Another side

The Demon King's words are like a lie, like a joke.

But lured into a different space, confronted with his existence, they cannot take his words as a joke.

I do not wish it to be a joke.

After all, the god you are wishing for does not deny the words of the demon king.

Now I've said what I wanted to say. Unfortunately I don't have time for this either. Isn't it about time you let go of my best man's child?

The margin of the demon king, who makes you feel neither irritation nor impatience.

It's not carelessness.

It's not arrogance.

Ithar's forces, which should have taken hostages to gain an advantage, seem meaningless.

But I am confident that I am fully prepared for what will follow.

He just stands there with dignity, but the power that comes from his body is overwhelming.

How do you feel? You there, cutthroat angel. "I promise in my name to kill you all here if you will just give me those children back. I will kill you in my name if you give those children back to me honestly.

But the demon king is at least willing to have mercy and reduce the effort required.

No suffering means no torture, and you're willing to give up information that could be obtained.

Bringing up bargaining means that you are willing to save yourself the trouble that could be saved.

A concession that could be considered a good deal, depending on the recipient.

But this can only be understood by those who understand the demon king's mind and are prepared to accept it.

No, no!

"Stop!

It's not normal to be able to see the overwhelming power and think straight in the face of the reality of death.

A soldier, trained and empowered in a short period of time, but before that he was a civilian.

Slightly undertrained in the act of resisting fear.

To cling to the security of the gun in your hand, you point it at the demon king and pull the trigger, eager to escape from fear.

The sound of exploding gunpowder can be heard, and the soldiers around you, pulled by the sound of exploding gunpowder, continue to pull the trigger without being able to hear Nisia's voice of restraint.

The bullet that destroyed the demon tribe in the company was a bullet of hope for them.

But the only people who can't predict the future outcome are the ones who fired the bullet.

"Hmm, I see...the bullet with the holy carving. Surely they are effective up to a certain point for our army.

It doesn't seem to have had any effect on the demon king, who grasps the first bullet with his finger and peers at the warhead.

The sight of it makes you feel more and more terrified, and you pull the trigger to the point that you forget to change the magazine, but of course the bullet doesn't come out.

Your thoughts are spinning and you lose your cool even more in the confusion.

The excuse that the soldiers were only defending themselves is refrained again and again: "Okay, we'll talk about this later, Jared.

Okay, I'll leave this to the giants later. ......... Now that I'm under attack, is that the right answer to what I just said?

But no matter how you explain it, the fact remains that you attacked the demon king.

It was the other side that kicked away the mercy that could not be taken as mercy.

Then no more killing.

And not killing someone does not equal mercy.

Scatter!

How many were able to respond to Nisia's cry.

The moment she smiled, the god moved, and immediately afterwards, Nysia screamed and moved, and in response to her voice, Eshley and the others moved.

So what about the soldiers who froze in fear?

"Geez!

"My hand!

"My leg!

Kuro fangs sprouting out of space.

A merciless beast that is not gentle enough to be called predatory.

It devours all four limbs in the blink of an eye, leaving them in a state of limbo.

Help!

No!

"Mom! Ka-chan!

Dragged into the darkness.

"Mm, minus the small fry. That's set in stone.

The demon king is satisfied with the result.

And the shivering Eshley and her friends.

(I didn't see it.)

Inwardly Nicia was puzzled that the motion of the demon king's attack was invisible.

It wasn't about being too fast or anything like that.

It wasn't about being too fast or anything.

"Well, now,

He said he had broken the seal, but Nissiya sensed that the increase in his ability was unusual.

It moved so slowly that she wondered if there was a reason for it.

But I'm not just letting you get ahead of me.

"Take your time, your opponent is the last thing I want to do.

Ishaan and Kawasaki, the blade sprouted from space catches the coordinated attack by the body controlled by the gods without any difficulty.

Even though the white blade is in front of you, it doesn't change its expression as it deals with the attack.

Or...

Seeing the attack, you understand that this space itself is the Demon King's means of attack.

Would you like to be the first to leave?

The answer sends a chill down Nisia's spine like a cold nanika.

