Chapter 8 - 8

EP.70 Isn't that what I'm thinking of doing?

A few days after the grand banquet to celebrate the victory.

In the office located in the center of the Demon King Castle, the Demon King was working hard on government affairs as usual.

Restoring the reclaimed territories and sending people there.

Other than that, checking the troops in preparation for a war that might happen again, but reducing the proportion of the army that has a great influence on national power just by being there, etc..

At this moment, the contents of work that were literally piled up like a mountain were making her insanely busy. Because of this ,

despite being the monarch of the victorious country, she was not at peace with her mind, but was busy every day beyond the wartime situation.

'In a way, this can also be called a winner's duty... Still, it's not easy. The amount of work that even the luggage is burdensome...'

To be honest, the Demon King was born with a temperament closer to that of a warrior with a sword than a writer with a quill.

For her like that, she couldn't help but stress her time like these days.

It was something she had to do, but she didn't want to rot…

The life of a demon king who is spending the same time as a kind of study

examiner

, watching the demon king showing such fatigue.

Her friend and subordinate, Belze Beauty, said with a slight bitter smile on her lips.

"Are you okay, Your Majesty? Aren't you overworking yourself with political affairs these days?"

"I would be lying if I said no. However, this is also something that cannot be helped as a person standing on top. There are many people to take care of, and the territory to rule is wide. Even if it's not easy, you have to be strong."

"indeed… Your heart that always thinks of the people is also wonderful, Your Majesty. I think God is very fortunate to have a monarch like Your Majesty at a time like this."

"I have become a father. He doesn't want to be praised for what he deserves... More than that, Belze Beauty."

"Your Majesty."

In the next moment, the demon king begins to show some strange signs.

As a result, a mysterious shadow automatically began to appear on Belze Beauty's face... Seeing her like that, the Demon King spoke in her calm voice.

"It will be there soon… How is the part about the Narsil election going on?"

"Your Majesty. As it is a short-lived competition, quite a few people are expressing their intention to participate. Some of the corps commanders or members of the bodyguards who have never won a championship are starting to come out."

"is it… A corps commander or a member of the SS... then… Who is that?"

"yes?"

A demon king who asks a question with a slightly different feeling in one moment.

For a moment, Belze Beauty did not clearly understand what her question was, but…

The Demon King looked at her like that and asked a question in her clear voice again.

"That person. my lover... Will the warriors also participate?"

"ah… Yes, it is. According to reports, we know that it is."

"Huhu. I see Also… With

those words, the Demon King begins to show a meaningful smile on his lips.

Seeing her like this, Belze Beauty began to feel as if something unusual was about to happen.

and…

"there… Belze Beauty? According to what Jim knows, the condition for participating in the Narsil election is that anyone can participate, except for those who have won the championship and become Narsil, right?"

"yes… Yes, but… Why is it all of a sudden… !"

"Whoops…"

The Demon King begins to let out a light laugh at Belze Beauty's words.

Seeing her like this,

Belzebeauty asked in a voice filled with deep anxiety due to an ominous fact that came to mind in an instant.

"I… Over there... Your Majesty? Aren't you trying to do what I'm thinking of right now?"

"Huh huh."

"Oh really, Your Majesty!"

It was Belze Beauty who just smiled at her own words and spoke with a stiff voice while looking at her demon king.

*

News from the election of Narsil that has been spread throughout the Demon Kingdom.

In this regard, the Demon Kingdom was caught up in a lot of excitement, as if it was just before the World Cup in the real world.

"I heard that this competition is different from the scale?"

"It seems that the prize money given to the winner is more than double the usual."

"Isn't that because it is a competition held to commemorate the victory? Moreover, it has not been held because of the war all the time, so it is all the more so."

In fact, the Narsil Election Battle, which is preparing to be held even more loudly, is an event to announce the resurrection of the Demon Kingdom, which has suffered from war.

As a result, in Jerusalem, the capital of the Demon Kingdom, which is currently preparing for the competition, warriors from all over the Demon Kingdom gathered from all over the

world and said to be using sesame seeds. started to show

Demon merchants selling various street food, weapons, and souvenirs, as well as those who buy and sell their goods.

and…

In the atmosphere of the Demon Kingdom, like such a big festival,

I couldn't help but feel as excited as the others in many ways.

If the university festival was held on the school campus, the Demon Kingdom's Narsil selection battle felt like the entire city was soaked in a festive atmosphere.

It was impossible to compare in terms of scale, and the heat was also very hot even though the full-scale competition had not yet started.

"I've heard of the story, but I know it's amazing. I feel like this is the first time I have ever experienced a festival of this size."

"What… Even though it looks like this, it is one of the biggest official events in the country."

Elisa speaks in a voice that seems to be a little rigid at my words, but feels quite proud.

As a member of the SS,

she was tasked with monitoring the progress of the festival with her subordinates, and she asked me to accompany her if she had nothing to do

. accepted the request.

So, with Elisa and her subordinates, she roamed the streets and carried out on-site inspections.

However, to

be honest, in my case, I was more interested in how the festive atmosphere was going than in the work at this moment.

The reason I accepted Elisa's proposal in the first place was because I wanted to look around in relation to that.

As a human being in a situation where there are a lot of demons coming from all directions, there is a risk that the atmosphere will become a bit strange if I walk alone, so it was better to move with the official seal of a civil servant in such a case.

'If I could, I wanted to go around alone with our Demon King, not like this... Well, that will be possible only after the competition starts in earnest.'

It's unreasonable for now to spend time with the busy Demon King because of work right now.

Feeling dissatisfied with that fact, I started to look around eagerly, thinking that it would be good to find out where there is a good place to wander around with the Demon Lord.

At this moment, looking at Elisa, who seems to have raised her tension more than usual, perhaps because she is excited about the festive atmosphere, she thinks that she has a rather unexpected side to her.

*

Elisha succeeded

in piercing her hero under the right pretext. At this moment, she had a hard time controlling the smile that automatically appeared on her lips due to the pounding emotions in her heart.

'iced coffee… To be able to spend time together like this... Happy!'

Although the surrounding

atmosphere was chaotic due to her subordinates accompanying her, she was also in a position where she could not neglect her work itself, but, nevertheless

, Elisa was able to stay with the hero without being taken away by anyone else. It just felt good to be true.

She said, 'But luckily, the hero accepted my offer. Doesn't that mean that the hero's heart hasn't completely gone to Mama yet?'

Of course

, depending on the interpretation, it was possible to interpret that it could be that she was trying to build a friendship with the girl who might become a daughter in the future, but she

was forcing Elisa's mind from going in that direction forcibly.

At this moment, all she needs is not her own dad. Because she was the one who would be the father of her own child.

Thinking like that, she was at the time when Elisa was trying to feel the warmth of the hero as much as possible while sneaking up to her side.

