ah.

…..thank god.

I’m so glad.

“….Hera?”

Athena looks at me with a blank face.

She made an expression as if she was dreaming, then closed her eyes and sighed.

“….That can’t be true. Is this the afterlife?”

Ppachik-

I was furious at her words that didn’t even sound like what she said.

Crack-!

I also struck her other cheek, leaving a red mark of my hand on both cheeks.

Then Athena, who was looking at me with her hand on her cold cheek, said with a sly smile.

“……Can you even feel pain? That’s amazing.”

“Hey!!! Stop it!!”

Only after I grabbed her by the collar and started shaking her around.

Only then did reality begin to dawn on her. Athena’s eyes began to squint.

“……Hera?”

“Please come to your senses!!”

Kwaaang!!!

A huge crash was heard from behind.

As I turned my head towards the direction of the sound, I saw a black sword flying towards me with such force that it seemed as if it would hit the ground.

But just before he was about to hit the ground, he spun around and landed safely on his feet.

The flying sword glanced at Athena, then let out a hearty laugh and took up the sword in his hand again.

“Haha!! My friend. I’m glad you’re safe.”

Athena looked at him with a blank expression.

“…Carlos?”

“If you’ve come to your senses, hurry. It seems like it’ll be hard to stop that monster any longer.”

Is he really the Demon King?

His condition could not be said to be good at the moment.

There were already small injuries piled up here and there on his body.

His sweaty face had a fierce look of exhaustion on it.

“That little rat… is annoying me.”

Where the eerie voice was heard, the Demon King, who looked quite irritated, was slowly approaching us.

With each step she took, the overwhelming sense of fear grew stronger and stronger.

“Just because it’s fast….hmm?”

The Demon King is with us for a moment… no.

To be exact, he looked behind me, where Alina and Sephir were. Then he frowned and said.

“Sepher….Why are you there?”

“Hiyaayayak?!!!!”

Sephir jumped like a frog at the sound of the Demon King’s murderous voice.

“Ma.MaMaMaMa..Your Majesty..Gggg..That’s not it…”

Sephir’s eyes began to shake violently from side to side, unable to focus.

” It’s done. Just kill the traitor. ”

As the Demon King took a step closer, Sephir hid behind me and screamed.

“Heeek!!!! Sasasa..Please save me!!!”

She waved her hand, shaking like an aspen tree, and a large dimensional gate appeared behind us.

“Hera!! Dodo.. Do… Run away-!!”

“Where.”

Just before Sephir finished speaking.

The Demon King spread his huge wings and kicked the ground, flying towards us.

But before she could reach us, the Black Sword blocked our path.

Soon he took up his sword.

He closed his eyes for a moment and concentrated.

He quickly swung his sword into the air.

“It’s no use-.. Hmm?”

Of course, since I cut through the air, nothing happened.

The Demon King paused for a moment and looked at him with a dumbfounded expression.

“Are you crazy? You’re acting like a clown.”

As the Demon King snickered, Geomseong immediately put his sword back in its sheath and returned the laugh with a hearty laugh.

“Even the Demon King couldn’t figure it out. I guess my training wasn’t in vain.”

“…What is that-”

Pasa sak-!

Numerous sword strikes that must have cut through the air appeared in an instant and cut down the Demon King.

The Demon King covered his face with both arms and accepted all of his swords.

“You bastard.. Can you change the space? “.

“Take Athena and run away. I’ll follow you right away.”

Saying so, Geomseong immediately ran towards the Demon King.

“Yes?! But….!”

“Hurry up! I can’t hold out much longer!”

Then, the Sword Saint starts swinging his sword at the Demon King again.

While I was looking confused for a moment.

“Hera. Let’s go.”

Before I knew it, the treatment was complete. Athena lifted me up, looking relatively fine.

“What?! But the blacksmith..!”

“Don’t worry. I’ve thought of everything.”

Athena shifted her gaze to look at Marie.

“Kid. When I give you the signal, shoot light magic at the Demon King.”

Marie’s face crumpled as if she didn’t want to, but she reluctantly decided to follow.

“…..Okay.”

“Go out. Sephir, you go out first.”

“Ahhh I get it!! I have to come quickly…?”

Sephir continued to stutter, as if his body had not yet calmed down.

Sephir threw himself into the dimensional portal.

Athena also kicked the ground and ran to the dimensional gate.

“Do you think I’ll let you run away!!”

After avoiding the swordsman’s attack, she reaches out to us.

Then black thorns with a dark color began to pour down on us.

“Now.”

Athena gave the signal.

“Okay.”

As Marie chanted the spell, a huge pillar of light flew towards the Demon King.

“Lukete.”

