154. Finally
Can not be done.
never be
It was never mentioned directly, but everyone who watched Berze Deias and Ernap Hilderan from the Demon King’s Tower said it in unison.
There is a strange air current flowing between the two.
You might ask if it makes sense that such an air current flows between the demon king and the kidnapped human princess, but in Hillen’s view, Berge Deias and Ernian Hilderan were nonsensical in the first place compared to normal demon kings and princesses.
What kind of demon king in the world thinks of accepting a princess into his family, and what kind of princess in the world will accept it and become the Four Heavenly Kings?
You have to clap your hands to make a sound.
‘By the way, do I want to marry Ernyl Hilderan?’
The devil is angry
Ernya Hilderan is furious.
‘I hate people who covet mine.’
‘It’s the same with me, my lord. Do you dare to think that you can stand by my side? Will you kill me?’
‘Tear off the limbs and give the necks to the ogres as food.’
‘That’s a good idea.’
The image of a demon king and a princess who will dismantle themselves with a bright smile was drawn.
But most of all, Hillen himself hated it. Even though she was a princess, she was such a beauty… No, she was a strange princess.
The king’s face hardened as he sensed the change in Hillen’s complexion.
“Looks like you didn’t like my offer.”
“Oh, no. but···.”
“but?”
“Shouldn’t we also listen to the wishes of the Crown Princess?”
“You don’t have to. All we need is your will.”
if not.
“You don’t like it?”
“I am not qualified.”
“If you, who killed the two demon kings, are not qualified, will my daughter die alone for the rest of her life?”
“It is for the Princess to decide, not me.”
“I see.”
The king clicked his tongue.
Even so, he could not openly persecute Hillen Cargill.
It was different from the previous one to rescue Ernyan. At that time, the kingdom had a cause, but not this time.
Fortunately, Hillen Cargill has left room for himself, so we have no choice but to commit to it.
“I hope you can take responsibility for what you said.”
“of course.”
Hillen sighed in relief and nodded vigorously.
he was sure Ernap would never allow it?

Werft Kingdom. The king of the dwarves who built and lived underground cities could not contain the rising anger.
The report was shredded.
“Hey, you mean nowhere?”
The kidnapped artisans and Louise Werft. The Dwarves thought that the culprit was the demon lord of lust.
It was because she was the only demon king who could use the craftsmen. Because he almost had a grudge against Louise Werft.
From that moment, the kingdom of Werft planned a brave trip to save the princess and the artisans.
He sent envoys to each country to ask for cooperation and promised to trade Dwarven equipment. He paid a huge donation to the Heroes’ Guild.
Hilderan, Hessen, and Akan promised to cooperate, and the Heroes’ Guild also decided to dispatch a new star, Wharton Colo, on behalf of the Daphner Philian.
So everything went smoothly.
Unlike other places, it was a pirate archipelago infested with pirates, but the naval squadrons of Akan and Hasen agreed to help, so death of lust was almost inevitable.
But suddenly the tower collapsed.
should be happy But I couldn’t be happy.
Because no traces were found in the collapsed tower.
49 artisans too.
Louise Werft too.
They didn’t have anything, not even a single hair.
I couldn’t believe it.
When the Demon King dies, the tower collapses. And all those who were imprisoned in it are freed.
Undead demons and demons are scattered everywhere, and the prisoners are released from prison.
That’s common. It should have been this time too.
“Hey, where the hell did you go?!”
But it wasn’t.
“Your Majesty, I think it may have been abducted by pirates of the Serratine Islands.”
“You mean kidnapping again?”
“The location of the tower itself was the realm of the pirates. And it’s no secret that pirates covet their craftsmen.”
In fact, the corps sent to find the princess this time had also suffered some damage from the pirates’ attacks.
“But do you think that no matter how many pirates they are, they can kidnap Louise without making such a noise?”
“But if not, it makes no sense. If you came to the continent yourself from the Seratin Islands, traces should be found in Akan, Dormut, or Hessen. A whopping 50 dwarves. They move all at once and nothing is left behind.”
I wouldn’t know if I hadn’t come across it at all.
The king swallowed a groan at his words. In fact, everyone here thought so. I just don’t want to remember.
If it is really kidnapped by pirates, it is because it is almost impossible to save the princess and the artisans.
The pirates of the Seratin Islands were like cockroaches who failed to subdue Akan and Dormut.
No matter how much Werft promises unlimited dwarven equipment, there is no other country that would enter a war like a swamp.
To wage guerrilla warfare using geographical advantage and to grow back like a weed even if killed or killed.
“…there is still no answer at the top of the golden moon.”
“They also told me that they bought it through someone. But in the end, he did not open his mouth to know who he was.”
“Put the pressure on the Iasin Kingdom.”
“Yes.”
Awarded. It was too award-winning.
However, the reason for not being able to find out forcibly is because there was a high possibility that it would spread into a diplomatic problem with the Iasin Kingdom, and they did not think that they would have kidnapped the dwarves and princesses.
I can only guess that a certain hero is involved and that the hero is a giant enough to have to put a lot of effort on the top of the golden moon.
“Are there any chances of Hillen Cargill coming out?”
“There is not. Hillen Cargill was active in the social circles of the royal capital of Hilderan at the time. And if that’s the case, wouldn’t there be no reason to hide it?”
“Yes, yes.”
Above all, what matters now is not who killed the demon king of lust and took the horns.
Even though the tower had disappeared, they were invisible princesses and artisans.
“Hello, you mean pirates?”
“We must dry their seeds.”
“you’re right. We must make them realize what the cost of touching the dwarfs is.”
One by one they began to resent.
“They are none other than artisans in the royal workshop. If the state does not protect them, who will believe in the kingdom?”
“The pride of the Dwarves has been stolen. The pride of the race cannot survive without being brought back.”
“Your Majesty, if there is a precedent for lukewarm handling, humans will belittle the Dwarves.”
“Subdue the pirates!”
“Subdue the pirates!”
Instead, they bowed their heads.
The king opened his mouth at their tenacity.
“It’s not that I don’t want to either. But the Pirate Islands are their fortress that has never been subjugated.”
“There is no need to eradicate them. You have to make that gesture and get them to lower their tails first.”
“Are you feeling threatened? We’re going to use the method we’re good at.”
“Yes, there are those who want to get rid of pirates more than us, don’t they?”
The world calls them the Kingdom of Dormund, the Kingdom of Akan, and the Kingdom of Hessen.
“We must promise the support of the magic cannons and the artisans. Promise hundreds or even thousands of magic cannons, and send artisans to strengthen your ships. We have to do everything we can to help them, as it has never been and will never be.”
Only then will a nation capable of immersing its feet in the pit of pirate subjugation emerge.
“What are the magic cannons and weapon technologies that will be leaked in the process?”
“I will have to endure it. Technology can get ahead again with time and effort. However, once lost trust and honor, it is difficult to restore.”
“…you are right.”
The king closed his eyes for a moment and pondered. The gods were right. But I couldn’t deny that it was too emotional.
No matter how directly related to the honor of the kingdom and the safety of the people, to wage a war with them was like falling into a swamp.
The opponent was a pirate group that had already endured several subjugations. No matter how much support they give, perfect subjugation is impossible, and if they don’t get scared first and don’t raise their white flag, it’s no different than falling into a deep swamp.
The safety of the princess and the artisans will fall even more into a labyrinth.
‘If they even die…’
He might go crazy.
That little cute child…
Not provoking the pirates might be a better way to keep her alive. But he was a king, and he couldn’t decide everything because he was biased.
“…it’s good. But don’t limit the country to just one, and let it go towards technical alliances and exchanges, not mere support.”
It is the human emotion that if one cannot have it, no one else should have it.
There were a lot of people on the continent who would not want to see Werft’s weapons and technologies flow only to the Kingdom of Akan.
especially empire. If they set a candle, the Werft Kingdom is also in danger. So, I had to make a strong breakwater.
“Send ambassadors to the Seratin Islands and to the imminent kingdoms. Dormut, Hesse, and even Akan.”
“Yes.”
“You should pay special attention to Akan. Ask about the Demon King’s horns and get a small clue if it’s okay. It is said that it was officially obtained through the Golden Top, but there is a high possibility that Akan is also involved.”
“Yes, I will follow your orders.”
“Take care of the details. The kingdom should never suffer any loss.”
“Yes. I will do my best.”
Two days later, the dwarven kingdom’s delegation departed for the three kingdoms.

