chapter 13
13 – #013 Let’s cut and chop.
One.
The warrior’s body can only be damaged with the power of the demon king.
Two.
It is impossible for even the same hero to damage the body itself.
Therefore, now that the demon king is extinct, the way to get rid of the hero is to secure and attack the items that have the demon king’s energy-mana remaining.
Just like now.
Slowly!
I swung the magic sword wide and cut off my hand.
The back of the hand and fingers were cut off at once.
Blood did not flow.
Because a large amount of blood has already been drained.
Min Sena’s hand was no different from a sculpture, and I couldn’t damage Min Sena’s hand any more even if I swung her magic sword.
It’s not a matter of ability.
Because it is a matter of efficiency.
“Ah, damn it. This is so inefficient.”
After I retrieved the sword, I checked the state of magic felt inside the sword.
“Kramuta. How many more times can I swing it?”
[It depends on how much you wield it. If you set your mind to it, you can use up all the remaining magic energy, and if you save it, you can use it for over 10 years, right?]
“Does demonic energy decrease when dealing with non-heroes?”
[Of course. Magi doesn’t discriminate between heroes and humans in this world.]
After revealing my true heart, Kramuta actively cooperated with me.
[Based on the mana you used to cut your femme fatale wrists, would you have 30 left?]
Just like now, you can learn more about the state of the demonic sword, Kramuta.
Enough to let go.
“Damn it, there’s not enough Magi.”
[If that’s the case, why didn’t you leave Magi here earlier? I will bring it to the Demon King.]
“Are you crazy? We couldn’t beat the demon king with the demonic sword. The demon king who gave away his weapons in the first place is an asshole. And did you think I would need this right now?”
I can’t argue why there is no magic left in the demonic sword.
“They sealed it like this because they couldn’t destroy the sword after breaking it. If they could break it, they would destroy it right away.”
Humankind barely managed to seal the demonic sword with our comrades risking their lives to the best of their ability.
“And give it to the devil? It’s an oil fountain.”
[Huh. It’s sarcastic Who seriously talked like that?]
If it were the remaining Magi and Nabal and the sealing failed, we might all be dead.
Because the demon king was a slaughterer who killed all non-fiends and did not work with reason.
-Eh, Demon King! I will surrender! Please save my life, kuhh…?! Why, why…?
– Humans kill. There are no exceptions for warriors and those who surrender. Regardless of gender and age, all human beings should dry the seeds.
After sending the demon sword to the demon king for today’s work, killing the demon king and eliminating the warriors with the remaining demon sword?
Where would such nonsense be?
Just write it as it is.
“Is there any way to recover demonic energy?”
[There is a way to absorb other demons. But there’s no way humanity would have left such a thing, right? I heard that the demon castle was also destroyed? Where do you say the item with the power of the Demon King is?]
“Tsk.”
As Kramuta said, there is a way to recover, but there is no way to recover.
The demon castle was destroyed, and the demon king died.
I don’t know if there is a magic stone in which the demon king has stored his mana, but there are only four things in the world that contain magic.
Four sealed weapons, including the demon sword Kramuta.
That and even that is just the power left by the demon king, and it is not something that can be recovered anywhere.
“I have no choice but to obtain demonic energy from another demonic sword. I can only pray that the demonic energy remains in the weapons left behind by the other 4 Heavenly Kings.”
The magic sword can no longer be used recklessly.
If you use it recklessly, you may not be able to use it properly when you need to cut it down or cut the hero into pieces.
“I should only use the magic sword when it’s really important. Once I’m done using it…It’s not my main weapon, so it’s useless.”
A master sword is a master sword, but if it becomes the same as a normal sword that cannot harm the body of a warrior, there is no reason to use a demonic sword.
[Hey. You’re not going to throw me away just because I’ve run out of mana, right? Yes?]
“Looking at you.”
[You have to see what you’re doing! What have I disturbed you so far?]
“You killed close to ten warriors. You, yourself.”
I pressed my thumb firmly against Kramuta’s core.
“Just because those women are beggars, I’m not going to forgive you or the other Demon King’s army officers or anything like that. All right? You’re just a tool I’m trying to use.”
[…Huh. Either way ‘Cause I’m just using you just disappear After we regain our bodies and are freed from the demonic sword in a true sense, we will form the Demon King Army again.]
“Anyway.”
I only need to take the person I love with me.
