Hakai no Miko

Episode 39: Bad Ascension

The Son of Destruction overthrew the armies of the peripheral marquises, and all the northern marquises, including the Marquis of Appius, were disputed, and their necks were taken.

The Son of Destruction is furious with the rebellion of Mendax, and leads his hosts toward the king's capital to make sure of it.

In response to reports that the Son of Destruction overthrew the Army of the Border Marquis, the Marquises from all parts of the country who were opportunistic have also joined the Son of Destruction by citing soldiers saying, "Do not discuss the rebel Mendax."

Rumors of such an intersection of falsehoods had spread all at once to the king's capital, Holmenia, as a result of the wildfire that had been unleashed on the dead field.

The inhabitants of the Romanian National Army secretly remembered their anger at the Northern Marquis, who had also set their sights on the impending crisis in the King's capital, and praised the triumph of this Ethereal Horse.

Along with that, the anger and dissatisfaction of the inhabitants of the King's capital were directed to Mendax in unison when information nearly came out of Mendax's personal lust to consign him to the Northern Gorges and to seize (whisper) the King's capital and throne.

Even the gates of the Wang Capital are closed, blocking passage and logistics, and hindering lives. On top of that, the attempt to seize the throne by harming Princess Wallina, who was also sympathetic and secretly popular among the inhabitants of the King's Capital, no longer seemed Mendax's appreciation had fallen to the earth, but even reached the swamp of Genovanda manure deep in the earth.

Around those who stood on the corner and openly criticized Mendax, people gathered, and they saw the scriptures that rebuked Mendax's evil deeds everywhere. All that, or even the radical content that prompted them to decide to open the gate with their own hands to welcome in when the armies of the Son of Destruction arrived inside.

Even Mendax couldn't hold hands on this. When fully armed by the soldiers, they patrolled the spears and swords, trying to intimidate and hold back the inhabitants of the King's capital.

But it also ends in vain.

There followed a situation where soldiers on patrol were attacked and slapped by someone. Mendax's private soldiers get butted into this. No longer did anyone intend to go on patrol, but they locked themselves in the royal castle, which closed the castle gate as firmly as the Lord, Mendax.

To this the inhabitants of the king's capital gained even more momentum, raising the weapons and flags that they had taken from the soldiers on patrol from day to day like spoils of war and saying, "Kick Mendax out of the king's capital! Welcome the Son of Destruction to the King's Capital!" and raised his temper.

It goes without saying, of course, that behind those inhabitants there was a fanning of toe-to-toe hands, who, at the request of Eladia, leapt.

In those moments and in the aggravating circumstances came Padax, his son with a sad face, to Mendax, who clings to the throne between his eyes.

"Father. Another soldier has fled. We can't even maintain the royal castle like this..."

Even the mercenaries, who had reduced their numbers, had already fled somewhere, with no one left but Mendax. Escapers continued to emerge from among the private soldiers, and Mendax gestures were no longer left but to count.

"They don't say that, but I know!

Mendax shouted outrageously.

As the words say, Mendax also knew.

Out of the Son of Destruction and the Marquis of Appius, I was meant to be the king of the kingdom of Holmea. If you open the lid, it's the end of the line. The Son of Destruction has been exposed beforehand of a plan of treason, and I'm sure I saw myself trapped by being taken backwards of it.

And Marquis Apius, who was a conspirator if this was a trap, would also have been taken prisoner or deceased already.

No matter who no longer sees it, this treason is a failure.

This is the result of thinking that the poor aristocrats, who were even in need of daily food, were the great battle of a generation to be king of the Holmeer kingdom.

Mendax gets hit with disappointment.

From outside the castle there, I hear more and more people boiling.

"What the hell happened?!"

As Mendax panicked with a bad feeling, one of the only remaining soldiers rushed in between the glances.

"It's hard, Master Mendax!

To calm his absurd breath, the soldier says once he has cut off his words, he goes on.

"The army of the Son of Destruction has revealed itself!

