Chapter 467
Ellen Artorius was also watching the situation.
People might recognize him, so he faces the situation with clenched fists while wearing a robe that hides his face.
However, Ellen did not know that there was a space movement shielding field spread around her.
Ellen has only one thought.
Will Reinhardt really appear?
If it appeared, I had no intention of hiding it.
I don’t have the right to ask you to take me too. Nor should it be.
Ellen couldn’t abandon people because she knew she was carrying too much.
Knowing that disappearing himself was already a great sin in itself, it was no longer a choice beyond the guilt of Reinhardt.
I just wanted to be able to see it from afar.
Because that would be nice.
Because that’s enough.
Hoping that people won’t get hurt in the process.
So in the crowd, the maddened crowd was frightened, but they were just watching the scaffold.
Charlotte hung her head, waiting for her death to come.
Charlotte knows nothing.
I don’t know what will happen from now on.
If you hang yourself over there.
Would Reinhardt do the same?
Since he has become the hope of mankind, he cannot choose such an option, but he can be delusional.
Because you can think like that.
Ellen was watching Charlotte from afar. If Reinhardt comes, she will save Charlotte and she will be forgiven.
Amid deafening roars, the executioners slowly prepare for execution.
In fact, setting fire is more of a show.
All three are not worthy of dying in the fire of burning wood.
Such actions as stabbing with a spear and cutting off the head with an ax would be applied.
But if Reinhardt appeared, that wouldn’t happen.
Those three will be rescued.
As the executioners’ torches touched the three pyre, flames began to rise with frightening speed.
-Waaaaaaaa!
– Kill! Kill!
– Kill the devil!
– Kill the demons!
In the thought of tearing her eardrums, Ellen could see.
The figure of someone making their way through the crowd.
As they walked under the scaffold, lightly nudging the crowd guarding it.
-bang!
The way he kicks away a burning pyre with one kick, as if exploding it.
like that.
-bang! bang!
Kicks the other three pyre piles and throws them to pieces.
A sudden intrusion.
When the being took off his robe, a young man in the form of a demon with horns appeared.
It was the first time he had seen it, but Ellen could tell that it was Reinhardt.
“These three are the ones I must return… … .”
The Demon King snaps his fingers.
“I will take you.”
-Kurrureurreung!
In an instant, a fierce firestorm soared around the three poles.
The bewildered executioners and surrounding guards were thrown back by the sudden fire.
“line… … . Hart… … .”
-Eh, Demon King!
-It’s the Demon King!
-The Demon King has appeared!
Naturally, the cheers of the people had no choice but to turn into mayhem with the appearance of an unidentified demon.
Those who had hated the devil and the devil until now start running away in fear when the devil really appears.
and.
-Whee-ae-ae-aek!
Accompanied by a piercing sound that rips through the air, dozens of flame bullets begin to ram towards the flame barrier in the air.
“what… … hey?”
Judging from the direction of the attack, it looked like it was aimed at the demon lord, not the demon lord’s minions.
-Ku-kwa-kwa-kwang!
The pouring fireballs began to sweep away the executioners and huge crowds both inside and beyond the wall.
Ellen stared blankly at the scene with her mouth open.
The Demon King appeared.
And, as if someone had waited for that moment, they started attacking the demon king.
As if it didn’t matter what the crowd gathered in this place was.

Crowds of people try to escape the sudden destruction.
People and people were getting tangled up and falling over each other.
People trying to escape are crushed to death as they run over each other in an instant.
And, Ellen saw.
– Kwachang!
-bang!
Numerous people in unknown black robes who broke through the windows of the buildings around the plaza and, rather than running away, rushed to the scene.
“this… … . what the heck is this… … ?”
-Kurrureurreung!
Ellen watched in a daze as countless destructive magics crossed the flame barrier where the demon lord was, as well as civilians were ruthlessly swept away in the aftermath.
-Kureung!
In an instant, the flame barrier disappeared and Reinhardt appeared from within.
Before he knew it, Reinhardt had rescued all three from the scaffold.
In the midst of mayhem, Ellen sees Reinhardt looking around at crowds fleeing, people swept away by magic, and mysterious assailants.
-order… … . were you guys
-okay.
-We couldn’t be friends forever.
Ellen doesn’t know what the story is about.
but.
Reinhardt hands the unconscious Charlotte over to Sarkegar.
-Patriarch and Sarkegar get out first. Because that’s their target. They’ll probably try to kill me.
– Archdemon, but… … .
-Your Highness, that can’t be… … .
– Go, this is an order.