“I don’t care if you all join hands with her and try to destroy her world. As long as I don’t interfere with her leaving for her original world, or bringing her back to this world. “
[Enough. Calling a madman like you back into this world? In that case, it would be best to prevent the existence of another world from coming over so that the connection between worlds will never be established again.]
“Please, I sincerely hope you will. After everything is over, let’s just leave each other with bad luck.”
[Really? If we’re going to conquer the world, won’t you just come back and make a fuss?]
“I have nothing to do with you conquering the world. Do I look like a hero who saved the world and will work for the world for the rest of my life?”
[If not, I’m glad.]
Whether this world perishes or not, I will return to Earth and never look at this world again.
Isn’t that irresponsible?
What is truly irresponsible is the goddess who called us into this world.
Now that you’ve defeated the Demon King, you should take care of the rest.
I cleaned up the poop, but I can’t even wipe the poop.
[So what are you going to do with that cut out? Where are you going to throw the beasts as fertilizer?]
Kramuta pointed to the hand that had been cut into five pieces.
Four fingers except for the middle finger.
And only the middle hand left.
“That’s a good idea.”
[Are you okay? If the monster eats it, there won’t be any traces left. Everything will be digested well in the stomach.]
“If there is even one monster left.”
[…What is the flame of the Pandemonium?]
“The saintess took the holy water she blessed and extinguished it all.”
[All? Hey, it’s poisonous, poisonous.]
“Humans are a species that can do anything to survive. In order to pierce the demon king’s ‘invincible shield’, he found all 108 pieces, broke them, and charged the demon king.”
Many people died in the process.
Since it’s 108 pieces, it’s just a matter of destroying one per person, but that was impossible.
The four survivors, including the femme fatale Minsena, would not have even seen the Demon King’s sculpture.
“I’d like to cut it in 1cm increments, but I can’t even do that. Tsk.”
If you cut it with a magic sword and cut it further, you won’t be able to cut what you really need to cut.
An obvious dilemma.
[Then what do you want to do? It’s embarrassing to keep carrying that. How are you going to throw it on the ground?]
“You should throw it away. Instead, it’s not just about throwing it away.”
However, for this situation, I decided to mobilize the method by recalling a scene from a movie I saw in my memory, that is, on Earth.
“Suddenly, the time has come for him to come…Just right. Kramut, don’t say a word from now on.”
[Okay. If I don’t cooperate with you, I won’t be able to escape this demon sword, so I’ll cooperate as much as possible.]
I hid Kramuta in a cloth and soon met someone who knocked roughly.
“It’s been a while. Meister.”
“…Huh.”
A middle-aged man who is two inches shorter than me.
It’s a dwarf.
He has a shaggy beard and his hair is scattered. He is a man I have a really deep relationship with.
A man who made weapons for the warriors.
“Meister Lachdamas. Long time no see.”
I buried this man’s brother.
On the day the Goddess Church was attacked once, this man lost his brother and I lost 8 of my comrades.
Now he has come down to the southern continent and lives like this, but his skills are still intact.
“I have a favor to ask of you.”
“Feel free to call me Lark. You deserve it. So what’s going on? Why did you come to visit me when I was living quietly in this town? You haven’t been in a big mess lately, have you?”
“It’s a frame.”
First of all, instigation is met with instigation.
“Goddess said. Only me and one woman can go back.”
This is true.
“I think the other three women must have been cursed by the demon king.”
“What?”
“Things I can’t say casually. However, if there’s one thing I can tell you, I can’t resist when the four of them team up and try to kill me. All of my colleagues who will be on my side died in the fight against the demon lord. Because.”
“…So? What I want to ask of you is it something like ‘smelting a demonic sword’? Huh? I heard you released a demonic sword.”
“It’s true that the demonic sword was released, but what I want to ask of Meister is not the smelting of the demonic sword. What I want to ask of you is this.”
I opened the box, and Lachdamas gave a disgusted expression when he saw the contents of the box – severed fingers and hands.
“Could this be the hand of a femme fatale?”
“Yes. Her hand cut off from her.”
“What are you going to do with this?
“I’m using a demon sword right now. Of course, I’m not cursed by the demon king or anything like that.”
I spread my arms out to the side.
“Former King of the Dwarf Country. Please help me. I am innocent.”
“Undertaker… What do you want to do?”
“Before I leave, I will split the cursed warriors into 108 pieces and scatter them all over the world. It’s not just scattering…”
I pretended to pour something into the box.
“…To make it hard to find, pour molten iron, harden it, and drop it into the sea.”
A warrior.
Cut.
Cut to pieces.
Hitting a tool.
