The Hero Party Couldn’t Kill Me - Chapter 88
Chapter 13: Blanc Magic Tower (6)
“… Cowardly b*tch.”
Without time to do anything, Leviathan disappeared like a ghost.
But on the other hand, he let out a sigh of relief.
The reason why she tried to convince me like this is most likely because she wasn’t sure that she could take me down with force.
Kung. Thud. Thud.
At the same time, the stone statues that had retreated began to come back. I turned my head and looked at Mina and Rafaela.
“… Do you have any regrets about not following Leviathan?”
I asked. Mina didn’t seem to be able to answer easily, but Raphaella opened her mouth with a determined look on her face.
“No. It makes no sense to follow such a person. I’m sorry for shaking you for a moment.”
I smiled faintly. Then he looked at the stone statues coming back.
The number has increased compared to before, but now I have a sense of how to attack them.
“So, what are you going to do now? Wouldn’t it be better to run away now?”
Mina asked in a Bolmen voice.
“Even if you pass over to the body of the demon king, there is no guarantee that the demon sword will appear right away. Now is the perfect opportunity to kill Leviathan.”
“… But do we have a chance? This is Leviathan’s headquarters. We are at a disadvantage!”
I passed electricity through my sword again and slowly approached the legion of statues. I knew earlier that they were weak against electric attacks.
Then, the moment they raised their weapons high, they activated high-speed movement magic and swung between them, swinging swords clad in electricity.
Kwaji Jijik!!!
Quaaang!!!
Before he could do anything, the stone statue was destroyed in one fell swoop. And I turned around and said
“There must be a better chance than Leviathan becoming the Demon King. Let’s go.”
I headed for the stairs. Raphaella followed right after me, and Mina, who tried to escape by teleportation several times and realized that she was still blocked, also followed me belatedly.
When I came down to the lowest floor, the room Raphaella spoke of was firmly locked and a barrier was placed on it.
It is said that only the magic tower lord can break through that barrier.
“You don’t know how to destroy that barrier, do you?”
“Yes. Except for those who can enter with the authority of the owner of the Mage Tower.”
“… Then there is nothing you can do.”
There is no choice but to solve it by force.
I wrapped my sword in blue flames. And he slammed the door with all his might.
Wow!!! Wow!!!
Every time the swords collided, the transparent shield made a loud metallic sound.
“Mina! You too help!”
“… Ha.”
With a gesture of dissatisfaction, Mina summoned a shadow summoner and began pounding the barrier.
Ahhh…….
How beaten was it? Little by little, cracks began to form in the barrier.
And.

Puuu!!!
With an explosion, the transparent shield was destroyed.
Wow!!!
Then I kicked open the door to the room and went inside.
The inside of the room was oddly familiar. I soon realized that this was the room I had seen in the memory of the previous demon king.
“This is… ….”
The first thing that caught my eye was the water tank in the corner of the room. In it, there were things that looked like intravenous lines, including an oxygen injector that you would see in a hospital, floating here and there.
‘Is this where the body of the previous demon king was stored… ….’
I looked at the water tank for a moment, then something lit up below and I looked down.
The body of Marion was lying there. With her soul drained out of her body, she was as dry as if she had died of starvation.
And a magic circle was drawn around her.
‘I can’t feel Marion’s soul anymore.’
Rafaela said. I felt sympathy for her.
As a result, she died while being used as a host.
Anyway, the fact that she was found as a corpse means that Leviathan has already changed into a new body.
So where did she go?
‘Calia.’
The heart of her plan. He could have gone to kidnap Calia, who will become a hero again.
To stop her, do you have to go to her Solaum Dungeon?
“Mina, are you still unable to teleport?”
“That’s right! Anyway, there’s no Leviathan anymore! Let’s hurry!”
Mina urged. I also didn’t have a Leviathan, so there was no reason to stay.
It’s against me to fight here in the first place.
“Okay, let’s get out quickly.”
I followed her upstairs. Stone statues had already come down the stairs, but they were destroyed without much difficulty.
Mina also enthusiastically summoned the shadow summoners and smashed the stone statues.
“Almost there! Now go a little further….”
It was when I somehow reached the front gate.
I felt a strong energy behind my back.
I looked back and saw Leviathan, who had entered the body of the previous demon king. And in her right hand… A dark red sword was heard.
Damn it. Have you already awakened to the Demon King? As my expression contorted, the corners of Leviathan’s mouth went up.
“It’s already over. I woke up as the Demon King, and a little while ago, I kidnapped Calia to the Magic Tower. Ah yes, thank you for cutting off her limbs for me.”
“… ….”
Raffaella tried to open the front door by secretly manipulating a device that maintains the barrier. But Leviathan noticed right away and prevented her from pressing the button to release her barrier with her telekinesis.
“The exit was also blocked. So Raphaella. Mina. I will ask you two for another chance. Even now, betray this alien and come to me. Let’s create a utopia together.”
My hair got complicated. If I really woke up as the Demon King, even if I died and woke up, I couldn’t defeat Leviathan. Unless the demon king has a holy sword, he can’t inflict effective damage.
