244. Coalition
disaster.
Other than that, no other words could express it.
Black light colored the world.
A huge fanaticism distorted the space.
The stars and the princesses hurriedly spread the distance.
A ray of destruction that ripped through everything struck the ice and Jason trapped in the ice.
The black light reflected off the ice flashed.
Everyone’s eyes turned black.
immediately after that.
─────────────!
A roar that shook the heavens and earth covered the battlefield.
One step later, an unresolved shock wave swept around.
Aww!
Sah, save me! what’s this!
hee hee hee-
The battle abruptly stopped. Not to kill each other, but to live.
The wizards built a shield, and the soldiers hid behind the walls. The knights surrounded the aurors to protect themselves, and the demons instinctively put their hands on the ground and survived.
But disaster was a disaster because it was unavoidable.
“···Oh My God.”
The knight standing on the half-broken wall opened his mouth at the horrifying sight.
The monsters did not have a defense mechanism called a shield or a wall. It was closer to the center of the explosion.
And the price was the Red Sea. It was a mountain of corpses.
The monsters in the rear, far from the fortress, were completely swept away, and the nearby monsters also lost their free will and stumbled as they threw themselves against the walls and trees.
It was hell.
After the storm passed, the survivors doubted their eyes.
But it was reality.
As the wind blew by, my spine stood still.
“…this is the Demon King.”
“How can a magic cannon be like this…”
“···Woman, the Demon King of Flames…!”
“If that falls on our country…”
“…this is crazy.”
Fear becomes fear.
Fear becomes despair.
And despair becomes magic.
The Tower of the Demon King, which had lost all its power, slowly began to rise again.
Humans were engulfed in fear, but no one noticed.
* * *
Ernap released the water drop.
A heavy silence enveloped the battlefield.
She looked at the people. It didn’t seem like everyone was seriously injured thanks to the rapid deployment of the shield.
“…it’s amazing.”
Ernyan caressed her trembling hands. My heart throbbed like it was being pierced by a needle.
– You used too much force. No more strain on your body.
“It wasn’t a head-on, it just blocked the aftermath of the shock.”
There were many excuses. She didn’t back away until the very end to hold Jason as much as possible.
The closest I got the most shock. And her shield covered all the stars beyond just herself.
But no matter how much it was, no matter how much packaging it was, in the end it was a shock wave.
she didn’t know
After the runaway Logger came down to Arain, all the magic he had gathered was wasted.
And there were so many that it could not be compared with the level gathered by demon kings of other dimensions.
– To be honest, I’m shocked too, but isn’t that what’s important right now?
“Right.”
Ernian’s gaze turned to the front.
The moment it met the magic cannon, all the ice melted. It evaporated and disappeared without any room for water vapor to be formed.
The sky was clear and I could see Jason well.
That was even more surprising.
Seeing Jason’s face. It’s that it’s still maintaining its shape despite being hit like that.
“Cool…!”
Jason vomited blood.
The appearance of his upper body nearly half blown away was more like a corpse, but he was clearly alive.
“This is absurd…!”
Suck up all the magic of the tower and then fire the magic cannon? I was hopeful when I heard the news that a magic cannon was attached, but I didn’t know that it would be possible to this extent.
No, I’d be happy if it was just that. Because it has the ultimate regenerative power obtained by killing dozens of demon kings with magic. If he did not die at once, he was confident that he would survive.
but this is something
“It’s dimensional interference…!”
How did you infuse dimensional interference into the magic cannon? Not to mention the magic cannon that works with magic!
puddle-
Jason grinded his teeth. His face was contorted like a ghoul.
“These damn bastards! What the hell did you do!”
Interfering forces on the same level as poison to the invaders were preventing regeneration. For the first time, the leeway was gone.
“You have now taken off your mask.”
“It’s fine. This is garbage.”
“Are you still alive with it? You are a monster, you are a monster.”
“You are finished now.”
“Did you even live like that?”
“Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you. Thank you for not fighting the Demon King who has a tower like that…”
“Shut up!”
Jason’s shouting and the shaking noise disappeared.
The warriors blocked their ears to the wave mixed with magic.
“Don’t be arrogant because you only ate one bite.”
A giant magic cannon? Dimensional interference in it?
admit it ate an accidental blow. He suffered a great shock and injury, and the dimensional interference prevented smooth regeneration and recovery.
but so what?
