Chapter 233 – 233. The Second Coming of the Tyrant (1)
=======================
In the distant past that no one will remember,
Now it has completely collapsed to the point where even its name is not handed down, but there was a kingdom that was so rich and powerful that it once held the hegemony of the continent.
Through foreign conquests, numerous foreign races were reduced to the slave class, and among those foreign races, the elves, who were called the race of the forest, were included. The kingdom filled its own amusement and pleasure by enslaving the elves, who were especially beautiful.
‘Tyrant Vortigan.’
However, the kingdom that achieved a dazzling golden age through the slave industry was destroyed by a tyrant.
A tyrant whose blood never ran dry on his hands.
A rare killer king who murdered all noble royalty and nobles, citizens who did their duty and service, and even slaves under them.
A sinner who committed even the mortal sin of calling in the great demons of Gehenna in the underworld by sacrificing his own kingdom, stained with blood and blood, as a sacrifice.
The tyrant whose cruelty and cruelty were beyond imagination to the extent that even the neighboring countries shut up, and the great devils who allied with him were eventually slaughtered by a person called the Sword Saint, and the kingdom that flourished with brilliant wealth and civilization was destroyed by the neighboring countries. It disappeared without a trace due to record erasure.

The appearance of the monsters gathered in the sky came as a terrible nightmare to the silver-haired elf who was watching him from the ground.
It must have been a nightmare.
Otherwise, there was no way the peaceful atmosphere would have reached such an extreme level. It was to the point where I felt that someone’s malice was involved.
“Hey, Yushin!”
Liana shouted.
In response, Yushin, who had been confronting countless enemies with her black thunderbolt fired, turned her gaze to her.
“Me, me, me, me, there!! Isn’t what I see over there a dream?!”
“I can see it well in my eyes.”
“Damn it, I didn’t see anything wrong!”
At her Yushin’s short reply, Liana let out her despair as she tousled her own hair.
She had some expectations.
That something was about to happen in Sanctuary.
But how could I have predicted this terrible sight.
Countless legions of monsters covering the sky,
The sight of the wyverns holding fire in their mouths while flapping their wings as if they were going to spit out fireballs at any moment was grotesque. The roar and cries they vomit made me want to put my mind at ease.
“It’s ridiculous. With Savnak disappearing, all the Demon King’s army in the Liberia Peninsula must have been subdued….”
“Those aren’t the demon king’s army.”
“Well, then… ?”
“Beasts of lust, the army of Grid.”
Demon’s Oath,
An army led by Grid.
Yushin’s answer made Riana start to hiccup, her shoulders trembling, as if she was greatly surprised.
“So, then what happened in the Kingdom of Valois will also happen in the Liberia Peninsula?”
“Worst case scenario.”
“It’s because of you, you plague god! Go back to your country quickly!”
“Who is the plague god….”
Liana shouted loudly and pointed at Yushin.
Did she hear her mighty cry,
She leaned against the root of the World Tree, struggling to let her breath out, and El opened her mouth.
“No, it’s not Mr. Gilead’s fault. My actions only irritated the grid.”
At El’s reply, Liana had to keep her mouth shut.
For her, El Cid is the teacher of the great senior,
He was like an ancestor from a distant generation above. If Ardena had seen this situation, she would have had to run around her parade ground until Liana’s body was reduced to powder.
“Around the sanctuary there should be warriors sent by the priest. Please inform us of the situation inside the sanctuary as soon as possible.”
At El’s request, Liana nodded her head heavily and accepted.
She must inform the situation inside the sanctuary.
We had to inform them that El Cid is currently incapacitated, and that the world tree and the existence of the sanctuary are all in the hands of the warrior commanders.
‘Following the kingdom of Valois, to the home of the elves….’
The terrifying sight of Lutemine destroyed by the beast of lust flashed through Liana’s mind.
Humans killed by vampires.
It was even used as a sacrifice to mobilize blood in the ritual.
