My Disciples Know That I Am Strong - Chapter 244



Episode 37. Facial expression management completely unlocked (2)

Pajijik!

Sparks and splashes are short-lived, and a lightning bolt that spreads through the air strikes the wolves directly.

“Kaegaeng!”

With a brief death, the smell of burning flesh emanated. Maria, who killed all the wolves around her in an instant, had no time to exult, Iris shouted.

“More to come!”

“You guys are resting.”

Maria steps forward in front of Tina and Iris, who raise their swords.

Again, sparks flew from her wand.

“Lightning Field.”

Apart from exactly where we are standing, a blue carpet is laid on the floor, and sparks fly over it. Along with the crackling sound coming from all directions, the screams of the monsters in the forest were heard.

“It’s annoying to go and kill them one by one. But if you use too much skill, demons will come around.”

“Still, taking away my performance isn’t good, is it?”

Tina gave a disapproving attitude, her arms crossed and her lips pursed. She says that thanks to Maria, she can go at ease, but what does she not like about her?

“Pheheheh. Did you try to earn points by showing off your cool side to Master?”

“Uh, how did you know?!”

“What can I do? I’m thinking of killing them all before Tina has time to come out and make a big impact.”

Maria, infatuated with her sense of superiority, teases Tina.

“Oooh…… ! What a coward! I will do it next time!”

You guys know that this is the Demon Realm, right?

I’m so nervous that I’m sick to my stomach, but these guys weren’t nervous at all. He was showing his usual appearance, as if he were in a familiar house.

“There will be no chance for that! At this point, I will catch the Demon King alone—”

A monster came out of the grass before Maria could finish her words.

“Kieek!”

“Oh. Do you think there was one left?”

Tina moved first before Maria’s staff was directed at the monster. However.

“「Ascension Sword」.”

Before Tina could swing her sword, Iris decapitated the monster. The monster, whose head fell off helplessly, died while scattering his blood in the air.

“Ah! Iris! Are you going to intervene too?!”

“I just killed him because he was a threat. I’m not really interested in acting. I just want the four to return safely like this…….”

“Eight! Next is mine!”

“…… Okay. Next, teana.”

Iris nodded her head helplessly. Even as she said that, her eyes were constantly moving, and her ears were pricked up.

Looking at the way she was wary of her surroundings, it seemed like she wouldn’t have to worry about being attacked by monsters if she was around Iris.

“Okay! Master, are you watching? I will make a great performance.”

“…… But what if you are active?”

“The teacher has a crush on me!”

Iris and Maria smiled wryly at Tina’s eyes as she raised her thumb. Tina’s ignorant remarks were still the same even after she came to the Demon Realm.

“Stupid Tina.”

“Aren’t you an idiot?! Lets think! A strong disciple who can protect even the teacher, and an idiot disciple who only has a strong will. Which is better?!”

Iris and Maria hesitated to answer at such an extreme example.

“Hey, Tina. Too illustrative extreme—”

“Of course he is a strong disciple!”

“I don’t want to hear an answer… ….”

“Oh my gosh, my disciple is so strong!”

Tina snaps her fingers. She then turned her body around and pointed at me.

“This is the country that the teacher wants! Right?!”

You ask me to agree. No, forced

I looked away and said “No” Reluctantly. Replied. It doesn’t matter which way. It’s enough if you can kill the demon king, but what?

“In that case, you have to answer yes! sh*t!”

Frustrated as she gets on her knees and wraps her head. Are you a real warrior

“Mmm. Even if Tina does a great job, I don’t think her stronger teacher will like her…….”

“Oops! Is that something?!”

Tina quickly stood up.

“Then you can prove your strength by killing the demon king! If I kill the Demon King, it means I am stronger than my teacher!”

“Can’t Master catch the Demon King by himself?”

If I could catch you alone, why would I have saved you guys?

“Then I will catch it faster than the master!”

Tina declares and starts running towards the Devil Castle. She didn’t even laugh at the absurd situation of making a time game herself.

“Oohhh!!”

The spirit of not knowing English was a bonus.

“Don’t run! You idiot!”

“…… Master, will that be okay?”

I watched Tina’s back as her body got smaller and smaller, then she let out a sigh.

