The Returner

“Huh? Those guys... ”

Kim Da-hyun narrowed his eyes as he saw two people slowly walking out in the middle of the battlefield.

The bombs are pouring down like rain, but no fireworks have touched down around them. It's like an eraser just wiped out their surroundings.

“Hey, are you naturally threatening me? ”

Manga, naturally spurted, pushes everything around her. I would have just seen it before, but now I can see how frightening it is to have an understanding of Mana.

Sometimes it's better not to know.

“That should do it around the Demon King. ”

“But isn't that a little harsh? I'm not trying to stop you, but the bombs aren't getting anywhere near you. Does that make any sense? ”

“Are you asking with your own eyes? ”

“That's right. ”

Yoon Hyuk-gyu put a radio on the smartwatch on her wrist.

“Looks like the Demon King has appeared this way. I need backup."

Yoon Hyuk-gyu, who lowered her hand, scratched her head.

“I think we should start this way……. ”

Instead of speaking, Yoon Hyuk-gyu pointed to the above.

“But what is that? ”

“Looks like a swarm of bats. ”

“Bats?”

I thought I could see it that way. Wings made of thin shells reminded me just of bats. The problem is...

“... isn't it too big for a bat? ”

“Looks like a genetically modified bat. ”

“Can something that big fly? ”

“It's a big plane, but it flies. ”

Something didn't make sense, but it did make sense.

Yoon Hyuk-gyu distorted her face.

“How do we stop that thing? ”

If they had learned more about magic systematically, they could have flown through the sky with a revision or a fly, but unfortunately, they were immersed in buffs or attacks.

So there's got to be a way to fly.

“They'll deal with it. ”

Goooooooooooo!

At the end of Kim Da Hyun's words, fighters fly overhead in fear.

“Apparently, they sucked their fingers, except for the bombers. They're gonna pay for their meals today. ”

‘The price of food...... ’

The battle below is somehow behind us, while the battle above does not.

The moment a fighter is hit, he will die.

Emergency escape device?

If we save those who provoke us like that, it won't be magic.

“Well, we can do whatever we want. ”

Yoon Hyuk-gyu smiled.

It's never easy to know what we're going to do. It was also a problem that they were coming this way.

I sprayed NDF in a large area because I didn't know where to appear, but I didn't think it would come this way.

“What a jerk. ”

“Good luck with that. ”

Kim Da Hyun stepped forward smiling. Seeing that, Yoon Hyuk-gyu shook his head.

Kim Da-hyun seemed like a person who wanted to die. In addition, there will be no one but Kim Da-hyun who can rejoice in dealing with the Demon King in the whole world.

“Hey!”

As Kim Da Hyun was about to step forward, someone grabbed his shoulder.

“Ah.”

Seeing Jung-hoon holding his shoulders, Kim Da-hyun felt sorry for him. We can't just run around like this until he gets here.

“When did you get here? So soon.”

“The teleporter doesn't have to be there. Would I have planned on stopping the Demon King when he showed up? ”

“I thought so. ”

“... Oh my. ”

Meanwhile, people started showing up around me. Given the blurry appearance of the middle-aged people, it looked like they were carrying people hard.

“I like that it fills up fast.... ”

Kim Da Hyun shrugged.

“I can solve this by myself, but I don't.... ”

Kuaang!

At that moment, a series of massive explosions erupt over their heads, and fighters begin to crash. There was a fierce battle in the air.

“Do you have time for jokes? ”

Kim Da Hyun silenced Choi Jung-hoon's words. I tried to relax, but now was not the time for jokes. It's a real start.

“We don't know who that Demon King is. And I never want to know. So... ”

Choi Jung-hoon shouted sharply.

“Don't give me a break, kill me! Now!”

At the same time, Ether and Mana rush from everyone's bodies.

* * *

“The Demon King appeared……. ”

Christopher makes a sound of pain. Now the real war begins.

The Demon King is only a handful, but perhaps the insiders will join the battle.

As far as we know, the Demon Kings share a certain degree of awareness of the invasion, but do not systematically move according to someone's orders.

It means Barbhace represents the Demon Kings, but he doesn't make them his subordinates.

If Barbace had said he would end it all today, it would have been so, but he would not have marched in unison like an army.

Hanging around like a hyena.

But it will definitely occupy the perimeter and come closer.

In their eyes, the sheep put themselves on one side and slammed the barbed fence around them. If they remove the barbed fence, they can toy with the flocks gathered.

