Chapter 168 – #7. Face to Face and the Truth (7)
“…”
The warrior shut his mouth.
“For mana users, mana is like oxygen. But Earth is a planet with very little mana. It is so rare that even six people can handle it, so it will run out soon.”
“Then… How long until the mana runs out?”
“If you go around the world and absorb all the mana on Earth, it will take about 7 years.
Wandering around the world in search of mana would literally be just a struggle to maintain life. Then, the actual remaining time…
1 year or less.
The hero’s heart sank as if he had been sentenced to death.
Mana is like colorless and odorless oxygen, as the Guardian metaphor says, so there was no way to know how much was left in the world. Even if I could have known, I wouldn’t have noticed. It was always easy to gather mana, so I never dreamed it would be this small. And it was the first time I had heard that without mana you would die right away.
“I just realized that important fact…”
The warrior party’s life on Earth had only filled two years and was entering its third year. If I had to tell you, I could tell you a long time ago, even when I received a wish to return to Earth. Even if I couldn’t give you a solution, at least I could have tipped you off. But the guardian of time and space…
I felt betrayed. I didn’t even expect it from the beginning of the guardian of time and space who always showed an inorganic attitude… Were you just going to let us die? Have you ever intended to do that from the beginning?
Aww
The warrior gritted his teeth. The guardian of time and space was still staring at the hero with a consistent expressionless expression.
“Come on, come on. Sister, that’s it. Let’s talk to me now. I can explain it well too.”
“…”
“Calm down for now. It’s easy to understand because Seong-yul can see that you’re secretly thinking too? Then let’s ask a question. When you made a wish, did you cancel your wish just because you heard these words? Only the demon king died, but the demon king army still remained, and the human The military has also launched an all-out attack on the castle to get rid of you guys? Not even a single person out of six wanted to stay because they liked that world? Rather, they said, “Good job, this filthy world” And moved to another dimension with joy. Didn’t you?”
“That…”
“Huh?”
Kai Sa snorted and tilted her head to the side. It was a gesture as if she was going to refute it. The hero, who couldn’t come up with anything to refute right away, had no choice but to remain silent. As she said, she must have wanted to step foot on her nostalgic homeland rather than be killed on the spot by the demon king’s army or the army of her own people. Even if it’s a life as a terminally ill person who doesn’t live long.
“…But you could have told me. Even after arriving on Earth.”
“So what?”
Even the hero’s small objection was not tolerated by Kaisa. It was as if he was defending the Guardian of Time and Space. As before, she asked, drawing the Guardian of Time’s hand over her disc.
“Hey, Guardian. Is dimensional movement easy for anyone?”
“In principle, no one except me is impossible.”
“Is that so?”
Kai’Sa grinned. She pauses for half a beat, and when the hero is about to say something, she strikes right in.
“Yes, you might think it’s easy since you’ve been through dimension shifting twice. But you know what? Out of billions of Earthlings living on Earth right now, you’re the only one who’s experienced dimension shifting. Women are from that dimension, so leave it out of the question.”
“Then.”
As Kai’Sa shot, the hero asked back. This question was pretty sharp.
“What difference does it make if I know this?”
“Oh, that’s a good question!”
Kai’Sa even clapped and liked it. She even had a deep eye smile as if she was so excited.
“Of course it changes! It’s because I have the will to go to another dimension. Now, I just said. In principle, dimension shifting is impossible. Then how did you move to another dimension? For what ‘justification’?”
“…No way.”
The warrior furrowed his eyebrows. Even if you don’t want to know, you have no choice but to know ‘justice’.
…
–Subdue the demon lord as a hero.
“Yes, that’s right. I am your cause! I am the only rope for you to live.”
“Ha! I’m going crazy.”
“One more thing, just because you have less than a year left, it wouldn’t be a good idea to hold out until the deadline. You won’t die, but your health and physical abilities will noticeably deteriorate as your mana density dwindles. At least one I’ll guarantee you it’ll be fine for a month or so, but I really don’t recommend staying longer than that.”
The warrior touched his forehead. I thought I had overcome a long and long ordeal in the fantasy world and finally lived a peaceful life, but now I have to deal with another demon king. Since the lives of both himself and his lovers were at stake, it was impossible to say no to it.
“Since you’ve told us everything, you should be asking questions, right?”