“Well… ….”

It’s not okay. Huh. Not okay

If you go screaming like that, it’s like declaring, ‘I’m here!’

It was an act of attracting the attention of demons and monsters in the demon realm, and the battle was unavoidable.

How many seconds had passed like that?

Koo-kwa-kwang!

Dust rose high into the sky with the sound of several gigantic purple trees not seen in the human world collapsing. Every time I hear an incomprehensible scream and scraping sound, the dust that rises like a cumulus cloud accumulates.

I was looking blankly in the direction where Tina had disappeared, and before I knew it, Tina was standing in front of me. Wiping the foreign substance on her cheek with the back of her hand, she gave me a beating.

“How long are you going to stand? Hurry! Are you done?”

I glanced at Iris and Maria alternately.

“I think I can go. I don’t feel any living creatures around here.”

“I don’t feel the fluid magic.”

It’s not okay, but I’m not worried.

As expected, he’s a warrior I raised. Shall we keep quiet?

* * *

The distance from the Kartro mine area to the Demon Castle was quite far. It was a distance that would take at least four days under the premise of going by high-speed travel.

I had to assume that it would take more time since I had to go there while dealing with lower-ranking demons and monsters.

We ran until the moon rose while dealing with the monsters, and we were able to rest at night.

“I can’t wash for four days! Maria, can’t you just teleport to the demon castle?”

“To teleport, you must know the location.”

“Queup! Why is the Demon King living in the depths of the Demon Realm? They send only their own men every day. Cowardly!”

Tina said annoyedly and poked her campfire with a wooden stick.

“I understand that you don’t want to be in a place like this for long, but it’s better to keep your pace. Now we are going to kill the demon king, not anyone else. Save your health and mana as much as possible to maintain the best condition.”

No matter how much there is no corps commander level, it was never a relaxed situation. If the demon king had a similar strength to what I had assumed, it would have been better, but the current demon king has gained cause and effect and regained some of his memories.

Probably much stronger than I expected.

“Isn’t it okay to go back and forth to the house?”

“Teleporting is also a matter of using mana after all. As long as Magi is formed like a barrier, it won’t be easy.”

Due to the nature of a hero, he has demonic immunity, and he has a stone of purification attached to his body. If he was a normal wizard, he would have been helpless just by entering this place.

“Still, it’s too far away. Even if you travel at high speed, it will arrive in four days.”

“Think about where you arrived in four days.”

If I hadn’t had the shoes Ariel gave me, it would have taken me longer or I wouldn’t have followed at all.

I ran until I was out of breath even after using the ‘high speed movement’ skill. Even though I ran with all my might so as not to fall behind the pace of the warriors, I could see them matching me.

“That is true. If Master hadn’t paced me, I’d have gotten tired quickly.”

He’s saying the opposite.

I have never adjusted my face. That I had no choice but to do.

“Check once more before arriving. Do you remember what I told you a few days ago about how to defeat the demon lord?”

I asked, listening to the crackling sound of a bonfire.

“Yes.”

“Yes.”

“Yes. I remember.”

“I’m glad if you remember.”

It was better not to talk about it in the demon realm. Since this is the Demon Realm, it is impossible to know where the Demon King is eavesdropping.

“Mostly it is correct, but there will be some parts that are wrong. Fight the wrong part and somehow find a strategy.”

“Okay.”

“Okay. I stand for 4 hours during my night shift. Divide the rest and stand for 40 minutes each.”

“Master, 4 hours alone is not fair.”

“It’s okay. Because it’s important to not fatigue you as much as possible.”

“But… ….”

“If you’re sorry, pay it back by killing the demons.”

I got up from my seat and said. The warriors looked up at me with uneasy faces and reluctantly nodded in agreement.

* * *

For four days, we dealt with all the demons and monsters on the way to the demon castle. Even though the route was shortened as much as possible, it wasn’t until the fourth night that I was able to arrive in front of the Devil’s Castle.

The majesty of the Demon King Castle, soaring high with the momentum to pierce the sky, was a level that could not be compared with other palaces I had seen in my life. Even the imperial palace of Pretium.

“It looks really big. Living in a place like this makes me very curious about how to clean it.”

