Episode 249: Dream in the game becomes reality

55. Expected Scenario (3)

After the Great War of the Mythical Age, the Elyos were kicked out of Rondel along with the Demons and were forced to migrate to another planet.

After that, like the demons, they became unable to descend on Rondel of their own accord, but unlike the devil worshipers who supported the demons, the Elyos were able to descend with only the backup of the Sepia Church with the same tendency, so the difficulty of descent can be said to be slightly lower. You can.

However, the number of advents of the Heavenly King was actually less than that of the Demon King, because the sacrifices of saints and saints were necessary for his descent.

So even if the Demon King descends, the Heavenly King's attempt to descend will be a last resort.

The most recent descent of the Heavenly King occurred in 1,200, when Rondel was in great danger due to the Crimson Demon Lord Arc Scarlett.

It is a very famous anecdote in which a saint and a saint sacrificed their lives to bring down the Heavenly King and defeat Arc Scarlett.

In other words, the descent of the Heavenly King is a bigger event than the descent of the Demon King... … .

"Are you really Heavenly King Heriel?"

The problem is that neither he, the saint, nor Ivril, the saint, ever hoped for the coming of the King of Heaven.

Therefore, despite the great news of the coming of the Demon King, the saint had no choice but to express this question.

They didn't make it happen, but the Heavenly King descended on Rondel on their own?

No matter how much the devil is brought up, this is by no means a normal situation.

"Hoo? "Do you doubt me?"

The Heavenly King spread his four pairs of wings wide on both sides.

Then, Heriel felt a vast divine power that surpassed that of a saint.

An appearance that makes you realize that his self-introduction as the King of Heaven is not a boast.

However, there was no need for him, a saint, to bow his head unconditionally.

Saints were also special beings appointed directly by the goddess.

"I acknowledge that you are Heavenly King Heriel. However, I would like you to explain how he was able to descend alone."

The corners of Heriel's eyes twitched at the saint's bold response.

Then he approached the saint, looked down at him using his tall stature, and said,

"Sepia is very busy right now. Because of this, the barrier surrounding the heavenly world and the demonic world has been temporarily weakened. "It's to the point that if the Heavenly Kings join forces, they can descend on their own."

Gingaminga However, thinking that the King of Heaven was not one to lie, the saint accepted his argument and asked:

"So that would mean that the Demon Lord also used the same method to descend on Rondel?"

"Yes."

The Heavenly King nodded, folded his spread wings and curled the corners of his mouth.

"I guess I'm not that stupid."

At the same time, as before, he showed complete disregard for the saint.

The saint's anger boiled inside him, but he soon had no choice but to ask about the existence of the devil.

"Can we find out which demon lord has descended?"

"I don't know for sure. "But they are choosing two candidates."

"What if you say it's those two?"

The saint had to harden his expression at the name of the Demon King that followed.

"Dark Square and Arc Scarlet."

It contained the name of Arch Scarlet, who had pushed Rondel to the brink of destruction.

"It is very likely that one of those two has descended. Worst case… … ."

-gulp.

"Worst case?"

"It may be that the two descended together."

But that was nothing compared to what followed.

Arc Scarlet alone is scary enough, but two demon lords could be together... … .

Naturally, the saint became serious.

"Now that I think about it, where did the saint go?"

"yes?"

"How can it be this unpleasant? "Not only a saint but even a saintly woman ignores the coming of the Heavenly King."

The saint tried to respond by saying that it was your fault for appearing without warning, but why it was our fault.

"Actually, the saint has lost her mind because she has fallen for one man."

I thought this was an opportunity to screw Ivril, so I said this.

Of course, the King of Heaven's face couldn't help but frown.

However, in the ensuing situation, the saint froze in place.

"sorry. I was working outside. "Please talk to me, not the low-level saint who is causing trouble."

This is because with perfect timing, Saint Ivril said those words as she entered the saint's room.

"Is she a saint?"

"Nice to meet you. Heavenly King Heriel. "My name is Saint Ivril Barnet."

