----------------------------------
One of the reasons Rebecca doesn't trust Elisha...
EP.53 I fell in love with a hero
A brave man who asks someone to be his lover.
The moment she saw it, Elisha was caught in a momentary dazed mood and could not think of anything.
'What… Sweetheart?... Me... Really?... Really this vain?'
It was a short sentence, but
It was enough to shatter people's minds like crazy magic bombardments.
It feels like raw breasts are cut out and the heart is pulled out.
The excruciating pain felt unbearable even for Elisha, who had gone through so many hurdles to death.
With such an upset stomach, Elisha's heart began to scream like crazy.
'..no… '
A single word popped into her mind in a whirlwind of intense emotions.
At this moment, she began to feel terrible about everything around her.
The figure of the warrior in front of my eyes.
Anyone who is confessing to him.
This place where they stand too.
and,
Amid the intense rejection that started to bloom so suddenly,
Elisha had a choice.
That's right...
*
A shocking word that flies like an arrow from a distance.
Hearing this, Rebecca began to be seized with deep embarrassment.
'this… what is this... So... I really hope that the captain is now... '
A word that clearly echoed in her ears.
A figure of a warrior making a request to someone to be his 'lover'.
At this, Rebecca was engulfed in deep shock for a moment, and tried to find out who the woman was receiving the hero's confession.
at that time…
"!? Ah... well... wait... "
In the next moment, Rebecca is being dragged somewhere while holding her tight in Elisa's hand.
To be honest, she wanted to take a closer look at the situation of the hero rather than being dragged by Elisha like this.
However, due to the sudden and strong pull, and at the same time due to the fact that the subject is Elisa and not someone else,
Rebecca had no choice but to leave with Elisha as if to run away without any resistance to this.
And after a while.
Immediately after arriving in a dark alley far away from where the hero is.
Elisha barely stopped walking, and Rebecca was finally able to stand still.
"Ugh… Ugh… I.. there.. go..why are you doing this all of a sudden?"
Unlike Elisa, who stood there casually, Rebecca gasped for breath.
Rebecca asked her a question with questions, confusion, and a little bit of fear.
Regarding this, Elisha remained silent for a moment and did not say anything.
Seeing her back like this, Rebecca barely caught her breath and slowly began to look at the figure of the Four Heavenly Kings of the SS in front of her.
at that time…
"… you also… saw?"
"yes?"
"Just that scene… Did you see it too?"
Elisha asked a question in a deep, subdued voice.
There was a feeling in her question as if she wanted to deny the scene she had just seen with all her might.
And, in response to her question,
Rebecca felt a slight twitch, and answered as carefully as she could.
"That… so… you're talking about the scene where the captain makes a confession to someone… are you?"
"ね!..."
Rebecca's words mixed with deep anxiety.
and,
As if answering this question, a short but intense sound came out of Elisha's mouth.
And right after...
"Hey!"
A creepy sensation brushing past Rebecca's spine.
At this moment, in her eyes, the figure of Elisa, radiating a ferocious expression that could be seen with the naked eye, began to come into her eyes.
"why… Why is it like this... this… doggish… "
With her head bowed, Elisa muttered in a creepy voice.
It looked like a wild beast that lost its prey in front of their eyes and disassembled it.
A sensation reminiscent of a beast that is about to rage and rage at any moment.
So, seeing Elisa starting to arouse the fear Rebecca had for her from the past,
Even though Rebecca knew it wasn't her, she was automatically captured by a feeling of constriction in her heart.
'Ah.. no... dae... why the hell are you doing this all of a sudden? Why did Elisha have such an attitude about what the captain had just confessed? ?!
That time when Rebecca felt deep injustice and doubts about the situation that she had to be caught in such a terrible fear all of a sudden even though there was nothing wrong.
All of a sudden, in her mind, a reliable interpretation of the current situation began to take place as quickly as a puzzle.
'ruler… Wait a moment… May this be... ?'
It is a picture that is difficult to accept even if you think about it yourself.
However, Rebecca had no choice but to admit one fact that clearly touched her through this terrifying sensation she was still feeling through her skin.
that…
'west… Maybe... G.. Really... as? Really, Elisha... . Captain?'
The hero confessed to someone unknown, and immediately after recognizing it, Elisha was bursting with anger like this.
It means only one thing.
Elisha has a crush on the hero... Perhaps it was the fact that she might have feelings of the opposite sex.
'No, no... No matter how much it is, this monster-like Elisa-sama can't do something like that against the captain... '
Elisa is one of the worst personalities Rebecca knows.
It was still unbelievable that she had such feelings toward the hero, but other than that, there was no way to explain this situation.
and crucially,
The scene where Rebecca's eyes began to appear now that the slicing storm of anger passed faster than expected.
That's right.
"Black… ugh... "
"ah… "
Elisha begins to shed tears filled with despair after anger.
At this moment, she was crying without even realizing that Rebecca was still behind her.
And looking at her like this.
Rebecca's conjecture, which was thought to be simply an absurd misunderstanding, began to turn out to be a truth that cannot be subtracted or beaten as it is.
'T... no doubt... This is obviously… It's love! I don't know exactly when... Elisha-sama must have always loved the captain!'
Rebecca, who was afraid of Elisa, found out what she didn't really want to know.
So Rebecca thought about how she should act here, and then carried it out.
"I… there… Fine… Uh ten..?"
Carefully, with a face full of heartbreak, Rebecca hands a handkerchief to Elisa in front of her.
"… black... uhhhh... Go, thank you, wow."
Elisha then began to carefully wipe her tears with a handkerchief.
It seems that the ugly appearance of a while ago was a lie,
To her now, only the pitiful appearance of the girl who had been broken in was being seen.
And Elisha's appearance...
Seeing how cute it feels in a way,
Rebecca felt really subtle, and asked the question carefully.
"I… Elisa? Elisha is... I like the boss... Were you doing it?"
"… eww… yes?"
In response to Rebecca's question, Elisa started looking at her with her eyes wide open.
Thinking how cute she looked like this, Rebecca went on and on.
"That… that… Judging by this reaction now, I can't think of anything other than that. The fact that the captain is so sad after seeing the confession means that Elisha also liked the captain… "
"radish… What are you talking about! that… It can't be. No matter how many friends I become, the hero is truly human! There's no way someone with a noble bloodline like me would fall in love with such a lowly guy!"
Elisha raised her voice with a red-hot face at Rebecca's words.
However, her...
Regarding the reaction that anyone could tell it was a lie, Rebecca spoke firmly, forgetting her usual fears.
"Even if you say so… Do you like it?"
"article… I don't like it! This... this is just a yearning... that… okay! It's just a feeling of longing. Such a pure desire to be with such a strong and wonderful warrior forever... "
"You know that people say they like things like that, right? Isn't it?"
"Ugh… "
Rebecca actually puts a wedge in Elisha's words, who are trying to make excuses anyway.
To this, Elisha could not respond any more and was left speechless.
And the brief but long silence that followed.
in it...
Rebecca's face automatically began to turn pale in a moment of fear that she had just gone too far with emotion.
'This... this... Without realizing it, I got a little excited and pushed the situation too far. this… Isn't this a little too dangerous?'
Rebecca begins to tremble while obsessed with the thought that she may have stepped on an irreversible mine.
And after a while.
Seeing her like that, Elisa spoke with a trembling voice.
"… okay… your words... right."
He spoke with sincerity.
"I like you… I... love a warrior... "
Elisha's confession is full of emotions that can be called heavy sorrow and despair.
Then she asked Rebecca, looking desperate like a girl asking for help.
"I… there…
Then I... What should I do now? How do you like it? The person I like confesses to another woman
it's over At times like this... What should I do? that person... Can I just kill the woman who gets in my way? that... then
Will?"
