I Became the Burden of a Conscienceless Party - I Became the Burden of a Conscienceless Party chapter 158

158 – The Pursuit (3)

Chase (3)

In the sky, the commander of the legion and the twelve thousand are fighting, and on the ground, other dragons and demons are fighting.

And I can confidently say that the fight between Belphegor and Rapha could annihilate those in that realm, depending on where it takes place.

Either way is not good.

We need both commanders and soldiers.

Because war isn’t something you fight alone.

The Dragon Clan is not the one who protects the world. However, if it is Rapha’s order, they can easily give up their lives.

In such a situation, it is difficult for Belphegor, who must invade the human world and take its place, to simply give up on either side.

Legion commanders are needed to deal with strong enemies. After the occupation, a large number of soldiers are needed to cover the remaining forces and a wide area.

“your majesty!”

“aha?”

Belphegor is not very wise. She is impulsive and tends to solve most of her problems by force.

However, he knows very well that that is his weakness.

I know full well that there is no need to get hung up on something you cannot do.

That’s why she kept someone by her side who would think for her.

“4km to the west! There won’t be any damage to the military there!”

“Okay, good job. Lilith.”

Belphegor had no doubts.

There was no reason to be suspicious. That’s why I decided to lead Rapha straight to the place Liris had told me to go.

Of course, since the opponent knows what Belphegor’s plan is, he won’t just go along with it… … .

thud!

The blue flames that devoured the world engulfed the two people nearby.

Belphegor doesn’t know. He doesn’t know what power he has taken away.

However, even for someone like her, if she has felt that power for a long time, she can understand it to some extent.

If you’ve heard it through tradition beforehand, you can imagine it to some extent.

And a ‘miracle’ is the ability to make such imagination a reality.

“you…….”

La Pa is astonished.

As she was trying to buy as much time as possible by biting Belphegor, she faced the worst situation.

Even though she was paying attention to Belphegor’s actions, she moved in the blink of an eye. The place she was standing now was none other than the bottom of the cliff.

It is a rough, uninhabited area 4km west of where Lilith had directed us.

But that didn’t matter now. The problem was that she was dragged in without even being able to react.

“How did you… … have that power! You… … How did you… …?”

A god who is said to save those who pray earnestly.

A transcendent being who performs miracles. The basis of that power is… … .

“How can you use that?”

A power that transcends a world where no resistance or warning can be detected.

The karma of the ascetic Kapilavastu who set out on a journey to save the world, which even Rapha could not follow.

A special ability that only a god can possess, to reach beyond and return.

“Is it so strange to use the power you have?”

“… … Don’t make me laugh. There’s no way I can handle it if I have it.”

My heart is beating and my blood is flowing.

But knowing that doesn’t mean you can change the way your heart beats or control the direction your blood flows.

I have it. I know it. But, I can only observe it, I can’t control it.

Making that possible means reaching the realm of the divine.

What made Cheon-shin special was that he had walked that path his entire life. He had walked under the blue sky and practiced asceticism.

Because I walked the path toward heaven, free from bondage and the seven emotions.

“But, you don’t know. You, who was just lazily sleeping on the throne, wouldn’t know… … .”

Genius? That’s not the realm of it.

“No… … You from the beginning… … Yes, that’s natural… … . Even so… … .”

The reason La Pa took notice of Belphegor was because she had stolen the power of the celestial gods. That great power was in the hands of an ignorant fool. That was why it was difficult.

But she didn’t think about it.

“no way……?”

La Pa doesn’t know.

There was no way of knowing how delicious Belphegor’s comprehensive estimate reflected in Esmeralda’s eyes had been.

Esmeralda didn’t trust Ra Pa, and Ra Pa also found Esmeralda’s abilities annoying.

But she had to know.

If a warrior appears when a threat comes to the world, wouldn’t the abilities necessary to resolve that threat also blossom?

Yes, La Pa should have taken note of what Esmeralda saw in her eyes.

At the very least, the ridiculous power gap should have been clearly recognized.

“From the beginning, you… … .”

“You talk a lot.”

But, I didn’t trust him.

Because I couldn’t give you confidence.

The most important information that needed to be provided to resolve the issue.

“Nana, the power on par with the Heavenly God… … .”

I knew that Belphegor had crossed the line.

That would be the case, since Belphegor had already surpassed the First, who was presumed to have surpassed the wall at that time.

That means she’s in the same realm. But… …I never thought that realm would be on the same level as mine.

She was so inconspicuous that she lived as a faint presence that no one could even tell of her existence before she became the Demon King.

“Oh, really. This one is a little… … .”

Rapha is an evil spirit.

All kinds of warriors rose up to slay her, and her original sin often strangled her.

But she survived. She always has, and she always has. She overcame it all.

That is why she was able to establish herself as the only evil spirit to descend into this world.

“It must be tough.”

So this time it’s the same thing.

La Pa is not a noble being. He is an ugly, mean, cowardly being who has even lowered his pride.

