The Vow of Vengeance Is Carried Out
"Then, it is finally time to fulfill the contract."
William lifted his head at Jae-hyun's words.
"Krruh..."
He still had not fully set aside the pain. The torment of having his flesh nibbled away bit by bit by the ants—and especially the violation of his testicles—had left him in agony that had barely subsided.
The testicles were the most fatal area for torture. In his world, the Chilean security forces had even dubbed them the "pouches of truth."
Having also endured the agony of having his teeth forcibly extracted alive, William felt pain that bordered on madness. A strong mind could blunt it somewhat by blacking out or numbing the senses, but William's unyielding spirit ensured that no matter how much he suffered, his mind remained clear. He could not faint, nor could his thoughts blur from the perfect transmission of pain.
"Then bring them."
From within the barrier, Jae-hyun issued the command. A black hole materialized in the air, and humans began to tumble from it.
"Waaah!"
"Aaaah!"
The humans who fell were eight in number, each bearing faces all too familiar to William.
They were his son, his daughter-in-law, his grandson, his grandson's wife, his granddaughter, his granddaughter's husband, his great-granddaughter, and his great-grandson—the last being the son of his granddaughter. How could they not feel shock?
The eight humans crashed to the floor, then slowly regained their senses and began to rise one by one.
"Ugh!"
"Ah, where is this?"
"Where...?"
Once conscious, they scanned their surroundings and spotted the blood-soaked, fallen William on the floor. They also noticed the handsome young man and beautiful young woman standing with arms crossed.
They were immediately recognized: the red-eyed youth with his noble, aristocratic features and flawless black hair—Kim Jae-hyun, the summoned hero—and the exquisite girl with flowing golden hair and otherworldly beauty, blue eyes gleaming like the skies—Irene, the Flash Magic Swordswoman.
William's family had all met them before. It was Jae-hyun who had rescued them from the demonic assault. Yet they had been told by William himself that Jae-hyun had betrayed humanity and become the Demon King. Of course, they had also heard about the vile betrayals they themselves had committed, and they felt a pang of guilt for the life Jae-hyun had saved. But they were selfish.
Without Jae-hyun, they had easily seized the Gallia Kingdom with Ferdinand's support, enjoyed the power of the Rodriguez ducal house for ten years, and never blamed William. They only regretted that they had not finished the task of killing Jae-hyun.
Especially William's son. He already held the title of count and had never relinquished the authority that came with it, even without inheriting the ducal house. He had no intention of losing his position.
And when they learned that Jae-hyun had become the Demon King, they were furious. The nobles had never been commoners, yet they now acted as if they could not think like frogs. Having lived as the highest nobles in a kingdom, they had grown arrogant, convinced that even commoners were beneath them.
They were grateful that Jae-hyun had saved their lives, but they now believed that the lowly who had done so must be worthy of glory.
William's great-granddaughter Sophia felt no differently.
Privileged from birth and raised in the upper echelons of power, she had been taught that only those of royal or noble blood were special, while everyone else was treated as lesser than a pet dog or cat.
"It has been a long time."
Jae-hyun greeted the family lightly.
"Is this the hero's doing?"
The son of the count—William's own son—pointed at his fallen father and asked the question. He had mustered courage to speak, yet Jae-hyun could see the useless pride within him.
"You are a noble. You will never grovel before a commoner."
"No. That was not me."
Jae-hyun answered proudly. Of course it was not. The ants he had summoned were the ones who had acted.
William's son—the count—stared at Jae-hyun in astonishment.
"Then... who did this?!"
"The ants I summoned."
The count's face twisted with mockery. His voice trembled.
"A-are you joking?! How can you be so calm after committing such an act?!"
William watched his son's screams and felt a headache every bit as fierce as the tooth extraction. For ten years, the man had lived with power that rivaled even the king's. Now he had tasted power too late in life, and the fear of the Demon King before him was unknown to him.
His son had reached the Sword Master realm, yet, as William's son, his talent was wasted on laziness. He had also never fought in the war against the Demon Army ten years ago. William had spared him the battlefield, but the son had only suffered from a demonic assassin in the rear, never truly understanding the horrors of war or the atrocities of the Demon Army.
