Chapter 169 – 169. Because You Called the Thunder (6)
=================
The red sky opened and the demon king appeared.
Appearing proudly in the sky over Rutemine, Savnak descended to the ground guided by the vampires.
The ground was truly an abyss.
In the city of humans where discipline and justice have disappeared, only evil is overflowing.
“Welcome to the capital of the kingdom. A great and honorable demon king.”
Marishka greeted her gracefully as she fluttered the hem of her skirt.
Hiding frivolity,
He seemed very sincere and polite.
The opponent is the demon lord of the heat wave. Besides, she had come with orders from the ruler of the southern continent. For her future alliance, it was necessary to maintain a smooth relationship.
“Vampire Queen’s eldest daughter, Marishka Vampir. Under the command of the demon king, she came to bring mercy punishment and compassionate death to humans.”
“Love and mercy? Are you saying that there is love and mercy in the horrors of that wooden dog?”
At Marishka’s words, Savnak snorted at her and looked down at the horrors the vampires had created.
It was to the point that I couldn’t bear to watch it.
The bad taste of the vampires who looked at the gruesome scene of murder, looting, and rape as if they were enjoying it made the demon king frown.
“What am I going to do?”
Savnak asked.
To which Marishka replied.
“There is nothing right now. There were unexpected variables…. It was within the permissible range.”
Marishka’s eyes were on the Druins who were fighting the corrupt Central Knights.
Druin was struggling.
All he had to do was to counterattack intermittently while swinging both swords at the same time while narrowly avoiding the blows that were stabbed and swung from all sides.
Soon the guy will die.
After being slashed by sharp blades, they will meet a terrible end.
“The King is here, but I can’t help but prepare a place. Bring a chair.”
Marishka clapped her hands.
It was a signal to the court ladies standing behind.
The maids, who were being controlled by vampires risking their lives, had no choice but to behave as they were told. Eventually, the ladies-in-waiting took over the positions reserved only for the king of the kingdom of Valois.
“Hmm.”
Savnak, the maids of honor sitting in the colonel’s seat, leaned back with one leg crossed.
He was only sent as a fixer,
He had no reason to be active in the plan to destroy the kingdom.
So she decided to keep quiet until Marishka instructed her to do so.
Although it was a situation she did not like.
Now that his men are held hostage by Greed, Savnak has no choice but to semi-forcefully join the plans of the Vampire Queen allied with Greed.
‘I can’t imagine that the kingdom of humans would be driven to the brink of destruction in just a few days. It is said that the incident was triggered by the confrontation between humans, but the vampire queen’s intelligence and cunning are truly amazing.’
Savnak admired the vampire queen’s intelligence, who instantly turned the human kingdom into hell.
With the head, not the strength,
Instead of spears and swords, with schemes and tricks,
Instead of the inefficient act of war, the kingdom of Valois collapsed from the inside through long-term traps and tricks.
“Ah. Do you know that?”
Marishka put on her excited expression and opened her mouth to Savnak who was sitting on her throne.
“The fact that this idiot country that is now falling apart is the homeland of the Demon King Slayer.”
Savnak’s face wrinkled at the vampire’s words full of ridicule.
Blue lightning and roaring thunder.
A sharp thunderbolt sword, blue-tinged dragon armor.
I vividly recalled the time when we fought fiercely risking each other’s lives in the scene of torrential rain pouring like crazy.
“Then the Demon King Slayer will appear. I’m in charge of him.”
“As you like.”
A rematch with the Demon King Slayer.
Savnak was intensely yearning for it.
I can feel his energy. Apparently he was coming to this city.
Savnak reached out and grasped the hilt of his sword. Because he won’t be fighting again soon. He waited for the right moment while trying to hold back the hot feeling of elation.
‘He’s coming this way. He must have known that I came.’
It’s coming.
The Demon King Slayer was speeding towards this cursed city.
As he quietly closed his eyes, he remembered his struggle with the Demon King Slayer.
As he chewed the pain of defeat and recalled the humiliation of defeat, he swore to himself that he would never lose this time.
* * *
The reddish sky darkened even more.
Like announcing the destruction of humans,
As if to punish the stupidity and stupidity of humans,
The red sky was constantly spewing out evil demons created from human blood, corpses, and ghosts.
‘As expected, the problem is that damned sky created by vampires. What the hell are you trying to do?’
After being separated from Allen for a while,
Yushin, who was heading towards Rutemine with half of his men, stared at the red sky and tried to see through the Vampire Queen’s ulterior motives.
Savnak appeared while cutting through the red sky.
Even after summoning the Demon Lord of Heat, the huge transfer magic was still working.
Are you trying to call something again?
