Chapter 168 – Demon King (10)
Karel Nadeluca.
He was strong and cunning, but looked down on his opponents and was careless.
His defeat could be seen as a disaster caused by his own arrogance.
At the same time, it was also a feat that Azazel, Leon, and Edelis devoted their lives to.
Among them, if we were to choose the first-class contributor, we could mention Azazel, who made the board.
She caught Karel’s attention by using the ring containing her holy power to deliver an effective blow called ‘holy fire’.
She took on the role of the so-called “Bait” Of the nerves.
Bait thrown.
Karel Nadeluca, who snapped it up, had to see the price.
A thorn set up by Azazel is hanging from her neck.
She thinks she was a great cop even if she thinks of herself.
I ran into it and it looks good.
“Cool, cool.”
Azazel tried to smile softly.
But her broken ribs pierced her lungs and she couldn’t even laugh at will.
Only the sound of a dry cough echoed.
Her head buzzes.
Her body is also like a ball of fire.
There was no place that was not throbbing.
Amid the excruciating pain, the senses begin to dull.
Every time I tried to lift her up, I failed.
Even the slightest movement resonated with a sharp pain.
To put it in a word, it was a wreck.
“… Fuck, it’s ferocious.”
I wish I could have avoided it in a cool way.
It was a problem because Karel’s speed was faster than I had imagined.
They said it was Junchi even if it rotted.
“Can you stand up?”
Edelis, who came close to her, asked.
Azazel corrected her frown.
“Her ribs are broken, and her muscles are torn. She also got bruises from rolling several times? Ah, a real wizard can stand… Ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! What, what are you doing!”
“I’m trying to cheer you up…”
“It hurts! Sick! Don’t touch me because it hurts!”
“… Yes.”
A moment of silence passed.
Azazel held her pain and she inquired about the whereabouts of this absent figure.
“… Prince Leon?”
“You are looking at Karel Nadeluca’s body.”
Azazel’s brow furrowed.
It was because what Edelis said was unusual.
“Ugh, is he still alive? The name line is so boring. Even whale tendons are less tough than those.”
“Since we destroyed the core, it will be faster to collapse than to regenerate.”
“Yes? Then why are you looking at that?”
“Looks like you have something to think about.”
At that, Azazel struggled to turn her head to see Leon’s stare.
Karel Nadeluca’s remaining body.
It tried to regenerate endlessly, as if to prolong her life.
However, the nucleus itself, in which the cells were assembled, was broken, so it was nothing more than useless.
The demon’s body soon turned into powder and disappeared as it was scattered in the air.
The process resembles the white foam of breaking waves.
It was very similar in that it faded away.
Anyway, it’s completely over.
It was a bit of a silly ending.
Then a sigh of relief came out.
Azazel asks her silver-haired knight.
“How about you?”
It was a bit of an odd question.
Edelis tilted her head.
“Yes? What do you mean…”
“Didn’t you have anything to think about when you saw that damn demon child?”
Oh, was that a story?
Edelis scratched her cheek with her index finger.
“Because I think it’s more important to check Azazel’s physical condition than to be immersed in the afterglow of watching a scoundrel like that.”
It was a knight who spoke thoughtfully and casually.
Hearing this, Azazel felt oddly happy.
Well, who cares, how many people would be offended?
“… Thanks, Edelis.”
“But what about the treatment?”
“Because there is a ring that her older sister gave her with her holy power, she will be able to recover just by holding it…”
“That is good news. Me and I have no talent in the medical field.”
“Almost drained her holy power in her ring… , I’ll do something with what’s left.”
As we were talking, the sound of trudging footsteps echoed.
Leon had finished his contemplation and came to Azazel.
“… Isn’t it easy to buy?”
Looking at Azazel’s condition, he said with a frown on his face.
She didn’t like it when someone put on a sad face in her own state.
I’m the one who’s sick, but why do you guys have more painful faces?
So I shuddered.
“It was a head-on collision, but I’m glad it was over. You’re not hemiplegic, you can move your mouth well.”
In fact, even now, I can’t stand it, even though I feel like dying.
It was far better to be bluff than to be depressed because of oneself.
Why does the winner have to wear a sad face?
The winner always has to be bright.
Even so, the prince kept a bitter smile.
“Thank you both for coming along with my insistence.”
Edelis replied to Leon with a small smile.
“I am always ‘together’ with the low.”
“… Haha, don’t forget me.”
A sweet and sweet atmosphere unique to lovers begins to form.
Of course, it was hard work from the point of view of watching.
It’s very crumbly.
Azazel felt her side sore.
