094. Male type Louise Werft
The tower absorbs all negative emotions, vitality, and blood in the realm and replaces it with magic points.
Even if it is not a realm, it is the same if there is a clear target and purpose of the Demon Lord.
However, human emotions are not always directed towards the Demon King and Demons.
Humans like to vomit out their anger and old feelings towards each other, not demons.
They use evil, swear, and put it into practice.
War.
To get more territory.
to get goods.
for honor.
They bite each other’s necks and stab each other’s hearts.
But those emotions and vitality are very empty. Humans cannot use them, so they lose their way and disappear in vain.
The successive demon kings felt sorry for it and built a portable tower. If you return to the tower and plant it, saying that you captured the emotion in the place where the negative emotions hit, so that the tower can absorb it again.
Berge planted simple towers everywhere. It is hidden deep in the ground and will not be revealed at all.
‘Pylerium Wars.’
The war was sparked by the discovery of a mine with a huge amount of mana stone in the Philerium Mountains, which serves as the natural border between the two countries.

Mana stones were an indispensable and valuable resource on the continent, and their greed for them did not discriminate between nationalities.This war happened even before the return. I almost forgot because there was no direct connection with Berger.
‘But it was originally two years later.’
It’s already about to happen.
That meant Jason had intervened. Maybe it was done under his plan from the beginning.
It wasn’t really important. I just love the huge amount of magic points that can be obtained from war.
“It’s done. It has been planted deep with spirits, so unless the Meteor falls and turns it all over, it won’t be noticed.”
Ernap wearing a mask rose like a shadow. After that, 10 elves were seated. There was also a dwarf next to him.
“Good work.”
“yes.”
Ernya smiled brightly.
“But what’s going on here?”
“Do you know where this is?”
“It’s the Philerium Mountains.”
“okay. There is a huge amount of mana stones buried underground here.”
“···yes?”
“Mana Stone…!”
Logger’s eyes twinkled.
“I don’t know the exact amount, but it must be quite a lot.”
“Then… it’s a big deal.”
Ernya immediately grasped the situation.
“The Empire and the Confederacy will collide.”
Natural mana stones were overwhelming in terms of purity and quality compared to artificial ones. It was important both as money and as strategic materials.
“This is nobody’s territory. So anyone can claim it is their territory.”
Philerium did not become a natural border between the two countries simply because of its ruggedness.
Because it was infested with monsters and nobody wanted to take it.
However, it was only a matter of time before he changed his attitude when he knew that a huge amount of mana stones were buried.
“They still don’t know that there is a manastone mine here.”
Of course, you’ll find out soon. Jason will spread it.
“And here we are.”
“then···?”
“okay. Do you know why I brought you guys?”
In general, mana stones are not very useful to the Demon King. Unlike elixir, it cannot be ingested, and there is no sage that can be used.
It would be a different story if they made money by selling them, but Jason and Berger, who value money in the first place, were unusual.
And even if it wasn’t for money, Berger needed a huge amount of mana stones.
“We rob them before they find them and go to war.”
“Loyalty! Unconditionally loyal!”
A dwarf, whose eyes had already turned, roared.
* * *
It was not easy to find mana stone mines buried underground in a wide mountain range full of monsters.
However, the monsters couldn’t attack because Berger was there.
If Ernya exists, the spirits are looking for mana.
It could have been easier than you thought.
“I found it.”
Ernya opened her eyes. The Earth Intermediate Spirit sitting above her head opened their eyes together.
It took exactly two days.
“…there are a lot of them. Is there no end?”
“So that’s it.”
“Oh oh···! Specifically, how much…”
“Well, first of all, the place where the mana stones were discovered is 20m underground. And even though I went down more than 30m below it, it is still full of mana stones.”
“The Demon King.”
“What is it, needlessly sullen?”
“What do you think of making a 10m caliber magic gun? A mana stone of that level would be enough power.”
“Aren’t you already Poe at that point?”
It’s just a crazy weapon that decides the continent.
“But isn’t it everyone’s dream to have a giant gun?”
