Episode 69.
The situation that unfolded next came to me a little regretful.
It was after Cassias’ father died.
Cassias was sitting where his father’s body was laid.
“It seems like quite a bit of time has passed, but a part of my heart isn’t getting any better.”
Cassias’s feelings were felt in me too.
vanity. and regret.
That feeling I also felt.
‘I felt this way when my father passed away.’
When my father passed away before the return, I had regrets.
After losing all my family, I realized.
That they didn’t discriminate against me because I was raised.
“I’m sorry I couldn’t be a proud son to you in my lifetime.”
Memories of Cassias came flooding back to me.
limit.
Cassias was the type of person who hated work and only liked to play.
It was only after Cassias’ father died that Cassias came to his senses.
‘I wonder if I did too…’
I recalled my actions before the regression.
In the race for the successor, he survived alone due to Sister Millia’s trick.
I didn’t do anything.
All I did was listen to the heir class with one ear and let it flow through the other.
Then my father passed away.
‘I must have been an ugly son too.’
Someone approached Cassias.
The person Cassias saw was the person I had seen.
‘Alterny.’
It was definitely the leader of the Golden Knights who had been talking with Cassias.
He looked older than before.
“Alterny…”
“My lord… it is late. You must return now.”
Cassias became the head of the Raike family.
Unlike now, he has decided on a successor.
“Alterni, why did I become the head of the household?”
“It is only natural.”
“I have a good hyung too.”
“Kast-nim doesn’t have the ability.”
The most important factor for the nobility here was ability.
The ability to show off without spending mana.

Now, through the succession competition, the superior child becomes the head of the family.
“What did my father think of me?”
I couldn’t see Cassias’ expression, but I guessed his expression.
It must have been an expression that looked infinitely gloomy and dark.
“…”
Alterney said nothing.
The past of Cassias came to me more and more.
Alterny knows it, and Cassias knows it.
Cassias’ father was disapproving of Cassias’ behavior.
But I gave her love because she was a child.
“I should have been a proud child.”
“It doesn’t matter even now.”
“My father is already dead.”
“You will be watching from the sky.”
At Alterny’s words, Cassias looked up at the sky.
Unlike Cassias’ mood, the clear sky.
“The head of the household… and a letter has arrived from the imperial family.”
“Correspondence…?”
Cassias looked at Alterny as if wondering.
“A letter from the imperial family… is there anything like that coming?”
And the memory of the current situation came to me.
Currently, there is only one country that exists on the continent.
Empire.
A single empire had unified the continent.
That’s why there was no need to receive letters from the imperial family.
“It’s probably not a summons.”
There is nothing to fight against.
“There’s no way I’m invited to the royal family’s party.”
The imperial family has their own league.
He wouldn’t be interested in Cassias on the periphery.
“Besides, the birth date was also far away.”
The day of offering gifts to the imperial family was still far away.
What the hell is it for?
Cassias opened the letter.
It seems to me that it is written in ancient letters.
But I got the meaning.
‘I guess that’s why I went to the Demon World.’
The letter said that a new war would begin.
And it was written that all nobles were obliged to participate in this war.
“Now you’re trying to fight a legendary being.”
A new memory came to me.
It was different from my time.
In my time, demons exist in legends, but we know that they actually exist.
But this era was different.
just a legend.
It was a legend that could not be confirmed.
“The imperial family is going crazy because of the long peace.”
“My lord…don’t say such things. There is a strange atmosphere on the continent these days. You can use the stigma of being a traitor for nothing.”
Cassias looked at Alterny intently.
“By the way, Alterny has changed a lot too.”
“I haven’t changed much.”
“No, it has changed. In the past, you treated me easily.”
“Well, isn’t Cassias the head of a family now? We must follow the example.”
Cassias woke up.
“I have to go.”
“what···?”
“What the hell is the crazy royal family trying to say?”
And time began to pass quickly.
***
The Emperor climbed onto the podium.
old emperor.
To Cassias, he still seemed like an old man who was still trying to hold on to power.
“Everyone has gathered.”
The voice of a powerless emperor.
It seems that it was different before.
“First of all, say something. They would see me as crazy. Invading the Demon Realm where demons from legends live. Look over there!”
The emperor pointed to one place.
Cassias’ gaze also shifted.
And I immediately realized what the Emperor was pointing at.
‘Is that a summoning magic circle?’
But it was slightly different.
That is…
“Finally, we developed it. A magic circle that goes to the demon realm. Now, I will unify not only the continent, but also the Pandemonium!”
The magic circle began to emit a magnificent light.
And a huge hole appeared.
Inside that hole was the Demon Realm.
‘I can feel an ominous aura through Cassias…’
The demon world was certain.
“Our goal is right there.”
And immediately the entrance to the demon world was closed.
Cassias muttered lowly.
“It was true…”
Cassias also realized at once that this place was the Pandemonium.
yep, it was natural
Mana and other Magi.
Because the ominous energy kept coming over from there.
“The departure date is tomorrow. Enjoy your final rest.”
Cassias looked around.
countless people.
It seemed that most people were perplexed.
