3.

Behind you.

The so-called sword will pop out if you shake the psychopath and cone to 5: 5. Thanks to this golden ratio, 99% of what the sword says to me is crazy or useless.

- It's not just your skills that matter when you swing the sword.

In other words, 1% contains the essence of psychopaths and cones.

Confidence! Belief in you is the most important thing.

The messenger looks solemn.

- You're just like Gura!

A Taste of Life Experience!

- To deceive an opponent, I must deceive myself first! Believe your own lies. Take care of yourself! No matter how decent you are, if you hit them with confidence, they won't believe you. But no matter how vain you are, you can only be so sure of yourself.

Oh, yeah?

- I know I've done this a lot!

Maybe the psychopath to the old age ratio was about 6: 4.

- Of course, it's because you're a 100% liar that you don't trust him or you don't trust you. So mix the truth with the truth! Mix the truth with 10% of the truth with 90% of the bullshit!

Mix?

- Come on, that's the beauty of lying. If you believe 10% of the truth, the other 90% of the goose will come out on its own!

Indeed.

- Remember, zombie. Gura is confident!

"Hmm."

I looked right in front of her.

Soldiers have come from all over the continent to catch the Demon King Esther... Among them, the soldiers of the Aikim Empire, who were in charge of the vanguard, looked back at me with a general leading them.

If I did not deceive them, my side would be in danger.

“Former Emperor... ”

“But that sword is definitely.... ”

"Why is there a predecessor in this place?"

Aquatics.

Some of the soldiers lash out at me as if they were suspicious. The Aikim army bowed their heads quietly, but that's it. Soldiers with different affiliations look suspicious. As I suspected, the Empire army is at its limit when the Guardian Sword's medicine is consumed.

“By the way, are you the former Emperor...? ”

The leader of that Imperial Army carefully looked at my face.

“Can I ask you a question? ”

“Something.”

“The reason we're here today, as I said, is to subdue witches. How did the Emperor's predecessor get here...? ”

I closed my eyes for a moment.

‘Courage is confidence. ’

I opened my eyes and cried out.

“Gentlemen! I have already subdued the witch! ”

My voice was echoing in the wild path of Acacia.

General Sarvas Aikim was flawed.

“Yes, yes? You've already subjugated them? What the hell...? ”

“Look over here! ”

I got out of the way. Then I saw the figure of the Angler hiding behind me. Someone recognizes her and shouts, "I already know what she looks like."

“Oh, it's Estelle! ”

“The Witch of the West! ”

“I've seen it before! That's definitely her! ”

“Burn the witch and kill her! ”

Angler gasps and winks.

But I said no matter what.

“Angler.”

“Yes...? ”

“Come and kneel before them. ”

"......."

Unyielding command.

The Angler, who had been demolished as my white walker, had no power to disobey orders. She stumbles to her knees.

It didn't end there.

“Bow your head. ”

The angler bows.

“Get on the ground. ”

"......."

The angler lands on the ground with a trembling hand. Is it anger or humiliation? Whether he bit his tongue with his teeth or not, the Angler's cheek is deeply slashed. A little later, blood spilled from my lips fell down my chin line.

“Put your forehead to the ground. ”

“Ugh…”

Angler followed my orders.

The soldiers breathed and watched the former Demon King crush their foreheads to the ground. The breath of an angler blends with a little more anger and humiliation. Nevertheless, to protect her little paradise, she obeyed my command.

A noble scene at some point.

I gave strict orders to the Angler.

“Keep your feet firmly planted in front of you. ”

Silence.

For a moment, the path to Acacia Forest was static.

"...... Yes?"

Angler turns his head and looks up at me.

He looked like he had just heard something wrong.

I frowned.

“Can't you hear me? ”

“Oh, uh...? ”

“Enforce the forward roll! ”

The anglers flinch and reluctantly follow orders. In other words, he placed his hands on the ground and rolled forward once.

Degur!

A little body rolls down the pavement, and a blonde hair longer than the body is scattered, sweeping up the Acacia petals on the floor. After rolling one round like that, the Angler still looks like he doesn't know English.

“Hmm.”

I nodded.

“Now stand up to the water hyacinth. ”

"......."

The Angler looked back at me once more.

He was suspicious of the state of mind of his new master.

Of course, I didn't pinch a single eyebrow.

“Don't you think you can stand on a water hyacinth tree! ”

"Hic."

The anglers shudder, placing their hands on the ground. And I slowly stood up to the water nymph tree and I said, "Ahh!” I felt overwhelmed by my strength. "Acocco...” The anglers groan as if they were swimming on the bottom.

Either way, I followed orders with a solemn voice.

“Make twenty jumps! ”

“Ten sitting and standing times. Execute!”

“Ten push-ups as soon as you're done! ”

“I command you to stand up twenty times! ”

“Hold plank for 20 seconds! ”

After a while.

“I can't do this anymore, Joo... I can't move... ”

The former Demon King stretched out, losing the power to grip his fingertips.

Tears were in my eyes.

"Hmm."

I looked back at Sarvas Aikim.