“What the hell… Why?”
“Huh, the expected question came in.”
“Why on earth are you doing this? We’re no different from enemies. Everything I’ve seen and heard of you from one to ten…”
“That’s right.”
Kai’Sa smiled.
“Because I am an intelligent being with emotions.”
“…What?”
“I assure you, I have lived longer than what you think. I have experienced countless ups and downs along with joys and sorrows. What I gained from that long life was… Only boredom and boredom. Isn’t it funny that the ending is like this? You can’t imagine. What a deadly poison this is for me.”
Her gaze was vague, as if reminiscing about the past. Her eyes, which had been slightly blurred, came into focus again, and soon those eyes began to burn with obsession.
“Stimulation. Yes, stimulation! Without stimulation, even the greatest of beings cannot survive. Imagine that life is devoid of salt. It’s really, really, really to death… Hey. An intense and exhilarating stimulus that even threatens my life! I, to you guys, want an exhilarating fight where the outcome is unknown even if I do my best. That’s why I protected and cared for you guys like this.”
A monster created by boredom and boredom. Kaisa gave her hero a deep look with a terrifying smile. Even the warrior, who had never lost momentum before, was startled by her obsessive gaze. The unfocused purple eyes, which felt like a bit of madness, felt frightening.
“Hero Han Seong-yul! Come to my dimension! Like Baal of Destruction, I am also the demon king who invaded another dimension. But it was as if I had already won, so I was greatly disappointed. Really! Not at all! No fun! There was no fun! Ha ha , Haha … So come to the earth, the earth, and scout you. What are you? What is a good deal?
Kai’sa, who had been relaxed until now, was gradually disorganized. Filled with her excitement and anticipation, she almost shuddered and breathed heavily by the end of her words. Faced with her madness, which was hidden by her light and friendly demeanor, the hero involuntarily swallowed her saliva while sweating profusely. Now that I see it, it wasn’t an ordinary crazy bitch. Isn’t that the same as saying please kill me?
Thump, thump, thump.
The hero had never been caught off guard, and even after seeing her smiling face, Kaisa judged her as a fearsome demon king. But now… She was scared in a different way.
“Right. We, why don’t we make a small deal here?”
“Transaction…?”
“Poke me lightly with your knife. With the knife that killed Baal.”
“…Why? No, just don’t tell me. So what’s the price?”
Kaisa let out an embarrassing breath in her response and thought while scratching her chin with her index finger before she smiled.
“…Ah! I said it was a deal for no reason. I was too excited. You fool… Ugh, I don’t have anything to give you right now… Then how about this? I owe you one. I promise to pay you back as a favor later. Mouth I’m not going to shut it up and pretend I don’t know… Can’t I?”
“There’s nothing I can’t do…”
The warrior felt a little uncomfortable. Clearing her debt to Kai’Sa is certainly a good thing, but it was odd to see her lay down her blade in return. This is definitely…
‘I’m not crazy.’
You can’t even stab it deeply. Putting together the information we’ve heard so far, if Kai’Sa dies now, he’ll lose his chance to go to another dimension, and he’ll die sooner than later.
“Under.”
It was a laughing matter situation. Demon King Kaisa, whom I thought was an enemy, had his own purpose, but he was the savior who saved us anyway… Now, Kai Sa had to protect her so that she wouldn’t die in any case. And if possible, she should please her as well. Looking at her appearance so far, she is very meticulous, but on the other hand, it seems that she is surprisingly moody. If you make her feel good, she will surely repay you greatly.
It was a good deal that there was no reason to refuse no matter how uncomfortable it was. The warrior nodded her head.
“Instead, we’ll do it safely. Absolutely safe.”
“Of course. I don’t mean to die here in vain?
Roaring!
Warrior’s armor. His magic sword that killed the demon king was summoned. Kai’Sa was instinctively nervous due to the tremendous energy, but soon smiled sinisterly as if she was happy with the tension.
“This is the sword that killed Baal… Ha ha…”
What makes her so happy, she breathes heavily and twists her body.
… I need to finish it soon.
The hero thought so and took action.
“Go. Stay still.”
“Okay! Do it! Come to me!”
Kai Sa opened her arms wide, revealing her delicate white skin.
Woowook…
Like when he stabbed Baal, the hero raised his tension and prudence to the fullest, and stabbed the blade into her skin with great precision.
