226 – The Story of the Demon Sword (1)
“Ugh… Ah…”
I lost all my strength and just lie down on the bed. Everyone says something when they see me, but the energy to respond has long since disappeared.
What is this…
Do I have to do this every day from now on?
I’ve already experienced this once, when I tried it with all 8 people at the same time, but I can’t get used to it.
At the time, I was able to hold on with the expectation that this would be the end of it, but now I am just filled with fear that something like this will happen again in the future.
“Ugh… It’s not enough.”
“Please make it stand a little taller… It’s already completely withered so it’s going to be difficult. Use it…”
What is the biggest difference between men and women? That is, you do not get tired when having s*x.
No, to be exact, men have limits, but women have far higher limits. And since there are nine women who have no limits, I can never satisfy them all on my own.
I am more than satisfied, I am exhausted, and although everyone has already done it 3 times per person, they are either dissatisfied or are making up for what is lacking with their own hands.
“Ah, that’s right!!”
At that moment when everyone, including me, was intimidated, Lucia suddenly opened her palm as if she had finally realized it, slammed her fist on it, and screamed.
“Can’t we just turn back time?”
“…Huh?”
“If I turn back time, I can do it infinitely. Wow, I’m such a fool that I didn’t think of this until now.”
And the sound that came out of Lucia’s mouth… Was so frightening.
Lucia clearly has an innocent expression, but the more you look at that expression, the more anxious she becomes.
“But if I do that, won’t all the essence I received be rewound?”
“Elias, that’s true, but the essence doesn’t disappear anyway, it’s just postponed to appear at the end, so it doesn’t matter, right? We can just enjoy it.”
“Ah… Well, that’s right.”
Leaving me lying on the bed, a very horrifying story starts to spin around my stomach.
I desperately want to intervene and stop this horrifying story, but I don’t see any chance of doing so.
You can’t run away. They stand around me like knights of a round table, with me in the middle, so I can’t see any gaps.
Uh, how… What should I do…
Finch-
At that moment, a spark passed through my mind.
That spark is something I have longed for even though it has been very annoying until now: it is someone’s wish.
Clearly… Responding to wishes was different from normal magic, perhaps? If you really think about it, is it similar to the laws of the world?
Most of the people here are demons, but seeing as they haven’t sensed this wish yet, it seems like they’re trying to give only me the price they deserve.
…Good.
Okay, I did it 3 times 9 times, but this is enough for a honeymoon. This is absolutely not about failing to fulfill your duty and running away.
Flash!!
“…What?”
“Wait a minute, Dad!!”
When a familiar red magic circle appeared below me, everyone’s complexion changed in an instant.
Lucia, who had called me honey, was very embarrassed and started calling me dad again.
“No matter what, I don’t think it can go any further than this. I’ll come back, so just wait!!”
“Dad!!!! When you come back, I won’t leave you alone-“
At the end of the scene where numerous hands are reaching out towards me, the scenery changes in an instant. The sounds that filled my ears also disappeared in an instant.
Unlike the room full of light, the scene I see right now lacks light, so everything looks blurry. However, even in that dimly visible space, you can clearly see the corpses lying on the floor.
Let’s see… Who did this?
“You really… Showed up…”
It seems there was no need to find out who the wisher was.
When I turn my head in the direction of the sound, I see someone dressed in foreign clothes looking at me and widening their eyes in shock.
Hmm… This is an outfit I’ve never seen before, but I guess I’ve come quite far.
“…I meet the devil.”
Everyone in the places where I and my relatives have been active until now will all know me, so there is no way they would react like they are seeing the devil when they see me.
As you can guess from the outfit, it looks like it was indeed summoned quite far away.
“…Please accept this offering and grant my wish.”
I was quietly watching to see what he would say, but the person who summoned me suddenly started saying strange things.
What do you get? A tribute?
No, there is nothing around, so what on earth can I get… Oh, you mean these corpses?
Hmmm…
Okay, I got it roughly. He wasn’t a normal guy this time either.
Well, there aren’t many people sane enough to sell their soul to the devil.
