Our demon king is coming. (formerly Mayday A Series)

40: Thor, the promise of narrow voices.

It's not like I've never been in someone else's mental space, but it's a mental space.

A space without any physical elements, but therefore very abstract, conceptual and dangerous.

They should be entering a very private space, Prince Alfredo's spiritual world, but they are almost darkened by the magic of brainwashing.

By the way, as much as a colorless crown is falling.

Rather, it also seems to symbolize the heart of the First Prince.

"... was there"

Prince Alfredo was quickly found.

Sitting on a lonely throne, staring at the blurry void.

"Your Highness... I'm here to pick you up"

"... Tor Sagaram..."

………

His Highness spoke my name unexpectedly.

He seems conscious.

"Ha... you'll be sorry, I am"

"… Your Highness"

"In the end, I got what you guys said.... Just like Machia Odileel said...... I was powerless, and I could not resist my mother or my prime minister. I will be the foolish king of puppets no one wants."

"… Your Highness. Is there untrained unto my mother, who hath made thee so?"

………

"What we call bonding with flesh parents is certainly irreplaceable.... but it's not like my mother would necessarily love me. Even if there was love, telling me that I tried to brainwash you is already telling the story of its collapse. I... I was hoping that you and your kids would have something to do with it. The day you left the royal palace... so I returned you to your original place. But..."

"I know. Our blood bond has already collapsed...... My mother has done something unforgivable. My mother just wanted a son to be king."

"… Your Highness"

I remember my past life.

I know well how vain and uncut it is when I overlap with myself that my mother did not love me, and it is only when I encounter it.

What I call my mother's love is separate from everything else, and there is no substitute.

But even without my mother's love, there are things that people need to get over.

"Your Highness... are you going to say you have nothing. What does Princess Rubette do!!

"... Lulu...?

"That's right. Your sister, Princess Rubette of the same condition. That one cried and begged me and Machia for help knowing you were being captured. He asked me to help your brother... eh. If you accept this situation, you will truly leave Princess Rubette alone!!

………

"Brothers sometimes become more understanding about themselves than their parents. Above all, to be important...... Princess Rubette betrayed her mother. But she wanted to help you. I want you to know that what she wants most now... is not my mother, not me... but your Highness."

"... Lulu..."

Prince Alfredo wept softly.

We were barely even allowed to talk, brothers and sisters, but if we have what we want in this situation, it is still the same fate.

I'm sure they'll understand each other. From now on, this brothers and sisters will be forced to make hard choices, but with each other, we can get over it.

I am so sure.

"Prince Alfredo... please make your decision. Are you going to sit on that false throne or... get up from there and face Princess Rubette...!!

Strongly so, His Highness lit his eyes and slowly tried to stand there.

But there are countless chains attached to the throne, and he cannot stand up. This chain is the symbol of brainwashing magic.

"Don't worry. I'm here to say no to anything that disturbs you."

I broke the chain attached to Prince Alfredo with my own sword.

Black magic is black magic.

It exploits the dangerous, distorted likeness of mental space and drives the chains into the confines of space.

"Come on... Your Highness. Your flesh is already in a safe place. Ulysses is waiting for you."

"... Ulysses..."

"Yeah. For once, he's your brother, too, isn't he? Please rely on me at times. He's kind of a hobby to rely on."

"... a solid brother. I can snort that there were many voices that called Ulysses king."

"Well, Baek Hyun...... no, that's not him again. There are many parts of Ulysses that are no match for me or Machia."

I would be surprised if Ulysses had an enemy human being of spiritual enlightenment and nostalgia.

I made an exit into space with my sword and urged Prince Alfredo there.

"Let's go home, Your Highness."

"............ oh. You took care of him, Tor Sagaram."

"I... until I heard Princess Lulu's wish"

With an unspeakable grin, Prince Alfredo walked out of that dark place.

I try to get out of his mental space, too, following that.

……

But all of a sudden countless chains pop out of the dark, surrounding and tying me up.

"Tor Sagaram!!

"Your Highness!! My business is good, please keep going straight!!

When I scream like that, I close the space rift.

Prince Alfredo's voice calling me was completely deaf the moment the space was closed.