As the words burst out, Elisa's eyes began to quickly turn into madness from a certain moment.
Seeing this, Rebecca began to feel instinctively that if she did not manage the situation well here, something really terrible would happen.
EP.54 I'll definitely find it and bury it...
Elisha radiating confusion and madness right in front of her eyes.
Seeing her as if she was about to commit murder,
Rebecca shook her head to the best of her ability and began to come up with the answers she felt deserved.
"I… there
So… First of all, calm down a little. Melissa, of course, the captain said something similar to a confession a while ago, but we
You don't know at all. Who he is right now and whether he has actually accepted the confession since then."
"!.... that… that… Yes, though... "
Rebecca speaks in her own way while speaking in a trembling voice.
At this, Elisha began to calm down her emotions a little, and while seeing her like that, Rebecca continued to talk to calm her down as much as possible.
"uh… perhaps
It may be a simple misunderstanding, and even if it is not, the correct answer is to know who the other person is and then take action.
maybe? In a situation where the strategic goal is also ambiguous, it is not good to go out of the way."
"Ummm… "
As she listened to Rebecca's young but shrewd story, Elisha was beginning to realize that she had definitely been overexcited.
As she said, about the previous situation, she needed to know the circumstances as clearly as possible first, as she did not have enough information.
'Like Rebecca said, first we need to find out what happened. Whether the hero really confessed, whether the other person accepted it, and… If he accepted, who the hell is that bitch... '
There were a few people that immediately came to Elisha's head.
Based on the circumstances so far, the woman in question has either captured Elisha's heart while he was away from the hero as the Demon King's majesty's bodyguard for a while, or
Or, it is highly probable that a kite was created in the process of enjoying the follow-up after the war and a small commemorative event together.
And, among those who came into contact with the hero in this background, there were quite a few female demons with excellent looks.
From the bottom soldiers to the high-ranking demons,
The spectrum was very diverse, including corps commanders and other members of the SS who had a command similar to hers.
'At first glance, it seemed that he was a little tall, but... To be honest, I couldn't check it because I was so busy.'
If he had known exactly his appearance, at least, he would have been able to recognize who the bitch was at once without having to identify or need to identify anyone.
However, in relation to this, no matter how much she thought about it, there was no element that could be called a special one, and in the end, she failed to find something useful while grunting.
'Shh... I should have checked who the other person was first without getting excited. The faucet turned without realizing it, and I missed those important points... '
For a moment, I thought of going back and checking who the other person was, but in time, it was highly likely that the two had already left.
As a result of being swayed by emotions and acting rashly, Elisa starts regretting her actions only by missing important information.
Of course, sooner or later, if a hero starts dating openly, he or she can instantly find out who that person is, but that's probably not the case.
It is very common here in the Demon Kingdom that a couple secretly fall in love and develop affection.
In the worst case, the day you hear about the relationship could be the wedding day of two people.
Elisha began to intuit the fact that it would certainly take some difficult effort to know the hero's confession partner.
But,
no matter who the opponent is,
No matter how many times a young lady from a great family has captured the hero's heart.
It was clear that Elisha had no intention of backing down in the slightest.
Elisa is a member of one of the most prestigious families in the Demon Kingdom.
mother right now
Elias sat in the position of the commander of the corps, and as she herself is in charge of the bodyguard, she is in a position to be deceived by anyone else.
He knew very well that he never existed.
And with this self-confidence in the background,
Elisha began to point at the mysterious stray cat the emotion of rage that was still flowing like lava in her chest, if not as much as before.
'I don't know if it's a big year, but I have no intention of losing a hero, so be prepared. I'll definitely find it and bury you in four years.'
I don't know if it's a country like an empire or a magic country,
In the case of the Demon Kingdom, in principle, it is forbidden to have concubines.
This was partly because of the historically high proportion of female monarchs,
It was a situation in which it had become a tradition for those in power to maintain chastity on that side as well.
The principle is that there is no choice but to have one wife next to each person.
Anything else is considered adultery and considered a sin, so the concept of sharing love could not exist.
Winner take-out.
In other words, it could be said that the love of the Demon Kingdom is for the victor to have everything intact.
And, in that respect...
From now on, Elisha began to feel that she had entered a war from which she could not back down.
In the war to win this 'love' that she experienced for the first time.
Meanwhile,
Like that, seeing Elisha who made it clear that she was still sharpening her sword even though she had stopped her rampage once in a while,
Rebecca began to let out a sigh of deep concern and relief in her heart as she began to sense that although the fire had been extinguished immediately, there was still a lingering danger.
'What… Judging by the atmosphere, things like this will happen after that, but I don't think I need to worry about that part. Anyway, this won't cause any problems right away... '
They didn't have much contact in the first place, and it happened today as well, just by chance.
To that extent, judging that her role in the political battle over this hero was just this far, Rebecca began to slowly withdraw her feet.
"I… that… Then I'll just go. I hope that Elisha's love will come true."
With those words, Rebecca carefully turned around and began to go her own way.
at that time.
"for a moment."
"you… yes?"
Elisa suddenly summons her.
Rebecca felt goosebumps all over her body at the sound of her voice that seemed to contain a cold chill, and she had no choice but to stand still.
and,
Towards such a Rebecca.
Elisa spoke to her in a voice that seemed to contain a cold chill.
"Yes, you. You know where I shouldn't go and talk about what happened today, right?"
"ah… you… Yes. radish… of course… That's it."
Feeling a convulsive sensation on her face, Rebecca replied with a forced smile.
and… Looking at her like that, Elisa showed her cold expression on her lips and said,
"Yeah, please do that. I don't know what I'll do to you if that fact counts."
"radish… Of course it is! I... never! I will take this secret to the grave!"
Elisha smiles brightly at Rebecca's words.
Fearful of the chill that was contained within, Rebecca began to think that she wanted to get out of this place as soon as possible.
By the way.
"ah… and."
"?"
"I'm sorry, but if it's okay, can we talk more often in the future? After all, you are a warrior's lieutenant. It won't be easy to know the news."
"!!?!"
"I'll ask you a favor. Are you okay though?"
Elisa asks Rebecca for a favor with a smile.
However, from the position of being very well aware of the meaning of 'threat' in that smile, Rebecca was aware that she had no choice in the first place.
"you… Yes. radish… of course. How can I dare to refuse Elisha-sama's request?"
"Huhuh… yes, thank you very much. If things go well later, I'll make sure to repay you one way or another. Then I will call you later."
After saying those words, Elisha disappears into the darkness leaving Rebecca as it is.
Immediately after the source of the fear that had gripped her heart all this time disappeared,
Rebecca felt as if the blades were moving back and forth in front of her neck, and she sat down.
"under… Fuck... "
Short swear words that came out of her mouth automatically.
Then Rebecca, holding her face as it was, began to lament over this wretched hand she was facing.
"no… Why the hell do you keep getting caught up in shit like this these days? I just wanted to get into a career with a good connection, but what the hell is this guy's life... . yes?"
At that moment, a thought suddenly began to pop into her mind.
Regarding this, Rebecca, who was feeling only despair, suddenly began to think that the current situation was not just a bad thing.
'Wait a moment…
Although it's a political battle, isn't this really what it is?
thing… They said that if you do a good job here, you will be rewarded... '
In my opinion, it was a situation in which I could say that I had a 'connection' that I had always wanted as a member of society.
Of course, there was something soggy in the background of a political battle, but compared to the bloody political boards and battlefields, he was a yangban in many ways.
'okay… let's think good This, too, is a path to success. Hopefully I can get what I want here, right?'
