16 – #016 Add deception to deception

One ring fell off.

To claim it, the four women rushed towards the ring.

“It’s mine…!”

Chae Yu-ri was the first to step out.

She wrapped flames around the ring, then prevented anyone from approaching it.

“Emperor! Come on, soldiers!”

“Keuugh…! Everyone, retrieve that ring! Come on! Risk your life! It’s Hwangmyeong!!”

Minsena immediately clung to the emperor, and the emperor issued an order to the soldiers.

Risking your life.

The soldiers had to pierce the flames of the red wizard to save the ring as long as the emperor’s order had been issued.

How?

The magic a hero uses?

Without any equipment, just to charge naked?

That fire pit?

“Come on! What are you doing! Get that ring right now!”

Only after the ferocious cry of the femme fatale resounded did the soldiers begin to move one by one.

However, no one was able to step over the pillar of fire.

The soldiers were willing to risk their lives and sacrifice themselves if it was a battle against the demons, but they did not feel deep in their hearts the justification for sacrificing for the sake of that ring.

“The ring is mine!”

In the end, Yuri Chae, who entered the pillar of fire using flying magic, grabbed the ring very easily.

“With this, I…!”

The moment Yuri Chae tried to put her ring on her finger herself.

Cheeruk!

Through the pillar of fire, something wrapped around Chae Yu-ri’s wrist.

“Ah…!!”

It was a whip.

It was Hwang Lian’s whip that came right in front of the pillar of fire.

“Ahhh…!”

Chae Yu-ri’s hand trembled as the whip with thorns like roses was wrapped around her wrist, and Hwang Lian yanked hard at the whip, trying to pull Chae Yu-ri out of the pillar of fire.

“Give me that!”

“I will never give it to you…!”

Chae Yu-ri did not let go of the ring even though blood flowed from his wrist and he was dragged out of the pillar of fire he had created.

“Retrieve that! Come on!”

Minsena is still screaming, while the enemy wizard and commander are confronting each other.

Ka-u-ang!

Something fell in the middle of the whip.

The hammer, with its enormous weight, knocked the whip straight to the floor, and Huang Lian, who was clutching the whip, fell forward before he could even let go of the whip.

Pug!

As she hit the floor and let go of the whip, Yuri Chae struggled to grab the ring as the whip’s power slightly loosened.

“I-“

“Give me…!”

The rest of the warrior, Park Ha-young, who had been watching until now, kicked Chae Yu-ri in the stomach and pulled his hand strongly.

“Ka, hahahaha…!”

The strength was so strong that his hand almost dislocated, and Chae Yu-ri had no choice but to withdraw her hand in pain.

“Hey, Park Ha-young!!”

“I-I’m going…! I don’t want to be here anymore!!”

Park Ha-young put his ring on her finger while crying.

“This b*tch!”

I tried to put it on.

In the end, Min Sena stepped forward and pulled Park Ha-young’s hair with one hand, and Park Ha-young was dragged by the hair.

“Leave this…!”

“Put down the ring! That, that… It’s because the demon lord’s curse resides!”

“Then why do you want to have this!”

“Shut up! If you tell me to put it down, I mean put it down!!”

I can’t hold onto my hair with only my wrist.

Min Sena ended up wrapping Park Ha-young’s hair with one hand, then grabbed her hair with her teeth and stretched out her free hand to the ring.

“It’s mine…! This is—”

Per-euk!

Someone kicked Sena Min in the back from behind.

The kick was so strong that Sena Min and Hayoung Park rolled on the floor at the same time.

“These b*tches…!”

Huang Lian staggered forward, holding onto his face as his nose bleed profusely.

The ring fell to the floor, and Huang Lian barely managed to pick it up with his hand.

“These b*tches, ha ha, do nothing surpluses try to get past me and go home…?”

“Hey!!”

“Where do you call me? I’m your sister, you f*cking…”

Knock.

The moment Huang Lian tried to put the ring on, the ring broke too easily.

“Huh?”

Before I could put it on my finger, the ring split in half and fell to the ground.

“No, that’s ridiculous. It can’t be like this…?”

“Assholes.”

Far away.

Clasping his bloody wrist, Yuri Chae, who wrapped the pillar of fire around herself again, smiled broadly as she waved the ring.

“Look at how they f*ck each other without knowing if it’s real or not.”

“Can’t believe the fake… When will you…?”

“What do I have to say? What will happen if I kindly block my vision with a pillar of fire and say that I have another ring ready? Fools. So… Bye!”

“No!!”

Yuri Chae put her ring on his finger.

She put it on her middle finger and stretched it out proudly.

“…Huh?”

From nob le mt l dot com

Nothing happened.

Something must have changed, but the ring did not respond.

“This can’t be like this…?! Also, send it back!! Hey!! Undertaker!!”

Click.

The ring is destroyed.

It split in half, half fell to the floor, and the other half was still on Chae Yu-ri’s fingers.