“Think about that later. Now I have to mine mana stones.”
“Yes, of course! Break your bones, I will work!”
It was the elves who started working.
The earth spirits they summoned began to dig. After digging for a while, a huge hollow naturally created underground was revealed.
Groundwater was flowing in the middle of the cavity.
“You can feel the mana stones below. I think we should go mining from here.”
“Not bad.”
If not, I was worried about the possibility of getting attention when mining started on the ground, but there was no need for such an underground cavity.
“Fill the hole we came in. without a trace.”
“Yes.”
The sunlight that had been gently leaking in was completely blocked. The Logger drew a magic light from his subspace pocket, illuminating the darkness.
He installed an excavator, took out a pickaxe, and gave one to the elves.
“Where can I dig?”
The best mining technology is to use earth spirits, but the spirits could not exert their powers near mana stones, which have the property of absorbing the surrounding mana.
I had no choice but to dig it myself, and that was the reason why Berge brought all loggers and elves along.
Kwakwakwaquaqua-
Logger’s own excavator started digging with a loud roar.
“Oh, I can feel it.”
And when I started to feel the energy of the mana stones, I removed the excavator and carefully touched the ground with a pickaxe.
After groaning for a while, a brilliant purple ore soon appeared.
“Oh oh···! Clear and clean. That would be very high purity.”
That was the moment.
“Get down!”
Berger stood up.
Logger banged his head on the floor. Stone shavings went into his mouth. The excavator cracked and I felt the heat above my head.
quaang-
A small explosion occurred. The body of the dwarf, unable to withstand the shock, rolled to the floor. A spray hit the logger’s body.
When he gently opened his eyes, a barrier of water was protecting him.
Ernyl wearing a mask could see Berge’s back with her red hair fluttering.
“Who are you?”
Berger took one step forward. Red chloride flashed.
“Who are these guys?”
A growl voice returned from the cave connected to the cavity.
Kaka Kaka-
There was a sound of iron being dragged.
“Who dares to aim for mine?”
“yours?”
“It’s what you guys are trying to dig.”
A huge figure appeared. It was impressive to see the muscles that covered the body reaching 2m long and dragging a large sword as long as its height.
“It’s mine.”
the guy muttered
“Your? Does the ore buried in the ground have an owner?”
“Imja was the first to find it. And I found it first.”
“Evidence?”
“My memories are proof of that.”
The great sword was pointed.
“If you go away quietly, I will spare your life.”
The guy revealed to live.
* * *
Ernyl was built behind the Berge.
The elves pulled out their weapons from behind.
Berge recognized the opponent’s face.
Before his return, he was not very interested in humans. However, no matter how arrogant he was, he had no choice but to know only the symbolic ones among the warriors.
They were the ones who bumped into each other the most and climbed the most towers.
So did the man in front of me.
Like Jessica Horton, a hero, a star, and a member of the royal family.
Confederate Union. The first prince of the Barkat Kingdom who claims to be the leader of a coalition of dozens of small countries.
Pablo Barkat.
‘Why is this guy here?’
All the heroes who have risen to the stars are like this, but this one is strong. And the problem is that he is a prince.
Small country, but not small country.
The crown prince of a kingdom who claims to be the leader of the union.
He was the Confederacy’s spiritual support and de facto leader.
It’s not right to collide with him. Why am I here? Am I arrogantly claiming ownership of the mana stones?
‘I do not know.’
The reason was unknown.
At that time, Berge did not know exactly how the mana stone mine was exposed and the Empire and the Union waged a war.
How Jason sewed them together.
The important thing is that he was nothing more than a male Louise, and that he aimed his sword at Berge.
“Are you going to kill me?”
Ernya whispered quietly.
“…you mean you know who you are?”
“He is the Crown Prince of the Barkat Kingdom. I have a face.”
“But you want to kill me?”
“If there are no witnesses, there is no problem. If you kill murder, there are no witnesses.”
“Do you hate him?”
“I came to the kingdom as an envoy, but it wasn’t a particularly good memory.”
