Defense 999,999,999 Corps Commander - Defense 999,999,999 Corps Commander chapter 46

46 – Banquet (6)

“Again.”

From noble mtl dot com

I twisted up the ring.

The first monarch is sitting on the floor, staring at the amputated leg in vain.

‘It worked out rather well.’

The 1st monarch was the one that best matched my abilities.

Unlike other lords, he is a demon who attacks directly.

In other words, it meant that my reaction ability was very useful.

“I apologize, 7 lords. It seems I looked at you too easily.”

Procrastination.

1 Lord’s leg started to regenerate rapidly.

It’s not Majin Buu, how could something like that be possible?

“As an apology, I will do my best.”

The 1st monarch jumped up from his seat.

With a relaxed expression on my face, I motioned for him to come.

“Any amount.”

“Don’t be fooled.”

The new model of the 1st monarch has disappeared.

It is so phenomenal that you cannot follow it with your own two eyes.

Shortly after, a short scream is heard.

“Ah!”

When I turned my head to the side, Lord 1 was holding onto my bent wrist.

I felt a bit of an itchy feeling, but it must have hit my body.

‘This is the real automatic hunting.’

A timid laugh came out.

What does it matter if you can’t follow it with your eyes?

Ji attacks and Ji takes damage.

“You look like a moth jumping into the fire, Lord 1.”

“Shut up… !”

He frowned.

Then, I glanced behind him, as if he noticed something.

Following his gaze, I saw Ariel smiling through the defense magic.

Now I get it.

He’s conscious of the overlord now.

Come to think of it, in the original work, the first monarch wished for Ariel’s attention.

“Did you want to look good for the overlord?”

“You better keep your mouth shut.”

“He didn’t just like humans. It was omnivorous.”

“I would have told you to shut up.”

“It looks like they tried to make me a scapegoat, but it turned out to be a pity. The overlord has no interest in you. Rather, you will have a good time with me.”

With a fishy smile, he touched his lips with his thumb.

The corner of his eyes narrows.

“Seven Lords—!”

Damn it.

The floor cracked.

Yellow light began to radiate violently from the body of Lord 1.

The light was so bright that I couldn’t open my eyes.

‘I’m sure.’

The reason for this incident was a roughly expected moment.

He felt jealous of me for being in the spotlight of the overlord.

He was the kind of guy who always wooed the overlord with infinite affection, so he must have wanted to steal my attention somehow.

In the meantime, the blow was applied by several monarchs.

It has reached the current state.

‘Looks like a simple guy.’

Then I also have a way to appease him.

“1St monarch. I am familiar with the Overlord. You can help progress your relationship. So please answer my question. Which of the lords has doubts about my abilities?”

The key to this task is to find the instigator.

Even if the first ruler is captured here, the ringleader might try to harm me by mentioning some other reason.

It was fortunate that I got along well with the 1st monarch this time.

If I had a decisive battle with another monarch, I might not have been able to gamble and my abilities would have been exposed.

“You should have said that earlier? I mean, figure it out with your smart head. And you know the Overlord? You’re talking very cheeky. I’ve been with the overlord for hundreds of years. It’s fundamentally different from you!”

A white light shimmered in the lord’s hand, and a splendid spear appeared.

It was a lance of destruction that could even pierce the sky.

That really sucks.

Of course, the first monarch, not me.

Although the power of reaction is a ridiculous evil, there was one regrettable thing.

That means you can’t control your strength.

‘We must stop the 1st ruler.’

The overlord allowed the duel on the condition that they would not kill each other.

I couldn’t even imagine what terrible things would happen if I disobeyed the order.

“Stop it, Lord 1. Are you sure you intend to disobey the overlord’s orders and kill me?”

“Killing? If it’s you, isn’t it an attack that can of course be blocked?”

He began to lower his stance with a sneer.

The temperature of the atmosphere drops to a chill in an instant.

A pure white light shone from the tip of his lance.

“If you wield it, you will die. Stop!”

“You say something funny. Let’s test who dies.”

‘… What a fool!’

She bit her lips.

1 Lord’s speed is almost the speed of light.

I couldn’t even react, but there was no way to stop him.

That means you have to stand still and watch him die.

“Die-!”

Psseuk!

With the sound of the bell, the new model of the 1st monarch disappeared.

A strong wind blows through the hall as if it were a typhoon.

‘Damn it.’

It was when I thought that a catastrophic event would happen.

-Teook!

“—!”

A new type of Ariel suddenly appeared.

Lord 1’s lance was blocked so easily.

I watched her from behind with her mouth open.

“You guys should do it in moderation. Are you thinking of killing each other?”

