The Cute Master Was Actually the Black Demon King

77 – Beltia

“That, Ashera… …. Are you not following me?”

“…… Why?”

Towards Orca, who asked in an awkward tone, White tilted his head once.

His gaze turned to the sky behind him for a moment, but Orca opened his mouth again as if he didn’t notice.

“No, yes. I thought you were a strong wizard. I thought it would be of great help if he went with me…….”

After interrupting her once, she let out a silly laugh.

“Ahahahaha… …. Was it too speculative? I asked because he must have been the person who raised the wizard you are, and at the same time seems to have a deep relationship with you…….”

Orca stretched her words out, and White brushed her chin with a moment of thought.

Deep relationship, D.

I could have done it if I wanted to deny it, but there didn’t seem to be any reason to do so.

“Well, that is not wrong.”

Saying yes with just a light nod of her head, White continued her steps.

Flinch.

…… Without seeing the unsteady movement of Orca’s body in response to her calm affirmation.

“…… Hey, go with me.”

“…… ?”

White tilted her head slightly at the sight of the orca following behind her, quickly picking up her energy, as if she was falling behind.

I wonder if it was his own illusion that his cheeks seemed strangely swollen.

Feeling her doubts, she saw no reason to dig in, so White continued her steps.

Even so, what she remembered was her own teacher, Asherah.

White’s blue eyes turned to a certain part of the sky.

“… ….”

She wouldn’t have felt it the other day.

If she was still in the 7th circle, she would not have felt a sense of difference or incongruity.

Those things were now caught in my senses.

f*ck!

A confident smile crossed White’s lips.

The gaze was focused only on a single point in the air.

‘…… Huhu, it’s quite good.’

And, of course, Ashera, who was floating in the air at that point, was also looking down at White.

A gentle smile hung on her lips as if she was feeling good, and the corners of her eyes were also elegantly curved.

As if she was happy with her student’s growth, she let out a blank laugh as if she was feeling some complex and subtle emotions at the same time.

…… In fact, until now, there was still no doubt about it.

──Circle 8.

‘…… I thought I could climb it.’

However, it was not speculation that this radical growth was meant.

Over time, calmly, with 100% of your help.

I thought that by doing that, I would spend a considerable amount of time getting to the 8th circle…….

…… Her disciple reached the level of her archmage with only his own abilities.

That’s a bit unfortunate, Ashera thought.

It would have been nice if she could have been of some help to her apprentice, at least a little bit.

If a disciple who reached the 8th circle on his own without the help of a teacher was proud, he was proud, but it was not without a slight sense of regret.

Yeah, but it is.

‘…… Well, are good things good?’

In the end, the conclusion is drawn that way.

She lightly brushed off her slight disappointment, and smiled brightly at White.

“Because he is a great disciple.”

Ashera looked down at White with a very warm gaze, but soon.

“…… Ah, come to think of it, I was using that stealth spell.”

She belatedly realized that although she could feel his own presence, she couldn’t even read her expression.

“I’m not stupid…… ?”

She smiled broadly at White and waved her hand. She was ashamed of herself, and Ashera gently twisted her hair around her back, blushing.

‘Hmm.’

But even that was something White couldn’t figure out.

‘Do you have any intention of revealing yourself?’

At Ashera’s presence, still maintaining her stealth magic, White nodded her head in understanding.

It wasn’t something she couldn’t understand.

First of all, it should not have been known that she was involved in killing the 12 demon lords.

That’s because she’d be in more trouble than getting discovered that she was a member of the Empire.

‘…… Shah Sar must not be aware of her master’s presence.’

Once, narrowing her eyes, White slowly raised her tension.

…… In fact, her innermost heart is that she doesn’t want Ashera to come along, but what can I do.

As long as she made up her mind to do so, she did not have the strength to stop herself.

She wanted to respect her will, and in fact, unless she was in a very dangerous situation, she would just watch from a distance.

Because of the existence of the ‘agreement’, she can’t be deeply involved anyway.

“… ….”

…… Anyway, if that’s the case, she doesn’t want the 12 demon lords to find out about her existence.

‘…… In the end, I have no choice but to do well.’

Awesome.

Once, White gritted his teeth.

It was also to maintain a moderate tension, and at the same time, it was also to strengthen the will a little more.