"Elisa. At this point, she seems to have turned around halfway through, so why not take a break for her?"

"ah… uh... Is that so?"

For a moment, it was Elisa who felt a little interrupted by her subordinate's words, but soon she turned that unpleasant feeling and began to think about it for the better.

She said, 'It's a break... Yeah, that's not bad either. It's a good opportunity to have a meal with a brave man.'

Elisa once accepted her subordinate's suggestion while she thought so.

Immediately after that, she looked at the warrior standing next to her and asked a question in the most natural way possible.

"Then let us rest a little. It's also meal time. Even if I do yogi in moderation."

"Yes it is."

A warrior who shows obedience to Elisha's words.

At that time, she began to search for a suitable place around her with joy in her heart

...

"yes? That guy... "

In the next moment, a familiar face suddenly appeared in her eyes.

At the same time, the subordinates by her side also started to respond immediately.

"He… certainly."

A familiar figure in their eyes the next moment.

that…

A member of the Four Heavenly Kings of the National Guard wearing armor that flashes golden light in the middle of such a road.

It was Nyathan's face.

EP.71 A friend with a blurred presence

A person who stands out wearing golden armor.

At the appearance of Nyathan, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the SS, Elisha's men began to show a slight interest.

"I hope I can meet Nyathan-sama in a place like this."

"Hey, can I recommend a meal for something like this before?"

As for the company, demons appearing as if they were trying to talk to a co-worker they had been keeping an eye on.

It would be natural if it was natural, but among ordinary demons, the SS or corps commander could be said to be a being who possessed more status than a celebrity in the present.

A hero representing the country and a symbol of power.

To that extent, Elisha's men showed keen interest in Nyathan in front of them at this moment and began to approach him cautiously.

"I… there!"

"Hello, Nyathan!"

"You… .Elisa's men?"

Nyathan answered them in a blunt tone.

Although the body was covered in golden armor, I could recognize the fact that his gender was female through the clear voice I heard from him.

On the other hand, looking at Nyathan who responded to their words, Elisha's subordinates, demons with a rather active personality, continued to speak with a slightly tense voice.

"Yes, yes, Nyathan. As you can see, we were on patrol with Elisha."

"Right. Elisa. You were there."

With those words, Nyathan glanced at Elisha who was standing over there.

At this, Elisha smiled a little gladly at the fact that she had met her friend, and Nyathan responded by slowly nodding her head.

And immediately after that, her demons who spoke to her while seeing her Nyathan's appearance spoke her words in a voice filled with a little expectation.

"It is truly an honor to have met Nyathan like this."

"Actually, we were going to have dinner from now on."

"If it's okay with you, would you like to join us?"

Elisa's subordinates actively invite them to sit together.

However,

to their offer, Nyathan answered with a calm voice.

"I'm sorry, I have to go to the royal castle right away. If there is a chance later, I'll have a seat at that time."

"ah… yes."

"I'm sorry... I'll see you next time."

After refusing the offer with a clear voice, Nyathan just glances at Elisha and disappears.

It was at that time when Elisa's subordinates began to feel a bit bitter at her blunt attitude from beginning to end.

"The attempt was good, but the opponent wasn't very good."

"Elisa?"

"What… ?"

Elisha speaks with a little comfort.

At her words, Elisa's men looked at her questioningly, and to them, Elisa put a light smile on her lips and said,

"He has a personality that hides the day a little bit, so it's not the case with my friend, but he tends to feel a lot of pressure when it comes to hanging out with other people."

"ah… yes."

The demons reacted with regret to Elisha's words.

Then, Elisa added her extra explanation as if it was a little extra.

"Nyathan Josiah.

330 years old single. He has the most sincere personality among the SS, but that doesn't mean he doesn't show any particularly noticeable passion. He's not a bad

guy, but maybe because of his shy personality, he doesn't want to get along with other people, and he doesn't show interest in anything

.

"okay."

Elisha read her biography line by line as if to show that her friend was not a decoration,

and the other demons nodded her head as if they understood the current situation.

"What can I say… I think you can see why I couldn't see her very well while wearing that gleaming golden armor."

"But I am sorry. Still, as one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the SS, he was someone I personally admired."

"Anyway, I was there to say hello, otherwise it would have evaporated. anyway… Because he is a difficult friend in many ways."

Elisa, who spoke with her bitter smile,

immediately after the story about Nyathan was over, her demons began to scatter to eat as they were.

On the other hand, looking at the back of the demon Nyathan who appeared and disappeared for such a short time, I cautiously said to Elisha.

"Come to think of it… I think I've seen that one before. Did you fight Shud in the Demon Castle?"

"If you're talking about Shud, you're talking about the witch of that wizarding realm, right? he's probably right I was too busy dealing with Amelda, so I couldn't see it clearly."

"As far as I know, I've heard that there are fewer than three Shud-class wizards in the wizarding world, but if you're fighting against such a person, you're not usually a strong person either."

"It's definitely not normal, among the Four Heavenly Kings of our bodyguards, it's purely based on force, but that guy is probably the strongest. Let's hear it there... Surprisingly, I think he also said that he was going to appear in the Narsil Selection Match."

"okay… In some cases, it might even become our opponent."

"I know. Perhaps it will be."

With those words, Elisha shows her own wretched resolve.

Meanwhile, apart from her attitude like this, at this moment, I began to recall the presence of her demon, Nyathan, that I had felt for the last time.

'What can I say... At first glance, it seemed like he didn't like me very much... '

A sensation similar to the momentary feeling of hostility.

Although I couldn't see the expression because of the pitch, I could recognize that it never felt good.

'I didn't have any special contact with that guy, but... Still, I'll have to be careful first. It may be that he simply hates humans as demons.'

*

"Ha… ."

Nyathan escaped from Elisha's group and entered an alley with few people.

Immediately after that, a heavy sigh escaped her mouth.

Her body was covered in golden armor, so her condition was unknown.

But…

At this moment, Nyathan was shaking her body as if something was suppressing her feelings.

She was breathing heavily, and the presence of a presence in her body was a good reminder that she was shaking loudly.

And, amidst these clearly visible unstable sensations.

At this moment, two intense emotions were wriggling in Nyathan's heart.

Nyathan takes out the pendant he always carries to suppress one of them

.

Her little portrait of the person she had just seen.

It contained a portrait of Elisha.

'It was dangerous... Elisa... After all, you're so pretty today too... '

Her little silvery friend whom I had really stumbled upon a while ago.

Thinking of her countless times, Nyathan was trying her best to calm her trembling chest.

'Ah...

Elisha... I feel it every time, but you're still the best... Those sparkling red eyes and white jade-like skin. Maybe she could be that beautiful? The moment you looked at me with those

eyes, my heart almost stopped... '

In a nutshell, Elisha and Nyathan are just ordinary friends.

However, for Nyathan, her existence as Elisa could never be regarded as an ordinary friend.

