Chapter 95 – Before the Storm on the Floating Island
“…”
“?”
She glared at the maid who had come to pick me up with sharp eyes, but she just tilted her head with a smile on her face.
Well, this guy wasn’t lying.
Dream.
Beautiful isn’t a word used only for women, kitsch is beautiful. All right
It looks pretty to a man’s eye, but to a woman’s eye, how is it?
Yes kites. You can look beautiful to the maid and make me full of anticipation.
But that’s it.
Hiro Kaitsu you motherfucker. Your kid can’t do that.
“What…? I think you used abusive language.”
“…”
What she was arguing about with an uncomfortable face was the main heroine and bright beauty she had seen before.
According to the set-up, it’s not a character, but in reality, it’s Marie, the youngest cardinal.
She was exactly what the kid was doing.
Let’s see the set-up.
As soon as I opened the system window and tried to check it, I heard Marie’s questioning again.
“Is it true that Gwangshin swore at the chosen warrior?”
“…”
Without answering, I slowly moved her steps and moved to the seat next to her gold.
Then I looked through the setting book… And found it.
[Marie Malius
One of the main heroines.
She is a devout believer and is the youngest person ever to become a cardinal.
She says that her divine power is equal to that of all saints of her generation.
As much as she is a believer, she hates everything related to Ma.
She is a fundamentally good person who believes in, follows, and supports Kaitsu more than anyone else.
She seems to have difficulties in family relationships […
It’s a family relationship
It’s information that can’t be used now.
Fuck.
I needed a special move to scorch that bitch who was glaring at me, but I don’t have a weakness…!
Let’s just let it go naturally.
But as she slowly sits down, Marie asks her one more time.
“Look here, Stranger Dre. You now.”
Be persistent.
In this case, it is best to take off the pretense.
“You didn’t hear me wrong?”
“…I beg your pardon?”
“?”
Let’s make an expression that doesn’t know at all, what kind of shameless bastard is this? She makes a face. But what are you going to do? Did you do any recordings? Huh?
What would G do if he didn’t record it?
“Older brother.”
“…”
Still, it seems her heart is hurting to be scolded by her gold.
Should I apologize
“Today was wonderful! I never thought my own pettiness and impoverishment of imagination would be so damning.”
“Yes?”
I thought I was going to get scolded, but is he suddenly a compliment?
I think you’re talking about today’s test, huh… Yeah. I mean, it was great.
…
It was a big deal.
The atmosphere is cold, but I can’t stand the corners of my mouth going up.
After Alfred, I’m so damn happy to hear compliments worthy of praise.
At that moment, Marie tackled again.
“Golden Heart. Now is not the time to talk privately.”
“Um. That’s right. Excuse me. But, well, it’s because Cardinal Marie couldn’t see it.”
Returning to her usual businesslike face, Gold shrugs her shoulders.
Fortunately, thanks to Gold’s eccentricity, I seemed to have forgotten what I said earlier.
“So, is it safe to understand that Dre-sama was swearing at the hero?”
“…”
Forgotten Horn. You’re fucking obsessive
No, that bastard is handsome and talented even if he isn’t, so is it that much to be cursed at once?
“Think freely.”
“What, what? You…!”
When Mari clenched her fists and tried to say something, Katz restrained her by grabbing Mari’s shoulder.
“Ahahaha. Cardinal Marie. We’re very close. You must have said it as a joke.”
What? What now?
“Are you and I close?”
“Isn’t it?”
“…”
I glanced at Marie.
I thought he would have been more upset by my words, but for some reason, he was looking at Kitz with a puzzled look on his face.
…Anyway, it seemed like it would be annoying if I provoked her further here.
“Let’s say yes.”
“Thank you.”
Marie made her face uhm… And her stink, but she soon crossed her cross and muttered her words that sounded like her prayers.
“So. Hero Kaitsu Hiro. Now, can you tell me why you came to the Heart family?”
“Yes. Of course.”
It seems that he was deliberately waiting for me to come.
What the hell are you trying to say?
“As Dre-sama told you before, it has been confirmed that Almiraj has invaded the Floating Island.”
Pretty important stuff.
It’s because the system warned me directly.
“So? Got it?”
“No. We only found traces of him, but it is unclear where he is hiding and what his purpose is.”
Then why did you come
Did you come here to tell me that you are incompetent?
“The problem isn’t Almiraj. I’m just saying this in case you’re curious.”
“Please don’t say anything ambiguous.”
Haha.”
Kitsu laughed and Mari lit a double wick in her eyes.
I wish I had a good boyfriend.
“Yes. Not too long ago, an oracle came down.”
“Trust?”
“That’s right.”
Another questionable word… I can’t say
Because I’ve actually met God.
By the way, there are quite a lot of gods, right?
“Which god are you?”
“You are disrespectful!”
“?”
Why is this cardinal so fucking up again?
Moreover, it was the most pissed off voice ever.
I looked at him in amazement, but his face was so angry that it turned red.
