ep.47 there's something...

night time with darkness.

because the clouds were overcast, the moonlight was not shining, let alone the stars.

there was a gloomy night fog all around.

literally, it's the perfect situation to do something secretly.

so, thinking that luck would follow me in this regard, i proceeded forward carefully through the bush as it was.

but this moment.

contrary to the plan that originally planned to lead only a few subordinates who could move, behind me, about 1,000 soldiers who were specially selected from the entire asmodian legion were sitting behind me.

unlike me, who wears black armor for aggro,

soldiers with black cloth markings on one shoulder while wearing the armor of the allied tribes for camouflage.

in addition, now

although you can't see it from here, in the bush on the other side, other members of the unit, led by general samson, are also disguised as the allied armour.

he was lying on his back, looking around.

although they were in a state of exhaustion, nevertheless, they decided to dedicate their full strength to the final battle.

looking at this, i couldn't help but feel a strange feeling, remembering the situation just before that i still can't believe it.

'i didn't really know the weather, the circumstances, and how things would turn out this well, i hope these demon generals will move according to my opinion...'

the demon generals who roared openly against elias the other day, and who have often shown high self-esteem ever since.

however, at an earlier meeting, they decided to act according to my opinion, and they are now even helping to carry out the operation on a large scale.

to be honest, it was surprising in many ways from my point of view, who was thinking that i did not want to interfere.

and because i wasn't expecting that at all,

i felt a little bit grateful for their help.

'i thought they were hard-nosed and frustrated, but only strong self-esteem... are there any unexpectedly good spots?'

in that way, while revising the evaluation of the generals including samson,

i started to focus on the 'target' that started to appear in front of my eyes again.

'well then... shall we start slowly?'

*

in the thick fog

a time of darkness when the starlight was obscured by clouds, and even the moon lost its light.

in a situation where such a simple atmosphere makes you feel depressed,

soldiers from the elven race, abel and cain, were standing guard at the entrance of the camp with deep dissatisfaction and a piece of anxiety that did not go away in their hearts.

"ha… damn… no matter how unlucky you are, you will probably end up serving as a sentry on a day like this..'

"ahhh… that's the way it is. why is my luck so dirty these days? so, nothing happened."

amel and cain stand, relying on only one torch, in the thick darkness.

at this moment, if they could, they were filled with the thought that they would like to go to bed like the rest of the soldiers in the barracks.

this heavy feeling of fatigue that automatically closes your eyes as your eyes get dim.

it's not just that it's sleep time now that they're struggling to somehow get over it.

the forced march that started yesterday morning and continued all night.

they were the ones who arrived here at the end of the dreadful march in which they ran almost without rest, and their exhausted bodies were constantly demanding a rest even at this moment.

however, unfortunately, what was given to the two was not a sweet rest, but a terrifying sentry mission.

in my mind, i even wanted to lie on the floor like this and not get up forever, but nonetheless, the two of them had no choice but to try their best to keep their minds.

if it is discovered that the person in charge of the sentry has been away from the situation ahead of the battle, it will certainly not end with a light punishment.

however, despite this, their eyes were still slowly closing, being swayed by their instinctive lust for rest.

'common sense, even those guys can't fight more than this in this situation where the siege has just ended.'

'we're not kidding, we're tired too, but if we added those guys who fought like dogs for days, wouldn't it have been better?'

in such a deeply dissatisfied mood, the two try to drive away sleep by forcing their eyelids to rub their eyelids, which feel like they are in a hurry.

at that time…

"… yes?"

"why… why?"

in the next moment, cain suddenly appeared with an expression as if he had run away.

then he began to frown slightly, as if something ominous, as he gazed at the swaying bushes in the dark.

at this, abel was caught in a deep tension for a moment at the sudden change of the friend's atmosphere.

"did something happen? west… are there any enemies at this time?"

abel asks the question again with a trembling voice.

cain did not respond to this, and kept a heavy silence for a while, carefully examining the bushes.

it's like, in the darkness, amongst the hazy bushes...

it was as if there was something there, which only looked like pure darkness here.

"gulp… "

abel begins to swallow dry saliva involuntarily amid cain's heavy silence.

at this, abel began to look at it to see if there was something in the darkness himself.

it was pitch-black darkness.

it's a gloomy atmosphere, as if something is about to pop out at any moment.

captured by the pressure that tightened his heart, he stared intently at it, feeling as if he could see something moving in the darkness that his colleague was talking about.

but,

even after about 10 minutes passed, there was nothing in his eyes.

all i could see was a swaying bush.

nothing particularly stood out.

"ummm… , i must have misunderstood."

"whoa… "

abel sighed deeply at cain's words.

the emotion contained in it was a sense of relief and dissatisfaction with a friend who had made him terrified in this way.

"i really… look straight ahead aren't you terrified of knowing that a real demon attacked you?"

"mi… i'm sorry... in fact, i did a long and private song... i must have seen something in vain because i was so tired... '

cain spoke with a puzzled expression on his face, and abel felt a leak and turned his head forward again.

by the way…

"uh?"

"… and why? are you looking at something in vain again?"

cain's voice filled with embarrassment is heard once again.

at this, abel said in a blunt voice, wondering if this friend was playing a joke.

by the way…

"ruler… you… female… next… next… ."

"next?"

abel turned his head while feeling doubtful at cain's words.

at that time…

"hi?"

-pak!

at the same time as someone's brief greeting, abel's face was dyed in astonishment at the incomprehensible feeling he felt for a moment.

in an instant, what caught his eye was a black flash of light emanating from the black bayonet.

at the same time, abel felt a burning sensation in his throat, and everything felt empty…

it was strange, but at the same time, i was beginning to feel a sense of comfort.

immediately after that, cain's head flying through the air began to appear in abel's eyes, but

his head couldn't think of anything more, and he closed his eyes in deep fatigue.

as long as he was on guard, he had always wished…

*

"it's a surprise!"

