Kaltara lifted Agnes into her arms.

Then Agnes spoke in a sharp tone.

“What are you doing?”

“Well, isn’t it something to lift and move? It’s difficult to protect in a mansion that is so tightly closed on all sides.”

“Put this away. I’ll wait until Deltan comes.”

“He’s not coming.”

“I will come.”

Kaltara squeezed Agnes’ buttocks.

“Ugh… !”

Agnes’ body stiffened.

Kaltara said with a chuckle.

“It’s resilient. It’s delicious to touch.”

“Don’t touch it carelessly. I’m Delta.”

“Well, then I become the boss and the hole sister-in-law?”

“What… .”

“Try fluttering one more time. Because then it won’t end like this.”

Agnes’ mouth was tightly shut.

She glared at Kaltara with an uncharacteristically venomous look on her face.

Kaltara was pleased with all the responses.

Anyway, I couldn’t help but be happy when I thought that what Agnes was showing now was her true feelings that she had always hidden.

“You whine about how you have no regrets about life, but you try to take care of everything you need. There is no child like this.”

Kaltara left the mansion.

Before I knew it, there were Levadein knights there, armed.

“Lord Kaltara. Miss… .”

“I’m taking you with me! The boss ordered me!”

As soon as people gathered nearby, Kaltara started acting like an idiot.

And then he went through them in a truly barbaric manner.

However, the fact that she was able to position herself so that only Agnes in her arms would be comfortable showed what a delicate knight she was.

The street that came out like that.

Agnes opened her mouth as soon as the people around her disappeared.

“Where are you going?”

“I will go to Count Hebron’s residence. We need more hunting dogs.”

“I miss Delta.”

“I hope the devil is caught quickly. I look forward to seeing the princess tremble and cry out of shame.”

“I’m going to sleep with Deltan. If I got on my knees and prayed, he would give me money.”

“Cheer up.”

Kaltara let out an exclamation in her mind.

‘That’s incredible.’

It was a story about resistance to temptation, not true intentions.

Agnes Levadeine’s resistance to temptation was miserable.

At least among the humans Kaltara knew, there was no one so vulnerable to temptation.

To put it in one word, it was like that.

‘Not only my body but also my mind is a piece of glass.’

Perhaps, if this place were not an institution, and if there had not been a Deltan ‘Saint’s Hall’, Agnes would have been possessed by the devil and died before anyone else.

While those thoughts continued.

[Kaltara.]

A voice was heard in a crackling voice.

It was above my head.

Kaltara and Agnes’ heads were raised at the same time.

“It’s Delta.”

Agnes smiled brightly and recited.

However, what is there is not a Deltan, but an autodrone.

It was his magic tool.

[…] Why is he like that again?]

“I’m pickled by temptation! It’s as resistant as an insect!”

A voice that sounded like a sigh came from the auto drone.

[…] Okay, that’s enough, the devil came to earth. Did you catch it?]

“Cancer! I threw the pen and caught it!”

[Okay, just keep holding on. Release all other hunting dogs as well.]

“What will the boss do?”

[We will stop St. Hall. It’s going to be infested with demons, so move as fast as you can. Troops will also be sent from the imperial family.]

“What should the princess do?”

[Throw it in my mansion. Because it will be safe there.]

“I understand! Thank you for your hard work!”

The autodrone rose into the sky without answering.

Agnes said as she looked at the departing drone with a look full of regret.

“Deltain is gone.”

“I never came. Now stop and go.”

Agnes’ shoulders trembled slightly.

Now it seems that emotions have taken over even the body.

From Kaltara’s point of view, it seemed as if he had undergone infantile regression.

*

Count of Hebron.

Entering the Deltan’s bedroom, Kaltara placed Agnes on the bed with the most careful movements she could muster.

“When it comes to protecting against demons, this place will be safer than the emperor’s quarters. Please stay calm.”

Agnes did not listen to Kaltara.

From the moment he heard that this is where Deltans sleep, he started laughing heartily, then crawled under the blanket and sniffed the bed.

Kaltara licked his lips, scratched the back of his head, and left the room.

The door was locked with a clanging sound.

‘hmm… The boss will take care of the rest.’

There was no fear that Agnes, left alone, might commit suicide.

As Kaltara was leaving, the sound of moaning coming from the bedroom clearly caught her sensitive ears.

*

The space turned upside down.

Deltan, who had closed his eyes deep in the underground water, opened his eyes again in the sky above Tardan, the archipelago.

What comes out of your mouth is a sigh.

It was Agnes’s breathing that came out due to her condition, which I had seen through the drone just before.

‘The condition is more serious than I thought.’

If things continued like this, I would have to think about the aftereffects of the temptation.

I was not simply talking about the shame that arises when reason returns.

Once the emotional ups and downs were severe, there were cases where the ability to think was affected for a while.

Deltan clicked his tongue and released his mana.

‘I was the problem in the first place. No, St Hall was the problem.’

Now I was sure.

Why has the demon called Gaias not been caught until now, and why does a demon rise up to the ground through the Saint Hall?

‘There was a clue from the beginning. In omens and quests.’

Those tempted by Gaias hear Gaias’ name in their dreams.

And I feel pain in my heart.

That wasn’t all.

Instead of playing tag, Deltan looked at the list of DLC ingredients.

What is written there is ‘2. The sentence was ‘Heart of Gaias (incomplete)’.

‘heart. The heart itself is the power of Gaias.’

Deltan reflected on the organ he knew called ‘heart’.

