Chapter 290 – Chapter 28 – Don’t Get Caught
The trusted defense line has collapsed and the great nobles either flee or surrender.
If not, they would all die and never be seen again.
Thanks to this, the middle aristocrats who believed in them became truly lonely.
At least those who were influenced by the Marquis of Kienmeyer and treated the commoners well, surrendered to the persuasion of the Marquis of Kienmeyer.
On the contrary, those who persecuted the commoners under the rotten nobles were attacked by the commoners inside and chased by the demons outside, so there was nothing they could do.
If you ask me why I didn’t surrender and was being chased like that.
Who is the man next to the Demon King? It is Klaus.
A commander who lost more soldiers to nobles than to demons during the continental war in the past.
He said that he was by the devil’s side, but would anything good happen if they surrendered?
So, now the middle nobles had only one thought.
That in order to survive, they must act and do things again.
There was a way to escape, but it was very difficult, and I also felt unfair inside.
They just followed what the great nobility did.
Since he is an aristocrat above the common people, he naturally exercised his right, so why should it be like this?
While venting such resentment, several nobles secretly gathered and gathered their will.
It is said that the demon king has taken over the castle and goes on an inspection to appease the public.
If they succeeded in assassinating the demon king, the east would collapse in an instant, and they thought that they could become heroes and take the honor of occupying the seats of the great nobles.
While gathering so few knights and enlisted men.
He contacted a soldier in the royal castle he knew somehow and robbed him of all the money he had in order to buy it, and even promised to let him know as soon as the demon king left the palace.
Afterwards, as soon as I received the call that the demon king had come out, I secretly followed him.
Coincidentally, when the demon king entered the territory where more than half of the residents disappeared, he thought it was a perfect situation for an assassination and cheered…
“Ouch! Whoops!”
The man struggled with his tears and runny nose all over his face.
He was rolling on the ground with both arms and legs already severed.
The enlisted men and knights who were guarding the side had already died and were pinned to the ground.
Those who remained had no choice but to tremble like aspen trees in front of the shadow of death approaching every moment.
“I would rather have run away. Then he would at least have a chance to die himself.”
Even though the whole area was full of blood, only Yulia was intact.
Even though she created that cruel bloody whirlpool, she was showing off a very peaceful atmosphere, like a woman who had just come out of the house after tidying up.
Yulia, who slowly approached her with her cynicism, looked down at her.
There lay a nobleman struggling with his limbs severed and bleeding.
I was trying to move, but there was no way that would be possible.
“Hehe, hehe! Sa, please save me Please, please, just save my life.”
“What are you going to do with a life like that? Even if she lived, she wouldn’t have lived. Why don’t she just die? Like nobility.”
“I want to live, I want to live. I’m going to live like this, so please… Kkeuk!”
As if there was nothing more to hear, Yulia thrust the knife straight into his back.
It did not target the lungs or the heart, but only penetrated the flesh and muscles, avoiding major organs.
“Haha! Ahhhhh! Huh!”
“Guys like you have managed to hold on until now. I don’t know if this kingdom is great or the people who live there are great, but one thing is for sure: you don’t need it.”
Quadduk-.
When he twisted the sword lightly, the wound opened and blood gushed out.
The aristocrat beneath him screamed like a beast, crying out for help and salvation.
There were only corpses around here, or worms wriggling with their limbs cut off like that.
“Keep it… Kuck, cool…”
“Okay, next bug.”
Without intentionally cutting her throat and leaving only her mortal wounds, Yulia moved towards the other.
Someone might say it’s cruel, but I don’t feel any remorse.
They are simply those who tried to assassinate themselves, and at a large scale, they are small worms that will harm this land forever.
Insects should be treated appropriately for them. It is rather wrong to treat people.
After causing a bloody affair, when Yulia started cleaning up.
Planche wandered around to see if there were any people trying to escape.
Or, for no reason, the people of the kingdom were thoroughly blocking the surroundings so that they would not see the scene.
Then, he saw a group of knights running from afar.
It was Planche who showed his will to fight for a very short time, but soon after confirming that the person standing in front of him was none other than Darnell Kienmeyer, he jumped and stood in front of them.
“Welcome, Darnell Kienmeyer. I was waiting.”
“Chairman Planche. Why are you alone Where do you put your highness and why…”
“I’m stepping back for a while to avoid being disturbed. You guys can come in a little later. Since His Highness the Demon King is still busy at work, if you go in, you might get angry.”
To this, Darnell Kienmeyer reacted with a sense of absurdity.
The person who summoned her here was none other than Yulia, but the chief chamberlain suddenly blocked her way, so she was contemplating whether she should listen to this or not.
However, he soon realized that the silver-haired demon tribe had always been by the demon king’s side, and after getting everyone off the horse, he looked at the village where he heard a faint sound.
It’s a place that seems to be empty since most of them have left in the aftermath of the war.
Strangely, the fishy smell of blood lingered at the tip of his nose, as if something had happened.
Darnell Kienmeyer, who waited for a moment, moved as if he couldn’t do it anymore.