“Brother. These are the followers of the holy kingdom of Narnia. They. And most of the people in the world have only one god, Nanar, who is the god of light and the main god.
“Sorry.”
If that’s fair gold then that’s it.
After she apologized without hesitation, Marie sat down, perhaps feeling relieved.
But is it given by the god of light?
Is there no god of fire?
“In the first place, including the Lord God, there are only five properly recognized gods, so please don’t make that mistake.”
“Five…?”
Five?
I’ve only seen dozens of them in the past.
And judging from the number of calls to the system window, the total number seemed to be over a thousand?
But five?
Are only particularly strong gods known to the world?
It was common sense to them and passed without explanation.
I want you to remember that I am a stupid stranger…
You’d better ask Gold when they get back.
“The contents of the oracle are that a disaster will come to the floating island. It is also the reason I left the castle and came all the way here.”
Kitz continued, and Gold asked.
“It’s too broad. What kind of catastrophe is it specifically?”
“I can’t arbitrarily confirm, but… The sights the cardinal and I saw are slightly different. When I put them all together.”
Not only Kitz but also Mari received an oracle?
Then, Katz stopped talking for a moment.
And look at me
What the fuck I’m not curious. In some music program, a 1-minute advertisement goes in before the ranking or identity is revealed. It’s not even a joke, it’s fucking steaming.
Crush the people.
After all, Gold asked first.
“When you see it?”
“…I think it’s the demon lord.”
The air in the room became chilly.
Came out
Devil.
Come to think of it, I had no direct contact with the demon king, but I had an indirect experience.
First of all, the human female slime Yuna was said to be a direct subordinate of the demon king, and I’m not sure, but my skill. ‘Revenge’, which was never used, and had nothing to write about because he had completed his revenge on Ulysse.
This is probably… I think it’s a skill given by the demons.
It’s just a hunch, but my hunches fit pretty well.
It was different from other skills and energy.
Ryunardo. Manado. And it’s not even the most ambiguous “Ki” So far.
According to the explanation, Ryunar is the ‘power to become anything’ that constitutes all matter in the world.
Mana is the power that melts into the atmosphere and allows people to use special powers, whether it be physical enhancement or magic.
Ki is a power that helps the body to ‘grow’ to surpass that of humans, allowing people to use a different kind of power than the mana that naturally dwells in those who have trained their bodies.
I had heard that there were many other auras, but the aura I felt from vengeance was different from any other aura I had heard of.
Considering that the energy was quite deep, it must have been given by the Demon King.
“Are you the true Demon King?”
The moment you asked without thinking.
Gold groaned, and Marie’s face turned as white as a piece of paper.
The maid standing in the back gasped, and Kitz… What is this idiot? Said.
Fuck you bitch Come outside.
I was halfway up and was about to draw my sword for real, but Marie screamed.
“I’m not making such vile remarks, even as a joke!”
“…?”
Why do you suck again What I couldn’t say was that it was a genuinely frightened voice.
“Your brother has just come to this country. You may not know about the taboo…”
“Other strangers will come at least knowing what the true demon king is and what the current situation is like on this continent? Ignorance due to laziness is not something to be covered up! Shindani, that’s very suspicious.”
…
Love heart, how much has this motherfucker been dereliction of duty?
The fact that all other strangers know that means that their superintendents properly informed them, right?
Ah. I want to curse
A bitch like a love heart dog…
Since he is God, wouldn’t he just read my thoughts?
I have to constantly curse at myself.
“I’m sorry. Could you please explain?”
“Dre-sama, do you think the hero seems to be free?
No. I was wrong, but I was terrified.
I was angry, so I said it in a quarrel.
“Didn’t you come all the way here because you were free?”
Marie opened her mouth in amazement and then said,
“No, you…”
“What.”
“What is this attitude! We have come to fulfill our sacred duty…!”
“What.”
“…!”
As my words get shorter and shorter, my face turns red like a volcano, and I get up and try to scream.
And then.
“Marie.”
When Kaitsu quietly called her name, her Marie closed her mouth again.
Still, her eyes are staring at me.
She was also hated by Beauty. It’s not surprising anymore.
The other day, when I was alone with Kitz at the academy, I recognized it, but with this, the addition of the Beauty=Bitch collection is confirmed.
“I will explain, brother.”
“Would you please?”
“Of course. The true demon king that older brother mentioned in the first place is also related to our teenage family.”
Ah. Come to think of it, the ancestor of a teenage family. The ten heroes fought against the true demon king, right?
So began Gold’s explanation.
A long time ago
The true demon king started a war for reasons no one knew.
The peaceful continent began to be stained with blood, pestilence, and monsters.
Everywhere was a battlefield, and there was no place to rest.
Humans and Elves Dwarves Beasts Fairies… And dragon.
All races except the demons joined forces to fight the forces of the demons, and a disorganized war ensued.
The one who put an end to that war is the teenage hero, the ancestor of the teenage family.
The ten heroes fought against the true demon king under the protection of the one and only being, ‘Pryunar’.
