207. The Demon King named Jason
After finishing all the urgent work, Berge had time to spare.
Finally, he headed to the prison where the enemy who had killed him so much wanted to kill was.
The heart of a dark and damp prison.
Ballaf This Lord, no Daniel Deirus was there.
Each limb is bound, and restraints are connected at the neck and torso. It was a perfect constraint where even the slightest movement was impossible.
‘Hmm.’
Berger checked the recorder installed on one side. I’ve been sitting on the throne and watching Daniel through that, but seeing it in person was different.
I laughed out loud at the look of the old man who had been neglected for over a week.
“How can I make fun of you so that the rumor that I laughed at you is good? How can I make fun of you and make you feel dirty?”
What should he do to repay all the humiliation he suffered at that time?
“·················ogue.”
Daniel responded. He shook his head and his eyes met.
Even after a week of neglect, Daniel’s eyes still did not die.
Berge liked that more.
Because the hero who killed him is not a piece of garbage that breaks his will even in the slightest crisis.
At least not because I didn’t get hit by a weak bastard. It was a little comforting.
“You’re talking nonsense, too.”
“Yeah, now you don’t know. But it doesn’t matter. ‘Cause I know I’m happy By the way, what should I call you now?”
Ballaf Dislord? Or Daniel Deirus?
“What do you like to do? Do what you want.”
“Do you think you won?”
“I don’t think I won, I think I won. Because you became a criminal and imprisoned in a cold prison, and I trampled on all the warriors and won the victory.”
“…I admit that your power is strong. But you won’t be able to get what you want in the end.”
“You seem to believe in something.”
maybe that’s
“Is that Jason Cockmundo?”
“·················ogue.”
“But do you know that? Among the warriors who came to me, who dared to decapitate this body with you, there was someone who already knew your identity. Who do you think it will be?”
“···what?”
Daniel’s expression distorted for the first time.
“Didn’t a human who seemed unlikely to participate suddenly take part in the Heroic Movement?”
“Pablo Barkat…!”
“He was like that. The true identity of Ballaf Dislord is the guild leader.”
The true identity of the guild chief is Daniel Deirus, a hero who disappeared hundreds of years ago.
“How do you think he would have known you?”
“…Jason is crawling!”
Daniel grinded his teeth.
“I mean, it’s very strange. You and Jason have been allies for quite some time. But you want to hit the back of the head here too.”
“Hey, it’s not unexpected. A reliable alliance between demons and humans cannot be established in the first place. Betrayal and hitting the back of the head isn’t your specialty.”
“That would mean that you didn’t completely trust Jason either, and you were prepared.”
“·················ogue.”
“The moment I found out about you, I had so many questions.”
How are you holding the Red Dragon Sword? What is the status of a guild leader, and what is the status of a ballaf dislord? Hundreds of years ago, after disappearing with the tower, exactly what happened.
“Before that, I wondered why a single hero was so strong, but luckily it was resolved.”
He must have killed quite a few demon lords while living for hundreds of years.
“But it looked different. In particular, that.”
skin.
“Your outer skin was so perfect that no one noticed.”
“Do you think I can tell you?”
“Maybe Jason helped. But I can’t really guess the exact way.”
Berge came in stride. The distance between the two grew sharply.
Berge grabbed Daniel’s shoulder.
“Are you going to torture yourself? only?”
“Don’t worry, it’s different from torture. Well, it must be painful.”
“What?”
“I thought about it. You were already hiding your identity with a shell. then.”
Can this shell I’m using right now be called the real thing?
“What?”
“No matter how many hundreds of years have passed, he was the most famous hero on the continent, and disappeared because of his achievements. There’s no way that record doesn’t exist. But when I was the guild leader, didn’t anyone see Daniel Deirus and the guild leader as the same person?”
If he did, he would have been expelled from the guild at once and became a public figure.
Then there is only one answer.
“That your shells are not one.”
And it’s not like it’s what you see now.
“I’m going to check that out from now on.”