The closer you get, the thicker the smell of blood becomes, and the whole area is completely crushed as if magic has exploded.
It was Darnell Kienmeyer who, stepping on something, looked down and saw what appeared to be a human arm beneath his feet.
He frowned a little, but soon he cleaned up his facial expression and started walking again.
Then, in the clearing ahead, I was able to find Yulia sitting on a chair and closing her eyes.
“Majesty.”
“Have you come? You came earlier than expected. The chief chamberlain must have told me to wait.”
At Yulia’s words, Darnell Kienmeyer involuntarily lowered his head.
And soon, he could see the last survivor at her feet.
“Key, Marquis of Kienmeyer! Marquis!!”
“…”
“Ah, do you know? Ah. I was wrong. Do you know worms, Darnell Kienmeyer?”
“… I remember him as a noble who had a manor. I can’t remember exactly, but…”
“Marquis! I-I am Baron Heman! I’ve even run into the Marquis a few times! You may not remember me, but I am from the same noble family as you! Help me, please help me!”
“…”
“I don’t want to die. It’s okay to roll around without limbs. Please save me please…”
Like all other corpses, he too had been dismembered.
At Baron Hemann’s scream, Darnell Kienmeyer unconsciously looked at Yulia.
She was slowly stroking my stomach as she yawned and languidly.
Outside of her surroundings, she seemed like a very good mother, literally, just letting the child inside feel a loving touch.
“Danelle Kienmeyer.”
“Yes, Your Highness the Demon King.”
“You seem to be acquainted with this bug. Seeing you cling so earnestly.”
“… As I said, there were only very minor ties.”
“Ah, don’t worry. I’m not trying to interrogate you. Rather, would you like to build your side? Yes. It would be best to think so.”
Do you want to stand up? Darnell Kienmeyer, with an expression that doesn’t understand what that means.
At that, Yulia smiled and continued her words while pressing down on the head of the man under her.
“Isn’t this worm begging for mercy from you, not from me? But if you just take the life of such a person, your side won’t stand out. Honey, I will do as you say.”
“Yes?”
“If you ask me to save you, I will spare you. I can’t help with the limbs that have already been severed, but at least I’ll spare this man’s neck, Darnell Kienmeyer.”
“Ah…”
“So how are you feeling? Do you want to save this person?”
Then, the nobleman who had been wriggling under Yulia’s feet hurriedly stirred her body.
Please save me, ask the demon king for mercy, then I will never forget this grace even if it goes on for the rest of my life.
Baron Heman was praying and praying like that.
“What can I do, Darnell Kienmeyer?”
There was no sign of urging, on the contrary, Yulia was more relaxed.
Still, Darnell Kienmeier felt compelled to come up with an answer quickly.
It was more important than anything else to understand the king’s intentions, why he had suddenly called himself here, and why he was showing himself this way and giving him such a choice.
However, no matter how much she looked at Yulia, she couldn’t understand her intentions.
She had no idea what she wanted, or what kind of answer she had to give to satisfy her.
After thinking about what to do for a while, he decided to just follow something that came to his mind intensely, just like my friend had done.
To be honest, he had never considered the fellow beggar to be a nobleman.
“His Highness the Demon King. I am very impressed that you are willing to extend such mercy. However, I dare to give you a piece of advice in front of him.”
“Tell me.”
“Didn’t you say it was a bug? Worms, like worms, should die.”
“Hmm?”
As much as Klaus, and not as much as the common people of this country.
Even if he was in the same noble position, he was angry and disappointed with those nobles.
They say that they are afraid and beg for salvation while they are paying for their sins?
‘No, no. That’s not it. If I did something wrong, I’m not asking for forgiveness for it. It’s not about making lame excuses, it’s just about taking responsibility. Damn you bastards.’
Because of their shoveling, this country has become this way, is it still like that?
It was pitiful, it was cursed, my teeth trembled and my anger surged up.
He surrendered in his heart, and there was a moment when he thought he was ashamed, but even that disappears altogether.
Who the hell has this kingdom been gnawed by, what have they done, and how.
Are you saying that there is nothing left and only bugs like that remain and beg to be saved?
“I have no desire to associate with that insect, so just do as your Highness the Demon King wishes.”
“… That’s right, bug.”
“Aaaaa!! Key, Marquis of Kienmeyer! Kienmeyer Latter ah! Wow! Kleurup!!”
“Don’t call my servants by their first names. I’m afraid it might get dirty.”
Quadduk!-
Yulia smiles as she cuts through her body with the sword she was holding.
Her flesh splits, her muscles tear and blood leaks out.
A drop of blood smeared on Yulia’s face, and the demon king clicked her tongue.
Then Planche rushed over and quietly held out a handkerchief, and Julia wiped her face with it before slowly getting up from her seat.
“Danelle Kienmeyer.”
“Yes, Your Highness the Demon King.”
“It must have been a lot of trouble. I had to live with those things.”
“… I am amazed too.”
The demon king laughed at Darnell Kienmeyer’s answer and returned the sword he was holding to Planche.