“Finally, the time has come!”
Balaf Dislord, who was in charge of the Brave Squad, went up on the podium.
He looked down at the 500 crew members and opened his mouth slowly.
“The Demon Lord of Flames is different from the Demon Lords up to now. Erzestra built a tower on the rough terrain to obstruct the search and blocked us from the outside, not the tower.”
“In the course of a simple search of the tower, great damage was done, and the proud star, Daphner Philian, died.”
“He was a new type of demon king that had never been seen before.”
His voice was serene and unpretentious. But that made the crew’s heart pound even more.
“Erny Hilderan. I kidnapped the Crown Princess of Hilderan.”
“Kaede Jespine. I kidnapped His Majesty the 9th Princess of this Empire.”
“Helena Hilderan. I kidnapped the 13th Princess of Hilderan.”
“No demon lord has kidnapped the right to succession to the throne. We humans made it that way. But the Demon King of Fire broke that unwritten rule.”
“We trampled on and trespassed on everything that we have achieved over a thousand years. While hiding the tower, they laughed at us and ravaged the continent!”
We do it.
“I had to watch! I couldn’t find the tower, because I didn’t know where it was!”
But now it wasn’t.
“With the sacrifice of the Daphner Philian, we found the tower! The time has come to punish that vicious demon king who doesn’t even have the courage to show off his tower proudly!”
Sureung-
Ballaf Dislord drew his sword. The pure white sword was reflected in the sunlight.
“we are!”
“I will cut the head of that vicious demon king who made fun of humans and ravaged the continent, revealing that justice lives on the continent!”
Wow-
“Come out!”
So Captain, Ballaf Dislord. A squad of 512 warriors, including Gillian Eind and Aina Diaphrin, as well as the new star Wharton Colo, as commanders, began the bravery.
It was an unprecedented troop of warriors made up of all four-star warriors.
It was the desperate will of the Empire and the Emperor to kill the Demon King of Fire.

“My lord! Finally done!”
A pure white snow mountain with heavy snow falling.
One dwarf jumped and cheered.
