The Warrior Is Disappointed in You 197

Chapter 197 – The Hero Reunited With Hazel

“Is everyone okay?”

After safely escaping the monsters, I asked the others.
Fortunately, no one in the group was seriously injured.
The demons that Velikiya said were demonic beasts were not as powerful as their appearance.
However, it is true that the party covered in the sticky blood of the monsters looks exhausted.
Feeling that further movement was impossible, I decided to rest there for a while.

“Everybody wait here until Camara comes.”

Kamara stayed alone to pull the monsters’ aggro, and she was the biggest factor in the wagon’s safe escape.
It was true that he was worried, but it was unimaginable that the dragon would suffer.
After confirming the party being treated by Marian, I approached Velikiya, who was far away alone.

“Tell me what you said earlier. The Demonic Beast?”
“Okay. They are things that originally did not exist in this world.”

Velikiya answered my question like that, and I tilted my head at her answer her.
It’s okay that the monsters we encountered earlier are creatures from the demon realm.
The problem was, why did the guys who hadn’t appeared in previous lives suddenly appear?
And the answer to that question came out of Velikiya’s mouth again.

“Baal, that madman seems to have opened the door to the demon realm.”
“Door to the demon realm?”
“Okay.”

Nodding her head at my question, Velikiya continued her detailed explanation of her.
In the first place, Velikiya’s explanation was that the continent I was in was a completely blocked world.
In response to that explanation, I asked if Baal was also the lord of the demon realm.
No, not only Baal, but also Balaam and Lilith were demonic beings, and they appeared several times in the history of the continent.

“So, the one who can open that connecting passage is the Demon King.”

I began to be intrigued by Velikiya’s explanation of her for the first time.
Come to think of it, the sudden appearance of the demon king army itself was a strange thing.
It was not easy to understand that so many troops were hiding at a certain timing.

“Okay, I understand. But why does that matter?”
“The Demon Realm has a fairly complex power structure. It’s true that Baal is the strongest, but the Demon World is where he can’t control everything.”

As Velikiya’s explanation continued, my party, who had finished treatment before I knew it, gathered around and began to listen to her story of her.
According to Velikiya’s explanation, the Pandemonium was in a much more complicated state than the continent.
Baal’s power was the strongest, and other monarchs who could keep him in check were surrounded by herpes.
It was only because the balance between the forces had been maintained for a long time that it seemed to be maintaining a more peaceful state than expected.

‘A peaceful demon world.’

It sounded absurd, but I had nothing to say about how the Demon Realm actually works.

“What did you mean? Is Baal crazy?”
“As I said, the Pandemonium has its own stable structure. In that situation, it was the demon king and this continent that Baal turned his attention to.”

The story that followed was simple.
Baal suggested that he share the continent with a few lords far from the lands under his control.
It was Lilith and Balaam that fell to Baal.

“Because those two can be overpowered with Baal alone. Besides, Balaam has no reason to betray Baal.”

In summary, it was that Baal, who was blacksmithing in the demon realm, invaded the continent with a few easygoing guys, and it was said that the continent was reeling from the previous episode.
The Pandemonium was a place where strong people that even Baal could not treat carelessly existed, and in the first place, the difference in power between the continent and the Pandemonium meant that it was embarrassing to even compare.

“Judging from the demonic beasts protruding, it seems that Baal has opened the door to the demon realm again. At least when I was in the Demon King’s Army, there were no Demon Beasts.”
“Is that a serious problem?”

At Velikiya’s words, Genoa asked with a puzzled expression, and an answer soon followed.

“Of course. The fact that demonic beasts have come over means that demon lords may come over.”

Looking at Velikiya’s distorted expression, I let out a light breath.
I thought this life would be a little easier, but it was because an unexpected difficulty suddenly popped up.

“If the lords have that much power, why didn’t they involve them in the first place?”
“That’s because of the interest, of course.”
“Benefit?”
“The reason Baal was interested in this world in the first place was to gain the power to overwhelmingly crush other monarchs. But it makes no sense to share it with other monarchs.”

I nodded slowly at Velikiya’s words his.
As she said, Baal in my previous life was driven to me, but he did not attract other lords.
And even to that last moment, Baal had not seemed to have the slightest idea that he would be defeated.
But this time it was different.
The war, which had dragged on for as many as 20 years, turned the tide in just over a year.
The Demon Lords, whom Baal was confident in, fell one by one by my hand, and he hadn’t even won a single victory so far.

‘And he also knows that I have returned.’

Of course, there was a difference between experiencing a regression and knowing that the world was repeating itself once again due to someone else’s return.
All Baal knew was that he had been defeated, at best.
After all, the demon king was incompetent even in his previous life his, and he did not know how Baal died in the end.
So, knowing that he had failed, and knowing that failure was coming much more quickly, it was perhaps the natural choice for Baal to attract other factions.

‘What should I do with this?’

I tapped the handle of my sword with my fingers and shook my head.
According to Velikiya’s explanation, this was a fight without an answer in the first place, but I thought that the weak goddess of balance wouldn’t have thrown a question without an answer.
Of course, that was just my opinion, and the other party couldn’t hide their serious expressions at Velikiya’s words.

“Everybody, what are you doing here?”

It was Camara who broke the mood.
Camara, in human form, approached us, and she said that as she looked at them in her strange silence.
Fortunately for her, she had no scars on her, so I greeted her with a sigh of relief.

“What about them?”
“Ah, I got it sorted out. And if you go all the way to the east, there are humans.”

I looked in the direction Camara was pointing and nodded her head.
Things weren’t great, but there was nothing too complicated to think about.
It was almost impossible to catch Baal and the demon king anyway in my past life, and I had the experience of overcoming that crisis.

“Let’s go, first save the desert tribe.”

No matter how far the road is, it starts with one step.
I was thinking of dealing with the nearest thing first.

**

‘This…’

As Camara said, he ran eastward and encountered a desert tribe.
Contrary to expectations, however, the condition of the desert tribes chased by the beasts was unbelievably good for refugees.
Of course, the faces of the tribe members were full of tired expressions from moving quickly, but that was all.
There seemed to be no shortage of food and drink, and the ignorant children of the desert tribe were running around and playing in groups.
Some of the tribe members reacted as if they were wary of my party, but soon they recognized me and Camara and naturally opened the way.

“Hero!!”

The moment I looked at the desert tribes with such a bewildered expression.
I heard a very welcome voice, and I turned my head toward the source of the voice.
And there, I saw Hazel running towards me with her long hair flowing.
No, in fact, I didn’t even see any hair.
Only Hazel’s enormous breasts her, shaking to the point where her clothes she seemed to be in danger, caught my attention.

“Were there cows among the prisoners?”

I heard Camara’s voice her muttering as she looked at Hazel.
Marian, who had already met Hazel, was trying hard to put on a calm expression, but the other women were busy looking down at her own breasts for some reason.
Hazel De Buster.
Although she was just an ordinary noblewoman of the Empire, she certainly possessed a tremendous presence.