Knowing that the kingdom of Valois, which boasted great wealth and power, was ruined by the demon king of grid and tyranny, she couldn’t help but feel alarmed.
‘Mother, Father! Besides, there are younger siblings at home! I have to stop that monster somehow!’
Thinking of her parents and her younger siblings enjoying a peaceful time at her home, Liana squeezed her eyes shut and let go of the fear in her heart.
Didn’t she see it with her own two eyes?
The appearance of the kingdom of Valois, which had completely collapsed at the hands of monsters and vampires.
So, Riana made up her mind.
I will never let those monsters overrun my home.
* * *
Yushin stretched out her hand to protect El, who could not fall from the World Tree.
With her thunderbolt dangling her sword,
She kept the Wyverns in check, who were stalking them in the World Tree.
Perhaps they knew that if they rushed at them recklessly, they would only be entangled in lightning and die. It was just preparing to shoot at the world tree with fire in its mouth.
‘Are you going to burn the World Tree like this? Right now, the World Tree, Bria, is temporarily storing El Cid’s power, authority, and vitality. If the World Tree is attacked, I’ll have to be careful, as El Cid may be adversely affected.’
While continuing the standoff for a while,
The first to move was a group of wyverns.
It fluttered its wings wide and at the same time spewed out red fireballs while shooting at the World Tree.
And at the same time, pillars of ice began to rise from the ground all at once. Pillars of ice emitting cold air hit the herds of wyverns that were spitting out fire. The unexpected attack made the Wyverns helplessly suffer.
“Bariteon.”
Yooshin thought of a blond male high elf who was extremely handsome.
3 warrior commander seats, bariteon trident.
A Holy Spear that exudes pure white cold air, the owner of the theory of eternity.
As if some sort of promise had been made between El Cid and Hierarch Ilaina, warrior commanders were already deployed around the sanctuary. As if to prove him, the ice pillars of Eternity blocked the Wyverns trying to attack the sanctuary.
Blah blah blah blah.
The trees of the sanctuary, which held vitality, froze like ice.
And that wasn’t all.
Even pure white frost landed on the land of greenery.
“Hello!”
An elven woman emerged, carrying a shield taller than her own in her hands.
After putting Veronica’s shield in front,
Just as she protects El and Yushin, she stands in Sunjin.
As soon as the shield was activated, the mana in the air began to tremble. After the mana gathered around the shield, a barrier was developed to protect the sanctuary from the Wyverns in the sky.
“What was your name?”
“Rosta Bouclié, 5 seats for the warrior commander! I will cover you from now on, Demon King Slayer.”
Yushin’s question of her name might be taken as an insult, but Rosta laughed as if she was happy that her esteemed demon slayer asked her name.
It’s time to look good to the Demon King Slayer.
Holding the shield, Rostar maintained a defensive wall while being vigilant not only from the front, but also from the side and rear.
‘World tree. Sanctuary. And Sir El Cid. There are many things to protect, but there are also countless enemies who are targeting him! He’s a shield bearer, and he’s a battlefield he can’t back down from!’
Protect allies from enemy attacks,
Sometimes, it crushes enemies for the life and safety of its allies.
As the one who bears the shield,
It was a fight that could never be backed down.
“I… By the way, I was put in without knowing the situation at all? So I don’t know what to do and how to do it. Please tell me how to apply from now on, Demon King Slayer.”
“First, protect Sir El Cid. Right now Sir El Cid can’t escape the World Tree, so be careful with that.”
“All right!”
Rosta responds with a confident voice to Yushin’s words.
And El Cid, leaning on the roots of the World Tree and looking at them.
There seemed to be no time to chat.
It was because new monsters appeared in the gaps we were having a short talk with.
“Today is the day for the demons’ feast? Besides, that’s undead.”
Scarily after Yushin’s words were finished, skeletons emitting red eyes appeared from the sky.
Wearing a luxurious robe,
He brought out a wand with an impressively luxurious design.
