The Demon King’s Seal Has Been Broken - Chapter 55



55 – Showdown

The warriors party, which was formed with difficulty after all, started as it is.

Soon after, I was able to reach the vicinity of the Demon King’s castle.

And after arriving like that, while I was looking for a time to rush in while looking at the situation, I couldn’t help but lose momentum a little bit.

“Haa… that’s quite a lot.”

There were so many Demon Lords in front of me, and the Demon Castle they were guarding certainly looked quite heavily guarded.

First of all, if you want to enter the castle, you will have to do something about them.

Perhaps sensing that the process would not be easy, Diane couldn’t help but put on a rather disapproving expression.

“So you’re not going to fight those troops right?”

“Of course not. I told you everything about the operation.”

Of course, I had no intention of facing that many troops or anything like that.

There won’t be any need to fight. Anyway, my goal is to defeat the demon lord.

If only the demon lord was defeated, the demons would be destroyed on their own, so there was no need to deal with them one by one.

And the operation was a very obvious operation.

“Arne. Antonio. Please.”

Arne draws attention with magic and binds those troops.

If it’s her ability, I think it’s probably possible enough.

Of course, as the number of troops is not small, we won’t be able to hold it for very long, but at least we can hold it down until it’s all over.

There was also Antonio, so it looked like it would be enough to stop it.

“Again, Arne. Safety comes first. If anything happens, you have to run. Antonio, please help Arne.”

“okay.”

“All right.”

“Brudo. Let’s go.”

So, I entrusted this task to Arne and Antonio, and charged towards the castle.

To be honest, it wasn’t that Arne wasn’t worried, but for now, the priority is to charge right away.

Arne’s magic began to activate slowly, leaving Arne behind and the rest of the warrior party returning to the castle.

“Hmm…”

Did it run all the way like that?

Looking back, I saw that Arne and Antonio were effectively blocking the demon army.

Quite stable and calm magic, in this state, it seemed to be enough to last for a few hours.

Without missing this opportunity, we had to enter the castle and defeat the devil.

The moment I infiltrated the castle like that.

“Brodo. Avoid…!”

Kwak Kwa Kwak!!!

A fairly powerful attack hit us.

While looking at the identity of the attack, we were able to discover it.

One of the swordsmen next to me, maybe that swordsman threw a sword at us.

“This again… well…”

And the prosecutor was someone I knew very well.

Bill, a man with the status of a knight commander whom I had seen before in the imperial palace.

He was now pointing a knife at us.

‘Hmm… It looks like they’re being dominated.’

Looking at Bill like that, it was not too difficult to recognize his condition.

A state of some powerful curse magic, he’s probably insane right now.

Now, he was no different from a puppet moving according to the will of the demons.

But it was quite strong nonetheless.

He definitely looked stronger than the Knight Commander Bill I had seen before.

Previously, well, he wasn’t that weak, but he was someone who didn’t have any particular problems.

It was strong enough to be a little annoying now.

I was preparing for battle while watching Bill like that.

“Leave this to me and go. Warrior.”

“Brodo?”

“Okay.”

Brudo pushed me on the back.

He said he would deal with it, and gave me a look as if each of them were taking on what they could do now.

“Okay…! Be careful.”

It wasn’t that I didn’t know what was important right now.

I was able to think sufficiently rationally and rationally, and when I thought so, it would be a better decision to leave it to Brudo and move on.

I fully agreed with his judgment and went ahead with only a slight worry.

The sound of a wall breaking behind you, the floor being cut, etc.

I heard various sounds, but I didn’t bother to look back.

Because it’s important to trust your friends and find the demon lord now.

In the meantime.

“Ha… what is this elf…”

Before I could go far, I had no choice but to be blocked by a certain person again.

It was the first time I had seen this elf with golden hair, elf ears, and a bow, but I knew this elf.

‘Diane.’ When I went to the elven village, I heard about an elf who never came back, and this is probably him.