And that appearance also becomes her strength.

***

Legion Commander First discovered a dragon that was trying to take on him alone.

For some reason, unlike other dragons, it polymorphs into a monster with six arms.

The new leader of the Twelve Heavens, Shiva, the Heaven of Great Freedom.

“You know you are outnumbered, yet you still want to face me alone?”

“I knew you thought we were idiots, but did you think we were idiots who couldn’t even tell the difference between the two?”

“No, I was just wondering. If you face me alone, you will surely die.”

“ha ha ha!”

First’s point was correct.

If Shiva fights the First, he will definitely die. If he fights with everyone else, nine out of ten will die, but it cannot be said that there is no chance of winning.

Yet the reason he faces the First alone.

“Even if my death is certain, isn’t there still a probability in the process?”

“… … .”

First remained silent as Shiva spoke of his own death as if it were a matter of no concern.

The opponent’s goal is not to win.

It is clearly moving to obstruct this goal.

If that is the case, then the process that Shiva spoke of is… … .

“Do you think you can consume me?”

“There’s nothing I can’t do. Even at this moment, I’m consuming you. So, has your doubt been resolved? How many minutes did it take to resolve that doubt?”

“… … .”

The purpose is to kill time.

In that case, just hanging out like this is beneficial to the other person.

When First learned of this fact, he did not delay any longer.

“I see. We can’t afford to delay any longer.”

We don’t know what our opponent’s intentions are. We don’t have enough information to judge what he’s trying to do by stalling for time.

If so, there is only one sure solution.

“die.”

At that moment, the blood flowing from the fingertips of the Legion Commander First began to dye the sky red.

***

“Okay. I guess it’s not too late.”

After hearing the information from Third, the warrior party immediately followed the Demon King’s army. They moved as quickly as possible, and even discovered that the sky was red and the space itself further away was dyed blue.

Up to this point, everything was going according to plan. No, we were able to catch up with the Demon King’s army much faster than planned.

This is because it is not a powerful individual who moves, but a legion that moves.

However, if something goes according to plan, there are bound to be some things that go differently than planned.

It is common to encounter situations that are different from what you had previously heard about.

“That’s strange, Mr. Lacrima. What’s going on?”

“That’s right… … . Why is there a guy here who shouldn’t be here?”

Esmeralda looked up at the red sky spreading out in the distance, then slowly lowered her gaze.

There was white there.

White spider webs were spread out.

The spider web spreads out like this, changing its shape and location as if it were alive, creating a maze.

Esmeralda couldn’t help but chew her lips at the pure white color that filled the surrounding area.

“Legion Commander Eight… … .”

Mercury’s master.

According to the original information, the spider demons that were supposed to be guarding the Demon King’s castle were actually guarding the rear of the Demon King’s army.

It’s as if they had prepared in advance for the snow storm, and even the preparations for the water storm were perfect.

“It’s difficult… … .”

The figure of Legion Commander Eight is invisible. Even if you burn the spider web with Garnet’s flame, if it gets to that point, the opponent will notice this.

If that happens, other generals or corps commanders may step forward.

The identity of the warrior party is the assassination squad. The purpose of the warrior party is to intrude.

But isn’t rushing in here with a large-scale display of firepower just advertising that we’re going in?

Besides, Legion Commander Eight will have no intention of dealing with a party of warriors.

He is only protecting his allies through Mercury and detecting someone’s attack. He is likely to remain hidden until the end and not show up, so catching him while he is hiding on purpose is just a waste of time.

“You said that if you touch a spider web, you react immediately?”

“Yeah, I guess so.”

This vast web is connected to Eight, so anything that touches it can be sensed.

In fact, the option of taking a detour is nearly impossible, and even if you try to break through, it’s obvious that you’ll be discovered by the opponent.

then…….

“Sister Garnet.”

“… … Yeah, that would be best.”

Hurrruk!

Garnet burst into flames. She used the effect of Carbuncle Soul to drop a huge fireball from the sky, showing off her presence.

“I don’t know if you’ll fall for it, but how about I play crazy for a while?”

If we’re going to get caught anyway, we’ll just reveal one person’s identity.

Fortunately, the Demon King’s army didn’t know about the relationship between the hero party and Garnet.

Here, you take on the role of Five, a crazy woman who has been abandoned by the Demon King’s army and has gone crazy.

If you burn the spider webs while drawing a lot of attention, it is the best choice for the warrior party to advance along that path.

That means, here, Garnet must make the sacrifice alone.

“Don’t worry, Garnet.”

“You want to stay with me?”

Garnet smiled bashfully.

A gentle smile that I haven’t seen in a long time.

And Jim, who had told Garnet not to worry, responded with an equally gentle smile.

“No one will ever suspect that you are a crazy b*tch.”

Jim was confident.

Even if Garnet showed up alone and caused a scene, people wouldn’t think she was crazy and wouldn’t think she had a plan.

“Trust my eyes, for I have seen you under your legions.”

“… … .”