"enemy! enemies are attacking!"

a loud noise coming from outside.

memnon, who had been in a deep sleep for a long time, came out of the barracks with only one sword, not even wearing armor.

"what… what? what happened?"

"ruler… general! nice… it was a big deal! demons... demons have attacked!"

"it's a surprise! at this hour? i... how big is the enemy? who is the enemy!"

"that… that… the size of the enemy is currently unknown. the darkness and fog are so thick, and the enemies are disguised as the armor of our allied forces..."

"ね...!"

"it's all… however, according to the reports of the soldiers, they said that they could see the demon king among the enemies! the demon king in black armor with a black greatsword!"

"what? mind… devil?"

a surprise attack from an unexpected enemy.

in addition, the appearance of the demon king, a being sufficient to arouse a feeling of fear by its name alone.

a dark shadow was cast on memnon's face for a moment, but he soon came to his senses and began to try his best to somehow solve the situation.

"all.. gather allied soldiers immediately! get ready to camp and fight your enemies!"

"okay, general!"

"damn… i hope these guys are going to outsmart me like this... "

it was a fact that everyone, including memnon, knew that the fatigue of the enemies was more than their own, but never less.

however, nevertheless, the enemies resolutely carried out a surprise attack at this time,

this gave the generals, including memnon, the feeling of being hit in the back of the head.

"ok… would you have watered us like this? demon lord, please don't hit your head right here on my own!"

memnon and his men headed into the mist with such an angry expression on their face.

although the number was only about 100 as the situation was, there was no time to gather more troops now that the enemy's offensive continues.

"let's go! i'm going to go and hit the demon lord's head!"

even in the midst of chaos, he raises his voice to forcibly raise morale.

at that time…

"uh?"

black flashes that twinkle in the mist for a brief moment.

at the same time, an eerie sensation began to fill memnon's face with a reflex of doubt and fear.

however, before he did anything about it...

-kwagwagwang!!!

a huge shock wave that pierces through the mist and flies in this direction.

the moment he saw it, a look of astonishment appeared on memnon's face, but it was already too late.

a black light that covers the whole world in an instant.

memnon and his men's bodies were shattered as they were, engulfed in that terrifying wave of power.

without a clear understanding of what and how they suffered...

ep.48 everyone around you is your enemy!

enemies running around in confusion in darkness and fog.

looking at them, a deep smile began to form on the lips of the corps commander samson who was leading the demon king army.

'indeed… i can see at a glance that the hero is not coming to his senses as the hero said. i hope they will use the armor of those detestable racial confederations in this way.'

unlike humans and elves, demons with excellent night vision that can see through enemies even in the dark.

as a result, samson and his men could easily ravage the confused enemies, while the enemies could not attack demon soldiers wearing the same clothes as themselves except for the black cloth on their shoulders.

even if his identity is discovered, he quickly hides himself and then sneaks up from another place, and the situation becomes a doriad tale.

at first this

it wasn't easy to even distinguish faces in the dark, and there's no room for that in this melee battle, so now they're perfecting the enemy.

it was almost impossible to tell them apart.

"damn! gather all the soldiers of galatia this way! i am oedipus here!"

often how

in any case, i used to see generals raising their voices to call out their allies to end this chaos, and each time his subordinates would

first, they rushed to a place with a trusted commander and tried to form a formation by any means.

but…

-kwagwagwang!!!

each time, the hero's blow flies in that direction without hesitation.

even samson, who was proud of his strength and that he could not lose to anyone, was shocked by that huge shockwave, and the enemies that had gathered at the most were disintegrated in an instant.

in the process, it is a bonus that the commanders who tried to collect the soldiers were killed without doing anything.

a warrior's fighting style that is careful and thorough while maximizing the benefits of his teammates while thoroughly exploiting the chaos of his enemies.

seeing this, samson also began to show a deep smile on his lips, thinking that it was good to leave the overall frame to the hero in this battle.

'honestly, i was a little skeptical at first, but i think he's a pretty reliable guy.'

a warrior who possesses considerable strength as a warrior and is able to roll his head well, and actively utilizes all these things to give them a sure victory.

seeing him like this, samson rejoiced that he had one more trusted companion, and began wielding his favorite weapon, the bone sword, without hesitation.

you are being directed, but that doesn't mean you can't lag behind in your major.

as he ignited the will to compete as a warrior, samson began to run more wildly with the force of a roaring beast.

"come on, you filthy union dogs! i'll wake up these three grandsons and deal with them!"

*

samson wields a new white bone sword and smashes enemies' heads.

watching him unstoppably beat and kill allied soldiers while wearing the armor of his allies, the soldiers of the allied tribes began to be gripped with even greater fear and confusion.

a horrific slaughter that takes place in a situation where it is impossible to distinguish between an enemy and an ally.

this was being reflected in the eyes of ordinary soldiers belonging to the tribal union as if the same ally was attacking the ally.

even the soldiers gathered here usually serve in other places, but there are a lot of people who happened to be gathered here today.

in addition, if the generals raised their voices to resolve the chaos, a shockwave presumed to have been launched by the demon king came from somewhere and immediately annihilated the generals and soldiers.

like that,

in this situation where virtually no one except those belonging to the same unit can be trusted.

the soldiers were eventually forced to make extreme choices in order to survive.

"damn! these dirty demons! die!"

"! now... wait... wait! i... i'm not a demon... heh heh ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

soldiers who had faces they had never seen before, but they were not demons, but decisively slashed the people who shouted.

starting with that, the soldiers immediately started swinging their swords at the allied soldiers they did not know who were next to them.

"heh heh heh!"

"aaaaaah!!"

"damn! such a dirty demon!!"

