Sairin Yuusha no Fukushuu Hanashi

- Think about it, it was a long time.

Killed at Demon King Castle, since that day.

I've killed a lot of people who betrayed me.

Marwin, Bertoga, Olivia, Dionis, George, Lily, Marx and Lewsas.

And now the last one is standing in front of me.

- Lucifina Emilior.

I'm the one you trusted the most.

Of the brave party, the last one.

It was long. It was really long.

But the cause of thirty years ago also ends today.

Let it end.

"Mr. Io, you ignored me before and went to Mr. Elfiszark, didn't you? I'm totally scratched. I can't believe Io ignored me..."

"... oh. Instead, I'm going to make sure I deal with you today."

"Oh, hehe. Glad to hear it, Mr. Itsuki. More than Mr. Elphiszark today, look at me, right?

It's an exchange that's about to throw up backwards.

Knowing I'm uncomfortable, Lucifina seems to have fun with Nitanita.

…………

Turn your gaze to the gear Lucifina is wearing.

That pure white armor looked familiar.

It is one of the finest magic grants (magic items) owned by the Kingdom and named 'Heavenly Armor'.

It should have had the effect of increasing the physical ability, magic power, defense, and magic resistance of the equipper.

It has a breaking effect, although it does not extend to "The Sky Sword".

From what I've worn in that armor, I can see that Lucifina is also coming with a battle.

"Nevertheless... you two seem more tired than I thought. Looks like the demons down there worked harder than I thought. Mr. Lefiese, you were building up more strength than I thought."

Lucifina spying on this one and spitting white words.

Sticky speech makes me more irritable.

Still, I guess the reason I didn't move in a detour was because I'd been prepared beforehand.

You can't beat this guy unless you're calm.

"Oh, speaking of which, Mr. Elfiszark. Did you know? The daughter of someone who was your subordinate is now acting for the Demon King."

Turn your gaze toward Elfi and Lucifina says happily.

"I say Lefiese Gregoria. She said she felt so sad that she didn't have a father. Considering how Mr. Lefiese has lived so far after losing his family, you get zero tears out of sympathy..."

Lucifina deliberately moisturizes the eyes, rubbing the gossip and the eye area.

Tied to the junction, Elfi stares at Lucifina with a cold look, not one movement.

"Do you have anything to say to my daughter who lost her father because of your lack of clarity?

"- None"

Without disturbing Lucifina's incitement, Elfi cut it off with clarity.

I guess I realized to that rinsy voice that Lucifina is not upset either.

Bored, he exhaled a great deal.

"Boring people. I've told you before, Mr. Io. What do you like so much about this guy? It's not incitement or anything, it's a pure question. See, Io, you liked me, didn't you? Why did you saddle this guy?

"... don't talk to Bella Bella, it's unpleasant. I know your soul and guts. That's how you buy time and wait for us to drain in the junction, isn't it?

While doing this, I feel very little magic coming out of my body.

Elphi, influenced by the junction against the Demon Nation, should be draining faster than I am.

It's no use talking like this.

"... nothing, I don't mean that. You say terrible things."

"Don't make me laugh. That's a big tie, dude. How long have you been able to use magic like this?

"From the beginning. Didn't you just notice? Heh heh, Mr. Io is blunt."

- From the 'first'.

"... oh well"

It's a waste of time.

I could see Elfi giving in.

I, too, invest in the Proof of Bravery to activate Mindset Magic.

It was the moment we tried to make a move at the same time.

"- If you move, I'll kill the subordinates below."

Lucifina said so, frustrating her nose.

At the same time as that word, the sound of pussy and fingers ringing.

Shortly afterwards, footage was shown inside the room.

The footage is projected from the sphere, in Lucifina's hands.

I guess they use some kind of magic grant (magic item).

What appeared was the sight of demons that I had never seen lined up without a herd.

"It's a collection of demons that I've collected over the years. There are also many ferocious ancient species that are now said to be extinct. These kids are strong inside, and if there's a village or a city, they'll eat and scatter easily."

Seeing this sight reminds me.

Stopped by on the road to help Elfi, a village of distortions.

It was a demon I had never seen attacking that village.

"Well, it's a problem. Where are these kids now?

"... Around the Great Aldrin Forest"

You're absolutely right.

Lucifina's face, who talks nonchalantly, has a grin of abuse.

I didn't have to ask, I knew what this guy was thinking.

"With one of my signals, those kids will eat and vandalize the Great Forest, won't they? You both know what I'm talking about?

"You're taking the Subhumans hostage, aren't you?... the outer roads."

