Chapter 156 – Bless This Wonderful World (13)
“Hey! I can’t help it! I don’t know if it’s a demon lord’s executive or what, but it was unlucky for me to appear while I was there. You’re asking me to purify you for coming out at such a bright hour when the power of the undead is weakening! It’s because of you that serious quests don’t happen! Come on, did you make up your mind?”
Megumin treated Aqua as a teacher, and as if she didn’t hate it, she came forward to Dyurahan.
No, it was rather exciting.
Aqua held out a hand to Dyurahan while receiving the gazes of the adventurers watching her while holding her breath.
Seeing this, Dyurahan put his head forward toward Aqua as if he was interested.
“Oh, not just a Priest, but an Arch Priest? However, this body is one of the officers of the Demon King’s Army with absolute power. It wasn’t corrupted enough to be purified by a low-level Arch Priest at this distance. Besides, the measures against the Arc Priest were taken in the first place. But, well, just for fun, let’s harass the Crimson Demon girl once.”
Dyurahan slipped out the index finger of his left hand to Megu Ming faster than Aqua could chant magic.
And Dyurahan quickly shouted.
“Death sentence to you! You will die in a week!!”
Dyurahan fired a curse.
It was then.
The reason why Seojun blocked Megumin’s way.
“Keugh…”
A curse wrapped around Seo-jun.
Seo-jun’s body was covered with dull black aura.
“Uh?! Seo, Seojun!!”
Megumin exclaimed in surprise.
I never thought he would come forward.
“Seojun, are you okay!? Do you have any pain anywhere?”
Aqua panicked and approached him.
In response, Seo-jun opened and closed his hands several times as if to check them.
“… Hmmm, are you okay?”
Seo Joon speaks very calmly.
I didn’t really feel anything special.
But Dyurahan definitely shouted.
He said he would die in a week.
‘That must be true.’
Because it was like that in the original.
But Seo-joon was not worried.
He was a curse that he could break with his own strength, and more than anything else, he had Aqua.
Goddess.
Absolute divinity that purifies all evil.
However, it was different for other party members who did not know that she was a goddess.
“June!”
“Seojun!”
Darkness and Chris came to his side in a hurry.
Both eyes were full of worry.
‘Oh.’
To be surrounded by beautiful girls and to be worried about you is a luxury.
By the way…
Glance-
Seojun spilled Megumin.
“Ahhh…”
Megumin was looking at Seojun, her eyes trembling like crazy.
It seems that he was greatly shocked by the fact that Seo-joon was cursed while covering himself.
‘Good.’
Seojun smiled inwardly.
The current situation was very, very good.
Because,
‘This will make it easier to attack Megumin.’
She is the one who had a crush on him from the beginning.
But she threw herself into danger instead.
She must be happy, but also feel guilty.
Even though her behavior is strange, if she uses that feeling of Megumin, who has a girlish sensibility inside, she will be able to make her his prisoner more easily.
“Just in case, I’ll take a look!”
While Aqua fumbled with the cursed Seo-jun, Dyurahan proudly declared.
Haha!!! The curse does not show any symptoms. But over time, things change! It’s a little different from the plan, but I think this way will rather work for you adventurers, who have a strong bond with each other. Are you okay, Crimson Demon Girl? At this rate, that archer will die in a week. Kkeuk, your precious comrades will be terrified and tormented by the fear of death until then… Yes, it’s all your fault! A week from now, you’d better regret your actions while watching your colleagues suffer. Haha, I wish I could have heard what I was saying honestly!”
At Dyurahan’s words, Megumin’s complexion turned blue.
“Because of me…”
Megumin blamed herself.
In the end, all of this happened because of you.
In other words, it is all his fault that Seo-joon is in danger of dying.
The fact that the person she had a crush on from the beginning was in danger of dying because of her was still quite a burden for a young girl to handle.
‘Shall we go soon?’
Seojun, who had been watching quietly, moved.
What he wanted was obsession, not exhaustion.