After all, it would be impossible to get out of here in good spirits, as long as it was taken by that terrifying Elisa.
So, feeling a little bit of lust, Rebecca made up her mind to do this and that for Elisha in the future.
Of course, apart from this fact, there was still a deep feeling of fear for Elisha in her heart,
In fact, the main driving force that moved her was the emotion of fear.
EP.55 Quick Stop Loss
"Ummm… "
"Hmmmm.."
Two groups of people sitting facing each other and showing openly uncomfortable signs.
At this moment, there was a clear expression on their faces that they were dissatisfied with the current situation, but nonetheless, no one spoke these feelings openly.
Achilles Decliment, representative of the Falcon Empire,
Scipio Afnus, the representative of the Elven Kingdom.
At this moment, the two men and their subordinates, who were seated here from the position of representing each country, maintained a heavy silence in this awkward and chilly atmosphere for a while.
'I'm sure I could really educate those arrogant elves at this opportunity... '
'We, noble elves who obey the will of God, have to bow down to such a human being... '
Just a few days ago, the two were sharpening their blades with the intention of plucking each other's hair.
However, at this point, they were in a situation where they had no choice but to have a conversation while inserting the sharply sharpened knife for a while.
The Allied Forces of Tribes faced an unprecedented defeat in history, in which 40,000 main forces were annihilated and more than 70% of the occupied territories were blown away in an instant.
In just a few weeks, before preparations could be made to repair the damage at Rob, the damage they inflicted was devastating.
Due to this war, they lost all large territories such as Galatia, Timothy, Ephesus, and Bilibus, starting from Antioch, and even the size of their troops was greatly reduced.
It could be said that the worst crisis had literally come in the worst case, when the results of the war over the past several years were wiped out in an instant.
In this regard, the Falcon Empire and the Elf Kingdom, which had split into two sides, had no choice but to resume dialogue in a hurry like this.
Yes, but since they had already shown their blades towards each other, there was no longer any ties of the past between them.
There is simply an 'enemy' who proceeds with negotiations depending on the circumstances.
In a situation where the battle for the flag continues for a while,
The one who spoke first was the Elf Kingdom, which was at a disadvantage in terms of geographical and national power.
"Well then, let's start talking. Since we've come all the way here, isn't it the right answer to solve the problem quickly?"
"…I do. Well, you probably know how things are going anyway. Let's get the hang of it and start talking about it."
Achilles responds in a calm voice to Scipio's words,
At this moment, they knew well that they had to put out the most urgent fire first, even if they had to fight again in the future.
Due to the defeat in the previous battle, the Tribal Allied Forces are in a state where even their existence is in jeopardy.
Although not all occupied territories were lost, they suffered so severe defeat that it was almost impossible for them to maintain their own fronts any longer.
And in this situation,
In fact, the Falcon Empire and the Elf Kingdom, the biggest investors in this war, had to make a quick decision to prevent further damage.
Will the home country provide extensive support to rectify the situation and continue the war?
Otherwise, it is the decision whether to give up the achievements made so far and force the retreat to recover the remaining troops and resources.
'If it was a general case, of course the answer would be the former... It is a very painful loss to lose the landing base you obtained after making countless sacrifices.'
'If it were normal, the Holy Father would have chosen to continue the war. Because the price of the blood our elves have paid so far has been too great.'
From a war point of view, from a strategic standpoint, the value of an amphibious base is very large, so it was right to provide at least a level of support to protect the occupied territory, even if it was not necessary to resume a large-scale invasion.
But at this moment, the two owners, the emperor and the pope, had already decided on the answer.
"Don't retreat."
"I agree. I will immediately launch the ship and return the troops from the Demon King's territory."
A declaration by the representatives of the two countries that they would give up all the achievements they had made over the years.
At first glance, this might seem like a foolish choice.
The damage caused by one failure is great, but it would be foolish to turn everything to nothing.
But…
At this moment they knew.
What is urgent now is not the Demon Kingdom, which has been devastated by years of war and has to focus on internal affairs for a while.
The fact that he is the 'enemy' in front of his eyes at this moment.
'Anyway, the country that has suffered the most from the war so far is the Demon Kingdom. They can't afford to leave their territory for a while and decorate something.'
'As a result of forming a tribal union and beating them, the Demon Kingdom is no longer the power it used to be. Besides, as long as they've made them into real axes of evil, they can't become a threat to us.'
In the first place, the main reason they drove the demon kingdom and demons into the power of evil and formed a tribal union was to turn their discontent to the outside.
In order to correct the people's atrocities caused by the successive famines, diseases, and corruption of the nobility, they proclaimed the so-called temple, which they have continued to this day.
However, in the present situation, when the domestic situation has stabilized and national power has been put on a normal track again, the need for it has been relatively reduced.
In a situation where there was no longer a need to continue the war from a political standpoint, damage occurred.
In this situation,
What they needed was a quick stop loss, not a clumsy water ride.
and.
decisively,
Now, in front of them, a bigger, more powerful and real danger was standing in front of them, not the Demon Kingdom, which became weak and could not become a danger.
'If the war continues here and we try to send reinforcements, there's no way these elves won't take advantage of this opportunity... '
'Now, in front of us is a real enemy called the Falcon Empire, not an illusion of the Demon Kingdom. The moment they withdraw their troops, saying they are sending reinforcements, they will definitely launch a large-scale offensive.'
The two factions have already decided to draw swords at each other.
In particular, in the case of the Emperor of the Falcon Empire, it was a situation in which he decided to erase the Elven Kingdom, which had long been a rival, on this occasion.
With a large-scale war looming right in front of us, there was no longer any reason to bear losses by being associated with a material that had exhausted its usefulness, such as a tribal union.
"Then, since we have already received the permission from the Magic Kingdom and the Beast Kingdom, let's proceed immediately."
"It's a sympathy. Let's send the soldiers who have suffered so far back to their families as soon as possible."
With that in mind, with the blade pointed at the opponent,
Achilles and Scipio shook hands with each other with smiles on their lips.
When I get a chance, I'm sure I'll cut off this child's neck by myself...
*
A few days after things were settled in Antioch.
The 30,000 demon kings stationed there had to make a choice.
"Are you going to wipe out the remaining enemy remnants at this opportunity?"
"It's a sympathy. The morale of your allies is skyrocketing, while your enemies are shrinking as they shrink. I think it is right to use this momentum to wipe out every enemy in this country, leaving no one behind."
Samson and his group insist on continuing the battle with a firm voice.
On the other hand, in this regard, Elias and Belzebeauty were adhering to the position that it was necessary to maintain a little caution.
"Your Majesty, although we have achieved great victories, our soldiers are still very tired due to excessive battles."
"There
Enemies will now be cornered and loaded with poison. In such a case, if you forcefully attack, you will be at a loss. rather
I think it is right to step back for now to induce the enemies to be vigilant and give our allies a break."
"Elias, what does that mean! War is the flow! If you don't get this momentum and get things done, you don't know how things will go in the future!"
"Don't you know that if you get swept away by the flow by mistake, you might end up falling into the bottom of a waterfall?"
Samson and Elias are showing a scene somewhat similar to the one we've seen before.
In this regard, I'm starting to get the feeling that something very undesirable is going to happen again after this...
"Warrior! What do you mean?"
Unfortunately, this ominous feeling did not deviate from my expectations.
"If there is something you want to tell me, please tell me."
'No.. I don't have anything I want to say.'
"Isn't he a hero who has accomplished great achievements in the past? I'm sure you'll have good ideas this time too, so please share."
'No such thing. Don't turn arrows like this.'
Not only Samson, but Elias also comes forward and asks for an answer from me.