Elphi throws up so that she can't hide her disgust in Lucifina, who speaks with pleasure.

"Exactly. Depending on what you do, a lot of villagers will die. There will be no total annihilation, as they are subordinates of the boulder, and perhaps most of the collection will be returned. But still... I'm pretty sure there's gonna be a death toll for every hundred people."

There are so many demons of ancient species gathered together.

Lucifina is right, there will be a considerable number of dead people.

…………

"Oops."

As I turned my gaze outside the labyrinth, Lucifina snapped her fingers again.

At that point, the strength of the junction covering the labyrinth rises.

It's a level of strength that we can't break easily.

"I have trouble getting away with weird sorcery, like before, so I was allowed to cover my surroundings more strictly, with a junction"

…………

"This junction, in addition to the junction I set up, uses the junction that is equipped for the void labyrinth. The sturdiness is definitely because I confirmed it in" The Sky Sword ""

Niyaniya and Lucifina, who continue to speak like a shake.

"Well, if you really want to break the line and go help the people below, I suggest you take the labyrinth nucleus first and unbind the labyrinth. That would also reduce the hardness of the junction and make it easier to break"

Do you want to try? and Lucifina tilting her neck.

I understand that I can't take it lightly on my way here.

This void labyrinth will fall downstairs on the spot once the labyrinth nucleus is taken.

"Oh, you seem to already know. Yes, you're right!! If you take the labyrinth nucleus, this labyrinth will fall!! If such a large object falls, the Great Forest will be outrageous!! HAHAHAHAHAHA!! Just imagine, my chest hurts and I can't help it!!"

If we move, the demons will attack the Great Forest.

If we want to help the Great Forest being attacked, we have to take the labyrinth nucleus and unbind it.

But a void labyrinth that has lost its labyrinth nucleus falls into the Great Forest.

Naturally, Lucifina will attack us in the meantime.

That is.

Lucifina's right, we can't help the hostages no matter what.

If you want to help Sepul or Ku, Lucifina will have to kill you.

"... that's a farce you're kidding"

With the exception of Elfi, Lucifina will be the one who understands my sweetness the most.

So I guess you took the means of being a hostage.

To make sure you kill me.

"... the Four Heavens King can hear me. I can't believe you can't win by fighting from the front."

"Because I don't value things like glory, pride, or correctness, that kind of lopsidedness. Look, if you care about that stuff, like some former demon king, it could be sealed!

But I lifted my index finger, as Lucifina suggested.

"If you abandon the people below... you can fight me from the front, right?

I'm fine, Lucifina said.

"You who wanted peace in the world abandon many to our cuteness!! That would be the most pleasant!? In case you get a chance from here, even if you can live home, your way of life that truncated a large number of people will be screwed big here!! hehe, hahahahahahahahahahaha!!"

With that said, Lucifina understands.

I won't abandon the villagers.

That's why Lucifina's attention has been right for Elfi since earlier.

May the former demon king abandon and attack the hostages against my will.

…………

Zach, and.

Only for a moment, I saw noise in the footage being shown.

That's why I tell Lucifina.

"That magic grant (magic item), it's handy"

"... Yes?

Lucifina hardens into my words when I'm out of place.

Never mind, I kept my word.

"You're letting the demons downstairs have magic grants that are paired with that, aren't you? It's convenient, isn't it? If it had been more popular, things would have gotten easier."

"... what are you talking about so long? No way, you think I'm sayin 'the hatchet? You still think I'm kind to you, don't you?

Lucifina has a strange look on her face as she drops her gaze on the magic grant at hand.

"No. You'll move the demons, just like I said."

"... Yep. So don't move. I will kill you now. It's okay. If you don't move, I won't kill the people down there."

It's a lie, I thought.

This guy is sure, he doesn't keep his word.

Probably move the demons laughing after shaking so hard that we can't move.

"So it's time to end it"

Lucifina puts up "The Sky Sword".

"- Goodbye, Mr. Io."

That said, it was the moment Lucifina tried to unleash the slaughter.

――――

Elfi's on the move.

Silently, he shoots an ash blast into Lucifina.

"... ugh."

Stop firing slaughter and Lucifina breaks both ash blasts.

Explosive flames split into two parts, making a roar.

Remaining intact, Lucifina laughed sarcastically.

"Ha, I was. You're a former king, aren't you? It must have been a daily tea meal to trump a few people for more people. But you did something stupid."

…………

"I don't care about the subpeople. You can move, but Mr. Io is not..."

- No, it's not.

For a moment, I was slashing Lucifina.