It might be a legion of vampires waiting silently for their time in Gehenna.
If the vampire legion were to cover the sky above the kingdom, cutting through the red sky like Savnak, the kingdom of Valua would be destroyed without even trying.
“Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.”
After kicking the vampire in the face, Yushin slashed and knocked it down.
The number of vampires was quite large.
Lutemine had already become a den of vampires.
He lamented that the City of Light, which he once swore to protect, had become a city of death after being captured by vampires. Seeing the vampires swarming everywhere and the knights of the Kingdom Army being manipulated by the vampires, Yushin realized the seriousness once again.
“Sir Gilead. There are too many enemies.”
“I know.”
Responding to Zenit’s words, Yushin delivered a blow tinged with a blue flash and annihilated the vampires en masse.
However,
There were still many enemies blocking the way.
The gateway to enter Rutemine. The vampires fiercely stopped the Yushin party at the gateway as if they had formed a defense line.
“Yushin Gilead! You traitor!”
“The shame of abandoning the kingdom and surrendering to the elves!”
Among the vampires, I saw a familiar face.
They are nobles of the kingdom of Valois.
For some reason, they became vampires and were under the control of the vampire queen.
They became vampires voluntarily, not by force. He must have been seduced by the promise of eternal immortality and became a member of the vampires. It was really funny to talk about betrayal of the subject who fell for the trick and became a vampire.
“This is lucky. Even so, I wanted to kill you guys, who are nobles and tremble for money. To be given a chance to kill legally.”
Yushin cut down those who were nobles of the Valois kingdom in the past without the slightest hesitation.
I wish there was a crown prince and a princess too.
Loyalty will make you pay the price for bringing the country to this point.
‘I have to find the head first.’
Yushin looked around and tried to find the head of the vampires.
Could it be in the palace?
I assumed that, but there was no evidence that the head of the vampires would always be in the palace.
“Don’t go too deep. I look out for Lutemine’s sympathy while maintaining an escape route so that I can pull it back at any time.”
Yushin kept his composure as much as possible, looking around and looking at the scene of the city occupied by vampires.
Do not enter Rutemine carelessly.
The capital of the kingdom of Valois has already become a demonic realm.
There was an overwhelming power difference.
If you blindly set foot in Lutemine, you will be attacked from all sides.
‘It’s too bad. Couldn’t it be that all the central nobles of the kingdom were turned into vampires? Thank you for taking care of the garbage, but… Damn, why are there so many aristocrats who fell for vampires?’
I wanted to wipe out all the vampires who were in control of Lutemine even if it was too much, but I had to endure it for now.
Savnak is in Rutemine.
Even in order to deal with the heat wave demon, he had to keep conserving his strength.
“Ah, an ally!”
“We are under attack by vampires, please help!”
While Yushin and the others were dealing with a number of vampires, a shout of urgency was heard from afar.
They were knights of the kingdom army.
And they were protecting a number of civilians presumed to be citizens of Ruthemine.
It didn’t look like he was being manipulated by a vampire. As if to prove it, the Kingdom Army knights wielded mana blades and fought fiercely with the Vampire and the Kingdom Army soldiers under his control.
“Yu, Yushin Gilead?!”
The knights of the kingdom who joined after breaking through the siege of the vampires after a lot of hard work showed a surprised look at Yushin’s face.
I hope we will meet again
The knights of the kingdom once insulted him as a traitor, but they had to somehow escape this hell of misery, so they decided to ask the Demon King Slayer for help.
“After twists and turns, we were able to rescue some citizens. However, hundreds of thousands of citizens are now imprisoned in Rutemine!”
“The vampires took control of the palace, so it was impossible to confirm whether the king was alive or dead, and the kingdom army was destroyed by the vampires. Even the Central Knights have been corrupted by the vampire’s demonic powers, and even a counterattack is impossible!”
This is the worst situation ever.
Hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians are forcibly detained.
The only way to rescue hundreds of thousands of citizens who couldn’t even escape from the chaos and were tied up was to free the royal palace from the vampires and the Central Knights from their clutches.
“No, we will retreat from Lutemine from now on. Even the citizens who barely rescued have to be saved. Janet, protect the refugees.”
“All right.”
Yushin ordered Zenit and his knights to defend the citizens of Ruthemine, who they barely rescued.
And after that,
With the thunderbolt dangling sword, he confronted the gaze that was watching him.
A mighty enemy is right in front of you.
A woman with black horns and red hair.
The demon king, who was holding the hilt of the ink-colored scrap sword, glared at his nemesis with glass-colored eyes. Recognizing that gaze, Yushin confronted the demon king while standing in front as if to protect the citizens in case they were caught up in it.
