No matter how much time passes, Diederich Baling's soul is trapped in the darkness of [that day].

A thin rope that extends from the ceiling beam.

The one that shakes quietly underneath, was my wife.

Having staged countless martial arts on a battlefield full of death, he had no choice but to remain silent like a frightened child before that single death.

The hanging was a scandal with no roots and no leaves.

The content is not noteworthy or uncomfortable to recall - all you need to know is that he was called a hero as a general of the Kingdom of Rowe, and that there was a fellow who had misled him by continuing to promote him at an unusual rate.

Diederich's martial arts were remarkable, but there was a gap in terms of political power.

But seriously, he could only honestly deny the scandal, and he had no way of resisting the well-rooted political attack.

The more excuses, the further away the people's hearts went.

Even though we started calling ourselves a hero, we were betrayed and accused him - and even his family.

My wife can't even walk on the table properly.

At the end of it all, they hung from the ceiling.

- Why not?

When he was alone, he hid his face and wandered the city, repeating his question.

- Why not?

- Why do I have to suffer from so much service to my country?

- Why do people call me a hero, and now they scold me?

--Why... don't you listen to my words and listen to all the ugly stories...?

That's not fair.

A drunken voice jumped into Diederich's ear.

Did you hear Diederich's wife choked me?

Haha! The skin of the hero Summon Monster has finally peeled!

Oh, the fact that you chose suicide means that the rumors are true! If not, you can deny it with dignity!

- I've done it many times.

- I've done it many times.

You've done it so many times!!

It was you who didn't listen to me.

You didn't listen to me, you didn't listen to me! How... how... how...!!

Oh... I can hear you laughing.

The sound of laughing at my wife's death hanging from the ceiling, as if she were watching a comedy...

I see.

I see.

I see.

Why is that?

I got it.

Is that why you're here?

It's just-- "Because it's interesting."

And Diederich pulled out his sword.

A sea of blood spread through the city during the day.

Kill as many as you can.

I'll break the door as much as I can.

After that, Diederich, finally imprisoned, was no longer willing to survive.

That laugh.

That's the root malignancy that humans can't help.

Yes, the tragedy is a good example. Tears at the sad end--but if you're sad, you don't have to make it, you don't have to.

People don't like it.

I can truly enjoy the tragic end of someone.

This is not evil.

Is it okay to have a society where this is not evil?

Was I also one of those people?

The fact that he was one of those creatures knocked out Diederich above all else.

Otherwise, I might have stood by that laugh.

I might have laughed at someone's wife hanging herself over a drink.

So... it's decided that such things should disappear... "

It was at that time that the Demon King appeared.

Darker than anyone else, the boy stared across the cell lattice at Diederich and said:

Do you think humans are creatures worth believing in?

◆◆◆―――――――◆◆◆ ―――――――◆◆◆

Diederich's heavy blow plays my [Akatsuki Sword].

I take my distance before I get caught in a cage woven from evil god fiber.

Diederich Baling narrowed her eyes somewhat lonely at the end of my gaze at the sunrise sword again.

"I've been saved.... I've been saved."

One step at a time.

With a stiff sole, he stepped on the floor stone of the Demon King's Castle.

"That day, you reminded me of the words you said and the eyes you turned to me -" I have a companion. "It made me think," I'm not alone. "... laugh. It's like a lost child... You looked glorious when you found me."

The silver scales stained black, and the invisible virus filled the air.

It doesn't work against the Phantoms with Spirit Magic Gear, who are dealing with Rachel and Elvis. A saturated attack that will only weaken us unilaterally.

I delicately manipulated the [Nesting Transparent Wing] to create a wall of airflow and contained it.

"If a brave sun shines, the demon king is the moon that guides the darkness." People like you are the beacon for us who have strayed from the world and lost our meaning in life. [Below is below]... you can look up at the bottom of hell. ”

The tip of the sword, which was stained with germs and pitch-black, was turned against me.

And yet, what are you trying to get out of it?

The next moment, the tip of the sword was right in front of me.

Play it on the side with the "Akatsuki Sword". But even Diederich's kenshin was already woven into it from the beginning. From the violent step, soft spin. An even more elegant sideways blow is aimed at my neck.

"You'll have to be unhappy." You can't be happier than anyone else! And yet, why are you reforming? Are you taking me back? I'm finding the will to live!? "

A black-stained, custom-made sword is also equal to a mass of poison. If you touch the blade a little, the body will be immediately infected by the disease and deprived of motor skills.

But now, more than that, the words were heavier and sharper.

"Despair more than we do!!" If you're less fortunate than we are!! That's why you're the Devil King!! "

Every time the sword clashes, the weight of the emotion is transmitted.

The heat, the pain, is directly transmitting and opening my wounds.

"... I'm sorry..."

I lost control of my emotions.

I couldn't stop the overflowing words.

"Is that so bad...?" The demon king will be happy! "I was told...!" You told me! You can be happy...!! "

"I'm laughing!!"

The pressure of the sword grew rapidly, and my legs floated off the floor.

Float yourself before being rolled to the ground. However, the battle-scarred general could not have missed the momentary gap that could be sewn into the air.

"It looked so pleasant!" In the bed I put up with the elves! "

A sword wielded with strength strikes me in the abdomen.

Diederich chases me further, blowing me up like a ball and crashing against a wall.

"Was it something like that!?" No hatred, no despair! Did you spit it out with the seeds?! It's like a monkey, eh!? "

Diederich's hand touched my arm trying to escape.

Just by doing so, the Nesting Permeable Wing was lifted and the body was trapped by gravity.

"Good job, Jack Lieber!! Let's celebrate from the bottom of our hearts!!"

Diederich's shoes stepped on my breastplate as if they were sewn to the wall.

"There are (...) women (...) who are (...) consoling (...), (...) books (...) are (...)"

...... Raquel!

Hundreds... thousands of years of saving me...!

"--Don 't insult me!! Diederich!!"

As I twisted my body and stepped out of Diederich's soles, I swung down the [Akatsuki Sword] from the upper stage.

The blow, which was supposed to have been unexpected, was--but...

It was lightly prevented at the moment before it released its heavy weight.

"... so light... so sad..."

Diederich muttered in a disillusioned voice as she turned back my sword.

Shortly thereafter, I was roughly kicked across the side, and I slipped on the floor stone.

"I was stupid. It was really stupid. The last king... was just a kid looking for a place to fit his lower body like a monkey."

By the time I got up, Diederich's viral sword had already been thrust in front of me.

"Say it again... and deny it."

With deep cave-like eyes, the Demon King's cadets looked down at me.

"Let me show you, Jack Lieber--I don't think a kid can grow up to know a woman!!"

Then, the pitch-black sword was swung down.
