Who in this world has faced the most heroes?
Me.
I have fought countless battles against heroes, pretended to travel with them and poisoned their food, and studied what they were thinking when they attacked me.
It has long been said that the enemy knows the enemy’s enemy best.
As a Demon Lord, I can proudly say that I know the characteristics of heroes better than any other Demon Lord.
There were many instances when I realized that this was the basic form of a warrior while watching the countless heroes who came to attack the Demon Lord’s castle.
Just like right now.
“Go, Lucius! The first thing you must do is…!”
Lucius drew his holy sword.
The holy sword that rose from his two arms above his head revealed its large and gigantic form toward the sky, and the orcs stared at the holy sword in amazement.
Even the elves who were imprisoned.
Was it because of the light of the holy sword, or because he saw a light that could save him in the midst of the commotion?
The elf was lost in thought, looking at Lucius.
‘Idiots.”
Whether orcs or elves, they were all incredibly foolish.
If the enemy was preparing to attack with something that had a strong visual effect, shouldn’t we be ‘prepared to defend or counterattack instead of being fooled by the enemy?
“We’re good’
The orcs were frozen by the power of the holy sword.
Since we have no intention of advertising this widely, we must quickly deal with the enemy.
First.
“Save the elf first!”
Lucius ran forward without hesitation.
With one step, the moment he touched the ground, a gust of wind engulfed him, sending him running towards the elf in one breath.
Crunch!
Lucius swung the holy sword at the iron cage with one hand.
The golden storm containing Lucius’s will cut through the solid iron cage in one breath, and Lucius reached out and wrapped his hand around the elf’s waist to protect her.
“Ah…”
I heard the elf’s voice in relief from afar.
In the meantime, I stepped back slightly, checked the number of orcs, and looked around.
There were no other enemies.
There were no other eyes watching this place.
“Burning, sacred flame!”
Divinity from the mouth of the Demon King.
It may be a little ridiculous, but it would be better to use the same chant that the Crimson Magician used.
“Be the wall that protects my hero! ‘Fire Wheel Shield”!”
As soon as I stuck my staff into the ground, my mana instantly filled the staff and manifested outside.
Hurrah.
Three fireballs spinning around as if protecting me.
And at the same time, three fireballs flew to Lucius and began to circle around him.
“Sweep them away!”
As soon as my order was given, Lucius swung his holy sword to the side.
Kwas-ahhh!!
I only swung it horizontally once, but a golden storm swept through the orcs and killed them in an instant.
The pressure of the wind from swinging the sword made the orcs’ blood spurt out from their bodies.
Thirteen in one blow.
However, Lucius’ sword still held a golden storm.
“No, kill him!!”
The orc leader, Geth, finally raised his weapon while shouting.
The orcs each raised their weapons toward Lucius, but it was not to rush at them, but to protect themselves.
“Chwi, chwiik…!!”
Their instincts must know this.
In front of the power of the holy sword, the orcs were nothing more than helpless beings.
However, a true orc is someone who does not back down and fights even in the face of overwhelming power.
“Kkieeeek!!”
They were all dead.
The orcs threw away their weapons and began to scatter in all directions.
Some of them ran toward me.
Lucius was surprised to see me, but I twirled my staff once and prepared for the next chant.
“The flames will guide you. My power will become an arrow that pierces the enemy, burning their hearts.”
Ah.
I, the Demon King, am chanting for three verses.
To save this tiny amount of mana, I’m not chanting without chanting, nor am I using mana to spontaneously combust, but I’m using three verses to cast a basic magic like Fire Arrow!
“Master!!”
However, I can’t be protected by Lucius forever.
“You need to focus on your fight.”
One is to show him that I have the means to protect myself so that he will not worry about me.
“I’m going to relieve some stress.”
And the other is to kill the orcs who are polluting my memories with my own hands.
“You aim for the leader! I will subdue the small fry!”
“…!!”
I swung my staff forward.
“Frame Spear!”
The mana gathered at the tip of the staff instantly turned into flames, and it flew towards the orcs’ hearts as sharp thorns.
Crack, crack, crack.
The thorns of flame were pierced into the orcs’ hearts.
Since they weren’t wearing armor, let alone upper garments, they were bound to be vulnerable to the magic that had been refined and refining and chanted for three verses.
“Hmph.”
The orcs who were aiming at me began to fall helplessly.
My attacks knocked them down so easily, and the thorns of flame that were pierced into their hearts began to burn their hearts.
This will make it easier to farm magic stones later.
Since I can’t keep telling Lucius to rip out my heart, it’s better to take out the enemy’s magic stone in advance while fighting,
There’s no enemy who’s going to steal the magic stone right now…
“Keeeeek!!”
At that moment, the orcs eyes started to glow red.
Something made my blood boil, as if an instinct for fighting and killing was rising rather than reason.
“Kreeek.”
The orcs were all looking at me.
Even the orcs who were already dead were looking at me with their bloodshot eyes.
“Tsk.”
As expected from the goblins, these guys are after me.