Even without half of the upper body, there was no problem in dealing with the insects in front of them.
It was a little cumbersome, more difficult, but not impossible.
After all, he wasn’t alone.
“Attack everyone!”
A hundred demons who followed him. Being caught up in the cannon fire, only half were left, but they were all advanced. As they were the closest people who followed Jason, there was no doubt about his power.
The demons ran away. Even if they survived, they were also injured. However, he did not hesitate to throw himself at Jason’s command.
A move that neglected their lives would be enough to stop them.
“Wait a moment. Just for a moment.”
You just have to take your time.
Until the interference is removed and the body fully recovers.
Jason, who had struggled to regain his composure, habitually tried to raise his one-eyed glasses. But the place was empty.
“···haha.”
he smiled self-consciously.
“How long have you been pushed into a corner like this? I’ll admit it. I must have underestimated you too much.”
but it’s ok
It was obviously a crisis, but they didn’t have a key sword. The demon king called Berge was in a state of deep sleep. so it’s ok can win.
I thought so.
– Good idea.
– There is the dignity of the Demon King, but subordinates fight with each other, and you have to stick with me.
– Isn’t it?
A voice that seemed to be coming out through a loudspeaker came from behind.
“In what gap?”
There was a sky tower flying in the sky. Hundreds of gun barrels aimed at Jason at once.
“No, wait a minute. Just that voice.”
──!
─!
Instead, an answer came back with a magic cannon.
Hundreds of shells were fired. A roar echoed through the silent battlefield.
“…it can’t be.”
No matter how injured he was, no matter how much interference was preventing him from regenerating, ordinary artillery fire didn’t do any effective damage to Jason.
But Jason couldn’t help but panic.
voice.
A hard voice that exudes confidence and arrogance.
I got tired of it.
He was not familiar with him, so he could identify who he was with just one word.
So it didn’t make sense.
how?
The reason the Demon Dragon sleeps is because the power it possesses exceeds the limits of its body. to fully accept it.
It varies greatly depending on the extent, but it can sleep from hundreds of years to as little as several tens of years. There was also a brief record of a few days in the history of the demon realm, but it was the story of the first demon king filled with all kinds of beliefs and worship.
A pavement to further establish the authority of the first demon king. Yep, that would be just about it.
why.
“Isn’t it?”
Jason denied reality.
“No. right?”
quiver-
The door to the tower opened.
“You don’t want it?”
“…Berze-sama.”
It really is you.
“Your expression is strange. Wasn’t it you who asked me to appear in front of you as soon as possible?”
“I didn’t know at the time that I would be in this situation.”
“Honest. Well, it just looks good. Logger, I’m glad I didn’t just blow my damn magi into the air.”
“How the hell did you wake up?”
“I had a nightmare.”
“nightmare?”
“Crazy dwarf squandered all my gold coins. When I woke up with a fever, I was actually blowing up all my magic.”
“Now say that…!”
“It doesn’t make sense. Because money and magi points are so precious! And does it matter? Finally, you and I met like this.”
Berger laughed. But Jason couldn’t laugh.
Berge spread his wings. moved forward Jason has gone that far.
“Why do you avoid it?”
“Could you give me a little, a little bit of leeway?”
“Why should I do that?”
“I also gave Berge-nim such an opportunity.”
“It’s just that you do what you want.”
“Do you think the Great Demon Dragon will not repay the favor he has received?”
“Would you like to touch my ethnicity?”
Berger tapped her thigh with her finger.
“good night.”
“It really is like a great demon dragon.”
“The obvious father is like that.”
Berge took out two chairs from the subspace. Jason walked slowly and sat down in front of him.
The battle between the Four Heavenly Kings, the stars and the higher ranks of demons also stopped at the unusual sight.
“Your bastard, he was splendidly running.”
“Didn’t you promise me? If you don’t keep the time, you’ll see the end.”
“But the situation has changed, so it’s really fun, isn’t it?”
“I will admit it. The blade that Berge-nim had prepared was sharper than I thought.”
“It’s a bit silly that I prepared it, but let’s just skip it.”
“What else does that mean?”
“I said let’s go.”
Berge put his hand into the subspace again. There was chocolate in the hand that came out.
“Are you going to eat?”
“Is it chocolate?”
“okay.”