And miraculously, he succeeded in sealing the true Demon King, and the world regained peace…
After hearing the old myth, I asked a question.
“Why didn’t you kill the true Demon King?”
“According to the records, it seems impossible to kill it. It is said that it was barely possible to seal it.”
Whoa. Are you immortal?
In any case, it is said that the true demon king did not sleep well even after being sealed.
I will definitely come back someday
His cry, his agony, divided the continent into many branches, and the once united country was divided into dozens.
Storms and whirlpools raged in the sky and sea.
Some areas became dangerous areas that no one dared to enter, and decisively, the power of the true demon king spread all over the world and settled in his own people.
It is said that the true demon king had 666 powers.
Therefore, there are 666 demons with his power.
Each of them became a demon king, and in modern times they are called the demon king of 666.
…
There are so many kings on such a small planet.
How many demons besides the demon king are there so many kings?
Territorial disputes must be very serious, right?
“That’s a lot.”
At my words, Gold tilted her head.
“…? Is that so? Rather, isn’t it strange that only one demon king reigned among the tribes with the number of demons?”
“?”
Is there something wrong with the conversation?
Putting my doubts aside, a little more explanation follows.
There are 666 demon lords, but of course not all of them are of the same class.
They may be on the same level in terms of position, but like most people, their prestige is determined by power, power, and influence.
Top of the pyramid. There is a true demon king who was said to return one day.
And below that, there are twelve beings called Great Demon Kings, including four demons, and they are said to be the ones who actually rule the demons.
Below that, the number is divided into 100, 200, and 300 to determine the grade, and this grade is called Purgatory.
The twelve I mentioned earlier are true purgatory.
100 people in Purgatory 1, 200 in Purgatory 2… It seems that there is another group that gathered exceptionally strong people by dividing it in this way, but it was too complicated, so I just passed it over in one ear.
It is said that the remaining 65 demon kings are remnants who did not enter purgatory, and they say that they will compete for rank on a fictitious day with 300 3 purgatory guys who can always challenge.
“And the demon king who is scheduled to descend on the floating island is the demon king of the second purgatory.”
“…”
“It would be a disaster.”
Katz’s serious voice.
Uh… Do you?
It sounds like shit to be honest, because one out of 200 people is coming…
Then Katz added.
“Each of the 65 demon lords that have not been ranked has the power to destroy several knights in the country alone. They must have more power than a newborn dragon.”
“Hmm…”
“If it’s a second-class demon king, it’s a crisis for the country.”
Isn’t that too much to do…? If that’s true, shouldn’t this world have been under the rule of demon lords?
“Uh… Does that make sense?”
“What do you mean?”
“If that’s the case, shouldn’t the human world have been ruined long ago?”
A second-class demon king is a crisis for the country?
Then, if you include 1 purgatory and demons, don’t you mean that over 300 demon lords are all catastrophes of the national crisis level?
How can the world be peaceful when there are at least 300 people who control the existence of the country?
Maybe only the place where I live is peaceful and the outside reminds me of hell?
“…? What are you talking about, isn’t it because there are far more humans than their number?”
Said Marie as if it were absurd.
“Uh, yes?”
“There are more than five hundred and fifty countries, both large and small, and not only humans, but also other races are wary of the demons, and that is not enough. Are you? Especially among humans, those who are capable…”
“No, wait a minute.”
After interrupting Mari’s words, she thought for a moment before asking a question.
“This planet… Isn’t it about 7000 km in radius?”
Exactly the size of the earth is 6400 kg, but if you ask me like this, you will understand.
“Yes? What are you talking about?”
“…”
Well, it’s a fantasy world, but there was no way you knew the size of the planet… When I thought
“You forgot a zero, brother?”
“…?”
“I know that this planet is about 50,000 kilos…”
“…”
…Uh. Really?
Damn, how big is it?
Of course, I thought it would be the same size as the Earth, so I was confused, but Kitz suddenly said.
“Dre.”
“Uh, yes?”
“I would like you to answer me here.”
“What?”
Escaping from the shock, he replied bluntly, and Kitz pushed his upper body in disapprovingly.
Fuck you.
“The strong performance in today’s test was admirable.”
“…?”
“So, as a brave warrior, I make a formal request without shame. Please help us get rid of the demon king who will descend in a month or two and the forces that try to descend him.”
“…”
“Will you join us in our operation?”
“No.”
“…”
“…”
Silence flowed in the room.
In particular, Marie was a spectator, but she was completely frozen with an expressionless expression.
Then, the door opened and another maid entered.
“Hey… Mr. Gold?”
“What’s going on?”
“That… Asita-sama and the successor of Love Yarte came to visit.”
“What? Ashita and Mayal?”
“Yes. I want to see Gold-sama and Dre-sama…”
I jumped up with joy.
“Oh yeah?”
I quickly left the room.
I thought I could hear Mari screaming from behind, but what can I do?
Of course, those two take precedence over Kitz.
