to have spirituality, turning and casting countless gazes.