‘It’s not easy because there aren’t enough people…’

I wanted to entrust him to someone, but I couldn’t.

Arne and Antonio were dealing with the soldiers outside, and Brudo was confronting Bill.

In this situation, with no one by my side, I had no choice but to fight this elf.

For me, who didn’t want to lose my strength in the fight against the demon king, this situation was quite unpleasant, but I guess there’s nothing I can do about it.

The moment I thought of ending this fight as quickly as possible.

“go.”

“Huh…? …! You?”

A truly unexpected person had become an ally this time.

I was taken aback by this bewildering situation.

“I…! I will stop…!”

The person who came next to me was a saint.

The saintess, Clara, was confronting Diane.

“Uh… well…”

In this situation, to be honest, in this situation where each and every one of the people is unfortunate, it was a situation that I really hoped for someone to help me like this.

As I want to fully focus on the battle against the demon king, I was in no position to ask for help from anyone.

However, I couldn’t help but worry.

“Are you okay?”

The reason was not that I did not know a saint named Clara.

A saint named Clara, she was quite a coward. The reason I didn’t take her to the warrior party in the past.

It was because she was a coward who couldn’t fight.

But it’s good to help me like this now, but I couldn’t help but wonder if she would be able to fight, and I had no choice but to ask her.

“it’s okay…”:

I was a bit taken aback by this question, but Clara answered.

“No more… No more running away.”

Her words and expression were so determined.

“Yes. I’ll believe it.”

He showed me that kind of face and told me to go, but I thought it might be okay.

To be honest, I still don’t fully believe in it, but I decided that it was trustworthy nonetheless.

The saintess stood here with her own determination, and she must be preparing to fight now.

I couldn’t ignore that resolution, so I trusted him.

That’s how I entered the inside of the demon castle again, and now I’m about to finally see the demon king.

“Wait. I can’t go any further.”

As expected, I had no choice but to face the last remaining demons.

Commander of the 1st Corps of the Demon King’s Army, Hazra.

Apparently, the demons that fought me before stood in my way.

“I’ll give you the revenge of that time.”

Her eyes, as if she was going to defeat me somehow, and she spewing murderous thoughts, the sense of intimidation was never light.

Probably, except for the demon lord, it is the strongest demon tribe at this point.

In order to deal with these demons, it was still not enough to be a normal opponent.

“It’s about time to come…”

So I had no choice but to use the trump number.

I looked up at the sky and waited for something.

“Finally finished…!”

And at the same time, there was an existence flying toward the castle like a bomb from the sky.

thud…!

A demon that folds its wings and lands on the ground.

The former demon king’s daughter, Trina.

She had finally arrived here.

“Are you here now?”

“Yeah. I’ve finally finished growing up.”

And he had grown up enough.

Slightly larger body shape, and considerably more powerful mana.

Compared to before, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the level is different.

“It’s rewarding to grow while doing blood bags.”

I thought I was raised pretty well.

Well, the blood I gave to him is worth a lot, so it’s only natural that I have to pay for it.

I nodded my head as I looked at Trina, who was clearly showing a different feeling than before.

If this is enough, it’s certainly not inferior to being called a ‘strong man’.

“Can I leave it to you?”

“of course.”

Anyway, just in time the last member of the warrior party arrived.

This last member seemed to be able to stop the last member of the demon army.

“What are you?”

“The demon who will become the demon king.”

“Really… I’m dumbfounded.”

The two Demons, who had a short conversation, soon started fighting, and I didn’t bother to look at them.

I walked out again, leaving the two behind, and finally we were able to meet.

“My dear. I’ve been waiting…!”

A throne in the center of the Demon Castle.

I got the feeling that I hadn’t seen the demon king sitting loftily there alone for the first time in a long time.

It felt like meeting an old friend.

“Hey…! Let’s start our showdown!”

It seemed to be the same for the Demon King.

Now, like it or not, it was time to put an end to it.