I don’t know if the holy sword suddenly falls on me right now.
But. Even taking that into account Do I have any options left?
I tightly gripped the sword in my hand. The sword was electrified.
And then she gave her that smug smile and charged her with all her might at her.
Nevertheless, when I charged, the Leviathan’s smile cracked slightly.
Paaah.
She threw a restraining spell, but I already predicted it and turned her sideways to avoid it.
When the restraining magic missed, Leviathan quickly retreated behind her. She hid among the stone statues behind her.
Quaaang!!!
I quickly broke the statues and faced Leviathan again. Before I knew it, Leviathan was floating in the air.
There were dozens of large rocks floating around her.
As she gave her signal, her boulders fell one after another toward me.
‘Damn it!’
I gripped my sword tightly and started to dodge the boulders at full speed.
Because of Leviathan’s precise control, the stones that missed once turned around and followed me instead of being slammed to the ground.
In the end, realizing that destruction was the only answer, I started destroying the stones one by one, swinging my sword and throwing energy balls.
Destroyed wreckage scraped my face here and there, but I blocked her bombardment well.
Even so, while casting little by little, I cast lightning magic at Leviathan.
Quaaang!!!
Leviathan stopped the bombardment and put a shield around her to block the blow.
Thanks to that, I was able to catch my breath for a while. Suddenly I was energized.
I glanced back and saw Raphaella casting a healing spell on me. I smiled faintly and looked up at Leviathan.
‘Something is strange.’
Then I suddenly realized that Leviathan didn’t use a magic sword.
Of course, Leviathan is an excellent mage, but after all, her most powerful weapon is probably her magic sword. But why isn’t she using it?
Shhhhh… ….
As if to amplify my doubts, instead of using her magic sword, Leviathan summoned several of her fireballs.
Puuuong! Whoops! Wooow!!!
Again, Leviathan fired the fireball quickly, but I continued to move her body and fire the energy ball to destroy her fireball.
Kooung! Coo!!
To block my movement, Leviathan dropped a stone statue of a golem around me, but I quickly destroyed the statue and cleared the way.
Once in a while, she tried to cast a bondage spell, but I already noticed and avoided them all.
In the end, Leviathan, realizing that he had no choice but to use a demonic sword to subdue me, threw his demonic sword at me.
I received the demonic sword by using magic to enhance the durability of the sword.
Chae Ae Ae Aeng!!!
‘… Uh?’
The demonic sword was as hard as if it had hit a stone wall. However, I felt a strange discomfort.
When fighting the previous demon king. I didn’t feel the numbness in my hand that I felt whenever I collided with the demonic sword.
Is it because Leviathan is not a swordsman?
Chae Ae Aeng!!! Chae Ae Ae!!!
Otherwise, Leviathan controlled the demonic sword and savagely attacked me.
It was obviously difficult. However, there was no overwhelming feeling of fighting the demon king in the past. So I kept questioning.
In the end, I came to a conclusion.
“This demonic sword… fake.”
As I muttered, Leviathan paused for a moment.
Her smile was distorted. But that’s only for a moment. She pushed me with the magic sword replica again.
“… What does it matter? Anyway, I will soon be chosen by the demonic sword. Calia will become a hero again, and you will not be able to stop me in the end.”
But that future hasn’t happened yet. I pushed the fake demon sword away with force.
Perhaps she gained courage from that appearance again, Mina also summoned a shadow summoner and was ready to attack Leviathan.
In response, Leviathan retrieved her fake magic sword again. She seemed to be contemplating what to do.
Quaaang!!!
At that time, an explosion was heard outside the magic tower. Then, the front door of the magic tower shook several times.
Wow!!!
Then the front door opened and the royal mages rushed in. They were startled to see Leviathan floating in the air.
“… Hey, it’s the demon king!”
“The Demon King is resurrected!”
“Calm down everyone! Because that b*tch is fake.”
I calmed them down. When they saw me, they were surprised again.
Taking advantage of this chaos, Leviathan launched a meteor storm at us.
“Everyone beware!”

Mina immediately created a shadow shield by transforming the shapes of the shadow summons. Belatedly, the royal mages also deployed a shield to block the meteorite bombardment.
By the time the attack stopped, Leviathan had already disappeared.
“… All I can do is run away.”
I bit my lip. Where did she run away
I remembered the revelation I had seen in Speth before.
When the 3 demon cards appeared, there were 2 cards missing from the deck.
One of them is the Empress. Another star.
According to Swann’s interpretation, Leviathan must be aiming for the Great War between the princess and Etoir.
“Wait a minute, aren’t you Edmund? How the hell…….”
“There is no time to explain now. Perhaps Leviathan went to the Imperial Palace or the Great Temple.”
“So, does that mean Her Highness, the princess, is in danger?”
“Maybe.”
After hearing that, the royal mages returned to the palace without hesitation. When they left the tower and hurriedly returned, Mina asked.
“Are we going too?”
“No, we go to the Great Temple.”
