by fnovelpiaThe fog that bloomed on the battlefield obscured the view.
Serpin couldn’t come to his senses for a moment. Since she couldn’t see in front of her, the clear sounds kept pounding her. It was an urgency that I couldn’t control.
“Kwaaak! spearman. Spearmen forward!”
“Wrong! It’s already collapsed! Stop them at the next line!”
The sound gets closer and closer. A bloody smell that I couldn’t sense when I saw it from a distance passed by the tip of my nose. It meant that death was smiling at her.
“Large. Sigh!”
I wanted to shake off all of this with one deep breath. Just as Durin had done in the south, Serfin boldly went up against the enemy general and attempted to take up the sword. But there was one fact she had overlooked.
The regent was an archdemon who absorbed all of the devil’s authority when she disappeared. Compared to him, he was a low-ranking low-ranking person who could only use mediocre genjutsu. Her position was what created her position, but in terms of her actual strength, she was no different from the hostages in the parlor.
They were like the bugs she had ignored so much.
“Lady. You must step away first. The escort will take care of this.”
“Ho, escort?”
“Yes. The secretary is now stepping in to sort out the confusion. Trust him.”
The voice of a soldier shouting beyond his shaking vision shattered. It was to the point where I doubted whether I was listening properly. But she could smell it. A path to survival appeared.
“Escort. There was a guard.”
“First, we need to plan for the future. hurry! Hurry and take cover!”
Arrows flying from time to time began to land in the surrounding area. It meant that it was really close now. I still couldn’t come to my senses because my vision was blurry, but my body was still moving.
“Yes. Yes, they were there. You have to live first to live later… .”
“Please step aside! The enemy is approaching!”
The soldier who shouted urgently pushed her. Serpin rolled on the ground awkwardly. The screams grew louder and echoed from all directions.
“… … .”
White hands grabbed the frozen dirt. Blood of unknown origin was staining the area nearby.
death. Serpin thought of a terrible word.
So far, they have been excluding entities that are bound to run rampant on the battlefield.
The war that took place in the east was mainly a territorial war for power. It wasn’t a real war like now where we risk everything and kill each other. Because of that, she became dull.
“What on earth did I want to do?”
Serpin stood up with difficulty. As my vision became somewhat clearer, I saw the soldiers’ miserable faces.
-Get away from me, you bastard! I mean die.
-die!!
Now I resisted the demonic cavalry that had come so close that I could even see its face. Armed with spears and shields, they prevented the cavalry from approaching. Their owner did not allow them to land on the fallen land.
“I was just looking at the ball too much.”
A cruel reality swept across her cheeks with the chilly northern wind. Serpin looked up at the sky. Tears welled up in my empty eyes. A smile appeared at the corner of the twisted mouth, showing contradiction, but thanks to this, Serpin was able to express it with intensity.
“This is war.”
The devil’s nature awakens. I ask once again the beings who live in struggle.
why am i here
“I wanted to be king.”
Looking at the strong regent, I wanted to become like him. The color of the horns didn’t matter. Because he was recognized by everyone in the castle solely because of his strength, and was in fact recognized as a demon king.
“Like Durin, I wanted to write a myth.”
It was disgusting to be in the same room as the hostages. Because it was like looking at yourself. As the daughter of an archduke, she could smell the scent of power only by waving her hands toward mediocre ambitions.
“But I guess I can’t.”
My head drops. Water droplets fall on my kneeling knees. My will has weakened. The moment the soldiers’ lives are cut off, Serpin will also die.
Their efforts will ultimately be in vain. The feelings I felt when I was locked in the punishment room by Durin suddenly came to mind. After all, I was that kind of being. When it’s important, you can’t do anything and just drag along… .
-Get up.
At that moment, a voice rang in my head. Serpin opened his closed eyes. The surroundings were the same. The unfavorable battlefield still pressured her.
but.
-The devil who will become king should not give up so easily.
It sounded clear. It was Durin’s voice. Serpin was startled and jumped up from his seat. I looked everywhere, but he wasn’t there.
The path to survival she briefly saw and the hope that came from a different direction. I wanted to hold on to it despite losing face.
-The Great Devil is the one who must stand up against the angels. Even if you have to be burned by divine power, stand at the forefront and die fighting.
It was a verse written in the law. For a moment, my heart pounded.
Great devil. A name that can only be called by those who are qualified to become the Demon King.
-Remember. You are the devil who must do his duty.
An overwhelming being who can turn the current unfavorable situation around.
“Lady! Are you okay?”
The soul, which had been floating for a moment like a broken string, returned to the body. When Serpin’s vision returned, the battlefield was no longer as chaotic as it had just been. Rather, things were getting organized.
“Less. Where did the enemy go?”
“stepped down. We were unable to break through and everyone retreated.”
“Wasn’t it a demonic cavalry? Is that possible?”
“Look at the sky!”
The soldier’s voice was full of hope. She followed the tip of his finger.
The sky, which should have been white in the distance due to the winter wind, had turned dark.
Sticky Maggi. That is what shadows the battlefield.
“That… .”
“It is a spell. As expected, His Excellency was looking down on us.”
Hwanhee gained momentum.
The Great Devil is coming. The devil, who will defeat all the enemies of the world and eventually face the angels, will descend here.
Beep profit-
Bleep-
What was urgent was the North. The troops who had tried to break the formation and capture Serpin in one go were running away. Seeing the demonic force in the sky, the demonic spirit became frightened and increased its speed.
The central army itself was not scary, but the magic power would deal a huge blow to them. The northern commanders decided that the eastern army was a decoy and began to flee, leaving the wounded and supplies behind.
The shortcomings of the ununited North are becoming more evident. When they attacked, they came forward with one mind and one purpose, but because they had to find a way to survive, they abandoned other warriors of the tribe who were like a burden.
The division was an opportunity. A golden opportunity for the Eastern Army to take the lead on the battlefield.
It was also the moment when Durin extended his hand to the young demon who had lost his momentum.
-I will make you like that.
Quaaang-!
With the voice ringing once more, the spell began. Demonic energy poured down from the black sky. The same feeling as when the fortress that had not sworn allegiance was destroyed came over the northern soldiers.
However, this time, no one’s life was taken. The magic energy stuck in the ground spread out across the earth, creating an intense shock.
At the same time it became a new flame.
All the approaching fear of defeat was burned away. The tadaman ashes became the power of demons. He turned the tip of his spear and poured out all the fear he had on his opponent.
“Durin! Our great warrior! Conqueror of the South!”
Alberto, who had completed his training at the main university, shouted as if screaming. The old demon’s loud cry swept through the entire army.
The Eastern Army had a strong grip on weapons. Their hearts began to beat as they searched for new honor.
Kwaaa-
A quiet word from Durin, who appeared on the battlefield where the aftereffects of the spell remained.
“All troops in assault stance.”
“Charge!!”
“Aaaa!!”
With shouts, the Eastern Army launched an attack all at once. The troops who could not escape the shock of falling from their horses were crushed by steel boots.
There were no survivors. The Eastern Army advanced with the intention of completely destroying the army that attacked them.
“Your Excellency is with us!”
The angry waves let out a thunderous roar and slaughtered the demonic beast. The momentum was so strong. So much so that it cannot be called the former Eastern Army.
“Haha… .”
Serpin let out a helpless laugh. There were no soldiers left by her side. Everyone, from the staff to the guards, was swept away by the atmosphere and moved forward.
If it had been before, I would have been miserable after seeing this scene.
But she had no negative feelings.
“Hey! I can’t stay still!”
As a soldier of Durin, his heart had already gone to the battlefield.