At the same time, the demon king also looked at me like that and started to notice that I should say something...
In this regard,
I sighed inwardly and had no choice but to roll my head to come up with the right answer as accurately as possible.
Feeling a lot of pressure on the fact that I have become a person who naturally decides the situation...
"Your Majesty, in my opinion…"
EP.56 There is absolutely no doubt about
the continuation of war and those who argue prudence.
Among them, I began to talk about my conclusions after much deliberation.
"exactly… We know that we are not in a situation where we can easily move the army. After the last few days of forced march, the fatigue of the soldiers has accumulated greatly, and there are many wounded."
"Ummm… "
"Yeah, but… "
Unlike the days of Elias, whom they had
always met, when I spoke to them in this way, who had taken their side the other day, they
began to show that they listened to me with a somewhat flexible attitude. .
Reassured by that fact, I began to carry on with what I had to say.
"The enemy, on the other hand, will be ready to bite the cat at any moment, like a poisoned rat. A clumsy attack in such a case is not a very good choice. only."
"only?"
The demons are starting to show a little curiosity at my next words.
In particular, in the case of Elias, unexpectedly, he began to show the most conspicuous reaction among them.
Although she was opposed to the situation for practical reasons, in fact, it seemed that she was also very regretful about the current situation.
'In that sense, he's a competent person in many ways. Surprisingly, such a thing is not easy.'
So, giving a higher rating than I originally had to her for not only being smart, but also having her patience to judge soberly in this respect,
I automatically looked at her Elias' face and continued to look at her. continued to speak.
"However, it
is still a waste to just give up on this current trend. As it is a long-awaited large-scale victory, our morale is skyrocketing due to this,
while they are greatly reduced and are in a corner. In this situation, I propose a slightly different attack
."
"A different attack?"
"What is it? Come on and tell me."
The demons are starting to show deep expectations for my words in many ways.
To be honest, there were people like Samson who put only courage in this place, but there were also a lot of people who were smarter than me.
However,
in my case, I was originally interested in the modern war history, and in addition to that, I was able to find better means in this field thanks to this and other magazines and haircuts.
In the end, knowledge is something that develops as a result of the passage of time.
As I understand the various tactics used in modern warfare as well as direct combat, there was a very good tool that I could use in this situation.
'Sometimes words are scarier than swords. In this case, that method will work very well.'
*
The hero who is eagerly talking about his plan and the demons who are listening to it.
However, at this moment.
Only one of the demons in this place was concentrating on the person at the end of his gaze, not the words coming out of the warrior's mouth.
'new year… mind?'
At this moment, the figure of the warrior looking straight at Elias and talking happily.
Watching this, she…
Elisha bloomed in her own mind, which forced her to frown automatically at her complex and anxious feelings.
For Elisha, who was concentrating on finding out who the 'lover' the hero had confessed to at present, the hero's every move was of course the main focus of attention.
And from that point of view,
for some reason, the figure of the hero who was looking towards his mother was something that could not be ignored.
'Ah, maybe... Anyway, that wouldn't be it. How can Mama be like that...'
She knows better than anyone in this world, and she can be proud of being her mother, Elias.
Elisa herself thought that, no matter how much she thought about it, that she fell in love with the hero she had always been against.
But…
Even taking that fact into consideration, the look of the hero sending her gaze to her own mother was heartbreaking in many ways.
'Come to think of it… She must have heard somewhere that she became friends while fighting, but... Hopefully really... as?'
As her thoughts go all the way there, more and more complex feelings begin to bloom.
It really won't happen, but... The fact that, depending on her circumstances, her own rival might be her mother, the person she loves most in the world, she was giving her a feeling of confusion in her many ways.
With the anxiety that lingered in her mind, she
thinks that Elisha should do an investigation when she gets the chance, and that she should consult with Rebecca, now her 'colleague'. it started.
She said, 'I never doubted Mama. This is because she believes in Mama to the end, so she's just doing research to confirm this... To make sure she can trust Mama... '
*
Amelda, a paladin of the Elven Kingdom.
Not long ago, she was a member of the Hero Party, but now she has returned to her original position as a paladin.
And at this moment, Amelda, who had just crossed the sea and arrived at the Demon Kingdom again, took out her decree she had brought, and read her teeth to her elf generals and her soldiers before her own eyes. started to give
"Then, I will pass on the orders of the Holy Father."
A proclamation with a clear seal.
With it in her hand, Amelda began to read the text in a calm and loud voice, suppressing the tension in her mind.
"As of this time
, the withdrawal of the Allied Forces of the Tribes located within the Demon Kingdom has been decided, and accordingly, I, the Pope, are ordering all elves within the Demon Kingdom to
return home. All the generals and soldiers should respond to this and return home quickly and devote themselves to the protection of the Elven Kingdom."
"ね… "
"Ha… "
As she finished her declaration, the voices of lamentation were heard everywhere.
That is because, although not explicitly described, the papal bull actually meant a complete failure of the expedition.
The soldiers of the Allied Tribes and the Elf Kingdom, who gave up all the territories they had suffered through hardship, and returned as a de facto remnant.
As they were already aware to some extent that the current situation was the worst, they knew that this choice was inevitable, but nevertheless, they had even a little bit of hope.
A small expectation that a great Pope who follows God's will will not give a good solution even in this crisis.
Compared to other races, they were the most religious, and because they were the elves who had shown the greatest motivation and expectations in this war, this was perhaps natural.
However, the papal bull declaring a simple retreat, not such a great tactic, only disappointed them.
So, the elf soldiers began to disband their belongings with a deep sense of defeat.
In a way, the fact that I could return home was something I didn't even know I was supposed to be happy about.
However, the vast majority of devout believers could only feel in vain that their long-standing efforts had ended in this way.
"I have to step down like this…"
"How can the holy army chosen by God… "
"It was an opportunity to surely root out those demon lords and demons… "
The elf soldiers sighed and moved to pack their bags.
On the other hand,
watching them like this,
Paladin Amelda was in the midst of feeling a deeper sense of pity and guilt than they did.
'It's because of me... If I had definitely helped the hero at that time, I wouldn't have been defeated so miserably... I really could have ended the war the way everyone wanted it to... '
So Amelda is about to return to her barracks with her heavy footsteps, lamenting in her heart.
at that time.
"It is unavoidable. Give up."
"under… But, General! I cannot leave them alone!"
"At least let them know that the order of retreat has been issued! If we leave it like this, we will all die!"
"
Again, this is too risky.
Right now, they don't even know if their allies are still alive, and there is no way for them to escape, even if we tell them the news now that all roads to that place have become the realm of demons. It's unfortunate, but we can't increase the sacrifice any more."
"General!"
"ね… "
Soldiers conversing in desperate voices.
In response, Amelda cautiously approached it and asked them a question.
"Hey... what's going on?"
"Oh, Amelda. That is… "
*
"You mean the soldiers of Galilee?"
"Yes, according to the news,
it is known that about 400 of our elf soldiers are still stationed there, but we cannot be sure of anything right now
. Nevertheless, these guys insisted on telling the news there too... "
"Please. He must be still alive."
"No matter how small the possibility, they are my friends and my friends. If it doesn't work, just send it to us. I will give the news even if I risk my life."
A group of soldiers telling stories with earnest voices.
Watching them tell the story of risking her life for her comrades,
in Amelda's mind, her memories of her past...
Unable to risk her life for her hero, she began to rise.
And as a result,
she began to feel that she wanted to reward him for something like this...
Soon, this thought made her do one thing. She made a decision.
EP.57 There will be no bloodshed if you simply surrender
. Are you really okay?"
The general's words of concern.
However, the paladin Amelda spoke in a voice full of determination.
