Episode 179
“••• Also, you made a secret base?”
“No, it’s not a secret base, it’s just hiding places in the city.”
“Isn’t that what it is?”
Heisel burst into laughter at her pathetic response. She also knew her own hobbies.
To be precise, it could be said that it was a hobby that was created because of her.
After secretly exploring the city with her in the past, Heisel liked to explore the city that had changed because of him. On one occasion she left her job and she took over her own job.
“It’s because you don’t have anything to do here.”
“•••It wasn’t too bad back then.”
“At that time… yes, it was.”
before being enslaved to the bridle.
As Hygel’s complexion darkened slightly, she spoke hurriedly.
“After that, it wasn’t too bad. Being alone in the Demon King Castle, I felt like I became the Demon King… But I still felt like a princess who came to visit from time to time and was trapped in the castle…”
As Heisel’s expression darkened as she spoke, she quickly looked around. Then she found one of the street vendors, and she got angry, and she quickly left.
“Are you thirsty? I’ll buy you something to drink!”
As she disappeared, Heisel relaxed her expression as if she had ever been.
Being with her would naturally relieve tension.
Guilt for Lilith remains.
No, not only for her, but for all demons.
But he was not weak enough to be immersed in those feelings.
‘•••Is that right?’
After reincarnation, he was born as a human body and wanted to live freely. He saw the changed world and lived as a puppet.
I decided to do everything I wanted to do with my life.
Fortunately, the world was different from the one he had remembered, but it went on and on.
The airships that filled the sky, plants with magical effects, machines that shoot iron balls, and magic circles engraved everywhere are no longer there.
But man could live without it.
Just as he can live as a human named Hygel Kailus, not as the Demon King Hygel.
However, after hearing about the gate from Julius, he knew that he still had no choice but to get entangled with the demons.
That is why I no longer have any hesitation about Magi, and when I do things, I think of demons more than humans… .
‘If you finish this job safely.’
As long as the rest of the demons were informed about the portal, he thought he had done his job.
How long can you not take care of them?
No matter how much they call themselves the Demon King and give their allegiance, the person they are today is the human Hygel Kailus.
But when a variable occurs… .
Even thinking about what he couldn’t tell Lilith for a moment, he jumped up.
“•••This wave, space, dimension?”
are they demons?
No, the portal he had prepared had to be there for a few more days.
‘What happened.’
You must leave right now. There’s no reason to go into this fuss anyway, so we’ll just have to hide until Julius solves it.
The moment he was about to move, the space echoed from the other direction.
The surrounding space began to shatter like shards of glass.
Seeing the waves emanating from the strong forces that appeared from the edge of the city and the space beginning to break, Heisel slammed the ground.
‘right now.,
You have to take Lilith.
Realizing that she too had a problem, she could be seen running towards her.
However, Hazel’s complexion looking at her changed abruptly.
he speeded up
As if Lilith had noticed his strangeness, he looked back.
Gripping Jig-
Her eyes changed drastically.
The space shattered, and her body was sucked into the broken place, and then disappeared.
“Damn it!”
Heizel spat out a swear word, and he headed there.
He too jumped into the hole where she disappeared.
The surrounding space began to tangle.
Behind him, a white cloud followed Heisel’s trail.
“Hey, what’s happening all of a sudden?”
“••• Save me!”
“What is this all of a sudden…”
The shouts of those who realized the situation late resounded all around.
Allen grasped the situation from the broken space like glass, the people being sucked into it, and the two pulsations.
‘Broken mirror space.’
It was a phenomenon that he knew because he had studied space-based magic in depth.
It occurs when space magic and space magic collide, and it happens between wizards who study space magic.
Research was active before the old circle system magic was systematized, but after the establishment of circle magic, the number of space wizards decreased, so few people knew about this phenomenon.
‘Usually, after a while, the broken space will be restored automatically… .,
How the hell did this happen because of how big of a magic hit?
As I spit out a thread and traced the traces around me, I felt the surface of the space that seemed to be about to break at any moment.
‘Who is it?’
Is this also Estodor’s work?
“••• Broken mirror phenomenon?”
Allen woke up to the sound of a voice next to him.
“You know.”
“••• Because I have a hobby of reading old documents.”
Allen nodded, remembering that she had read an old gore in the ruins.
“•••The best thing is to be still.”
Her gaze turned to the space where debris was dropped like a broken mirror, people disappearing, and the twisted city scene through the broken space.
“It would be ridiculous to stand still in a phenomenon of this size.”
“It seems like we can’t avoid it anyway.”
If all sides of a space are smashed, the surrounding space becomes entangled.
You can go to the dormitory and get to the square out of the blue, or you can try to get out of the city and come to the inside of the academy.
This was such a space.
To solve this phenomenon… .
If you go with him, a solution will appear.
“Follow me. I’ve mastered the spatial system, so I’ll be better than anyone else.”
“•••yea, I got it.”
Shortly after they moved, an explosion erupted from one of the surrounding spaces.
It was clear that the strong people felt the surrounding space crumble.
