The NTR Hero Knelt Down to the Demon King

Chapter 43

43 – Alright… let’s start harvesting

After treatment and examination of the hero,

Coming out of the barracks where he was lying, Rebecca and the soldiers began to listen to the surgeon’s story with expressions of concern.

“As a result of the examination, the spear wound was not a big problem. Even so, it’s likely that the reason why you can’t come to consciousness is because you used too much mana all at once. Don’t worry, you’ll wake up soon enough.”

“That… is that so?”

“Whoa… ”

Fortunately, Rebecca and her colleagues express relief at the level of diagnosis, which is said to be better with a little rest.

However, apart from this fact, at this moment, their feelings of sorry for the hero were already deep in their hearts.

‘Even by overdoing it, we… ‘

‘There have been many longevity so far, but no one threw their bodies to protect their subordinates this thoroughly.’

‘I heard that one day people will meet someone they will serve as their master… but is that really a hero?’

So, the demon soldiers began to reevaluate the hero instead of worrying about him and feeling ill.

Of course, it was still too early to conclude as it was the first battle, but it was clear that at least the prejudices he had in terms of being human had been diluted a lot.

After all the people guarding me had finally left, I opened my eyes and looked around.

‘Fortunately, I didn’t make the atmosphere awkward by suddenly standing up.’

Of course, strictly speaking, I could pass that awkwardness in moderation, but because the subordinate demons acted so urgently, I was swept away by the atmosphere without even realizing it.

However, apart from this difficult part,

Anyway, this reminded me of the fact that I had successfully completed all the goals I was set to pursue, and I began to feel a strong sense of accomplishment.

‘Unexpectedly, thanks to them recognizing me as the Demon King, the situation seems to flow more smoothly. If this happens, those guys will surely start to go mad in an even more exciting way to catch this demon lord.’

To be honest, the previous raid was enough for me to capture Antioch.

Of the more than 7,000 troops in Antioch, those present there were only a few hundred.

Through his exceptional fighting power, I knew that the guy who threw the spear was the chief protecting this place.

If he and all of his subordinates were eliminated, it was clear that the command system would collapse and the defenders would collapse in disarray.

‘If that happened, perhaps Samson and other hardline generals would have had the demons’ flags hung on the walls of Antioch within today… ‘

The battle, which was expected to take about two to three days, was completed in just one day… A situation that could have been completed in half a day.

But,

Such cool and refreshing results.

I knew very well that it was something I had to avoid as much as possible in my current position.

‘It would be troublesome if Anti-Ok fell off already. It’s difficult to drag on for too long, but at least for today… No matter how late it is, I have to persevere until tomorrow to be able to achieve my goal.’

At first glance, the army of demons seemed to be doing their best to occupy Antioch.

This was actually what Samson and his generals who were here thought so, and that was also the conclusion reached at the previous meeting.

However…

At this moment, out of all the people belonging to the Demon King’s Army

Only I knew the story behind it.

No matter what you do, the role of the troops here is only a decoy,

My role is to give ‘hope’ to the enemy…

As a bonus, it was enough to infuse the feeling of ‘desire’.

The ‘real’ isn’t me anyway.

Elias and our ‘real’ will run it.

‘Now then, hurry up and come quickly, because this Demon King is lying injured here. Get rid of every last person possible and go all-in here.’

Timothy, the territory of demons occupied by the tribal union.

General Memnon, who is in charge of the temporary lord of the place, could not hide his excitement as he heard the report of the Antioch messenger who ran in front of him.

“What… what? Did that demon king really appear in Antioch?”

“yes! General, according to the news I heard right before I left, the demon king was hit by General Parisect’s spear and even suffered serious injuries.”

“Oh oh… You mean General Parisect?”

Memnon couldn’t hide his excitement at the messenger’s words.

Regarding this, the manager standing next to him spoke in a voice full of urgency.

