83 – Witch’s Village
***
I quickly flew up in the sky and put the demon castle within range.
“Everybody die.”
Maru opened his mouth wide.
Dark red mana gathered in the mouth, forming a sphere and spinning rapidly.
This is a technique that was shot head-on into the face of Demon King Insulei the other day.
A sphere of high-density condensed magic power.
Leviathan’s skill Abyssal Breath.
fired towards the demonic castle.
The dark red orb flew in a straight line.
When it collided with the demonic castle, it caused a huge explosion and threw it off balance.
“Awesome!”
“Ohhh!”
“The Crown Prince is someone who can destroy even a kingdom by himself!”
“To see such a rare sight!”
“strong! Very strong!”
The king and ministers who were watching from the fortress exclaimed.
The half-destroyed demonic castle was falling at an angle.
Victory, which was thought to be impossible, was approaching.
-Haanmaaruuuuuu!
Inside the falling demonic castle, Barbasus soared through the acrid smoke.
With the head of a bull and the body of a man, he gnashed his teeth and charged toward the floor at high speed.
His body was also enlarged.
coong!
They clung to each other in the air.
They fought fiercely, biting and biting with sharp claws while spinning round and round.
“Kaa!”
“Krrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
However, Leviathan is a monster specialized in hand-to-hand combat.
The strongest in close combat, whose whole body, from head to toe, even tail, has been developed so that it can easily tear opponents to death.
Clinging close to Maru was no different from committing suicide.
“Answer me. Who else besides you wants to kill me?”
“Ahahaha! Many, many! The Demon King’s third daughter Jocasta is also targeting you! We have an agreement! Whoever catches you first will become the Demon King!”
“Did you bet on me? It’s ridiculous. Do you think they can beat me under the devil? Anyway thanks for the info bye.”
Chow!
Barbassus’s chest was ripped open, his entrails scattered into the air.
“Gagging… ! This, to be this strong… !”
Maru flapped his wings and pulled out his head.
“I’ll have to catch and kill the kid named Jocasta first.”
I looked around.
As Barbassus was killed right in front of his eyes, the demons were frightened and were fleeing.
He flapped his wings vigorously to give them greater despair.
***
The devil’s castle crashed into the field with a roaring fire.
At the same time, Hergantia, who had transformed into a gigantic goddess, quickly disappeared.
Maru, who cleaned up the sky, came down to the ground and returned to his human form.
“Maru!”
“Floor!”
“lily!”
Lucy, Natalie, and Luciella came running.
The three women smiled brightly and looked at Maru with a face looking for praise.
Maru first hugged Luciella and then patted her shoulder.
“Good job. You will always be there.”
Luciella breathed in Maru’s body odor and made an ecstatic expression.
“Haha… lily… !”
Then he spat out a light word to Lucy and Natalie.
“Good work, both of you. I’ll get the mercenary money soon. Go and rest.”
“I-over there… ”
“Already, do you want to go back?”
“Why, what do you have to say?”
“Can’t you hug me?”
“I want to stay more!”
“Your Highness the Crown Prince!”
“majesty!”
Imperial griffon troops descended from the sky.
As soon as they landed on the ground, they immediately jumped at Maru.
Lucy and Natalie looked sullen as they pushed back.
“Are you not hurt?”
“I am OK. Are any of you injured?”
“Thanks to Your Highness’ performance, everyone is safe.”
“You were really nice!”
“This is the victory Your Highness has achieved!”
“Thanks to you.”
Maru smiled and looked at Benjaris.
She was speechless but delighted.
He tapped his shoulder and spoke.
“It was a lot of trouble.”
“… … ”
She bowed her head in gratitude.
Immediately, people from the royal capital rushed in.
“Son-in-law! You saw all of me! I saw them all! I fought the demon king like this and won! You are another sun!”
The king, who admired Maru, was excited and praised him highly.
The ministers also looked at the floor with their eyes sparkling in awe.
For a while, it was noisy in front of the burning demon castle.
Soldiers dispatched from the capital surrounded the demon castle and waited until the fire was completely extinguished.
The flames that burned all night burned down a large part of the Devil’s Castle and were extinguished by noon the next day.
***
A week has passed.
The palace was still busy.
The wizards and scholars of the kingdom were busy investigating the demonic castle that had crashed into the field.
It seemed that there was no result as there was no news yet.
Maru also looked around the castle a few days ago, but it was all broken and burned, so there was nothing to see.
“I should have destroyed it in moderation… ”
morning.
Maru muttered to himself in a sleepy voice.
I raised my upper body on the bed.
