Ninety-five Tales: The Men's Back

"The air has changed..."

Gallol walking cobblestone with a warrior's shoulder borrowed, looked up at the sky and snapped.

The brave roar of the people rises from there in the king's capital, and the signs of those who fight come from far away.

I feel the air that wraps the king's capital, the atmosphere full of fear and impatience, does change.

To the dust of walking supported by the warriors just like himself, Gallol held up his torn mouth and said.

"The voice of this battle-filled group...... the roar that rises from all parts of the King's capital is definitely not of the Snobbers. I can tell, this is a human voice, trying to hold hope in doom... fighting for survival"

……

"Tell me, Dust. We Coffins... can we survive? Can we take down Snowba?

"The resurrected dead and the residual strength of Coffin… it is unlikely that we will be able to exterminate the snobber army even if we summon them together. I honestly had to say it was difficult, even if the owl knights and the war-dead Coffin soldiers died out of their dying power.

But now the Separca army has emerged across the southern border. Then the story will be different. "

Garrol asks the warriors face to face with the words of Dust staring forward with his white eyes.

"He said it was the Separca army! How do you know that!?

"I demonized the mouse bones and let them run outside the stone walls. There's actually a hole in the stone wall where every man can pass... through the eyes of the demon that got him out of there, and now he's looking outside the king's capital.

The Separca army is fighting under the Coffin flag. They're here for reinforcements. "

The right eye of the dust is moving independently of the movement of the left eye.

Staring at that unusual expression, Gallol nevertheless held his fist in delight.

"Right......! Did that country come to me as an ally in this worst battle...!

The snobber army has only infantry. Separca warriors manipulating fast road runners have a minute!

"If Coffin and Separca join hands, the adventurers and the snobber soldiers may be able to defeat them.

But the problem is God. Still, there's nothing we can do, that giant monster continues to exist as the greatest disaster of this war "

Dust accidentally closed his right eye and turned to Gallol and the others. Gallol and the two Warriors squeeze their faces at him as they stare straight at themselves.

Gallol asked with a dejected voice and an uncanny eye.

"To defeat God... do you have one?

"Why is God immortal? It would be because snakes stuck in the corpses of giants that existed in ancient times instantly repair the wounds sustained by the corpses, in total outcasts.

Makito's immortality and principles are the same in that respect. Snakes force hosts to live, so they don't die. "

"I guess Makito will be defeated by the Owl Knight. Then God too..."

"In Makito and God, the quality and quantity of snakes we keep in our bodies are out of step. It's almost limitless impossible to wipe out the snakes in God's body with a physical attack...

The most gigantic snake has the combat ability to even drop Morg. You can't kill that one. "

Gallol, who opened his mouth, the dust turned to his white palm to control.

In a voice swamped by the sound of a battle rising inside and outside the king's capital, the man called the Demon King says as if he were talking to himself.

"In the end, the scourge of the human world should be destroyed by man... and the scourge that emerges from the realm of the devil... who is stained with the power of the same demon, deals with him..."

"What does that mean?"

"You stop General Yuk's ambitions. God, who embodies his evil intentions, and God the Summoner, I'll do something about it."

Can you do something about it? Gallol, who tried to ask that, narrowed his eyes when Dust grabbed him by the shoulder.

A shivering breath-emitting dust, like it's freezing in the middle of winter cold, rings his throat several times laughing at what's wrong.

"It's a big man, you are. Try to go the right way straight at all times, even if you can be distressed or sore. Make the right effort and keep walking towards your goal.

When you come across overly mighty enemies and difficulties, that's the kind of 'strength of those who keep walking' you say the most. You can continue to stand to the end of a battle without winning, without kneeling in despair "

"... hey dust..."

"Master Lucina, please. The hero who protects that one is neither the Owl Knight nor, let alone, the Demon King Dust.

It can't be anything but you, Gallo. "

Dust lowered his hand from Gallor's shoulder as he slipped.

Laughing at the warrior captain as he stared at himself, "What a rash," Dust unraveled the hand of the warrior regiment member who had supported him and began walking on his own.

"You go to Lucina first. I... am alone, I have something to do..."

……

"I'll catch up with you later"

A dust that breathes carelessly, snugly, and even cats pay for.

Gallol lays down his eyes for the first time and then, most importantly, holds the shoulders of the warriors and passes behind the dust.

As he passed by, he said low, as Gallor looked forward.

"I never really thought of you as the Demon King."

"... ho"

"You are just a fine man and a woman who are old and terribly lonely. The Demon King is not a horrible being."

Dust held his back, laughing low and raising his right hand, pointing his raised thumb to the ground. "I'm not thin, you're big, kid"... Gallol silently raised only the end of his mouth to the dust of returning it.