“What you want.”
“Yes?”
“Tell me what you want.”
After hearing my repeated words, the young man who summoned me hurriedly opened his mouth and began to speak, as if he had finally realized it.
The young man who summoned me was a famous swordsman in this area, and the corpses filling around me were the royal family, nobles, and subjects of the palace who looked down on this swordsman.
The king had so much authority that he planned to summon the swordsman, who posed a great threat to the king’s royal authority, to the palace and assassinate him, but the swordsman who noticed this and turned the tables on him… Seems to be the story.
Ah, what I wanted to know was not the back and forth, but just listening to what I wanted and trying to get the job done in a good way, but why is there so much noise?
“So? What on earth do you want? You’re not so weak that you have to make a wish to the devil.”
“Please completely destroy this demon sword, take my soul, and punish me forever.”
And this sword saint’s wish was truly beyond my expectations.
…Is there anyone who summons a devil to kill them?
No, that’s just a secondary thing, and it seems like the main wish is to destroy that sword… But I can’t help but feel ridiculous.
“This magic sword eats away at the user’s will. I was just trying to escape from this palace, but when I came to my senses, I found myself like this.”
Geomseong holds the sword backwards and extends his arm forward, showing me the blade.
Hmm… Is it an ego sword with magical energy? So why on earth are you using this weapon?
Weapons with a will are a pain in the ass because they try to devour the user whenever they get the chance. In the area where I was active, there was a culture of destroying everything on sight, but it seems there is no such culture here.
Anyway, that’s not what’s important right now.
“Even if it wasn’t your original will to kill them, didn’t you try to offer these corpses as an offering to me, the devil?”
The problem is this.
Even though it was not his will to kill people, he tried to offer the bodies to me, so this is something that deserves to be criticized.
In response to my sharp question asking where he is acting like a good guy, Geomseong awkwardly lowers his head and continues his speech.
“Demons want corpses. I’m not asking them to capture the souls of the victims and make them suffer, but if I can destroy the demon sword and punish my soul forever by giving them the corpses in return, the victims will be fully satisfied. .”
But the swordsman’s answer after that was so absurd.
Why do you want a corpse? What kind of demon looks like a ghoul?
The devil just wants negative emotions and souls, and doesn’t really care what happens to the corpse.
“That’s foolish.”
“Yes?”
From Noble mtl dot com
“Do you have ownership of this corpse? Above all, have you ever thought about what would happen to the souls of the original owners if I, the devil, accepted the corpse?”
The Sword Saint’s face instantly turns pale as he realizes that if he had really sacrificed the bodies, he could have made the victims suffer forever.
What, have you never thought about that until now? How on earth is your head like a flower garden… Oh, so you’re using a weapon like this?
“…Excuse me, could you please go back?”
“Summon it and do whatever you want… That’s foolish.”
“Ugh…!”
Above all, it seems that the Sword Saint arbitrarily decided that something very terrible would happen if he summoned a demon as strong as me and could not give him an appropriate reward.
If you don’t defeat me right here, this area will be devastated.
Geomseong picks up the magic sword he asked me to destroy just now and points it at me.
…This is a bully.
To be honest, I want to tell you that it’s all a misunderstanding, but I don’t have the will to do so. Should we just beat him in the back and destroy that magic sword as he wants?
“I didn’t want to borrow this guy’s power… Ugh…!”
Gooooo!!
As I stared at the Sword Saint in bewilderment, magical energy poured out from the Demon Sword and enveloped the Sword Saint’s body.
The will of the Sword Saint has already disappeared, and its place is filled with the will of the Demon Sword.
Hmm, is this the process by which a weapon with a will consumes its user? It looks similar to Noah’s body snatching process.
That sword saint seems strong in his own way, but that magic sword must be quite strong enough to completely suppress the will of the sword saint.
Paaa!!
“…?”
And the actions of the Demon Sword that took over the body of the Sword Saint were truly swift.
In an instant, the demon sword turns its back on me and runs away from me, moving its legs with all its might.
Compared to the owner, he makes decisions very quickly.
