While mapping the way out of the Duchy of Laden, three of the assassins finally reached the foot of the Demon King's kingdom.

Ahead is not the realm of man -.

The three men, Abigail, Elada and Zelkin, cautiously, but quickly, took their feet while pointing their nerves.

………………

Into the woods, go on for a while.

Abigail stopped to the sound of the distant sound of Kong...... Kong......

"Ellada, it's reconnaissance."

Copy that.

Elada lets her body act like a cat and progresses through the deep woods without sound.

I waited awhile and came back to Abigail.

"An elf is building a fort. Dwarf, there was an oak."

Elada was concerned about the Aldberg Bandits and their song, which they were singing, but this is not like reporting.

"Dwarf and Elf should have been in a hostility...... odd thing"

It was an oak awakened to intelligence that took between the two races.

That's what makes it possible to work with Dwarves and Elves who excel in masonry technology, but Abigail doesn't know that either.

"Whatever, we'll have to bypass it."

A map to the Imperial Castle is only very old.

Abigail spread the copy.

"Pretty bad terrain but will have to take this route......"

The Brave Party begins its journey with a glittering star guide at night.

So I didn't need a mapper for the brave party - one of the things that's different from this assassination unit.

The assassination unit progresses one by one with repeated measurements using the stars and the sun.

The journey took a long time.

Elves weren't the only ones who were building fortifications.

Of course the village of Dwarf, even Goblin in Kobold, was engaged in its construction.

(It's like expecting a presence like ours... it's a creepy story)

The opponent is the Demon King.

I don't even know what means I have to sense my enemies.

I can't let my men hear me, but Abigail thought of that.

Up a steep cliff, hiding himself from demons in the deep woods, through barren rocks...

The 13th Legion of the Astran Empire, the assassination unit, finally reached the foot of the Castle of the Demon King.

"There's still a fort...... that one's already done"

A fort with a tall tower is holding back entry from the front.

It was built in an exquisite position, killing the terrain's disadvantage.

"Me and Zelkin precede. I'm coming in from the west, Zelkin's coming in from the east. Ellada, if you have any anomalies, let me know by bird whistle."

A bird whistle, as its name suggests, is like a toy that makes a bird-like sound when twisted.

But being able to hear wild bird songs and their tones would be about a trained assassin.

Copy that.

"… Copy"

Zelkin laughed niggardly.

Freed from the boring long journey, I can finally devote myself to the "killing” of the main business.

Strengthened, unexpected force in a shitty arm.

Zelkin likes murder.

Even before being scouted by the 13th Legion, there are countless humans who have killed for pleasure.

The assassin was Zelkin's vocation.

The highest priority is the assassination of the Demon King.

To that end, we are even allowed to kill innocent people.

But it's unfortunate that there won't be anyone more easily able to kill like that than it is a demonic nest.

From the shadow of the rock to the shadow, Zelkin walked low in posture.

Approaching Demon King's Castle, taking an invisible route from the fort for sure.

So finally, we even came to the alien black castle.

Hiding in the snoring columns of the outer walls, gradually approaching the entrance.

Confirming that there was no sign of a person, Zelkin broke into the entrance from the open door.

(That's a lot of welcome compared to a human castle... Is that all you have confidence in, or is that a sign of arrogance...)

As I proceeded inside the castle, I heard a nose song from somewhere.

It's a woman.

"Humph, humph, Aldberg Bandits"

I think I heard a song somewhere, but not if you care about that.

Peeping from the shadow of the pillar, a woman with a cane was walking.

(You're a magician... from what I've seen, you only look human... but you're a good ass)

Seeing the smooth curves drawn by the perfect purple dress, Zelkin nodded his tongue.

Maybe it's not a bad idea to kill him and then "enjoy" him.

With that in mind, I pull the dagger out of my hips.

Assassination is what ends in an instant - I don't have time to feel the pain.

(Bye, horny sister...)

There was no Zelkin sound and he jumped behind the woman.

A sharply grinded dagger flashes.

At that moment...

Katsu.

The blade, which was torn down by the air, was inhibited by a wand held by the woman in her rear hand.