Power had turned him deaf and blind. No one in Gallia dared challenge the Gale Sword Emperor, and the nobles had never tested power's limits. They followed the world's natural path: viewing the hero as merely a convenient tool.
"There's no need to talk further. Kneel. Bow."
Jae-hyun found the pathetic fool daring to threaten him unworthy of words. He exerted pressure, and every family member—William's son included—suddenly dropped to their knees and bowed their heads toward him.
"Ah!"
"What... what is this?!"
Sophia, the great-granddaughter, and Jonathan, the grandson's son, fell into the involuntary posture of kneeling and bowing. The same happened to the son-in-law and daughter-in-law, and to the grandson and granddaughter.
"William. Rise. The time has come to fulfill the contract."
"C-contract?! Impossible?!"
William's face twisted in horror. He recalled the price he must pay to escape his suffering. Was he about to kill his own family with his own hands?
"You monster! You have truly become a demon!"
William screamed at Jae-hyun, seeing it as an insult. But Jae-hyun was already a pure demon, his human blood long purged. The same was true of Irene.
Calling a true demon a demon carried no mockery—only laughter. It was the same as a human calling a human human.
"Indeed, I am a demon. What exactly were you hoping to receive after turning me into the Demon King? Trash."
Jae-hyun sneered, and Irene lightly tapped his shoulder.
"Jae-hyun oppa, enough. Let's start quickly. I want to see it."
"Very well."
At Irene's urging, Jae-hyun gazed at her with affection and planted a soft kiss on her cheek. Watching her smile blossom happily, he turned back to William with a cruel grin and issued his final command.
"I command you. Rape your great-granddaughter. And while doing so, tear off the limbs of your son."
The moment Jae-hyun spoke, every wound on William vanished. His body rose against his will, obeying the contract.
"Kryaaaaak! Kim Jae-hyun!!! You damned Demon King! I curse you! I will avenge you! Even in death, I will reincarnate and exact revenge!"
"There is no need to worry about dying. Reincarnation will never come."
Jae-hyun watched William's fury and laughed. As he expected, humans of this world—especially men—loved to blame others.
"Kyaaah! Nooo! Great-grandfather! Please don't! Aaaah!"
Sophia wore a fine dress as the noble-born girl she was. With her gray hair—proof of her royal blood—and her mother's inherited green eyes, she was a beautiful girl of flawless beauty.
The dress was ripped apart by William's hands, her undergarments torn away in an instant. He lifted her hips into the kneeling bow, forcing her into the posture of a bitch in heat. Then, burying his face between her buttocks, he licked her virgin folds and anus alternately. Sophia's moans escaped her lips at once under the skilled tongue.
"Hoot... ahh... no... I hate it... save me... who will save me?!"
Raised in luxury, Sophia summoned servants whenever she needed help. Now, no one would come. No one could reach them inside the Demon King's barrier.
"I never imagined that little girl I saved would grow up enough to have intercourse with her great-grandfather. The world really does last longer than I thought."
Jae-hyun spoke with genuine amusement, clearly baiting William further to fuel his rage. William could not resist; the contract bound him.
"I never swore loyalty to the Demon Army, but I made a contract with you, the Demon King. By stopping the torment, I must obey your orders."
Soon William's penis was out, thrusting toward his great-granddaughter's untouched virgin slit. It penetrated deep, and Sophia screamed in agony as her body was forcibly claimed.
"Aaaah!!!"
Being born noble made her suffering unbearable. Yet Jae-hyun cared not a whit. What mattered was William's pain.
William, having taken his great-granddaughter's virginity, screamed at Jae-hyun.
"You won't last long either! You will be finished!"
"Huhu. Do you believe in what Ferdinand and Griffith are preparing?"
Jae-hyun answered with a knowing smile, for he already knew everything.
William's face hardened.
"Wh-what?!"
"Why did you think I wouldn't know? From the beginning, Ferdinand and Griffith have been under constant surveillance by me. How could I not know? Their plots."
Jae-hyun continued with a cold laugh.
"The plan to summon the hero recorded on the ancient tablets—I already knew."