“I don’t think there was even a promise to intervene. What are you doing, overlord?”

Ariel opens her mouth with a smile as usual.

“Lord 1, leave it at that. I’ve already seen enough interesting sights.”

“Not yet. I can still do more!”

“Enough of that.”

When the overlord spoke softly, the first monarch fell silent.

It feels like an indescribable pressure is pressing down on my whole body.

“7 Lords, do you want to do more?”

I shook my head quickly.

I can’t see a good thing if I mess around here.

“Then it seems like we have no complaints about each other, so I’ll end the duel.”

When the overlord snapped his fingers, the defensive barrier surrounding his intestines was scattered.

I let out a sigh of relief.

At least, the tragedy of the 1st monarch’s death almost happened.

I didn’t even kill him, so how unfair would it have been if I had killed him?

It was when I was thinking that.

“Seven Lords. Would you like to see me for a second?”

Ariel looked at me with a bessy smile.

I don’t feel good about this.

**

The sparring between the 1st and 7th lords is over.

The main figures were still at the place of the duel with their mouths open.

“… What did we just see?”

“I just can’t believe it.”

“… Isn’t this the first time?”

The concept of ‘absolute’ existed in the world.

Like water flowing from top to bottom.

Just as a slave cannot rise to the rank of nobility.

The absolute law is melted all over the world.

However, the concept just broke.

Humans defeated demons.

Humans are inherently designed not to be able to defeat the demon race.

It wasn’t like they could regenerate a severed arm, nor did they have superior mana and strength.

But, to be able to win so overwhelmingly against the demons.

They felt strange.

“… I didn’t win, so I don’t feel too bad.”

“Not bad? I think I will fly.”

“Humans… I beat the demons for the first time! Isn’t it natural to be happy?”

Those who were seated barely suppressed the feeling of wanting to run around.

It’s because other demons might see it.

“Ha ha ha!”

And among them, there was someone who was looking at this scene more than anyone else.

It was Gastra, the king of Langkovite.

‘It’s more amazing than I thought, 7 Lords—!’

He rekindled the fuse of ambition at the overwhelming sight that had just unfolded.

Until just an hour ago, Langkovit was a kingdom that would be destroyed anytime.

But, what about now?

The 7 Lords, who can wipe out even other demons, have become a kingdom that has acquired a huge fortress.

“Never miss it.”

Because of this, he was planning to get married as soon as possible.

At least one week.

No, within 3 days.

I was thinking of going ahead with it.

“I am curious about the expressions of the Argon Kingdom.”

He laughed maniacally with a mountain-like appearance.

**

“Why did you ask to see me?”

I followed the overlord to the reception room.

The overlord’s resting room was twice as large as the one I received.

“hahahaha. 7 Lord, do you really have to use such a businesslike tone? The two of us have never talked before, so we decided to see each other separately.”

I gazed at the overlord, unsuspecting.

I had a hunch that he was going to do something troublesome.

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

“If you have something to say, I want you to do it quickly. Because I am a busy person.”

At my words, the overlord chuckled.

I don’t understand what’s so funny about it.

“It looks like he’s busy~ he’s busy killing monsters by himself.”

“!”

My pupils shook at the overlord’s words.

When it comes to monsters, you must be talking about the Marmont I caught just a few days ago.

That means they’re watching my progress closely.

“… Were you spying on me?”

“Surveillance, I heard rumors?”

Ariel looked at me with a mysterious expression.

‘Damn it, it’s embarrassing….’

“You don’t have to be so vigilant. Did you really hear the rumors?”

I nodded.

Ariel is not one to lie about things like this.

It’s f*cking strong, so why lie?

“If you are talking about Marmont, I killed it because it was a hindrance.”

“Hot! 7 Lords answer Are you very hot? Good job. He was quite the troublemaker. How much did he eat humans despite being a monster? Thanks to you, it saved me a lot of trouble.”

Ariel said and took a sip of her tea.

I wait for her words behind me with my arms crossed.

“Well, the reason I asked to see you is simple. I have a favor to ask of you. But before that… “

Ariel gently raises the corner of her mouth.

“I heard you talking about me with the 1st monarch. Clearly, ‘The overlord has no interest in you. You’ll rather have a good time with me.’ She touched her lips, right?”

“!”

It felt like her heart was sinking.

It was a provocation made to understand the intentions of the 1st monarch.

You heard that?!

From noble mtl dot com

“I wonder what that means. 7 Lords?”

Ariel slowly thrust her face into me.

She smells the jasmine she just drank on her breath.

“What do you mean by good time? Let me know.”

I gulped down her saliva and looked into Ariel’s wide, curved eyes.