“General Memnon, then, can’t we just stay like this? If that statement is true, now would be the best chance to end this damn war.”

“Well! I think so too. As the supply situation worsened as it was, it was an ice sheet to live on every day, but I didn’t expect an opportunity like this to arise.”

After Rob was attacked, Memnon’s troops were barely able to eat enough food in Antioch.

To them, the news that the enemy leader, the Demon King, had appeared and was even injured felt like a golden rope coming down from a dangerous situation.

“Isn’t it a war that will end as long as the head of the enemy is cut off anyway?”

“As long as we subdue the demon lord with all our might, there will be no reason to worry about food anymore.”

“General, please give the order, the warden will go and take the head of the demon king!”

At the opportunity that began to appear in the car, which was already on edge due to hunger and tight living, the people there began to shout in an urgent voice with half-blind eyes.

And it was the same with Memnon, who had the responsibility to lead them.

“There is no need for that! I will go out on my own. Now that this has happened, there is no reason to waste time by sending only some troops, I will lead the entire army in Timothy and go to Antioch!”

“yes! General!”

“I will obey the will of the general!”

General Memnon declares with a firm will and the underlying greed.

Accordingly, the soldiers there also obeyed his order with burning desire.

“From here to Antioch, it’s only a day’s journey if you hurry. If you ride your horse all night, you should be able to reach it by tomorrow.”

“First of all, let’s lead the fast cavalry and move, wouldn’t it be troublesome if Antioch is occupied in the meantime?”

“Good idea. Anyway, as long as the demon king himself participated, they wouldn’t be able to pay attention to areas other than Antioch. I will arrive as soon as possible and focus on beating the demon king’s neck!”

Memnon and his soldiers immediately started moving with all available troops.

Although the move was so hasty that the castle’s defense and other back-ends were messy, nevertheless, Memnon and his soldiers could not afford to care about this fact.

A war where everything ends when the demon king is captured anyway.

Their idea was to focus all their energy on the visible goal for now.

And at this moment…

Rеаd at ոоbӏеmtӏ.соm

Many lords throughout the occupied lands of the Demon Kingdom thought similarly to Memnon’s legion, and began to march with the entire army.

The desire to become a hero of the continent by beating the head of an injured demon king.

In addition, the thought that this golden opportunity should not be missed now that it is difficult to hold out for a long time due to the deteriorating supply situation anyway captured the hearts of many people…

As a result, a huge army of 40,000 troops, and in fact the main force of the tribal union, left their occupied area empty and headed to Antioch.

Of course, there were also prudent people who carefully watched the situation and decided to silently defend their territory.

However, the reality was that there were not that many people who made such an unpredictable choice at this point in time when it was difficult to even endure quietly due to the worsening supply situation.

and this moment.

In the dark, she was watching all these situations with a hawk’s eye.

Elisha, one of the 4 Heavenly Kings of the Demon King’s Guard

Everything is going according to plan…

No, for some reason, they started to feel deep excitement about this situation, which is progressing so hotly and well beyond what they expected.

‘I thought it would definitely succeed as it was a strategy that the hero came up with and Mama materialized, but… No matter how it is, didn’t this attract aggro too well?’

If things turned out like this, it was a situation that made me worry that Samson and the warrior might be in danger.

However, the fact that things are progressing as planned is obviously a very good thing from the perspective of the Demon Kingdom.

Immediately after grasping the situation, Elisa quickly returned to her ‘base’ and immediately began to report the current situation.

“okay? Are you saying that the Tribal Alliance has started moving as planned?”

“yes! That’s right!”

“It looks like our ploy is working. If not, please start working right away.”

Elias speaks with a cold smile on his lips.

Regarding this,

She spoke to her subordinates in a calm, yet hopeful voice.

“okay… It should be. The fruit must be ripe… Let’s start harvesting in earnest.”

With those words, she pulls out the sword she was wearing…

Looking at the deep purple black air standing in it,
