Episode 172 – Demon Lord
“Yum yum yum.”
“… ….”
“Yum yum yum yum yum yum yum.”
“… Is it delicious?”
“Umm… yes.”
The girl nodded her head as she ate the soup.
When Dina saw a little girl who looked just like her, eating soup like someone who had starved for thousands of years, she put on a puzzled expression.
But it wasn’t just her that was embarrassing, it was me as well.
‘Two Dina….’
Two Dina… ! This is perfect….
‘What should I do… !’
“Siwoo?”
“Ugh, huh?”
She looked at Dina, confused by the sudden voice calling me, and she was looking at me with strange eyes.
“Weren’t you just thinking about something very strange?”
“I don’t know what you mean.”
“Suddenly, what kind of honorifics….”
Dina shook her head as if she was done, and looked at the girl in front of her again.
… What? Had Dina learned her mind-reading skills?
Now I shuddered at the ignorance of the worldview’s strongest person (scheduled), who seemed to be able to look into the minds of others.
‘… I’ll stop joking around here.’
Until now, I deliberately had strange thoughts and kept my composure on the outside, but honestly, it’s hard.
That’s true, because I knew the real identity of this girl who was adding extra iron to the rice soup.
‘Actually, not knowing is more strange.’
For that reason, I was possessed by this world while reading the novel called “Being out of the world”.
So that you know most of the knowledge in advance.
The first hint is that she doesn’t feel any energy from the girl.
Not to mention mana, heartbeats, and other things that should be felt in a living creature, the girl couldn’t feel them at all.
So, at first, I thought about whether it was a zombie or something revived by necromancer, but….
That thought didn’t even last 3 seconds.
There is no way that a being revived by necromantic magic could move and think on its own with self-consciousness.
You can say whatever you want, much less eat.
So, first of all, the theory that it is a zombie is dismissed.
Then there is only one assumption left….
With her own will, she is controlling the leakage of all signs, including her magic power, from her body.
To the extent that Dina and I didn’t notice at all.
What this meant was simple.
A being far stronger than us. In other words, they are different beings from us.
There are still many people stronger than me in the world, but if you think about Dina, it’s different.
She is already strong enough to be voted three fingers within Star City, including the academy.
Although he loses most of the time when he fights with Stia due to compatibility issues, his skills are similar to or one level higher than that.
Astell Academy is one of the best academies in the world, and in Star City, an academy city centered on outstanding academies.
‘That’s why there are so many heroes.’
Retired heroes who spent their entire lives on the battlefield, active heroes, and academy graduates.
Being able to be pulled out with three fingers in such a place means that even if you talk to the whole world, there are very few beings stronger than her that can be counted on her hand.
But is there a being that can completely fool her senses?
This meant only one thing.
And the fact that she looked exactly like Dinah, except that her hair was black, was a testament to my belief.
‘… Devil.’
That was the true identity of the girl in front of me.
“Can I have another bowl please?”
“Oh, yes. Yes.”
… Really? In fact, I don’t even believe in myself.
Rather than the fact that the girl in front of me is the Demon King, the fact that she already has 16 bowls of soup in her tiny frame.
Is the devil’s camouflage different?
I don’t think it’s a physically acceptable amount….”
Demon king really eats soup like crazy like a man who has been starving for thousands of years… No, he drank
Certainly, watching them suck up the soup they just came out of like a vacuum cleaner gave me goosebumps.
Maybe I will be eaten like that someday!
However, I couldn’t help but buy it because I thought that if it was the demon king, he might have actually starved for thousands of years or ate grass roots.
… It’s not because I’m afraid
I’m not buying it because I don’t want to die.
“Yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum.”
Still, it seemed that he was starting to feel full.
It was like a hamster chewing hard on how delicious it was.
Besides, since she looks exactly like Dina, something….
“Siwoo?”
“I didn’t think it was strange.”
“… ? I haven’t said anything yet.”
“Ah… What?”
From Noble mtl dot com
Then, Dina suddenly clung to me. Why, why?
Then they start whispering in my ear.
