Story of The Ancient Demon King!

Episode 18: The Demon King Wants Steak While Watching

The "sacred ceremony" was made powerful by the miserable work.

A rioting monster who doesn't know what to do because of thorough orders.

……

"Hanam. Don't miss the plane. [Swamp Demon] dies unless I tell him to. Then we are doomed. It's a matter of responsibility, gentlemen."

"... and, Second Lieutenant"

"What is it? Is it time to pull it up already?

But what Hannam saw from afar betrayed Zancok's nosey expectations.

─ Cool cool cool!!

The king of the swamp still laughs at the heart of the land.

Whether you're on the outside where the trees grow apart from the water, both Kageha and Lilia are frightened by evil laughter.

The missing treasure is coming from over there. I'll never miss it again. --The Ten Balls of Kahan

A sphere of silver from ten magical formations.

Rotating like an oversized bead at Molly's neck.

"Ten!?

……

Lilia and Kageha doubt their eyes because they know the threat of that magic.

Ten physically powerful spheres that can be freely manipulated like that. It's bigger and smoother than the one from Sornada.

Even more magical, it was spinning around with a green aura.

"Molly is much stronger, heavier and freely manipulated than me. If we touch you, pussy!! Let's make a pleasant noise and play."

"... what do you want to say?"

"I'd really like to avoid it if... it looks like it's the worst, but even if it turns into bone powder, I'll come back to life, but you guys should sit down differently?

A crushing sound like a tree cracked with incredible power.

The lizard is also reflexively looking at you.

"─ ─ ─"

Run, run. Run for the end of your life. "

Escaping from the Ten Balls of Kahan, the "Sewing Ceremony" flies like sewing among the surrounding trees.

However, Kahan's Ten Balls kicked away even creepy trees and obstacles, and pushed straight toward the "Kahan Formula".

"Ugh!!

"Lilia! Get caught in this tree!!

"The trees are fine, but don't forget me!! Hold on! Hold on! The corners are easy to hold!?

The little ones are desperate just to beat the fog and sphere passing through the tree right next to them.

"─!?

The surface of the water rises in front of the ceremony, and creepy plants fall to the left and right by bone dragons that appear like mountains.

I woke up from sleep in response to the fog and opened the jaw gate without being crushed.

Ah...

The fog slips through the bone dragon's mouth.

But then Kahan's Ten Balls... made a flashy sound of destruction.

indifferently, inorganically, crushes the skull of a skull dragon to track its prey.

――

Do you realize that it is difficult to pull away the ominous sphere, and the "pivot" swirls sharply from the surroundings of the trees to the center.

The talent is superior, the wisdom is superior, but the beast...

From the seated Molly's buttocks, the characters that remember the familiar chill were born in flashes.

"Nh!!

You didn't want to let go of your magic, so you suddenly emerged as a "ceremony".

And one with wings.

I threw a needle rain that was more powerful than before.

That looks like it could withstand a little bone. -Here. "

Kahan's Ten Balls are positioned over the sky and rotate at high speeds, shielding them into the rain that reaches Molly.

And when the spinning sphere slowed down and Molly appeared...

"............!?

There is the Demon of the Swamp, who masters the green lightning.

Trigor's Thunderspear.

An instant of electric light.

When I saw the light in Molly's hand, the "baking ceremony" was burned.

"---------!!

A magical beast falls by the water around the land after a roar in his ears.

A heated beast touches rotten water and instantly cools down and steams up.

……

"Is this... magic...?

No matter how many retrofitted lizards, it was easy to imagine that it would become charcoal just by plundering.

This overwhelming power is like... our Lord...

"Dear Left, I am here to help my master, who possesses the magic of many famous magicians and treats them freely.... wherever you are in the swamp, don't change your seat.

The natural light that can only be seen in thunderclouds, only to look up and be afraid.

No way! The monster gets the light and lightly emits it.

Who could have imagined such a deviant magic?

"... I tried to hurt the chain..."

Molly's gaze was directed toward the collar of the "satin ceremony" that contained the satin.

"... no way..."

"Mr. Hanham!! What's with the light? Report it now!! It's a liability issue!!

An artificial beast paralyzed by lightning and struggling in the swamp.

Hanham, who was watching from the woods far away, was losing his word because of the incredible power of the [Demon of the Swamp].

If I had to repair it, I thought I'd throw another shot... ─ whoa!

Suddenly Molly, who was trying to get the spear again, jumped out.

It floats across the land with a cushioned attitude to the water opposite to the "kanji style".

"What is it, Molly?"

Solanada is suspicious that Molly, who hasn't moved the field for centuries, has moved.

In the center of the land ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And on top of that...

"Eh!?

Ah, that's...

"... who are you?"

A shadow falls.

Kageha and Lilia were anxious at the same time as joy, and [Swamp Demon] looked at the boy (...) with interest.

"... hey, I'm the demon king who scouted you.

The sky, feeling the disturbing air, was clouding.

♢♢♢

A few days ago...

"............ nh?... hey, Doosan, Doosan"

Krono Mansion on the Deva King Wall.

An easy-to-move, remodeled kimono that was guarded by Doussan and Hisahide as gatekeepers.

I noticed the smell and slapped Doosan's head on the bed.

Then the burning serpent made a scary sound, causing something to happen.

"Kurono-sama is back. By the gate."

