I Ended My Engagement With My Childhood Friend, the Hero

14 – Warrior Party after Alan left (5) – Demon King

“What… What the hell?”

I saw some unbelievable words in the newspaper.

It was that a party of five warriors set out to defeat the demon king.

No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t understand this passage at all.

Why do 5 people… Go to the devil without recruiting?

Thinking about it again, I really don’t understand.

‘How strong is the demon king…’

In the past, when I first met the demon king, I was really in despair at the overwhelming power of the demon king.

A demon so great that it was incomparable to the four heavenly kings, a powerful being that could never be matched by humans alone, that was the existence of the demon king.

Because of that, there was nothing I could do but run away with my comrades.

Even when I had the hero’s blessing, it was something I couldn’t handle alone.

Because I was the one who knew the strength of the demon king, I really chose my party members based on their skills alone.

Only looking at one ‘strength’, I gathered a criminal, a thief, a yomi bird fighter, a lack of practical experience, or a wizard.

If the dealer is strong, there is even a chance of defeating the demon king…

But… I feel like it’s going to be in vain.

No matter how strong a party member is…

If there are no party members to block in front of you, you will have no choice but to be swept away one by one.

That was the situation of the warrior party now.

It was a perfect situation to be swept away.

‘Maybe… Don’t these guys know how strong the demon king is…?’

I felt a sense of uneasiness.

Somehow… I wonder if the party members will mistake the current demon king for another demon king…

If that’s the case, this behavior is quite understandable.

Because the current warrior party is much stronger than the warrior party of the past.

If you look at the standard now, even 5 people can catch the demon king of the past.

However, the current demon king is different.

He is a very dangerous guy.

I definitely remember telling this story to my party members…

‘What devil do you meet? Isn’t it a dream?’

It was a party member who said this, so I didn’t explain further…

I didn’t know it would turn out like this now.

I never thought I’d organize a party like this.

‘Isn’t this wrong?’

For a moment, I am filled with anxious thoughts.

Imagine the warrior party being wiped out by the demon king…

Even if that’s not the case, it’s really hard to recover from damage, and just a few people barely survive…

Very, very disturbing thoughts kept popping up.

‘No… I don’t think so. Everyone must have an idea.’

But I struggled to shake my head.

It’s obviously an act I don’t understand, but I still believe in the party members.

Perhaps it’s something I don’t know about.

Because of that, they must have evaluated that it didn’t matter at all even if there were 5 of them.

And in fact, even with just one tank, it was clear that the warrior party would be able to easily catch the demon king.

I’ll say it again, because the current warrior party is really only monsters.

If they had an environment where they could use a little bit of strength, even if they were the strongest demon kings, we would have had a much better advantage.

‘It’s a famous warrior’s party…!’

To be honest, I’m worried a lot, but now there’s nothing I can say I’m worried about.

All I can do is trust my colleagues, so I had to trust them now.

Because so many things depend on the warrior party.

Not only the lives of the warrior party, but the lives of all of us depend on it.

If you don’t trust them, no one will.

Because the warrior’s party is the hope of not only me, but of all mankind.

“Sir… What’s wrong?”

“Nothing.”

Is it because I’ve been reading the newspaper for a long time?

Leeden came to his side and began asking anxiously.

I told Riden that it was okay, covered the newspaper, tore off the clothes to use properly as a bandage, wrapped them around Liden’s ankle, and set out to clear the dungeon again.

Now I just have to do my job.

“Here… The Demon King…”

The warrior party soon arrived at the Devil’s Castle…

The castle boasted a truly terrifying size even when viewed from a distance, but seeing the castle up close, I was even more surprised by its much larger scale.

Looking at it, I felt like I was overwhelmed by the scale of the castle.

But there was no need to be scared already.

Because the real one was the demon lord in here.

Because I was right before I had to face the demon king.

“Here, let Elina use her magic to get over it.”

Anyway, I had to go over this tall wall.

It was Nera who came up with the idea.

Nera entrusted this task to Elina, the magician of the party.

With one of her magics, the warrior party can teleport right in front of the castle wall.

