The NTR Hero Knelt Down to the Demon King - The NTR Hero Knelt Down to the Demon King chapter 114

114 – another chance

Cicero, the ruler of the elven kingdom.

He had been having a restless time all the time, feeling deep nervousness lately.

‘damn… Why, how come there has been no news until now?’

Cicero formed an assassination squad by gathering only the strongest of his comrades, including Antonius.

The dispatched assassins were entrusted with the task of inducing the end of this peace by killing Octavia, who was captivated by the Demon Kingdom.

And, just like that, the relationship between the elves and the demonic kingdom became tough again,

In particular, if the Demon Kingdom gets very angry at this situation and unleashes the black flame on the elven kingdom, resulting in the world tree Jupiter being reduced to ashes…

It could be said that the primary goal received from Amun was to be successfully completed.

But,

Despite his expectations,

The news about Antonius… To be precise, the news of Octavia’s assassination hadn’t been heard at all, even now, after enough time had passed.

‘Could it be that Antonius was beaten? ah… No, it can’t be. Antonius is the strongest warrior in the elven kingdom and a being who received direct blessings from Amun-sama. In the Demon Kingdom, the only opponent who can beat Antonius is the Demon King. He couldn’t have failed in his mission… ‘

Like that, the anxiety felt in real time and nonetheless… It was Cicero who had no choice but to wait anxiously for the results.

at that time.

-bang!

“! What… What? What’s going on?”

The next moment, a group of soldiers burst through the door and pour into his office.

At this, Cicero got up from his seat in deep embarrassment.

The soldiers surrounded him in an instant and thrust their knives into his throat.

“You guys! Where are you committing such rudeness! I dare to know who you are… ”

“Of course I am well aware, Cicero. A high-ranking scholar who is the representative of our elven church nation. And a traitor who betrayed the church and tried to sell the country to the empire.”

“What… what?”

The words of a soldier who brings out an unexpected story.

In response, Cicero felt that something was seriously wrong and protested harshly.

“You are a traitor! What do you mean by that? What kind of guy made such a ridiculous frame!”

“You don’t need to know that, just go. We can discuss the details in front of the Holy Father.”

“paddle… let go! these guys! Let go now!”

Cicero protests wildly as he is led by the soldiers.

However, despite his cry, the hand holding him did not let go.

*

“A bio to sincerely apologize for what we elves have done in the meantime.”

The pope and high-ranking ministers of the elven kingdom kneel respectfully in front of the demon king, bow their heads and ask for forgiveness.

Looking at that figure, the demon king, who was wearing armor and covering his whole body, nodded slowly,

Then he stretched out his hand to the pope and lifted him up from his seat.

“I will accept your apology. From now on, the Demon Kingdom and the Elven Church will be friends again.”

“Thank you so much for accepting my apology, Demon King.”

An official apology from the elves who have never bowed their heads in hundreds of years.

Their appearance soothed the hearts of the people of the Demon Kingdom, who had a deep resentment and anger toward the elves until now.

and,

Right after the pope’s apology ended and he returned to the church.

Immediately in the elven country, a great storm came to mind.

The treason incident that stirred up the whole country.

It became known to people as the fact that the forces centered on Cicero, the representative, and Antonius, the paladin, joined hands with the Falcon Empire and tried to betray the church.

That Cicero and his gang, who opposed making peace with the Demon Kingdom, joined hands with the Falcon Empire and attempted to assassinate Octavia, who was held captive by the Demon Kingdom.

Fortunately, their attempt ended in failure, and Antony was killed in the process.

Due to this, a large-scale bloody wind began to blow in order to find out the traitors who were attached to the Falcon Empire and tried to sell the country.

“Capture Cicero and all his men. And conduct a faith detection on all elves to find those who have betrayed their faith in the evil Falcon Empire!”

Faith detection, a magic that finds those who are using the power of a god other than the divine power derived from Jupiter, the world tree.

This magic, which can only be sensed when dealing with the power of something distinctly different, not the usual weak faith or one case, was performed on all elves in the Church by order of the pope.

and as a result,

In addition, a number of elves were captured, including several high-ranking elves, and the Pope gave them one last option.

“If you repent of your sins and follow Nelterion again, I will forgive you without asking you for any more wrongdoing.”

The Pope speaks with deep compassion.

Watching the scene, some people thought that it was too limited for the traitors who tried to sell out the country.

But…

In response to the pope’s proposal, Cicero and other elves resolutely shouted.

“There is no need for that! Kill us now!”

“I would rather die than submit to such a false god!”

Contrary to people’s expectations, heretics do not beg for their lives, but rather begin to denounce them to kill themselves.

Looking at their appearance, which even felt madness, the citizens felt something dark and creepy…

To them, the Pope slowly nodded.

“If that’s what you want, there’s nothing you can do about it. be true all And let the corpse be set in the middle of the street as an example. Let me tell you clearly what those who abandoned Nelterion and served evil spirits are saying.”

“Yes! His Holiness the Pope.”

This incident ended with the heads of those who refused the last mercy.

In light of these things,

The authority of the pope, which had fallen to the ground due to what had happened so far, was established again.

Religion within the church, which had been disturbed for a while, was also able to be rearranged again.

But,

At this moment, countless citizens of the Elven Church were not aware of these events.

The fact that this time, which can be said to be a simple movement of traitors, was not so simple.

*

“This saved me an hour for now.”

“Yes, His Holiness, but to be honest, I am still very surprised. I never thought Cicero would fall like that… ”

The pope and his servants speak in a bitter voice while looking at the heads of the traitors who were beheaded in the plaza.

From their point of view, although the meaning is slightly different, the person who has always worked hard for the country,

In fact, the fact that he was enticed by the evil spirit and tried to lead the world to destruction was bound to come as a great shock.

“I am Amun, the evil spirit… ”

“According to the words of the Demon Kingdom, I heard that the empire has betrayed Lord Nelterion and is serving a new god. Although it is not openly revealed, it is said that its power extends not only to the Empire, but also to the Nation of Guardians and the Nation of Sorcery.”

Amun, an existence whose record cannot be found in any history book.

However, with Octavia, whom I met when I visited the Demon Kingdom,

Antonius, who has become indescribable and horrendous, has given clear facts about him.

In this regard, the pope felt the need to face up to the reality of the evil being and come up with a countermeasure somehow.

“First of all, it would be good to inform other countries that only we know about this. If done well, we might be able to use this as an opportunity to attract the Suin Nation and the Sorcerer Nation to our side.”

“I think so too. Even though the two countries were only holding back in the last war against the Empire, they will certainly not stand still if it is known that the Empire is extending its dirty hands to them in this way.”

“I will send an envoy right away. Obviously, even at this moment, the Empire bastards… The men sent by Amun must be working undercover in real time.”

“Yeah, let me do that. Even though it’s a difficult time for everyone, let’s all work together for the fate of this world.”

“Yes, His Holiness the Pope.”

“I will keep that in mind.”

The elves responded with a sense of mission as if they were carrying the fate of the world.

But,

Apart from these appearances on the outside, at this moment they did not express themselves, but inside, they were all smiling with repentance.

The Falcon Empire was caught serving the evil spirits.

If you make good use of this fact,

Just as they isolated the Demon Kingdom in the past, it might be possible to isolate the Falcon Empire this time.

An empire that occupies the center of the continent and has the greatest prestige, and recently even directly invaded and robbed them of their territory.

Until just a few months, they were comrades who held hands together,

Isolating them, who have now become fierce enemies, and destroying this opportunity, if well done,

The elven kingdom could never be missed.