“Take it well so that the mask doesn’t fall out.”
“yes.”
“The same goes for elves.”
“yes.”
Fortunately, everyone, including Berge, was wearing a mask.
The status of Fail, who had turned into Phoenix’s mana, was also quite important now.
‘It won’t just pass.’
can’t get past Manastone mines are a very important strategic resource.
It goes without saying that Pablo himself moved with certainty. I could never get it back in a few words.
so.
‘Catch.’
Let’s knock it out and throw it away. If I don’t die, it’ll be fine
Fortunately, he was alone. If Berge was alone, there would have been a problem, but Ernyl was by his side.
Although not a hero, a princess who possesses talent comparable to, or more than that of a star.
“You must stun him.”
“Is it okay if I break an arm or two?”
“To that extent. However, your identity must not be revealed. There’s no need to come out of the stinky stuff that will be revealed later.”
“I can’t use the higher spirits.”
Elementalists were rare, and the spiritists who summoned higher spirits were even more precious. It was safe to say that the higher spirits were the identity of the spirit magician.
“Send a signal to the elves too.”
“yes.”
“What are you whispering!”
“If I give up and go, will you let me go?”
Berger took a step closer.
“Well, what should I do?”
Perhaps because of his obedience, Pablo murmured with a slight bluntness.
“If you send me, I will go.”
“no.”
The guy shook his head.
“We can’t just let those who know the mana stone veins go away.”
“then?”
“I will take care of you. just one month. Just stay quiet for a month.”
“You talk nonsense very seriously.”
“What?”
At the same time as Pablo’s counter-question, Berger gave strength to his legs. The distance had already been narrowed down enough.
Red flames fluttered like an explosion. It swallows everything and runs.
Pablo raised his sword.
“It’s a stupid choice.”
The flames split. The orange aura soared high. It cuts through the flame and stretches out in a straight line towards its owner’s chest.
Quarre-
The earth shook Pablo’s legs. The tip of the sword shook. slowed down
A scarlet flash of light narrowly cut Berger’s hair and disappeared. Just before being retrieved again, Berger grabbed the sword.
Gripping support-
Aurors and flames collided as if they were devouring each other. The palms were split. Berge clenched his teeth in dizzying pain.
For a moment, Pablo’s movements stopped. Arrows shot by the elves flew. Various spirit magics split the air.
An explosion occurred. Among the pitted earth, fragments of shattered stones, and a cloud of dust, he laid his sword.
“You’re doing something like that. Well, it’s strange to ask for courtesy from thieves who wear masks.”
It occupied the front of Ernap. They swung their fists as huge as the barbarians in the north.
Aww!
The wall of the earth that had been hurriedly shattered was broken. The two strong legs crushed the ice on the floor and shot the body forward once more.
The wind spirit lifted Ernyat’s body. Pablo followed.
The arrows of the elves could not catch the speed of the two.
The distance between the two grew rapidly. Auror revealed his ferocity.
blah-
Ernya’s body shook.
Berger threw the cold sword away from the Auror. Strengthen your legs and hit the ground. It runs in a straight line using the flame as its driving force.
quaw-
The fist of the beast was engulfed in flames before aiming at the princess once more.
“Where are you digging your eyes in front of me?”
He clenched his fists and stretched them out. He aimed at his chest, but hit the same fist.
The shock wave shook each other’s bodies. Broken auras and sparks splattered in all directions.
The joint was shaken, but the two did not hide their hostility towards each other. At the same time, he raised his fist.
once.
twice.
dozens of times.
fist and fist collide Aurors and flames gnaw at each other. vomit everything to destroy.
The shock wave shakes the cavity itself.
The elves screamed and spread the distance.
The princess intervened between the fierceness.
The blade made from the spirit of the wind was coated with flame and shot.
His gaze returned to the mixed craze. The gap allowed the Demon King’s fist.
quaw-
The prince’s body fell deep into the earth. However, there was no one in the dusty hole.
“This cheeky bitch…!”