His Highness must leave this space in a hurry.

I want you to get home safely. Princess Rubette is waiting for you.

…………

When I realized I wasn't sure where I was, I was in a place like a distortion of space.

Already there is not the spiritual space of Prince Alfredo.

……

I was dragged into people's spiritual spaces, into distortions made possible by other people's interference.

"... a mirror?

There are myriad mirrors, chains, masks, etc. floating around that seem to be remnants of the ceremonial ceremonies of brainwashing magic that I chased earlier.

Well, how do we get home? I am the Black Demon King of space magic. There are as many ways as there are.

Well, I glanced in the mirror.

There is a reflection of the Black Demon King, not Tor Sagaram.

Boulder spiritual space. Do you mean to reflect what's inside?

"You are arrogant, Black Demon King. You made us wives because you felt sorry for us, didn't you?

The mirror showed Sieve at some point.

Sieve was the first woman ever made his wife by the Black Demon King. He is also the ancestor of the Twilight clan.

"... sieve"

It's a nostalgic word.

Did she always tell you to be certain?

She was good at observing and studying. He was a very capable, genuine wife who could think of things objectively.

"So I won't take the Red Witch as my wife?

Sieve in the mirror continued.

'You think the Red Witch is equal. So you don't want to put it up on the same mound as us. … and now you think of us as inferior.'

………

'But I'm not blaming you for that.... I sincerely think it was better to be an understatement than you. That's why I asked you to find me, save me and bring me here... The Red Witch is pathetic. "

Sieve's figure in the mirror grew older and older.

Once she was much younger than herself, brunette, brunette and abused, she grows old a lot faster than me.

Because I thought Sieve was better than the best, and I treated her as my rightful wife until the end.

'What you have given us is compassion. I... hope that you will emerge from your heart that you can just love without cloudiness. I believe that the only thing I can walk with is the "same size” one after all. "

Sieve said that to me when she was old and dying.

It's not like I didn't love Sheave, but she said that.

She was surrounded by many children and grandchildren, laughing peacefully.

Some of the children were never alone.

She was also admired by the children and grandchildren of the other wives. Excellent, she was my rightful wife.

But I made a big deal out of it.

That's what I said, I took my breath away quietly.

I still remember that time well.

Very impressive, the death of my first wife. Never before had I felt that my life expectancy was abnormal.

I didn't really understand Sieve's words at this time, but now I feel like I know somehow.

By looking objectively at your past, you start to realize somehow.

Why didn't I welcome the Red Witch as my wife?

I met him earlier than anyone, and he was closer to me than anyone else.

"The Red Witch is pathetic.... that person will always be lonely because he has the same power as you. If you had the power, you wouldn't say you weren't pathetic, would you?

Sieve's words are repeated over and over again, in his head.

And then my memory flew to the “last”.

I was killed by a brave man, on that snowfield at dawn.

The sky draws a line between darkness and light in the subtle shades of the morning sun. Still, the time when the stars are in sight.

It was the Red Witch McIlier who found me and held me up, stabbed with the sword of a brave man, lying in the midst of blood.

"I don't like it!! If I die to you, I... I'm really not gonna be alone...... Huh!! In a world like this, I was the only one with this power..."

McIlier was crying.

She, who was supposed to be strong, felt very weak.

But at this time, I thought about why Helena, my last beloved wife, had betrayed herself...

I truly loved Helena. I don't know why I loved you so much.

"Helena... how could you... eh"

"... torque..."

"McIlier...... sorry. I was torn by a brave man... eh. Until Helena... betray me..."

………

McIlier hugged me with his trembling hands, breathing constantly, and said in my ear.

"It's alright. Your loved... not Helena. I'm sure I didn't betray you... I'll get her back from the brave. I'll help you......"

I was relieved to hear McIlier say that.

And I said it.

"Oh...... please, McIlier"

Now I know how cruel that word was to her and how bound her destiny.

When I think of McIlier, I should have told him to stop fighting the brave men.

Me and the White Sage are gone, so all I have to do is live in peace, quiet, just as a woman.

But McIlier kept fighting the brave because I did her a favor during her death.

And destroy himself. But I killed him.

To the western continent, burn it down.
