074. Friends
────!
The ax hit the floor.
Broken shards bounced in all directions. BattleX didn’t stop and turned around.
Vivian clenched her teeth. It was too close to avoid. He put on his magic and reached out and grabbed the axe.
The anticipation of digging into the skin was terrifying. But she pushed on.
supporter-
Louise’s body was pushed back.
‘Is this a princess…?’
Vivian was astonished at the power of the princess, which was stronger than expected, and the muscles of the princess that stood out.
‘Nonsense.’
The princess she knew was easy to play with. There was a young lady, and there was a princess with a bit of a bad temper. There were princesses who learned magic, and there were princesses who wanted to become knights.
However, all of them did not go beyond the scope of the princess.
Because it’s royalty.
Because she’s a princess.
Because it was more important to be seen as a princess than as a knight or as a wizard.
But Louise Werft was different. Her face was beautiful, but underneath her was a lump of muscle that was called Ugar Jori. It harbors a ferocious beast inside.
Vivian couldn’t help but doubt.
“Are you a princess?”
“Then am I a prince?”
Vivian bowed her head and gave more strength to the hand holding the blade.
It was then that I felt a creepy feeling behind my back.
‘Oops.’
Louise Werft was so shocked by the Dwarf that he had forgotten what was really important.
An escort warrior who did not have the confidence to win with his current self.
Gripping Jig-
Brain metastases hit the back. As he had pushed Louise, he fell forward.
Rolled dozens of laps with the princess. Around that time, the loud sound of a bell shook the entire palace.
‘You have to run away.’
The princess was no longer the problem.
Giving up was quicker and the decision was quicker.
The moment the hero rushed, he flew away. It was ugly, but the dignity of the Demon King was meaningless in front of his life.
ran towards the window. At that moment, a strong force pulled her away. He spit out a dagger in the excruciating pain.
“Where are you going?”
Louise Werft, who had missed the axe, had something else in her hand.
something black and elongated. The tail of a succubus, Vivian Blunt.
“…you two years old.”
“When you come in, you want, but when you leave, you don’t. If you want to go out, you should at least give up your neck, right? That’s courtesy, you bastard.”
perok-
The princess’ body shook at the kick that cohesives the magic. But she did not release the hand holding the tail.
“Let go.”
“Who do you like?”
“Aren’t you going to let it go?”
The fight was short, but the distance with the hero was shorter than that. Lightning struck. Vivian took a breath.
spatula-
A terrifying wind blew past my nose.
something was cut
What fell off was a black mass.
her tail.
cut off
“ah.”
An excruciating pain swept over me.
Tears welled up.
It is a symbol of beauty that has been nurtured and cherished.
The princess and the hero did not give the demon king time to contemplate.
The tail was just the beginning. The sword, which was bent at a right angle, flew in, aiming for her neck.
‘Both of you two years remembered your face. I remembered!’
All the magic that was interrupted by the interference force was released at once.
A huge counter-repulsion pushed everything away. The princess screamed and fell out. The warrior paused for a moment.
The brilliant Auror finally slashed the Magi and advanced, but Vivian was no longer there.
Only broken windows and empty, emptiness.
“tear···?”
The hero, Hillen Cargill, tilted his head at the drop of water falling on his face.
* * *
Demons have invaded.
When he first heard the report, the king ran out of the bedroom in the wind of his pajamas.
“Princess!”
However, there was a considerable distance between Louise’s annex and the king’s bedroom, and additional reports came up in the meantime.
The king tilted his head.
“So, does that mean that the demons tried to kidnap Louise, but Hillen Cargill stopped it?”
“I am not a demon, but a demon king.”
“Did you defeat the Demon King?”
“Yes that’s right.”
“how?”
The word came out of nowhere.
It’s been a thousand years since the demon king came down. All living things in Alain live together with the Demon King, Demons, and Demons.
In their lives, politics, diplomacy, and economy, the demons were no longer able to let go. Humans and other races, such as elves and dwarves, have changed a lot since then, but there is one thing that hasn’t changed for a long time.
You cannot stop the abduction of the Demon King.
No matter what defenses were put in place, the demon king’s abduction could not be stopped.
The reason was simple.
The former has always been the advantage between the kidnapper and the victim.
Because you don’t know when or where to kidnap.
Because it is impossible to defend against all the royal families that exist.