The devil-like figure and the silver-haired girl, who had just been released from their captivity, seemed overwhelmed by the weight of the horse on the demon king’s horse. He nodded his head with a firm expression and began to break away from the attack.
As if you knew that fighting was inevitable.
Lightning rained down from the sky, and flame bullets fell.
Not just magic.
Those who rush with swords and spears rush at the demon king while being enveloped in blue magic.
I don’t know who they are, but they weren’t people with extraordinary skills.
“Stop.”
However, Ellen clearly saw that one of those who rushed at Reinhardt’s words did not stop, but flinched in movement.
-Tsukong!
Alsbringer slashed the head of the one who rushed at him. It was a fierce blow that mercilessly shattered even the protective power of his magical power enhancement and the barrier spread over his body.
A war god’s relic that strengthens the user the stronger the opponent and the harder it is to overcome.
At this moment, the demon king was in a situation where he could maximize Alsbringer’s abilities.
It is not a master class.
However, the enormous amount of attack magic that poured in was unable to break through the magic barrier that overflowed like flames around the body of the demon king for about two meters in all directions.
It was a tremendous horsepower output that was overwhelming just by looking at it.
and inexorable power.
-Suddenly! Kwak!
With his right hand, he slashed the spearhead of the person who was charging at him and tore his body into pieces from the waist down. With his left fist, he hit the opponent’s sword that had just been thrusting in with his left fist, and the shockwave shattered the man’s body. it happened
The master class does not use force so violently.
It simply emits an enormous amount of output as it is.
The unrefined destructive power it radiated prevented the demon lord from allowing even a single attack.
The assailants, who know that they cannot penetrate the demon king with only unlimited rushes, break through the fleeing crowd and watch the demon king.
The demon king sees countless people who have died.
The people who were seriously overcrowded had already died by the thousands due to the magic of the Black Order.
He died not at the hands of the demon king, but at the hands of those who tried to kill the demon king.
“As long as you can kill me, it doesn’t matter what happens.”
The Black Order didn’t say anything at the demon king’s low words.
“Yes, there are many things in the world that cannot be helped.”
“Like I can’t help it.”
“You guys can’t help it either.”
“I understand.”
“I fully understand.”
The demon king walks slowly.
“So, let’s kill each other and kill each other.”
Anger swells in the face of the demon king, who opened his eyes wide.
-Kureung!
The demon king runs.
And the members of the Black Order stood in front of the demon king.
* * *
Epinhauser saved me against the will of the Black Order.
So, as Antirianus had warned, I knew at least that Order was not on my side anymore.
However, I never thought that in this situation, they would try to kill me at the cost of a huge number of civilian casualties.
Black Order.
I don’t know, but a group willing to risk evil for the sake of justice.
It’s not like poetry, but in the end, it seemed like they were similar to me in that I wanted to do something significantly different from what I do.
The important thing is not to discuss each other’s good and evil.
we can’t help each other
I have to save my people.
The Black Order is trying to get rid of me, the seed of a great conflict.
Because the inevitability of each other is colliding, in the end, someone has to die.
i can’t die
So, you must kill it.
– Jjaeong!
As Alsbringer and the other sword collided, the opponent’s sword staggered greatly.
– Cheekyung!
“!”
As I stumbled, I reached out and tried to grab my neck, but a chain suddenly appeared out of the air and wrapped around my left arm.
Perhaps the magic used by someone else, the chain of magical power grabbed my left arm and wouldn’t let go.
The guy who was greatly staggered by my attack stabs me in the back of my neck.
-Cards!
The sword that hit the magic shield couldn’t pierce my neck.
“Suck!”
– Kwakang!
When I pulled my left arm hard, the magic chain broke into pieces because I couldn’t overcome my physical strength.
Most of them specialized in close combat knew how to enhance magical power, and even knew how to use magic.
A melee expert, a wizard, and even a magic swordsman.
Of course, it would have to be, but the Black Order was also a group of crazy monsters.
Since I appeared here, it was clear that he was going to kill me.
There were not only those who simply wanted to engage in close combat, but also those who sniped from a distance.
The plaza was still full of people.
There were many people who tried to run away, but they couldn’t even run away because there were too many people.
The number of people killed by themselves was overwhelmingly greater than those killed by the Black Order’s magic.
Among them, not only magic power enhancement is possible, but there are also master classes.
I already knew from Mr. Epinhauser’s case that the Black Order wasn’t just a group of wizards.
There are guys who are watching me from afar as if they are aiming for the most important timing.
It was probably to stab or slash me to death when I showed a clear gap after sending out small pikes to induce a war of attrition.
Attacking with a weapon imbued with an aura would be the surest attack.
