chapter 14
14 – #014 From now on to each other
With the help of the former Dwarf King, Meister Lachdamas-Lark for short, I succeeded in receiving the five iron ingots.
“It’s not just a piece of metal, you bastard. It’s a restraint made of metal that doesn’t corrode even in seawater.”
“Isn’t it corroded by seawater?”
“Yes. Orihalcon.”
“…Isn’t it very expensive?”
“It’s expensive, but what’s the use if you don’t use it? I’m keeping it for a time like this.”
Lark sighed as he burned the tobacco.
“Honestly, I don’t know if I’m doing well right now. I don’t even know if anyone is right. Listening to the stories of people in the world, it seems like you’ve been corrupted by the demon king, but no matter how much I think about it, you’re not that kind of person.”
“If you think I’ve been betrayed later, you can accuse me.”
“What’s the accusation? It’s only my conviction that humans are all the same. All the people in this world, and the people in another world, are all human beings.”
Hatred of humans.
Although I and my colleagues released it, his distrust of humans has not completely disappeared.
“I don’t think everything you say is true. I have eyes for people, and I have a thing called age. You must have deceived me.”
“Yes. That’s right.”
“It’s pretty embarrassing to talk proudly, but it doesn’t matter. In a world where my sister disappeared, what does it matter if it perishes or not?”
Lark let out a blank laugh as if it was okay.
“Whether or not you used me to become the advance guard of the Demon King and destroy the world, I’m just trusting my judgment. I think not accusing you will make me feel better.”
“I don’t know if I’m going to lose billions of money?”
“Is money a big deal? If I can help you, as a warrior, I’d rather help you who are cursed by the demon lord than those who are wandering around like that.”
Lark pointed out.
“That woman, is that it?”
“Yes. We are the women we used to call ‘Trollians’.”
Far away.
An Asian with blond hair and red eyes is commanding people and searching all over the city.
An orange armband was worn on her left arm.
It is not filled by others, but an armband filled by oneself.
“I once thought of her as the leader.”
“I know. He was a leader in your world too?”
“It was just like the class president of the academy we belonged to.”
In other words, it is also called exaggeration.
“It was a very large-scale transformation, and I learned how to control people by exaggerating for a long time. But that didn’t help anything in this world.”
“I ate everything.”
“Yes. There is a saying that is widely used in our world. Do you know who dies first in a war?”
“Incompetent executive?”
“Exactly.”
Since we were talking about that woman, Trollian, it was only natural that he would notice if he noticed something like Lark.
“As for that woman, she said she was exaggerated and studied like a commander and went on to command her, but in the end she ate all of them.”
“Isn’t she a competent commander now?”
“Don’t you know how many colleagues and people have died so far to build up that competence?”
“You’re being sarcastic. hehehe. A woman who has more losses than wins. A woman who annihilated all her allies because of her lack of ability. A woman who annihilated all of her allies in the rear because she couldn’t understand the enemy’s strategy. …My sister’s enemy .”
Lark clenched his fists and let go of his anger.
“I know. It’s not the woman’s direct fault. It’s just that she made a foolish judgment. The enemy’s strategy was a surprise attack on the temple using a teleport, but that woman said the enemy had locked themselves in the fortress and started a siege. I thought it would unfold.”
The reason why Lark’s brother died.
And why so many people died in the temple.
It’s just poor judgment.
The enemies formed a defensive line and cast a bomb drop on the base, but the stupid commander didn’t notice any signs until the enemy dropped it.
“You said that at the time, right? You have to go back immediately. If the enemy is aiming from the rear, there is no answer.”
“It was.”
-If the main base is robbed here, it will be ruined, right? If you continue to sit-in meaninglessly, you have to go back to the rear and buy it!
-What is the basis for saying that? Ha, the RTS you used to play so often? Do you think reality is lol? So what tier are you?
– It has nothing to do with the game, it is purely my judgment after fighting on the battlefield!
-Really? Judging by myself as someone who fought on the battlefield, now is the time to continue the siege. The temple is the safest place. How could the temple be attacked? No wonder, really.
If.
If Trollian had sent troops to the rear at that time, if he had listened to me, the situation would have been very different.
At least the injured warriors who were being treated at the temple wouldn’t have died in droves.
