by fnovelpiaOur group’s guide, Siella, gave us one warning before we arrived at the Demon King’s Castle.
The Demon King never defends. The walls that block her residence are used as deadly weapons.
Each stone that makes up the wall is not an ordinary stone that would be used in a human castle, but a stone imbued with magical power that can only be mined from the depths of the underworld, carved into units of tens of meters.
It is said that tens of thousands of undead were mobilized to build it up to a height of tens of meters.
Its weight and size are so enormous that an ordinary human would not dare to lift it.
That’s why, if you hold it and throw it, it can show a more terrifying power than any shell.
In other words, to the Demon King, the wall is not a means of defense, but rather a type of howitzer.
“Eww!”
I screamed in horror as I saw those enormous boulders flying towards me.
-bang!
The huge blocks crashed down near the terrain where our group was standing, completely destroying the area.
A tremendous amount of vibration, noise, and dust came crashing down on us.
“shi, shit! You said mate! Clap! Why are you attacking me! ”
Since my abilities were sealed, I was busy avoiding the deadly attacks rather than kicking away the flying bricks.
I don’t know about Han Se-young, but if I get hit by that piece of debris, my soft body will turn into a crushed persimmon.
“This guy….”
Even the peerless hero Han Se-young seemed bewildered by this unrealistic sight, as he swept aside the flying bricks with his fist and muttered curses.
“Indeed, Demon King, each and every one of your attacks is amazing! If you take that head-on, it’ll be a threat to even me!”
-Wooow!
Siella smiled curiously and gathered black magic in her hand. Then, when she stretched out her hand, black magic was released and a wall of skeletons holding swords and bows appeared before her eyes.
‘Oh! You’re stopping this?’
The wall of skeletons that suddenly appeared bounced off the bricks flying fiercely.
I thought the wall, made of fragile bones, would collapse with a single attack, but as if Siella had used her magic to counter it, it held up sturdily even as bricks continued to fly and pound upon it.
“All this way.”
At that sound, we hurriedly hid behind the wall, like cats hiding in the shade to escape the heat.
-Ku-kung!
Another brick flew and hit the wall of the skeleton. The wall blocked the front, so he was safe from the flying brick.
“Are there any crazy bitches like that….”
The warrior, Geum Tae-yeon, hid behind the wall and muttered with a voice full of sincerity.
Well, it would be impossible not to react in shock when you throw a piece of your own house to repel intruders.
“Even a single nail in the Demon King’s castle is imbued with the Demon King’s magic. When invaders come in like this, the Demon King tears up the castle’s materials and repel the invaders. It may seem ridiculous, but as you can see, it is an efficient attack.”
“I didn’t want to know that….”
It would be really funny to think that the Demon King, who is certainly called the king of all demons, would repel enemies with the clubs that make up the collective.
However, from the perspective of the person being attacked, it was not funny at all.
The huge debris flew at a crazy speed of at least several dozen kilometers per hour, destroying the entire area as if it had been detonated with dynamite.
Thanks to this, the surrounding area was filled with huge craters as if it were a moon, gradually turning the plain into a hilly area.
“For now, we have a defensive barrier, but just in case, I’ll set up a sacred barrier to block enemy attacks. In the meantime, Snow White, please cast a wide-area spell to remove all of those bricks.”
-Pfft!
Marel’s staff began to glow. Soon, a warm, white beam of light shot out from the staff, forming a circle that enveloped the group in the shape of a baseball field.
“Perhaps, you don’t know that we have the Demon King’s ‘match’. We have to break through that barrage and move forward.”
“You’re crazy! If you get hit with something like that, you won’t be able to salvage a single bone!”
“Damn it, you should be casting spells instead of whining like that, wizard!”
-Bam bam bam!
Large bricks struck the wall of the skeleton one after another. Crack, light leaked in through the gaps created by the strong impact.
Siela gathered her magic again and tried to repair the wall, but the bricks kept flying and destroyed the wall as soon as she tried to repair it.
Eventually, the gap grew wider and wider until it was large enough for a person to fit through.
“Oh no, I won’t be able to hold out much longer. It’s stronger than I thought.”
“Hey, look! How much of Snow White’s magic casting is left?!”
“Uh…. 5 minutes from now?”
“Oh really! This barrier won’t last more than a few times!”
-bang!
A large block of bricks, seemingly tangled together, hit the wall of the dead with a loud crash.