It was so easy.

“Hmm… Maybe?”

And Elina didn’t really say no to that either.

She raised her wand and cast her spell.

For her, this was a piece of cake.

But…

“No. I will.”

The party’s fighter, Andros, tried to block Elina.

“Haaap…!”

And then he broke the wall of the demon castle with his fist.

The thick walls of the Demon Castle collapsed by truly terrifying superpowers.

Looking at that wall, it makes me realize that Andros, who was usually ignored by the warriors’ party, is still a member of the warriors’ party.

“How is it? Aren’t I cool? Nera?”

Of course, as long as you don’t open your mouth.

Soon after, Andros approached Nera and started flirting.

As expected, if you show that figure, everything you want to see again disappears.

“Ehhh… Ok. Well done.”

Nera sighed and praised him.

Because I bowed down and begged, I bowed.

“Everyone. From now on, unnecessary chatter is prohibited.”

Anyway, now it was really the way to enter the inside of the castle.

Hero Rina slightly warned the other party members.

From now on, the real demon king was right in front of me.

She cautioned and she herself went into the big hole that Andros had drilled first.

Raina entered the hole that Andros drilled first.

“Okay…”

“Okay.”

The party members nodded their heads with a quiet reply to Rania’s words.

The party members followed Rania and entered.

‘Now finally… You’re the Demon King.’

Raina, who entered the castle of the demon king like that, felt her own emotions rise.

Now, this long, long journey is finally over.

I will become a victor on this journey.

If she did that, it was obvious that her name would be left behind as her own strongest hero ever.

She really wanted that.

Because only her strength was the truth for her.

Because now I have it completely in my hands.

Raina and her party members advance slowly like that.

The warrior party continued to enter the castle.

As we entered, we started looking for the Demon King.

“By the way…Why are you so cold?”

“I see…”

However, the demon king could not see well.

No, rather, the inside of the demon castle was very clean.

I didn’t see a single monster.

Isn’t it because I found the wrong street number somehow? I heard such anxiety from the party members, but…

Fortunately, it didn’t seem like that.

“Stop everything.”

After walking for a while, we arrived at the throne of the demon castle, and hundreds of elite members of the demon army were gathered under the throne.

It is not an exaggeration to say that each and every one of them is an elite soldier.

The soldiers were facing the warrior party under the throne.

“Prepare for battle.”

Raina saw the soldiers and poised her to fight.

Perhaps these are the final forces of the Demon King’s Army.

It was just a matter of defeating it.

“Okay let’s go.”

As Rina got into her stance, her party members followed her into her stance.

“The enemy in front of me is roughly 200 elite. I thought I was going to put an end to it here.”

It seemed like he knew the plan behind sending the elite like this.

It must be to drain the strength of the warrior party right here and now.

The warrior party was not in a situation where they could barely be pushed back by those things.

Because the current warrior party is strong.

“Everybody get ready for battle.”

Raina drew her sword and confronted the elite demons.

Andros stood beside her.

And from behind, Miner looked at the situation, and Elina and Nera were on edge for rear support.

The situation where the elite of the Demon King’s army and the hero’s party are confronting is like that.

In that situation, it was Raina who tried to stop the battle, but…

The battle did not happen.

“…!!!?”

The elites of the demon tribe all of a sudden lowered their heads in unison.

Then they began to clear a path from the throne to the center.

I don’t understand why you’re doing this, but…

Looking closely, there was a being sitting on a throne.

That being rose from the throne and walked towards the warrior party while being saluted by the demons.

Another one.

It looked like a beautiful woman with horns.

She looked like a pretty woman with her dark hair and red eyes in a black dress, but…

“Ugh… What is…?”

The party members doubted their senses for a moment.

Contrary to her super pretty appearance…

The demonic woman felt so strong.

She was so strong that she was incomparable to any demons she had ever encountered.

The flesh of the skin is about to tear.

A chilling fear that makes your nerves scream.

“Everyone… Be vigilant. It’s the Demon King.”

I felt the warrior party intuition.

That the devil is the devil.
