Became the Emperor in the Hero Game

82 – Part 2 Episode 38

The laws of the world are never absolute.

In the old days, followers of fire did not burn even when touched by fire, and followers of darkness did not lose sight even in the dark.

Then, what about the world where the masters of the old laws have fallen and only a few gods remain as victors?

The elf princess’s arrow pierced the air.

The arrow, which was not particularly strong or precisely aimed, accelerated gradually and then flew away and pierced the massacre that was out of sight of the elf princess.

Ten arrows flew one after another, and the ten slayer was killed.

Ten feet became a hundred, and a hundred died again.

Not a single arrow missed or was blocked.

The world favored the world tree and the granddaughter of the dragon.

“Couldn’t you be more sincere?”

“How about it, it’s okay to do this.”

The elf princess playfully responded to Riel Fail’s words.

To be honest, I was taking it seriously, as there are times when I would just throw arrows, but it was very uncomfortable for Riel to see.

“… Come.”

“Of course you should come. I exposed my location openly like this.”

Nia said, noticing the slaughter cultists who were soon arriving.

Originally living in seclusion in the great forest, Nia immediately ran out when she heard that the survivors of the beastmen had been massacred by the Slaughter Master.

Therefore, Shien’s colleague, Liel Fail to be precise, was concerned about this and consulted with Shien.

‘Let’s report to His Majesty. It’s better than finding out later.’

‘… Then I’ll do it.’

‘Yes, His Majesty cares about you.’

.

.

.

‘Let it be.’

‘Yes… ?’

‘Sh. Do as you please. It’s fine to go with Nia.’

.

.

.

Unexpectedly, Shien received His Majesty’s permission so easily.

It was a pleasure, but Riel, who felt puzzled that the work had been solved so easily, went straight to the Duke of Pale.

‘Patriarch.’

‘I’m busy at work right now, come see me later.’

‘… Father.’

‘Riel. Let’s talk about it later.’

‘After…… Dad.’

‘My daughter, did she come because she needed something?’

‘That…… ‘

‘Well, Your Majesty allowed it. Well… ‘

When asked by her daughter, Duke Pale remembered the emperor.

Sometimes merciful, often erratic, sometimes cruel His Majesty.

‘Anyway, didn’t all the nobles who hated beastmen die? That will have an impact too.’

‘Ah… ‘

‘Your Majesty respects their wrath and has them conquer the Land of the Beasts… It could be that he wasn’t able to carry on that will even after they died, or maybe he just loved Marquis Audas more than all of them.’

‘Isn’t His Majesty also disapproving of beastmen?’

‘That’s right. However, if you dare to consider His Majesty’s intentions, perhaps your anger has subsided a little after the majority of the beastmen were slaughtered by the Master Slaughter. Because I suffered a greater calamity than His Majesty’s punishment.’

Actually, is there any need to consider His Majesty’s will? It’s just a matter of being grateful for mercy.

Duke Pale said so, and Riel agreed.

In fact, Nia had complicated feelings about her people.

Yes. You can understand the war even if you make a hundred concessions.

By the way, without a word from me, without a declaration of war, invade the empire and commit a massacre?

Stupid bastards, those who were elite in fodder and had strength in their necks did such a thing and all died.

As the heir of the leader who was supposed to lead them once, she looked down on the dead warriors.

But she couldn’t help but worry about the remaining prisoners apart from him.

While she was agonizing over her complex feelings, she heard that all her people had been killed by a man called the massacre cult leader.

After hearing that, Nia stopped her troubles.

To be precise, I postponed my worries.

It’s okay to sort out your feelings for your own people after you’ve completed your revenge.

After finishing her thoughts, Nia ran into the crowd of slaughter cultists running this way.

Swords and spears loaded with her red aura flew at her randomly, but she had too many battlefields to be attacked by the weak trash.

From the battlefields he went out with when the leader of the beastmen still knew his honor, to the battlefields he went out with Shien.

Nia was used to this kind of melee.

In her melee, enough that she can stand shoulder to shoulder with Shien.

Nia’s fist struck the first Slayer’s face.

She didn’t die instantly, but it was powerful enough to temporarily incapacitate her.

Without even confirming that the first member was incapacitated, she moved her body.

Her second inmate twisted her arm holding her sword and broke her leg, while the third inmate grabbed her by the neck and pinned her to the floor.

Nia, who completed this entire process in a matter of seconds, immediately moved toward the other slaughter cultists.

She didn’t have to look back because the elf princess, Seria, would finish her off.

“I think the two of you will be enough here.”

“Actually, I am enough by myself.”

“Still, you should have a avant-garde, Seria. I am going.”

“Riel, you can’t… You don’t want to go to Shien, do you?”

At Seria’s careful question, Riel sighed and laughed before answering.

“No way. I want to go see Her Highness the Princess.”

“The Princess… ?”