"As I said, my mission is to make the proclamation of the Holy Father known to all elves in the territory of this demon. If there are any remaining people in Galilee, it would be a principle to go and tell the news."
"Anyway, it is too risky to go there. In effect, it's like crossing the enemy's territory... "
"I knew the danger from the beginning, so I came, not anyone else. Even if it looks like this, the body that went all the way to the Demon King as a member of the Hero Party in the past. It would be much better than sending someone else."
"Ummm… "
Amelda, referring to the decree of the Pope and her duties in connection with it.
Watching her speak with a strong will, the
elf general had no choice but to give permission after a lot of thought.
"As I said, we cannot guarantee any safety in this regard. Please bear that in mind."
"Do not worry. However, if I fail and lose my life, please inform my country of the news. That Amelda received the punishment she deserved for her sins against the hero."
"… Okay. I will tell you that."
It was a story that did not feel very good for a will, but
Nevertheless, the general recognized the sincerity contained within and nodded his head.
From her appearance,
he was given the impression that he was seeing a pilgrim walking on the path of redemption.
*
The old man of the Falcon Empire A proud soldier of the Minoan
Empire and the person responsible for protecting Calvary Castle here, he was standing on the wall with a sword in a deep tension.
"ruler… General… "
"Calm down. Everyone, don't be afraid and defend your position."
"under… However… "
We are proud soldiers of the Empire. I will fight fiercely for my country to the end and die."
"ね… "
Minos spoke in a voice full of determination as a warrior.
However, despite his words, the soldiers at this moment could not easily shake off the fear that was entrenched in their hearts.
The scene in front of your eyes.
that…
It was a procession of countless flames moving around in the thick darkness.
Not ordinary lights, but green and purple flames that contain the magic of demons.
Seeing them indicating that thousands or even tens of thousands of troops were roaming the area, the soldiers could not relax their tension at the fact that the enemy would rush here at any moment.
Calvary Castle, the southernmost territory of the Tribal Union within the Demon Kingdom.
As in other regions, it was virtually isolated from the outside, and there was no expectation that external salvation would come from here, even on a small scale.
And,
in this situation, the mighty army of demons passing in front of them was terrifying by itself.
'The number of troops remaining in this castle is at most 300. There is nothing that can be done with less than a handful of troops.'
'If those guys turn this way in this situation, we'll end up with that day.'
'damn… Do I really have to die like this? No matter how much I was prepared to die, I couldn't go this way in a place like this... '
The soldiers are captured by emotions as if their hearts are shriveling while looking at the vicious flames of demons.
Although their
fears were barely suppressed by General Minos, who was screaming one after another by their side, nevertheless, their
fear remained deep in their hearts.
An army of demons appearing to be attacking us this way at any moment in front of our eyes.
As they watched the waves of death appearing through the flames, the soldiers could only feel their blood drying out every moment.
And this,
for a slightly different reason, was also true of General Minos, who was trying his best to encourage his soldiers.
'Are you really
coming in here? Or trying to attack the Allied Forces located elsewhere? Either way, with an
army like that, it must be clear that there is no such thing as a chance for us to win anymore... '
General Minos, who has overcome numerous crises so far
, nevertheless, Minos was feeling that there was nothing to be done as much as the large army of enemies in front of him.
In fact, now that a large army, the main force of the enemy, is gathered here, there is nothing left for them, guarding a small castle on the outskirts, except to face an honorable death.
'okay… Come see where But I won't give the head of this Minos to you guys easily.'
With such thoughts in mind, Minos is prepared to risk his life while dealing with the enemies to come.
However,
apart from this determination of his and the fears of his soldiers.
The flames of demons in front of me did not come to this place in the end, but disappeared somewhere as the day dawned.
In the end, Minos and his minions spent the entire night in such deep tension and fear.
Fortunately, the time of the end they expected did not come, but at this moment, there was only a deep sense of fear, not a sense of relief, in their hearts.
'Fortunately, he survived... But tonight it's definitely going to end.'
'Yesterday's goal was probably not us, but the next one will definitely be here… '
Even though the actual battle didn't take place, the soldiers are still caught up in great agitation.
I'd rather not know if the battle took place last night.
In this situation, when a strong wind of fear swept through them, a little leeway started to make them come up with more specific and diverse thoughts.
Despair and the signs of death that passed through their spines, and the longing for life that is felt stronger by the reaction.
These emotions naturally brought to mind extremely exacerbated situations with the help of imagination.
This began to drive them more and more into feelings of apprehension and tension, creating a strong fear and dread that the enemy might strike again.
After that, the night march of demons took place at irregular intervals for about a week.
Each time, the soldiers had to watch the scene vividly for defense while gathering on the wall, and the fear and anxiety of the soldiers only deepened.
A scene that vividly conveys the fact that their lives depend on alertness.
it will be repeated
Each time, the soldiers officially became more and more exhausted, and in the end, the inside of the castle grew day by day with the desire to somehow survive.
The captured fugitives and the soldiers who had given up on everything and were caught in despair began to appear one after another.
In just a few days, the human power of Calvary Castle was reduced to less than half, and the remaining soldiers were also mentally exhausted.
and…
in front of them.
A letter was delivered along with one of the soldiers who tried to escape.
"Read it."
"you… your general."
A deserter who picks up the letter with trembling hands at Minos's words.
He began to read it carefully in front of his colleagues.
"I will show you mercy if you simply leave the castle and retreat. But if you resist to the end, you will also be slaughtered just like Timothy's soldiers."
A story that will open the way for you to live in a reality that has only been filled with despair.
At the same time, he declared that if he refused this mercy, he would surely put an end to it.
As a result, the remaining soldiers in the fortress began to be greatly shaken.
"right… Are you going to save us?"
"You mean you can get out of this hellish place, right?"
at that time…
"Be quite! Don't fall for the evil tricks of your enemies! Aren't those filthy bastards supposed to be able to save us?"
General Minos speaks in a resolute voice.
However, about this, the lieutenants who were by his side and the soldiers under his command began to speak in a cautious voice.
"under… But, General, if we had planned to do that in the first place, the enemies would have attacked us already."
"Still, I've heard that some demons treat them mildly as prisoners of war."
"Anyway, everyone will die like this, but rather… Whoops!!!"
"!"
In the next moment, General Minos beheaded the head of a general who was trying to persuade him as it is.
Immediately after that, he showed a gaze full of life and said, radiating an animal-like appearance to those in front of him.
"Once again
I will tell you. There is no such thing as surrender. We are the proud warriors of the Falcon Empire. Here we will surely bury the bones.
To die while defending your honor as a dignified warrior until the end . You know!"
"… ."
"Answer me! Aren't you asking if you understand!"
"Ah… al… I will, General."
General Minos enters the barracks with a warning that is close to living like that.
and… Seeing him like this
, the soldiers who were there started exchanging glances carefully.
In this desperate situation, what they must do to survive.
*
"Ummm…"
"The neck of General Minos, who was guarding Calvary."
"As promised, please let us live."
Humans kneeling in front of them begging for mercy.
Looking down at them, Samson slowly nodded his head and said:
"I get it. We are generous, showing mercy to those who surrender. There will be no bloodshed if you simply empty the castle and leave, so please go in peace."
"I… thank you."
"I will never forget this grace."
The soldiers bowed their heads at Samson's words and returned as they were.
Watching them vacate the castle without much battle and run away, a deep smile began to form on Samson's lips.
'It's a warrior's strategy, the performance is sure.'
EP.58 Fishers of
people The soldiers of the Falcon Empire retreated safely due to the 'mercy' of the demons.
However, throughout the retreat, there was still a strong feeling of fear in their minds that they might surprise them or not.
