Chapter 173 – 173. Now Face the Storm (4)
======================
Demon Lord Slayer can now wield the power of heat wave.
Was that even possible?
Savnak believed that it was impossible for humans to control the authority of the demon lord, but through the battle the previous day, he realized that that thought was nothing more than a stereotyped idea.
‘Then, Yushin Gilead, does that guy have the possibility of becoming the demon king of the heat wave?’
The red-haired demon king grabbed his chest.
Where the heart is,
It was the place where the magic core of the heat wave dwelled.
The magic core of the heat wave split in half. Just as he robbed me of half of the Magic Core, what would happen if he robbed me of half of the Magic Core again?
Then, will the demon king slayer become the demon king?
If it was the old self, it would have been dismissed as ‘absolutely impossible’, but as the phenomena that were considered impossible occurred in succession, the fear of the unknown began to spread in my heart.
‘I am also the body that became a demon king by stealing the demon core from the previous demon king. And just like I did, he took the magic core from me. Although only half…. He definitely has the potential to become the heat wave demon.’
Human king.
Nothing is impossible.
Because there have already been cases where humans have accepted the demon core and awakened as demon lords.
Nevertheless, the reason why Savnak has defined it as impossible… , Because there was only one precedent.
“Savnak-sama, this is the wine you ordered.”
The palace maid came.
The maid of misfortune, who was confined in the palace occupied by vampires, presented the best, well-aged wine to the demon king with her trembling hands.
“Well.”
Savnak loved alcohol, especially wine.
It was a very noble hobby that was not suitable for a fighter who knew nothing but war and fighting.
“Sorry, sorry… !!”
As I tried to pass the wine with my trembling hand, I spilled some of the contents.
Please, as much as your life….
Realizing her own mistake and begging for her life, Savnak was silenced by the actions of the palace maid.
He wasn’t particularly angry. He had only spilled a sip of wine. Savnak was not a homicidal maniac, as he took the life of an opponent for a meager amount.
… Of course, if the opponent had been an elf, I would have cut off his limbs.
“You have nothing to fear. I have nothing more to ask you to do, so please be quiet.”
“Yes, yes… ! Thank you for your mercy!”
Will the devil’s heart ever change?
She stepped back from her as if a maid who dared to disrespect her would run away.
About 10 minutes had passed since her maid left,
Marishka walked from the other side of her hallway.
‘Even if they hide their true nature with elegant beauty, in the end they are unavoidable beasts.’
Marishka was covered in red blood from head to toe.
Marishka, who was mortally wounded near her death by Allen, regenerated her body while consuming random humans in the palace to recover from her wounds.
The lady-in-waiting who was rude to her just now….
Unfortunately for her, she was killed with Marishka biting off her neck.
“I’m sorry, Demon King of Heatwave. It ended up looking messy. However, since there is something I need to tell you urgently….”
Marishka, who was mortally wounded and lost more than half of her body to her human female knight, returns to the Valois palace with her death.
She sucked her blood from vast numbers of humans to consume and absorb the energy needed to regenerate.
Without leaving a single drop,
She was able to recover from all of her horrific injuries thanks to her gluttony to the extent that her withered and twisted corpses rolled around, unrecognizable.
“What.”
At Savnak’s question, Marishka bowed her head and reported the progress of her gore ritual.
“It is being delayed somewhat due to an unexpected interruption from outside.”
“Hindrance? Is it because of the Demon King Slayer….”
“No. It is the work of a human girl with blue hair. She was with a bunch of humans. It’s a problem that arose when that bitch destroyed a lot of blood stones.”
“… A companion of the Demon King Slayer.”
Allen’s blue hair is a very rare hair color.
So, Savnak easily discovered the identity of the outside intruder.
A troublesome bitch broke in.
Like Another One, a girl with the power to cut off the demon king’s immortality.
Another One’s blood relative is clear.
Otherwise, humans in this world could not threaten the demon lord’s immortality.
“However, it is true that it is somewhat delayed, but there is nothing wrong with it. A small error has been made, but her mother’s great plan is still strong.”
The bloody vampire explained in detail to Savnak with a respectful gesture.
Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
Seeing the blood dripping down his chin, Savnak put on a disgusted expression.
Elegance and beauty cover their essence, but vampires are especially ugly and dirty monsters among demons.
Had it not been for a deal with greed,
There would never have been any help to these ugly mongrels.
“You mean to take care of the intruders?”
Savnak, who closed his eyes and opened them again, promised to deal with the Demon King Slayer as well as his fellow human female knight.
“Okay, let’s do that.”
This is also part of the transaction.
What Greed wants is the completion of the Vampire Queen’s plan.
Even for the sake of completing the plan, the Demon King Slayer and the human female knight are obstructions that must be dealt with.
Since his subordinates, who were more precious than his life, were held hostage by greed, Savnak had to actively participate in the vampire queen’s plan.
“And there is one more intruder.”
Marishka opened her mouth.
Drew Lee.
A descendant of the former demon lord who was called the sword of tyranny.
Marishka said that he was a traitor who betrayed the Demon Lord’s army and became attached to humans, and asked Savnak to punish him as well.