Realga pointing her finger at a few words and telling her not to carry it.

However, after Chrono asked me to take care of him, I crawled to the gate with Rélga, who had been napping on me for a while, and Hisahide on top of him.

"... that? You still haven't seen Kageha and Lilia? I wonder if I overtook you."

Chrono, the boy who walked in through the gate.

I was surprised that there were not enough signs for the two while stroking the doussan wrapped around his feet, the rearga holding him on top, and the hisahide rubbing his head in turn.

"Or are you traveling as I was told? I hope so...."

"Finally, I'm home."

"Oh, sorry, sorry. I missed Doosan and the others. Was there anything inconvenient?

"Doosan, shut up."

With Kurono hugging him from his face, he whispered.

Even though it's a snake, I feel something slightly caught by a relga that says it's noisy...

Seeing three consecutive trios like sisters and brothers makes the decision as to whether they are good friends.

"Uh-huh, Hisahide. Have you heard from your mother?

Krono was in regular contact with the mother of the Magus tribe through Hisahide. Mainly in the field.

However, Hisahide went yesterday, but as usual, he was not particularly contacted.

"Really... Then I'll leave early, but I'll get rid of them early."

"Where are you going again...?

He looks up from around his stomach and asks with sad eyes and voice.

"... the king needs a gift."

……

♢♢♢

Eh... lie, why...?

I came with Realga to the Kars wetlands.

"Lilia and that woman... have bones."

"You have bones... You, too."

After crawling forward, observe the marsh center from a remote cliff.

Bones and birds are fighting.

"You're fighting bones and birds... ahh"

I repeat what the lovely Relga says about doing the same tricks as I do, like a Kukan bird.

Eat a thick steak with a juicy aroma and sound on a baked stone plate, sliced into pieces with a knife and fork.

Incidentally, the bony meat that Lerga had just eaten was a shame, and he still had the bones for a long time.

I think the existence of a [demon of the swamp] much more like a demon king than I do, dealing with powerful magic that I have never seen on land in the center, and the monster I met before...

It's a growing season, though.

But I'll leave them there for now.

The question is why Lilia and Kageha are here.

I told you. Don't worry about the swamp.

I mean... I'm ignoring the instructions.

"... hey, why do you think Lilia and Kageha are here?

That's what I'm talking about.

Realga is confident.

"Run away."

"... I still think so. Uhhh... really?"

But... are you soliciting [Demon of the Swamp] before me to create a faction within your organization...?

No, it's not yet rebellion.

Don't be negative, let's go positive.

Imagine... the most convenient world for me...

"Hey, isn't our president amazing? I have to go ~?

Do you really think so? There is a magical king charisma. It's going to be transformed in stages. "

But you're working too hard, aren't you?

Then we'll finish one job together?

... no. Positive was enough.

But if you think about it, when you get back to the Chrono Mansion, they'll have cleaning and stuff.

Given the size of the Chrono Mansion, Lilia and the others, who have everything from food procurement to meals, are clearly understaffed.

... I see.

That's why we came here to get our own people.

"They have such big bones... cheating..."

"Mogging....."

Eating the vegetables that accompany the meat and watching... that bony monster is strong? And I thought,

You're manipulating something big like a pussy ball... dangerous!? I almost hit those two!!

Stop the hand that gracefully had lunch and wipe the area around the mouth with a handkerchief.

"... hmm? Mr. Krono, where are you going?

"Yeah. I'm going to go do some work, so will you meet the two of them over there?

He stood up and stabbed himself in the back... pulling out the black sword and instructing Realga to play like a tune while he was preparing.

Before I told Princess Erica, I brought a sword I needed to practice more, but I didn't expect it to be a full-fledged show.

"Black Sword, Curtain Drawer".

It's one of the many demon king weapons series I've made.

"... okay."

"This is leftover, but if you want it, you can eat it. Because I cut it into bite-sized pieces. If you want, you can also eat the special fried rice that I made."

"Got it!!

Yeah, that's a good answer.

I nodded to Realga, who started eating steak quickly, and jumped to the center of the swamp.

♢♢♢

"... the Devil King ~?

A beautiful black sword with a glossy hue pointing to one's place.

A pretty little boy standing on top of it.

The muscular body you can see from your clothes certainly looks like a warrior, but it's still a boy.

That's how we got here without a clue.

It was clear that he was not the only one.

(... no way, did you change the price...?

"I'm here to solicit you. Why don't you work with me?"

"... I don't know what to say when I work. Lord, are you crazy?

Molly is delayed from stealing the treasure and unleashes her magic in a frustrating manner.

Dark green magic.

"Gh!!

"Nh...!!

The magic of heaviness and nausea fills the area and suppresses the mouth of lily and lily who tried to shout the danger of [swamp demon].

Wherever I was expecting it, I saw the strength of [Demon of the Swamp] and I felt unexpected anxiety. I certainly felt in my chest that I didn't want you to come.

Even if that chrono were there, the anxiety and fear would increase while doing so.

I can't go out with you anyhow. It's good to have a rare customer. Even in Solanada... "

"Hmm, then...."

The Demon King says before the monsters become more murderous.

The handlers were stubbornly spitting that weak words would come out of the depressed chrono.

After putting his arms together on a sword and pretending to think... he laughs with an unbelievable smile.

"... just hang on tight? I'll take care of them both."

The air in the swamp was frozen.