"- Huh!?"

The jade knife was accepted by the 'Heavenly Sword'.

But in an unexpected attack, Lucifina falls ill.

At that moment, I slapped my fist all over Lucifina's forehead.

"Heh..."

Louder and louder, Lucifina blows over the center of the room.

Lucifina pierces the ground with the 'Heavenly Sword', kills momentum in the air, and lands on the ground.

He glances at me uncomfortably as I suppress the forehead I hit him with.

"... surprised. I can't believe you're attacking me by abandoning my hostages."

Out of consternation, or out of that face, the room is gone.

But you got back on track along the way, and the disgusting grin came back on that look again.

"... you said such sweet and crap! That hero Amatsu!! How dare you abandon the innocent subhuman people with our own cuteness!! HAHAHAHAHA!! It's the highest!!"

We are quietly staring at Lucifina, who laughs with her belly.

Isn't it funny that we're not moving at all?

"... then I'll show you now. What miserable eyes you will see the hostages you abandon."

That said, Lucifina rings her fingers with her pussy.

I think of the sight of the demons ravaging the Great Forest, with a tearing smile -

"............ what?

The demons didn't make it faint.

It doesn't even work with Pickle without listening to Lucifina's instructions.

As soon as (...), unnaturally (...).

"Why...?

"It's a handy magic grant, but did you make sure it was working properly?

"... ugh."

Ba and I look this way, Lucifina staring at me.

"Did you do something?... No, it can't be. It's all made to be held by demons who are particularly strong among the ancient species. There's no way the artists can interfere without me noticing!!"

If it's enough to interfere, I can do it.

But it's impossible to do it without Lucifina noticing.

Even Elfi, that would be the same.

"Oh, not us"

"We...? So who the hell did it?"

With a frustrating look, the moment Lucifina said so,

"- It's me!!"

All the footage showed the girl with pink hair - Idler.

"Hey, Io. And nice to meet you, Elphiszark. The plan is going well."

The video switched around.

What we see is the sight of massive demons enclosed in massive conjunctions.

The immobile demons are being attacked by sub-warriors, starting with the man-dog breed (Wardog) from afar.

"What is it, this..."

- Lucifina took hostages to kill me.

Sweet, I was ready in advance so I wouldn't be able to help.

And it was the same thing I was preparing for.

I know my weaknesses. I picked the hand this guy takes in advance.

"We knew you were hiding demons around the Great Forest before we got here."

I couldn't even predict if it was a bunch of demons or an army of demons, but I knew Lucifina was setting something up around the Great Forest.

That's why I asked Idler to look into it so Lucifina wouldn't notice.

As a result, a large number of demons were found hidden within the junction blocking the signs.

And that some of those demons are wearing magic grants (magic items).

From there, we worked out a plan.

To win, not to be taken hostage.

"... stupid, impossible. How can the demons fit into such a bond? If it weren't for my instructions, I'd be trying not to move...!

'That could be it, right? Those demons, when you see me, come after me without shaking your sides. I almost died 20 times or so. But somehow, I was able to push myself into the world. "

Lucifina brought him here because he was a demon, and the measures were easy to take.

Whatever, Idler attracts (...) demons (...).

Using Idler as bait guided the demon.

"You can't possibly be disturbed by magic grants (magic items) and I don't realize it! Plus, we were checking out the Great Forest! It wasn't like I was creating such a bond!!"

'I knew as much as you were watching. So I was covering up the work (...) so they wouldn't notice (...) "

Over the screen, Ni and Idler smile.

Lucifina floats what she says is incredible and retreats to the back of the room.

We made a massive bond so that Lucifina wouldn't notice.

so that the herd of ancient species can be rendered powerless for a period of time.

And I told the Sepules about this.

So that after Idler has sealed the demons into the junction, he can defeat the immobile demons.

'- Oh. And the spy you were letting sneak into the village.' Cause they caught them all. '

"Is...?

"There's nine of us, right? Three half elves, two fairy species (elves), two earth fairies (dwarves), one human dog breed (wardog) and one human cat breed (wardcat). Didn't you? '

"... ugh."

Lucifina opens her eyes to Idler, who breaks her fingers and counts the spies she was in the midst of.

"Who the hell are you!!"

- "Reaper."

Lucifina breathes in its name.

"Reaper... you are. Was it real?"

'Yeah. I'm a super beautiful girl, see, this is it. It's real, isn't it?

"... why does that reaper stand in my way? I heard you were part of the Demon King's Army."

"Vengeance. You have nothing but grudges."