Ah, does that bother you?

Look at the gatekeepers guarding the castle from within the grass.

“…… Shall we go right in?”

“For now, I don’t feel any presence around me.”

“I see. Then hand over the purification stones you have to me.”

“A stone of purification?”

I was puzzled, but obediently handed over the fragments of the stone of purification to me. I said after gathering ten fragments in one place.

“Maria, combine these stones of purification. You can do it with magic. Just like you fused attributes or magic.”

What was possible in the game is also possible here. As I spoke confidently, Maria reached her hand at her shard and released her mana.

The fragments of the Stone of Purification, which were divided into ten pieces, combine to form a sphere.

“Huh? Something that was cramped is gone.”

Tina said, looking around her own body. Iris and Maria had the same reaction. It was a carefree expression.

This is the closest place to the demon king, the source of magic, the demon castle.

It would not have been easy to overcome demonic energy with only fragments of the stone of purification. However, the story was different if it was the stone of purification itself, not fragments of the stone of purification.

If the effect of the fragments of the stone of purification is limited to the target and provides immunity and removal of demonic energy, the stone of purification has the effect of removing demonic energy from a certain area.

In other words, it can be unfolded even in the demon realm. Anti-horse magic.

“A realm was created by combining the stones of purification. You can be relatively free from the demon lord’s demonic energy.”

However, it was not known how effective it would be against the devil himself.

At least in the game, it is called an area buff, so it helps not to fall into ‘hallucination’, a mental type magic, and relatively weakens the demon lord’s defense to provide a damage buff.

Whether it worked or not, there was no reason not to use it.

“Okay then, we are ready. Tina, Iris. Cut off the gatekeeper’s throat. As soon as it is cut, it goes into the Demon Castle.”

“Yes!”

Tina and Iris jumped out at the same time, spurring the ground and jumping high. It swings its sword while falling vertically over the two gatekeepers.

The ogres reacted late and tried to avoid it, but the two cut off the ogre’s head with precise movements.

I was about to leave the grass, watching the ogres fall down without even having a chance to kill the final horse.

“Master!”

Maria grabbed my clothes.

“Master! Demons are gathering at the Demon Castle!”

“What…… ? How many?”

“I don’t know. At least thousands… No, I think it will be ten thousand units.”

I frowned. Ten thousand units…….

Are you attracted to the power of the purification stone? Or did the demon king gather the demons after knowing that we had arrived at the demon castle?

I was a bit taken aback since I had never been like this in the game, but it didn’t matter either way.

After killing the demon king, I had to deal with the remaining demons anyway. If I could kill him in one shot at this point, that was enough.

“What should I do? Shall we fight the demon king after dealing with the demons coming this way?”

“No. That’s not a good option.”

The strategy I thought of was to have the hero and the demon king collide, so that they wouldn’t even pay attention to the stone of purification. If it was at the level of the Demon King, he would be able to break the stone of purification.

However, if the demon king intervened while dealing with other demons here, let alone giving them a chance to break the stone of purification, they had no choice but to solve the battle with difficulty.

That’s why you can’t catch the Demon King.

Because the Demon King can only be killed with all one’s strength, even if one to three. There’s no way he can completely kill him in a situation where other demons are in the way.

“Whoa… ….”

It was a time of choice. Who will leave here and go to the castle of demons?

Actually, it was a choice with an answer already decided. There’s really no easy way to get to the end.

“Take Maria, Tina and Iris up to the Demon Castle.”

I said while wearing the bracelet Ariel made for me.

“Yes? Then what about Master?!”

“I have no choice but to do it.”

“No matter how much Master you are, you won’t be able to kill that many demons!”

“I know. I know, but I have to. Now that you are here, know that we are all risking our lives.”

However, I had no intention of fighting on this side without preparation.

“Tina!!”

Tina glances back at me. Seeing that her expression was not serious, she seemed to have noticed that her Demons were flocking to the Demon King’s Castle.

I drew my glass sword.

“I want you to use both sides of everything against this sword five times! Can you write it?”

“Yes?!”

“Quickly! No time!”

“Four!”

Even if I use all the means I can, I won’t be watching the demons ascend to the Demon Castle.