‘Yes, because most people thought it was a lie.’
The Emperor left, and the remaining ones were assigned to their affiliations.
“Assault group…”
Cassias’ ability is telekinesis.
It was useful in attack, so it became a assault group.
Cassias suddenly looked up at the sky.
slightly cloudy weather.
“Dad doesn’t want me to go…”
However, in Cassias’ heart, he felt a firm resolve.
“Father… I am leaving to become a proud son.”
***
On the day of the demon world launch, some people tried to escape.
But they were not forgiven by the emperor.
A beheading without forgiveness.
For those who were soaked in peace, it was close to fear.
“Let’s say the name over there.”
The person next to Cassias spoke to him.
Cassias ignored it.
“My name is Modian Kassadia.”
Cassias gave Modian a sidelong glance.
He was a humble-looking person.
“How come you have so many experiences? Seeing you so calm No, can’t it?”
He was a man of many words.
His mouth did not rest until he passed on to the demon realm.
And the moment he passed into the demon realm, his mouth finally stopped.
“What is this… what…”
It was so full of demonic energy that it was difficult to breathe.
Many people started to vomit.
Cassias also tried to get nauseous, but held back.
‘Is this a place called the Demon World…?’
It was barren land.
I’m sure I’ve crossed over to the Demon Realm, but not to the point where I’m sick of it.
‘Is that so… is it only the outside?’
The place where I was was inside what was thought to be the lair of Kubu, the demon of books.
It wouldn’t be easy for the devil to live in a place like this.
The Commander-in-Chief of the Pandemonium Expedition, standing in the forefront, shouted.
“Everybody wake up!”
Then came an urgent cry.
“An enemy is coming!”
At that, the commander-in-chief drew out his sword and said.
“Everyone get ready for battle!”
Time passed quickly again.
***
Time passed quickly, but all memories were stored in me.
He continued to advance without a destination.
A lot of people died.
The talkative Modian is also dead.
The commander-in-chief also died.
The previous deputy commander was appointed as the next commander-in-chief.
“…”
Cassias’ heart was close to despair.
There were many fights.
Among the enemies were witches and demons.
The demons I met in real life made me feel that the legend had shrunk.
it was strong
Half the troops are dead when the demon first appears.
“Still, it’s fortunate that supplies continue to come.”
Additional troops and supplies continued to arrive.
But, of course, Cassias was also asserting it.
This campaign will end in defeat.
A man approached Cassias who had such an idea.
“Hey, the commander-in-chief is calling.”
“All right.”
Cassias went to see the commander-in-chief.
And I was put at a crossroads of choice.
said the commander-in-chief.
“If we go on like this, it will be a defeat without any results.”
“…”
Cassias also thought so, so he didn’t say anything.
“So, I decided to run an advance team. And I intend to put you in the captain’s seat.”
“Why me?”
“Because I am strong.”
Cassias continued to grow stronger.
However, like everyone else, Cassias became more and more eccentric as his mind was devastated by demonia.
That’s why Cassias thought.
He said he couldn’t sit in the captain’s seat.
“I am gradually becoming less of myself. It must be because of the mana here.”
“What does that matter?”
“It is getting more and more violent. If I have subordinates, my violence may be directed against them.”
Cassias was certain of one thing.
All the people who came here and are getting stronger are going crazy.
“Don’t worry about that. I have a present for you if you assume the position of captain.”
“What is it?”
“A tool that suits you… no, you could say it’s a weapon.”
Cassias was troubled.
Whether or not to take over as the captain of the advance party.
However, the choice was made at once by the commander-in-chief’s subsequent words.
“If you faithfully carry out your duties, I will discharge you.”
To Cassias, who did not want to be here any longer, the words were like rain during a drought.
“I’ll do it.”
“Good choice. And soon I will send you a present.”
Afterwards, a gift arrived from the commander-in-chief to Cassias.
The gift was thread.
A letter was enclosed with the gift.
“A thread with holy energy…?”
Cassias held the thread.
My mind became more and more calm.
“That’s a good thing.”
Cassias replaced the thread on the exorcism sword.
I couldn’t help but be surprised by that fact.
Until now, the exorcist sword thread was just an ordinary, hard thread.
But with that, Cassias defeated countless enemies.
‘I can’t believe it at all.’
This thread will make Cassias stronger.
Cassias now began taking orders directly from the commander-in-chief.
It was usually a reconnaissance mission.
The next task was the detached unit.
In this way, Cassias gradually began to grow into the fight in the demon realm.
***
Right after Suhar left for Pandemonium, Ephinia also tried to follow.
Amis caught and stopped Ephinia.
“No!”
“Suhar went there for me. But am I just asking you to watch? I can’t!”
“You trust him. He is strong.”
Amis did her best to appease Ephinia, but Ephinia’s excitement did not subside.
“No more delay! We must go quickly!”
Right after Suhar fell, the magic beast did not come out.
But suddenly, the demons started popping out again.
“no way···!”
Epinia knelt down.
And then Pastar appeared.
“Princess, I will stop the witchcraft.”
Pastard began to block the Demon Beast from the Demon Realm.