And Heriel's expression became interested when she saw Ivril's sharp eyes despite her innocent appearance.

"At least he seems like a smarter person than a saint."

"thank you."

The saint thought of Adrian as he watched the saintess walking with great strides, and unknowingly avoided his gaze. Heriel looked Ivril up and down and said,

"How about spending the night with me while I stay in Rondel?"

It is a story that is bound to be unpleasant to those who listen to it.

However, Heriel, the Heavenly King, seemed to not think so and said that he would be gracious.

Ivril responded leisurely to his suggestion without changing her expression.

"I'm sorry, but there is someone I have in mind."

"It's surprisingly pure."

"It has to be that way. "It's only my first year as a saint."

Saying that, Ivril changed the topic.

"So how do you plan to catch the Demon King?"

"I heard that they have a compass to chase demons in the Holy Land. "I hope you take advantage of that."

He showed interest in holy relics, wondering if no matter how much he was a Heavenly King, he would not be able to immediately find the Demon King who was hiding his true identity.

But Ivril shook her head, saying it was pitiful.

"It went back to its original owner."

"Original owner?"

"Yes, there was a person who donated it, but once a problem arose between the saint and him, he took it back out of resentment."

The King of Heaven looked at the saint as if he felt pitiful.

"Then let me get that compass again. "There is an easy way, so there is no need to search for it."

The King of Heaven's response was simple.

It is not a discussion of borrowing, but a definitive statement of accepting.

It was a look that showed what he thought of the members of Rondel.

"Let me make a suggestion."

However, the saint's answer was ambiguous.

Thanks to this, the King of Heaven reacted in an absurd way.

"The devil has descended. Don't you know that only by defeating that demon lord will stability come to your life?"

"Of course I know. However, the owner of the compass is not a person who only believes in other people's claims and moves accordingly."

"what? "Someone else's claim?"

An expression that says what kind of bullshit is that?

Ivril shrugged her shoulders and said.

"It means that the opponent is a formidable person."

"Who is that?"

Heavenly King Heriel narrowed his eyes as if he would not leave her alone, concluding that the saintess must be a very arrogant person to describe her in this way.

"This is Prince Adrian L. Lawrence. "He is the owner of the Duchy of Lawrence."

The owner of a mere principality, not even an empire?

Heriel tilted her head as if she didn't even know Rondel's personal information.

"He is a person whom the saint admires."

"her?"

"I distinguish between public and private life."

I thought that a saint would be a bit better than a saint, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

The King of Heaven looked at the two people in turn, as if asking if they were joking.

"First, let's ask Prince Lawrence for a compass."

"done. "I'll just go and get it myself."

The King of Heaven seemed displeased with this situation and declared that he would take action himself.

He spoke coldly to the saint.

"You follow me around."

"I'm sorry, but please consider me a saint. "I have a lot of work to do."

"what?"

The King of Heaven laughed out loud at the absurdity, as he had never expected the saint to be such an uncooperative person.

No matter how cool a woman with a clear opinion is, isn't there a limit to it?

Thanks to this, the gaze of the Heavenly King, who had been looking at Ivril with eyes full of favor, became cold.

"Then, I understand that the first part of the Heavenly King's activity plan is to go to Prince Lawrence to borrow a compass."

The problem was that Everil did not make any additional excuses, but instead showed respect in a businesslike manner and then turned her back.

As she leisurely left the room, the King of Heaven could not help but say a word.

"After everything is finished. "I will definitely pay for this rudeness."

Because of the commotion, high-ranking priests and holy knights were flocking around, so the Heavenly King's eyes became sharp.

Such humiliating treatment.

"Then guide me. "To that Adrian."

The saint was startled by the bloody spirit of the Heavenly King.

'Why are you fucking with me?'

Thanks to this, the saint felt like dying.

* * *

Long black hair with straight cut bangs.

Dark Square, who has a hairstyle commonly called a hime cut, looked at Ark Scarlett, who had her red hair tied into cute pigtails, and gave a look that showed a variety of emotions.

