Surviving the Reverse Harem - Chapter 106



106 – Sudden Return (7)

Even the brave knights who stood at the forefront, and the wizards who practiced magic behind the scenes, giving their lives.

Even the weak soldiers who shook off their fears to protect their families.

Citizens who sent food even though they were starving to death because they had nothing to eat right now.

The nobles who devoted all their family fortune to maintain the army in order to fulfill their duties as nobles.

Robert and Heshkel stood here where everyone died.

“Chwiik. I’m at my limit now.”

Orc Heshkel, reincarnated 99 times, laughed hard.

“Heshkel…”

Heshkel’s help was great in fighting and winning against the demon lords invading Middle-earth.

Robert wouldn’t be able to stand here if it wasn’t for his mythical military strength, who was able to fight the demon king alone.

“Chwik. Don’t look at me like that. I’m not dying, I’m only going to the next life.”

– Heshkel’s soul must now be at its limit…

The holy sword murmured in pity.

“Chwik chwik. I don’t think our fight was in vain.”

“I think so too. There must be a reason why the goddess didn’t come forward until the end.”

Unlike her previous life, even though there was a situation that could cause great damage to her demons, the goddess did not appear, conserving her power until the end.

If the goddess who cared for her middle-earth like her child acted like this, it was clear that she had something to aim for.

And believing in the possibility of that opportunity, Orcs Heshkel and Robert struggled until the end.

The moment Heshkel lowered his head, Robert hesitated.

“I finally killed all the demon lords who invaded Middle-earth…”

The great ax in Heshkel’s hand fell to the ground.

Now, out of all the races in Middle-earth, only one survivor was Robert.

– Robert…

Robert was wrapped in holy power as if a holy sword comforted him.

Now that the invading demon lords have been killed, there is no existence in Middle-earth that can kill Robert.

However, it is also impossible for Robert to kill all the demons in Middle-earth.

An enormous number of demons have already crossed over to Middle-earth from the open dimension, and this place has already been their home for countless demons.

Just as humans in the past were afraid of the demon king.

The inhabitants of the Pandemonium were now afraid of the hero, Robert.

“I don’t think another demon king will come to kill me.”

“Because Middle Earth has already been occupied by the Demon World.”

Knock.

When he raised his head, raindrops fell as if he was shedding sad tears.

They were simply wiped out because humans were weaker in the struggle between races.

The blue middle-earth, where numerous races such as humans, elves, dwarves, beastmen, fairies, and orcs lived, has turned into a place full of pitch-black demons.

I already knew this would happen, but I felt sad when this moment came.

“The only thing different from what I expected is that I lived alone…”

Robert moved on with a feeling that was no different from the clear sky where it was raining silently and drizzling.

Will there be a reason for a warrior who has nothing to protect to live?

It was thanks to the holy sword next to me that I was able to hold onto my spirit at least now.

‘I’m sure I’m in the same middle-earth.’

The feeling of changing from a protector to an aggressor was truly indescribable sadness.

Spread the momentum far away.

The momentum, which had been extended for a long time due to Robert’s will, returned with various information.

The city built by demons was crowded with demons.

On the main road lined with 5-story buildings, there are people who use the torch to buy things.

Young demons who buy and eat small snacks.

Demons in silk clothes and demons in shabby clothes were mixed, and red lanterns were shining brightly at the corner of the street.

Contrary to the ferocious spirit of slaughtering humans, their society was full of vitality.

‘They have prospered this much in a short period of time.’

‘To them, I must be the demon king.’

Robert returned to the mansion he first possessed.

From noble mtl dot com.

Robert lived alone in this place where the demons’ army had already swept away and only the skeleton of the mansion remained.

Sometimes, those called demon king candidates came to lead their colleagues to subdue them.

I have been sitting on the throne for quite some time.

To be recognized as the Demon King.

To gain fame.

To get revenge.

Many demons came and fell on this spot, and only the swords and spears and magic wands they boasted of were piled up tightly to form a small mountain.

As usual, it was time to play the violin after killing the demon king candidate and his colleagues.

“…?”

I felt a strange energy in the corner of the mansion.

