Demon King

“I didn't expect this to happen. ”

The rain shrugs as you look around the central hall in the castle, where all 448 dwarves gather.

“This could be an opportunity for Fate. ”

The Jinns were originally in the basement, and at night the horse was trying to survive by adding Mireina's power to it. As I got involved in it, I got out of the underground stagnation and moved forward.

However, the cogs that were engaged with this fortress were not one or two, and the realm of the dwarves who had been imprisoned was revealed to the human community unexpectedly.

Dwarves aren't like the Horses, but they're definitely underground. Moreover, those who were originally human were the ones who entered the body. Now that we've lost to humanity, to the Elves, we have no choice but to make alliances with them.

On the surface, the castle has improved, I have evolved, and I have more troops, so that's only good. But...

“Of course I think so. However. ”

More people are dying than the number of rescuers. Humans and Dwarves have been wounded, and neither side will ever forget it.

As proof of that, there was a clear temperature difference between those who were lucky enough to have been able to travel underground by me before the collision with the Elves or Humans.

“No way. How could someone like you do that? ”

“My friends know that I was a partner of the dwarves. ”

“The same man? Foolish fellow, they already don't see us as human. ”

“I wonder if they're still alive. ”

“Human or not, what does it matter? Haven't you seen it? You can bite as many of us as you want. A skyscraper is just a ruin of civilized television. They've already gone back to the primordial society of pharmacy.

I lost. ”

“Just like we are now? ”

Terror and sadness, cynicism and despair were swirling together in the same space, as though it was hard to recognize the shape.

If I interrupt there and say anything, it won't reach their ears. It would be better to emphasize their public stance, even if it's a little stiff than approaching them emotionally, with a hint of understanding their feelings.

The only thing I know for sure is that I saved their lives, and I have more power than them. And it made me stand in a place of overwhelming excellence in my conversations with them.

Even if it looks cold and unacceptable, I can't help it. You cannot apply the way you dealt with Mireina, Lee Chan Yuk and Cain to everyone. I can't carry them all. That is why our relationship with them is an ally.

Instead of rolling my head around thinking like that, I sighed. The rain looks at him and smiles small.

“You look tired. ”

“Yes, I'm tired. ”

“That's how it is to stand on top of others. ”

The rain brought me a pretty glass with it. Inside, there was a purple drink. After taking it, you clear it, return the cup to him and take a step in front of them.

[Relieves body fatigue. Mana is activated and your body is cleansed.]

The dwarves' gaze falls upon me. No, I've been caring about me from the start. Not only did I not see it explicitly because I was talking to the rain, I wanted everyone to do something for me.

“At this point, all dwarves from the human community gathered here, except the dead. But let's face it, if you're going out into the human community right now, you're not going to get anything but Santa Claus' gift bag.

Any objections so far? ”

In silence, the answer is that there is no objection with just the eyes. I nodded.

“From what I hear, there's still a much larger number of dwarves down here. As I promised all the Dwarves here, there are enough dwarves in the human society to overcome the threat of humans and elves and take their place.

Rescue them until. And you Dwarves. ”

“Until then, I'm defending this castle. Is that how I understand it? ”

“Yes."

Some of the dwarves speak in a cold voice.

“Who's to say it's that number? If we decide that we can't live on our own strength, do we have to stay here until we die of old age? ”

“No, judgment is autonomous. Pick a leader or vote for one of you. If you think you can survive out there, feel free to ask me for a door to the ground. ”

I declared it cut.

“But when an allied opponent is killed by a dog, their dreams are ferocious. If you don't want to die in vain, I'd like you to discuss your time on the ground. ”

“ · · · · · ·. ”

“You.”

Another of the dwarves opens his mouth.

“How strong are they? Can I assume you're the strongest man on Earth right now? ”

“Not at all. You can call it strong based on objective numbers, but as you can see, the leader of the Elves, a suspicious group, is particularly suspicious. Many of them are stronger than me. ”

Thus, even in this basement, where there are traitors and traitors, there are also people who are stronger than me. We'll be able to see it on the coming night. I didn't say it with my mouth.

“So cooperate. Defending the castle makes me stronger and makes you stronger. You can get stronger as soon as you risk your life. ”

“I've been walking ever since I was trapped in a dwarf's body for my life. Don't be ridiculous.”

“I don't mind if everyone thinks so. Then I'll give you specifics from now on. ”

It took a long time for all the dwarves to understand me, and it took me a while to listen to the dwarves' little conditions. But it's absolutely necessary. To make it easier for other Dwarves to join the Alliance, it will happen.

to prevent accidents that you don't know about.

[They're diligent.]

You hear that voice from the outside, watching the dwarves find and disband where they belong after all the stories are over. Kahn turns his head to look at me, looking out the giant window in the hall.

“You said you've seen them since the Underground Battlefield? ”

[Yes. We fought together against the underground monsters, where only the vanquishers could go. They didn't know why they had to fight, but their struggle to survive was no different than ours.]

I nodded quietly at his words. From Cain's perspective, he might have thought more of a dwarf than I did.

[To keep our promise to them, we too · · · · · · · ·.]