While they were only a few hundred, their number ranged from thousands to tens of thousands.
If they change their mind, they will be slaughtered without actually doing anything after they escaped from the castle.
This fact automatically encouraged them to strategically retreat…
No, he was making him run away.
However, contrary to their concerns, fortunately, there was no chase or surprise by the demons.
As a result, the soldiers at Calvary were able
to arrive safely at Rob where the retreat was taking place.
And,
the stories of their experiences began to spread from their mouths, who lived through their lives like that.
With the army of tens of thousands of demons.
The story of their perilous situation, having barely survived among them.
*
"All enemies have retreated. Commander-in-Chief."
"good night. Then let's get going."
Samson gets up happily after hearing the report that the situation is over.
Immediately after that, he just opened the barracks and went outside.
He immediately looked at the figures of his subordinates gathered there.
There were fewer than a thousand soldiers gathered there.
This was all Samson had brought with him to take Calvary here.
That number was frankly considered a little insufficient for a siege, and
some of them had not even recovered from their injuries from the last battle, so the overall situation was not good.
However, apart from this real power.
Samson's current army had a different dimension from its size when viewed from a distance.
At this moment,
the backs of Samson's men were all tied to wooden pedestals.
A wooden pedestal to which three or four flaming torches each are tied together.
In addition, some demons were even holding torches in their hands.
If you look at this from afar, the number of soldiers in this position can only be seen as a large army that is at least 4 times and at most 10 times.
Through this deception, Samson was able to convince his enemies that the size of his troops was too large to even compare with those of his enemies.
As a result, they succeeded in simply taking Calvary Castle without making any sacrifices for the allies.
Samson and his soldiers achieved the goal easily without taking a hit.
Soon they went into the inner city of Calvary, where they could relax and start talking about this incident.
"Still, I did light the torch until the end just in case, but it didn't really happen."
"In the first place, they were the ones who even brought the captain's neck and sacrificed it, so it would have been natural."
"It's something I've experienced before, but the hero's tactics seem to be great. I hope you can make your enemies run away with such a simple trick."
"Yeah, he's definitely a
great guy. His skills as a warrior are excellent, and he also knows how to win in war. When he is an enemy, there is no such dangerous guy,
but when he becomes an ally, I think he is a very reliable existence."
Demons expressing their sympathy by nodding their heads at Samson's words while smiling.
In that way, Samson and his men, who won the victory, once again cemented their trust in the hero who led this plan.
*
At the time when Samson and his party occupied
Calvary, 'victories' similar to those that occurred here at Calvary were continuing simultaneously in various parts of the Demon Kingdom.
The absurdly large number of the Demon King's troops and the soldiers of the Tribal Union who gave up their resistance in fear.
Although some of them continued their will to fight to the end in spite of such a terrifying situation, there were not many such areas.
There are very few people who can claim their honor until the end in a situation where there is no hope.
Especially if it is the generals who are responsible for the situation.
In the case of ordinary soldiers, it was not easy to have the will to do something even at the cost of their lives.
Especially in situations where despair and death are felt through the skin.
As such, the demons were able to achieve the result of recovering most of the remaining territory at the point when their direct combat power was showing the bottom in the face of the end of the offensive.
In addition, the result of breaking the remaining will of the enemy to fight through the fleeing soldiers could also be achieved as a bonus.
But,
Even in this situation, some castles were burning their will to resist until the very end, and as a result,
those who led only a small number of troops felt a little embarrassed, but decided to wait for a while, report the situation, and wait calmly for support. did.
In the first place, it was inevitable that the troops were moved by focusing on deception rather than direct combat.
And among those who felt frustrated in such a situation,
she was also caught up in her troubled mood these days.
*
The city of Galilee in front of your eyes.
Looking at the place the elves occupied, she...
Elisha was automatically frowned at her, feeling a deep sense of irritation.
"anyway… Those filthy elves are really needlessly proud of themselves."
The elven soldiers of Galilee still show a stubborn attitude with the gates locked and locked despite the deceit and the invitation to surrender, as the hero had told them.
In response to this,
Elisha is waiting for support, as previously stated, while earnestly waiting for support. He began to think about whether he would infiltrate himself and pluck the head of the enemy,
but soon he shook his head about that.
'Of course, it's not impossible if it's my skill, but it's something I might just do to raise the morale of my enemies for nothing, because sometimes people can be braver in the face of death.'
Elisa gives the soldiers a break while observing the surroundings of the castle while deciding not to do anything that makes the situation worse by performing like that.
and…
In the free time she had,
Elisa thought for a while about the part she had been struggling with recently, and wondered if it had anything to do with
the hero who her mother, who she loved the most, had in her heart. I started thinking about it.
She said, 'Once
we've released the people and let them do the investigation, something might come up... What if Mama really had a relationship with a hero like
that? Of course, it is true that Mama is more mature and pretty than me, but... '
Although she was her mother, Elias, who was turning 400 this year, her appearance was still young and beautiful.
The fact that she is a widow with an adult daughter is unbelievable. Elias, who has an outstanding beauty, is not
just her mother, but objectively a woman about Elias. It was decent enough.
On the other hand, Elisa had a complex that her appearance was not very mature for her age.
At first glance, she seems to have no choice but to give her the feeling of being her sister or daughter rather than a lover.
While thinking like that, she said that Elisha had suddenly started to put a bitter smile on her lips without knowing her.
'ha… I'm really She said that the day would come when she would feel jealous of her because of Mama's appearance...'
Elisa let out her deep sigh as she felt strangely enthralled about this situation.
Then she…
"Elisa, it's a report!"
"report?"
Elisa started to feel a little doubt as she
saw the manager running to her and talking to her in a hurry .
Then her manager immediately began to tell the story of the situation he had just seen.
"A group of enemies has now appeared from the byway to the west. It seems that they are trying to enter the city of Galilee."
"What? You mean their savior has come all the way here?"
In fact, it was Galilee, a place isolated like a remote island in the middle of the occupied territory of the demons.
As Elisha knew that they were not in a good position to send support to such a place, the appearance of a new enemy was truly unexpected.
But,
Regarding this, the manager spoke to her in a cautious voice.
"It looks like it, but… To be honest, I can't seem to be sure. The number of them is too small to be called a
rescuer." "I wonder what level they
are."
"Only 100?"
Clearly, the number of troops at that level was much smaller than that of those encamped inside the castle, so it didn't seem like a big deal.
However, as it is, there are some questionable parts, so Elisha began to feel the need to investigate the details.
"First of all, to guide you, I have to judge them by seeing them with my own eyes."
"Yes, I understand, Elisha."
So Elisa arrived with the manager at the side of the forest road they were coming in.
But right after that, Elisha could find a familiar face among the 'rescuers' who were moving carefully.
'That year was definitely... '
A female paladin who appears to be the leader of the group.
Who she was, she could recognize Elisha at a glance.
She was a member of a party of warriors who had invaded her demon king's castle in the past, and she was the one who confronted her in her brief moment.
and...
One of the 'traitors' who provided a decisive opportunity for the hero to turn his back on the tribal union and become a member of the demon tribes.
As she recalled those facts,
a cold smile automatically began to appear on Elisa's lips.
EP.59 Don't insult me anymore!
The appearance of the city of Galilee that began to appear before my eyes.
Looking there, Amelda and her hundred men who followed her could breathe her faint sigh of relief.
'Although I have overcome dangerous hurdles several times to get here. Fortunately, there were no problems.'
'Surprisingly, the defense of the demons was weak. Areas other than the main passage or the castle were rarely patrolled.'
The appearance of demons who seemed not to care about small movements rather than large-scale military movements.