“Is that understood now? ”

Sarvas Aikim's mouth is wide open. In fact, not only the general, but also his soldiers looked similar. I looked at the Angler, who was crying like a little child, and the continental army looked at him with a silly face.

“My ex-wife. What the hell... ”

“Like I said.”

I empowered my eyes.

“The witch has already been subdued by me. No matter what happens now, the witch cannot disobey my orders! ”

Of course, and I added.

“It is impossible to do any more harm to the people of the continent. Gentlemen, you have every right to be completely relieved of the witches! ”

Soldiers huddle.

The squadron shakes and the chiefs get confused.

“Well, if that's what the ex-wife says... ”

“No, wait! ”

Sarvas Aikim, who obeys the authority of the Sword, seemed to want to believe me somehow, but the other commanders generally said, "What nonsense is this?"

Among them, the paladin shouted, taking a step forward.

“What the hell are you doing!? We're here to subdue the witches. ”

“No. The emperor's ex said that witches were already subdued..." ”

“I can't believe it! ”

“You, on the other hand, cannot be trusted? Didn't you see the Witch... who fulfils the dicks so thoroughly as to be commanded by the Emperor's ex? ”

I decided to become Sarvas Aikim. The power of the sword was great.

The paladin said he was going crazy and jumpy, but he actually jumped and shouted.

“So how do you believe it...? No, in the first place! Wasn't there just one knife after the evidence that the young man was the one who killed the Great Orient? Just because of one knife..."

“A fucking knife? ”

Sarvas Aikim's speech increased.

“A knife!? Oh, my God. Are you questioning the authority of the Crown Prince who built the empire? That sword is proof that we are favored by the goddess. How dare you!”

The paladin flinches.

“No, General. Calm down.... Whatever the HQ has to say,”

“The Emperor took his sword and set out into the wilderness! Running through the fields, leaving behind footprints in each city, climbing volcanoes, burning waterfalls, piercing mountains! You have finally raised my empire! Your ancestors were all with the Emperor, so you all owe the Emperor a debt! By the way, a fucking knife! ”

“No, that's not what I meant..."

“If not, what are you talking about! ”

“Church, the Pope has given me an order. A strict order was given to subdue the unusual witch... But because of a word like that,”

The Imperial General shouts.

“A word like that! You are questioning the words of the late Pope's orders! ”

Wow.

“Well, what... ”

The paladin grumbles.

It took exactly two seconds for the insanity to evolve into anger.

“How dare you question the authority of the temple!? ”

“You first doubted the power of the Sword of Protection! ”

“Oh, great! I see! Perhaps the three princes of your empire don't need the Pope's endorsement! ”

“Ha, that's a declaration of support. The Emperor's ex has already appeared and subjugated the Witch. The goddess's affection for the Empire and her resignation has nothing to do with it! ”

“That is exactly what the three Popes' faction stands for! ”

Barack argues with the Imperial General about the paladin.

I smiled with joy in my heart.

‘Very good. ’

There are certain things to be aware of when groups come together.

that once there is conflict, you run for destruction in a heartbeat.

‘There's no need to go far. ’

When our hunters went up to the 12th floor. Even then, there were only eight power structures.

Me, the swordsman, and the five guild masters, one by one. and military power from 8th to 10th Contribution Point.

Together, we were under a foreign purpose of 'raiding the tower’, but never one solid mass.

There was a pile of them. There was disbelief.

That's why [Demon King's Reward] was ruined, even though there was only one variable.

"Warriors, climbers of the tower.

The moment the 11th floor opened, I remembered what the goddess hologram said.

From the eleventh floor to the twentyth floor, you will face a test. The Trial of Faith. "

I laughed myself to death.

The test of good faith.

"Not only the Hunters, but also the residents of the tower. ’

That way the world will be more equitable.

4.

Empires and temples have entered the [test of faith].

The other forces also began to interfere because of the vagrancy.

“Ha, everyone…. This is not the time. ”

The elf ranger commander from the fairy forest sighed.

“Should we make sure that the witch is really in control of that young man? Even if you are a foolish human being, please hide your time and place. ”

He did not know whether to stop the fight or to fan it.

Of course, it didn't help.

“In a word, yes. Could it be that the temple fell in love with autonomy? The guardian sword of the emperor Aikim is a sermon from the goddess of guardians worshipping in the temple. Doubting the power of the Sword will soon doubt the power of the Goddess. That's why people who live short are so foolish... ”

“What!? Are the Elves looking at us like that? ”

“That's why the nobles can't be trusted! ”

I even got in the way.

“What are temples and empires doing?! You brawled in front of us to honor the treaty! ”

The commander of the Valiant Veterans from the volcano shouts.

“Fight like a warrior! What are you going to use your weapons for? ”

They were just single-celled.

According to our hunter... yes. Serpent of the Celestial Moon.

“The League of Liberties believes both the Imperial Sword and the Temple Hammer are correct. But there are also more righteous people. If you have any suggestions, I'll be open to them. ”

“That's why these farmers... Oh, so when can we pillage that town? You want me to rob you? So I came as far as I could."

“Hey, guys. Guys... The Witch's lair is right in front of us... ”

An Armored Merchant casting [Jessitis] openly, the Nomad Chief grumbling as he grows up horses.

