Episode 9. Bewitching the Donmisae (4)

“Ah! Ella Todia, congratulations on your return to the battlefield.”

A knight standing in front of the castle approached as soon as he saw Ella. She snorted her snort.

“…… Who is celebrating returning to the battlefield?”

“Congratulations to us. Doesn’t it feel different just by Elatodia-sama being here?”

“Ehh, so.”

Ella glances at me as she replies. To myself, it is the gaze as if I am that kind of person.

I pretended not to see and put my foot on the stairs that led up to the wall.

“Hey. If you go up there on your own—”

“No, that person is fine.”

Restraining her knight, Ella follows me.

“Who is that?”

“Mrs. Prause.”

“Ah… …. He is the one who believes only in strength and does crazy things in the fortress empire.”

What a mess. What’s wrong with my image

I know it’s all self-employed, but it was a bit unfair.

“Wow, did you bring the little ones here? How far are you really going to fall…….”

“Those kids look like little kids at first glance, but they are very strong kids.”

As expected, the way you see things is different when you reach S rank.

I let the conversation flow between the two and went up the wall.

Wheein.

A strong wind blows as soon as you climb up. The black hair that covered his forehead was tousled. So did the other warriors.

The knights on the wall were checking the manapo.

“That’s the Demon World… ….”

Ariel clenched her fists and gritted her teeth.

It’s been a while since I’ve seen her collapsed expression.

Well, few beings can maintain their sanity knowing that there is an entity out there that has taken the life of a lover they have not forgotten for decades.

“After coming all the way to the front, it is a very unpleasant place.”

“I feel like my body is shaking.”

“Looks like I need to purify demons. Is there a way?”

Looking at the floating dark purple aura, Maria asked.

Unfortunately, it was impossible to completely purify the demon as long as the demon king was alive.

“There is no way other than killing the King of the Demon Realm. However, inside the walls here, anti-demon magic is installed, so demons cannot enter.”

I said while watching the dark purple mist floating in the air that couldn’t get over this way.

I stretch out my hand and squeeze the black mist. There was no feeling.

Once I knew there would be no problem if I went over there.

The warriors, Ariel, and Ella all went through a series of processes.

No one showed any abnormal symptoms. Even if it did appear, there was no problem with the purification stone.

“The Cartrod Mine Zone is over there.”

Looking at the foreground, he looked at the artificially cut off forest and said. If you look closely, you can see several broken buildings.

Just as they were about to start excavating the mine area, they were attacked and seemed to have been pushed this far.

“Are you sure you want to go to Cart Road? There is a black dragon-“

“I know. I have already heard the explanation, and I came to know from the beginning.”

“What… ….”

“Tonight, the black dragon disappears.”

I proudly declared and moved towards the stairs.

“Open the gates.”

“Prause! Please stop. No matter how strong you are, the black dragon is a demon that even Todia-nim couldn’t defeat.”

“Stop talking and open it. Before that thing comes in and turns this place into a mess. Or there is a way to destroy it from my side. What are you going to do?”

I said with a vengeful spirit. The sound of the sword and scabbard rubbing against each other echoes quietly.

The knight engages in a short war of nerves with me, then closes his eyes tightly.

“…… From the moment you step outside the walls, your life is not guaranteed. Are you really okay?”

“I don’t know who you are worried about. Open it up.”

“And if you provoke the black dragon and cause damage to our side, you will have to take responsibility for it.”

Because it’s a responsibility, I feel burdened for nothing.

I nodded. Then the knight descends the stairs before me.

I suddenly feel nervous when I stand in front of the castle gate.

When this door opened, it was the start of survival.

You’ll probably have to deal with a lot of monsters just to get to the black dragon.

But don’t worry.

If this world is the same as the game, the level of the heroes will be the same as I assume.

Even if not, I had a relic. At least you won’t die

[Prause, how is your condition?]

“No problem.”

[Do you plan to get help from the children to catch the black dragon like the wolf monster last time?]

“It can’t be.”

Apart from other superficial monsters, I had to deal with the Black Dragon.

In that way, I was able to plant the perception that I am a strong person in the future.

And in the border castle here, surveillance magic was installed to detect the movement of monsters.

To put it simply, it was CCTV. If my performance is contained in it, no one will be able to dispute my power anymore.

“I will take on the black dragon alone.”

“Yes?”

Everyone who heard me in front of the gates let out a bewildered noise almost simultaneously.

“Prause-sama, no matter how much Prause-nim you are, the black dragon…….”

“It’s okay.”

There was a way to counter him. You just need to eat good bread.

“Ariel assist me.”

“I know, but you can’t use magic that directly twists causation unless you’re a contractor.”

“Don’t worry. What you have to do is simple.”

“The three of you and Ella open the way to the black dragon, and prevent other monsters from interfering with the black dragon.”