It looked like they were trying to advertise that they were followers of the beast of lust. All of the liches armed with various rare magic tools seemed to be archmages who had reached a level comparable to Cordoba, who had fought in the unexplored lands.
“Rosta!”
“Yes, the Demon King Slayer.”
“Protect Sir El Cid. I’ll take care of those skull gourds.”
“All right!”
After entrusting the role of protection to Rosta,
Yushin kicked off the ground and ran straight up to the top of a tall tree.
And while wielding a sword with thunderbolts, he preemptively attacked the liches who had camped in the sky.
“He is the Demon King Slayer.”
“A black-haired, black-eyed human, he must be a demon king slayer.”
As the jet-black thunderbolt flew in, the liches stretched out their hands and deployed a shield.
High-level defense magic.
About 10 riches united to form a defense magic.
“Haha!”
“I can’t believe it, the shield… !!”
The solid defense shield that the archmage level liches cooperated with was shattered as helplessly as a glass ceiling.
Defeat the shield in an instant,
The liches who depended on him were swallowed up by black lightning and turned to ashes.
Quadduk!! The vessel containing the essence of the lich, the Life Vessel, was smashed. As the aftermath of the black lightning strikes the body, even the bowl inside it is smashed at once.
“He knows how to deal with us!”
He skillfully aimed at the Life Vessel. As a result, the rich shouted and were wary of Yushin wielding a thunderbolt.
“I am the kind of person who grinds my teeth every time I see your skull gourds.”
I’ve had trouble in the past.
Is that why?
Yushin hated Lich the most among the undead that smelled rotten.
Besides, he was aware of the lich’s nefarious plans. Just as Cordova tried to drop monsters from the unexplored lands into the sky above Maherit, the capital of the elves, it seemed that those liches would also summon an army of monsters to the sanctuary.
So, to trample on the root of the fire,
First, they launched a preemptive strike against the Lich Legion.
“Damn it, the plan to summon the heroes….”
“Heroes?”
Yushin responded to the muttering of a rich man.
Why are those evil skull gourds talking about heroes all of a sudden?
Could it be that there are heroes who sympathize with the beast of lust?
Perhaps the heroes of the Holy Empire?
No, it can’t be. There was no way that the heroes of the Holy Empire, who were as hostile to demons and demons as the elves, would stand on the side of Grid.
‘I’ll think about it later. Anyway, it’s urgent to deal with these skull gourds.’
An innumerable army of monsters was besieging the sanctuary, but this was just the beginning.
Yushin remembers.
The majesty of Grid, which appeared directly above Rutemine, the capital of the Kingdom of Valois.
The subordinates led by that gigantic monster couldn’t have been anything like this. They must have many more, more vicious legions under their command. The monsters now sent to the sanctuary were simply a part of the forerunner and vanguard.
“Now, I’ll step on you in turn, so get a numbered ticket.”
Yushin stretched the tip of his sword.
As a result, the liches showed a tense appearance and prepared the best magic they could use right away.
When the suffocating atmosphere of the Demon Lord Slayer and the Lich Corps continues,
The beast’s loud roar rang out.
The place where the roar started is the outer area located beyond the sanctuary. It was a place where there was a distance between the sanctuary where the battle between the elves and the monster army was taking place.
“Ghaaaaa!!!”
The atmosphere vibrated rapidly.
As if the mana were startled by the furious roar, they dispersed for a moment, then returned to their original state.
“Have you newly summoned a vicious monster?”
“Looking at that ferocious roar, it must have been a formidable force.”
“A terrifying, ferocious roar indeed! What a vicious monster he summoned…. This realm of cursed elves will burn in one breath!”
The roar heard out of nowhere, and the liches were delighted that a new force had been summoned.
But the owner of that roar,
It was to vomit hostility toward the monster army.
“That’s our mad dog, you bastards! He has a much more ferocious temper than you monsters!!”
Yushin shouted at the liches.
And in response to that cry,
As soon as the owner of the roar appeared, hundreds of demons surrounding the sanctuary were crushed.
