episode_0067

A demon with curly blonde hair with a unique vibe. Despite his cool appearance, he is a guy who radiates a strangely dangerous energy all over his body.

Even though most of the Demon Lord’s army is gone, it is quite dangerous to be emitting that level of power.

There was quite a bit of bad blood with Ferol.

His involvement during the fight against the Demon King and his minions was considerable.

They saved the lives of those who were almost killed and ran away, and they also supported the attack, putting us in danger. Perhaps the most dangerous person next to the Demon Lord is standing in front of us for a reason that may have the same purpose as us.

“This is… Why is it there?”

“I also came because I had some business to do.”

He slowly approached the still standing monster.

“I was going to take it slow, but now that other people are here, I don’t think I can take my time anymore.”

I don’t know what he was thinking, but he was moving towards the huge sword stuck in the monster’s back.

Should I pull that out?

I immediately drew my sword and blocked Perol.

“Stop it. This is my problem to solve.”

“Isn’t the person who discovered it first the owner?”

“I discovered it first?”

When Leah stepped forward, Ferol smiled awkwardly and looked away.

“Well, then a peaceful method won’t work.”

Are you planning on fighting over this?

Now, at Elena’s request, I have come to help the Rodian Kingdom, but on the other hand, I have decided to cooperate with Shaiti to eliminate the power of the Demon King.

Maybe there’s no need to fight.

“Wait a minute.”

“Yes?”

“Don’t you have the same goal as Shayty?”

“Shaty… . It was like that.”

Ferol shrugged his shoulders and laughed.

“Where else did you cause accidents?”

“We met. I received a request from that guy. I want you to take this power and destroy it.”

Ferol stroked his chin and nodded.

“Hmm, that guy… .”

“So I’m taking this.”

“You even betray me. really… It’s not worth raising.”

Betrayal?

“What? you… Any other thoughts?”

“There is absolutely no reason to hand this over to you?”

“Hero. You have to kill this guy quickly.”

Elena, who had been quietly listening to the conversation, came forward and encouraged me.

However, seeing Ferol who didn’t seem to have any intention of fighting yet, I didn’t feel like fighting.

“But there are a warrior, a saint, a wizard, and two elves… This is a fight at which I am at a great disadvantage.”

Ferol was the first to wave his hand and retreat from the monster.

Only then did I stand in front of the monster.

“What is your purpose?”

“They are probably thinking of reviving the Demon King.”

When Elena said it as if it were obvious, Ferol smiled and nodded.

“Well, it’s not really a secret. Seeing that you expect something like that for granted. you’re right. My purpose is to enable the Demon King to return.”

“Trying to bring back the demon lord that was eliminated… .”

Elena took the lead and tried to catch Ferol.

Unlike the old days when he only healed from behind, he was already emitting light from his body and showing his readiness to fight.

“Hero!”

“Haha, oh my. I have to go quickly.”

Ferol disappeared while looking at the monster behind me.

As soon as he disappeared, the floor began to shake.

The monster that had been still all along began to move.

“Jihoo!”

Arna came straight to my side.

The guy who was crouching with only his back showing the sword stuck in his head moved and showed his appearance, and it looked quite bizarre.

“Wow, I don’t think he’s an ordinary guy.”

It looked like a huge dog, with a mouth on its neck and four eyes. They were growling at me in a strange way, as if two animals were overlapped.

As soon as I turned around, four arrows flew towards those four eyes in an instant.

The monster moved quickly, dodged the arrows, and ran out of the fortress. The remaining walls of the fortress were destroyed and thrown out, and stone fragments instantly covered the interior.

Arna immediately created a protective wall.

For a moment, dust rose and disappeared.

“Are you okay? It’s that big, but it’s really fast.”

“Let’s go.”

I immediately took the lead and followed the monster.

As if he had no intention of running away, he moved to a larger area and waited for us.

“He’s pretty fast. Larissa, I need a way to tie my feet.”

“I’ll try freezing it!”

Larissa immediately created magic in both hands, and felt a cold energy coming from it. It’s so cold that I feel like I’m freezing next to me.

“Leah, Arna. Block the direction in which he moves so he can’t avoid it.”

“I understand.”

Then, I immediately raised my sword and stepped in front of the monster.

It’s up to me to tie my feet from the front.

He rushed right in and swung his sword.

– Boom!

It swung my sword with its huge front paw and parried it, but I was bounced back and fell down.

“Ugh… .”

The power is very strong.

Arna’s arrows and Larissa’s magic blocked the path of the guy who was running at me as I fell down one after another.

Larissa froze the floor and tried to tie the monster’s legs, but the monster retreated quite quickly.

― Swish, whiz!

As the monster retreated, a lot of arrows started raining down on him.

Arna was shooting a lot of arrows in succession. After confirming that he was still shooting arrows, he immediately ran towards the monster again.

While I was running, Leah quickly approached the monster and cut its leg as it retreated.

“Now!”

For a moment, there was no place to run and he jumped straight towards the monster whose movements had become sluggish. As he flew up with his sword, this time he opened his mouth.

When it opens its two mouths at once, it looks really scary. I lunged at what was supposed to be the mouth of one of them and plunged the knife into its mouth.

“It is done.”

And at that moment, the monster’s legs were frozen by Larissa’s magic.

Meanwhile, I landed again and raised my sword high and glared at the monster. As I held the sword tightly, light began to emerge from the holy sword.

