163 – On my way to die?
“… ”
“abstinence… Dream Land… ”
After the story of Beelzebeauty, a chilly atmosphere lingers in the room.
In the face of this reality that the world was literally on the verge of extinction, the faces of those in the room were filled with heavy feelings of fear.
“The fortunate thing is that our demon kingdom does not fall within the scope of that magic. It’s probably because the shape of the magic circle couldn’t be completed, but… If the Nation of Darkness swallows the continent in that way, it can be said that it is almost certain where the blade will go.”
“I guess so. Of course, I will act like that right after unifying the continent.”
“So the bottom line is, how do we stop this… Is there any way?”
“Yes, there is. However, it is not easy.”
Beelzebeauty answers Elisa’s question with a serious expression.
Regarding this, Elisa felt joy at the fact that she had found a solution even in the midst of this, and anxiety at the same time that she complained that the way was not easy, unlike Beelzebeauty.
‘Anyway, the fact that a guy who doesn’t use expressions like that talked to that level must mean that the level of difficulty is Hell… ‘
That being said, it’s only natural that solving a world-destroying crisis isn’t going to be an easy task.
In this situation where you can’t help but feel such a deep tension,
Beelzebeauty spoke to those present in a calm voice.
“For now, there is no point in touching other parts of the magic circle. There is only one thing that can be done to prevent the activation of magic. All you have to do is attack the source where magic begins.”
“Source… If… ”
“no way?”
Beelzebeauty talks about things you don’t want to think about.
Elisha and Nyathan and others automatically frowned at this.
Then, from Beelzebeauty’s mouth, the unpleasant story they were predicting began to flow.
“Yes, our destination is Rehui, the capital of the Nation of Darkness, and we must stop the ritual they are conducting there.”
“… uhm… ”
“… after… ”
A really ridiculously difficult story that came out of Beelzebeauty’s mouth.
To prevent it from happening by infiltrating into the enemy’s capital and raiding the place where the ritual is going to be held tightly with iron guard.
Immediately, success itself was close to impossible, and even if he somehow managed to succeed through the needle-like probability, it was very likely that the return immediately after that would be a confirmed death.
A situation where literally nothing comes to mind except the word despair.
It is impossible to succeed, and even if they succeed, they are deeply troubled about the operation, which will inevitably follow the result of death.
‘I always have the thought that I can die for my country, but… ‘
‘No matter how openly, being put on a mission to die… ‘
‘I’m happy that I finally met a good person. I don’t want to die like this.’
the world… Furthermore, if it was for the Demon Kingdom, it had to be decided, but nevertheless, the current situation was inevitable.
at that time.
Seeing them like that, he who had been silent all along…
Hero Eren said in a calm voice.
“Hey, there’s something I’d like to personally suggest about that. Maybe it’s a story that might lower the difficulty of this job a lot.”
“yes?”
“Something?”
Others, including Beelzebeauty, seem to have deep expectations for the story of the warrior Ellen.
towards them,
Eren, the other day, the story he had in the Falcon Empire…
He started talking about the ‘contract’ he had with Amun.
*
A contract with Amun, the god of pure love who hates NTR.
The story that if you remove the sealing stones located throughout the continent, he will descend to that area and give you punishment.
Immediately after hearing that, Beelzebeauty and others began to slowly nod their heads as they were.
“exactly… Still, it’s much easier than directly disrupting the ritual at the heart of our enemies.”
“If there’s a ritual going on there, I’m sure they’ll focus all their attention on that. If that happens, interest in the sealing stone or something will inevitably decline.”
Beelzebeauty and Nyadan express their affirmation of my words.
Looking at them like that, Elisa said with an expression of uneasiness.
“The problem is that we don’t know where the sealing stone is. I wonder if it was openly exposed like the world tree of the elven kingdom. There’s no way to find it if it’s hidden somewhere like the Falcon Empire.”
“Yes, it certainly is. So… I have brought in someone who can guide me in this regard.”
“yes? guide?”
Elisa starts to tilt her head at my words.
immediately after that,
I finished the conversation beforehand and called the person who had asked me to wait outside.
“yes? Are you Akil… Well… Well. Pura?”
