The Demon King’s Seal Has Been Broken

16 – Predestined Despair [Despair] – 5

Bill couldn’t understand the situation now.

In addition to the holy sword technique he had put all his energy into, the elf also launched a technique of considerable power.

And those attacks were even amplified by the saintess.

Truly terrifying power, such an attack was never light.

But, why the hell is the result like this?

“Who are you? Why is Jim unsealed like this now?”

The demon king in front of me didn’t even get a single scratch even though he was properly hit by such an attack.

Besides, as if something had just happened, he didn’t care about the attack at all.

In this situation where the demon king, who should have been defeated, did not fall down and looked at the warrior party without any wounds, the warrior party had no choice but to remain silent for a while.

‘… uh… what should I do?’

And in that silence, a lot of thoughts went through the hero Bill’s head.

Despite pouring all the attacks, the demon king was still intact, and he was exuding a creepy aura.

No matter how you think about it, this was kind of weird.

Originally, it wouldn’t make sense for even the demon king to endure such an attack.

When looking at the demon king based on ancient texts, this was nonsense.

A truly unexpected situation, his head was stained with fear.

‘Should I… run away?’

Besides, his instincts were telling him to get out of here right now.

If you do it wrong, you could really die.

If you can’t escape, ask for forgiveness from the demon king in front of you.

An intuition called instinct commanded him to surrender without end.

Right now, pride is not important at all…

I shouted to think of a way to survive somehow while I had time to think about that.

But…

‘No… It’s just an illusion.’

He suppressed his instincts.

I decided to follow my reason rather than follow my instincts.

‘Aren’t you the demon king who gets sealed by Ragta anyway?’

If he didn’t know the opponent, if the demon king was a really strong opponent, he would have run away, but Bill doesn’t know this demon king. He knows that the Demon King is weak.

If you think about it carefully, this demon king was the demon king who was once sealed by the hero of the previous generation.

It was also for a warrior weaker than himself called Lagra.

Is there any need to be afraid of such a demon king?

When it came to common sense, there was no need to be afraid.

I’m sure it won’t be that strong.

‘It’s just my mood…’

So the emotions felt in instinct were not so important.

What was needed now was to act based on cool reason, theory and truth.

So Bill suppressed his emotions and thought as rationally as possible.

‘I must have made a mistake with the timing…’

If you think about it, there was a high possibility that the attack didn’t work because the timing to break the seal wasn’t right for a moment.

If it weren’t for that in the first place, there wouldn’t be a single wound like that.

It makes no sense that there is not a single wound with this level of power.

So it made a lot more sense to think like Bill thinks than to think that he is fine after taking the attack.

I just made a mistake with the timing and the attack didn’t work.

Thinking it was just a coincidence, he rationalized the situation.

“Don’t be afraid, everyone. It’s the demon king who was once sealed anyway. We can win enough.”

And when I thought that, I felt that my fear was somehow relieved.

Bill shouted “It’s okay” to the frightened party members.

Think rationally. It’s just that the emotions you feel right now are just emotions.

In countless crises, he always survived with cool judgment, so his cool judgment was so important to him.

He trusted his judgment and told the party to trust his judgment.

“Demon King. We are a party of warriors who have come to unseal and kill you.”

So I aimed my sword at the demon king while hiding the fear that was revealed as much as possible.

Like a warrior, they courageously told the creepy demon king who they were.

“Hmm… It’s a party of warriors who came to kill Jim… Is that so? That’s why I opened the seal on Jim.”

Bill erases fear in an instant and confronts the Demon King quite courageously.

Seeing Bill like that, the devil seemed to understand the situation and responded that it was quite interesting.

“If not, where is the hero to defeat Jim?”

However, Bill’s answer was still not a very good answer to the devil.

The demon king had no choice but to look around and ask Bill.

Because the hero who sealed her, the hero she knew, was nowhere to be seen.

Her hero was Rag. A warriors party without such a rag was a warriors party without a hero, which was a very strange situation for her.

“I am a warrior. Don’t you know when you see it?”

In response to her question, Bill proudly said that he was a warrior.

By showing the holy sword he was holding, this holy sword, he proved that he was a warrior.

“Put…”

And the demon king heard Bill’s answer.

“Ahahahahaha.”

