301 – Demon Knight (4)
“Is this thing alive?”
After Rex’s roar ended, Chester and the others looked at the demon knight whose head had disappeared and only his torso remained.
“Well. “It’s been moving continuously for about an hour.”
“It seems like I have less strength than when I had brains.”
Lorwan poked the demon knight with a stick. However, the demon knight could not even untie the ropes that bound his body and was only shaking.
It seemed like he was trying to keep exerting his strength, but he was using his strength in the wrong way, and on top of that, he seemed to be unable to control his armor, so all the armor he was wearing was ripped off his body.
“The head is not necessary for life, but it seems to be an important organ.”
“Shall we split the stomach? If there’s no weak point in the head, wouldn’t it be in the body? “I think it would be more convenient to know your weaknesses in advance.”
Everyone nodded at Lorwan’s words. Chester took out a knife and brought it to the demon knight’s body.
“Hmm. Just cut it in the middle…….”
“Just in case, why don’t we cut off all the limbs first?”
“Is that so?”
“Leave the speaking part to me. “I am familiar with dismantling words and know their internal structure in detail.”
“It’s reliable.”
Three people begin to dismantle the devil’s body while talking about Doran Do.
“Rex! What’s this! “You’re really hurt.”

“It’s okay, Mom. “It doesn’t hurt that much.”
“Mom’s not okay!”
Then, Monia breaks the grace at the top again and heals Rex, who was cut by protrusions all over his body, starting from his hands.
Paul quietly watched the scene and stroked the head of Ant, who was nearby, as if protecting him. Maybe it was because I remembered playing with a neighborhood dog a long time ago, but I felt a little at ease.
“That terrifying devil, like that…” ….”
While watching the demon knight being dismantled, I see Rex. Rex looked at Paul as if asking what he was looking at.
Rex, he literally meant, ‘Why are you looking at me?’, But Paul, who had seen Rex’s majesty with his own eyes, could not accept it so simply.
“I’m sorry.”
Rex looked strangely at Paul, who unconsciously lowered his head and apologized.
Monia understood Paul’s feelings and treated him with a smile.
“It’s okay. “By the way, are you feeling okay?”
“Yes, yes. “Well, I didn’t even fight.”
“No. “You haven’t been able to eat properly since you were concentrating on preparing to deal with the devil.”
“Well, did you enjoy your meal?”
I ate a lot. It might not seem like a big deal to Chester and his group, but for Paul, who was treated well by them for a few days, those few days were like heaven.
It is not the case that there is no hunger. Surprisingly, Paul has been eating a lot over the past few days! Be full!
Oh my god, Paul didn’t know how long it had been since he felt full.
My back is warm, my stomach is full, I don’t have to go to the battlefield every day and be in an environment full of swords and corpses, and I can sleep peacefully without worrying about when the enemy will come…….
Paul was really happy.
He even thought that when he left this forest later, he would go around telling tales like a bard, making up stories about the benevolent yet strong fairy warriors.
“Is this a weakness?”
“I can’t see anything like a heart. Didn’t you say it’s in your left chest? Rather, there is no need to look at things like the internal structure of the human body.”
“I’ve seen a lot of people with their intestines spilling out. “Umm.”
The three men who cut open the demon knight’s stomach realized that they were ignorant of the inside of the human body. That’s because, unless you’re a scholar, there’s no reason to go into detail about the inside of the human body.
All you need to know about the human body is that if you stab it anywhere, it will easily die.
“Let me see what I said.”
Since he was not sure about the human body parts, he decided to look at the horse parts. Chester left the dissection of the horse parts to Urgo and then turned his attention to other things.
It was a fragment of the demon knight’s armor.
“Hmm.”
Chester picked up a piece of armor slightly shorter than his forearm and examined it.
“Why?”
“I thought I could use it as a knife.”
“Hmm. Should I put it on the tip of my spear too?”
Lorwan was also interested. The two crouched down and started picking up pieces of armor that they thought might be useful.
“But it’s a little disappointing.”
“What?”
“That Anubis, what is it, the light flashes! “I wanted to see it done.”
“I wanted to try it too. “Although Rex finished it before that.”
“There’s nothing I can do because I can’t stop it.”
While they were talking, Urgo, who had finished the dissection, came to visit the two.
“There’s nothing unusual about the horse’s body.”
