105 – Yggdrasil (11)
The devil who will talk to me alone.
He must have missed me so much that he greets me with the most urgent face in the world.
From Noble mtl dot com
‘You don’t have to like it that much.’
-Anyone can see that it doesn’t seem like that, owner?
-Hush! In that case, you pretend not to know. Sister.
Ig pretends not to notice my self-justification.
It is clear that this person is my older sister.
She thought about that for a moment.
“Are you hurt anywhere, master?”
Jane suddenly comes next to me and asks in a voice full of worry.
I shrugged my shoulders.
“Ah. Well, I wasn’t seriously hurt.”
-Actually, I restored it, but ahem!
I looked around, ignoring Jukchang’s growl.
As expected, the war is still going on and the Demon Lord’s army is trying to break through Yggdrasil somehow.
However, there is a world tree that has not yet completely fallen.
Thanks to this, the elves are doing well.
“Between. “What happened to the students?”
“No one has been seriously injured yet.”
“Okay. I’m glad.”
When I answered that, the Demon King pointed to Ig and asked.
“You, you… What is that?”
“Hmm?”
“Why is there one more decisive battle weapon?!”
Hearing those words, the women around him, including Sai, looked at Ig as if they had finally realized it.
I raised an eyebrow at that question.
“One more thing that you were so wary of has happened.”
“Huh?”
“Well, it’s a slightly different ability, but it would be quicker to show it.”
I lifted Ig slowly.
At the same time.
-Woah!
I infused magical power into Ig.
Then, Ig started shaking as if he had been waiting for this moment.
Next moment.
-Cooooo!
Bamboo spears made of magical power appeared in the sky.
‘It shouldn’t end here.’
Everything was sorted out with this earlier, but aren’t there more troops here?
So, you will need to use other things at the same time.
-Phew!
This time, I put Ig in the ground.
In an instant, magical power spreads out from the ground.
Then.
-Sooooo!
Bamboo spears rose up from the ground.
A bamboo spear that appears from heaven and earth.
For a moment, the demons were taken aback by the sudden bamboo spear.
-Quaaagh!
-Wow!
-Hu, retreat!
-Run away!
Bamboo spears were thrown equally at all the demons.
Without any direction towards our allies.
“What is this…?”
The demon king’s alter ego made a devastated expression, probably because it was quite shocked.
I guess I really like my new weapon.
“It definitely wasn’t bad, Demon King. Honestly, if it had been just a little bit later, Igg might have been affected by your plan instead of being created.”
“Ugh!”
She bit her lip as if she was angry at my words.
I smiled while looking at her expression.
“But the result is like this? “Then let’s get it right now.”
After saying those words, I would have struck the Demon King’s clone with a bamboo spear.
“Hwaaa!”
At the same time, Senna looked at me with envy, but that wasn’t important.
***
Approximately 6 hours have passed since then.
The war eventually ended completely.
The elf queen bowed politely to us.
“Thank you for helping me this time.”
“No. “We can do that because we are allies.”
The princess smiles triumphantly, as if she is quite happy.
I guess I never thought we would be this active.
‘Well, what kind of professor would you normally think would have this kind of power?’
I turned my gaze to the queen.
Soon, a question was asked.
“Well, may I ask you one question?”
“Yes. “I will answer any questions you may have.”
The queen said that with a gentle smile.
Maybe it’s because she’s an elf, but she’s so beautiful just by smiling.
She opened her mouth with such sentiments.
“What is the status of the World Tree now?”
“The condition is getting worse due to the devil.”
“Hmm…”
As expected, even if you kill the demon king’s clone, the world tree does not seem to improve.
Originally, there would be no reason to interfere further than this since we have already completed our duties.
‘But, since I received help from that tree, it would be right to help.’
After I finished thinking, I opened my mouth.
“Then I will come back and see if it is possible to resolve it.”
“”····Yes?””
In a moment, the elf queen and her daughter Elin open their eyes.
I guess I didn’t know that I could solve it.
“Don’t be too sure though. “To be honest, there is no guarantee that it will work.”
“Yes, yes! All right. Still, thank you for coming.”
No. Don’t expect that much.
It seems like the queen thinks a solution is possible because of what I showed her.
Honestly, it’s not a lie and there’s no guarantee that it’s true.
‘You won’t change your stance and say you can’t leave this like this, right?’
She thought that way for a moment, but I don’t think she would show that attitude.
