I Am The Last Villainess He Has To Kill

Chapter 60 – Take Me

Bella now grinned and gritted her teeth and looked back at them slowly.

“Just shut up when I’m still saying things nice. I’m going to the human world now, xx.”

“No!”

“If you are dissatisfied, shall I just kill you? Then, I don’t think there will be any complaints.”

At that moment, Talam shouted at her with a slightly trembling voice as if he had been waiting for this moment, “De-demons who have fallen into the human world cannot be accepted as the Demon King!”

Everyone glanced at Talam in surprise.

“Hey! Are you going to start a rebellion now?”

Bella had not yet absorbed all of the Demon King’s power, so if they killed her, the hibernating Demon King would wake up and create a successor again. Then, she recalled the words Kiehl’s had a while ago.

“Right… xx, we need to clear this up before we go to the human realm.”

All of the insects from the Talam unit flocked to the barrier. In addition, it was also a sight she really hated.

“In the first place, if you had done what I was told, you wouldn’t have had such a hard time.”

No matter how she was the Demon King, the general couldn’t be killed recklessly, so she left him alone.

She never imagined that he would climb up like this and make such presumptuous meddling. Even though they had a huge justification, Bella had no idea what happened two hundred years ago… An incident where one half-demon entered the demon realm and turned everything upside down.

“We will not accept you as the Demon King!”

Dry tears fell on the anger she had been holding back, and Bella’s eyes grew red. From the moment she was possessed by this role until now, she never wanted to be the Demon King.

“Xx, I’m going to kill them all.”

The anger she had been holding back erupted like a volcano erupting. Bella’s large wings spread behind her back, and the wind blew fiercely around her.

The wind caused Kiehl to fall behind backwards, scarring his face though Bella didn’t notice.

“Young, young master. Don’t make any noise.”

Pur, who was guarding the front of the villa, covered Kiehl’s mouth and his wounds with both hands. And, whether she had come before they knew it, Iwer looked around and asked Pur a small question.

“Ah… Are the Princess’s eyes wide open?”

“Shh,” she said and sneaked into the villa with a low posture.

After a strong wind blew all the way into the villa, it seemed to be quiet outside. The next moment, Pur cautiously raised her head.

The sky was dyed red in the distance.

“Phew… Thank god. The Princess must have gone to kill the ones in front h first!”

“Ah. I wanted to see it more.”

“Would you like to go take a look when it calms down a bit? The time when the Princess slaughters is the prettiest!”

“Okay, good.”

Kiehl, on the other hand, only let out a sigh loudly.

Jenkins told him to be so careful. Still, he was able to make contact with the human world, taking advantage of Bella’s absence. Since he couldn’t use his magic, so he opened the magic tool that Rinne had brought.

‘Will this work…?’

Fortunately, the magic tool worked by creating light.

“Rinne. Are you there?”

“Oh, my gosh. This connected the world.”

She tried several times in the human world, but she never dreamed of connecting the demon world and the human world.

“With the permission from the Demon King, can I call this my invention?”

“Rinne, that doesn’t matter now. Is Jen nearby?”

There was the sound of something breaking over the radio, and Jenkins shouted.

“Hey! How can you wake people up with your feet? I told you not to wake me up even if there’s a radio call!”

“Grandpa Jen, Kiehl called.”

“…Young Master?”

Soon, Kiehl heard a rustling sound behind him. Meanwhile, Pur and Iwer were also concentrating on the radio before turning their heads to the source of the sound.

“…Why are you here?”

Zanbar was watching the radio, covering his mouth with that big hand.

“Rinne, find Rosanne first.”

“Rosanne…? Why her?”

Kiehl thought Bella wanted to die just like the story. He thought that if he gave her hope and showed happiness, she would want to live again. However, Bella’s behavior was different from the one Kiehl knew… Becoming the Emperor wasn’t the only thing he was meant to be.

— “No, if he found me while having a relationship with Rosanne…”

She was clearly communicating with something through the black object he saw as a child.

— “He has a different fate.”

…And, the fate that she kept talking about it.

A manuscript written by Bella… That was probably talking about Rosanne. Among the numerous hypotheses he had put forward, the one he wanted to deny the most was the one that fitted the puzzle piece as if it had the most resemblance.

Kiehl said to Rinne, who was bewildered.

“I think we will need her for a while.”

“Oh… Okay. I’ll talk to Rio.”

“First, let Rosanne know who I am and ask her to think about whether to cooperate or not.”

If possible, it seemed that Rosanne would be relieved to stand by Kiehl’s side.

“And, Jenkins.”

“…Yes?”

Jenkins replied vaguely as if Kiehl’s resolute command was unfamiliar to him and fell into sentimentality.

“As I feared, Bella… she’s a little…”

“Our princess has started a bloody purge!”

Instead of Kiehl, who couldn’t even say ‘crazy,’ Pur said it.

“To what extent?”

“I don’t know if you ask like that.”

Although Kiehl had hoped Pur would continue to explain, she seemed to have no idea.