"isn't your guy really a demon! die quietly!"

a spear and a sword clashing wildly in the dark.

at this moment, they had no idea if the target they were attacking was a real demon or if they were just accidentally attacking their allies.

however, nevertheless, they had no choice but to attack any soldiers with faces they did not know.

in the current situation, it was virtually impossible to tell whether they were an enemy or an ally.

in order for assets to survive in a place like this, they had to kill the 'enemy' in front of them.

as such, in the scene of the punishing mass madness that had begun to provoke extreme confusion and fear, the racial coalition forces eventually started a killing-and-death battle among themselves.

and,

watching these figures that the hero had talked about in advance, the army of demons took a step back and began to observe the situation after they secretly fell into the dark.

feeling physically exhausted from the intense battle that continued from the air campaign to this night attack.

at the same time, while laughing to the fullest at the foolishness of the allied forces dying and killing in front of their eyes.

*

"ugh… ugh… ugh… "

"damn… ! these dirty demons... "

a group of tribal union soldiers who managed to escape with their exhausted and wounded bodies.

this moment

behind their backs, the screams of colleagues who are engaged in a death-and-death battle against the demons or themselves can be heard dizzyingly.

however, they had no means left to help their allies anymore.

"as… how many people are left?"

"it's about a thousand people. i don't know what happened to the rest."

"a thousand people… almost half of them were hit, are you saying... "

damage far beyond what you could have imagined.

bellerophon, the general who was leading them, had no choice but to frown automatically, but he was still thinking that he was lucky.

fortunately, it was bellerophon, which was located on the outskirts of the friendly positions, and was able to escape with even this amount of troops.

it is a self-evident fact that if he and his troops had been a little further inside, they would have been involved in the chaos and caused greater damage.

even in the dirty mood, bellerophon, feeling a sense of relief at first, tried to instruct the retreat immediately after collecting the men.

"for now, go back. the longer we stay here, the more we will get involved. first of all, we retreat to timothy, the closest occupied area from here."

"yes, i understand, general."

so, according to bellerophon's orders, the soldiers began to take the path while harming the darkness.

although so

there were many inconveniences in the march due to the thick fog and darkness still everywhere, but nevertheless, they could

i was able to move forward without scattering, relying on my footsteps.

after the dawn had barely begun and their sight had returned to normal, the march became somewhat easier, and after that they accelerated further and somehow managed to reach timothy.

exhausted and exhausted, they are literally beggars.

to the extent that they had marched for three days and three nights without a break, they began to drag themselves closer to the castle of timothy, forcibly dragging themselves with the thought of wanting to collapse and lie down at any moment.

by the way…

"yes?"

"uh?"

in the next moment, an unbelievable scene began to appear before their eyes.

at this, bellerophon and his soldiers momentarily wondered if they were seeing nothing.

no, the scene in front of my eyes must never have been true, i began to be seized with such a deep astonishment.

all they could see was a fluttering flag.

a black flag that symbolizes the demon kingdom.

it was hung on the highest spire of timothy.

"this… this… how the hell did this happen? why is the demon flag here?"

"i… i don't know either. why is this absurd thing?"

it's a scene that i can't believe even when i'm watching it with my own two eyes.

bellerophon and his men had no choice but to sit still, in shock and despair.

since he had fled in a hurry, he didn't even have any food with him.

in addition, the soldiers were weary from the arduous march. there was no room left to attack anywhere.

in the end, their only option was to force themselves to another nearby location, without even dare to attack the castle in front of them.

but…

they haven't been welcomed anywhere since they arrived.

the flags of demons were already hanging everywhere they went, and there, if not hundreds of defenders, were firmly guarding the castle...

EP.49 A time for sweet rewards

"buy… fat… help me! please… Please save me!"

Cyclops, the leader of the Tribal Union, begging for his life while trembling in fear.

He had a pretty big reputation as a one-eyed general, but…

At this moment, the brave warlord was begging for his life, looking at the little 'girl' riding on top of him.

And, looking down at those Cyclops, a demon girl with silvery white hair and sparkling red eyes.

She said in a voice full of excitement, with a creepy smile on her lips.

"You want me to live… It's not hard to say How many of our demons have you killed so far? Just follow along!"

"Aaaaaaaaaaaah!!!"

With those words, as it is, a demon girl who slashes her sword at the remaining eye color of the Cyclops.

no… Elisa, one of the 4 Heavenly Kings of the Demon King's Guard,

He was enjoying the refreshing feeling as he watched the Cyclops die with the screams of punishment pierced by their own daggers with their entire body painted with blood.

and,

Watching her look like this.

Elisa's mother, Elias, began to show a warm smile on her face, feeling like a mother lion watching a lion cub after a successful hunt.

'Really... It's my kid, but he's grown up really nicely. This is the joy that parents feel, right?'

Elisha shows no blood or tears against humans.

In fact, considering her actual age, she was not only an adult, but also a daughter who had an equal status with her as a bodyguard of the Demon King.

Nevertheless, Elias thought that it was inevitable as a mother to still feel a sense of pride when she saw her daughter like this.

'Then, it can be said that the war has come to an end with this. There are still parts that remain, but that amount will be nothing more than processing the remaining sugar anyway.'

As this operation proceeded successfully, it was able to recover about 70% of the territory of the Demon Kingdom that had been occupied by the enemy.

Although 30% still remained, the area was either coastal or mountainous, isolated from the outside.

In fact, there was almost nothing they could do in the current situation where the main force was dismantled in an instant, and in the current situation where even food was cut off, they could basically not stand for long.

I don't know if they will come again with a large-scale corps, but for now, the possibility is slim.

In other words, in fact, through this operation, the Demon Kingdom was able to overturn the prevailing battle situation and secure a clear victory.

