Hero without Blood or Tear

Editor : Nemisis

Hmm?  What a strange girl she is. I really did not mean to insult her honour. But this does not mean that I did not like it.

“What?!”

Fortunately, Caroline did not understand the exact meaning. Though, she seemed to have only sensed that he was trying to insult her.

This woman was basically a princess in the palace, so she was like a blank sheet when it came to that.

“How far are you going to insult me by starting with such a cowardly trap!”

Today was the day when the princess had suffered. Her self-control had long been shattered by the rude words and insults, she had never experienced this in her entire life.

“Is it shameful to tremble? You have a good face.”

“You son of a b*tch!”

Yeah, it’s fine the way you look now.

Caroline had a creepy look on her face.

“Keep your mouth shut! Listening to you makes me feel like a caterpillar is crawling over my skin!”

She has been charging towards me with her long sword. Most of the wounds from the explosion inflicted on the undead had already recovered due to the strength of the undead. I also made the undead charge against her.

“Loyal soldiers! Show your true strength!”

Using his merciless leadership skills, he blew up 120 undeads. Then a new message popped up.

<You have driven many undeads to death beyond death. Now you can get to the second level of merciless leadership skill!>

Of course, I accepted the second level.

<Merciless Leader Skill Level 2! Now, an explosion will occur as the undead are put to death!>

Things have become more brutal. I cannot believe I am even using them as kamikaze bombs. In the meantime, there was a battle going on between Caroline and the 120 undead.

“Ha!”

Every time her sword moved in the flash of light, three or four undeads were split apart. And more than a dozen disappeared in an instant when she used her magic.

This is the case despite the effects of the undead leadership and the merciless leader skill. I was lucky enough to recover the ones that did not die in one blow, and then continued to summon the undead to make up for the deficiency that Caroline caused. I exhausted most of my powers as I  kept summoning the army.

“Commander of the undead! How long will you hide behind them! Coward!”

Caroline’s accusations made me laugh.

“Hahahaha! If someone buries the body, the commander moves the body at his own will. This is the description of this job, how can he be so cowardly!”

Frustrated, Caroline tried to find a breakthrough somehow. But the situation only became more difficult for her. It was because of the undead who were summoned when the second level of merciless leadership skills was activated.

Boom!

An undead exploded the moment he was put to death by Caroline’s sword..

“Hey! What the fuck!”

Caroline was clearly surprised. But this was only the beginning. All the undead she killed began to explode.

Because of that, Caroline appeared at a loss. Her speed dropped drastically as the undead began to multiply at a fast rate and fight.

Thanks to this, the undead that did not die in one shot could be recovered to increase the numbers of undead in the army. Caroline cried out as if she was sick of everything.

“Commander! Do you not run out of mana?!”

“I have enough mana!”

The current situation was in my favor. We would have been pushed back, but the situation changed as the merciless leader skill reached its next level. A strange lull was suddenly created in the rhythm of battle when Caroline became reluctant to wield her sword. I decided to make good use of this opportunity.

“Would you like to have a brief conversation?

“What are you up to?”

“Let’s have a brief talk It’s not a bad offer for you right?”

Caroline seemed to be in a foul temper. She was strong in attacking but still lacking in physical strength. Now that I look at it, it is not enough to call her a part of the demon clan. Her flaw was only noticeable in the second half of the battle , but not in the very beginning.

However, we should not ignore the fact that she has the power of a powerful clan, so it is harder to overpower or kill her like a normal demon.

“What the hell do you want to talk about, Commander?”

“Just listen to what I have to say. In the meantime, we guarantee your safety.”

“I can’t believe it.”

“Believe it or not, it doesn’t matter. All you have to do is take a break and listen, don’t you think?”

I pointed to her wound being regenerated in real time with my finger.

“…okay, do as you please.”

“I’m glad you let me. What I’m going to tell you is an old story.”

Caroline seemed a bit dumbfounded by the old story part, but she stays still for now. Since she’s waiting for her energy to be recovered.

“In the past… 41 years ago to be exact. At that time, the No. 1 demon king was a different figure from the present.”

“I know. Isn’t he a traitor who betrayed our demon clan and had an inside connection with the humans?”

“Yes, I’m sure it’s well known to the demons. His name was Kaimars, who was the No. 1 demon king at that time. This is his story.”

Kaimars is remembered by the demons as a sinner of history.

“It was only because of the special magic he had that enabled him to become the No. 1 demon king in the hierarchy. He had the power which he took from the celestial realm. It was called the awakening ritual.”

It was a secret that only a few number of people knew. Her face changed as she realized it was an important story.

“awakening ritual?”

“Yes, it was a power that absorbed magical powers from the great celestial beings. It’s a great ability that differs from the known magic of this generation.”

“I can’t believe it. I’ve never heard of such magic….”

“Still, the high-ranking demons remember the magic that was practiced. Whether you believe it or not, it’s the truth.”

He said that and then continued to explain.

“Of course the power of the awakening ritual has caused the greed of the other kings. But Kaimars was so strong that they couldn’t even think of any way to bring him down. Then finally, they had a chance. The ritual was a method that brought in the power of the celestial beings, so they finally got that chance when the stars weakened.”

Caroline was now listening with full concentration.

“Once every 100 years, a dark night would come and dim the stars. He’s been hiding this secret for so long, but he was foolish enough to tell his ‘most trusted’ subordinates.”

“Why would he do that?”

“It was because he had a family to protect. Worried about the day he weakened, he asked his brother, King Odgarsh, for help. In fact, this secret was something that could be guessed by those who could read the flow of the stars. Though Odgarsh was not sure, he was able to guess. And so, Odgarsh was even more anxious about the source of this power. Kaimars knew that there was no secret that could be kept eternally, and so he needed a reliable person to say it to.”