Idler smiles lightly and answers Lucifina's question.

From behind, I hear the roar of demons and the fury of the warriors of the subhuman.

Idler's lack of consciousness means that the demon sweep is progressing fine.

Now you can say that we have almost solved the 'demons that surrounded the village'.

"Well, let's be reapers, even pronouncements of death"

Peachy eyes shot Lucifina across the screen.

- You're talking to me right now, and you're going to die here today. And you won't even go to the post-mortem world '

"... what"

'You know that, right? We're not done dead. When you're ready to die, there's a world you can go to.'

To Idler's words, Lucifina distorted her face in a heartfelt discomfort.

That was the first look of disgust that Lucifina had ever shown since she came here.

"... I'm not expecting anywhere I don't know how to be. You don't know what's going on in a place like this, but it's foolish to expect it."

"Hmm. Then you don't want to go to the Underworld. '

"Yeah. I'm not interested in the underworld or anything like that. You won't even be going. 'Cause I'll always be happy, happy, full of raw."

So Lucifina stares at Idler.

"After cleaning up this place, you will also shake and kill me. That's how much pain you can't go to the Underworld."

"Hino, that's scary."

Idler shudders deliberately into Lucifina, who lifts and declares the 'Heavenly Sword'.

To such an attitude, Lucifina narrowed her eyes softly to see if she felt anything.

"... have you seen me somewhere before?

'No. I've never seen you before, Lucifina Emilior. "

In reply to that in the end, Idler took his gaze off Lucifina.

Turn your face towards me and smile small.

"It's up to you later, Io. Good luck. '

With words of encouragement, the bumps and video were interrupted.

The sphere in Lucifina's hand stopped functioning and lost its brilliance.

The hustle and bustle over the video disappears and silence returns inside the room.

"Apparently, you're on your side again with an unprovoked troublemaker."

Lucifina, who retreated to the back of the room, has the look of a shredded Xing.

The hostages are gone and there is nothing to protect Lucifina at the earliest opportunity.

But we didn't move.

Because I know that's not the end of it.

"But now you don't think I won."

As I affirmed this idea, Lucifina snapped her pussy and fingers.

Using that as a signal, three crosses of human size have moved from the rear of the room to below Lucifina.

- 'Cause we still have hostages.

Lucifina makes her silver eyes look hauntingly brilliant and makes a mockery of her boiling malice.

The three crosses were tied, as Lucifina said, one for each, with a subhuman woman.

Sepul said, it would be the people who went missing in the raid from the void labyrinth.

"I didn't know you were bringing hostages here directly."

"Yes, because I don't see you as sweet as the others. If it's true, your opponent wanted to throw a round at Mr. Orteguia. It's hard not to go either."

For the look on Lucifina's face shaking her neck sideways, for Christ's sake, there was already room back.

I guess it was because I understood that the hostages were still valid for us in an earlier exchange.

You seem to like hostages a lot.

"Yeah, I love it. You can unilaterally strangle your opponent, and besides, you can hunt down your spirit. Because it's a delicious, lovely act twice in one go. If you get a chance, why don't you do it too?

Lucifina affirms the words of Elfi like throwing up and throwing up as a delight.

Hostages.

As a brave party, it was the act Lucifina said she hated the most when she was traveling.

Being cowardly, despicable, knightly, as a warrior, I can remember impeaching him.

"... Hey, Mr. Itsuki. From now on, it's been quiet for a long time. I'm one of the Ten who betrayed you and killed you, aren't I? Turn your hatred toward the comfort of the abomination labyrinth."

Sure, the usual me would have been so exasperated many times to get here.

As hateful as it may have been, he could have vilified Lucifina.

For several years, we have been fighting the Demon King's Army together, if Lucifina was throwing up this dialogue.

"Or are you dressed calmly? If that's the case, it doesn't suit you. You're a fool, sweet, and then you burn your passions with melameras, right? Look," How dare you betray me? "

I see that the elphi on the side is turning a gaze like the one I entrust to this one.

So nod small and gaze at Lucifina.

"... hey. You call the Underworld the Underworld.

"... Yes?

"The underworld has been used for a long time, and it hasn't been used for a long time."

Pickle and Lucifina's eye area cramps.

"… what does that mean?"

I was sure.

With that light you ate after you defeated the Wind Demons, and with your words and deeds so far.

... No.

When I touched Lucifina's bond in the “distorted“ village, I was slightly aware.

And the truth is, thirty years ago, I should have noticed.

"Hey."

I ask.

"- You (...), who (...)?

Lucifina gave me a tearing grin.