The space itself is occupied by the demon king.

It's as if you're inside the demon king's belly.

There is no such thing as a safe zone here.

The only reason we have a reprieve now is because we have a baby here that floats in the air.

That's the only reason.

If the demon king does his best, he will wipe out the baby.

"[.........]

But it's only a reprieve.

The result will be the same, and it's clear that if we continue like this, we'll all be taken alive.

We must do something, but we're reminded that it's useless to attack blindly.

Even in that situation, it's still a god that works.

Wordlessly holding your sword, you slash at the demon king with your magic to keep him in check.

The exquisite coordination created by one being moving the two.

But...

Well, that's the way it would react.

As if to say that he was dumbfounded and knew what he was doing, he easily dodged an attack that no human being could have avoided or seen, and now he's saying, "It's a little hard to catch you guys, isn't it?

"It's a bit of a pain in the ass to get you guys, you know?

In the next moment, out of the surrounding darkness, a myriad of thorny thorns shot out at the god.

Needless to say, each one was a realm of deadly force.

It is not a matter of how brave the body of a processed human can be if hit.

The place you hit is gutted mercilessly and will never recover.

Dark thorns that bleed even if you let them snatch you.

The demon king's attack makes you think that words and actions don't match, that he has no intention of catching you.

The god fires a spell at the standing demon king, but the thorns block the magic.

Then, as if to counterattack, a wave of thorns strikes the god, piercing Nisia's wards and gouging her body.

Immediately, it uses the flames of life to repair her body.

But even though her body has been repaired, Nysia's expression is poor.

Under her protection, the faces of the three of them are even worse.

Isual's group is being slowly attacked every second.

Only the gods show no signs of impatience on the surface and no breakthrough is in sight.

You have to use your holy sword and magic to attack, but you are forced to retreat three steps to advance one step.

Despite the fact that the score is six to one, the battle is one-sided.

However, although the demon king seems to be attacking smoothly, the demon king is not in a position to have the luxury of time.

Although the demon king boasts of his longevity, compared to the years of life of a god, there is a difference between adults and babies.

It's no mean feat to overturn that difference in experience.

.........

Gestures that make the opponent think he is at a disadvantage without losing his composure.

Being aware of a trapped baby floating in the air, delicately manipulate the powerful magic to avoid doing any harm.

Drive them with the thorns of darkness, keeping your nerves sharp without panicking to prevent the gods from realizing your intentions.

Slowly and deliberately, once your impatience has been made known, the gods will take advantage of the opening.

The sealing technique is usually used to prevent the demon king's power from affecting those around him, but there's also a reason why it can't be fully revealed to the demon king.

That's because any further release of magic power will cause damage to the surroundings at a level that cannot be overlooked.

''

The first seal was opened to oppose the gods, but it has come to the brink of affecting or not affecting the baby alone.

The art of controlling one's own magic is the basics for those who use magic.

But even the immortal king has yet to master it.

It's a never-ending task where the more you control it, the more trials await you.

The more you hold your magic, the harder it is to control it.

The difference between transferring a single bucket of water to the same bucket and transferring the water stored in the dam to another dam is obvious.

The demon king's mighty magic is indeed powerful and incomparable.

But while it's easy to pick a small flower with small hands, it's extremely difficult to pick a small flower with huge hands.

"You're running around, aren't you?

"Playfulness

When the swan is on the surface of the water, it tries desperately to move its legs to stay on the water, but it doesn't let you know that it's there.

You will be able to get the most out of this article.

You can't use wide-area annihilation magic.

I'm not going to be able to get the best out of them.

You must use powerful single-action magic to draw the god away from the baby.

But the god can see through your intentions.

But the god can see through it.

Phew!

You are the one who reigns supreme, and you will have to get through this scene.

The spear of darkness, the thorns of darkness, the battleaxe of darkness, and the magic of the demon king's specialty, which is the attribute that causes the most damage to the gods, are deployed to subdue the scene with the precision of a chess game with no room for error.

It's not just a matter of how many times the blade of the holy sword passes by the demon king's side, even if the blade is a weapon that can reap the power of the gods with a cool face.