No matter how much I try to hide it, my true nature flowing from the magic core that makes up my heart can’t be hidden.
I don’t know that I’m Demon King Belphegor, but I know that the powerful demons are weakened!
“Kwasaaah!!”
The orcs all started to charge at me.
The orc that had already run toward me was about to swing a huge axe at me, and I reached out my hand to him.
Boom, Boom, Boom!!
The fireball that had been circling around me flew towards the orc and exploded.
The orc fell forward, turning to charcoal.
The problem is.
“Whew….”
If there was an enemy approaching, I should have flown over and detonated it before returning, but the fireball was stuck in the orc’s flesh and wouldn’t come out.
I barely pulled it out, but the enemy came running faster than me and was after me.
At this rate.
“This is your turn’
Crash!!
A golden storm swept over my left and right, and Lucius had already arrived in front of me.
“Are you okay, Master?”
“Yes. Do you know roughly when you should come save me?”
“When Master is in a dangerous situation and uses a lot of mana…”
“Yes. Exactly.”
My mana is used as collateral for vitality.
Lucius’s role is to save me when I have to use a significantly larger amount of mana than I had expected.
Of course, in the worst case scenario, I would have to use magic, but it would be such a waste to use more mana against an orc than I could get from the orc’s magic stone.
“Hey. Are you okay?”
“Oh, yes, yes…”
The silver-haired elf stood there with a trembling face.
For some reason, Lucius was still holding her waist, but he looked somewhat uncomfortable.
Was he perhaps reluctant to be touched by a male human?
If so, it would be a little rude, even for a warrior.
“You shouldn’t lose to an elf’
The elves were a race that would be of great help to Lucius in dealing with the Demon King.
They would tremble at the thought of a Demon King or a Demon Tribe, and as the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, they would greatly help Lucius, the warrior of the Holy Sword.
“Lucius, you seem uncomfortable. How long are you going to hold that?”
“Huh? Oh, ah! I’m, I’m sorry!!”
Lucius backed away from the elf in shock.
The elf glared at me for a moment, fiddling with the place Lucius had been holding, but then closed his eyes tightly and seemed to be thinking of something.
“Uh, uh..”
“Hey.”
I tapped Lucius thigh with the staff and pointed to his clothes.
Put your coat on him.
The elf was currently wearing clothes that were almost like rags, almost like he was naked.
Lucius hurriedly took off his robe. He draped it over the elf’s shoulders.
“Ah…”
As expected.
The elf’s hostile gaze slowly began to relax as it turned to Lucius.
I felt like my love coaching had been successful…
What the.
Why are you glaring at me?
I was curious about the human world.
That’s why I ran away from home.
I ditched my elf escort.
And entered the human world secretly.
People didn’t really care about the existence of the silver-haired elf.
The elves had been able to drive out all the dwarves with their skills.
And were the representative field marshals in the human cities.
So much so that elves had blended in with the human world without much trouble for the past several hundred years.
However, where there is light, there is darkness.
‘Rosmas’ quickly fell into a trap.
She was captured by the orcs and eaten alive. She was the princess of the elven nation. However, if the princess ran away, ditched her escort, and planned to hide her identity and wander around, it would definitely take time to find her.
Kuuut…?! Why the spirits?!
Kuhaha! The spirits follow me!
That doesn’t make sense!
You say they can’t?
Of course it makes sense!
I’m a sorcerer after all! Kuhaha!
If something like this were to happen in the meantime, if there were an unidentified orc who could subdue even the spirits she was proud of.
Light the fire! I’ll cook it until crispy on the outside and tender on the inside!
I’m the princess of the elf country!
The elves won’t stay still!
Then I guess I’ll just eat it and run away.
Ah……Rosemath was frustrated.
They’re trying to eat her.
The moment she thought that being eaten was her fate.
Wind! Rosemath fell in love at first sight with the man who rushed at her wearing a golden storm.
Rosemath’s heart raced at the sight of the man who swung his holy sword at his enemies and smiled at her as if telling her to give him relief.
And. Master!!
The moment the witch behind her was in danger, Rosemath had a gut feeling as she watched him running faster than her, with an urgent expression on his face, to save her.
The witch who was called Master. The hero was making a face towards the witch that he had never shown to himself.
“Anyway, you don’t have to come to save me…”
That witch was a witch.
“Ahem, by the way. What’s your name?”
“…Rosemas Tervation.”
“Miss Rosemas, can you fight?”
“… Of course”
Sasah.
Rosemas gushed out her mana and created a bow.
The warrior let out an exclamation at the silver bow like her hair, but that was it.
“Lucius. Can you continue?”
“Of course, Master. I will not let any of their attacks reach you.”
“Hmm. That is to say…”
Rosemas, the princess of the Elf Kingdom, bit her lip as she looked at the red witch.
“Lucius.”
“Yes, Master.”
“Take her down and come back. I will believe in you and wait.”
As soon as the witch finished speaking, Crunch.
A golden storm covered the forest.