Anyway, now that I’ve said it, I need to quickly go to the back of the World Tree.
We slowly walked behind the World Tree.
At that time.
“Are you here now?”
The gazelle was looking behind the World Tree from a distance, as if it had been waiting.
The queen tilted her head as she looked at the gazelle.
“Hmm? What are you doing here? “A man who has no interest in anything other than blacksmithing.”
“Well, that friend is related to me.”
At those words, the eyes of my companions focused on me.
I opened my mouth.
“Well, I just requested a weapon.”
“Yes? “Gazel took over the request?!”
The next moment, Elin, who had silently kept her mouth shut, is shocked.
Given what Gazelle has done so far, it is natural for her to be so shocked.
– If you are a gazelle, are you the legendary blacksmith?
-Did the professor have a friendship with that person?!
-Crazy.
And she wasn’t the only one surprised.
It seems that the students and female group behind me had no idea that I knew Gazelle.
‘Well, Gazelle’s name is quite famous even in the Empire.’
He is actually called the pinnacle of blacksmithing, so it would be even more strange not to know.
Anyway, that’s it.
“So why are you here?”
“I came to check the power of my masterpiece. Just by looking at it, it seemed like you were going to come to solve this problem.”
I guess I ate jjambap for no reason.
This is why he is a quick-witted gentleman.
“Don’t be surprised when you see this. “Maybe your abilities are better than you imagined.”
With those words, I approached the world tree, which was rotting and crumbling.
Soon, Ig was slowly lifted up.
At the same time.
-Whaaah!
Magic power emanates from Ig.
At the same time, the evil energy encroaching on the World Tree gradually fades away.
The elves who saw that widen their eyes.
‘It turned out better than expected.’
In fact, Ig’s abilities are not limited to wide areas.
How would it be possible to defeat the entire Demon King’s army if that was all there was to begin with?
Of course, I gave Ig one ability.
That is none other than the ability of nullification like a bamboo spear.
Thanks to that, it would have been possible to tear down the barrier of the Demon King’s army.
‘Hmm. ‘It’s a shame I found an ancient scroll.’
If it weren’t for that, we would have been in real trouble.
Anyway, the demon king’s magic is gradually disappearing.
Then after a while.
“Yes. It’s done.”
Soon, the demonic energy encroached upon the World Tree completely disappeared.
For a moment, the elves look happy.
As expected, the World Tree is like a food line for them.
‘Well, in a way, the World Tree does half the work.’
The moment I thought that.
-Hot!
Suddenly the elf queen takes my hand.
I was startled by her sudden behavior.
At the same time, she says.
“Thank you, truly, you are a hero to our Yggdrasil.”
“No. “With something like this.”
“No. If you have time, come with me…”
The next moment, I felt a cold chill from behind.
I guess I was the only one who felt it, but the elf queen’s face turned pale.
“Queen?”
At that time, the princess calls her with her ice-cold voice.
And then, he smiles scaryly.
“How about you stop holding the professor’s hand?”
“Yes, yes. Yes. Ahahahaha.”
With those words, she quietly removes her hand.
So, unlike the original future, he would have succeeded in protecting Yggdrasil from the Demon King.
***
Meanwhile, at that time.
After finishing his self-consolation, the Demon King sighed quietly.
“Ha… The loss is bigger than I thought.”
Honestly, I don’t care if my alter ego dies.
The pleasure that seems addictive comes over me, but that’s it.
Isn’t something disappearing?
‘We lost too many officers and troops.’
No. Actually, that doesn’t matter either.
Losing Leviathan is painful, but you can fill in the rest yourself.
However.
‘Ugh… This time I made another strange weapon. That man.’
Even with just one weapon, Elric would be in trouble and would die, but he created another decisive battle weapon.
Even so, it would be a weapon that complements his weaknesses.
‘In the end, it can’t be helped.’
I tried to avoid a match with Elric as much as possible, but no matter how much I think about it, there is no sign of winning if things continue like this.
Now, there is only one way for the Demon King’s army to win against humanity.
‘I’m going to take the initiative and kill Elric before he grows up.’
Although a new weapon was created, what was certain was that it did not seem to be more powerful than the original bamboo spear.
Isn’t it clear that since it is only used for soldiers, it is not intended for one-on-one use?
‘I step forward myself before he grows up.’
And before that, we need to use the traitors as well.
With that thought in mind, the Demon King must have smoothed his buttocks without realizing it.