In the past, when she was a military officer, she met Elisa by chance.

The moment she saw her then, who was already a member of the Four Kings of her bodyguard at the time, her Nyathan fell in love with her at her first glance.

It was as if a single flower bud had bloomed in her life, which was completely bleak without any interest in anything.

Such feelings gave Nyathan's life, which is always dry, a goal.

Her...

The goal is to occupy the same existence as that beauty crystal with the name of Elisa.

And as a part of that, Nyadan devoted herself to combat training and career, which she was not very interested in. In the process, a natural talent that she was unaware of herself was revealed

. I came to a position where I could naturally get to know Elisa, who I had been doing, as a 'colleague'.

So, Nyathan succeeded in becoming Elisa's friend as she had always wanted.

She thought her job was half-successful at the point she put her feet up like this, though she had not yet been actively appealing to her because of her timid personality she possessed.

In fact, Nyathan, who was already building a relationship that was comparable to Elisa and her friends, to the extent that she often dine together and hang out alone.

But.

In the last few days,

something really unexpected took place in Nyathan's plan, which was going so smoothly.

'Warrior… How dare a stone that I don't know where it came from rolls in and gets in my way...'

A hero who appeared next to Elisa from a certain moment.

The moment she saw Elisha with him, Nyathan was instantly recognizable.

It is the fact that in Elisha's heart now, she has the feeling of her love for the hero.

For Nyathan, who had always aimed to capture Elisha's body and mind, this was absolutely unacceptable.

In fact, as he watched that filthy warrior flirting with Elisa just before, Nyathan felt a twisted anger, and in order to suppress it, he had to get out of there with all his might.

However, suppressing emotions like this is only a workaround.

In this regard, even at this moment, Nyathan was sharply sharpening the blade of his wrath against that filthy warrior and looking for an opportunity to punish him.

And that opportunity...

It was supposed to be the best stage of the Narsil Selection Match, which is coming soon.

'I don't particularly like stressful fights, but once I'm serious about it, I don't lose to anyone. Warrior… I'll definitely trample your dirty nose.'

EP.72 Even if we all have to die.

A time of gloomy darkness.

A figure, clad in a black robe, quietly hid his body across the road of Zeerusalem.

Shortly thereafter, he arrived in a dark basement where

four people, including him, were waiting in secret.

Although the colors are slightly different, they are all hiding in robes.

However, nevertheless, the person who had just entered the room looking at them like this felt a deep sense of relief and asked carefully.

"Is everything okay?"

"Of course, it came in very neatly, without being pursued."

To the person wearing the black robe, the person who was guarding the entrance or wearing a gray robe answered by locking the door.

They lowered their voices and spoke in a cautious voice.

Although this place was a closed basement room, nonetheless, the four of you were paying attention to whether or not someone might hear their voices.

"Good job, you made it this far safely."

"You have been through a lot by yourself, so it must not have been easy to gather information in the middle of the enemy line."

"It's all thanks to this item. Thanks to this guy, I was able to disguise myself as a demon whenever I was in danger."

A colleague who lowered his voice like that and showed a slight smile on his lips.

Immediately after that, the man wearing a reddish-brown robe, who appeared to be the leader of the group, coughed a little and spoke in a calm voice.

"By the way, how did the investigation go? It was something I felt on the way, but I think I heard there was an event."

"Yeah, that's right. Right now, here in the Demon Kingdom, it's a crazy situation to hold a contest to decide what kind of Narcil or Nazirite is. In particular, it is said that before the victory, the atmosphere is even hotter."

"Narsil, I've heard of it. It seemed like a kind of martial arts contest where the best warriors of the Demon Kingdom were elected."

The person wearing the gray robe to the party's competition spoke with a serious voice, and the person wearing a black robe answered this with a nod of his head.

"Yeah, that's right.

But it's safe to say that it's not just a martial arts competition, but actually a wealth of money. Right now, there are a lot of street vendors in front of this place, and high-

ranking demons from other regions are also coming for sightseeing."

"indeed… Somehow, it seemed that the boundaries were very loose, but there must be a reason."

"Of course, that's all about the inside of the city, and in reality, the boundaries for our target have been further strengthened."

At the words of the man in black robes, those present nodded heavily.

And immediately after that, the leader of the group, a figure in a reddish-brown robe, spoke in a serious voice.

"But it doesn't matter. As everyone knows, we are now gathered here as the last hope of the entire continent. No matter what happens, you must succeed."

"of course. For the sake of peace on the continent, we must do so."

"Even if we all have to die… "

"Continuing the maintenance of former warrior Ellen Savior-sama… I will definitely strike the demon king on the head."

They say one word at a time with a determined determination.

The man wearing a maroon robe then nodded his head and spoke as he looked at the map of the city spread out in front of him.

"According to the information, the

Demon King is usually staying here in the heavily fortified Demon King Castle, but I was

told that he was supposed to watch the match personally in the arena here during the tournament. For us, it's practically the only opportunity."

"But be careful. No matter how lax the security, I heard that the SS guarding the Demon King is a formidable force."

"Besides, there may be monsters in the arena with powers we never thought possible. Depending on the situation, you might be caught before even starting."

"I mean, this is a kind of gamble. A gamble to risk our lives to get the devil's head... "

To be honest, an assassination attempt on the Demon King, which can be said to be a particularly high-risk task among gambling.

But, nevertheless, at this moment they had already decided to go all-in on this dangerous board.

Now that the racial union has collapsed and the spirit of civil war is clearly felt,

for those who are in a situation where there is virtually no turning back,

this is the moment.

It could only be said that this was the only way to choose.

*

Thousands of people gathered at the venue.

As I watched the thousands of demons filling the arena reminiscent of the Colosseum, I began to feel a little tension in my heart.

"this… Greater than you thought? The atmosphere is no joke than what I heard from the story."

"Well, yes.

It has been one of the most important events of the Demon Kingdom from the beginning, and the atmosphere of the victory is getting even hotter. So

, from that point of view, it definitely feels hotter than the last competition 40 years ago."

Elisa casually tells a story from a long time ago in a voice that is natural to my words.

Looking at this, I was able to recognize once again the fact that, although it is surprising, she is very much older than she seems.

'Well, right now, it's said that our Demon Lord is older than Elisa, but I can't help but be a little perplexed every time I hear this story... '

With that thought in mind, I started to look around the crowds of demons who filled the spectators once again.

To be honest, at this moment, I hardly had any concerns or burdens about the game itself.

Right now, I was the one who possessed the fighting power to defeat even the Demon King, who is the strongest of the Demon Kingdom.

Overwhelming strength and amount of mana. And right after coming to this world, from the very familiar yet natural combat skills and senses.

Although

the spirit contained in this body was me, it was

safe to say that there were few elements that I could lose in this selection battle as the software part of the battle had the same as that of a warrior.