“I won’t hang out with you twice. It’s a role that only harms you, this.”
Leon asks while looking at Azazel lying down.
“Can you stand again, Miss Azazel?”
Azazel shook her head.
“No. It’s completely discharged. Even the slightest touch hurts.”
Edelis raised her question with her grave expression.
“Then, wouldn’t it be possible to follow Sir Einstein and Aria-sama?”
“I have to go.”
“But my physical condition…”
“I have to go.”
On this point, she never gave up.
At her stubborn insistence, Leon opened her mouth.
“Wouldn’t it only get in the way if I went as I am now?”
She tried to say something, but shut her mouth.
She knew very well that what she was saying now was nothing more than an excuse based on emotion rather than reason.
Edelis calmly watched the conversation between Azazel and Leon.
In the end, it was Azazel who raised the white flag.
“… I know, it’s a mess right now. So I’m going to take a little break.”
“Is that so.”
Edelis replied brightly.
It was a difficult situation to force yourself to do here.
“Very little. It just needs to be enough for my body to recover.”
“Is it possible?”
Leon replied with a relieved face.
She was a much better-looking face.
She said she had achieved her goal.
She didn’t look so hateful.
It’s best to end revenge cheerfully.
“Ah, I am tired. Really.”
Azazel groaned and closed her eyes.
Even so, her eyelids were very heavy.
“I’ll look over the net.”
“Okay, rest your eyes. Miss Azazel.”
Azazel laughed at their sly words.
“Yeah, I’ll sleep a bit and wake up…”
Not quite as much as Ariana Einstein.
These people are also quite strong.
I’m sorry, can you wait a little longer, sister?
I’ll be there soon.
* * *
Demon King and Ain.
The temperature difference between the two gazes was extreme.
Ain glaring at me to the point of stinging.
The demon lord looked after him casually.
It wouldn’t be strange if a sword fight happened at any time.
Even though I came here for that purpose in the first place.
Meals were of course declined.
It was an unsolicited recommendation.
You know what they did to the food?
Besides, a hero and a saint sharing a meal with the demon king?
Even if it’s ridiculous, there shouldn’t be enough.
The Demon King was not a compatible opponent.
A person who sends periodic attacks of monsters into human territory.
He is a person who can be collectively called the root of all evil.
An unavoidable feat.
That’s the devil
They ate in style and did not have time to chat or share.
He sat on his throne, resting his chin on the back of his hand and tilting his head.
“It’s a pity. I wanted to thank you for all the hard work you did to get here.”
“Are we going to have such kind words?”
“It must be difficult in the situation of the Demon King and the Hero.”
Ain used the pendant he received from Azazel to pull out her sword.
The black aura of the sword in his hand was young.
Even with his powerful energy, the Demon King is at peace.
“Stand up. And fight me.”
“Do you really have anything you want to ask Gwanin?”
It was a demon king who tried to have a strange conversation.
I see Ain
Depending on how he responds, his future policy will change.
“There is none.”
“Then ask me now. You won’t even have the time to do that once you get into a fight.”
My hero asked, gripping his sword tightly.
“Is there any special reason for unleashing demon beasts and attacking humans?”
It was a very legitimate question from his point of view.
Didn’t you lose your sister because of the terrible witchcraft?
Or the aristocrats.
A life of starvation and poverty.
Even if various factors were added, the fundamental cause of Amelia’s death was murder by a monster.
The demon king looked at Ain with bored eyes, probably considering it a trivial question.
“Are you just curious about that?”
“What else should I be curious about?”
Knock knock.
The demon king, who had been tapping the chair with his index and middle fingers, shook his head.
“If you’re a demon king, shouldn’t that be the case? I have nothing to say because you asked something so obvious.”
It’s not poetic.
A demon king who often speaks in passing.
“I see.”
Ain’s hand trembled.
Because of anger.
“Then I will do what I have to do as a warrior.”
Black energy erupts from the sword.
A wave bursting out soon after.
A torrent of mighty power is about to hit the demon lord directly…
“Do not hurry up.”
He waved his hand to deflect the oncoming sword wave.
Kwaaang!
The sword bounced off the wall and exploded.
An attack that is easily blocked.
It was definitely not Ain who did his hand.
As a result, the sword he held shattered.
“I also have something to ask the saintess.”
The topic came back to me.
I swallowed dry saliva and stared at the demon lord.
“You ask me what?”
“Saintess, can you hear the voice of God?”
It was such a stupid word.
If you heard something like that, shouldn’t you have heard it from the beginning?
I was trying to tell you not to say anything weird.
That was the moment.
Rattle.
The world turned off.
