I nodded back to Phyllia and gently slapped Phyllia on the shoulder.

Take that as a signal, Philia leaves me.

Beyond Filia, who looks a little embarrassed, are Arte and Flora.

Arte, with a slightly relieved face, spoke to Flora, who had replied to it with few words.

I approached Notaras and asked him how many layers this place was.

Notaras glowed the eyes behind his glasses.

"You have no idea."

Due to the collapse of the ruins, we do not know the exact current location.

"Approximately eighteen layers."

When I snapped, Notaras returned "probably" too.

Some layers are unknown, but they've definitely come quite deep underground.

Except for the sudden emergence of demonic tribes, because we were able to move on without much fighting demonic tribes.

On the other hand, that being said, quite a few adventurers have fallen off in previous battles.

Some are seriously injured and waiting for our return in the upper safety zone, while others are dead.

Cleon pulled the holy sword out of his hips sheath.

The sword glows golden, reflecting the illuminating magical light of many adventurers.

"Necropolis offensive achievement is just one step away. … I believe that each of you will do its duty. Then this ruin will be ours."

Cleon's words were quiet but sounded well on the spot.

On the faces of the weary looking adventurers, life returns.

The thought is that in a few moments we will achieve unprecedented feats. And trust in the Holy Knight Creon.

I think those two things moved the minds of the adventurers.

Unlike Arte, Creon had a desire.

Anyway, the ruin attack is about to plug into the final phase.

I whispered to Notaras.

"I asked you, Notaras"

"It's cheap," replied Notaras in a voice that included laughter.

Notaras, a former Knights of St. Sophia executive, was the most powerful adventurer on my and Philia's side.

When Cleon and Arte moved to sacrifice Philia for the resurrection of the Demon King after the achievement of the offense, the most dependable was Notaras.

Nasha and Lascaros are giving me a nod back, too.

Pfft, the traitor thing Cleon was talking about comes to mind.

There's an adventurer in the offensive team who tried to kill Cleon.

Neither am I going to kill Cleon.

That's because me and Cleon have been dating for a long time, but at the same time, there was a decision that it would be difficult to attack this ruin without Cleon's fighting power.

On the other hand, the "traitor" can accomplish this ruin attack without Cleon, and has a motive to kill Cleon.

Is there such a person in this?

My thoughts were suddenly interrupted.

The floor of the ruins trembles and a mutilating roar echoes on the spot.

The wall in front of the ruins slowly opens to the left and right, where the hall of the palace appears.

There is a tough eagle stone statue to the left and right.

According to information examined in advance in the Great Library, the hall with the eagle stone statue was an important place filled by the heavy ministers of the ancient kingdom.

This means that the throne of the Palace of Necropolis is right around the corner.

And roughly hundreds of people occupied almost every space in the hall that would allow them to enter, a united demonic tribe.

It was a serpent, with a shining scale in silver blue.

Demons defending the Dead Capital Necropolis as the Dead Capital.

Necropolis death keeper who has buried the legendary adventurers.

A book that touched on many necropolises described the name of this serpent as "Uroboros".

Only the brave Pericles beat this serpent Uroboros. That Pericles can't be defeated completely either, and I guess that's why Uroboros is alive here now.

Before this, Pericles only wrote "betrayed by God".

I pulled out the treasure sword Tetracord.

The opponent is a strong enemy.

I think we all imagine it will be a spectacular battle.

"Come on, let's knock this serpent down, what's holding us back!

Cleon spoke to the entire offensive team.

But.

At that time, a beautiful tall voice sounded on the spot.

"That's not gonna happen."

Suddenly Uroboros stopped moving.

And there was a lot of blue blood from its center, and he screamed.

I stood still, not understanding what had happened.

Uroboros seemed fatally wounded.

Somehow, a single human being stands beside the Uroboros, raging in the suffering of the severed demon.

The person had long silver hair and was dressed in bright white loose clothes.

Lord of the high voice just now.

Its face was so neat that it zotted, its silver eyes glowing attractively, but neither man nor woman could tell.

The man pulled something from under the scales of Uroboros.

Wet organs with blue blood.

It's the heart of Uroboros.

When the man grabbed Uroboros' heart with his hand, he threw it into his mouth.

And laugh with a grin.

"Welcome, to the land of the end of Necropolis, the capital of death"

No one on the offensive team answered the words.

I have no choice but to go in and ask.

"It doesn't seem like an adventurer. Who the hell are you?"

"I'm the ruler of this Necropolis. The last keeper of Necropolis is not a demon tribe. I'm human."

The silver-haired "human" spoke to us delightfully.
