Episode 279. Omen of disaster (2)
“Aaaah!”
A dizzying scream was heard from the street.
The three women intuitively knew that the screams were accompanied by pain.
As a result, I immediately ran out into the street where I heard the sound.
“W-what is this?”
All three women’s eyes lit up at the incredible sight that soon unfolded before their eyes.
“If I had to define it, I would say it was massacre.”
Yes.
The situation unfolding before the three women was literally a massacre.
Strange monsters with their entire bodies hidden in robes were swinging their swords indiscriminately at the demons.
The targets of the massacre were powerless demons.
“Why is this suddenly happening… … !”
Arin, who was confused as she could not understand the situation, immediately focused her attention on the swords wielded by the monsters.
“That one?”
It was a very familiar sword to Arin.
“It’s a sword used by frontline knights!”
A pure white longsword used by high-ranking knights guarding the front lines under the command of Duke Berthe, lord of Belias.
Swinging that sword means
“Then it means that the frontline knights are carrying out a massacre in the demon world.”
It meant that it was the worst situation that could never be tolerated.
“We have to stop it!”
Without a moment of hesitation, Arin ran straight towards the knights.
Runab and Nana followed suit.
“Move! Move!”
“We have to run away quickly!”
The demons were unable to respond at all to the sudden situation, and they were all busy screaming and running away.
They did not have the talent to stand up to the high-ranking knights who were said to be the best in the human world.
In an emergency situation, it was no different from the human behavior of putting one’s own life first.
“help!!”
At the scene, a young demon child who could not escape was desperately seeking help in the middle of the street.
However, before the child knew it, a blade had appeared behind him to lead him to the border of death.
The child closed his eyes tightly, unable to even scream.
-visor!
“… … ?”
The child, realizing that he was not dead, carefully opened his eyes.
“Are you okay?”
Instead of answering, the child just nodded.
After confirming that the child was safe, Arin was not relieved and immediately focused her attention on the driver.
-Gigeek!
However, Arin could not withstand the powerful force of the senior knight.
The balance collapsed in an instant, and Arin held on desperately to avoid falling.
“Blow! A gust of cold water!”
‘Aqua Blast’, a fusion magic of water and wind attributes.
In a close situation, Lunav’s support attack was added.
-puck!
The knight who failed to respond was hit by magic and was thrown away.
“Hurry and run away!”
“yes! Thank you!”
The child was able to escape safely under the guidance of Lunav, who followed him.
The knights immediately surrounded Arin.
“You cover your faces, but I know who you are. So don’t try to hide it!”
Arin confidently shouted while looking at the knights without showing any sign of giving in.
“What is the reason for committing this unacceptable massacre?”
The knights did not answer.
Their obscured faces showed no independent will at all.
The sight was like looking at a doll.
“It doesn’t seem like you have any intention of answering.”
“Do you have any guesses, Lunav?”
“Unfortunately, there isn’t any. “It’s my first time coming to the Demon World and meeting those knights.”
As the two women became more suspicious,
-Sigh
Suddenly, the knights who confronted each other began to take a step to the side.
After a while, a familiar being appeared in the gaping space.
“… … !”
Arin, who figured out his identity, bit her lip tightly and tightly grabbed the hilt of the sword.
“You followed me all the way here. “Princess Arin.”
“Duke Bert!”

strength.
It is an absolute element that must be possessed to maintain order in this chaotic demon world.
There is only one being called the Demon King who can control everything.
Sane? peace?
There is no need for such weak, weak things.
Because this demon world is not the human world,
Everything must be governed by the absolute element called power.
“Belkarion?”
“… … .”
“Belkarion!”
“huh? “Did you call Bestie?”
Only after calling twice did Belkarion raise his head and respond.
“Are you listening to me?”
“What were you talking about?”
“Father, I will explain everything that happened with Ascaron…” … .”
“I said I already heard about that from Rogers, so there’s no need to say it. “It’s okay, so you don’t have to say anything more.”
Belkarion told her not to worry, saying it had already passed, but Betsy’s heart actually became more anxious.
“Fine… … “Oh?”
“why? “Do I look bad?”
Despite her feelings, Betsy could not bear to nod her head.
Belcarion was smiling as if what was the problem.
“Don’t worry about me, take care of yourself. “You know I can’t do it without you.”
At that moment, Betsy got goosebumps all over her body.
It was a very emotional statement when I heard it normally, but why?
It sounded particularly uneasy today.
“Hey Belkarion. I thought about it and I guess… … .”
-dump
Bestie, who was trying to continue talking while holding his hand, suddenly collapsed into the devil’s arms.
“Bestie?”
Belkarion was stunned for about a second because he did not recognize the situation.
“what? Why all of a sudden… … ?”