Just cut it down like this now.

– Hook!

He struck the monster’s neck without hesitation.

As blood poured out and the monster’s head fell off, the sword on its back began to emit an eerie light.

That evil power… . That unforgettable power. This is the power that the Demon King exuded.

“Queeek!”

The monster screamed and began to struggle.

The head fell off, and the monster’s body, which had completely lost its intelligence, broke even the ice that had frozen its legs and ran anywhere.

At the same time, bones and miscellaneous objects were randomly sticking out from the cracks in the body that had been cut by the sword.

“That… .”

Flags, armor, weapons, and bones of the Rodian Kingdom are pouring out indiscriminately. It looks like they ate up all the guys here.

“Elena! Then try to grab that thing with that strength!”

“Yes!”

Without hesitating for a moment at my instructions, Elena immediately emitted light and created tentacle-like things to grab the monster’s body.

How convenient would it have been if it had been done this way in the past?

“Qu… It seems difficult to hold out for long.”

“I understand.”

I ran straight to the monster.

The first thing that bothers me is that sword still stuck in my back.

Ferol tried to touch that too.

I think I need to pull that one out first.

He immediately jumped up and climbed onto the back of the struggling monster. As soon as I touched the sword, an incredible force was transmitted to my arm.

“Ugh… .”

It hurts so much.

This is the power of the devil.

As I gripped the handle of the sword, I felt tremendous pain through my hand. Along with that, the Holy Sword also began to glow.

Anyway, I don’t think I made a mistake.

“Ugh!”

I pulled out my sword with all my might.

As the sword came out of the monster’s back, the struggling monster stopped moving, and at the same time, Elena’s strength holding on to it also disappeared.

“Jihoo!”

Arna ran straight to me.

I feel dizzy.

I can feel the power of the Demon King flowing into my hands. And at the same time, the holy sword is absorbing its power again.

My role is to be the medium through which the devil’s power enters the holy sword.

Arna suddenly came in front of me and hugged me as I sat down. Arna’s touch, which seemed to be using a hasty recovery spell, made me feel much more at ease.

Behind Arna, who was hugging me, I saw a blurry figure of Elena slowly approaching me.

“Elena… .”

“As expected, with the arrival of the hero, things are easily resolved.”

now… What happens to me?

As soon as I start worrying about that, I feel like I’m slowly coming back to my senses. My vision became clearer, and the pain in my arm, which had been feeling pain, gradually disappeared.

I felt better, but I had no energy at all.

“Thank you for your hard work.”

Elena stood quietly next to me.

There seems to be no other thoughts.

“Ha… Yes.”

“We will make sure that no other abnormalities occur for the time being. We will take steps to ensure that you can receive treatment in the meantime.”

I nodded and looked elsewhere.

Larissa was sitting down exhausted, and Leah was looking at the remains that the monster had thrown up.

“Wow, are these the humans who ate all of them?”

Leah rummaged through the pile of bones and found a shiny watch.

“Huh?”

Elena took long strides towards Leah.

“Thank you for your help, but please do not tamper with such items.”

“I think this is someone I know?”

Leah looked up at Elena who came closer, shaking the round pocket watch hanging on a gold chain.

“We will retrieve it and check it.”

“He said he doesn’t have any family, so shouldn’t I have it?”

“I… … Ha, are you sure?”

“Yes. Are you sure. I bought it for you as a gift.”

Leah grinned.

“Then, yes. Please do so.”

Leah put the watch in her pocket and looked at the other wreckage. The person called my friend who came here… Did he just die here?

Anyway, it seems the fight is over.

Elena then looked after Larisa, and Arna came back to me.

“Jihoo, Jihoo. Are you really okay? Now that… Jihoo has the power of the devil, right?”

“I think so.”

“It doesn’t hurt? It was here, right?”

Arna grabbed my arm holding the sword that was still stuck on the monster.

When I touched Arna’s hand, I felt a slight numbness.

“Yes. It hurts, but… .”

“Oh, does it hurt? I shouldn’t be sick… !”

The way he looks worried is kind of cute.

“You will feel better soon.”

Suddenly I heard a male voice. Obviously, there were only women besides me… .

“You, you… .”

Arna left me and got up.

Ferol, who had disappeared, reappeared.

“The warrior’s body absorbed the power of the devil… Now the Holy Sword is taking that power again.”

“Um, is it really going to be okay if I just stay like this?”

Arna asked urgently, and Ferol nodded.

“Yes. Haha, after all, the only people who can handle a holy sword like this are warriors. But be careful. Because there are people other than me who are aiming for that. That’s very close too.”

Ferol smiled as he looked at me still sitting down.

“Demon!”

Only then did Elena run to where I was.

“Oh, my. I guess I have to go now.”

Ferol quickly disappeared again.

“Sorry. Hero. In the blink of an eye… . Did anything happen?”

“Uh, it’s okay.”

I see, Evelia won’t just ignore the Demon King’s power I gained… .

“Elena. Evelia knows we’re here, right?”

Elena didn’t answer for a moment.

At that time, a loud noise was heard from afar.

Larissa hurriedly ran to us.

“Hey, it’s Jihoo… I think Evelia is coming?”

At that moment, all eyes, including mine, were focused on Elena.

Arna said with a frown.

“Don’t say you didn’t know anything. Because I heard you guys talking among yourselves.”

“Well, I… … .”