At that moment, the bracelet that was on my arm was cut off as if it had cut off my thoughts and Cain's words at the same time. The spit in the record has also been broken for a long time. As soon as I really completed the mission, I felt sad about the disappearing artifacts.

As I put it in my inventory, Caine said,

[· · · · · · · How about coming to thank her?]

“Her? Thank you? ”

[The one who wore the commander-like bracelet and provided Mana the whole time. I want to thank her for saving a Dwarf of that size today.]

A pronounced redness spread over Cain's dark skin, even beyond the window. It was a little frightening to leave an unlucky level, but it was enough to tell you how he felt.

I nod at him clearly.

“Okay, that's better. Bye.”

[If it's Mireina and Lee Chon Yuk, I'll hold them off, so you can relax a bit, but you won't have any problems.]

“Phew.”

Aren't they the youngest mindset on the most bizarre topics? I turned my back on that gap because I couldn't resist laughing.

[You have a lot of work to do, so keep your shoulders back.]

“Yes."

You wave to him and head to the top floor of the spire where El will be.

El stares at it with a broken bracelet on the table in the room. When I knocked, I used magic to open it, but my posture remained the same.

“I'm back.”

“ · · · · · ·. ”

“El?”

“· · · · · · · After. ”

She sighs briefly as if she had just recognized me, then raises her head while clearing her head. Her thin fingers tied her silky hair, but she did it on purpose.

No, you didn't.

El looks at me with burning red eyes and sighs once more.

“Looks like it collided with an elf. ”

“Yes, with a lot of numbers. ”

“Come and sit down. ”

I wouldn't have been so innocent when I was a child who was scolded by Mother. As she tucks herself onto the couch, she makes a small laugh and then stands back behind the couch where I'm sitting.

“Stay still. ”

“What is it?”

“Stand still.”

Her cold hands touch both cheeks. I felt a cool, warm and soft feeling because my body was naturally close to mine. Moreover, the fragrance that was hard to put into words made me feel someplace puzzled.

Though the rush lasted for nearly two thousand days, it made her quite relaxed, I realized that her goal was not merely a skinship after it flowed in.

“Hmm.”

“The rain hit the player, but that's not enough. ”

A cool finger touches my cheek, relaxing my body. The vast amount of Mana flowing through my fingers stretched out to every corner of my body, mixing naturally with my Mana. And scars and scars that I didn't even know I was doing.

You start gently clearing the enemies.

The trail of the battle against Elakatra was bigger and deeper than I expected. There were so many wounds engraved deep in my soul and body that I didn't understand. Why do I feel so fatigued today when I fought for three days and nights without tiring?

I could understand if I was.

El told me.

“Elakatra is in play with us. You may think you killed them easily, but just by touching them, damage accumulates. ”

It was at that moment that I remembered the battle with the creature of the soul that had been mistaken for a monster of light. Yeah. That's when I felt like Jinman's Mana was shrinking in his Mana.

That's what rain used to say. Even a hybrid, an Elf, holds the possibility at the foundation of existence.

“· · · · · · · Forgetting. ”

There was no one who emitted that energy, so I forgot all about it. But it wasn't. Elakatra, who had evolved into a higher system, was clearly stabbing me in the face at the moment of his death.

“It's no wonder you don't understand attacks at the level you don't understand. Actually, I don't understand either. ”

At the moment El spoke, a scene passed through my mind. Short moments in the context before and after, blurrier than photos.

El and I were as close as we are now. I think my hands were on El's head.

El said in a loving voice that he wanted to keep poker face to hide the fact that I remembered something.

“You told me. When I wasn't me yet, you were the only one looking at me. ”

“I don't know if I can say that. ”

“Yes. It's natural for you not to remember. ”

She says that and shuts up for a moment. However, I immediately took a step and hugged my head and asked with a small voice.

“But now we can remember this day together, right? ”

It was my turn to shut up this time. I couldn't answer it right away.

The relationship between two people that was wrong from the beginning. She kept her emotions from the past unceasingly and steadily, and I couldn't believe they were directed towards me now.

You can't undo what you've already done wrong. Even if you accumulate new memories on the wrong side of the relationship, it is like putting dirt on a pile of garbage, so it always smells like something else.

I was thinking that, but her hand gesture and voice that reached me were too warm. I was running towards my heart without any deviation. No matter how warm and fragrant it was, I wasn't the only one.

I even thought about throwing.

I opened my mouth. I was answering her without even knowing it.

“Yes. My memory isn't that bad. ”

“Idiot, I completely forgot once · · · · ·. ”

As El bluntly said, the power to hug my head became stronger. It was different from when he asked me to hold hands for 187 hours, so I had to stand still, too. If I tell the truth, I'll stay away from her, too.

I didn't want to.

Yeah, it is.

If you cover that pile of rubbish with a thousand times, ten thousand times, a million times, the rubbish would simply fall to error.

“What a ridiculous time, that. ”

“Huh?"

“No, it's nothing. ”

I made a bitter smile. I reached up and grabbed her hand, wrapped around my head, and relayed it in a quiet voice.

“Please take good care of it. ”