“This is crazy…!”

Four women realized.

That the ring was fake from the start.

“Where has the undertaker gone!!!”

The undertaker had already left and ceased to exist.

* * *

“The idiots.”

[You might have a knack for the Demon Lord’s Army?]

“Do the sh*t.”

I punched the blade of Kramuta, the demonic sword that cursed me, and then turned off the clairvoyant magic.

“I’m the Demon Lord’s army with those women making a fuss like that? Even if I say bad words, it’s a waste of money.”

[Then did you know what I would say?]

“Tsk. I’m afraid I’ll just throw it in the mud.”

[What? Wait a minute. Undertaker. Let us think rationally. Yes?]

“I’m very rational now.”

I kept flicking the core of the magic sword with my fingers.

“I prepared a fake ring to deceive them, and I keep running away while tearing up the teleport scroll. Thanks to this commotion, other people will also think, ‘What is the ring about?'”

[Hmm. It’s fun. It is a ring that can return to the original world.]

I told Kramuta about the general situation.

Although not an ally, I was confident that my emotional trash can wouldn’t brag about it to others, so I was able to say it without hesitation.

[This is strange. Wouldn’t you just go with the saintess then?]

“I can’t go.”

I already checked.

Right after I woke up, as soon as I saw the saintess, the first thing I did was put a ring on her finger.

It didn’t work.

I wanted to take the saintess straight to Earth, but that was impossible.

So, I came up with a plan.

The best plan to return to Earth together with the saintess that both I and the saintess can be satisfied with.

“Hey. Kramut. I’ll quietly get out of this world, so cooperate with me too.”

[Of course. If only one of you disappears, the other four won’t give a damn.]

“That’s harsh.”

[Isn’t that true? As you said, if they can continue to grow stronger, why don’t we just grind them up and scatter them all over the world before they get stronger?]

“I know.”

I lightly rubbed Kramuta’s core.

“In this way.”

Fondant.

I threw a wooden box into the river as I was riding down the river in a boat.

The river was quite deep.

The depth was probably about 10m, and it is a depth that most people cannot go down without permission.

I want to throw it somewhere like the Mariana Trench, but rather than that, I sprinkle Min Sena’s fingers ‘roughly anywhere’ to the extent that it’s so annoying to find that even I can’t find it.

And some in another.

It is planted in a place where humans cannot access it.

Right here.

“Stop, champion.”

As soon as I entered the forest along the river, I saw people aiming arrows at me from the trees.

“No matter how undertaker you are, you cannot enter the forest with a demonic sword.”

“It’s been a while, guardian of the forest.”

“…Don’t pretend to be friendly. I have ears to hear through the human world.”

The elf on top of the tree glared at me with sharp eyes and fiddled with the bow.

“Are you a demon? Or have you fallen into a demon? Or are you the one who wants to become the next demon king?”

“Neither way. I swear to the goddess. I’m just trying to get rid of the threat to this world before I return to Earth.”

“…Mirror of Truth!”

The elf used magic to pull out a mirror in front of me.

“…Hmm. To speak only the truth even after becoming the owner of a demonic sword. It seems there is a dark truth that we don’t know about.”

“It’s not that dark. I just want to get rid of bad girls from this world and leave.”

The guardian of the forest came down from the tree and landed lightly on top of my boat.

“It’s been a while. Elphidia.”

“…I won’t accept a handshake. Instead, let me ask you this one thing.”

Elphidia squatted down opposite me, clenching her fists.

“How did my husband die?”

“You hit the devil’s horn with an arrow and pierced the devil’s abdomen with three arrows.”

“How did he die?”

“… Together with Sir Gehendra, an orc who was treated like a bad friend, the two of them fought the demon king’s magic head-on and oxidized fiercely.”

“……Thank you. I knew he died fighting, but I still wanted to hear from someone who fought alongside me in the ‘real’ way.”

Elphidia smiled bitterly and pointed above her.

“Three days ago, the female warriors sent a request for support. Undertaker became the owner of the demonic sword and went crazy, so if you run away to the Elven Forest, please let me know.”

“…They are careful.”

“So. By the way, didn’t you know that my husband went to fight with you while requesting cooperation from the elves?”

Elphidia twisted one corner of her mouth.

“The prince of the elves escaped the forest without anyone knowing and died fighting the demon lord. But how do those b*tches know that my love is still alive? Well… It’s because they never fought. Human lies will never tell us It doesn’t work.”

Elphidia held out one of her hands to me.

“…The elves welcome Lord Undertaker. So why did you come to the Elven Forest? If you ask for it, I will risk my life to protect it. The world’s hero.”

“I want you to seal something other than me.”

I pulled out one remaining box.

“Is this…?”

“A crappy wrist. Only his middle finger is left.”

“…Good stuff.”

Kwak.

I shook hands with Elphidia.

“Welcome back to the elven forest. Real hero.”