As soon as the next day came, Yushin invaded Lutemine again and hunted the vampires.
A flash of red lightning.
The thunderbolt, which was fused with the authority of the heatwave, spread sharply and turned all the vampires into ashes.
Disaster struck again. The terrible being that demons fear the most has arrived. The vampires of Rutemine realized that the demon slayer had invaded again and fired magic bullets into the sky to announce the crisis.
“Yusin Gilead.”
The enemy who stood in the way of Yushin was not Savnak.
Selmos Kendley.
Having great strength and power,
It was the Seven Swords of the Kingdom that foolishly fell for the vampire’s magic.
“Earl Kendley.”
“I didn’t know that a traitor who betrayed the kingdom and became attached to the elves would set foot in dirty ways in the City of Light.”
“… Looking at your tail now, do you say that?”
Yushin shrugged his shoulders at the absurd words of Earl Kendley, who denounced him as a traitor.
Who says who is a traitor?
I’d rather stick with the elves than play with the skirts of vampires. At least the elves are a race allied with the Holy Empire.
“I will kill you with my sword and take your thunderbolt.”
“Try it.”
Earl Kendley, raising his sword stained with dark blue waves, showed hostility.
And Yushin also,
Aiming his red-toned sword, he ignited his enmity towards his old comrades.
“Let me ask you one last thing.”
“What is it, traitor?”
“Who is the vampire controlling you? Let’s hear the name of the vampire who made the entire Central Knights a fool.”
At Yushin’s question, Earl Kendley gritted his teeth and swung his sword.
I have no intention of telling you.
It was an attack that meant it.
When the blue-black waves reached his face, Yushin gave up listening to the answer and launched a counterattack in response to the attack.
“I expected that something like another one with no way of knowing the roots would become a disturbing enemy ever since I dared to occupy the position of the Seven Swords of the Kingdom! Yusin Gilead, I will set justice right by killing you who betrayed the kingdom that gave you grace and joined the elves!”
Dark blue waves repeated contraction and expansion.
Contraction to concentrate power.
An expansion that lets out an attack that constricts powerful physical force like an explosion.
Earl Kendley was attacking with clear intent to kill. He was a puppet completely possessed by a vampire. And he was also a foolish man who confuses loyalty to vampires with loyalty to the kingdom of Valois.
“Justice? What are you saying, being manipulated like an idiot by a vampire?”
Thunderstorm
Cerebral palsy
A blade of lightning shot like a single bullet pierced the blue-black wave.
And after that,
Count Kendley hit the wave of arrogance he wielded for a counterattack.
Wow!!!
The red thunderbolt bounced back the wave of pride that was wrapped around the dark blue wave.
Lightning struck.
In response, Earl Kendley received the red thunderbolt using the finest armor equipped with several layers of defensive magic.
“Cool cool!”
He blocked the lightning with his armor.
His life was saved thanks to the wave of arrogance that greatly reduced the power of the thunderbolt.
“… You’ve gotten stronger, unbelievably.”
“You must be stagnant.”
Because he looked down on people while standing in a high position and considered himself superior.
Yushin criticized the arrogance of Earl Kendley, who was thoroughly armed with aristocracy. It was impossible to hear it in his ears as he was being controlled by vampires.
“Allen Roxfield. I heard that the mad dog of Roxfield also showed up near Rutemine.”
Hearing from the vampires about the blue-haired female knight, Earl Kendley was wary not only of Gilead, but also of Allen Roxfield, who hadn’t appeared in Rutemine until now.
Kingdom seven swords 2 and 3 seats.
Even though he was possessed by vampires, Earl Kendley did not forget the strength of Allen Roxfield and Gilead.
“Where is she?”
“I came alone because I was busy.”
“… He must have thought that he could break through the Central Knights with his single body! I will punish that foolish arrogance.”
“Call it confidence.”
“You can never cross my corpse. Central Knights, surround the renegade who betrayed the kingdom.”
As soon as Earl Kendley’s words ran out, the Central Knights, who were waiting in the rear, moved.
It must have been preparing a siege.
The Central Knights, who raised their sharp blades to the front, formed a neat siege and slowly put pressure on Yushin.
“Are you going to commit suicide as a group?”
Yushin looked at Count Kendley and asked at the appearance of the central knights approaching without fear.
To which Earl Kendley replied.
“Even if you kill us all, you will find that we are no easy opponents.”
“It sounds like shit hitting.”
If you find out in the other world that you were killed by a dog while playing in the clutches of vampires,
I wondered what face he would make.
Let’s let go as painlessly as possible even if we think about the past. After muttering that, Yooshin slowly raised his thunderbolt-soaked sword and aimed at Count Kendley.
And when you’re about to wield the final blow,
Yushin turned his head to a third person who was watching the situation like a bystander.
“What are you?”
“Oh, I don’t have to mind. Hurry up and kill that bastard.”
A man with two swords on both sides of his waist answered Yushin’s question.
As if to show that I am only a spectator,
He was watching the situation while crouching as if he had come to the market floor.
Like an impudent bastard. Yushin, who felt an unknown displeasure at the person he was seeing for the first time, reversed the blow he was trying to wield at Count Kendley and swung it at a third person.