“That child… Don’t you feel like a child who has been starving for a long time? Eating without stopping… Why are you twisting your body like this?”
“Oh, it’s tickling….”
Today I realized that my ears are weak.
If a girl who looks exactly like Dina fights with me and suddenly blows whoops in my ear, I’ll be incapacitated.
In that sense, it can be said that the demon king is no different from my natural enemy.
But I have to say something about Dina’s question.
“Dina. Do you think that eating 16 bowls in one sitting is possible after only a few days of starvation?”
“Oh.”
That’s a more pitiful child who starved for thousands of years!
I wanted to shout that, but I held back.
I didn’t know what would happen if the other person noticed that I noticed that girl was the demon king.
… In fact, it seems like he noticed it when he looked at me with strange eyes in between.
‘Save me. Really. Please.’
If you help me, you can kneel down and pray, or you can show off a stunt by turning round and round while supporting your body only with the top of your head.
Even if you ask me to lick my feet, please let me lick them.
“Ah… ! What the hell am i thinking… !”
I jumped up and shouted that, and Dina looked at me in surprise.
“Si, Siwoo! What happened!”
“No… Nothing!”
I thought I just got used to Dina’s appearance… Dinah with a different taste suddenly appeared, and it was said that her mind went into a stupor.
… A different flavor of Dinara! The tone is too raunchy… !
Two flavors of Dinah….
Now, let’s stop thinking nonsense. Thinking about it makes me go crazy.
Actually, the problem is this.
‘Why did the demon king suddenly appear?’
It had already become too far from Akanak Castle and Oeyoung, but even so, I couldn’t guess why the demon king suddenly appeared.
Come to think of it, it was the Demon King who helped me fight Pennheim.
Actually, it’s only because the demon king is holding the energy to the point that I can’t feel it at all. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to breathe properly.
Simply put, it is a state similar to insensitivity to safety.
As an Awakener, I naturally came to trust my senses too much.
Even if you know it’s not like that in your head, the girl in front of you looks harmless in the world, so your thoughts keep falling into strange places.
Perhaps even this is the devil’s goal.
… Her resemblance to Dina also played a part.
In the meantime, I got used to it and endured it somehow, but Dina is the owner of a skill called [Gyeonggukjisaek].
Although it was not a skill with a special function, it was actually a skill that was no different from an honorary title.
In other words, it meant that she was simply overwhelmingly beautiful and had a skill-like effect just with her appearance.
It’s not that the effect of the skill makes you look pretty, it’s that you have such a skill because your appearance is excessively pretty.
So, of course, the demon king who looked exactly like Dina must have had [Gyeonggukjisaek].
There are such beauties with bright colors sitting next to them and one across from them.
Perhaps it is only natural that my mind keeps getting confused.
To be honest, I’m not good at talking around the corner, so I wanted to ask straight up why he suddenly appeared if he had a natural temperament.
If I ask like that here and things go wrong, not only me but also Dina will be in danger.
You don’t have to take such a risk.
‘First of all, ignore it now, and look for an opportunity later….’
Just as I was thinking that, the demon king suddenly stood up.
Startled, she flinched and took a defensive stance on her own. Dina looked at me like I was crazy.
“I ate it all.”
In the end, you ate up to the 16th bowl!
“So….”
The demon king was speechless and glanced at me and Dina.
Gulp.
I was nervous, so I swallowed and watched the demon king’s movements.
If I saw even the slightest suspicious movement, I planned to pick Dina up and jump.
Actually, it might have been the case with the demon king, but….
‘I still bought 16 bowls of soup!’
Won’t you kill me?
Looking at the demon king’s inorganic eyes, it didn’t seem safe for some reason.
… Wouldn’t it kill you?
And finally, the devil’s backstory continued.
“Let’s go to the academy.”
Yeah?
Taking the demon king to the academy?
‘Wouldn’t it be possible to be arrested and executed for treason if I did something wrong?’
No. Before that, there was no guarantee that I wouldn’t be killed by the demon lord.
Help me!