All Christopher could do was pray that the thorns on the fence were sharper than he thought and that the hyenas wouldn't dare come near him.

And one of the sharpest thorns is now facing the hyenas in front of his eyes.

Kuaaaaaaang!

The sound coming from the speakers will tear your ears. At the same time, the screen flickers.

“The Alpha and the Demon King have joined the battle! ”

“Alpha attracts enemies. It appears that you intend to reduce damage by separating your Battlerealm from the normal realm.

“Damn you. ”

I hate to admit it, but that Alpha is now humanity's most reliable force.

Objectively speaking, it was an Alpha that came alone in a situation where the enemy's most intimidating forces were present and was separating them from their base of view.

I would have praised him for it, and applauded him for it, but it was the Alpha that prevented Christopher from doing this or that.

‘Damn, it feels like we have a temporary alliance with a competent enemy. ’

It was nice of you to do it well, but I couldn't be more pleased with the fact that I had to reunite with him once things were going well.

“Ah, the Alpha……. ”

The deputy who was making the report shut up.

And I didn't have to listen to the report. Christopher has eyes. The screen shows the Alpha and the Demon King's battle clearly in his eyes.

‘Glamour.'

If you define the identity of this intense tremor that flows through your body now as one word, you should call it a sense of camouflage.

There were two ways Christopher felt.

The first is that the Demon King's battle with humanity is not as glamorous as they think. In the past, when Yi Hyuk fought the Demon Kings, there were all kinds of fancy magic and scary attacks, but the alpha method was a little different.

He never rushes as if a hunter were hunting a predator. However, he was facing the Demon Kings in a series of decisive and deadly attacks.

And the second is…….

The Alpha has unilaterally driven the Demon Kings away.

“Well, how is that possible? ”

I'm not ignoring the Alpha. Before Lee Hyuk appeared, he had never missed the title of the most dangerous Talent in the world, and had never given him the best Talent position.

It is not Lee Hyuk who is best suited to the word "the strongest of mankind," but Alpha. Ignoring him is the same as ignoring humanity.

But there is also a range of expectations and respect for it, and there is a line, and now the alpha has stepped on it neatly and headed up.

Christopher, who witnessed his mythical identity, trembled and despaired.

Are we doing okay? ’

I had no choice but to raise the Alpha and its minions to stop the Horsemen.

Even though he understood it was the only solution, he had to argue that Alpha's growth was shattering his imagination.

“How did you get so strong? ”

Yi Hyuk, NDF, and all of America's talents were only one thing that could stop the Demon King. However, Alpha was able to deal with the two Demon Kings easily without much effort.

"A monster."

Maybe the real monster is the Alpha.

And ironically, it was Christopher who created the Alpha monster. Even though he is not a biological father, it is likely that his influence is more than that of the biological father.

Christopher bites his teeth tightly at the creature he created, and at the sight of a monster that may one day come to bite his neck.

“A battle between monsters and monsters. ”

* * *

“How!”

A furious shout erupts from Tulian's mouth.

His voice was horribly high and enormous like the Demon King's, but his feelings were not at all demonic.

“How can humans defeat us! ”

“... Ah, this is convenient. ”

Alpha scratches his ear.

“When I told her to learn that it's useless interpretive magic, I thought, ‘Why are you teaching me this? It's going to be a waste of time.' But I'm stressed out because I can hear you guys talking. I like this one.”

Alpha shrugs.

He glances at the Thulean arm in his hand and throws it to the ground.

“Well, don't get too excited. You still have three arms and two legs, right? Don't be so obsessed with what you've lost because you still have so much left. You have to give up your greed. ”

The Alpha giggles, but Tulian never laughs.

I couldn't understand what was happening right now, not even with his intelligence far beyond man.

There is only one.

Only one human is fighting a dominant battle against two Demon Kings. I can't say I've had a battle yet, but I don't understand why I've created this situation.

“How can humans! ”

“Ah.”

Alpha shrugs.

“That doesn't sound like your stereotypes are wrong to me. It's true that Humans are weaker than the Horsemen. And I understand how insignificant human beings can be to you. You can't ask people to respect cockroaches. It's just... ”

Alpha grabs his hand and approaches Tulian.

“You only know when a cockroach becomes human. How fragile human beings are. You're just realizing it now. ”

The Alpha has a bitter smile on its mouth.