'Of course remain

It will take a little more time to drive out those who are there, but with this, you will no longer have to worry about the blade located under the nape of your neck. a little bit

If you take the time to build up your troops, it will be a matter of time before you can completely drive the Allied Forces out of this land.'

Elias rejoiced at the fact that he was finally able to see the end of a war that had no end in sight.

But at the same time, there was a subtle feeling in her heart that grew with each increase in this feeling of joy.

that… In any case, the person who made the greatest achievement in this war, and the person who once again showed the ability that she has no choice but to acknowledge,

It was a part about 'the warrior'.

'Still, it was a long and private house until we took over Rob... '

Although it was Elias who moved based on the plan he had established with him,

She was the one who had the thought that the hero might have something else up to the end.

However, Elias had no choice but to admit to the actions of the hero who cleared up the situation perfectly like this.

The fact that the hero Ellen had decided to walk the path of the demons while seriously giving up being human.

'I'm sure my daughter is also admitting it, so it's probably funny that I'm more suspicious here... Although she almost died once in the past.'

If the target was a beloved daughter, it would not have been easily passed on.

However, the personal discomfort of the hero is a story limited to himself.

As a result, while Elias felt he needed to get rid of his feelings for the hero, he began to think of several possibilities in this regard.

'The hero is on our side... Then, with this, we no longer have anything to be afraid of. Of course, for a while, we will have to focus our efforts and heal the wounds of war, but if we do well, we can aim for something bigger… '

In this regard, the details are probably beyond her control alone.

The part that needs to be discussed with Beljebeauty, who is the brain of the Demon Kingdom and possesses intelligence beyond her.

Anyway,

For now, with the joy of victory and anticipation for the future in mind,

Elias smiled brightly at his daughter, who was approaching him, holding the cyclops head at him.

I don't know anything else, but as much as that bright smile of my daughter, I promise that I will always protect it from now on.

*

Antioch, which drove out the tribal confederation and completely became the territory of the demons.

There, Samson and other generals were enjoying a fun banquet with alcohol and meat that arrived at just the right time.

"gulp! gulp! kaa... This is the taste! After all, the end of Seungri is sweeter than anything else!"

"That's right, General! The taste of alcohol today is amazing!"

"Isn't all this the work of His Majesty the Demon King and our General Samson! Even in this war, the general's bravery reached the sky."

"haha! Thanks for saying that! Come on, have a drink too! Let's get drunk on this fine day!"

"I will be grateful for the alcohol that the general poured out!"

Samson and the generals are having a good time, sipping a glass of wine and eating snacks without hesitation.

At that moment, Samson's gaze suddenly turned to Elias, who was quietly sipping a glass of wine opposite him.

"Heh heh.. Come to think of it, I almost made a huge mistake with this, because we weren't the only ones who were the protagonists of this war!"

"… .ha.."

Elias let out a deep sigh at Samson's words.

Seeing her like this, Samson got up and approached her with a pleasant smile.

"Come on, Elias, you've worked hard, too, get my cup."

"… Yes, it is."

Elias is not very happy with Samson's words, but offers a cup for the first time.

Pouring the drink into her glass, Samson spoke to her in a voice of joy.

"Now doing

It's a story, but I want to personally apologize for what happened at the previous meeting.

I didn't know that I'm sorry I didn't listen to you more calmly."

At the time, I honestly felt bad, but in the end, as a result of Elias' plan being executed well, the Demon Kingdom achieved a great achievement by recovering most of the lost territory.

As it was necessary to acknowledge the other person's ability for such a point, Samson apologized without hesitation in this regard.

and.

"ah… No... Rather... uh... "

Elias is trying to say something to Samson's apple, but then cuts his words out.

However, not paying much attention to her attitude, Samson said, looking at Elias with his glass full of alcohol.

"Then you will understand that you accepted my apology, so let's make a toast in that sense. For the unity of our corps commanders and for the future of the Demon Kingdom."

"… Yes, it is."

Elias responds with a small smile on his lips in response to Samson's invitation.

In that way, watching the two generals growling at each other during a difficult time and removing each other's sediment, the generals under them smiled more comfortably and started enjoying the banquet again.

"yes? Come to think of it, it seems that there is no one in sight."

"ah… a warrior? If it was him, I know he went out earlier because he had something to do."

"Huh.. this is so, ah, the other protagonist of the day disappears like that and writes it."

"I will go and look for it. It would be difficult for the captain to leave a position like this."

With those words, Rebecca was about to get up from her seat without hesitation.

Unlike when they were openly wary not so long ago, some demon generals began to smile slightly involuntarily when they saw her naturally calling the hero a commander.

*

A small garden located on the outskirts of Antioch.

In this place, which had not been seriously damaged during the battle, I quietly began to approach her in front of me.

"your majesty."

"Are you here, warrior?"

The Demon King is wearing purple armor and taking off only his helmet as the situation is.

But nevertheless, I started to feel my heart pounding again when I saw her still radiating a beauty that couldn't be hidden.

Standing alone under the twinkling moonlight, her inaccessible beauty, as if a goddess had descended, stood out.

and…

Towards such a demon king, I bowed my head with respect and said,

"Thank you once again for taking this personal time, Your Majesty."

It is not a simple greeting, but my words made with sincerity.

To this, the Demon King answered with a calm and beautiful smile on his lips.

"no… I would rather say thank you, hero. Without you, Jim would probably never have the joy it is today."

"You are exaggerating, Your Majesty. Belief is just… "

At the words of the Demon King, I tried to continue my humble words.

However, the next moment.

The Demon King held my two hands tightly as it was, and I had no choice but to blush slightly and stop talking.

"really… Thank you so much, as the lord of this country, I express my sincere gratitude, warrior."

"your majesty… "

"Okay, then it's Jim's turn to keep his promise. Say what you want, warrior. Do you want Jim to hug you again like before? otherwise… "

With those words, the demon king looked at me with charming eyes.