To the soldier's report, Mendax just opened his mouth wide, pointlessly, without even being screamed.

Further reports from the soldiers follow.

"To this the inhabitants of the king's capital are cheering and killing to open the gates of the king's capital to welcome the sons of destruction. There is no longer any way for us to stop this, and it is believed that the army of the Son of Destruction will soon enter the King's capital!

Mendax stood up in a hurry to kick the throne.

"Come on! Steady the castle gate now! As long as the castle gate is consolidated, even if the king's capital falls, it will not fall so easily! Paddax, you're on your way!

So he hastened his son, Padax, to the gate of the castle, and only one Mendax was left in the sight. Mendax then looked around like a rat peeking his face through the nest hole. And when he made sure no one was there, Mendax jumped out of the sight with a doodle of footsteps.

"Damn! You're gonna die!

That's how Mendax threw up as he drove down the aisle from the sight to the back of the royal palace.

It is the most brutal death to wait on those who have failed to rebel, East and West now.

If it's beheading or tying, it's still better. In the past, some have been sentenced to a sentence where starving bugs are thrown into awkward holes and devoured while living, or where they cannot even sit and rest instead of sleeping thrown into a large iron cage with thorns on the inside, and finally die mad.

It is such an unforgivable sin against the powerful.

However, Mendax was perfectly forgiven for his death.

Forgive me for the execution, but I am not willing to make a clean decision. Whatever ugliness you expose, whatever curse you get, you live and you survive.

Such a Mendax escaped into the room of Princess Wallina, who was under house arrest behind the royal palace.

"Her Royal Highness Princess Warina! Please help me!

Mendax lay flat before Princess Wallina, surprised by her sudden visit, as she opened the door with a kicking momentum. If the Ethereal Horse sees the spot, "Flying dirt!" It is a flat, sliced ambush that rejoices greatly.

"I have only come to believe the lie that Her Royal Highness Princess Warina is being humiliated! It is in our actions driven by righteousness for it! I was fooled, too! Please don't understand!

To Mendax, who stands so stiff, Princess Wallina, whose temporary surprise has passed, raises a harsh voice when her eyes are rarely lifted with a kick to her temperate.

"Don't let them tell you lies. You conspired with the Marquis of Appius to make Soma and I a deceased and to make this country ours! There's no one in the castle who doesn't already know that!

Somehow he was to have been mauled to death by a pale horse. No matter how many people were good Wallina, I was just guessing Mendax's thoughts.

Mendax makes excuses, however, even during this period.

"No, that's never the case! This Mendax, now enriched by His late Majesty Walius, will save Her Royal Highness Princess Wallina."

"Don't look ugly!

Princess Wallina drank a drink when she blocked Mendax's paranoia.

"Now the ugliness. Perhaps Master Soma, who escaped from the king's capital, defeated the Marquis of Appius?

Mendax became a little bit of a face. The area around Princess Wallina should have been solidified so that she wouldn't know anything unnecessary. Yet when Mendax half-wittedly talks about why he knows it, Warina tells him to teach.

"Have you forgotten? Master Soma is the one who left Uncle Darius, the best general in the Holmeer kingdom, and broke down the Black Wall from the front as well. How can the Marquis of Appius, when he is a warrior, be no match for the stronger Soma than the best generals and the strongest legions"

To this Mendax nods his face, shuddering his whole body with a pull, lying flat.

"I beg you, at least, to treat Master Soma generously," said Princess Warina, who felt sorry for it.

But that doesn't mean saving lives. It's a word I mean to ask you to at least put me to death without making me suffer.

To the fact that death was no longer inevitable, Mendax lost his word and could only shake his body.

It was Mendax who was trembling his body like that for a while, but he spills it bossy as he lays low.

"... no longer, ever"

Unexpectedly Mendax looked up, gabbling. He opens his blood-running eyes to the extreme in his depressed orbit from hard work and lack of sleep, and Mendax eats to Princess Wallina with an angry beastly expression.