“I’ll see you after a long time, Elisa-sama.”
*
A person who became a TS at the hands of Elisa in the past and now lives in the Nation of Darkness,
At the same time, Pura, the person who brought Amun into this world.
In addition to Cleopatra, she had enlisted followers of Amun all over the continent to destroy the sealing stone.
And among those people, there were quite a few people who had been planted in advance in relation to the sealing stone located in the Nation of Darkness.
“Originally, after the destruction of the World Tree failed, I tried to break the sealing stone of the Nation of Darkness a second time… Fortunately, the situation went well, so I was able to use my hands first on the Empire, which was actually the final goal.”
“Um… ”
“There was such a background… ”
Although the direction is different, it is a story that suddenly makes it impossible not to think that these were the forces of darkness plotting a continental emergency as much as the Nation of Darkness.
In that respect, I couldn’t help but feel quite uncomfortable.
In any case, satisfied with the fact that it could be useful to them as a result, they decided to set their goal in the direction of destroying the sealing stone rather than disrupting the ceremony.
“great. So, with this, the probability of success has risen to a level that can be done. Can we leave right away?”
“No, there are things that need to be done before that. We need to match the timing, so please move with some leeway.”
“yes? what is that?”
Elisa expresses her doubts about Beelzebeauty’s words.
Toward her, Beelzebeauty put on an expression that contained more seriousness than before, and spoke with an attitude that felt a bit more personal than the determination from before.
“Even though we decided to proceed with this in consideration of the aftermath that will affect us in the future, it is absolutely unacceptable for us to bear the loss alone. In that respect… ”
Belzebeauty’s words continued like that.
Regarding this, they nodded their heads at her proposal, feeling a bit scared as to whether Beelzebeauty’s ability to bring out the benefits of the Demon Kingdom even in this situation was good or tenacious.
‘exactly… We risk our lives to suffer, but it’s something we can’t let other guys suck on honey.’
‘Actually, they’re the first to see blood. It’s right that I have to do that much.’
Those who start preparing for execution immediately after all the situations are decided.
At the same time, Beelzebeauty immediately returned to the office and started sending out the letter she had prepared in advance.
*
A girl standing by the window of the royal castle and looking at the shining moon.
At this moment, she spoke in a calm voice with a smile of deep anticipation.
“It’s only been a month.”
“Yes, it is, Your Majesty the King of Darkness.”
“Maintenance of the magic circle has been completed, and now all that is left is to perform the ritual after filling up the magical energy.”
“Okay, let’s do our best until the end. without a single mistake. Let everything be done perfectly.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
The witch, Nyala, gets up from her seat after repeatedly bowing her head toward her master.
Although it was late, she hurriedly started moving as there were more things to do at night due to the nature of this magic.
By the way…
“lung… your majesty!”
“yes?”
“… What happened?”
The next moment, York hurriedly enters the room.
Nyala and the Sorcerer King began to show doubtful expressions as they questioned the urgency that was not typical of her.
Facing the two, York gasped and spoke in an urgent voice.
“nice… It was a big deal. I… Enemies… The Falcon Empire has formed an alliance with the elven kingdom and beast kingdom and has launched an invasion against us!”
“… .what?”
“ah… no, what nonsense is that? How are they at this point? I’m sure they must have been wrecked by the last war, but how?”
“that is… I don’t know the details either. But according to the information we just received, a large army of them has already crossed the border.”
An incident that occurred suddenly in a situation where only a few months had passed since the end of the war.
In this situation where it was clear that the national power had already reached its limit, it was really unexpected from their point of view that they even started an invasion by holding hands with enemies who had pointed swords at each other not long ago.
But,
As they were working, they also knew that this situation was not entirely impossible.
“I guess… It seems they noticed.”
“It seems so. You’re not as stupid as I thought.”
“First of all, mobilize as much force as possible to stop them. After a month, they will kneel before us anyway, so if we focus only on defense, we will win in the end.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
The subordinates immediately start acting according to the order of the Sorcerer King.
Looking at them, the Sorcerer King looked out the window quietly again with a cold smile.
‘No matter how much you guys run wild, it’s already too late. It’s as if this world is already in my hands.’