In response, Amelda and her soldiers speculated that her demons were intoxicated with their past victory and relaxed.
'Even if the little guys wander around, you can't change the charter. What is it?'
'Sometimes it just feels like the army is a little lacking, but I guess that's not the case... '
Of course, nothing was certain about this,
In fact, despite the somewhat relaxed defenses, there were moments when they were quite close, so they could not relax their tension throughout the march.
However.
When they finally arrived here, overlooking the Galilee with a mountain in between,
they automatically felt a slight relief and could only breathe a sigh of relief.
There was still quite a distance, but in their eyes the flag of the Tribal Union was fluttering in the wind.
Although it cannot be said with certainty, with a high probability, it meant that the castle of Galilee had not yet fallen into the hands of the demons.
"Good luck, it looks like you are still unharmed."
"Wait a moment… Still, in case you don't know, I think it would be better to look at the situation and move on. After all, it may be the enemy's deception."
"ah… yes."
"All right. Amelda."
Although the possibility was low, Amelda showed an attitude of being careful until the very end.
So the soldiers definitely came all the way here, and they agreed to her words, thinking that there was nothing wrong with being careful until the very end.
"good. If not, I'll let you go on my own."
"yes? Oh, you mean Amelda yourself?"
"Aren't you going to risk it? Not sure, but if it's really an enemy trap... "
Soldiers talking with feelings of concern.
However,
seeing them like that, Amelda said in a calm voice.
"it's okay. It was something I had been preparing for before coming here anyway. And if something really happens, then I, who has the most fighting ability, will be able to cope with it more easily."
"Ummm… "
"It is, but… "
If it was Amelda, who was definitely a member of the Braves Party, even if they had dug a trap, it would have been enough to turn it off and come out.
It would have been very difficult if it had not been for Amelda's ability to have escaped the perilous crisis that she had suffered while coming here in the first place.
So the soldiers decided to respect Amelda's will, and seeing them like that, Amelda spoke in a serious voice.
"If I don't come back within two hours, then let me know what's going on."
"All right. In the meantime, we will be waiting here."
"Yeah, then we'll go. If anything happens, please retreat immediately."
"Okay, Amelda."
Amelda, who left to understand the situation clearly, and the soldiers who had to wait here for a while.
Although it was called waiting, they had no choice but to take a break in deep fatigue due to the aftermath of running non-stop for a fairly long distance.
"after… How did you even get here?"
"Well, say it. Now all that is left is to go back with the soldiers in Galilee. To be honest, it will be really difficult from there."
Originally, it was a city of Galilee where close to 1,000 troops were to be stationed, and even
if there were battles in the meantime, even if the troops were reduced, there was a high possibility that at least hundreds of troops would remain.
Retreating with those who can afford it will certainly be a lot more difficult than it has been to come this far.
As such, the elf soldiers began to feel a sense of concern about the situation that would follow along with the rest.
at that time…
- Fight!
"!"
"uh?"
The next moment,
a small but clear sound reached their ears.
At the sound of something breaking a branch among the bushes, the soldiers immediately began to raise their weapons.
"Is it… the enemy?"
"Oh, maybe…"
"damn… I mean, when it's like this... "
It's not clearly visible, but it sounds like it's stabbing in their ears.
And they could know through the presence of an elf that could only be felt more clearly due to the nature of the race.
At this moment, the fact that there is someone nearby.
The fact that they have an 'enemy'.
"uh… What do we do? I think they are right in front of me... "
"Calm down for now. Because if you do it for nothing, you could end up in a disappointment."
The elf soldiers try to keep their cool by encouraging each other somehow even though they are trembling with anxiety.
However,
despite their attitude, the 100 or so elf soldiers gathered in this place felt as if their whole body was stiff and could not take any action.
I don't know if I'd rather been an ordinary human.
For the elves who are accustomed to detecting the presence of enemies in such a forest, the presence of enemies felt nearby was in the midst of being touched very clearly.
Countless movements of enemies emitting
killing intent that felt as if there were hundreds or even thousands at the most.
In that vivid sense, holding the power in the hand holding the weapon,
The elves were gripped by the growing tension.
'Damn it... was it really a trap?'
'Dangerous. Their siege is getting thicker. I went on like this, and there was nothing...'
At that time.
"Hey, did you feel it too?"
"!... eww… yes!"
In the next moment, the movement of the enemy is clearly perceived in their senses.
At the same time,
the eyes of the elf soldiers who were there began to gather in one place.
The presence of 'enemies' that had not been seen until recently, but seemed to surround them everywhere.
It was starting to fade little by little in one direction at a time.
It feels as if a hole in the siege was accidentally created in the process of encircling the surrounding area more tightly.
And, in
this regard, the quick-decision soldiers spoke to their comrades next to them in an urgent voice.
"Let's run."
"hair… What?"
"Let's run! If not now, there is no chance!"
"ah!"
With those words, the elf soldier slashes the bushes and jumps over the trees, running forward, and the rest of the people following him.
They jumped out of it and began to run forward, as if it were a bird that quickly escaped from a cage with a hole in it.
It was a situation in which the body was scratched by tree branches due to moving so quickly, and some even sprained their legs.
But at this moment, the elf soldiers didn't even have time to care about these little things or think about anything else.
They could still feel the ferocious presence of the enemies behind them. They were rapidly closing the siege with a force that seemed to swallow them up.
For now, the correct answer was to get out of the grip of the enemies that felt like the devil's jaws.
And after a while,
immediately after an elapsed time that I was not sure how much I had run like that. The elves barely stopped in their seats.
Fortunately, they no longer felt the same presence around them, but in return they began to recognize that they had completely moved away from the realm of the city of Galilee, which they had been aiming for.
And one more thing.
There was a fact that they realized only after standing one step behind.
That's right...
"Come on, wait a minute! By the way, what about Amelda?"
"! 👑…"
*
"…"
Demons who completely surround themselves.
And, a female demon rising from her shadow and pointing a blade at the nape of her neck.
With the appearance of a girl with her silvery hair and gleaming red eyes, she said looking at Amelda with a cold smile on her lips.
"It's been a long time, have you suffered a bit because the color has gotten more dirty in the meantime?"
"you… You… no way… Once upon a time in the Demon King's Castle... "
She was still half assimilated into the shadows, holding the green dagger she had seen before.
In this way, Amelda was able to automatically recognize who this woman holding her lifeline was.
She is one of her demon king's executives, who briefly met her at the demon king's castle in the past.
It was a brief head-to-head, but
at the time she was aware that Amelda had an advantage on her own as she faced two years and hopefully she would be able to claim a victory.
In the present case, even she had no choice but to acknowledge her.
The demons aiming at her weapons from all sides of her,
and, decisively, the moment she lifts her finger, the blade of this demon girl that is sure to blow her neck straight away.
In this situation, even if she was one of her top-notch paladins, there was no way she could do it.
"damn… "
- Clang.
In the midst of such a deep emotion of anger, Amelda has no choice but to drop her sword she was holding.
Then she was forced to kneel on her floor, and immediately a word of deep despair came out of her mouth.
"… kill it There is no such thing as wanting to prolong her life in vain."
Amelda's words are resolute.
However,
seeing her like that, the demon girl looked around her subordinates instead of wielding her dagger and nodded her head.
OK…
"! What… What are you doing? Stop it! Stop cursing and kill me!"
Amelda shouts in an urgent voice.
Completely ignoring her words, her demon soldiers immediately began to tightly bind Amelda's body.
And,
as she looked down at her, a demon girl who began to show unusual eyes.
Amelda instinctively began to recognize that something bad was going to happen after this.
the girl at the same time.
A deep smile began to appear on the corner of her Elisa's lips as it was.