However, apart from this aspect, it was true that fighting with a lot of people's attention was inevitably burdensome in many ways.

Even on the battlefield, he received the attention of many enemies, but that and this have a completely different feeling.

Doing something in front of people who looked at me with vague expectations and excitement was unfamiliar to me in many ways.

'I'm not the type to be nervous about things like this, but I can't help but feel a lot of pressure.'

However, apart from these feelings, I had no intention of putting on a great match that lived up to their expectations.

I just do my best to wield the sword at the opponent in front of me.

As it was a place where I came to show my strength and be recognized for it, I did not have the energy to show the

so-called 'fan service' or splendid 'direction'.

'Well, in a way, showing overwhelming power can be fan service, but...' With

that thought in mind, my eyes turned to the special room located at the top of the venue.

Immediately after that, the figure of the Demon King began to come into my eyes.

Wearing a veil as she had at a banquet the other day, she was slowly looking around the stadium.

And looking at her like this.

Once again, I began to prepare myself for the future in my heart.

'I have to show my cool side. As a lover... I will achieve a perfect victory so as not to disappoint the Demon King."

After thinking like that, I just turned my gaze away from the competition hall.

At this moment too, I started looking at the people behind me.

A group of warriors sitting in a place that could be called a waiting room.

Some of them automatically entered the finals with proven skills to some extent, such as Nana and Elisa.

A significant number of these were those who reached this position after passing the preliminaries.

'There are a lot of guys who didn't even have a name in the original. At least the commanders of the corps and the bodyguards can measure their skills to some extent, but... What about those guys?'

The so-called recluse masters were everywhere, and this was particularly evident in a world where the power of this individual could amount to thousands of forces.

So only with that part in mind for the part about the risk.

My gaze began to turn to the place where the match table had just been posted on the wall.

"Let's see… My first opponent was... Are you a newcomer?"

Elisa nodded while looking at the name on the draw.

For sure, it was the first time I had seen her opponent, who knew almost all the names of the characters in the original.

"I'm also a newbie… It might be fun."

Immediately after that, with the feeling of not knowing when he appeared, another character's dry voice comes from right next to him, and

there is an emoticon... .

No, the corps commander Samuel was looking up at the match with a ●△● expression on his face.

She said, 'Are certain talented people adding newcomers as a part of it? I don't know if there is a seed-like rule here too. Then maybe I... '

With that thought in mind, I continued to look up where my name was.

But then...

"Your first opponent is me. Warrior."

"… !"

The next moment I heard a woman's voice from behind me.

There, the four heavenly kings of the bodyguards wearing the golden armor that I had seen before.

Nyathan was standing there, radiating a sign of momentum and so on.

EP.73 A fake that professes the name of the hero!

Demons caught in the crucible of excitement with cheers

As he passed secretly between them, wearing a black robe, he carefully looked around the arena.

'After all, I was expecting it to some extent, but the defense is very strict... It would not be too difficult to enter the Jeonggong method with this.'

However, he was a nobleman compared to the Demon King, which was not normally accessible.

But,

At this moment, around the Demon King, located in the VIP seat of the stadium, two strong men with formidable skills were waiting with their eyes wide open.

In addition, the guards around them also seem not to be of ordinary skill, so if you approached them carelessly, there was a very high possibility that they would do nothing and be cut off.

In addition, considering the fighting power of the Demon King, who had even been cut down by the previous warrior, Ellen, the situation was bound to feel even more bleak.

and,

so that…

He and his companions, wearing black robes, were in a situation where they rolled their heads as much as possible to maximize the odds of a rattle.

'The situation will be after the match is a little more ripe, but... Still, I have no choice but to pay close attention because I don't know if there will be any variables.'

Disguised as an ordinary spectator as much as possible, wearing a black robe, he watched the match that began in front of his eyes.

-"The first round of the finals is a battle between Nyathan of the Four Heavenly Kings of the National Guard, as many of you know, and the famous black warrior these days!"-

Demons who introduce players with a magically amplified voice.

As he listened to his words, he who wore the robe was automatically forced to frown slightly.

At this moment, what began to appear before his eyes were two fully armed warriors standing in the middle of the arena.

One was wearing gleaming golden armor and holding a sword,

The other side was holding a huge sword with its whole body covered in black armor.

A scene that lets you know who is called the Black Hero at a glance.

However, apart from that fact, at this moment, he had no choice but to frown upon seeing that black armor in front of him.

'A black hero... Is there any existence among the demons that imitates a hero like us? Hearing his name, he seems to be some kind of fake warrior... '

With that thought, he looked at the figure of that black warrior and began to feel that a fake like me was an insult to a true warrior.

within the tribal union,

A hero means the best warrior who risked his life to kill the demon king and infiltrated the demon kingdom.

Of course, depending on the point of view, it can be said that it is a grandiose term for an assassin whose purpose is simply to cut off the snake's head.

but nevertheless

The name of a warrior who was chosen by God was never easy, and in fact, among ordinary citizens, a warrior beat the demon king's neck and brought peace.

There were many who had some kind of faith that they would bring.

'In that sense... The hero Ellen, who went right up to the death of the Demon King, could be said to be a hero of the continent. Although he failed because of those filthy traitors... '

In the Falcon Empire, the hero Ellen was officially declaring that he was defeated as a result of a battle against the Demon King.

However, in response to this, the Elf Kingdom announced that it was all because of the dirty betrayal of those who belonged to the Hero Party.

And in relation to the differing opinions of these two factions, he and his companions, wearing black robes, were convinced that the words of the Elven State were right.

'The hero Ellen-sama is fighting the Demon King? It can't be... If he knew even the slightest bit of his strength, he wouldn't be able to say something like that, right?'

I experienced firsthand how strong Ellen was in the past,

At the same time, as someone who knows what his personality is like,

Wearing a robe, he was confident that Ellen would never have been defeated by the Demon King in vain.

'Please watch over me, warrior. We will surely carry on your maintenance and bring peace to the continent. Surely that evil demon king's neck... '

With that thought in mind, he also thought that it would be nice to be able to take the head of that fake hero if the opportunity arises, and he decided to quietly watch the level of the fake warrior's skills.

'Did you say that your opponent is one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the SS? It doesn't really matter who wins... If anything, would you like to step on that guy who blasphemed the hero's name to the point where it's really hard?'

*

Nyathan stares coldly at the hero Ellen, who is standing in front of him with a weapon in his hand.

From the start of the finals, I faced a guy who was quite formidable, but

Nevertheless, Nyathan was thinking that things were going to be better.

'They say there is recovery magic, but still, it would be better to stick with it in perfect condition if possible. In order to thoroughly punish the man who dares to covet my Elisha without fear... '

She knew well that the warrior had considerable fighting power and had played a major role in the last war.

However, she did not consider this to be a credible story, as rumors are often inflated on the battlefield.