A giant eyeball embedded in the wand is staring at Zelkin.

"Nah..................!

Zelkin inadvertently lagged behind.

"... it's been a long time, you look like a customer ~"

The woman turned around slowly.

She was a glowing, more beautiful woman with red eyes than I've ever seen.

"Me? You tried to kill your sister now, didn't you?

Obviously that's what a woman younger than herself called me, and Zelkin's temples moved perfectly.

Of course, it's not enough to lack calm.

To deal with a magician, don't let him chant the spell - that is, an immediate serial strike!

Zelkin jumped again and waved the dagger.

"Look, I knew I was trying to kill you -!

The woman waves her wand delightfully and bounces back the dagger.

That smile has no gaps whatsoever.

"Well, let's give it a try...... [Freeze]"

The moment the woman muttered so, Zelkin couldn't move a single step off the spot.

Muscles don't do what they say.

I didn't even get to bend my fingertips.

"Heh, no resistance to lower magic either -. That means you're not alone, brave man."

The woman's nagging, but spread to.

"I found a good toy"

The woman lightened Zelkin's chin.

"My name is Alleyra. It's nice to meet you. Aleira is fine!

As soon as I was touched by my chin, only Zelkin's mouth began to move.

Everything is what my chronic heart invited me to do.

- I'm ready now.

"... kill it"

"Uh, I'm not gonna kill you easily. Hey, what a waste!

That's what Alleyra said, touching the uplifting muscles with pittance.

"A lot, don't you want to try it? And Gimmon? Or maybe I'll have to."

"... if you think I'm gonna talk about something, it's a big mistake."

Zelkin is also prepared to be an assassin.

"No, no, you're talking! … [Balloon]"

When the woman chanted that, Zelkin's belly began to swell slightly.

………………

Little by little, little by little.

But it definitely swells.

Nausea comes in.

The final figure floats in the back of my brain.

I can't stop sweating cold.

You don't just get killed.

- It's not just torture.

"You know what happens if you keep swelling like this, right? I personally love to see that... I'll ask."

The woman pinched Zelkin's cheek with both hands.

"Where did I come from?"

………………

"Oh, I'm gonna shut up... [Balloon Level 2]"

………………

The expansion of the body accelerated at once.

Forged up, squeezed body swells like a ball.

"Go, go, say, say!!

From the temples of Zelkin, sweat flows like a waterfall.

My tongue pops out of my mouth.

Zelkin is an excellent assassin.

I am trained to be tortured.

But who would have guessed I'd see you like this?

Fear of the sorcerer anoints his professionalism.

"... Speak... Hebe, hebe!

Zelkin's heart was finally broken.

- But.

"Uh, forget something. It's getting more fun to watch."

Despair struck Zelkin.

This woman - she's just having fun.

From the beginning, I never really thought I'd hear anything out of you.

I'm just enjoying murder.

Not like Zelkin - I enjoy twitching and people dying.

"No... no... I don't want to die Hi..."

♪ Hang in there ♪ Hang in there ♪

Every time Alleyra slaps her hand, Zelkin's body keeps swelling.

Blood vessels float to the skin.

Butterflies and I hear something chopping a thousand times in my body.

More and more tears were spilling.

The human face I've killed comes to mind.

- I don't want to die, I don't want to die, I don't want to die!!

"Whatever! Ran but fu! Rakah, to the taffoo! Ranraya!

"You'll do anything..."

Alleyra laughed, showing her white teeth.

Red eyes are shining.

"Then show it to your sister for the best death?

- My vision darkened.

In a dark world, fear swells with the body.

"Hida, hi...!

"Well, I'm gonna count you down."

Gladly rhythmically clapping her hands, Alleyra said.

"Yes, five... four... three... two..."

Zelkin's body was already close to the sphere.

"Ta... Ta Hikaru..."

"Wow."

Pan.

Zelkin scattered his blood and guts, ending his life as an assassin.

"I figured I should have zimmoned it - sort of! It was fun!

Meanwhile, Abigail, who knows nothing about Zelkin's tragic death, was climbing a steep cliff to break into Demon King's Castle.

- Without even knowing the fate to wait ahead.