“The Princess wanted to keep killing Tallam, so she must have been very angry.”

Then, Zanbar behind him answered instead.

“….”

On the radio, Jenkins didn’t say anything.

When everyone was unable to intervene in this ambiguous atmosphere, Rinnee, who had no knowledge of the relationship, luckily took the lead.

“Kiehl, I’ll be honest. I’ve been doing calculations with Grandpa Jen, but the more the Demon King is in the Demon Realm, the stronger her magic seems to be.”

“…So? Can’t she be summoned?”

Kiehl actually didn’t care if he was here… If he was next to Bella. Nonetheless, Bella, whom he had seen for several days, wanted to go to the human world.

“Young Master, I heard that the Miss has found a way to suppress her magic. Do you know what it is?”

“…Yes.”

“Now’s probably the time to release the most magic. Did I explain the faucet?”

“….”

“If she usually uses a small amount of water in the bowl, the current Miss would be just flipping the bowl over.”

Kiehl clenched the holy sword in his hand.

“When all of the lady’s vessel is emptied, there is no choice but to restrain, and we can open the summoning circle.”

“…I’m sorry. Because I am not yet an Archmage.”

If even Rinne was acknowledging her own limitations, it meant that there was no other way. It was because she was a person who would keep holding on until she did anything.

“…How long does it take to summon?”

* * *

After a while, a bloody smell swept through the wind and stabbed the tip of their nose, even though it was a short distance away.

“Once the Princess is back to her senses, how about coming back then?”

Unlike Iwer, who insisted on retreating strategically, Kiehl spoke firmly, “Nope. I don’t know how long it will take for Rinne to prepare for summoning again. Now’s your chance.”

“Master, is it really possible?”

“…I should do it.”

Then, ignorant Pur, brightly cheered for Kiehl.

“Take a good shot! Young Master, don’t die!”

“Hey, is the Miss going to kill the Young Master?”

“The Princess can’t remember when she kills.”

“When the summoning circle opens, I’ll run right away! Until then, hold on!”

At that, Kiehl left behind their unseemly cheers and slowly took his foot off. A large amount of magical power was swirling in the air, and from afar, he could see Bella dancing, taking out her murderous energy one by one.

‘…Can I handle it?’

As he got closer, one step at a time, countless thoughts and emotions became dissonant and strained him. Kiehl’s chest feels cold, as if there is a hole in it. Just like the days when he was desperately looking for Bella.

The emotions he thought it would be nice just to meet her were swept away, and greed grew.

As he crossed the mountain, he saw another mountain. When he found a mountain range with no end in sight, he could not say anything.

‘I haven’t even crossed a small hill yet.’

While numerous difficulties lay beneath his feet, not one of them was solved. In addition, he was pushed down together as the current led her. He couldn’t even get Bella’s heart, wanting to go through it together.

* * *

The moon in charge of the night of the demon realm was terribly blue.

Bella sometimes thought that the big moon drives people crazy. The moon, which occupied half of the sky, chased and strangled her wherever she went. It stimulated her nature as a demon until the blue moon looked red.

It had been fourteen years since she possessed the demon in the novel. As with her anxiety, she was quite addicted to the setting. She felt a catharsis as she took the lives of cockroaches she wanted so much to kill one by one.

‘Yes, all pests must be eradicated.’

Even the screams of death could no longer be heard.

Even the demons who deliberately transformed into humanoids, all of them twisted her heart…

It wasn’t even a rebellion. It was mere defiance, Bella’s unilateral massacre was what was left to them.

After twisting Talam’s heart, who had survived to the end, she brought a smile to her lips. Even though she had formed a mountain of corpses, the more Bella used her power, the more desperately the bottom of her desire was exposed.

“Not enough…”

This desire was not satisfied… Like her empty heart, it was always empty and thirsty. Then, she listened quietly to the sound of life approaching between her, expecting a cruel play.

“Ah… Is there anything else to kill…”

Her mind was hazy, like a dream.

She smiled as she watched the sunlight slowly approaching her strangely. All of a sudden, her whole body was dyed red. Bella raised her eyes slightly before opening her eyes, staring at Kiehl approaching without focus.

Tens of thousands of thoughts ran through Kiehl as he saw that image.

‘It wasn’t something I could handle…’

He never once thought Bella was suited to be the Demon King. However, her black hair and her red eyes fluttering in the wind looked cruel enough to bring goosebumps all over his body.

Kiehl gripped the holy sword and moved closer to her.

Bella raised her hand, smelling the wound on his cheek. She wiped the cheek and sipped the dripping blood, and smiled strangely. Behind her was a blue moon shining on her black wings.

The first time he saw her, she gazed at him so lovingly.

“Bella.”

…It would be crazy to say that even this cruel figure was beautiful.

It was when no thoughts or plans worked. He placed his hand on Bella’s face as if possessed. When she tried to put her nails on his neck, it seemed that it would be enough even if he died at her hands as it is now.

“Take me.”

He simply bowed his head, expressing his madness.