Since they knew that my magic barrier couldn’t be pierced with destructive magic, they seemed to be trying another way.
-Quad deuk!
Vines suddenly sprout from the earth and begin to coil around my limbs at breakneck speed.
And, numerous insects crawl out of the vine and cover my body.
Black Order.
Guys with lots of sobriety.
It was a magic that made you uncomfortable just by looking at it.
“Burn up.”
I don’t know what these bugs are, but I have no intention of letting them burrow into my body.
-Kureung!
Hwayo’s flame lit up and poured out fierce flames.
The tree trunks and insects that wrapped around my body turned to black ash and disappeared in an instant.
You don’t have to kill them all.
All I have to do is escape the plaza. I don’t know what Antirianus is doing, but I just have to leave after confirming that Lucinil, Sarkegar, and Charlotte escape safely.
Not to mention they’re watching me from all sides, and Order isn’t working hard right now.
I could clearly see my intention to gauge how much power I had.
Just watching to kill when there’s a clear opportunity.
Remote support was certain.
– Kwadeuk! Kwajik!
I could clearly see how swarms of bats flying everywhere formed shapes here and there, tore the mages who were bombarding me from a distance, tore them to death, and turned them into blood.
Antirianus that old man. Could you even use something similar to the clone technique?
Fortunately, the wizards who attacked from a distance were distracted by Antirianus.
People are running away, but they are clearly watching this scene.
That’s why the empire can’t help me, and shouldn’t either.
You have to get out on your own.
Still, there is something odd about it.
I keep an eye on those who measure the distance.
There were a few people who were certain of the Master Class, and there were people who were equivalent to the Archmage, but I’m not sure.
It was because the wizards, who were not easily defeated by Antirianus, were fighting an interception.
“But you guys, why is this the only thing?”
But, why is the Black Order the only one?
It is true that it is clearly a strong force, and there are many things that are difficult for me to deal with alone.
But if their goal is to kill me, it will inevitably mean that the Black Order’s power is concentrated in this place.
These are obviously not the ones to look at funny.
If you think of it as the best of the Black Order that I imagined, it is too shabby.
“The Empire and you aren’t the only ones who dealt with the gate crisis on their own.”
Someone who has been watching me from afar walks by.
“That’s it.”
The Black Order only appeared once in the original story, and has not been mentioned since.
That would mean that they were dealing with the gate incident and the monster in the background of the story.
Two years after the Gate Incident.
The Black Order must have been fighting and fighting to cope with the Gate situation.
And then, naturally, it weakened.
Losing combatants over and over again.
It’s true that it’s definitely a military force, but this is the only one gathered to eliminate me, the most important seed of the conflict.
The Black Order was waiting for me in a place where I was predicted to come.
The person walking toward me soon took off his hood and showed his face.
Naturally, he was the first mature man I had ever seen.
Because looks aren’t everything, I don’t know how old he really is.
Although he was a mature man, his gray hair, which had been counted white, made it difficult to guess his age.
As he approached me, the other members of the Black Order who were confronting me slowly began to back away.
That, to some extent, gauged the status of the approaching man.
“Are you the head of the order?”
He looks at me quietly and shakes his head.
“well… … . The word chief doesn’t seem right. Originally, everything is decided by the meeting of the top members of the Order.”
I couldn’t read anything in his eyes.
“But now that all members of the highest rank except me are dead… … . I don’t think it’s wrong to say that I’m the chief.”
He speaks quietly, with his sword hanging down.
“Ardemon, how about dying here for humanity?”
“… … You want me to die?”
The middle-aged man nodded at my question.
“You are the human race, no. I know you love all beings very, very much.”
“So Epinhauser, who has been watching you the longest among us, died for you.”
“Because I know you.”
“Isn’t it because I know your love?”
“You know that with your death, mankind can accomplish quite a lot.”
“The distrust between each other.”
“Despair overflowing with boiling.”
“This situation in which mankind is looking for a scapegoat to overcome despair.”
“I can’t say that I can overcome all of them, but this phenomenon of mankind looking for human scapegoats other than the demon king due to the unsatisfied thirst for revenge will stop.”
“But if you die, mankind will gain hope.”
“Of course, we know that hope is not worth much.”
“You don’t know that nothing can be achieved with false hope.”
“But without hope, you cannot live.”
“You are a symbol of hatred and despair.”
“Look.”
Men in terror point to crowds of people crushing each other to death.
“Sadly, your existence creates despair and fear.”
“… … .”
“No matter what you think of humans, they see nothing but fear and despair in you.”
“… … .”
“When you show your face, you panic people with fear and despair.
That there are only a handful of people who understand my intentions.