As I looked at her like this, thoughts began to pop up in my head for a moment.

From holding hands and hugging each other, to kissing... or asking for something bigger to follow.

Obviously, since the major I have established this time is so enormous, I started to think that I could aim for that much.

By the way..

"!..."

the next moment,

One fact that I was not aware of because I was engulfed in intense excitement.

Sensing it by chance,

I automatically began to calm the feeling of excitement that was boiling in me.

and...

Then I spoke to the woman in front of me in a calm voice.

"… your majesty. If not, Soshin has a request."

EP.50 A form of love considered perfect

"I have one request."

"What is it? Tell me."

A demon king who answers the warrior's words with a calm voice.

At this moment, the things that Belze Beauty had talked about before began to automatically come to mind in her mind.

To seduce this man in front of him as he pleases, thereby making this strong man's body and mind perfectly his own.

Although I didn't like this way of swaying a man's heart for profit.

The reluctance to do so still lingered in her mind, making her feel a little hesitant.

However, as he had already learned how great the value of a hero was through his past records, the Demon King was well aware that he had to achieve this goal with certainty.

The Demon King prepares to give the hero what he wants while preparing his heart like that.

towards her,

The hero spoke to her in a serious voice.

By the way…

"Your Majesty, will you be able to swear on the Jordan River that you will answer my questions without lies from now on?"

"… Questions?"

A hero who makes a very different request than he had expected.

Not the expressions of affection she expected,

His words to tell the truth about the name of the Jordan River, which means never to tell a lie.

At this, the Demon King automatically nodded his head in response to his request, feeling deeply suspicious.

"If that is what you want… I will do that."

I don't know what kind of questions will come, but I can't say no to what I want to do.

In that way, the Demon King declared that he would not actually tell the lies of the hero's question.

"Thank you, Majesty. If only… I dare to ask your Majesty."

With those words, the warrior looked straight into the demon king's eyes.

The strong will that had been felt since referring to the Jordan River began to grip the demon king with a little tension.

and,

towards such a demon king.

The hero asked her a question with a voice that felt sincerity and earnestness.

"Your Majesty's conviction that I am here right now… What do you think of me as Ellen Savior?"

"!..."

unexpected,

At the same time, the hero's question seemed to shake her inner heart.

At this, the demon king began to hesitate for a moment as to what kind of answer he should give with a hardened expression on his face.

You cannot tell a lie unless you have made an oath in the Jordan River.

At first glance, the behavior of the hero who asked such a question with such a great pledge might be difficult to understand.

However, this moment.

The Demon King knew.

What is the inner heart of the current hero contained in this question?

'The fact that the hero asks Jim such a question in this situation is... It must mean that the wounds from the Hero Party still remain.'

A person who has been hurt once can only feel afraid to trust someone again.

In that respect,

At this moment, the Demon King began to recognize that the hero was afraid to receive 'favor' from him.

Fear of being abandoned again.

Worried that the seed of faith growing in his heart might be trampled again.

This can be said to be the same principle as a dog that has been abused reflexively trembles when someone raises a hand in front of it.

Again, feeling sorry for that fact.

The Demon King once again felt compassion for the pitiful figure of the hero, who had a hard time accepting even pure kindness.

At the same time, in his appearance,

Recalling her past self.

Carefully, at this moment, he began to choose the words he should answer.

Although there is an element of national interest, her sympathy towards this poor man was nevertheless sincere.

If I could offer words of comfort to this man with such sincerity,

This could be an answer that does not go against the rules of the Jordan River.

like that,

The Demon King feels as if he is hugging a baby who is insecure about being loved.

He spoke in a voice full of warmth to the hero in front of him.

"I don't know if Jim's expression is correct… Maybe I should describe it."

As he said those words, the Demon King began to blush slightly without realizing it.

Feeling the emotions that I have experienced somewhere in the past,

The Demon King said as he looked at the hero in front of him.

"Important person… You could say that."

*

The demon king holding hands with me in front of my eyes.

Seeing her like this, my heart was captivated by a deep desire that came from my instincts for a moment.

A demon king who is more beautiful than any woman I have ever seen.

At this moment, I didn't even know if I could really have her if I wanted to.

I didn't know if I would be able to take her lips, indulge her body, and pour the lust that was wriggling within me into her.

That was the deal between her and me the other day,

For me, who perfectly fulfilled the trading conditions at this moment,

I had a legitimate right to claim this.

But…

In this regard,

A crucial fact that I realized in an instant gave me a bit of a chill out of my excitement.

it at this moment,

The sensation of trembling in my fingertips.

The demon king's hand was trembling slightly, as if something was offended.

I could feel that there was a feeling of hesitation that was not easily hidden in it, even though I was trying to suppress it as much as possible.

'I'm reluctant... are you doing it? The Demon King... now... this situation?'

In simple terms, this could be thought of as a slight tremor caused by simple tension.

But the moment I felt this repulsive feeling from her,

I'm starting to feel like I need to point out one thing for sure.

what she thinks of me

At this moment, what is her true intentions holding my hand?

'Until now, the Demon King seemed to show affection to me at first glance, but… Is that really the Demon King's true intentions?'

A pair of men and women meet to get to know each other and build up their hearts.

In the process, they experience different things and sometimes face difficulties, but they eventually overcome them,

The two hold each other's hands, confirm their affection for each other, and live happily as one in the last name of family.

pure love.

A very ordinary love that the world thinks of, which has the meaning of pure love.

A way of love that may be considered common or common in a way, like clean and simple water.

But because of that,

It is worth pursuing as longing for its innocence.

It is a form of love that is considered perfect, and the form of love that I ultimately want to achieve.

However, at this moment.

In my heart, I suddenly began to question whether this love I am currently doing can be called pure love.