In addition, from the standpoint of having superior combat power than other SS colleagues,

Nyathan did not have the thought that he would lose, no matter how good he was.

'The guy who was beaten by the Demon King... Of course, I heard that he was hiding his power to some extent, but there's no reason why I can't win because I can fight him to some extent.'

So, of course, not to be vigilant, but at the same time, with the thought that there is no need to be depressed.

Nyathan said, looking at the man who was pointing his sword in this direction, straightening his sword.

"Be careful. Warrior."

"Go ahead."

There is no need for long conversations with each other.

After a short conversation, the two of them began to pour magical energy into their weapons as they were.

and…

-Pak!!!!

The next moment, the two of them rushed towards each other and wielded their weapons.

As the enormous force collided head-on, in the center of the stadium, an instantaneous tremendous wind pressure began to rise.

"This… what… "

"Just by hitting a weapon like this… '

A clash of power so intense that even the audience can feel it.

The weapons of the two people making a bizarre sound and sparking.

The tension began to fill the hall as the two were facing each other with pure strength and power.

at that time.

"! I… Look over there!"

"Nyathan-sama is being pushed!"

For a moment, the balance of power seems to be out of balance, and Nyathan begins to push back.

As a result, the faces of the many demons who were expecting her victory as a member of the SS began to instantly feel embarrassed.

at that time…

"Huh huh… "

"!"

Nyathan lets out a short laugh.

At the same time, the hero hurriedly tried to pull back, as if he had noticed something too late.

But before his reaction, the number that Nyathan was preparing was moving faster.

Contrary to appearance,

What Nyathan was aiming for was not an honest workshop like this from the beginning...

"late."

-Kwagwagwang!!!!

In the next moment, a loud explosion occurred suddenly at the same time as Nyathan's shout.

As a result, dust suddenly spewed out from the center of the stadium, and the spectators who were watching it were instantly engulfed in embarrassment.

"ね!..."

"What… what?"

"explosion?"

An unexpected event occurred between the two people who were clashing swords.

However, at this moment, Elisa, who was watching this, began to show a slight bitter smile on her lips.

"Haha.. is it going to be like this? Anyway, it's a bad taste, so that guy."

"Is that explosion… a dust explosion?"

"yes? how did you know?"

In response to Elisha's words, Samuel asks a question in a cautious voice.

Elisha responded with a slightly surprised expression to this.

"Just guessing. Just before the explosion. There was something like dust floating around Nyathan."

"Ummm… indeed… "

In the case of Elisha, it was easy to recognize Nyathan's ability as he knew it, but in the case of Samuel, he was able to figure it out at once with a simple glance.

Therefore

Elisa had no reason to believe that, even though Samuel was younger than her, she was in the position of commander of the corps, which was considered a higher rank than the SS.

Recognizing that there was, he began to raise his awareness of her even further.

The reason why a woman named Samuel was able to get up there was not simply because of her beautiful beauty, which was in perfect shape.

'According to the draw, we were supposed to fight Mama and then fight this guy... I don't know if I'll be able to get there, but I'll have to be careful first.'

With that thought in mind, Elisa turned her gaze to the stadium again.

Immediately after that, her eyes began to see the figure of a warrior who had begun to appear in the smoke.

Although the damage was reduced by dodging at that moment, the damage was not so much as the armor was damaged to some extent.

Seeing the figure of the warrior who ate one shot at the beginning like that, Eligar automatically began to speak in her mind.

'I want you to win... If possible. I want you to knock me down with your hand, not someone else's.'

EP.74 You won't be able to get away with this

"It's quite fair. You can take my blow with just that much damage."

"Chi… "

A figure of a warrior standing with damage to his armor.

Looking at this, Nyathan spoke in a voice that had a similar force, but he was automatically biting his tongue in his heart.

'Shh... If it had been hit with a direct hit, it would have done quite a bit of damage, but did you dodge it in an instant? I expected it to some extent, but I'm still not a good guy.'

If it had been a decent opponent, it would have been over with just one blow, but, as expected, the hero did not look like he was worthy of his name.

However, Nyathan was not particularly discouraged by this situation.

What she did just before was just the first embroidered.

The real battle could actually start from now.

"one thing… I want to ask you something."

"what?"

Nyathan suddenly asks a question.

To this, the hero responded with a harsh voice,

Seeing him like that, Nyathan asked a question with a little sincerity.

"What do you think of that person, Elisha?"

"Elisa?"

A hero who shows a slightly surprising reaction to Nyathan's question.

At this, the hero asked her with a questioning voice.

"Why is that story… why is it here?"

"That's why I… sound... Because I am her friend. You and her seem to be getting along pretty close these days, can't you just not care about her as her friend?"

"…even so, I don't think it's a story worth talking about in battle."

"Answer me. Wouldn't that be a long time?"

Nyathan maintains a stubborn attitude at the words of the hero who is trying to avoid answering.

To this, the hero let out a small sigh and responded with a feeling that there was nothing he could do about it.

"I think of you as a friend. Not so special... One of my regular friends."

"friend… nine?"

Nyathan begins to show a slightly meaningful reaction to the hero's words.

Looking at her like that, the hero said to her with an attitude that he didn't want to waste any more time talking.

"If the answer is yes, let me continue. I have no intention of wasting any more time here."

With those words, the warrior straightens the sword and prepares for an attack.

But…

Seeing such a hero, at this moment, a deep smile began to form on Nyathan's lips, covering his face with a helmet.

'Win.'

*

The moment I spoke to the hero,

Nyathan was constantly repeating his calculations for victory while having a conversation.

'Currently, the distance between him and me is about 5m, so that's enough... '

Immediately after measuring the distance from him, Nyathan uses magic to secretly sprinkle powder.

The dust explosion, the attack method she uses, is done by creating small particles of powder that are invisible to the eye, enveloping the opponent and detonating them.

However, in the situation just before the explosion, the density of the powder needs to be increased instantaneously, so the powder can be checked with the naked eye for a moment, but the moment you recognize this, the ignition has already started.

So, Nyathan continued a short conversation with the hero in order to spread the invisible touch of death that was flowing from her body.

and… The hero's action to stop the conversation as soon as it was finally completed.

immediately after that,

"If you want!"

"!"

Instead of waiting for such a hero to attack, Nyathan made a surprise attack towards the hero from this side.

But.

"ね!"

-hook!

In the next moment, instead of blocking the sword she swung, the warrior chooses to evade by pulling back.

It seems that he was predicting that an explosion would occur when Nyathan and his sword collided, and this was true to some extent.

Inevitably, some embers were needed to trigger the dust explosion, and Nyathan just used the embers created during a battle between the hero and her Unwoldo as a means of this.

In that sense, it could be said that it was a fairly wise choice for the hero, who seemed to be drowning in the swamp of invisible dust at this moment, to evade her attack...