Berger gave strength to his hands. A gigantic magical spirit squirmed and penetrated the defense mechanism of the hero.
“Aaah!”
Daniel Deirus let out a painful scream. His pain was Berge’s joy, but now he concentrated on something else.
and.
───!
Berge’s fingers met with a strong anti-elasticity. All mana and power were suppressed, so it was not possible in general.
That gave Berge more confidence.
“How many layers are your shells?”
Berge’s hands got stronger.
In proportion to that, Daniel’s cry grew louder.
* * *
“Only one.”
I thought there were dozens, but there was only one shell.
It didn’t even mean that the hidden power came out when it was peeled off like the previous shell.
“This is just for hiding.”
Compared to the shell of the Balaf Dislord, it was very crude.
But if you don’t reveal your power, you can hide your identity close to perfection.
“There’s no way I’ve been living with just these two for hundreds of years, and I’ve been receiving supplies from Jason on a regular basis.”

Maybe it is. That must have been one way for Jason to control this guy.“So that’s what you really are?”
His face was sharper and fiercer than that of Ballaf Dislord or the guild leader.
But what did not change was his black hair and eyes.
“I thought he was an elf because he lived for hundreds of years, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.”
If I catch dozens of Demon Kings, will my lifespan increase? Or by breaking the limits of human beings?
Berge suppressed the laughter that was about to burst out of nowhere. I don’t know why I’m thinking of Ernya.
“…you motherfucker!”
“Yeah, those eyes. I wanted to see those eyes. Those eyes were what I wanted to see!”
A raging, seething rage.
“Isn’t it really sweet?”
It is the rage of a hero who has lived for hundreds of years, not knowing how many demon kings he must have killed. how sweet this is
“So, what is the identity of this shell?”
Berge touched the pieces that had fallen from Daniel. They could not withstand even the slightest force and crumbled.
“…do you think I’ll say it?”
Daniel Deirus drooled in pain, but his eyes did not die.
“Would it be good for you to talk too?”
“The bullshit doesn’t work.”
“You must have guessed that Jason was trying to betray you.”
“·················ogue.”
“As you know, I am also hostile to Jason. You say that the enemy of an enemy is a friend?”
“You can’t be friends with the Demon King.”
“But at least a small amount of cooperation for revenge is possible.”
Shouldn’t it be necessary to take revenge in the yard anyway?
“Once upon a time, I was still called a god, so I won’t stop you if you just let me die by showing mercy and being used.”
“It looks like you are the demon king of the snout, not the salt.”
“Listen as a compliment.”
“Save me.”
“Do you think you can?”
“I’ll give you a pair of arms. If you spare me instead, I’ll tell you everything you want.”
“I didn’t know you were good at talking nonsense.”
“Jason betrayed me, but you have insulted and shamed me many times. To me, Jason and you are not much different. If there is no guarantee that he will survive, there is no reason to burn everything to be nice to you.”
Daniel growled.
Even though all mana and strength were suppressed, the momentum was like a warrior who had lived for hundreds of years.
“Choose.”
Are you going to kill me and obey Jason?
Or will you save me and hurt Jason?
“My advice is, you can’t beat Jason without my help. You don’t know what kind of monster he is.”
“Well, at least I think I know better than you.”
“Is that so? Then it is.”
Daniel laughed.
“Do you know how he survived hundreds of years?”
“what?”
hundreds of years?
“Not a hundred years?”
“👀. look at it You don’t know anything about Jason!”
Daniel was crazy.
“Come on, what are you going to do? Will you save me and listen to what I want? Or will you kill me and leave everything in a labyrinth?”
Choose
The eyes of the hero who was called a god shone desperately.

“Aina, can you believe it?”
The place was full of broken glasses. However, Aina Sermune did not intend to put it away as usual.
It was different.
Today’s Jason was more angry and hated than usual. The moment I touched it, it was like an exploding volcano.
“I became a member of the Berge family of Reina Sordain. The same goes for Vivian Blunt.”