‘I’m afraid they’ll get caught.’

If Asherah’s existence is discovered by them, it will be very complicated.

…… As for what happened before the return, White himself did not know everything.

But if there’s one thing you know for sure, it’s that at this point, Ashera’s existence hasn’t been discovered by the 12 demon lords.

…… I had no idea what purpose they had or what plans they had.

However, I knew at least that Ashera had been used before returning to that ‘plan’.

It was also the failure of the 12 demon lords, but at the same time, it was something that should not happen again for him.

…… Yeah, really.

Until he gained enough strength to annihilate all 12 demon lords.

…… She needed to hide her presence as long as she could.

The interior of White, which seemed to embrace the sea, began to contain the bloody intent to kill quietly.

“Orca, there is one thing to keep in mind.”

“…… What?”

White said in a serious tone, and Orca tilted her head slightly toward her White side.

As she tugged her hair behind her ears and assumed her listening posture, White spoke her mouth again, slightly satisfied.

“I don’t know what Louis Vampir really is. She knows what kind of ‘color’ her identity is as a demon king, or what abilities she has.”

All he really knows is that he is the demon king who stole the body of a boy named Louis Vampir.

That’s why it will be more difficult than the two previous battles with the Demon King.

“Your life may be in danger, and you don’t know if I can fully protect you in an emergency… ….”

So, if you want to go back, now is your last chance.

I tried to say that, but.

“That’s it.”

“… ….”

White had no choice but to keep her mouth shut at Orca’s expression as her expression hardened coldly.

It wasn’t like I was suddenly weighed down by her momentum, but…….

“I have already made my decision. I don’t need you to protect me, White. Even if you brought me this far, it’s as if I owe you grace.”

“… ….”

In Orca’s unwavering red eyes, in the restrained murderous intent contained within.

White let out a chuckle once.

‘…… Was it worrying for nothing?’

While muttering that to himself, White nodded lightly.

“If you are, then I don’t need to say anything more.”

“Ahahahaha, of course.”

Letting out a laugh once in a while, Orca slapped her fist on White’s shoulder to relieve her slightly heavy aura.

“Come on, White. Now come back and sleep and have nothing to do?”

…… Therefore.

The corner of her mouth was gently pulled up, drawing a bright smile on her face.

“…… Let’s go to kill the Demon King.”

“… ….”

Soon Orca finished her words in a steady voice.

White nodded her head as well, with a gentle smile on her face.

The gazes of White and Orca were directed straight ahead at the same time as if they had promised.

…… All you see is a village.

It was a village called ‘Beltia’, located at the end of the Marquis of Vampir.

‘…… If Lucifer’s information is accurate, there must be Louis Vampir around here.’

White began to scan her everywhere with sharp eyes.

Even so, she did not stop her steps.

Leaving her minimal tension alone, White slowly builds up her mana.

From noble mtl dot com

A radiance of blue light began to form on both of his hands.

“…… Ah.”

Then, within.

I wonder if I forgot something.

White tilted her head slightly, casting her gaze at the orca.

Orca tilted her head slightly at him.

“Do you have anything to say?”

“… ….”

At the Orca who asked, White subtly frowned.

‘…… I don’t think I’ll be in such a dangerous situation.’

But, just in case.

It wouldn’t be bad to say something in advance.

“Orca.”

“Huh?”

White leaned her body toward Orca, who was still tilting her head.

And towards Orca, who flinched at her own actions.

“──.”

Precisely right next to her ear, White muttered something short.

“…… Got it? I hope you understand.”

“What, what…… ?”

And at that unknown word, Orca blinked her eyes in embarrassment.

“You, you. I’m serious…… ?”

With her eyes shaking mercilessly, Orca softly blushed her cheeks.

I wonder if it was blushing caused by shame, or was it caused by other factors?

I didn’t know that, but White was just calm.

“The important thing is that the battle doesn’t continue until that happens, but just in case.”

That’s why she added that she hinted a little.

Leaving behind the Orca, who still had a flushed face, White started walking away again.

“…… Go, go together!”

And after that, Orca followed after him, trying to somehow chase after him while blushing.

…… It was the time when the sun was slowly disappearing beyond the horizon.

The dark silence began to settle down quietly and chillily.