In addition, the demon king’s absolute hiding and escaping skills could only be compared with a great star, even among many talented people and warriors. Even that wasn’t perfect. If there is, only Daphner Philians.
However, the Daphner Philians could not keep all the royal family by their side and protect them.
For this reason, humans have decided to punish the demon king after the abduction rather than to prevent the demon king’s abduction itself.
It went on for hundreds of years, and something like an unwritten rule was created.
The Demon King keeps the kidnapped royal family well, returns them when appropriate, and never targets the heir to the throne.
As long as the demon lord does not cross the line, each country compromises in moderation.
It was an unwritten rule that was created in order not to die, and to minimize the tedious conflicts with the demon kings that constantly come down even if humans kill or kill them.
But did you prevent the kidnapping itself?
There was a big question, but that wasn’t the point right now.
“So Louise are you okay? Are you sure you’re not hurt?”
When the king arrived, the soldiers who were controlling the surroundings opened the way.
The king entered the princess’s room and looked inside.
There was no doubt about the broken ceiling and walls, and the remnants of the Magi that were left there.
The demons really came here.
The king’s eyes turned to his daughter.
“Louis! No injuries anywhere.”
“it’s okay.”
It wasn’t okay. Louise’s body was full of small wounds.
“Let’s get treatment from the court wizard right now. This noble demon, where is this child going to be beaten…”
“Thanks to Hero Hillen, we were able to stop it.”
“Healan Cargill?”
It was then that he realized that there were not only the princess but also the hero in the room.
“The hero has informed me of the invasion of the demons. This gave me time to prepare and was able to repel it. Unfortunately, I couldn’t kill him…”
Louise held out the tail of the succubus, which was flapping freshly.
“Is that the tail of a succubus?”
“Yes.”
“The Demon King of Lust?”
The Demon King had a tendency to rule over the same race as himself. It is not unconditional, but it was the most common to think that way.
“Demon king of lust, this madness is not enough to even touch Dormund, so let’s give it a try.”
There was life in the eyes of the king.
You dare to aim for Louise too. An unbearable anger rose.
But he soon repressed and approached Hillen Cargill. I didn’t like it, but thanks anyway, Louise wasn’t kidnapped, so I was grateful.
“On behalf of Werft, I thank you.”
“no. Of course, I just did what I had to do.”
“There is no case of saving the princess before she was kidnapped. You have made a very big ball. but···.”
I had one question.
“How did you know?”
“It was a coincidence.”
“Accident?”
“Yes. I couldn’t sleep at night, so while I was training in the dance room of the separate palace, I felt a magic.”
it could be. The demon king’s magic is secret, but Hillen Cargill is the hero who killed the two demon kings. His senses will be more sensitive to magic than anyone else.
It felt like something was planned, but there was no way the hero and the demon lord colluded to do this.
‘Or maybe Louise had a black heart and met while wandering around the private palace.’
The king shook his head. It’s just a simple suspicion. He couldn’t beat the hero who saved the princess who was almost kidnapped with that kind of thing.
“You are the kingdom’s, my daughter’s, my benefactor. Whatever you expect, we show you more. It’s good to look forward to it.”
“thank you.”
“Is there a way to say no at least once as a courtesy?”
“I heard that giving is polite to receive.”
“Yeah, that’s polite.”
The king chuckled and laughed.
Rumors that the Demon King of Lust tried to kidnap the 2nd Princess of Werft and failed began to spread throughout the continent very quickly.
* * *
“Successful.”
It was just one word, but it was enough to please Berge.
It wasn’t enough to stop Vivian, so they cut off her tail.
Thinking of Vivian running away after Kungji actually fell into laughter.
“Take your tail.”
For the succubus, the tail was an aesthetic sense and a second vessel for magic.
Compared to the heart, the additional feeling is strong, but the magic within it cannot be ignored.
“Yes.”
“Good work.”
“Of course, I just did what I had to do.”
“Yeah, thanks to you, you’ll have great fame again.”
“Isn’t it all thanks to the Demon King?”
“How was Vivian?”
“It was weak. To be honest, I think I could have killed him.”
It was because he had been greatly influenced by the power of interference shortly after he had descended. But Vivian wasn’t weak.
because it’s the devil
It’s just that Hillen got stronger. More than when I climbed Mount Erzest. More than when I killed Draxon.
The power of the two demon lords was evolving him one step further even at this moment.
“It’s good for Vivian to live and do more in the future.”