Like a snake about to swallow her prey.
Such a creepy smile.
EP.60 I'll make it pretty... Amelda
is captured and miserably dragged away by her demons.
The place where she was dragged
with the shackles that suppressed her magical powers was the basement of a shabby building that her demons were using as her base.
A gloomy place with an unpleasant atmosphere.
And
"You guys get out. I will interrogate this guy myself."
"Yes, Elisha."
"I will be waiting nearby. If anything happens, call me right away."
As soon as she arrives there, Elisa, a demon woman, immediately sends her men away.
Then she locked the door and
slowly turned her gaze to Amel Da.
"Well then… There's no one else to interfere with this, so... "
The figure of her licking her lips with a creepy smile on her lips.
At this, Amelda suppressed her fear from her instincts and looked straight at her with a cold expression on her face.
'Are you going to torture me? Wherever you want to try it, do it. You'll never get the answers you guys want!'
She had already experienced countless sufferings in the Falcon Empire.
She couldn't even blink her eyes at any torture, and she had no thoughts of betrayal, even if she was to die any longer.
As she thinks about it, Amelda begins to prepare her heart for the pain to come.
And,
looking at her, her, her, her, her, her, her, her high-ranking demon, her name, Elisa, gave her intense gaze and began to slowly approach her as she was.
"Huh huh… "
Elisa let out a small laugh with intense excitement and anticipation.
Then she slowly began to caress Amelda's chin, moving her hand in a creepy, natural way, reminiscent of her spider.
"Honestly, I was really surprised. I can't believe that I will be able to obtain such an unexpected gift from such a distant place."
"ね… ."
The gentle yet creepy touch of Elisa.
At this, Amelda automatically frowned slightly and looked straight into Elsa's face.
and…
"Twitch!"
"… "
Amelda spitting on the face of this filthy demon right in front of her eyes.
Then Amelda, with her expression full of anger, shouted at Elisha with a firm voice.
"Don't insult the knight, kill him right now!! Dirty motherfuckers who killed the hero! Do you think you will be able to open my mouth with such torture!"
As a paladin and at the same time as her body, who was once a member of the hero's party, she was thinking about facing the end with dignity.
Of course, if she did this, she would be killed more painfully, but Amelda didn't really care about that.
She had already come here with the spirit of a martyr to atone for her sins.
As a sinner who forsaken her chance to save the world because
of her foolish mistake , and even killed her hero, she is
ready to face the worst death she's ever been willing to call the worst... No, she was longing to be like that.
On the other hand, she seemed to be able to bring her even a little bit of her peace of mind to her.
And,
about her provocation.
Elisha wiped the saliva off her face and began to show a creepy smile.
"… haha. This is so... Has it been a more devastating year than you thought? Where is the story of a hero on the subject of an obscene traitor."
Although she still has a smile on her face, Elisa speaks in a voice that feels cold and anger for a moment.
Then she slowly pulled out the green dagger from her waist and lifted it.
and.
"Okay, I decided. Originally, I was thinking about digging up information in a reasonable way and handing it over in a relatively intact state, but it's not unusual for it to be brazen at times."
With that horse, Elisa begins to pour out a rich magic power to the dagger she is holding.
At the same time.
Amelda's expression began to harden in an instant at the ominous energy she suddenly began to feel.
'What… what? That's... ' Instead of pouring magical energy into her
sword as usual,
she cut off one of her fingertips and then condensed the magical energy in the blood that came out of it, casting some unknown magic.
For a moment, Amelda said that, not the torture she had expected, but
something more terrifying about her than she had thought...
Beyond simple pain, she instinctively began to sense that something was about to happen.
"yes… you guys What are you trying to do?"
"Huh huh… "
Amelda asks a question in a voice that trembles slightly involuntarily, in a sudden attack of fear.
In response to her questioning, her Elisa began to approach her as it was, giving off her creepy laughter.
"It's nothing… It's because the race of four years is an elf. To play a very funny prank after a long time..."
With those words, Elisha began to bring the sword she was holding onto Amelda's abdomen.
At the same time, Amelda began to feel as if something was about to happen that shouldn't have happened to her.
"Come on, sleep… Knock... This... what the hell is this?"
and.
-Pak!
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!"
In the next moment,
Elisha slashed the dagger into Amelda's abdomen.
At the same time, I felt tremendous
pain and blood gushing out like a fountain.
However,
at this moment as an unimaginable pain struck her mind,
she could instinctively feel Amelda.
This pain wrapped around her body. The fact that it is never just a simple pain.
The fact that there is something even more terrifying beneath the pain that you can be sure of is the worst.
'what… this… What is this... What is this? What the hell is this?!'
A terrifying sensation, starting from her stomach and running through her entire body.
It's like pouring black ink on a white canvas...
At this terrifying feeling, as if forcibly twisting her essence,
Amelda began to be gripped by an overwhelming fear she had never felt before.
and…
"Ugh… Can't it be done just once?"
With those words, Elisa pulled out the sword that had been lodged in her stomach.
At the same time, Amelda let out her harsh breath as she felt the pain that seemed to turn her body upside down disappeared.
"! Aww! Huh... Huh... "
The moment that made a few seconds feel like hours, just
after it was over, Amelda's mouth began to spit out her moans of anguish.
However, at this moment, there was no scar left on Amelda's abdomen, which was stabbed by her sword.
Traces of a large amount of blood still remain, but that's all.
There were no signs of torn skin or broken intestines.
But before her Amelda could even realize this,
her Elisa, covered in her Amelda's blood, looked down at her with a deep smile on her lips and said:
"You are really strong, even in a situation where her magical powers are sealed, you can resist this much. If you're not like me, you wouldn't be able to even try."
Elisha speaks incomprehensible words happily.
At this, Amelda looked up at Elisha's face and began to open her mouth with a trembling voice.
"Huh… Heh heh... bar... just that... how… .?"
As a result of being engulfed in an overwhelming fear that transcends her imagination, she is forced to vomit questions with her trembling voice.
At this moment, her mind was no longer about her pride or atonement as a knight, but her doubts and fears about this incomprehensible situation she was going to face.
"Say it! What the hell are you doing to me... What are you trying to do with me!"
Amelda vomits the question in a voice that sounds like she's having a seizure.
And,
about her question like this.
Elisha began to speak her words in a voice full of joy.
"Well, it's not that great. just… She's just trying to play the pranks she used to do with the unlucky elf bitches when she was young."
With those words, Elisa lightly licks Amelgar's blood on her dagger with her tongue.
Then she looked at herself as she was, looking at Amelda, who was trembling with her fear,
and threw out a word in a very light voice.
"Yes, you… Do you know if I am a dark elf?"
"!"
One word that came out of Elisha's mouth.
A name that is so disrespectful that you even dare to put it in your mouth
A state in which an elf of noble blood, blessed by God, has been forcibly distorted and corrupted by the highest-ranking demons.
The moment she heard the name of the terrible curse, which is called a disgrace to God and shame of an elf just for being,
Amelda finally recognized the situation in front of her, and at the same time, her face began to drain with blood. .
"west… no way… I hope you now... "
"Huh… You don't have to be so
nervous. Even though it looks like this, he fell in love with it, so he is a veteran who has been training for more than 10 years. Even those who have 'treated' with my
own hands can build a village, so there will be no accident in which the body explodes along the way."
With those words, she once again puts her own blood and magic in her sword, and Elisha begins to point her teeth at Amelda's abdomen.
Seeing her like this, Amelda shook her head slowly, shaking her whole body.
"ah… no… ."
"Be at ease… I'll make it pretty soon. And be grateful that her service will surely twist even that rotten mind head."
"No, no!!!!!!!"
-Pak!