After yawning profusely, I kissed Audrit on the cheek, who was lying next to me, and walked out of bed.
Audrey was still asleep.
Having received a revelation from God the other day, she was quite excited.
To build the Belcran Temple, he worked until late every night to gather people and formulate a detailed plan.
When I tried to dissuade him from taking a slow break, she refused to listen, saying that she wanted to become a saint quickly.
Apparently, the goal seemed to be to bring a Dwarf famous for his skill from far away and complete it within half a year.
“It would be nice if the temple was built, but the number of believers would increase.”
Maru recalled Metpe, whom he met in Narundra a few months ago.
It was the day I met Kiera alone at the clinic.
At that time, Metpe contacted me to meet first, and when I met her, I heard that Kiera was hospitalized in the treatment center, and I met and talked with Kiera.
Anyway, when I met Metpe, she said this.
‘The form of Belcran I met before was a star destroyer. Humanity has tried to erase all traces of him in order to forget his terrible suffering. That’s why there aren’t many people who remember it now.’
‘Now he’s like a baby that came out of an egg. It won’t have any influence in your era. After you die, time flies and you build up your strength little by little, and perhaps it will only come to prominence after a thousand years. At that time, I wonder if he will be a destroyer for the conquest of the stars or a preserver for the protection of the stars.’
‘It’s all up to you. Those who believe in Belcran must not follow the doctrine of evil. You today are like the founder of a religion that disappeared thousands of years ago. Believers should always preach only good things. If you do that, Belcran will surely receive good energy and become the preserver of the planet.’
Maru poured water into an empty bowl.
“I didn’t know you were a dangerous rookie. He seemed like a good person to me.”
I was muttering to myself, and then I had another thought.
“By the way, Kiera hasn’t even blown her nose for a week. Did she really leave?”
I didn’t know if she could hear me well.
It was amazing.
And aside from Kiera, Galatea had been bedridden for over a week.
Even if he tries to visit the hospital, he is unable to meet because Benzaris is desperately blocking it.
“Why are you hiding so much… ”
If Galatea were a mother, it would make no sense to be sick.
Mother has never been sick.
He’s the kind of person who doesn’t even catch a cold.
“Are you really another woman, not your mother?”
In addition to Kiera and Galatea, there is another woman whose face I cannot see these days.
“When will Luciella upload it?”
Currently, Luciella is on her way to find out where the demon Jocasta lives.
Maru was going to leave to annihilate as soon as she located it.
The sword goddess Hergantia also promised to help.
There was nothing to fear as long as she was with her, who had great power.
“Let’s stop thinking about it and pray in the morning. Mr. Belkran. That floor. Did you have a peaceful night? Even today… ”
***
At the end of the prayer, I heard Velcrania’s voice, not Belcran’s.
-Go to Rokonkir right now.
Maru tilted his head.
“Why are you there?”
-Find your strength.
“My strength?”
– You lost your power. get it back reap Hurry up.
“Please explain in detail what you mean. I can’t understand you when you say that.”
I waited for more clarification, but nothing came of it after that.
“Aww. What is the mystery concept? You have to tell me in detail.”
Lokonkir.
It is located outside the kingdom of Basilite and is known as a village where witches live.
It took more than three hours to fly.
“You want to go right now? Well… ”
Maru decided to go once.
After waking up Audrit, who had been sleeping late, and explaining the situation, I immediately packed my things.
“Come back safely!”
After a while, he answered Audrit from the top of the tower, who was waving, and flew away from the sky.
A few hours later we arrived near Rokonkir.
“Is it a polar night phenomenon? It’s dark here even during the day.”
My first impression was that it was a gloomy area.
“What do you mean here?”
I walked from a distance so as not to be noticed.
After arriving at Rokonkir, the panoramic view of the village unfolded.
“It’s gloomy, but it’s doing well.”
Suddenly, Velcrania’s voice echoed in my ears like an echo.
– east, east. hills, hills. A lonely house, a lonely house, a lonely house…
Maru’s gaze moved as it was.
“Is that house?”
I moved silently, avoiding the eyes of the witches.
Soon after, Maru was greatly surprised when he opened the door of the hill house and entered.
“Kiera… ?”
“Brother’s voice… ?”
A naked Kiera was seen curled up on the living room floor, tied to a dog leash.
It was really unexpected.
But it wasn’t the silver-haired Kiera.
His hair color was completely black.
In an instant, he sensed that he had lost the power of a hero.
He took off his helmet and asked.
“Why are you here?”
“brother… !”
She covered her mouth with both hands and burst into tears of joy.
“Are you here to rescue me? thank you! Sobbing!”
what.