.........

However, as if to stop the flow of the battle, the god stopped the bodies of Ishan and Kawasaki after cutting away the thorns and securing their temporary safety.

The demon king sensed that something had changed.

"Nisya.

Not to fit a weapon, but not to deploy offensive magic.

I didn't need to look at the baby floating overhead to see the god calling his daughter's name.

Yes.

Using Shinen

"! Yes,

And then there was a word that the demon king couldn't miss.

"Oh, you're going to use it.

The smile disappeared from the demon king's face.

He turned his righteous gaze of contempt to the god.

It's true that this is the only way to get rid of the situation. But...

Just hearing the word "divine flame" made Eshley take a step backwards in her view of the demon king's transformation.

The divine flame is a sacred flame in the teachings of the church that dispels all manner of misfortune and turns a warrior's strong body into a spell of immense magical power.

But, but why use it at this critical juncture?

Do they expect us to use it?

We'll let you use it.

If it works as taught, why didn't you use it in the first place?

Why did the demon king, who is considered a threat, show disgust rather than impatience?

Although the demon king and the brave clashed again, such an out-of-place question came into Eshley's mind because she was too trapped to be calm, or because she was escaping reality.

Then I'll give it to you.

The cutthroat Nissiya was to give it to him.

The fact that the demon king was attacked by this fact, but the wall between the two heroes was thick.

Even the demon king can't easily reach Nisia.

Oh! Will you use the rumored divine flame! Then by all means to me!

You're an idiot, and you're too good for it. I'd love to have you.

Seeing the divine flame from the legend, the joy of being given that power, and dreaming that with that power, they could even overthrow the demon king, Eshri felt the need to stop them with a more sober mind.

But the opposite is true.

If you stop them now, you could certainly get rid of this bad feeling.

But I can't deny the reality that the demon king will kill me instead.

With a saintly heart, you have weighed your own safety against the danger they pose to you.

The result.

All right. My father will grant you both divine fire.

Silence .

In silence, there was nothing to do but stare at the golden flame, different from the flames of life created by Nisia's hands.

Having chosen the self-loathing ending of his own safety, Eshley could only watch as the golden flame was pushed into the breasts of Alben and Majesus.

You'll be gone!

From the edge of Eshley's field of vision, the demon king's magic is released to erase the entire hero with all his might, if it is not added or subtracted.

The spiral whirlpool of red and black magic power collides with the god's defense.

I'm not going to be the only one who can do this.

It was not in time, and as if to answer the mixed feelings of anticipation and anxiety in Eshley's mind that something would change, then the change happened.

It sounded like a thunderstorm.

And then a golden glow that dispelled the demon king's magic.

Oh! This! The power of God?!

It's amazing, the magic is flowing.

The source of the sound came from two people, Arben and Majesus.

The magic that paid off the demon king's magic is gushing forth from the bottom of his body.

Its hue is the same gold as the divine flame that was applied earlier.

Seeing the mixture of excitement and joy, the seemingly divine figure seemed somehow fleeting in Eshri's mind.

Silly, sun god. Why are you so easy to give up your life?

As if to agree with their feelings, the demon king sadly impeaches the gods, with the two excited people at his side as he increases the power of his magic.

.........

The god, no longer listening to the demon king's words, glanced back and pushed the two excited men back.

"Show me your power in my eyes.

"Oh!

"No need to be told!

"Ah.

I didn't want you to push me on that back, I wanted you to stop me.

Still able to turn back, Eshley was pushed by the word of the gods to reach out against the two brave men who were challenging the demon king.

Without a sideways glance, the galloping figure of Arben slashed at the demon king, who was fleshing out and unleashing his magic at a speed never seen before.

From the other side, Majesus deploys the magic of the four attributes of fire, water, wind, and earth from an angle that doesn't hit Alben, and releases magic with a power and speed of composition that you have never seen before, too.

Power beyond human knowledge.

You're going to be able to get to know the magician this easily?

.........

Sadly, or perhaps pityingly, the demon king flicks their attacks.

"He's coming! Our attack will reach the Demon King!