Athena opened one palm and muttered. Particles of light gathered in her hand and formed the shape of a sword.

And she did it right away, without hesitation.

He threw the sword down at Geomseong.

“Carlos! Grab the sword!”

Kwaaang-!!

As Marie and the Demon King’s magic collided, a huge shockwave was emitted into the surrounding area.

Athena’s sword runs quickly through them.

“Hmm!”

As Geomseong grabbed the sword, his body glowed for a moment and then disappeared.

“Go out.”

Athena confirmed that the sword had disappeared and went through the dimensional gate.

As soon as Sephir confirmed that everyone had arrived safely, he closed the door without a moment’s delay.

In that dimensional gate that is slowly closing.

The Demon King’s two glaring red eyes were just looking at me.

widely-

.

.

.

“Why on earth did you come there!!!”

Athena opened her eyes wide and shouted at me loudly.

“Do you know how dangerous the demon world is!!! What the hell are you thinking, Hera!!”

As I stood there dumbfounded, Athena turned her gaze to Mari and grumbled.

“Marie. What did you do without even stopping her? If by any chance Hera got hurt, don’t you know it’s all your fault?”

“….”

Mari looks at Athena with a dumbfounded expression.

“If you are a dragon, make wise decisions like a dragon.”

It won’t work.

I couldn’t stand it any longer.

“If it were me-”

“Please shut up..!!”

As I straddled her legs and pushed hard, Athena, who didn’t offer much resistance, fell to the floor.

Without hesitation, I climbed on top of Athena, making sure she couldn’t move.

“개새끼..”

“….Hera.”

Athena looks up at me with a sunken expression.

“Bad year…! Selfish year..!”

I poured out all the pent-up emotions I had been holding in to her.

At my loud shout, Athena’s two eyes began to shake violently.

“Are you mad at me..? Are you crazy..?! Why did you crawl in there to die…!!”

“..Hera..”

“If you threw me away like that, at least live well!! Who would want to commit suicide on their own?!!”

Athena, who was embarrassed, soon closed her eyes tightly and looked up at me with a sad expression and said.

“I didn’t do it for you. I did it for you-”

“Stop talking nonsense!!”

My eyes turned red from the emotion I felt and my speech began to tremble slightly.

“You did it for me…? Don’t talk nonsense.. If you die like that. Do you think I’ll like it..?”

“…..”

“If you really cared about me…you should have apologized until the end instead of running away.”

Her eyes shook violently at my words.

“Why can’t you only think of yourself from beginning to end..?”

“…..Apologize..?”

Ugh-

Athena, who seemed to have a lot to say, looked up at me with a tearful expression and began to scream.

“I wanted to apologize too! I wanted to beg and beg for forgiveness until you accepted it. But you’re dying day by day, so what the hell do you want me to do!”

“…..”

“After thinking about it thousands of times and staying up all night. In the end, I had no choice but to let you go. Because you resented me…to the point of death.”

….okay.

It wasn’t wrong.

As Athena said, I never had the courage to accept her apology.

Perhaps if Athena hadn’t sent me, our relationship would have ended eventually.

but.

But still.

It was truly unforgivable that he was trying to commit suicide like this.

Athena looked at my unresponsive face for a moment and then continued speaking.

“….I want to be with you again. I want to love you again. Again-”

“Athena.”

When I interrupted her, she looked at me with a puzzled expression.

“We can never go back.”

“…..I know.”

Her eyes fluttered for a moment at my words. Then they darkened.

okay.

Our relationship can never go back to how it was before.

Because it has already been shattered to pieces beyond repair.

But it won’t end like this.

Bad relationship or whatever. I won’t run away anymore.

I have made up my mind.

He grabbed her by the collar tightly.

“Athena. I hate you so much for forcing me to separate from the people I love.”

“…..”

“I hate you enough to kill you for bringing me to this rock bottom.”

“…..I..”

One word from me. Another word. Her eyes closed tightly.

“You who hurt me so much and then tried to run away on your own. I hate you so much.”

“….Yeah.”

Athena looked at me sadly, with a face that seemed to have given up and lost hope.

I looked at her like that for a while.

“I hate you. I resent you. Do you know how much I suffered because of you?”

“I’m sorry. I won’t catch your eye from now on-”

“I will take revenge.”

“….what?”

Athena’s eyes widened as if she had heard something unexpected.

“I’ll take revenge. Everything you did to me…! I’ll give it all back.”

“…..That’s moose-”

“The wounds I received. The self-loathing. I will return it all to you.”

okay.

Our relationship cannot be reversed.

But at the same time, I couldn’t run away.

then.

All I had to do was continue this bad relationship.

“So please, Athena.”

“This time, be my slave.”