Not long ago, I received a call from the Demon Dragon who summoned him as an adversary to deal with Berger.
“I made a magic cannon using dwarves. I hired the Spirit King’s contractor.”
heh heh
“By blocking such bravery, even.”
He let out a self-deprecating laugh.
“I killed Ballaf Dislord.”

My hair was messed up.“So easy. The things I’ve been doing for hundreds of years can’t be denied so easily. I look really stupid.”
How can you not do what Berger did in just two years?
“···It’s not like that.”
“no. I didn’t think stupidly to bring the same demon lord into my family. I never thought of bringing the kidnapped royal family into my family.”
his voice grew louder.
“Draxon Doldorf! Ugar Belbek! Reina Sordain! If it was brought into the family! If only the kidnapped royals were brought into the family!”
If you really did.
“It would have been more than conquering the continent already. Isn’t it?”
“That is impossible.”
“impossible? Why is that impossible? Didn’t Berge show it? Isn’t that fucking bastard showing it to you!”
────!
A table made of high-quality wood was split into hundreds of pieces.
“That demon dragon! Dragon! Dragon! Even if there is a riot in the Demon Realm, it disturbs me here too! You bastards who are just born with their heads hanging as decorations!”
“Damn my plans! Overthrow the board I made and revolt!”
“What? I need to release more interference, so give me more magic? That I deliberately hid Berge’s abilities!”
───!
A sea of blood rose and swept the office. Lightning struck, and the blade of the wind cut through everything.
“You bastard demon dragons!”
“Because they were born, they do not even deserve to exist!”
Everything in the office was smashed.
Only the two of them stood still, Jason Cockmundo and Aina Sermune.
“…you showed me the ugliness.”
“it’s okay. We will sort it out.”
Aina trimmed Jason’s messy hair and outfit.
“What do you plan to do in the future?”
“Ballaf This Road was a key I prepared for a long time.”
“I don’t know everything.”
“It was the hope and despair of mankind that has been nurtured for hundreds of years.”
Feeding the Demon King and giving him money, he allowed him to gain strength and fame.
He hated all demon dragons in the world, as well as the standards created by demon dragons.
However, the standard was a sure way to get more magic and negative emotions, and he did not deny its practicality.
“The greater the hope, the greater the despair. Daniel Deirus was such a person. However, he noticed that he was constantly hiding his identity, so for the first time, we matched the rhythm.”
Because it was not needed at the time. But it’s been too long.
So, for now, the plan has been abandoned. Cooperation with Daniel Deirus has become so valuable that it is now indispensable.
Rather than throwing him away after aiming for something big, I decided that it would be better to work together and draw the picture I wanted slowly, even if it took time.
That was until the Demon Dragon appeared and ruined everything.
“The warriors are no longer meaningful.”
His strongest hand, Daniel Deirus, was defeated. Hillen Cargill, who saw the next thin cotyledon, was rather a Berge chess piece.
“Nevertheless, I think we need to gather strong men corresponding to the two Demon Kings and Four Heavenly Kings that Berge-nim has recruited and respond. more thoroughly.”
“But the hero is no longer….”
“But isn’t there another number? Berge-sama told me.”
“···no way.”
Aina was astonished.
“Then it becomes irreversible.”
“no. Berge-nim has brought Vivian-nim and Reina-sama into her family, but so far it has not been a problem. The reason I lost my connection with the Demon Realm was because I talked about Drakson-sama’s death. So that means.”
It means that Archduke Alkyne’s abilities are incompetent than expected. To be precise, to observe and meddle with the dimension in charge in the Demon Realm.
When you think about it, it made sense. If you are blocked by a thick barrier called the dimensional bulkhead, it would be strange.
“I will call Dorce-sama to the tower.”
the excuse.
“Just as he provided. I’ll give you a magic point, but it’s unfair, so you can say that you want to hear the story of that day in more detail.”
I want to see that cheeky demon dragon face again soon.
Jason regained his original smile.
