38 – Choi Da-hee, her regrets
“Uh… The walls of our Goddess Kingdom… Are under attack by the Demon King’s army.”
The soldier was terrified and talked. It had to be, because inside the temple, news had already spread that Yun Seong-won had been badly beaten.
Of course, the news that Hero Yoon Seong-won was unilaterally beaten by the demon king Saris did not spread to the general public at all. If the people find out, you don’t know what kind of aftershock will come.
That’s why, while hiding the massive casualties, the Demon King retreated after being hit by a hero, and fabricated and spread the information. Maybe the people might not be afraid of this situation now that the demon army is attacking. Because you will think that Yoon Seong-won will defeat you again like before.
However, the soldiers of the Goddess Nation knew the truth. In addition to Hunters and wizards, various powers had no choice but to be afraid. A demon king who even the hero of one goddess country was crushed by the difference in overwhelming power. It was rather natural to be afraid that the demon king’s army led by such a demon king would attack.
Looking at the soldier making a fuss, Abelida thought to herself.
‘They’ve already invaded?’
It hasn’t been that long since Saris told her to come find Kang Eun-chan. She was wrong when she thought it would give her a longer grace period.
‘It’s a big deal… At a time when Heo Na-yoon isn’t there either.’
Heo Na-yoon is not usually the type to have a lot of power, but her phoenix is no different from a hidden card. She was usually obedient, so she didn’t bother to put up surveillance, but she ran away when the Demon King’s army attacked, even if the timing wasn’t good, it was really bad.
Goddess Abelida looked around her and shouted.
“Gather troops now! Summon not only Hero Yun Seong-won, but also all other members of the warrior party except for Na-yun Heo, and gather all the forces that can be operated, including hunters, wizards, and soldiers-!”
After a while, she spoke coldly.
“At this point, we are not sure whether we will be able to receive support from our allies. When the walls are breached, we are finished. Protect the wall no matter what. That way we can survive.”

-Koo-ung-!
-Koo-ung-!
-Koo-ung-!
Kasuma, a monster that looked like a rhinoceros, was advancing with a massive body and a tremendous sound. Reward, the man riding on top of it, muttered boredly.
“Haa… I heard the demon king lost his senses because he was released from the seal after a long time?”
At Reward’s murmuring, Heina, the woman next to him, glared at him and spoke.
“Leward, what else are you talking nonsense about?”
Then, Leward shook his head and spoke.
“No, that’s true, honestly, it would be much easier to attack if we didn’t have to attack multiple goddesses one by one and destroy them one at a time. I mean.”
Hey I looked at Leward with her disgusted eyes.
“Leward, you fell asleep while the demon king was talking again, right?”
– Flinch
Leward shook his head and spoke urgently.
“You didn’t sleep? What are you talking about?”
“Whoa… Damn you, don’t lie to me. The Demon King has already told me why you are doing such a distributed attack, but you didn’t know because you slept?”
Leward scratched his head and replied.
“Ah, hey, am I quick to notice her? Since this has happened, can’t you tell me one more time?”
“I’m only going to say it once, so listen carefully. The reason we are conducting a large-scale distributed attack this time is simple. It is to find the hero Kang Eun-chan.”
“What? To find the hero Kang Eun-chan? Is he alive Didn’t he die and the demon lord was released from the seal?”
-Kadeudeuk
Heina looked at Reward with a disgusted look.
“You… Why in the world do you not know anything? How could a guy called an executive in the Demon King’s Army… Do it… It’s only my mouth hurting to ask. Let me explain in a moment. Kang Eun-chan, the warrior, is alive. Since the Demon King made a public announcement, it must be true. It is still unclear what method he used, whether he was possessed, resurrected, reincarnated or reincarnated, but it is certain that he is still alive somewhere. That’s why the Demon King launched a large-scale attack.”
“What does that have to do with it? Kang Eun-chan is in Goddess Abelida, right?”
From noble mtl dot com.
“No, I’m not sure. No one knows where Kang Eun-chan is now, whether it be in the Philiwena Goddess, the Abelida Goddess, or in another Goddess, until you see it yourself. It was because quite a bit of time had passed since Kang Eun-chan disappeared, so he could go anywhere. That’s why the Demon King is attacking multiple Goddesses at the same time. If you knock here and there, Kang Eun-chan will jump out and try to defend, and we will be able to find him.”
Leward nodded his head as if he knew it only then.
“So, since you don’t know where Kang Eun-chan is, you mean to stab him everywhere and attack him until he comes out?”