Allen thought about going there, but turned away. In case we meet by chance, joining with others was our priority now.
‘The academy is also being helpless, but it won’t.’
Allen ran through the space with a thread.
“I’ve never seen people like you…”
In front of Gaion, three figures wearing robes were seen.
Ga-on went to the people in front of him as soon as they had a strong presence.
The space shook in the middle, trying to send him somewhere else, but he was the king of the beasts. One of the strongest among the three fingers.
It wasn’t difficult to resist, although it couldn’t be completely ignored.
“Are you from Estodor?”
He smiled wildly and looked at them.
A little weaker than you… , by analogy, strong people that can be seen as close to the eight-class class.
I know that there are strong people on the continent that can be compared to the Eight Rivers, and I also know that there are people who do not show their appearance on purpose.
However, the people in front of him were people Gaon had never seen in his life.
‘•••But one is a bit familiar.’
Familiar but not used to it
After a moment of frowned upon by such a strange sensation, the person he cared about opened his mouth.
“To see such a strong man among the beast people… it’s a ramp.”
“Do you know me?”
“Can you not know the Eight-strong Beast King?”
“If you’re confident, take off your robe so you can see your face. Or…”
It doesn’t matter if I take it off.
As Gaion raised his sword, a dark red aura formed and emitted a ferocious light.
Whoever they are, as long as they enter the academy, you must kill them according to the promise you made with the president. There’s no way anyone with this skill can fight except for the Eight Rivers.
‘••Is it possible to be a disciple?’
If you were by my side, I would have done it.
He savored his taste buds, thinking of a disciple who doesn’t even come to visit these days.
“Uhhh… No, it’s funny that a strong person like this came out of our prey.”
“•••food.”
Gaion’s face hardened as if he had remembered anything.
“Isn’t that right? Since the last time was 20 years ago, there are some strong people like this.”
“No, wasn’t that guy still there? It’s confusing when you’re asleep.”
“Oh, Lord Raven. What do you think? Then, when one of Jinjo went out to meet him in person.”
In the darkness of the dark robe, blood-red eyes turned to Gaion.
“Didn’t you go with me to clean up that guy’s tribe?
“•••ah.”
Gaion’s momentum exploded like crazy.
He found the cause of familiarity. The mosquito cubs he had been looking for all his life. The existence who annihilated the tribe while out for a while, and the reason that made him accept the proposal of the Galshudin Academy.
vampires.
Unlike before, he asked without a smile.
His yellow pupil turned cool as if he had found the prey he was pursuing.
“Shadow Islands, is it right from there?”
“I know that the beast knows us. He is also the smartest among domestic animals….”
Belduk. The head of the vampire who was provoking was smashed. He looked at the scattered vision and corrected the evaluation of the Beast King.
‘The force is at least one step above what is known to the public.’
His body turned into a mist of blood and he quickly left. By the time he changed his condition again, his head had already been regenerated.
Through the stripped robes, a man with red hair, luxurious clothes and red eyes could be seen.
If you didn’t know, the outfit that only looked like a noble master.
“Sir Raven. You seem one step stronger than the corpses tell you.”
“••• Ttt, I have no choice but to get a separate price from them later. Anyway, there is nothing I can’t do.”
“That’s right. Since I asked for two corpses of the Eight Rivers…”
kill it first
Three flashes of blood attacked him.
Gaion kicked the ground without the usual laughter.
“Once I get rid of you, I’ll figure out a way to get there.”
The battle of the four eight-class men began.
Lilith saw Heisel’s expression and immediately tried to cross the space again.
But she looked back, but the passage through which she had escaped was gone.
However, you never know where you will be heading if you move blindly.
She sighed and stopped.
It’s not that he doesn’t know how he feels.
The expression he made when I first met him, she couldn’t forget. This time, he shouldn’t be swayed by himself.
‘A king must have no weakness,
If Heisel had problems because of her, she was ready to lay down her life without hesitation.
‘Heisel still needs me.’
It will be fine for a while.
It is only to help stabilize his condition in the human world and make sure that he lacks nothing.
‘Really, that’s all?’
She captured the private feelings that were blooming.
For now, the priority is to find Heisel-sama.
The moment she looked around.
A long blade was pushed into the left chest.
“ah…?”
She lowered her head and pondered for a moment what the sword that pierced through her chest meant.
‘I… .”
die?
As I turned my head to the unrealistic sight, I saw hair with dark blue hair. And a small whisper reached her ear.
“This is unavoidable. It’s not because I want to do it, it’s all for Heisel…”
Her consciousness gradually darkened and the sound faded away. Her whole body felt weak, and the pools of blood that flowed out of her were warm.
“••• Reinhardt?”
As he uttered a single word, he saw him twitch.
Then, suddenly, the blade was sharpened again.
There was no hesitation in the hand that was stabbed in succession, and there was no mercy at all. His hand didn’t stop, as if scared by her words.
I heard footsteps rushing away as my body collapsed into pools of blood.
Lilith blankly moved her hand between the distant consciousness, and it seemed that dark hair could be seen from afar.
her breath stopped.