But soon he realized something was wrong and quickly pulled her away.
“Bestie, come to your senses! Bestie!”
I grabbed her and shook her, but Betsy had already lost consciousness and couldn’t open her eyes.
Even while I was unconscious, I was still holding the pendant tightly in my hand.
“Somebody hurry up and run! “Bestie has collapsed!”
Soon the castle’s healers rushed in and transported her.
Fortunately, he was still alive, but he was in a much more critical condition than when he first collapsed.
“It seems like all your life force has been used up.”
Rogers, who checked Betsy’s condition, told her why she collapsed.
Until now, Lunav had continuously replenished her life energy, so she was able to maintain her sanity.
Now that Lunav has left the castle to find Xian, there is no way to restore Betsy’s vitality.
The pendant worn by Bestie was emitting a more intense light than before.
“The pendant’s enhanced power is absorbing Betsy’s vitality even faster.”
“so. “What am I supposed to do?”
“For the sake of emergency measures, I think it would be a good idea to bring back Miss Runav, who has left the castle.”
Well, it’s just a temporary measure anyway.
It was not a direct solution to save Betsy.
“Demon Lord!”
In the meantime, another demon came rushing in from outside the door.
“They say something big is happening in Arem right now!”
“Big deal?”
“yes! Unidentified monsters are massacring the residents… … !”
-Kwaak
Before the demons finished speaking,
Before he knew it, the Demon King approached him and grabbed him by the collar.
“Massacre? “What does that mean?”
The demon could not continue speaking and only moaned in pain.
“Calm down, Demon King!”
Rogers quickly stopped him.
The demon, who was out of breath, soon opened his mouth with difficulty.
“Um, unidentified humans appeared in Arem and swung swords at the residents!”
“… … !”
Instead of Belkarion, who was speechless due to shock, Rogers asked.
“A human? “Are you saying that humans attacked us demons?”
“Yes, I think so! Fortunately, other humans appeared and saved the demons… … !”
-Clink!
Before the demon could finish speaking, Belcarion spread his wings and flew through the window.
“Demon King!”
Rogers’ earnest cries were completely ignored.
He was flying toward Arem with a bloody expression on his face, but suddenly turned and headed in the other direction.
It was none other than the side where Lemea Gorge was located.
-chin
Exactly the same place as then.
Belkarion folded his wings and settled on the ground, his eyes sharpened as he advanced along the stem of the Blood River.
Before long, the owner of the blonde holy sword appeared.
“I see you again. “Demon King.”
When he faced the person he had been looking for again, magic energy erupted from Belcarion’s body like an explosion.
“It sounds like you knew I was coming?”
“I think you’ll be very anxious around this time. I came early and was waiting. “It looks like you’ve been desperately looking for me all this time.”
Eshel laughed even more strangely than before, irritating Belkarion.
Belkarion’s face was very cruel.
“You have already crossed a huge line. Your future has been decided. Even if this demon world is ruined by your hands! “I will tear you to pieces with my own hands!”
Now, it doesn’t matter if he saves Betsy.
Belcarion declared in front of the party that he would definitely kill Eshel with his own hands.
“Even if you kill me, shouldn’t you save those who need to be saved?”
However, as if this was also expected, Eshel continued with a smile.
“Are you planning on leaving Miss Betsy to die like this?”
– Wedge!
The Demon King could not stand it any longer and rushed at Eshel with his fists.
-Shoo shoo shoo
Several pure white blades fell like lightning on his head.
Belkarion received the blade all over his body as if it was a joke.
Even though dozens of blades were inserted into his body, he suffered no damage.
“If you kill me, you won’t be able to save Miss Betsy.”
“I guess that’s something I’ll have to wait and see!”
Belkarion reached out again and tried to grab his body, but the moment his hand touched his body, it trembled like a wave and then disappeared in an instant.
It was an illusion, not a body.
“You just need to do one thing.”
Although his body disappeared, his voice continued to linger in Belkarion’s ears.
“Please kill Xian.”
“… … !”
“Then you can save Miss Betsy. From now on, you can either come to the human world to kill me or just leave me alone.”
With those words, Eshel’s voice completely disappeared.
Left alone, Belcarion suddenly burst into laughter as he looked up at the sky, and eventually roared loudly.
“okay! I’ll do whatever you want! From now on, I will destroy everything! “I will destroy your existence and the world you live in!”
The Demon King, who shouted the proclamation, immediately stretched out one hand and concentrated his demon energy.
-Growling
Soon, a black flame appeared in his hand, and the flame seemed to gradually spread downward, soon taking the form of a red sword.
The devil’s cruel nature has finally awakened.
The laughter of an unknown heroic spirit spread loudly throughout the canyon.