I walked around the mansion, which was already half torn down and decrepit over the years.

The place where Robert’s steps stopped was the room where he awoke from his possession.

Kiki.

When he opened the shabby, rusty door, a frighteningly black hole greeted Robert.

“This is…”

In his previous life, he was similar to the hole he went into.

What was different from that time was that the hole was too small.

I looked at the hole so small that I couldn’t even get into it.

As I was contemplating whether I should send in a holy sword, small notes came to my mind on the violin.

‘Are they the spirits of the other world?’

Fighting with demon lords and crossing several walls, I felt their existence.

If you play the violin for no reason, it will appear before you know it and dance round and round around you.

One of Robert’s few pleasures was the dance of the cute and small spirits in this place where there were only companions and holy swords.

‘I haven’t played the violin yet, but they show up.’

It’s been a while since I learned about the existence of the spirits, but they only appeared when Robert played the violin.

Appearing for the first time without the rhythm of their instruments, they circled around Robert with a chuckle.

One of the spirits danced and touched the black hole and disappeared. The hole got a little bigger.

One by one, the spirits started moving toward the hole, and the hole gradually grew big enough for Robert to pass through.

– Robert Now!

As the hole grew and swayed unsteadily, the holy sword hurriedly spoke.

Will it return if it passes through this hole?

Suddenly, I remembered Orc Heshkel, who returned 99 times.

I realized how strong a warrior he was as he constantly took on challenges even though he knew he would fail.

The stronger he got, the stronger Robert felt it.

Even if you return as it is with this power, it is impossible to save Middle Earth.

Danjeon All Robert could do was to delay the time when the races in the middle world would perish.

‘I don’t want to return.’

It was a terrible thing to experience the destruction that had already been decided over and over again.

However, the spirits sacrificed themselves in front to open the road, and from the side, they urged the holy sword to enter quickly.

‘Is there anything special…’

He sighed and entered the black hole.

Robert felt strange when he arrived with a little cry.

‘It’s not a regression. And…’

“This acrid air…”

It was a familiar atmosphere beyond Robert’s old memories.

‘Is this a dream?’

Looking at the smoke-filled air and tall buildings, Robert thought it was a dream.

“Demon King…?”

There was a species that did not fit into the landscape like Earth.

It was the demon king and the demons.

The images of them slaughtering humans under the orange street light were as foreign as the flames blooming in the snow.

The warrior’s eyes, which had become dim after losing something to protect, gradually regained vitality.

– Where is this place?

Robert smiled and said to the Holy Sword, who was puzzled.

“Let’s deal with the demon king first. Help me.”

Seonggeom smiled and said at the lively warrior he hadn’t seen in a long time.

– Of course!

Grand Master.

The end of the power that can truly transcend species and reach beyond the sword master, which is said to be the human limit.

Robert reached the end of that great stage.

Even among the demons, he was called a great warrior and was feared.

The holy sword, which had grown stronger alongside such a warrior, fully opened its power.

A brilliant sun rose from the sky that had turned black due to demonic energy.

Faaagh!

A lump of divine power that appeared majestically while driving away the pitch-black demons illuminated the city stained with demons as if purifying it.

Koo-woong!

At the same time as Robert descended from the magic circle floating in the sky, all the demons around him were split in half.

With that overwhelming power, the demon king tensed up and took a stance.

[I’ve heard rumors about you several times. Zara with silver hair and a holy sword. There can’t be two people as strong as you.]

[Are you a fallen warrior in Middle-earth?]

The demon king, who tilted his head several times while looking at Robert, continued.

[But why are you coming out of the magic circle spread by the devil?]

[What. Does not matter. No, it’s rather good.]

[I heard that several low-ranking demon lords were killed by you. What a shame. I’ll let you know that today’s high-ranking demons are different.]

Despite having never fought anyone as strong as this other than the gay demon king, Robert moved forward.

Is the devil omnipotent like a god?

Killing some of them, Robert realized that was not the case.

He’s just someone with enough power to be mistaken for a god.

Robert, who had become a monster while building rank with them, raised the holy sword.