“It’s done. It’s just that I don’t like it very much.”
“Doppelgangers have no appetite.”
misread-
Berger chewed the chocolate. The soft sweetness that wrapped around the tongue and the subtle scent of cacao were excellent.
“Also, I prefer just chocolate to almonds.”
“Can I ask you one thing?”
“do it.”
“Why are you waiting? Now would be the best opportunity for Berge-nim.”
“I’m the type of person who can’t live with debt.”
“I know it’s not such a trivial thing.”
The eyes of the two demon kings collided.
“For the same reason as you.”
“What if for the same reason as me?”
“I have the confidence to win no matter what you do.”
The corners of Berge’s lips rose.
“Mercy is the privilege of the strong.”
“Ha ha ha ha ha.”
─!─!─!─!─!
Jason applauded.
“I really can’t stand Berge’s confidence.”
“You don’t usually say you’ll regret it, don’t you?”
“Can’t I take back the time you gave me so I don’t regret it?”
“You are smart.”
“If it wasn’t for that, I wouldn’t have survived to this day.”
So time passed.
Berge was speechless, only misreading chocolate, and there was an awful silence. The war had completely stopped, and everyone’s attention was focused on the two demon kings.
Jason’s body was almost completely regenerated. His upper body was restored and his arms were double again.
“What the hell are you doing? You can just finish it.”
“Do I have to give it time to recover?”
The stars were questioning.
“··· That expression is the expression the Demon King makes when he wants to spoil someone.”
“Are you expressionless?”
“If you look closely, the corners of your mouth and the corners of your eyes are slightly raised.”
“yes. Up.”
“It is.”
“After you put on that kind of expression, you always do big things…”
Lavinia and Kaede nodded at Ernyl’s words.
“Where the hell did you go up?”
“…I don’t understand, but how do you know that?”
The stars were confused.
– Recognizing that? Also···!
The higher spirit’s eyes twinkled.
That was then.
“You waited long enough.”
Berge put the remaining chocolate package into the subspace.
“If I asked for a little more time, wouldn’t you do it?”
The exterior was relatively intact, but the interior was still a mess.
“Everyone here is looking at us. It’s not polite to take any more time…”
It was Jason who moved first.
The right arm that stretched out suddenly attacked Berge. The moment Berger slit his nails, Jason’s chest swelled.
It was the power of the dragon, breath.
Fuhaah-
A breath hit Berge. An explosion occurred. Jason squeezed in between them.
─!
Nails and nails collided.
“…Niji. Are you cowardly attacking me?”
“Because I’m not in a position to question this or that.”
One bump made Jason realize. equal number. The level of Berge who woke up completely caught up with him.
So I got more excited.
I was convinced that if I ate it, I could definitely break the wall.
“You have ripened it very lusciously.”
I was salivating.
The sad thing is that because of that damned magic cannon, my body is not in good shape. A brief recovery was literally just a moment of relaxation.
‘as soon as possible.’
I’ll finish it.
There was no need to go complicated. In order to pierce the scales of Berge, you need one of the sharpest weapons.
Jason wrapped magic around his body. I pulled everything out without thinking about the back.
─!
Dark red magic and black magic were mixed.
─!
Broken fragments were scattered.
─!
The space was distorted by the unresolved impact.
─!
Long blood lines were drawn on the scales of Berge.
─!
Jason’s skin cracked.
In a very short time, we exchanged dozens of workshops.
“Look, I can’t see it!”
“what’s this···?”
The soldiers were perplexed. With their crude skills, they couldn’t keep up with the two demon kings.
Countless voids were created in the empty void.
“···crazy.”
“The Demon King has become more handsome.”
“Is that the Demon King of Chlorination? Thank you, His Majesty the King. Thank you for forming an alliance.”
“Indeed, the dragon that wakes up is different.”
The Demon King, the Four Heavenly Kings, and even the stars could barely catch the movement.
so wait
– You’re slow.
“…it has slowed down.”
Ernya agreed to the spirit king’s words. The speed of the workshop has been slowed down. No, to be precise, only one person slowed down.
“…what the hell is this!”
Jason screamed.
“You, you are the Demon King!”
At first I thought it was an illusion. It was a very familiar energy, but he denied it. Anyway, isn’t it impossible for the Demon King to deal with dimensional interference?