I couldn’t deny that.
I am nothing more than a representation of hatred, despair, and pain.
My existence is only a symbol of fear to mankind, and an enemy to be destroyed.
Even if you can see it in people’s eyes.
even if you don’t see it
It’s just that the driving force of emotions is different, and I’m the only one who drives people crazy.
“You love humans, but you don’t trust humans.”
“You wouldn’t think that a misunderstanding that was so deep that it couldn’t be resolved could be resolved in a beautiful way. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have entered the temple in hiding.”
“Just as we tried to deal with the situation in our own way and this reduced our power, so you must have tried to deal with this situation in your own way. Also, aren’t you here to save those who don’t believe in you?”
“Not everything has been finished, but I am worried about what will happen after it is finished.”
“Someday there will be a war.”
“In a situation where these wounds are not healed, humans will insist that we subdue the demon lord who is the source of this situation.”
“Even if you don’t want it, even if the empire doesn’t want it, even if the emperor doesn’t want it.”
“You must feel that war is bound to happen.”
“People rather than kill monsters wandering the continent. You must know that you wish for the death of the Demon King.”
“Today, you tried to save Charlotte de Gradias.”
“I think it is a very, great love and understanding.”
“Demon King.”
“So, can’t you just die now?”
“Before more blood is shed.”
“Before more despair and sorrow engulf the world.”
“With your death, save mankind.”
“Please.”
Apart from blocking my way, it was clear that he admired my presence.
Regardless of my intentions, my very existence is already a disaster.
So, if it was for the sake of humanity, he was asking me to die right here.
It was a story I knew that a war might break out after the Gate incident was over.
The Gate Crisis is the original ending.
But after that, a war breaks out. There will be a war because of me alone.
If I die in this place, while countless humans are watching, there will be no war.
People will cheer that the demon king is dead.
The search for a scapegoat for forces related to the demon king, including the five main religions, will no longer take place.
It has nothing to do with my will.
Life generates only despair, fear, and hatred.
Death can save many people.
So please die right here, before more sacrifices are made.
They salute me and ask me to die.
“What is your name?”
At my question, the older man shook his head.
“I cannot tell you. An ugly being like me would not have the right to name a great being like you.”
I could feel that he respected me very much beyond his age.
Apart from that, they stand in my way because I must die.
“But we are the Black Order.”
“If evil is to do good, it is they who do it.”
“I’m not going to justify it. We are not interested in that.”
“We are the evil that kills you. I just want to do good to save mankind.”
Is it sophistry?
But I didn’t want to point that out too much.
Everyone has a definition they believe in.
That definition is its own sophistry. The man in front of me also stood in front of me to live for it.
“If I die, less people will die, it must be true.”
Yes, that might be justice.
it could be a line
I may have to die
than to live. There may be more things that can be accomplished by dying.
In the first place, if I had died and disappeared, none of this would have happened.
As long as the world’s malice is directed at me, the more I struggle to do something, the greater the tragedy and disaster it may become and block my path.
but.
“But it is. I want to tell you this.”
I add strength to the hand holding Alsbringer.
“F*ck it.”
I am.
want to live
Alive.
Somehow, I live with this grin.
It is not a life that is completed by dying.
Not to die of resignation and despair.
“I will live and save.”
certainly.
Alive.
not death
“Whatever the hell I need to save.”
I want to achieve something with my life.
“Alive.”
I don’t want to die and feel comfortable.
“Alive, what I sought with my own eyes. what remains.”
I want to live even if the road I have to live is the thorny road of despair.
“I will see it with my own eyes.”
I want to live and be happy.
Alive.
Although you can’t restore everything that has been broken.
Relationships that can be fixed are somehow fixed.
I want to be happy.
I know it’s foolish and miserable to dream of such a thing, even at this moment when the world has fallen, when so much has been broken.
I want to be happy, I definitely think so.
It’s not wrong to dream of it, isn’t it?
No, could it be wrong?
It could be wrong for someone like me to want that.
still.
i hope it
At my words, the older man looked at me and nodded.
“okay. Right.”
He aimed his sword at me, and the sword was engulfed in blue magical flames.
In his empty left hand, an unknown black aura was swirling.
“I will remember you.”
As if I would remember for the rest of my life how great I was.
“If I die, will you remember me too?”
The head of the Black Order left those words behind and pointed the dangling sword at me.
“That’s about it, I can do it.”
To the first enemy to try to kill me out of respect, not hate.
Isn’t that what you can do?
At my words, an unknown middle-aged man smiles.
“It’s not the strongest, the worst, or the worst.”
“The best demon king.”
“I salute you.”
There was no further conversation.