At this moment, Nyathan's lips automatically began to bloom with a smile of plasticity.

'I'm sorry, but you can't just cause an explosion just by hitting a weapon.'

The powder she had prepared at this moment in the first place was not floating here.

The position is where the hero retreats while dodging her attack...

It was exactly the point Nyathan had predicted.

Immediately after confirming that, Nyathan releases magic from his fingertips and shoots at the hero.

In simple terms, it was the level of firing a small magic bullet that did not do much damage, and it was clear that if it was hit, it would not do much damage to the hero.

However, this is only limited to the power of the magic bullet itself.

In fact, the phenomenon that occurred as a catalyst was

never… It wasn't that light.

"!"

- Kwagwang!!

A loud explosion sound is heard again as it is ignited by a magic bullet.

Unlike the previous one, as it was quite far away, this explosion did not require force control for safety.

together

An attack that could not withstand any opponent and was killed by shattering as it is.

As it chains up,

In an instant, black and red smoke began to cover the sky inside the stadium.

The smoke of death that blooms like a single flower.

As I watched the scene of the dazzling explosion that occurred in front of my eyes,

Nyathan automatically began to feel the emotion of an instinctive fluttering from the depths of his heart.

'Certainly... I don't like fighting, but I can never give up on this feeling.'

Battle and struggle...

It was Nyathan who hated not being able to get a good night's sleep due to the stress caused by such things.

But, nevertheless, at this moment, Nyathan, as always, was feeling ecstasy and excitement as he watched the explosion that was taking place in front of his eyes.

The fire of death that consumes everything.

Looking at it, Nyathan felt a thrilling ecstasy and was sure of his victory.

'Unlike just before, I entered exactly, this is the end of the game. No matter how great I am, I can't get through this and be safe.'

In addition to that, it wasn't just a simple attack, it was a blow that was accurately inserted into the hero who was engulfed in embarrassment for a moment and was retreating.

In such a situation, it was almost impossible to avoid it, no matter how brave it was.

'With this kind of firepower, in the worst case, even if you don't die, you'll get a fatal injury. To be honest, I wish I could just die like this... '

Although he used the expression "friend", he did not deny that he was close to Elisa.

In this regard, Nyathan was looking at the flames in front of him with a lifelike expression on his face, thinking that it would be good to eliminate any unforeseen events.

at that time…

"uh?"

"after… "

The next moment, as the smoke inside the stadium disappeared, the hero appeared.

The armor that had just been crumpled has become almost rags,

There were tan marks all over his body.

But,

Nevertheless, at this moment...

There were no visible injuries to his body.

The figure of a warrior walking out intact even after being hit by an explosion.

The moment I saw this,

Nyathan's face automatically began to show a deep embarrassment.

'Uh... how is this? I just got hit with it and there's no way I'll be fine... how… How the hell...'

The figure of a warrior who is not so good even though he was directly hit by an attack with his sincerity.

But, before she even thought about it.

The warrior started running towards this side with his sword intact.

"ね!"

Nyathan is desperately trying to fix Eonwoldo and defend his attack as it is.

By the way…

-Gang!!

"uh?"

A heavy shock felt the next moment.

Despite the defense, the pain and tingling sensation he felt began to sweep over Nyathan's body.

'What… What's this? Uh... how is this?'

It's a different kind of blow from the previous clash.

Recognizing that even though there was only one clash, he was literally being pushed out of power.

-hook!

Then, as it is, the hero's blow once again flies towards Nyathan.

In this situation where the shock from the previous blow still hasn't gone away,

Nyathan quickly fled, realizing that it was impossible to defend it.

and…

-bang!!!

A huge explosion that occurs at the same time as the hero's strike falls

A shock wave comparable to Nyathan's dust explosion swept through the area.

At this, Nyathan began to feel a cooling sensation in one side of his chest as he pulled himself back with all his might.

'If I had been hit like that, I would... .'

The transcendent physical strength of a hero beyond imagination.

The fact that there is nothing special, simply wielding a sword with magical powers, can generate power comparable to her magic,

Nyathan finally

This guy in front of me...

She realized that she was a monster that far exceeded her expectations.

'no way… You mean I wasn't the only one who was cheating?'

PS: Samuel

EP.75 Flat Dealer Buying

Nyathan shows embarrassment at my sincere blow.

Seeing this, I started putting a small smile on my lips even though I couldn't see it because of the helmet.

'I'm sorry, but even if it looks like this, it's because I have a body that can defeat even the Demon Lord. No matter how much damage I take, there is nothing that I can lose.'

His magic using the dust explosion was definitely great.

Also, it is possible to feed a surprise attack without the opponent noticing it.

Its power was also enough to turn dozens of people into powder at once if they were well united.

An ability that is useful in many ways in terms of its strategic value.

But,

Apart from this great ability,

Having been attacked by the guy by surprise, I was able to recognize one fact.

Basically, for me, who has almost the highest defense, Nyathan's attacks once or twice are just enough to hit me.

In fact, even though I was hit by an attack with more power than the first strike, I didn't take much damage except for the damage to the armor.

Of course, her attack should never be taken lightly, as it was enough to damage the top-notch armor the Demon King had provided.

'It's enough to make your armor tattered with just two hits. If you hit it without thinking about it, it's going to take quite a bit of damage. Of course, I never intend to leave it like that.'

To be honest, from the first time I met my sword, I could take down Nyathan if I wanted to.

Of course, it would be difficult to get a hit, but if he unilaterally beat him with sincerity to prevent him from doing other tricks, he would have simply brought victory.

However, despite this, he deliberately allowed the attack in order to understand how powerful Nyathan's magic was and what weaknesses he had.

In addition, it is because I thought that it would be much better to achieve this while showing overwhelming power if I ever had a victory.

'But even considering that, that guy is not normal. I thought I could put an end to it with just one hit, but defending it again... '

Although it was almost impossible to defeat me, Nyathan's fighting power was certainly not negligible.

It actually pushed me to this point,

The fact that she had somehow defended against the blow she had just hit could be said to be a sufficient level of fighting power.

I'm not joking right now, my current fighting power is enough to blow up 200 scoundrels by holding each and swinging the sword once.

The mere fact that he defended an attack with such tremendous power was enough to acknowledge Nyathan's fighting power.

The problem is just

It was just that I was too strong against him.

'There is no special attack method like that guy's dust explosion, but even without that, the specs are so stupid.. Anyway, shall we end this slowly with this?'

As it is reckless to use more explosive attacks than this, I decided to finish it without putting mercy in my hands.

*

A warrior who shows tremendous power just by swinging his sword.

In this regard, Nyathan had to focus on avoiding his attacks with all his might.

- Kwagwagwang!!!

"Awesome!!!"

The ground explodes with every swing of the sword,

Even a simple shock wave that was not hit directly caused Nyathan's whole body to suffer tingling damage.