"Ah! We'll take the Demon King's head off!

However, the two of them are excited, perhaps not realizing the expression on their faces, and are trying to overcome the demon king by joining forces with each other, as if their usual disagreement is a lie.

Certainly, their strength is visibly improving.

It's certainly a sight to behold as they battle it out against that demon king.

We will retreat while these two are at bay.

But in the face of the scene, Nissiya calmly announces.

"What's going to happen to those two?

The words seemed to say that the two of them were going to withdraw on the spot.

In fact, Nitsia told him so.

"It's no problem.

And that's all she said when asked by Eshley.

I wanted to ask her what was wrong, but Nitsia wouldn't let me hear it.

She also said.

'I knew you'd spear me at this point!

While dealing with the two men who were attacking him, God was taking action to jump on the baby and secure him.

In order to interfere with the action, the demon king released a magic, but a moment later, the demon king's eyes widened.

Securing the baby with Ishan's body and blocking the attack with Kawasaki's body was within the realm of expectation for the demon king.

But only one action exceeded the demon king's expectations.

Normally, to a god, two babies should be a precious dependency of high magic aptitude.

The amount of magic in Ishaan's holy sword in his hand was too much to break the wards that protected the babies.

Even if they converge and the power is only wielded on the trajectory where the sword is wielded, the baby on the other side will certainly be killed.

The demon king was not so dull that he could not see that, and he immediately understood the intention of the god.

!

God's choice for the Demon King is at hand.

Defend the baby, leaving the baby to die and protecting the one remaining baby in the time available.

Or you can protect the baby in the path of the sword and leave the baby alone to be kidnapped while you protect it.

If you do nothing, then I'll take them both.

There's already a baby between the demon king and the god, and there's no time to prepare for the transition to leap in front of the gods with two people strengthened by divine fire.

Even a demon king is not timeless.

Only at this moment, this moment when he misreads the god's intentions, could the demon king be limited in what he can do.

A choice in less than a thousandth of a second, a moment of time.

"Huh!

Gritting his teeth, the Demon King expressed his frustration for the first time since he came here.

The choice the Demon King made was.

"Sweet, modern demon king.

"Isrealiza!

The end result was that one baby was left to be snatched.

A momentary delay in preventing the divine attack.

With the demon king's leg strength, he leapt ahead and blocked the holy sword with one of his arms.

There was no way the god would miss the opportunity, and he took the silvery white baby, Yukiera, and the dark-haired baby, Satiera, in the demon king's arms.

She shouted the name of the Sun God and tried to kill him, but...

"Watch where you're going, demon king!

"I'll have your head!

With a thirst that bordered on insanity, Alben and Majes leaps out.

Their bodies have lost their original human color and have turned white as ashes.

Farewell. Farewell." "I look forward to seeing you again.

The two's desperate attack caused the demon king in the air to be delayed one more time.

Enjoying the scene, the god showed his first glow of joy.

As they landed, Kawasaki, Nitsia, and Eshley were gathered there.

The divine power from Kawasaki and the power of Nisia's dimensional transition have created a hole in the demon king's space.

The group jumps into that space and disappears.

With a moment's difference, the demon king's magic clears that space, but it's literally one move too late.

"Not yet, not yet, I'm not yet.

I'm not yet

Sleep, dregs of man. And never again will you be part of the reincarnation, O departed soul.

The two men are on the verge of collapsing like burning coals.

The demon king put a stop to the warriors, whose bodies and souls were fueled by the divine flames.

It's just a minute.

The two men who had given their all in a single minute had burned not only their bodies, but their souls as well, into a sleep that would never happen again.

A regret dwells in the heart of the demon king when he thinks of the lives lost by the god who brought back his achievement in the name of their sacrifice.

"How can you be so strong and still have things falling out of your hands?

Controlling his magic, he stood at the entrance buried in the rubble.

With the baby's cry in his arms as background music, the demon king, full of confidence, let out a moment of weakness.

Those who watched the scene quietly closed their eyelids.

Word of the Day

Even powerful objects cannot pick up the drops that fall.