‘Center, control, manage. And the beginning and the end.’

The heart pumps blood throughout the body.

And the blood mixed with waste products is purified again.

If you substitute this for the devil, it is like that.

‘Gaias is a monarch-type demon. A form of increasing one’s power by using other demons as subordinates.’

Deltan looked down at the islands.

There was a city that shined brightly even at such a dark night.

‘My infection probably affected St. Hall’s as well. Saint Hall itself has become the blood vessel of Gaias.’

The origins of players whose origins we do not know have now become clear.

‘It popped out of St. Hall.’

Gaias must have encroached on the Saint Hall and changed the nature of the magic.

Only after confirming that Saint Hall’s technique had changed did Deltan burst into laughter.

‘The Anti-Masik has collapsed.’

The formula was cleverly twisted to become a method of hiding demonic energy.

Deltan’s golden eyes glowed darkly.

‘very… .’

I got hit in the back of the head.

Deltan raised his hand, feeling his pride hurt.

There are four players remaining.

Considering that Kaltara got through one and the drone got through one, the numbers were perfect.

Maybe if you get rid of all those demons, Gaias will come out.

The Deltans were happy to praise Gaias’ cunning.

“You put a lot of thought into the topic.”

He chanted and released his mana.

Mana clearly looked angry.

A deep blue fog stretched endlessly and filled the sky above the island.

The heads of the knights fighting below the earth turned towards the sky.

The sky was brightening.

Coogugung.

A roar sounded from the sky.

Deltan waved his hand and spread mana.

‘If St. Hall is the problem.’

Just turn it off and that’s it.

The city lights disappeared.

Four demons emerged from the center of the system, the central part of Saint Hall’s design.

At the same time, screams were heard from outside the castle walls.

*

Kaltara laughed out loud at the demon that suddenly appeared.

“What a welcome face!”

What was before her was a demon of struggle.

Six muscular arms and a long waist.

And the 16 pairs of smooth legs extending from the long tail-like pelvis were quite a welcome sight to Kaltara.

Anyway, that’s because it’s a demon that wields physical power, which is rare among demons.

“A high-ranking devil!”

The devil looked down at Kaltara with a face reminiscent of a noblewoman.

[Ugh… .]

The surrounding knights hesitated and bit their feet.

It was because of the extremely bizarre shape and the magical energy emanating from the demon.

Meanwhile, Kaltara turned to the devil with an excited face.

No other words were exchanged.

Kaltara fired at the demon with both fists clenched.

thud!

Kaltara flew up and slammed her fist into the devil’s cheek.

Then the devil embraced Kaltara with his six arms.

Immediately afterwards, thorns sprouted from the devil’s arms.

The sound of flesh being crushed was heard.

“Gyeong!”

One of the knights let out a loud scream.

The scenery in front of me was so terrible.

Kaltara suffered.

Five were pierced on the head, two on the neck, eight each on the chest, arms, and waist, and finally, the legs were pierced at the knees and pelvic bones.

At that, a deep fear appeared on the knight’s face.

“It’s okay.”

The knight who was his senior said.

“They did it on purpose.”

The knight was looking at Kaltara as if he were looking at a monster.

He knew.

How does Kaltara fight?

Grumbling.

Kaltara, whose whole body was pierced by skewers, rolled her eyes.

Even though she should have already died, she just smiled brightly as if nothing was wrong.

“It hurts!”

My brain was pierced.

The respiratory tract was pierced, the heart was pierced, and the digestive system was pierced.

Nevertheless, Kaltara did not die.

The knight who had shouted in surprise at first made a puzzled face.

This is because it was a cause and effect that his common sense could not understand.

Meanwhile, the senior driver spoke.

“Leave this to me. St. Hall is out. We have to provide support towards the castle gate.”

“But… .”

“Do you know why that woman is called a masochist?”

The knight’s mouth fell shut.

It was because I thought it wasn’t the right word for this situation.

The senior knight continued speaking in a tone full of fear.

“Because you become stronger through pain. And because you never die unless your whole body is torn apart.”

As soon as she said those words, Kaltara’s muscles tightened.

The thorn piercing her body broke with a ‘snap’ sound.

As the knight said, Kaltara was feeling stronger than before.

He was smiling happily at that.

“Hmm, okay.”

This is enough.

Caltara decided that and released the mana.

Red flames surged from her entire body.

The demon felt this and tried to get away from Kaltara, but the distance was too close.

Kaltara reached out and grabbed the devil by the hair.

And then he clenched his other fist.

“Die!”

bang!

A fist landed in the devil’s face.

Her face, which had once been like that of a noblewoman, was sunken and hollow.

Kaltara didn’t stop.

I extend my closed fist again.

And then it reaps and spreads out again.

As the series of attacks followed with a roar, the devil was unable to resist in any way and was busy receiving them.

The son-in-law was quietly silent.

Everyone except the senior knight who knew about her was left speechless by the fight, which involved just swinging fists with one’s bare body without any formality.

“That… .”

“Load-level news magazine. And the leader of the hunting dogs.”

Masochist Kaltara.

One of only three Lord-level knights in this empire and the leader of the ‘Hounds of Hebron’.

There was one reason why she was able to receive such recognition despite being a barbarian.

Because it is that strong.

A mercenary who was classified as S-class even in-game.

A weapon that the Deltans have carefully managed and developed from the very beginning.

The strongest among them.

Do I need to say more than this?

She was truly a masterpiece of Hebron, the Delta.

bang!

The demon fell down with a sound.