This was the same for Arc Scarlett, who faced her old colleague after the stage.

Thanks to this, an awkward silence fell between the two, and Dark Square, who looked pretty but turned out to be male, spoke up.

"What are you doing?"

Of course, the answer that came back was not good.

"What are you doing, you bastard? It's because of you that I'm going through this humiliation. Damn it."

If you think about it, it means that the cause was the fault of fellow Demon Lords who played a prank on the advent of Ark Scarlet.

Dark Square agreed, saying that was true, but then shook his head.

"No, for something like that, you seemed too lively on stage?"

"Well, that's… … ."

Arc Scarlett was pushed around at first, but has recently come to really enjoy being an idol.

But I couldn't fully share these feelings with Dark Square.

She was a charismatic and symbolic figure in the demon world.

Because of this, Arc Scarlet desperately tried to change his mind.

"But it seems like you somehow succeeded in descending as well. "I guess it's not that different from mine, huh?"

"… … ."

Yes.

Following Ark Scarlet, Dark Square also made similar threats and threats, but could not escape the pranks of its fellow demon lords.

As a result, the amount of power he currently possessed was not much different from that of Ark Scarlet.

"Ooh, who? friend?"

And I thought that the future fate of this dark square would not be much different because it caught the eye of a person it should not have to face.

When he appeared, the black dragon Branguiche was walking.

"Adrian told me to go quickly and I said something. "You showed up again?"

Arc Scarlett realized later that his appearance was due to the master-servant contract between himself and Adrian, but now he could not help Dark Square escape.

Branguiche, who figured out the identity of Dark Square at a glance, curled the corners of his mouth and said.

"It would be nice for Asuka (Ark Scarlett) to have a new colleague."

"W-what is it?"

Like sausages, one after another, Ark Scarlet and then Dark Square were captured by Branguiche.

Thanks to this, Ark Scarlet had to sigh deeply.

It was the first time that the characteristics of demons felt so pathetic.

Prince of Lawrence.

I made a schedule with my aides, Gregory and Count Elfrid, to change the leadership of Reese Island.

Reese's Island is a country with an aristocratic system, but what is unique is that it is a country without a king.

It can be said to be a union of city-states where influential noble families divide and rule over regions and cooperate with each other.

However, because Reese Island was located between the Tetatron continent of the Prius Republic and the Triton continent of the Six Eastern Countries, it built its wealth through trade, and although it was a country with a mediocre caste system without a king, it had a fairly strong military power.

The problem is that this country is overly wary of the approach of external powers.

Although it was a country that grew through trade, it had a very closed nature politically.

"Are you going to attack right away without warning?"

"No, we still need to give you a few warnings. "If we continue to refuse to respond, we will have no choice but to take a hard line to protect the citizens of that country."

Although they say it is for their own sovereignty, it is the harsh people who suffer from the tight upper echelons in emergency situations.

That is why we did not hesitate to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries.

From now on, the political and forceful pressure we will exert on Reese Island will serve as a good example.

The situation was not leisurely enough to consider each cause one by one and take action.

"All right. Then, we will send a warning as the Rondel Peace Organization, and we will also send a warning in the name of the four member countries of the empire."

"Yes, please."

If there was a threat like this, I would usually bow down and come in, but in any world there are bound to be old-timers with whom you cannot communicate.

I decided that the leadership of Recess Island were just such people.

"What are you going to do if they don't give in even after warning?"

I answered Gregory's question immediately.

"I will go myself."

"It would be a clear warning."

After that, we talked about various things.

How much time did you spend like that?

"Go, Your Highness!"

An unexpected guest came to visit me.

"The saint of the Sepia Church and the person who calls himself the Heavenly King visited together!"

I tilted my head and had to look at Gregory and Count Elfrid to see if I had heard the Minister of the Palace's words correctly.

And then.

-Quaaaang!

Gongwangseong shook with an intense explosion.