“Certainly, Her Highness is aware of the overall situation of the war. I’ll have to go and ask them to send me to a place where there’s not enough power. It’s been a while since I’ve seen your face.”

“Ah… ! Yes, well done!”

“What the heck. Why do you come here again?”

Riel smiled at her friend’s consistent appearance and moved on with her.

The Slaughterers, who had already spread throughout Anon, blocked her path and rushed at them from time to time, but there was no one who could stop the successor of the Pale family.

——————————————————————————

The hero is coming.

That word resonated very heavily.

The Slaughterers and the Knights of Anon are all those who have gone through a war with the demon king’s army.

There were few people who directly faced the Demon King, but they clearly remembered how strong the army was and what kind of monsters the corps commanders were.

And it wasn’t difficult to imagine how strong the demon king who ruled over all of them and the hero who killed the demon king would be.

The shaman, who had been taking his time mocking the Lion King, shut his mouth, and the morale of the knights rose to an unparalleled level.

The elite of the Slaughter cultists, who maintained a relatively normal mindset due to their high level of achievement, were also shaken, and their necks began to be blown away by knights with less skill than themselves.

Only the magic swordsman stood calmly.

“A hero…… “

“Ha, I guess I’ll get help from him again. Then what, can I take the time on my side now?”

The Lion King said while turning his sword with a more comfortable expression.

If the empire could stop the massacre cultists spreading all over Anon, who had been worried all over Anon, he would only have to focus on the battlefield in front of her.

Still weak, but now that the morale of his allies soared and a situation was created, the Lion King knew how to use the momentum.

The Lion King took a short breath, gathered the aura, and spread it all over the battlefield as if bursting at once.

From noble mtl dot com

The range is all battlefield.

A domineering aura that does not discriminate against enemies has fallen on the battlefield.

Manses in the capital collapsed, and well-established roads collapsed.

All experts close to a thousand are on their knees, now

Only the Lion King, the magic swordsman, the shaman, and the leader of the Royal Knights stood on their own two feet.

“Why did you do such a stupid thing… ?”

Muttered Esus, the shaman of the Cult of Massacre.

It was definitely a great thing to press down on an expert who was close to a thousand with just force, put so much pressure on himself, and maintain it.

Perhaps it would be difficult for you to imitate such a task even if you prepared the spell over several days.

That means it’s not easy for even the Lion King to maintain these skills.

“Mr. Magic Swordsman! It’s now! The Lion King quickly… !”

Before the shaman’s words were finished, the magic swordsman rushed at the lion king.

Since the Lion King is using a significant amount of his strength to pressurize the battlefield, the magic swordsman won’t be pushed back this time.

No, if you do well, the lion king might not be able to receive the magic swordsman’s sword attack.

Quaaang!

Once again, the magic swordsman and the Lion King clashed.

“Uh… ?”

“……!”

However, the Lion King was still not pushed back, and the magic swordsman was pushed back.

“Tsk, did you think that the previous one was my strength? No way. Where in the world is there a madman who shows off his full power in front of my palace?”

The Lion King said, remembering the crown prince who was in charge of most of the state affairs.

Fortunately, the palace was saved, but since the city is in this state, they must say something.

However, thanks to that, many knights lived, so that was enough.

“Royal Knights, wake up.”

“Hmph, that could be it. Even I and this Master can’t stand it, but those knights… ?”

One of the Royal Knights, who had been pinned to the ground on his knees, got up and stabbed the slayer who was also on the ground with his sword.

The bewildered sorcerer drew a pattern in the air and tried to kill the knight, but the leader of the Royal Knights stood in his way.

It was slower than before, but the leader of the Royal Knights steadily attacked the shaman, and the shaman facing him could not stop the knights of Anon who rose one by one and finished off the fallen slaughterers.

“Our Royal Knights are the King… Proceed with training to resist the pressure of the electric charge. It was training in preparation for dealing with imperial knights, but I never thought it would be used against people like you.”

“Damn… ! If this wasn’t your land, I wouldn’t be able to compete with you… !”

“What would the guy who came all the way here say?”

At the words of the sorcerer who shouted desperately, the leader of the Royal Knights replied with a laugh.

The shaman could not surpass the master, and the disciples died one after another without being able to wake up.

‘Still, there is still hope.’

The sorcerer looked at the magician competing with the lion king.

I wonder if even the lion king has a limit, the distance the magic swordsman was pushed gradually decreased, and from a certain moment, both sides were competing swords with each other without being pushed at all.

‘If the Magic Swordsman-san were to defeat the Lion King, how many of these guys would be… !’

Weee!

The shaman’s thoughts were cut off with a huge gong sound.

The blue sword that came from far away attacked the magic swordsman, and the magic swordsman hurriedly raised his energy and faced it with a greatsword.

The greatsword wrapped in a dark red aura and the blue sword collided, and the magic swordsman fell terribly.

“Sorry for the delay, Lion King.”

“Welcome back, Shien.”

A hero has appeared on the battlefield.