To those words, the demon king reciprocated with laughter.

The eerie laughter resounding from the silent demon castle…

It was just laughter, but the air seemed to settle and fear took over.

“Why are you laughing?”

While laughter and silent fear spread, Bill asked the Demon King.

What’s so funny about gripping the holy sword…

I had no choice but to ask.

“It’s been a long time since a clown dared to joke with Jim. But don’t worry too much, Jim isn’t narrow-minded enough to get mad at a clown’s jokes.”

Looking at Bill like that, the demon king replied as if he was still having fun.

Apparently, the demon lord treats Bill’s words lightly.

“I’m bluffing…”

Seeing such a demon king, Bill’s feeling was somehow ignored, and for some reason he felt very dirty…

was not greatly agitated.

Because the Demon King is undoubtedly bluffing himself…

It was a car that I just felt so intuition.

‘Yeah… I’m doing that because it’s a 1 vs 4 situation.’

Looking at the situation, I could think of it simply.

In the first place, the Demon King lost a 1 vs 1 match to Rag and was sealed.

In such a situation, a stronger warrior than Rag has arrived, and three more colleagues have also been brought.

This situation was an overwhelmingly unfavorable situation for the Demon King.

Besides, having just woken up from the seal, he was obviously unable to use his magic evenly yet.

In that situation, if he showed a very relaxed appearance… I had no choice but to think of it as bluffing.

‘I’m sure he’s trying to get out of this situation somehow.’

You can’t see it, but you’ll definitely be impatient.

It was obvious that he was trying to shake up the warrior party by bluffing somehow.

‘I can’t give it time.’

So it was my turn to act swiftly.

No matter how weak he was, a demon king was a demon king, and Bill was not the type to give opportunities.

He made up his mind and prepared to fight the demon king again.

“Guys. Get ready! The warriors of the previous generation sealed this demon king alone. So we’re an opponent that we can defeat.”

Bill encourages the party members.

He inspired the party members based on facts and told them to wake up.

“Yeah…! That… you don’t have to be so scared.”

“Let’s do that. It’s okay. I’m the Mage Tower Lord…”

“Yes! Ha… I’ll try my best…”

And just like that, a lot of party members came back.

The warrior party members, who had been terrified until just now and couldn’t do anything, realized that they had to fight in this situation.

He courageously prepared to fight the demon king.

They were also quite a warrior party.

Although it is a warrior party that was formed less than a week ago.

As much as I came to face the Demon King, I had my own determination.

They weren’t warriors who would give up just because they were scared.

“Come on. Don’t give me a chance. I’ll push you from now on.”

Now that the party of warriors has come to their senses, they must fight in earnest.

The command of Bill, who was the commander of the knights.

Under that command, the party members moved in perfect order.

Bill drew his holy sword, Diane reloaded her bow, Clara prayed with her hands together, and Derek raised his staff and began to recite a spell.

Each of them prepared what they could do, what they had to do, and what they had to do.

Because that was the way to defeat the Demon King.

“I will defeat the demon king from now on.”

Throwing the party members who were each doing their own thing on their backs, Bill took off.

To cut down and kill the Demon King.

Raising the holy sword high, he struck down the demon king’s head.

But…

I must have taken it down…

“Uh…? No?”

The demon king did not exist in the trail of Bill’s sword.

The demon king literally disappeared in an instant, and the party members were taken aback for a moment.

The party members started looking for the missing demon king here and there.

“Uh… over there!!! Back…! Watch your back!!!”

In the meantime, the first to notice the location of the Demon King was the elf, Diane.

Looking at the demon king, she shouted to the wizard, Derek, in a very urgent voice, to run away immediately.

“uh…?”

However, that cry was already too late.

In an instant, the demon king appeared behind Derek, the party wizard, and grabbed Derek’s head and shoulders.

It’s hot…!

I didn’t even have time to scream.

What came instead of screams was a sound that should never be heard by humans.

“Hee… Hee…!?”

After the sound ended, Derek couldn’t turn back.

The body and head, which were divided into two, fell to the floor separately with a slight time difference.

The terrible sight froze the party members all at once.

“Kkeuk.”

To such a party member, the demon king seemed to be having fun, and sent a mockery filled with madness and destruction.

With that laugh, the despair of the planned warrior party began.