“No. It’s not because of Megumin.”
Turuk-
Seojun put his hand on Megumin’s shoulder, who was in panic.
The trembling red eyes captured Seo-joon.
“I’m fine. So don’t worry.”
Smile-
Seojun smiled and wiped the tears from Megumin’s eyes.
He even said
“Rather, the cause is that guy.”
Seojun pointed at Dyurahan.
Dyurahan responds to him.
“Hoo. It is admirable how you think of your colleagues.”
“It is true. Because you cursed me.”
“Hmm, I hope you correct that statement. In the end, the reason I came out of this place is because that girl hit the castle with explosion magic.”
“No. It’s a problem you wouldn’t have had if you weren’t in that castle in the first place.”
“… Haha, that’s right!! The way you think of your colleagues is truly admirable.”
“Of course.”
“I want to lift the curse, but it’s no fun. If you come to my castle within a week, I will lift the curse and let you go safely.”
“Is it really necessary?”
“What?”
Seojun grinned.
“Even if the medium that applied the curse disappears, it will be lifted.”
“… Are you saying that you are going to defeat this body, one of the officers of the Demon King’s Army?”
“Uh.”
“Hmm, Arthur. I have good momentum, but I’m not the kind of person who would be beaten by beginners. Are you even going to commit suicide? You should know how to save your life for the sake of your comrades. Stop being reckless. You will never be able to defeat me anyway.”
Dyurahan stopped Seo-joon.
Seo-joon made a surprised expression at the guy’s worried behavior.
“Well, you have to tell me how long and short you need to know.”
Chuck-
He aimed his bow
“You don’t think you can take me down with just an arrow, do you?”
“If that’s right, you know?”
“Under!! That’s funny. Then try it sometime If only that meager arrow could pierce this armor bestowed by the Demon King himself!”
“Do you keep that word?”
Sigh.
Seojun with an evil smile activated his skill.
Coo goo goo-
The surrounding air shuddered.
A mighty wind gathers in front of him.
Condensed, it gathered into spheres and continued to swirl.
“… Huh?”
Dyurahan widened his eyes at the unusual phenomenon.
A trickle of cold sweat runs down the face of the guy in the helmet.
“Now, wait a minute.”
“You won’t withdraw your remarks as a knight, right?”
Oh oh oh-
The compressed sphere soon took the form of an elongated arrow.
I hung it on a bow and drew a string.
Kiriric-!!!
The protests pulled to the limit screamed.
“Then take it.”
He let go
Then, the pulled string returned to its original position, generating tremendous tension.
At the same time,
Kwaaaaang-!!!!!
A riot rang out.
A gust of wind blew in all directions.
People lose control and stumble or fall.
Dyurahan, who was hit by such an attack,
“Aaaaagh!!!”
It flew tens of meters and was rolling on the floor.
Dyurahan stretched out to a large (大) character thought.
‘Keuuugh, this arrow of tremendous power. And wind! That archer must be… !’
Stormbringer.
It must have been the job of the archer of the warrior party who once defeated the demon king in the past.
‘I have to kill him!’
Before meeting the hero!
Dyurahan stood up.
After becoming undead, his legs trembled from the pain he felt for the first time.
Upon checking his chest, there was significant damage to his armor.
‘The armor that blocks explosion magic is broken?’
He was dismayed
The armor that could withstand explosion magic could only be broken by an arrow.
After all, that one must be killed now!
“Oh, did you get through that? You are strong.”
“…”
A relaxed look.
Judging from his appearance, it was clear that the attack just now was at a level that the man could repeat over and over again.
Only then did Dyurahan and Verdia realize.
‘Ah, that one can’t win.’
Action was quick.
Realizing that he couldn’t win, he didn’t hold back.
Hitting the road without looking back right away!
“?”
Seojun blinked.
The other party members, as well as the people who were onlookers, watched blankly.
They didn’t know that the Demon King’s army officer who pretended to be so proud would run away.
