〈 Demon World Revolution (1) 〉
An awkward atmosphere hung in the living room of Hubert Company.
“.......”
“...So, this is him?”
A commotion that occurred in Tarak not long ago.
At this event, which was held not long after that, the people involved in the incident at the time gathered in one place.
Heinrich and other warriors who made great contributions to solving the problem, including Heinz II, who helped at a critical moment, Diana, who attended as a representative of the victims and an official of the Hubert Company, and... Temiran McClair, the culprit of
the incident. until.
“Um, sorry. At that time, I...”
His careful apology continued through the awkward air.
When we first met, we got into a fight and it wasn’t long before we met again in such a peaceful place.
And wasn’t the victim of the incident also looking at him with wide eyes?
It was a situation that no matter how shameless a person was, he could not help but feel embarrassed.
“I’m fine. “I only heard about the situation.”
Diana responded to that apology in an adult manner.
It wasn’t that she forgave the other person because she had a big heart.
It’s just that I heard a series of circumstances from Heinz and decided to follow his wishes.
‘I was being manipulated unintentionally, and from now on, I have become a subordinate who cannot refuse my uncle’s orders...’ If you
think about it, we are now in a situation where we have to eat together, but if we keep sharpening the blade, we will only tire each other out.
When the woman who came forward as the victim’s representative accepted the apology, the atmosphere became a little softer.
Of course, if you think about it, the biggest victim was the injured old witch doctor, but since she had delegated everything to Diana and stayed away to recuperate, there was no particular problem.
“Your appearance has changed to the point where I don’t recognize you. I can’t believe that vampire grew so fast in just a few days. No matter how I look at it, it’s amazing.”
“...The energy I have has also changed significantly. “If Heinrich hadn’t told me it was the same person, I would have mistakenly thought it was someone else.”
The saint who was present also confirmed that he was no longer in danger. High elf Lydia and mage Isea observed the boy in front of them with interested expressions.
His appearance, which had been in his early teens when we first met him, had suddenly changed to the point where he looked like a young man in his late twenties.
I couldn’t help but be even more amazed because they were the ones who knew that not only their appearance, but also the source of their power and their very essence had changed.
“But he is also an immortal king. “I thought he had been relatively quiet recently, but I never thought he was plotting something like this behind the scenes.”
“I guess war is coming. Hubert Trading Company is, in name and reality, the top company on the continent. “It would have been judged that if we could shake that place, it would be beneficial in many ways.”
And the story naturally moved on to the topic of the dark Immortal King.
The heinous immortal king has gone out of his way to threaten the continent’s commerce before the start of a full-scale war.
They even tried to cause conflict by using the vampires who had implicitly promised to cooperate.
How could this not be considered a threat!
“.......”
As the group, including the saint, frowned as they exchanged opinions with serious expressions, Temiran, who was sitting across from them, rolled his eyes slightly and looked at Heinz, who was sitting with his legs crossed next to him.
[“Look ahead.”]
Then, as the new owner’s voice echoed in my head, I casually moved my gaze straight ahead and agreed with their words.
Just as I was ordered before coming here.
“Yes, and that’s not all. Among the missions I received, there was also information about the demon world...”
All the evil in the world to the Immortal King!
Anyway, I couldn’t reveal information about the God of the Abyss carelessly, and people from this world wouldn’t understand it.
Therefore, it was more convenient to blame all incidents and accidents on the Immortal King, like during the Oath of Rebellion and Revolutionary Song.
‘The karma gained this way is also quite valuable.’
Perhaps thanks to the addition of “subordinate rule,” which strengthened his control, Temiran played his role more perfectly than expected.
Thanks to this skill, he was now able to understand the situation of his subordinates in real time and even communicate with them, so it could be said to be a fairly significant gain for an ability he had unexpectedly gained.
“If it’s the demon world...”
“You have to be prepared for the devil’s followers too...”
As the serious conversation began to continue little by little, Diana, who had been sitting quietly, turned her eyes and looked at Heinrich, who was in the same room. I glanced sideways at Heinz in turns.
Two people who still smell somewhat similar.
‘It’s definitely true.’
She recalled the day she had said that to Heinz not long ago.
***
“...I’m sorry. “Can you say it again?”
An attitude uncharacteristic of Heinz, who is always cool and calm.
Diana nodded slowly as if she fully understood the reaction, which clearly showed her confusion, and opened her mouth again.