The fact that my heart towards the Demon King is sincere was something I could be sure of myself.

The love for her that can be clearly felt even in this moment.

I can do anything for her, I want to see her, and I want to share love with her.

But…

Away from my mind, I began to feel the need to move on with one fact clear.

What is her sincerity in front of me right now?

For the Demon King, how is this current situation being accepted?

'Maybe the Demon King hates me, but I'm still doing this forcibly because of my sense of duty as a monarch...'

I knew my strategic values ​​better than anyone else.

With this type of person, even if you feel rejection inside your heart, you will have no choice but to accept it.

As a result.

I came to think that maybe I was forcing myself to do something the Demon King hates simply because of the terms of the contract.

'Even though there is a contract... I can't force a woman to do something she doesn't like because of my greed.'

It wasn't anything else, it was a matter of sharing love between men and women.

If this happens in the absence of affection, it is effectively ****.

As a result.

Regarding this fact, I asked the question of an honest answer to the demon king in front of me...

To find out how much she likes me

I posed a question that contained the meaning of the pledge of this world, the Jordan River.

and

To this, the Demon King answered me with a slight blush on his face.

A 'precious person'...

It was a statement that seemed to alleviate the feeling of anxiety in my heart.

*

An answer that makes you feel a little shy while speaking by yourself.

At this, the Demon King tasted the sensation of his face heating up in an instant,

I said to the hero in front of me, trying to suppress it as much as possible.

"that… What do you want to end with this question? Of course, it may be said that it is quite a big thing that the Jordan River asked Jim the question, but we are still far from rewarding you for your work."

Even so, it cannot be construed as answering a single answer to the hero who gave him a victory that will go down in history.

So the Demon King regained his composure again and spoke to the hero in front of him.

"Come on, let me tell you what you want. Whatever Jim can give me, I'll give it to you."

A demon king who speaks with a voice that contains the dignity of a monarch.

At her words, the hero blushed slightly and began to react as if hesitating something.

And after a while.

The words that came out of the warrior's mouth as if he had finally made up his mind.

that…

"Your Majesty, me and… Could you start with your lover?"

"!..."

EP.51 Can you afford it?

The Demon King's declaration to talk about anything.

Several thoughts flashed in my head about this, but

As a result, what I was supposed to choose was already decided.

The Demon King who expressed me as a 'precious person'.

But unfortunately,

I could see that the meaning contained in this was a little lacking to mean clear affection.

As the monarch of a country, a demon king who stands above many people.

She had a lot of precious people, starting with close acquaintances.

Perhaps the meaning of "precious" that the Demon King talks about means that he sees me as one of those numerous people.

There are no negative feelings, but that means that they are not close enough to be called lovers.

Of course, this was up to interpretation, but in this regard, I had the desire to take this opportunity to confirm the relationship between me and the Demon Lord more clearly.

More than one kiss or one physical relationship,

How can I establish myself as a special being in the heart of the Demon King?

At the same time, a way to exclude other 'competitors' that may exist in advance.

In this regard, I am determined to choose the most obvious and clear path,

As a result.

As soon as I made up my mind, I told the Demon King.

This is a confession that asks me to 'start' the relationship between me and my lover.

"… kite… sign… ?"

Immediately thereafter,

The Demon King who shows a sign of hesitation for a moment about my confession.

I was told to talk about anything for sure, but even to her like that, the word lover would have no choice but to resonate with her quite a bit.

If my liking for her does not exceed a certain level, I will leave as is.

Even if she had a certain amount of affection, she could be burdened with the fact that she was dating someone else from the position of sitting in the position of the monarch of a country.

In some cases, no matter how much a request is made in such a situation, it can be said that it is a bit difficult.

But… the next moment,

I want to keep the chances of these failures as low as possible.

Immediately, the demon lord began to speak quickly so as not to give him time to think deeply.

"Of course, yes.

So I'm not asking Your Majesty to be serious about it right now. To be precise, it means to get to know each other lightly...

I think it would be better if you accept it as a kind of special friend."

"special… friend… ? oh that. So, is there such a meaning as a lover between humans?"

A demon king who asks questions with a slightly confused feeling in my words.

Regarding this, I said, 'It's not that serious to be a lover.' With a light expression on her face that contained the meaning, she said to her in front of her eyes.

"Yes, of course that

In some cases, it develops into a more serious relationship later on. It starts as a friend who can easily depend on each other to the end.

Having a lover is also common among humans. If you get to know each other like that and a better person appears or you don't agree with each other,

It's like breaking up lightly again."

"Hmm… "

In fact, it was a world where free love was commonplace among commoners, even among the aristocrats.

It is because of this background that twins who openly treat NTR in the first place may appear.

Of course, among the so-called noble nobles, there were many cases where they insisted on a classic and sophisticated romance, but there is no need to talk about it here.

So, while taking out the poison contained in the word lover as much as possible...

No, by making it look like it was omitted.

I started paying close attention to the reaction of the Demon King in front of me.

"You are a special friend… But still, being a lover is... Well… "

Even at a glance, the attitude of the Demon King seems to have caused some confusion between the existing common sense and my words.

Regarding this, I thought of pushing her back by adding a few more words.

I decided to let her think about this for now.

Here, if you openly brush your mouth wrong, it could have the opposite effect.

In this situation where her judgment is clouded, if she pushes her too hard, there is a risk of causing rejection.

As I watched the demon king's eyes, I was caught in deep tension and kept silent.

and…

After that brief moment when one second feels like several hours has passed,

The Demon King looked at me and answered with a cautious voice.

"ah… I get it. In any case, if you want it, it would be the right thing to do."

"ah… !"

"that… So from today, you are Jim's lover. ah… I wish you all the best in the future."

"you… yes! wealth… My body is lacking, but I will take care of you in the future, Your Majesty!"