However, as the interfering force slowly permeated his body, he could not deny it any longer.
Indeed, Berger was dealing with dimensional interference.
At his scream, the corners of Berger’s lips rose.
“Now do you understand?”
Why did I give you time.
Why did you say you didn’t have the confidence?
“I am a warrior.”
The Demon King declared.
“There’s no way a hero can’t be defeated by the Demon King.”
phhhhhh. A strange laugh rang out.
* * *
“No, that’s absurd…!”
The Demon King Becomes a Hero?
The Demon King was chosen by the dimension?
The invaders got the Guardian’s powers?
“No way!”
It was as absurd and nonsensical as a fire burning in water.
But this force was the interference force.
A fire was burning in the water.
“Magic fire is not quenched even under water.”
“It’s like that now!”
Jason screamed.
“How did you do it! Why did you become a hero!”
“To defeat you, the aggressor.”
“You’re an aggressor too!”
“Is that important?”
You are the Demon King and I am the Hero.
and the warrior.
“Kill the Demon King.”
A rough hand gripped Jason’s neck. It fell straight down.
Jason’s body hit the ground.
──────!
It made a roar and smashed the ground. Nevertheless, it fell endlessly and endlessly.
When the sky was invisible and pitch-black darkness engulfed everything, Berge stopped.
The pupils of the two demon kings rose from the darkness.
“···ha ha ha.”
Jason’s body was limp. He let out a sad laugh.
“Are you confused?”
“If it were you, wouldn’t it be you?”
“I will. I fully understand.”
The flames overflowed. The mixed interference ate away Jason’s magic and body.
Jason swallowed a groan at the power of the dimension.
“This is nonsense…! As long as you don’t reach the dimension!”
“Like you said, the dimension is crazy.”
Or was it that you got mad because you ran so wild?
“… ha ha ha ha ha ha!”
Jason laughed.
The sight of the man going crazy with his neck caught was bizarre at first glance.
nevertheless laughed. I laughed like crazy.
“… it cannot be played back.”
And put on the mask again.
“Anyway, the strength of the hero is the best for the Demon King.”
“You are the Demon King. Doesn’t this sound like the whole world is telling me to lose?”
Berge felt Jason loosened up. But he was not vigilant.
“Did you suddenly feel calm?”
“As long as it has come this far, I don’t think the outcome will change. Berge-nim suddenly went crazy and didn’t want to save me?”
phhhhh. Jason laughed.
“…I was supposed to follow Aina-sama’s words.”
“Are you? It’s not Aina Diaphrin, is it your lieutenant?”
“you’re right. Ina said: I don’t think it’s giving you too much leeway.”
“What did you say?”
“I said right.”
“Are you still waiting?”
“Because you were my only hope.”
150 years was a really long time even for demons who lived a long life.
In front of him, an elixir that could break through his old identity appeared.
“If you wait a little longer, it will be perfect, and even if it contains a little bit of poison, would you just eat it? Berge, what would you do?”
“I can’t stand it.”
poison? I’ll snot and wait for it to be perfect. 150 years is not short even for Demon Dragons.
“Right, that’s it. If there is a failure in me, it is that I trusted myself too much, and I was very desperate.”
Your narrowed field of view has made the mistake of not seeing your potential clearly.
“It’s really sad.”
“Do you regret it?”
“Regret? Of course I regret it. If only I had killed Berge-sama a little sooner. If only I had listened to Aina-sama. I still think about it many times.”
However.
“If I went back, I think I would have made the same choice.”
“why?”
“Because you are so strong right now. Because if I eat you, I’m sure I’ll break the wall!”
Jason shouted.
“Because if I didn’t get hit by that damn magic cannon, no matter how brave I am, I still have a chance to win!”
“Dreams are absurd.”
Berge stepped on Jason’s chest. He let out a painful moan.
“Well, anything like this is just an ugly excuse for a loser.”
It was sad.
His long time and all his plans to destroy the Demon Realm were all in vain.
If I had known that I was going to go in vain like this, I would not have put up with it and jumped at it once.
“You have two options.”
“two? Berge, are you sure you want to save me?”
“The first is to just die like this, and the second is to become a member of my family and die.”
“Heh heh, your options are unique. Is there something different about dying anyway?”
“The former will cause you to die and your tower will return to the Demon Realm.”
“Is the latter different?”