As soon as I arrived, I had an accident in Dormund and this time I touched Werft.
She was a good arrowhead by birth.
No matter what Berger does, his interest in her will not go anywhere else right now.
And I hoped to continue to do so.
Of course, that wasn’t the only reason.
‘No matter how many demon kings Arain killed, it was rare to die as soon as they arrived.’

Much less Vivian was an investigator sent by Archduke Alkyin to uncover the truth behind Drakson’s death.And if she dies, Alkyne will take another number. It was better for Vivian, who was easy to understand, to be alive than to be wary of the unexpected means.
“Then we will contact you again.”
“When returning to the guild headquarters, send Granada to the top of the Golden Moon separately.”
“Is it because of the elves?”
“okay.”
“Granada-sama is known externally as someone like my family. If you send him out suddenly, others may find it strange.”
“You have to figure it out.”
“You are like a Demon King. Yes, I understand.”

While checking the Magi Point and thinking about the day when the Balrog would be placed on the 2nd floor, another communicator signaled.
“The Demon King.”
It was Crouto.
“The monsters that the Demon Lord talked about have appeared, which I have never seen before.”
“I tried to avoid it, but three members of the tribe were hit.”
* * *
Crouto.
Former chieftain of the Scarlet Frost tribe, he is now the warchief who united the seven tribes.
There are hundreds of warriors alone, and if you include all the members, it will be over a thousand.
The tremendous growth that could not be compared with before was all thanks to the great Demon Lord.
Something that could not have been dreamed of in the past. Because of this, he was very loyal.
“If you see a strange monster, run away immediately without bumping into it. Then report to me.”
“i get it.”
“I obey the chieftain.”
He faithfully followed the orders of the Demon King.
Because they were so faithful to their instincts, they repeatedly threatened and exhorted them over and over again, injecting commands into their minds.
“Ogre. not.”
“weird.”
“Chief, it’s a monster.”
Thanks to this, the orcs did not fight even when they saw an ogre with an unusually large arm.
‘What is that?’
Huge nails with black appearance. The things that made up the ogre’s arms were like demons. Ominousness crossed Cruthu’s mind.
“Quietly retreat.”
“Follow.”
Fortunately, he didn’t find them. After a little distance, Croutu took out a communication port and injected magic into it.
That moment. Croutu’s whole body stood upright.
He slowly turned his head. it was a dog A strange beast, closer to a monster than a dog.
They sniffled and looked at Croutou.
in which gap?
‘These guys aren’t monsters that live in the mountains either.’
It must have something to do with that strange monster.
Instinctively, he swung his blade. The dogs moved quickly, but the Croutu and Orcs were quicker.
gae-gaeng-
Dogs became corpses. But it was too late. A strong gaze was felt.
‘Heard it.’
Alas, the new monster flew into the sky.
The orcs showed their jealousy to live in the dark.
“Fight!”
“kill!”
“no!”
Croutu’s cry became an empty scream and disappeared. The decapitated orc rolled around in the cold snow.
Another orc, angered by the death of his kin, swung his blade.
spatula-
The demon-like arm was cut off. At the same time, another fist popped the orc’s head.
two in an instant. The orcs were furious, and Croutu rushed in.
He ripped out his magic and cut his body apart. In the process, one more orc lost its life.
The report had to follow after the incident was over.
“···sorry. mama king. The order was not followed.”
“Does not matter. I was telling you to avoid it if you can, because I didn’t mean to just let you go after you lost your life.”
『Collect the corpses of your people and bring the body of the Chimera.』
“Yes.”
Fortunately, the Demon King was not angry. Croutu sighed in relief at the fact.
“… Demons?”
“··········!”
But I couldn’t do that because of the voice that pierced my ears.
He slowly turned his head. An unknown woman was staring blankly at him.
“···human?”
“Are you, the Demon King’s subordinate?”
Bright eyes that did not match the situation gleamed. If Croutu’s thinking wasn’t wrong, it was curiosity.
A human being is showing curiosity in front of him.
I had to sneer and kill him for being a cheeky bitch. He looked so weak that he couldn’t stop it if he immediately swung his sword.
But Croutu was not willing to move. It felt like something was stuck in my throat.
“under.”
he asked
“What are you hiding?”
“···Oak. Are you good at talking?”
There is no malice in the word cut off.
“This.”
“my friend.”
Kugugugugu-
The earth shook. peak is lost
A huge shadow covered Croutu.