The figure of a demon king who blushes and speaks with a trembling voice.

About this,

I was instantly seized by a strong urge to embrace the beautiful and lovable woman in front of me.

However, I was forced to hold back these emotions by biting my tongue.

I started to calm myself down with a really hard time wiping out my jumpy joy.

'Right now, I have just washed the rice and put the rice on it. You can't open the lid of the pot already. There is no need to rush, step by step, at my own pace, I just need to build a closer relationship with the Demon King.'

Although the word "friend" was emphasized a little, the fence named "lover" had a great meaning in many ways.

It means that from this moment on, the way to legally approach the Demon King has been opened.

Thinking of cultivating the road to the best of my ability in the future,

A deep smile began to form on my lips.

Somehow, with a determination to get her heart in her hand.

*

"therefore… Is it really that he was taken aback by the hero's words and accepted the confession?

Beljebeauty begins to show a really complicated expression while looking at the demon king in front of her.

At this, the Demon King looked like a child scolded by his mother, slowly paying attention to his subordinates and said:

"uh… It was unavoidable. Because it was Jim who said to ask for anything in the first place."

"ha… "

"Ha... But isn't that good enough? This is just a lover in the sense of being a special friend. Belze Beauty It's never something you're worried about."

"...But, first of all, a lover is a lover, isn't it? If this happens, even if the hero walks hand in hand with His Majesty the Demon King, nothing can be said about it."

"Yeah… but… "

The demon king blushes as if he was quite embarrassed by Belze Beauty's words.

Seeing the Demon King who seemed to have realized what he had done so late, Belzebeauty said in a blunt voice.

"Then we hugged each other, we kissed, and then… ummm... anyhow. Once you've become a lover, you'll want to do something like this now. Can your majesty be able to handle it?"

"that… what is that... If I politely decline from my side... "

"What would happen if you refused like that, but the hero got hurt and went wild? Just as His Majesty the Majesty was worried in the first place."

"… uh... "

The appearance of the Demon King, who seems to be struggling quite a bit, not like her, at Belze Beauty's successive fact-bombing.

Seeing this appearance of the strongest demon in existence, Beljebeauty began to get caught up in the feeling of not knowing where to start educating this friend.

On the other hand, the Demon King is quite capable and has risen to the top in some areas.

However, even she had almost no experience in this kind of dating field.

It may not have been easy to deal with the hero who had confessed to her like 'Let's start lightly like a friend'.

'Even so... The Demon Lord is not an idiot either, how did he get caught up in such a shallow number...'

It seemed that something suddenly came to mind about that fact, but Belze Beauty reflexively ignored this fact.

What was important now was the fact that the Demon King and the Hero became 'lovers' through this.

Even if it was wearing a special friend's mask, Belze Beauty was also aware of the fact that it was never meant to be light.

'But even so, separating Your Majesty and the Hero at this point can be counterproductive... '

I'd rather not know if there was no relationship. In any case, if she tried to separate Lee Sang, who was officially her lover, the side effects would be very serious.

If the relationship between the demon king and the hero, who is currently the most powerful force in the Demon Kingdom, deteriorated, even the worst possible disaster could occur, in which the best victory was lost.

'In that case, I'd have no choice but to make the most of this situation here. Anyway, considering our original keynote, this might be an opportunity... '

Regardless of this or that, the ultimate goal is to become a situation in which the Demon King can completely capture the heart of the hero and give him complete control.

In my opinion, this work could be of great help in achieving that goal,

In this regard, Belze Beauty began to quickly roll her head.

'Even though I was unexpectedly attacked here... Leave it somewhere, because at the end of the day, you will always have a leash around your neck.'

Beljebeauty, making plans of its own, devises a way to feed that vicious warrior with one shot.

However, now she has not noticed.

At this moment, in front of her, the image of the Demon King who is holding back the corner of his mouth that is about to rise slightly...

EP.52 A hero is... great.

"yes?"

"Ugh!..."

Rebecca came out to find the hero during the banquet.

But immediately after that,

Rebecca ran into a person she didn't want to see personally.

"to… Elisa... "

Elisa, one of the 4 Heavenly Kings of the Demon King's Guard, and the daughter of the corps commander Elias, who was her superior in the past.

As soon as she met her face, Rebecca immediately bowed her head and bowed.

"uh… So, the name is obviously… Was it Rebecca? As the hero's lieutenant."

"B..Yes! That's right!"

Elisa recognizes herself at once unexpectedly.

However, a sentence began to automatically output in Rebecca's head about this.

'damn… ruined. After all, out of many, many people, this person... '

Among the 4 Heavenly Kings, Elisa is the one she fears the most.

Although there was no direct contact, Rebecca knew from one or another experience.

The lady of the bodyguard with the appearance of this beautiful girl in front of me,

The fact that if you want to survive for a long time, you should never be close to anyone.

'Even though he is an enemy, he is a man who tortures and kills humans by bursting with madness. Such a person is not sane. There... when I think about that... uh... '

So even at this moment, I shudder at the memories of that time that make me feel chilly just by thinking about it for a while...

Rebecca bowed her head, eagerly waiting for the monster in front of her to go somewhere else.

By the way…

"By the way, where are you going in such a hurry now? The banquet has just begun."

"ah… me, that's... The captain had gone somewhere and was on his way to find him."

"If you are the boss… Are you talking about a warrior?"

"Yeah, that… yes. Elisa. Still, he is one of the protagonists of this war, but he hasn't been seen since before... "

"Ugh… That's right."

Rebecca talks about it as it is, without even having the time to look around at Elisa's question.

and,

Hearing Rebecca's words, Elisa gave her a slightly subtle smile and said to her.

"Okay then, let's help Elisha find something special."

"you… Yeah? Oh no. Goo.. you don't have to.."