Along with Lark’s younger brother.
“That’s why I’m saying that even though you’ve become the advance guard of the Demon King, I won’t accuse you for the sake of a woman like that.”
“…Thank you.”
“Gratefulness is… You worked hard to defeat the demon lord. And I don’t know what you’ll do from now on, but I hope you continue to suffer. If you become the demon lord and kill me.”
Lark stepped out with a bitter smile.
“Bury me next to my sister. Can you do that much?”
“…You won’t become the Demon King, and you won’t die.”
“Then I’m glad. Khehehehe.”
Lark left.
All that remains is the five Orihalcon sculptures he made.
From the outside, it looks like a lump of copper rather than orichalcon, something cheap that doesn’t seem to have any monetary value.
No one will ever know.
That each of these copper lumps contained the severed fingers of a femme fatale.
“Then…”
Now that I hit the tool, there’s only one thing left.
“I can spray it into the sea halfway through going down south.”
* * *
“Sister, are you really here?”
“That’s right.”
Minsena shot at the woman with a ferocious tone, and the woman waved something similar to a compass.
“You don’t know about my authority?”
“You know. The ability to locate warriors.”
“Yeah. With this, I can find out where the bastard is.”
Trollian, no, ‘Hwang Lian’ pointed out the shiny dots in the compass.
The two green dots are in this city.
The other two are located at the end of the compass, where only direction is indicated.
And the other one.
The ‘red dot’ set as the target is also in this city.
“Is that undertaker really here?!”
“Calm down, lady.”
“Ah… I’m sorry, Your Majesty. I showed you my ugly side.”
“Even when you’re angry, you’re beautiful.”
Emperor Azzan patted Min Senna on the shoulder, looking more possessed than before.
Hwang Lian frowned as if he was disgusted, but soon changed his expression and opened the screen in the compass with his hand.
“It’s definitely around here. It’s hiding somewhere in an inn or something… It’s moving!”
Huang Lian opened the map and shouted to the soldiers.
“No. 1, No. 2, No. 3! Everyone scatters in the direction I directed! Form a siege! Everyone else runs in the direction this guy is and chases him! Execute!”
“”Do it!!””
As soon as Huang Lian’s instructions were given, the soldiers of the empire began to run down the street all at once, holding weapons like chain scythes.
“Lady Senna. My fiancé. I will surely capture the corrupted one for you. Just wait a little longer. Should he ever try to assassinate you, these guys here will protect you.”
“Thank you, Your Majesty.”
After placing his elite bodyguards around Minsena, the emperor immediately ran towards the direction the compass was pointing.
Hwang Lian stayed still.
After spreading the magic of distance on his own compass and sharing the sight so that the emperor could see it for himself, he just stood still.
“Sister. You know the ‘promise’, right?”
“……Hmm.”
“Unnie, why don’t you answer?”
“Are you really sure of that?”
Huang Lian lowered his voice.
He whispered into Min Sena’s ear so that no one could hear, even the guards next to him couldn’t hear.
“You really… Think the goddess lied to us?”
“So. You gave me two rings. Is there any reason why he should be wearing one of them?”
“…….”
“My sister and I, let’s go back together. How is it?”
“…Okay. Cooperation. No betrayal.”
“Betrayal? Why are you betraying? The baby is a guy who cuts my wrist. Even the belly is left hurt, so the belly tee is not wearing. The dog, if caught, I will definitely get the fingers.”
“…….”
Whether Min Sena vented her anger or not, Huang Lian looked at the compass again.
Then.
With flashes of flashes, dots that were elsewhere gathered into one place.
“f*ck…! Teleport!”
“What, what is it?”
“They hit the ball!”
The other two dots were exactly blocking the red dot.
“Follow me quickly! Come on!”
“Ah, why are you running when you’re wearing heels…!”
Min Sena, who was grumbling, ran in front of her without any problems even wearing her heels, and Huang Lian also ran in front of her, taking out his weapon – a whip.
Then the two faced each other.
“Undertaker…!”
A man surrounded by soldiers and surrounded by a magic circle.
“You son of a b*tch…!”
“Are you all gathered with this?”
Undertaker and the undertaker looked around with a calm face.
Undertaker surrounded.
“…Kuh.”
She was laughing.