This was the perfect mission that wasn’t burdensome for the kids who were on their first field trip.

“Master, are you okay? What can I do to help…….”

“Do you think I will lose?”

The warriors shake their heads before I finish my words. I really don’t have any doubts about my abilities.

“Yes. I am… No, we will win again.”

Even if I say this, I’m not the one fighting.

Still, did you have a strategy of your own?

[It’s been a while since I killed a demon.]

I hear Phasma’s words in my ears.

“I see. I can finally keep my promise.”

[But my friend, what I really want is not simply to kill demons.]

“I know.”

What he really wants is not to destroy the demons, but to kill Peremus.

“If you kill demons, you will meet them someday.”

[Yes. I guess so.]

When the time comes, will Phasma be able to let go of all attachments?

…… I was about to ask.

Letting go of attachment means that there is no reason to remain in this world.

“We will open the gates!”

Coo goo goo.

The castle gate opens.

“I will go as you said. You have to move as quickly as possible, at least until I get close to you. Got it?”

“Yes!”

I drew my first sword.

[Equipped with 「Unshakable Vengeance」.]

[You can temporarily use the skill 「Ghost」.]

“「Ghost」.”

The ghost of Phasma permeated my body.

“Let’s go.”

* * *

“The wolves are coming! Tina.”

Tina, who was dashing side by side, jumped out like a shot and cut the heads of five monster wolves in an instant.

Stepping on the clots of blood scattered on the floor.

“Take care of the ogre on the left. Iris. Maria take care of the skeleton troops coming from the right.”

Iris and Maria leave the ranks at the same time.

A bat rushes over Iris’s head as she approaches the ogre.

Quang!

However, he couldn’t pierce Iris’s sword. Rather, she slashes the bat she hit with her sword.

I turned my head after watching the bizarre sight of the aura sword cutting through a bat several times thicker than before.

That’s the end.

It wasn’t long before the ogre’s head fell limply to the floor.

“Processed.”

Iris joins the ranks.

Meanwhile, Maria, who was dealing with the skeleton troops on the other side, had her hands on the ground.

“「Sinkhole」.”

At her words, a huge hole formed under the skeleton troops’ feet. The monsters that couldn’t overcome gravity fell to the ground in an instant.

The moment I let go of my hand, the ground filled the hole like closing a mouth.

“It was taken care of.”

Informing the completion of the mission, they naturally permeated into the ranks.

It’s a 10-minute drive from here to the mine area.

“Keep this speed and advance while defeating monsters.”

The deeper we go, the more monsters gather towards us. It was to hear the sound of battle and determine our location.

But who are the people I bring with me?

They were warriors who hated demons.

Despite the increasing number of monsters rushing in, the movement speed did not decrease at all.

Now, even if you don’t give instructions, you will leave the ranks and return at the right timing.

In particular, how loudly Tina fought, she was bathing in blood every time she went and came back.

“These kids…… I thought it was strong, but what is it?”

“…… They are my disciples.”

If you say you’re a disciple, the question won’t come out.

After running for a while, she entered a minefield.

“From now on, I will deal with the black dragon. Stay away from this place as much as possible and keep hunting the monsters you see. I’ll finish it in five minutes.”

“Yes!”

The hero and Ella answer.

“Ariel, come with me.”

“Okay.”

After stepping into the mine area, the number of monsters rapidly decreased, and soon, not a single one was visible.

This is due to the habits of demons, and demons basically hate trespassing on their territory.

So when someone entered his territory, he accepted it as a ‘challenge’, so there could be no monsters in the mine area where the black dragon settled.

[Until there. Stop approaching me, insignificant one.]

I stopped and looked up at the towering mountain.

I noticed that it was a ‘transmission’ skill from the voice that could be clearly heard even from a considerable distance.

[Human beings are indeed animals with poor learning abilities. Last time so many people lost their lives, yet again, lives are wasted in vain.]

“Whoa… ….”

I took a deep breath. I put a lot of force on my shoulder and then released it.

“Are you ready for phasma?”

“It was promoted.”

“Just right.”

I took a step forward.

“I’m going to eat your territory now, so get out of here! Damn you reptile!”

I shouted, holding my middle finger high.

Originally, fighting starts with provocation.

[Dare! Dare to the subject of lowly human beings!!]

A black object leaps from the top of the mountain. The flow of the atmosphere changed with the huge flapping of its wings.

Kuaaa!

The dragon’s roar echoed in the sky. The air trembles and the ground shakes.

[I will exterminate you as of today, humans!]

I pulled out the second sword while covering one ear.

[Equipped with [Glass that swallows greed].]

[The skill [Dynamic] Can be used three times a day.]

A sword with a glass blade glistened in the moonlight.

Now, let’s try it.