Only the first firecracker, the Lord of the Minority Kingdom, who was closest to the Angler's Paradise and was desperately trying to subdue it, was full of positivity.

Such a sudden situation.

- Khh!

On the other hand, my sword became that relaxed.

The messenger folds his arms and grips his head.

- I understand why Anglers put up a fight with Hunters. This tastes like shit!

"I admit it."

Honestly, it was honey jam.

But, of course, they weren't the only ones full of trolls.

“Ha. Gentlemen. Get out of the way!”

According to us, he's the so-called "Vigilante". A mediator. After wanting to clean up the mess and destruction somehow, he was, of course.

The Lizardman Wizard from Mermaid Falls steps forward.

“What ends up being a problem in the end is simple. I,”

The Lizardman Wizard pointed his finger at me.

“Is the young man really the emperor's ex? I wonder if she really is a witch. Is it true that the Emperor's predecessor subjugated the Witches and captured them? Just check these and it's over. ”

The paladin of the Temple, who was tired of arguing with the Imperial General, frowned.

“So how do you know that? ”

“Don't worry. There's always a way with a concubine. ”

The Lizardman Wizard places a fork in your lap.

In her hands is a blue orb that seems to have condensed the deep sea.

“This is a treasure trove of souls from the Mermaid King. ”

The Lizardman Wizard was very serious. It was as if you were fortunate enough to see such a treasure.

“If you drop a drop of blood here, you can tell if the owner of the blood has a [good soul] or a [evil soul]. If you have a good soul, it will emit a white light, and if you have a bad soul, it will emit a black light. ”

Mmm-hmm.

So, the Vigilante and the Swordsman are all nonchalant? ’

- Yeah, I think so. Demihumans make those mulberries well.

The man behind me and I were at peace. The mermaid king's treasure trove was magnificent... But it's nothing new to us.

The Lizardman Wizard was confident that he had no idea what was inside of us.

“Here! If that girl is truly a Disguised Witch, and you are truly a Prophet of the Apocalypse, accept the trial of this prison! ”

The Lizardman Wizard raises the vault.

“The evil you've done. The good you've done. Prison will prove everything! ”

“Good.”

I nodded gently.

“Try all you want. ”

“Don't regret it. Because, as I said, Prison will reveal your soul as it is. ”

“The cracked floor is long. Are you running away?”

The Lizardman Wizard's snake's eyes are sharpened.

“I hope that confidence isn't a bluff. Well, first, I'm going to test that girl's soul. ”

The Lizardman Wizard approaches us at once. She grabs the Angler's wrist. Then he sharpened his fingernails and scratched his palms.

Blood flows from the palm of my hand.

"Hic."

The angler flinches. A dark red drop of blood trickled down into the Mermaid King's Treasure.

Aaaaah!

Bogey splashes black at once.

“Oops!”

“Oh, my God.”

The commanders who were watching the soul test were frightened. The color of the dungeon was not ordinary black. The color of the underwater gangs. The black shadow twitches, as if a black serpent were twitching.

“Such an evil spirit...! ”

Even the Lizardman Wizard in charge of the test swallowed a saliva.

“It's unbelievable. How many felonies and murders.... This shouldn't exist in the world. Such a cursed creature... It must be a witch! ”

Tuck.

The wizard quickly lets go of the Angler's wrist, as if avoiding the Old Testament. The eyes of the Wizard looking at the Angler were filled with enormous contempt and fear.

“No, not even a witch. It must be the Demon King!”

The angler shrugs slightly.

The mood has changed. Is it because the Lizardman Wizard announced the existence of the Angler? The soldiers' whistling subsides. The commanders stopped bickering and stared at the anglers horribly. The more I did, the angler shrunk, and he slapped me behind the scenes.

“Now it's your turn. ”

I was naturally caught in people's gaze.

The Lizardman Wizard raises long fingernails.

“Pretend to be the Emperor's ex. Are you ready? ”

“I'm always ready. ”

“It's useless to pretend.... Now, give the concubine a hand. ”

I gladly reached out my left hand. Tiny! Lizardman's fingernails flare up like gills in the passage.

Red blood flows through the cracks. My blood drops quietly fell into a dungeon that was blackened by the blood of an Angler.

And...

“Ah…?"

There was light.

“Huh, huh...? ”

The black energy disappeared from the prison like a wash. Not only that, the white glow clumps together and brightens, finally spreading around.

Paaaahhhh!

The path of Acacia Forest turned white in an instant. A little scream erupted from everywhere. The soldiers were surprised and blindfolded, and the commanders covered their faces with their palms.

The same is true of the Lizardman Wizard in the Vault.

"Well, how..."

Her mouth twitches and twitches.

“Wait, what is this soul...? ”

“What a mess!? ”

The paladin shouts.

“The droplet sent by the current king! Why is this light radiating from the prison!? ”

“My soul..."

The wizard mutters without even looking back at the paladin.

“How... How could I have saved so many lives, so white, it's... it's... it's really..."

Ah, says the Lizardman Wizard.

“This… is the light……! ”

Yes, it is.

I was the light.