“You got it right. So shut up and follow me.”
“No, no, wait, I still have more questions.”
Leward paused for a moment before talking.
“Why the hell is the demon god so obsessed with Kang Eun-chan? He’s never been like that before, has he? Strong, but only human? He’s not even a divine being, so I don’t know why he cares so much.”
Heina smiled and replied.
“Only humans? Didn’t you have your whole body torn apart by humans and couldn’t even crawl properly?”
“That… I was just caught off guard! Now, all of the wounds have been healed by the power of the Demon Lord! If we fight again, I win!”
“Thoughts are free. Ah, if you’re lucky, Kang Eun-chan might come out of Goddess Abelida, where we’re heading now. Then why don’t you compete again?”
-Parr Leure
In an instant, Reward’s body began to tremble.
“G… It won’t come out for real, will it? You say you don’t know where you are?”
Heina looked at Reward in a pitiful way. And she talked
“I don’t know if Kang Eun-chan will come out or not. If we want the two of us to live, we must hope that we don’t run into him. It’s impossible for the two of us to deal with a man who can stand against the Demon Lord.”
“… I didn’t want to go because of you? Can’t I go alone?”
“If you want to run away, run away. Instead, report it to the Demon King.”
“Just kill yourself, why?”
Heina muttered while ignoring Reward, who looked at her resentfully.
“It is true that Kang Eun-chan is strong. However, I don’t quite understand why the Demon King is so obsessed with that part. He put on a happy expression every time he fought, but it’s hard to see it simply because of that… It feels like he’s representing human behavior.”
Reward asked.
“Are you claiming to be human?”
“It seems that the demon king is in unrequited love.”
“Puhahahahaha”
Leward laughed madly and made fun of Heina.
“Demon King-sama’s unrequited love? You’re talking nonsense, hey, are you nervous too? How can you say such nonsensical things?”
Hey, I shut her eyes tight as if I was acknowledging it.
“Pretend you haven’t heard.”
-Quwaaa!
In an instant, Kasuma let out a sound.
“Oh, we finally arrived.”
The walls of the goddess Abelida were visible in front of them.
***
Meanwhile, inside the Goddess of Abelida.
The Goddess Abelida prepared numerous troops.
Available hunters, wizards, and even a warrior party. They deployed people who could be called their strength.
In addition, Seongwon Yoon was also invited to participate in the contest. In the current situation, the only hero that could be used was Yoon Seong-won.
“hehehehe…”
Yoon Seong-won cleared his throat while looking at the other warrior party members. And he didn’t ask anyone, and he started talking to himself.
“Before, I was careless and made mistakes. If the Demon King appears again this time, you will be able to see him fall down in one hit of my attack.”
Yoon Seong-won, who has not come to his senses even after suffering like that. He bluffed his words until he reached the wall. Of course, not many people listened to the words of Yoon Seong-won, who was once crushed by the demon king.
Choi Da-hee was listening to the story from afar. She was disgusted
‘A low-quality person…’
There was no shortage of describing the newly inaugurated hero as a trashy person. He has a strong desire for authority and is full of vanity. Not even capable
‘Hero Eunchan Kang wasn’t like this…’
Choi Da-hee and the Kang Eun-chan she knew were courageous, genuinely caring for people, and full of confidence and self-confidence. He is such a nice person who knows how to be considerate of others and is humble without being arrogant. He was a caring person at the same time.
“Everyone evacuate-!”
The soldiers moved to the wall, and all the residents living around the wall began to move toward the center of the Goddess Nation.
Choi Da-hee thought as she looked at the people who quickly ran away.
‘Can we… All live?’
When Kang Eun-chan was a warrior, Choi Da-hee had never thought of that. It has to be. Kang Eun-chan was strong, and he always took the lead in protecting everyone before the monsters invaded first.
However, Kang Eun-chan, who protected her, is no longer there. Yoon Seong-won, who has become a new hero, is only a shell of vanity and incompetence.
Choi Da-hee recalled the face of Kang Eun-chan, the warrior. Today, I missed him so much.
‘If…If I had trusted the hero…’
She regretted it. I missed Kang Eun-chan’s face so much. I missed Kang Eun-chan who dignifiedly told me that it was okay, don’t worry, and that he would protect me.
At that time, I heard Yun Seong-won’s voice.
“We have arrived at the wall. When I sensed my surroundings, the monsters were also nearby.”
“Everyone, prepare your defenses.”