What was even more shocking was the fact that the warrior's movement speed was one order of magnitude higher than that of Nyathan, even with such a relentless attack.

'damn! What kind of monster is this... Isn't that guy tired? I've only heard rumors about it, but this is more than that!'

Nyathan begins to feel deep regret for the fact that he saw the other person so lightly.

But,

Aside from these feelings, at this moment, she was still not giving up.

The move of the hero, who unleashed an attack without hesitation, was terrifying.

In fact, even at this moment, she was blocking the hero's attack by holding up the Eonwoldo to the point of avoiding the hero's attack by a single sheet of paper, or risking damage if it was not decided.

The terrible pain she feels every time and her arms are slowly getting messed up.

Not only had the muscle already ruptured, but the right arm, which was the most burdened, had cracked bones.

If you try to block his sword once or twice like this, your arm will break first.

But,

Nevertheless, Nyathan was aware of the already tattered armor.

The fact that, in the current situation, if you can feed him an explosion, you will surely have a chance.

However, unlike before, it was by no means easy to give a blow to a man who was running at a frightening speed while moving.

Due to the nature of the dust explosion, preparation was necessary in advance, so it was necessary to tie up the opponent to some extent, so it could not be reached with a normal attack.

'However… It's not that there aren't a lot of ways, but it's something that might get me involved too.'

Depending on the situation, it is a means to even think of a comrade.

But…

Nevertheless, at this moment, Nyathan had already hardened his heart.

If it was a simple enemy, the person in front of him is an abomination that shakes the heart of Elisha he loves.

If he could express his love by giving him one shot, he thought that would not be a bad ending.

And as a result…

It was at that moment when everything seemed to be ready.

-hook!

The sword of the hero that fell straight towards Nyathan at the next moment.

At this, Nyathan squeezed all the remaining strength and twisted the warrior's sword, wielding the Unwoldo as it was.

A tremendous amount of pain inflicted in an instant.

At the same time,

Nyathan is the same

I let go of the Unwoldo I was holding in my hand.

"uh?"

A hero who lost his balance slightly due to a sudden change in the direction of movement for a moment.

And Nyathan did not miss the gap and dug into it.

"!! What?"

"Caught… all!"

Nyathan embraces the body of the hero with all his might.

There was a momentary embarrassment on the hero's face,

On the other hand, a deep smile began to appear on Nyathan's lips.

and.

"For Elisha… "

-Kwagwagwang!!!!!

Another explosion that occurred around her as it is.

Its power surpassed the previous explosions, and the stadium where the two were located was covered with thick dust.

*

"ね… "

"Ummm… "

A vision obscured by an explosion that occurred in an instant.

Elisa and Samuel, who were watching the match, automatically frowned slightly.

"Nyathan boy… Are you okay?"

"I don't know."

The thick smoke and the reverberation of a hot explosion that you can feel even at this moment.

Looking at it, Elisha began to feel concerned that maybe something had happened to her friend.

Of course, there were some concerns about the hero in her mind, but honestly, it was never that big.

This is because Elisha already knew better than anyone about how absurd a hero is.

And after a while...

In front of Elisha's eyes,

Scenes that did not deviate from her expectations began to appear clearly.

"Great… uh... "

"after."

The scene immediately after the smoke has cleared.

It was a warrior standing wearing rags that remained almost in shape except for the helmet part.

And, it was the figure of Nyathan lying at his feet.

"uh… How is that... "

"To be safe from such an explosion… I've heard rumors, but it can't be that strong... "

In the still blazing flames, the figure of a warrior standing emitting a tremendous sense of intimidation like an immortal god.

Seeing this, the demons felt a heavy sentiment beyond simply looking at the winner of a duel.

"S.. the winner is the black warrior!"

The hero left the arena as it was with the host's declaration of victory.

Immediately after that, Elisha hurriedly jumped off her seat and approached Nyathan, who was lying on the field.

"divination… Are you okay, Nyathan?"

"..Cool..Keep… to… Ellie… shaman.."

The figure of Nyathan looking at this side with his eyes open with difficulty at her words.

Seeing this, Elisha breathed a small sigh of relief, realizing that even though her friend was seriously injured, it was not life-threatening.

"thank god… I was worried that something might happen."

"thing… worry… did... Will? me?"

At Elisha's words, Nyathan's face starts to turn red, perhaps because of the aftermath of his injury.

looking at her like that,

Elisha lifted up her friend's body without hesitation.

Although she was still wearing an unusually heavy golden armor, it was as simple as holding her in the arms of the princess and lifting her with the strength of Elisa, which was already far beyond the normal level.

"!... er... Ellie... "

"Be quiet, I'll take you to the treatment center. anyway… Why are you doing things like you're not? Did you ever want to become Narsil?"

"… no… that… But… "

Nyathan bowed his head at Elisha's words and didn't say anything.

Looking at her like that, Elisa thought that she had to take care of this guy as well, and put a light smile on her lips.

*

Elisa is away for a while to help her friend.

Meanwhile, Samuel, who was sitting next to her, got up from his seat and used magic to climb onto the stadium, which was being restored in an instant.

In both hands, Samuel is wearing a gauntlet, the weapon he mainly uses.

Immediately after that, the image of a newcomer wearing a reddish-brown robe who had passed the preliminary round this time began to enter her eyes…

At the same time, as always, she thought in her mind with one face.

'That's... human?'

EP.76 Must win for the sake of colleagues!

A being who is wearing a reddish-brown robe and holding a sword.

Looking at him, Samuel could instantly recognize that he was a human, not a demon.

'The posture of holding the sword, the quality of the weapon, and, crucially, the magic that hides the true form of the body now worn. That guy must be a human.'

Samuel came to a conclusion in an instant by assembling the intricate details of the information.

But at this moment,

Without immediately revealing the identity of the author in front of her right away, she just slowly clenched her gauntlet fist and straightened herself.

At this moment, she didn't know why humans participated in such a contest, but at least it was clear that it wasn't for good.

In addition, there was a danger that, in some cases, she would become a starting point for them to start a conspiracy based on her making a fuss.

Since you don't know how a rat will run rampant when it's cornered, it's better to just act according to the flow in this situation.

And the flow...

Of course, Samuel was going to continue the battle with the human in front of him very naturally.

'Fight. knock down Once that's it, it's over.'

Immediately after making such a simple conclusion,

Samuel concentrated all his nerves toward the 'enemy' in front of him as he was gathering magic power in the hand wearing the gauntlet.

While wearing silver-white armor all over his body, Samuel was holding a gauntlet wrapped in magical power.

Meanwhile…

Looking at her like that,

The person wearing the maroon robe...

The human warrior bearing the name Hector,

While holding the sword in his hand, he looked at the demon in front of him with cold eyes.

'Is Iza the commander of the demon corps? Indeed, at first glance, he is not an ordinary skillful person. It is different from ordinary demons in terms of the magnitude of the power you feel.'