“Ugh…”
The hero’s words to stay still made no sense, and Kai’sa trembled. It was to such an extent that an unfamiliar person would mistakenly believe that she had been overcome by fear. But in reality, her feelings… It was ‘excited’.
The flat part just above the chest, below the middle of the two collarbones. A sharp, hot blade dug into it. Blood trickled down Kai’sa’s body as she dug into her knuckle. However, the hot heat from the warrior’s sword soon erased the affected area, and no more blood came out. Instead, smoke came out with a burning sound like grilling meat.
Half a finger, one word, one and a half words.
That was enough. I don’t know if it goes deeper.
Suwook!
The warrior pulled out his sword without regret. As soon as I let go of the handle of the drawn sword, the summoning was canceled and it disappeared into subspace.
“Huh! Ha, ha, ha…”
“Caesar?”
As if he had received a mortal wound, Kai Sa dropped to his knees and sat down on the spot. But what appeared on Kai’Sa’s face was neither pain nor pleasure…
It was a pleasure.
“Ka, Kai’sa? Hey. Come to your senses.”
Seeing her bewildered response, the hero grabbed her by the shoulder and shook her, wondering if he had stabbed her in the wrong place. Kaisa, who reacted only then, moved her purple eyes, which were different from Leia’s, and looked at her hero. Upon meeting the hero’s red eyes, Kai’sa’s round eyes instantly bent into a half-moon shape.
“Huhhh… Heh heh, excuse me.”
“Kaisa, you…”
But even as Kai-Sa regained her sanity, her champion looked at her with concern. Because…
Shiver.
“Uh…?”
It was because tears were streaming down from Kai’sa’s eyes. Like a heroine with a tragic heart who overcame all odds and was proposed to by her lover, Kai’Sa was shedding tears of pure joy. … This kind of reaction after getting hit by her knife. It’s definitely proven that it’s not usually crazy.
But… Kai’Sa’s face is pure delight, minus all her mischief… It was pretty. Even for a moment, she was enough to make the warrior’s heart pound. While the hero was taken aback by that emotion, Kai’Sa laughed awkwardly.
Haha, this is so embarrassing and embarrassing. But do you understand a little bit? How desperate I was. As you know, everything I said to you is the truth, and I want you to know it because it is all sincere.”
No matter how smirk his personality was, his cheeks were red, perhaps because he was ashamed to shed tears. Kai Sa, who soon calmed down and regained her composure, added her own feelings openly.
“It may sound like I’m full, but it’s not just nice to have everything go my way. It’s only a day or two to have fun doing things my way. When I heard that Baal of Destruction, that ignorantly strong guy, died… I You’ll never know how excited I was, how happy I was.”
As if treating her lover, Kai Sa smiled and reached out to her champion, stroking her cheek. The hero was left speechless at her lovable demeanor.
That mysterious time did not last long. After completing her business, Kai Sa applauded her and stood up from her seat.
“Okay! Now the ‘conversation’ is over. In my heart, I want to hold you back and have a body-to-mind conversation all night… But, well, there’s no way I can do that. I’m satisfied with this as well. Have a meeting. I’m laughing now, but I’m a serious woman when I’m doing it? All six of you will have to do your best.”
“…”
“Ehh? What is it, aren’t you going?”
However, the hero did not leave the room for some reason. Thinking deeply, he opened his mouth.
“I have a request for you.”
…
“Huh, I didn’t even think of this. This, Sungyul took a shot.”
“It’s a good thing.”
“Anyway, it’s good that we don’t owe each other. Yes, it’s fun when the beginning is fair.”
After the hero left, the two remaining in the room were talking. Kai Sa’s gaze was vague, as if after parting with the hero, the afterglow would remain.
“Okay then, since we’re done with our work, let’s play around.”
“It is not allowed.”
“Huh?”
Kai’Sa, who was about to go out to play after stretching out like a child who had finished a big homework assignment, was stopped by the guardian of time and space.
“The debt is gone between the two of you, but you just owe me.”
“Ugh! That, so?”
“I have to work.”
“Hey~.”
Kai’Sa cried. However, unlike her voice, her expression of joy, her expression was bright enough to shine. Kai’Sa’s purple eyes, a mixture of her pure joy and madness of stimulation, were still magical.