A wounded beast rushed to bite the princess’ neck.
Living without filtration is ferocious. The runaway aurors are huge. The speed from well-trained muscles is overwhelming.
Ernap was not prepared. couldn’t run away
The sword that Berge threw away was returned to the owner’s hand.
The crude but huge sword met the Auror and was forged even more sharply. Aiming at the heart of the princess, it stretched out in a straight line.
Ernya took a breath.
The energy of death engulfed the surroundings. The Auror who tapped and pressed blocked the escape.
Berge was far and the elves were of no help.
So she chose it.
Bubbles-
drops of water dripped It blocked the gap between the sword and the princess, and between the auror and the chest.
────!
The cavity shook once more.
Pablo clenched his teeth. The body stopped at the huge counter-repulsion.
– This cheeky bastard dares to point his sword at anyone.
A translucent seal appeared behind the princess.
“Higher spirits?”
It was full of water drops. A stream of water wrapped around his body like a snake, and a barrier of water stood between the sword and Ernian.
“die!”
He gave strength to the sword that had broken through the wall, but had not fully advanced, and had stopped just before the woman’s chest.
The wall shook with a loud bang.
But that brief gap was enough time for the Demon King to arrive.
“You too die.”
quaang-
Completely defenseless, the back of the head was crushed. The prince, who fell forward, was buried deeper than before.
Berge stepped on his back dozens of times and handled it with certainty until the very end.
Then he approached the sitting princess.
“Are you okay?”
“···yes.”
Ernya let out a rough breath. The sword did not make direct contact with the chest. but it hurts At the same time, a stream of fresh blood ran down his lips.
“I don’t think so.”
“it’s okay. It just feels like your chest hurts and insects are eating your whole body? It was just a little overkill.”
The mana heart of the heart screams, the mana load is torn, it is overload. While dealing with a hero with a star’s name, there was no time to reconsider and do anything.
“Go back to the tower and eat an elixir.”
“Are you okay, Demon Lord?”
“At least not to the point of dying.”
Berge wiped the blood running down his lips.
It wasn’t enough to die. It was like that to confront the stars with unfamiliar mana.
If it wasn’t for Ernian and the elves, it would have been him, not Pablo, who is down now.
“That’s fortunate. But I summoned Nairuniel-sama. I’m sorry. I told you not to notice.”
“Okay. It’s better than dying you.”
“···yes?”
Ernya asked the question, but the Demon King did not listen.
“Tie this guy up.”
“I have a good one! The handcuffs that Fail-sama asked me to remodel the other day!”
“…not bad, but why are you carrying it around?”
“Didn’t you tell me to remodel Hillen-sama into something like garbage that can’t be redeemed? Isn’t this a good opportunity? Whether or not you can redeem the stars!”
“Then why are you carrying it?”
“I thought it would come in handy someday. So why not write it like this?”
Logger slyly smiled and handcuffed the fainted Pablo. The elves asked the spirit of the earth to bury everything except the head.
‘Good luck.’
Berge sighed in relief.
When the blade of the bastard reached just before Ernyl’s heart, my heart sank.
Ernya should never have died.
‘Cause she’s a princess Unless you know how Hilderan will come out in the future, unless you are going to end up with Hilderan unconditionally, Ernyan shouldn’t have died.
She could be a lifeline if you leave the car.
‘I was hurt, but fortunately it wasn’t serious.’
It would be better if you go to the tower and have a good rest.
‘then.’
Berge looked down at the prince with only his head visible. In a brief moment, he made a decision on how to treat him.

More effectively, it will be used as a chess piece to increase the board.I called Ernya.
“Are you really doing that?”
“Can you?”
“I’m not confident in acting, but I’ll give it a try.”
“okay.”
“But if you don’t do this, you have no choice but to fight, right?”
“Judgment in a cold state and judgment in an angry state are different.”
“Aha.”
At that moment, Pablo’s eyebrows trembled as if he was about to wake up.
“Are you awake, the Ant Prince of the South?”
“…the dog of the empire?”