Rebecca is captured by Elisa's unexpected remarks, as if being struck in the back with a hammer.

However, Elisa, who had no way of knowing her inner feelings, showed a pure smile and said to the 'young' junior in front of her.

"it's okay. No need to be so burdened. Even though it looks like this, I am confident in finding people."

"that… Is that so?"

Elisha's words, if interpreted simply, are only to speak of outstanding abilities.

But…

'Does that mean that if you refuse here, you will go to wherever you are and blow away your palms?... Ah... No, it won't be that far anyway... '

For some reason, from Rebecca's point of view, it was Elisa's story that never sounded normal.

In the end, Rebecca, who could not refuse this 'favor', went in search of a hero with Elisa.

So the two of them wandered around Antioch for a while, looking for places where there might be a hero, but surprisingly, the figure of the hero did not come into their eyes.

'Ugh... where the hell did the boss go? You have to show up quickly so that I can get away with this scary woman even just a little bit... '

Unlike Elisa, who is looking for a hero with a normal feeling,

Rebecca was experiencing the feeling that her lifespan was being cut apart every second because of the fear of what would happen if she faltered even at this moment.

At that time, the anxious feelings that were in Rebecca's heart were growing...

"By the way, you said you made quite a bit of achievement in this war, didn't you? He was active in the vanguard as a lieutenant of the hero."

"ah… you… yes! What… cow… To be honest, it's a shame to call it a public service, but..."

Rebecca responds with a strong sense of tension to Elisa's sudden attitude.

On the other hand, seeing her like that, Elisha interprets this as just that the other person is nervous because of her status, and continues the conversation in a light tone.

"You don't have to be so humble. Because I have already heard of that brave man and to what extent you guys have done it."

"no… In fact, what we did... we just followed the captain and assisted him a little. In fact, most of the majors were established by the general alone."

In the sense of simple humility,

Or Rebecca wasn't talking about this because she became more humble as a result of her survival instinct from fear.

As she said, in fact, what she and 100 of her companions did in this war was nothing more than choosing a hero's sidekick.

The arrows and magic of the enemies that rained towards them were returned to nothing in an instant,

Afterwards, the figure of a warrior who scrambled through tens of thousands of enemies and annihilated everything in sight.

he once

When swinging the sword, dozens or hundreds of enemies disappeared as it was in ashes, and even after demonstrating such strength, the hero never felt tired.

He swung his sword as it was, and mercilessly cut through the enemies that attacked like a swarm of bees.

In addition, although it was not clearly understood at first, she and her companions, who were fighting alongside the hero, were affected by the enormous magical power the hero was dealing with, and their individual fighting power even improved.

Literally alone, the dealer, the tank, and the hero who did all the buffs and checks, the terrifying performance of the hero.

In that situation, all Rebecca and her companions did was simply place the spoon safely next to such a hero.

"really… There was very little we did. Of course, the captain said that alone was helpful enough, but I don't think I have the right to say anything else about my achievements with this."

Rebecca's candid remarks from the heart.

In this regard,

At this moment, Rebecca's mind once again had a scene that she would never forget for the rest of her life...

After blocking the enemy's attack for them, the dignified figure of the hero who cut the way to the castle immediately began to be drawn clearly.

at that time..

"Ugh… So did you."

"!"

Elisha looks like she is very interested in hearing Rebecca's words.

Then, she turns to Rebecca, something different from just before...

When interpreted from Rebecca's point of view, she began to open her mouth with a voice of deep excitement, as if something was about to happen.

"Yeah, definitely a hero is great. Because I also received a lot of help from the hero in the process of attacking Rob the other day."

"that… Has anything like that ever happened?..."

Elisa begins to recall the image of the hero who appeared to save herself from a crisis.

The image of that time is still deeply etched in Elisha's mind.

She was wounded with powerful enemies besieging her front and back.

In a desperate moment of crisis, the man literally came down from the sky and stood in front of her.

It was a moment, but

A warrior who gave her a sense of reassurance and security, as if a strong yet thick wall was protecting her.

Recalling that scene, Elisha said with a warm smile on her lips.

"Honestly, first

When I saw her, I thought she was an incredible person in many ways because her mother had a job, but… As time passed and we fought together

I found out, that this man is something you can trust."

"ah… "

Elisha tells a story similar to how she came to trust the hero.

Elisha's face was slightly red as she was telling the story...

Through her appearance,

Rebecca began to feel a little sympathy with the woman in front of her in an instant.

But…

'Ah... no... wait a minute... Seriously, there's no way that Elisa can trust anyone in a normal way! this… Could this be it?

In this way, pretending to trust him, he promises to one day insert a blade into the back of the warrior's head... '

Unfortunately,

Such small emotions quickly began to be overshadowed by the overwhelming fear he had always had.

It is difficult to easily change the existing impression from the beginning, as it was the worst beyond the bad level.

Of course, in this regard, Rebecca was also aware that she was interpreting the situation too badly.

However…

'That's Elisa! It's normal to think that even though they're talking warmly on the outside, they're preparing to rip the back of the head off the inside!'

Apparently, her thinking circuit about the existence of Elisa, who had actually seen something before her eyes, had already been established a little more firmly.

In that way, Elisa felt a sense of intimacy while listening to the story of a junior who had a similar experience to her, whereas Rebecca's anxiety only started to increase in a strange way.

"yes? Oh, there it is."

"you… Yeah? ah… "

In the next moment, the figure of the hero finally starting to be seen by the two of them.

Seeing the hero who seemed to be with someone who could not be seen from this side, Elisa and Rebecca tried to approach him as they were.

By the way…

"**, with me… Could you start with your lover?"

"!?"

"!!!!"

One of the reasons Rebecca doesn't trust Elisha...

EP.53 I fell in love with a hero