"This little girl! A little girl who stood on top of people without any difficulty just because she was born royally slapped her witty mouth! Fine! If this happens, I will kill you and have you sin that it was all your conspiracy!

Mendax was mad. That's not because I was withdrawn from the plea for help. What makes Mendax so angry is the pity that runs through Princess Walina's expression and words.

Mendax knew that he despised himself for being "hemmed" by all the lords and heavy ministers or even by working in court. Against those pussies, it was Mendax, whose mouth was marked with "jealousy for the successful," but it's not like he still didn't feel humiliated.

However, Mendax houses are such a family that they are only named nobles and even have trouble with daily food. Then I can't really hope for the back shield, authority, or handover that I need to rely on. I couldn't say very well that my abilities are also superior to those of others.

Still, if I wanted to become one, I'd swallow humiliation, throw down shame, and make a fool of King Walius.

As for the means taken, others would frown.

Nevertheless, Mendax became, at the end of his patience, which cut him into pieces, and his hard work in finding a grain of sand from the desert, what should be termed the highest peak of his ministry.

Even though he was treated cold by his brother Prince, he was pitied by Princess Wallina, who was admired only by his ministers or even by the people because he was born royally.

And Mendax was furious.

"Dear Mendax! Are you insane?!"

To Mendax's madness, a samurai raised her voice on behalf of Princess Wallina, who lost her complexion and words. Mendax screams back at this as he spits.

"Oh! You're sane too! Anyway, as it is, only the Son of Destruction will kill you. Then, no, not originally. If it's even a slight possibility, I'll just give it a try!

To put it that way. Mendax took out the short knife he had hidden, and with it he stood up to take the life of Princess Wallina.

"Come on, princess. You royals are for your country, aren't you? Then let him die for me, one of the people of Holmea, in the end!

The samurai desperately raise their voice as they cover Princess Warina to Mendax, who approaches Jirijiri with a short knife in one hand.

"Dear Mendax! Please, don't be calm!

"Shut up, fool!

But Mendax returns his anger.

"If you don't want to die either, drop Warina over here!

The samurai quickly lost their complexion to Mendax, who shook his knife to show it off. In it, Princess Wallina, who looked bluer than the samurai, still shook her hand and kicked Mendax.

"Master Mendax aims only at me. There's nothing for these people, is there?

The samurai, who guessed what Princess Warina was going to say in that mouthful, screamed small. Mendax answers without looking at it.

"That's right! All you have to do is kill you!

It is a lie.

Because they saw this series of interactions, naturally Mendax intended to seal the mouths of the samurai who are here as well. But more than that, killing Princess Wallina is now a priority with certainty. It was a lie for that.

And to that extent, Princess Wallina had also thinly guessed. But still, I have to live with it now.

Princess Warina tells Mendax once she pulls her mouth firmly together to stop the tremor on her lips.

"Then I will neither escape nor hide. - Come on, you guys, run."

The second half of the word was directed at the surrounding samurai.

When it comes to the princess's sidelined samurai, it is an admirable position for the women of this era. Because if you have personal knowledge with a princess who will be the future queen or descend to a leading nobleman in the country, you will not have trouble getting married after finishing your apprenticeship as a samurai.

But as for Princess Wallina's maiden, who was cold-handed by her brother, Prince Alexius, the dowry may be reluctant. As a result, there was a lack of skill in the matter.

Just to find out, Princess Warina was a gentle husband to the maid by helping her with her apologies.

The samurai who changed her blood phase pushes Princess Warina to go to Mendax on her own feet.

"You mustn't, Princess! Please run while we stop eating!

In addition, the samurai were only elected with such a princess, and all those who had been treated cold by their families. That's why they loved Princess Wallina, who was kind to them.

It was a beautiful appearance of the Lord's obedience trying to help each other, but to Mendax today it is only a sight to be reminded of his inferiority.

"Enough is enough! Put it together and I'll kill you!

Mendax swung up his short knife with his eyes running blood.