Hector, who has been dealing with numerous demons so far, has experience taking the necks of general soldiers as well as generals and generals.

But…

Nevertheless, at this moment Hector could recognize that his instincts were sending him a subtle warning.

'I just

Like the Black Hero, and the one called this corps commander, there are a lot of monsters in the demons, even more than we think. boil

In this situation, the emperor of the Falcon Empire is only thinking about war with the Elf Kingdom, an ally... '

Seeing the strength of his opponent, Hector naturally lamented his country's pathetic condition.

At the same time and more so, Hector began to ignite more and more clearly the desire to do what he had to do at this moment.

'Once the plan

In order to proceed smoothly, this battle must be won with certainty. Even though it's called the finals, the match is only at the beginning of the match.

In order to get the most attention from the spectators and guards, we have to make it to the semi-finals at least.'

That way, even if the opponent was the commander of the corps, he never thought about defeat.

Hector began to charge with all his might toward the enemy in front of him.

"Haaaah!!!"

- Kang!

A sharp metallic sound is heard in the next moment.

It was the figure of a corps commander who lightly blocked the sword Hector had struck with his gauntlet.

His actions were so easy to block his strikes that contained considerable magical power.

At this, Hector automatically frowned, but nevertheless, he immediately began pouring an unstoppable attack on the corps commander in front of him.

Immediately after that, a loud bursting sound is heard.

Hector's sword, swaying at a frightening speed as if it were splitting the wind, pounded the opponent's gauntlets with a sharp sound.

Instead of simply swinging a sword, Hector unleashed an attack that felt as if a skilled cook was using vegetables.

at that time…

"!"

-hook!

In the next moment, his gauntlets suddenly started flying towards this side at a speed beyond imagination while embracing the defense.

Hector, whose posture was disturbed because he was pouring an attack, raised his sword in an instant and blocked the attack.

no…

Precisely,

thought it was blocked.

- Kwagwagwang!!!

A terrifying shock felt immediately after that.

At this, Hector felt as if his mind was going to fly away for a moment, and he rolled on the floor as it was.

'ね! this… what is this... Even though he's a corps commander, isn't this a bit harsh?'

No matter how slightly he lost his balance, the commander of the corps who accurately slipped through the cracks and hit a formidable attack in the storm.

Recognizing that his opponent had more power than he had imagined, Hector automatically frowned.

But immediately after that,

Hector became aware that he had no time to lie idly and procrastinate.

"Damn it!"

His gauntlets that fly straight to Hector

In response, Hector released magical power and forcibly got up.

A blow that fell right where he was standing.

An attack with a formidable power that cracks the ground and spatters fragments,

Hector thought that if he had left it blank and then hit him defenselessly, it would certainly not have ended in a stun.

'damn… What's so strong about a petite body? After all, he's the commander of the corps just below the Demon King, isn't it?'

With that thought in mind, Hector narrowly evaded the power that flew straight toward his face.

However, in terms of speed, it's a shame because he's superior, but if even that had been pushed back, there really wouldn't have been an answer.

However, from the standpoint of Hector, who was expecting the only fight to some extent, the current situation was really unexpected.

In the midst of continuing an unfavorable fight that focuses only on evasion.

Hector started looking for a way to turn the current war situation around somehow.

'damn… We can't fall apart like this... even for our colleagues... There's no way I can't go wrong because I'm caught in the footsteps of a corps leader who isn't even the Demon King!'

*

Hector.

There was something he had longed for since childhood.

Warrior.

A powerful being who, in obedience to the will of God, punishes evil and brings justice and peace in this world.

That noble and noble name has always been his dream, ideal, and goal, and for this, he has worked hard to train himself and accumulate knowledge.

And as a result.

Finally, before Hector's eyes, the very 'opportunity' he had longed for...

The opportunity to become the 'hero' I've always longed for has appeared.

The defeat of the hero Ellen, who said that he had received an oracle from the gods.

Immediately after it is confirmed,

Hector, who has always shown outstanding performance as a warrior, was immediately elected as the next hero, and at the same time, his colleagues naturally became a warrior party and were given the mission of eradicating the demon king.

But,

While they were preparing for their expedition in such an excited mood, Hector and his companions were faced with an unexpected, lightning-quick reality.

It started with the fact that the Hero Party was delayed as the relationship between the Falcon Empire and the Elf Kingdom deteriorated in relation to the failure of the hero Ellen.

And the raid from Rob, which occurred immediately after biting his tail,

The news of the tribal union's massive defeat due to the large-scale counterattack of the demons.

Due to this series of events, the tribal union was eventually destroyed and divided, and the decision to retreat was made.

In the process, Hector, who was in the position of receiving the support of the Allied Forces, and his companions of the Braves Party literally became the Nakdong River ducklings.

Although each of them had excellent fighting power enough to be selected for the warrior party, it was not inferior to even returning to their hometown to work as a warrior.

However, at this moment, Hector and his companions never wished for such a future.

Although they are of different races, Hector and his companions have become virtually family-like after spending a long time together.

Beyond the fact that we have to part with them,

The fact that, in some cases, they might face the fate of pointing swords at each other was an unacceptable future for Hector and his companions.

'I'm definitely going to hit the Demon King's neck. We must win for our colleagues!'

like that.

this moment

Thinking about the reasons you can never lose.

Although it is only a name,

He has the name of an incumbent 'hero'...

Hector is

As it was, he began to do his best to find the gap in front of the opponent with all his might.

Fortunately, the opponent's weapon is the gauntlet, which belongs to the axis with many gaps.

If he swung his fist once, he could see a small but cracked hole, but there was a risk that if he got hit by mistake, he could pick it up in one shot.

However, for Hector who had already made up his mind, such a fact was at a level he could accept.

In response, Hector watched the attack of the vicious and powerful corps commander who flew towards him once more until the last minute.

and…

"!"

"Ha ha ha!"

-Pak!

Immediately after dodging an attack flying towards him by a single paper difference, Hector flies a counter as it is.

The sharp sword strike that flew at that high speed hit the helmet that the evil commander was wearing and peeled it off.

'Good! Now, like this, the guy's head... '

With that in mind, Hector is about to attack the opponent's face.

Thinking that no one could stop him at this moment, he poured all his might to grab the victory he had managed to get.

By the way…

"!!.....uh?"

In the next moment, Hector suddenly felt as if his whole body was frozen.

This moment when the attack was launched to strike the enemy's head.

He couldn't even swing his sword towards the face of the opponent in front of him.

'female… Woman?... There... What the hell...'

For an instant, a strange sensation that seemed to wrap his heart intensely.

In a shock that blew away the hostility toward the opponent in front of him, Hector had no choice but to stare at her with a blushing expression on his face.

and,

As a result of the gap that was created in reverse...

- Pak!

EP.77 I will support you, Elisa