“It’s falling apart!”
The wall made of skulls eventually collapsed, unable to stop the gold from spreading throughout the body with a crackling noise.
“One more room coming! Brace yourself for vibration!”
-Kwaaang!
A huge brick smashed down hard on the barrier of light that Marel had created. The impact filled the area with sandstorms and vibrations.
“What the…! The barrier was cracked in one shot!”
“What? Siela, hit the wall again!”
“It’s impossible. The wall from before was created by gathering all the dead sleeping underground, so it can’t be rebuilt.”
-Kwaaang!
Without even a moment to quibble, the Demon King’s brick visited the barrier once again.
The bricks of dizzying power instantly broke through the cracked barrier, leaving us exposed to attack.
-Shooo!
“Ahhh…!”
Marel let out a helpless scream as he saw a huge brick flying straight at him.
Even if Han Se-young, Geum Tae-yeon, or Siella, who have strong bodies, are hit several times, they will be able to withstand it, but Marel, who is weak, will be turned into pieces of meat with just a brush.
“Ugh!”
-Crunch!
The warrior, Geum Tae-yeon, pulled out her holy sword, white as tofu, from its scabbard and leapt forward, cutting the brick flying at Marel in half.
The stone fragments cut in this way were then split into left and right pieces and scattered.
I had momentarily forgotten about her pitiful appearance, but Taeyeon Geum is also a woman who has entered the realm of the strong.
It was possible to block something as large and fast-flying as a brick with very little effort.
“, thank you….”
“There’s no time for that! Here it comes again!”
-Shu Su Woong!
There was no time for even a little talk. The huge bricks continued to fall like hail, and their number did not decrease at all.
The only person in the group who could turn this situation around was Snow White, who was casting area magic.
“Going that way too!”
Bricks are flying at a very fast speed, but the white wizard is currently casting an area-of-effect spell!
Geum Tae-yeon tried to block it by flying her body, but she couldn’t do so because a brick flew at Marel again.
“Snow! Just stop casting and guard!”
“Fuck!”
She had no choice but to stop the spell she was casting, and hurriedly cast defensive magic to block the bricks once.
“Ugh!”
Fortunately, the White Wizard never turned into a ‘Red Wizard’, but this meant that any hope of a counterattack was lost.
“Let’s just go in like this! I’ll go protect Marel somehow!”
“Then who will stop Baek Seo-jun?”
“Sielana, Han Se-young will do something, I’ll take the lead, let’s go!”
Eventually, we had no choice but to jump into the countless pieces of debris.
Snow White followed closely behind Siella with a pale face, as if she was extremely anxious about this operation.
“No, wait a minute. I think I’m ready now.”
“Yes, yes?”
-bang!
Han Se-young stepped forward and threw a punch, breaking the flying brick.
A fist swung in a carefree manner, and the brick instantly turned into a pile of gravel in the air.
“I finally figured out the timing, I couldn’t get a feel for it because of the annoying vibration earlier.”
Was the reason you didn’t step forward and just stayed back even though the bricks were flying at you because you wanted to read the timing?
-Shooong!
Another flying brick, but Han Se-young did not give in and ran forward.
-Paang!
This time her long, sexy legs bent and then straightened with a slap in the air.
“That’s ridiculous! Is that possible!?”
“I’m a woman who says she won’t lie.”
The brick that Han Se-young kicked flew back in the direction it came from and collided with another brick.
Two bricks collided with a crash and shattered in the air.
“If you know the timing, even a child can avoid this. Didn’t I tell you that my older sister was a professional baseball player before she came here?”
“No….”
“When we return to Earth later, I will tell you in detail.”
Wasn’t she a gangster? I was quite shocked to learn that her origins were more sound and impressive than I thought.
-Phew!
For Han Se-young, who figured out timing, the flying bricks were just floating balls.
She advanced, knocking aside bricks, breaking them, and sometimes grabbing them with her hands to use as shields.
The Demon King seemed to have noticed her presence, as he blew up huge pieces of material here and there.
It was still the same as before, with one punch from Han Se-young, everything would be shattered.
“Did you think that girl would fight with that kind of woman….”
Siella was astonished at Han Se-young’s overwhelming strength.
“Let’s hurry up and move forward. I’m going to strangle that crazy bitch.”
I felt that the confident Han Se-young had become a little, no, a lot more beautiful.