“What? …… “Then where do I have to stab it to die?”
“Is it real?”
“It’s real.”
Urgo showed the horse body that he had dissected. Both the horse’s body and the human body continued to move even though their internal organs were exposed.
“No, why aren’t you dead?”
“Isn’t it a living thing?”
“Then there’s no reason to have a body like a living thing, right?”
“Hmm. “You said you created demons based on these creatures?”
“It was created using humans and horses?”
“Hmm. “Isn’t that what it is?”
It is not a normal creature, but there is no death like a normal creature. Chester nodded his head in understanding words.
“Then, I guess I’ll just have to bury this and deal with it first.”
“Huh? “Are you asking?”
“Yes. Just in case, let’s cut it into pieces and bury it.”
“Okay.”

After dealing with the demon knight, the party stayed in the forest again until Rex and Senna recovered.
While they were spending time in the forest, Raynald, who had nested in the Duke family’s secret warehouse, was shocked to hear news from the devil.
“One of the knights fell?”
– Yes.
At first, he was a quiet devil, but as his activity time increased, his speech became more fluent and his emotional expressions became more natural.
In the past, he would just stand still, but now he would sit down and read novels and talk to Raynald.
“Are you saying he’s dead?”
– As you know, I have no biological activity called death.
“Hmm. Yes. A knight who never stops or dies until the crisis in the kingdom is over. “Because that’s you.”
Raynald answered and pulled his bowstring. And he let go.
The arrow missed where Raynald had aimed and fell to the ground.
‘You’re talented even when you can’t shoot like that.’
The devil analyzed the signal sent by his alter ego, wondering how a person could be so bad at using a bow.
– This is awesome.
“What do you mean?”
– It’s not like I just knocked him down. You didn’t even use a cannon. This is my first time doing something like this. Hmm. Fun.
“What is that? Speak, devil.”
– Don’t be impatient. Take it easy. Don’t forget that the whole country was burned down because you moved impatiently, idiot.
As time passed and various information was collected, the devil found out why all the royal family he was supposed to be loyal to died and Raynald became the ruler.
Since the coup d’état that Raynald had staged was the culprit, of course the devil did not have good feelings towards Raynald.
Just because of his nature of being absolutely obedient to the one in power, he stayed calm and did not kill Raynald.
And because Raynald knew that, he couldn’t say anything to the devil who was verbally abusing him. Now he desperately needs the power of the devil.
– That’s amazing. It’s awesome. Are there such creatures in the world? You beat me by force.
“…… What?”
Reynard, who knew the devil’s strength well, widened his eyes upon hearing the unbelievable words.
“I defeated you with force?”
– Yes. They used force to suppress it, break it, and rip out its head. It’s fun.
“Is that possible?”
– I probably did it because it was possible. Is there anything more foolish than denying something that actually happened as impossible?
“Yes. Yes. …… Right. Are you human? “Report.”
When Raynald gave the command, the devil recited the visual information sent by the devil knight.
At first, Raynald had been paying attention to the story of a strong woman who had defeated a demon knight, but when the report came out that it was a woman with black hair and purple eyes, he was greatly shocked.
“…… Monia?”
– Hmm. Oh, that’s right. Your daughter had that impression. Isn’t that a similar person? Why would your daughter in the Japi Kingdom be here?
“Purple eyes are a symbol of our ducal family.”
Raynold pointed to his purple eyes beneath his hair, which had lost its color and turned gray as he got older.
– I see. They sneaked here from the Japi Kingdom? Why?
“…… Probably for revenge. “You foolish daughter.”
When Raynald started cursing his daughter endlessly, the devil ignored the swear words he had already heard many times and replayed the devil knight’s fight.
‘It’s strong. Not only the creature that killed me, but all the other humans are also one hundred warriors.’
The brown-haired man was especially impressive. I was amazed at the sight of him penetrating and penetrating his own attacks as if he could read the future.
‘What should I do to fight and win? Hmm… ….’
The devil spent his time thinking about interesting things, and Raynald gave orders to the Firmament Knights.
Bring Monia, who escaped from the wicked Japi Kingdom and entered the Viend Kingdom, to safety.
– Why did you give such an order?
“If you tell me to capture Monia, she might rebel and aim her spear here.”
– You must have gone through a lot of hardships because your daughter is beautiful.