“different. I will merge your tower with mine.”
“no way···.”
Jason’s eyes widened.
“Did you combine all the towers of other demon lords? So, that’s why you couldn’t find it? So, was the power of the magic cannon that great?”
“then?”
“hahahahahahahaha! Really, really great! Berge! How the hell did you come up with that idea!”
“It’s a coincidence.”
“Accident···.”
You are making me even more miserable.
“In the end, thanks to that coincidence and luck, you overcame me.”
If I hadn’t known that towers could be merged by chance, if I hadn’t become a hero by accident.
Perhaps the one holding the neck and the one who was caught and fell would have been reversed.
“So if I choose the latter, does anything change?”
“I will become stronger.”
“Give me a tower for you when you die. Berge-nim is really shameless.”
“The dragon is like that. The scales are thick.”
“Certainly, it is. Dorce did the same. I was annoyed, so I asked him to figure out the subject, and he became obedient.”
“Dorce ate well thanks to him.”
“However, the balance of the transaction does not match. If you want a tower, don’t you have to spare even my life?”
“If you let me live, will you live as a family member?”
“Are you saying that you want me to become a member of the Demon Dragon’s family?”
The air became heavy. The shattered body could not completely hide its brutal murderous intent.
“I’d rather die than die, but I can’t do that.”
Because he killed the demon.
Because of the absurd accusation that it violated the law set by the first demon king, the ‘Demon Dragon’.
Doppelgangers were defined as rebels and eradicated.
His anger against the demon realm was his driving force, but the root of it was hatred for the demon dragon.
If the first demon king had not set such an absurd law, the doppelganger would have been a legitimate demon king.
“If you make one more offer like that, you might be perverted.”
“Can it be crooked?”
“So be patient. Because I don’t want to be ugly until the end. To be honest, I still want to change your face.”
“Yeah, I thought so.”
“Still, I’ll give you the tower.”
“why?”
“What kind of support can you give to a traitor in the Demon Realm? He said he would destroy the demon realm instead of me.”
If Berger absorbs all the towers, will the Demon World really stand still? not. Berge would know that too.
Even so, what you want is that you have a will.
‘At the point of absorbing another tower, there is no turning back.’
“Still, you can’t get nothing, so there are other conditions.”
“Tell me.”
“Please save my family. They are not guilty.”
“I went on a rampage to destroy the Demon Realm, but did my subordinates have affection?”
“If we’ve been together for hundreds of years, wouldn’t it happen to a degree that didn’t exist?”
nothing
“It seems that Berge-nim has become close with the human princesses in just a few years. How the hell did you make it into a family?”
“I have no reason to tell you.”
Berge pondered for a moment and then nodded.
“Nothing is unacceptable if they are not against me.”
“thank you.”
The imprint of the soul was engraved.
Berge grabs Jason’s neck and spreads his wings again. It climbed to the ground and flew straight toward the tower.
“… Ma, Demon King!”
Arrived at the Tower of Lies. The lieutenant, Aina, was astonished to see Jason coming with a broken limb and a grab on the neck.
“dare···!”
“Don’t do that.”
“However···!”
“For a short time, I became a member of Berge-nim’s family. Can’t you feel it?”
“…how could this be?”
“I should have listened to Aina-sama. I guess I gave too much time.”
“·················ogue.”
Aina didn’t say anything.
Berge climbed to the top and sat on the throne.
Jason sat down under it.
“Aina, when I die, serve Berge-sama.”
“If you become a member of the family, I will spare you…”
“Aina.”
His eyes went cold.
“I hope you don’t tell me to serve a demon dragon or something. For now, I’m just humiliating myself for the sake of a deal.”
“···However.”
“Have you not grown enough to become the Demon King’s lieutenant from a weakened, low-level demon? It is a pity to die in vain like this.”
“Aren’t you from a demon training school?”
“The lieutenants have also changed a lot while wearing the masks of other demon kings. Aina-sama was a low-level demon under one demon king.”
“You’re emotionally inappropriate.”
“I am not without feelings. Are you Ina? Can you answer me?”
“…is that a command?”
“Please.”
“I will follow you.”
Aina bowed her head.
“It is.”
Jason shrugged.
and.
The Tower of Lies has disappeared.
Wooduk-
The demon king’s neck was broken.
The dragon swallowed that heart.