“I understand that feeling too. But you know what my abilities are, right?”
A transcendent sense of smell that goes far beyond animals and monsters and can distinguish not only physical smells but also intangible concepts such as ‘danger’ and the fragrance of the soul.
Diana, who had lived with such abilities her entire life, declared calmly but with clear conviction.
“I think you and the saint are brothers who separated when they were young.”
“.......”
“Maybe they’re twins. Although it feels different, they are both handsome. “If you look closely, the impressions are somewhat similar.”
“.......”
Heinz said nothing more to Temiran, who had an incomprehensible expression on his face.
If you tell me anyway, you won’t understand.
“Alright, get ready to go to the Zephyr Republic.”
“ah!”
“Otherwise, the performance of the contract continued to be delayed, which was a loss of face, but I am glad that the result was this good.”
The promise he made to Vice President of the Republic Kayla McClair was to find out and inform her of the whereabouts of his missing son.
She said that if she had died, it would be nice if she could at least find a body or a grave where and how she died.
‘But since we found my son alive so quickly, I guess this can be considered an overachievement.’
In this way, time delay will not be a problem.
Moreover, the fact that the son is a vampire who is completely dependent on him can also be said to be an added point.
Kayla McClair, who had been a partner until now, became a limb that was absolutely obedient to Heinz.
“Can I really go?”
“okay.”
“...It’s been twenty years. “Have you forgotten me?”
“Don’t worry.”
“ah! I think I would have looked better like this when I was younger! Is it possible to turn it back even now....”
“.......”
“Probably not. I just tried it once. But should I bring some kind of gift? “My grown son is suddenly visiting me,
so I have to take something with me...” Temiran was kidnapped when he was young, and even after coming out into the world, he was unable to go near his mother because he was acting like a puppet.
Heinz took a deep breath, pulled out a necklace-type magic tool that looked extremely expensive out of the air, and threw it at the struggling man.
“...Just take that and get the hell out of there.”
I didn’t know if it was the right gift.
We probably won’t know in the future.
Heinz, who had been looking at him quietly for a moment, turned around.
There was still a lot of work left to do.
***
A battlefield spread out under the purple sky.
Normally, it was a space where all kinds of monsters were tangled together and competing for life and death, but now a silence so subtle that it was meaningless to say it was a battlefield surrounded the son-in-law.
“Whoop!” Whoop!”
[Crrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
”
However, everyone at the scene was just not talking, and it was not cold silence at all.
Numerous eyes burning with passion, not like the madness of a normal battle, but like the beliefs held by fanatics.
They were all heading towards one being standing in the middle of the battlefield.
A great monarch who was born from the beginning to rule from above, bringing everyone to their knees just by being there.
A fatal demon that can make a crowd voluntarily rip out their hearts and give up their hearts with just a single word.
A beautiful and noble star of the demonic world that makes it impossible to even dare to harbor blasphemous thoughts.
The devil was there.
[The battlefield has been cleared, Hela. As long as you give the order, you can go to the next battlefield at any time!]
At that time, a large Balrog approached her, fell to the ground, and shouted.
He was also a high-ranking devil with the rank of marquis, but he had no hesitation in his attitude.
All that exists is clear reverence and worship.
“Hmm—where’s next, Siana?”
“This is the territory of Otorel, one of the central gateways of the Dark Nest.”
“okay? “It’s faster than I thought.”
It was natural that it was fast.
Because the army of Helheim led by Hela was not occupying the land through an ordinary war.
The army’s fighting power usually decreased as the fighting continued.
Each war not only causes numerous casualties, but also leaves enormous fatigue on those who remain.
Of course, demons are naturally more resistant to it, but they were still bound to be affected to some extent...
“So, everyone got enough rest, right? Moving right away?”
Her army was the only exception.
Immense magical power spreading in all directions with an arrogant smile.
[I will follow your command!]
“Hela! Hello! Hella!”
[Oooooh—!]
“Victory to Helheim! Glory to the great Demon King!”
The troops affected by it all started going crazy.
Not only the soldiers who had been with her so far, but also all the enemies who had blocked her path just a moment ago.
An army of demons whose numbers increase as the fight progresses and whose momentum does not decrease.
Helheim’s army regained all of Abnormal’s lost territory and invaded the Dark Nest’s mainland.
