The Woman Found the Will I Wrote - Chapter 153
153 – Demon World 3
Hwakrumi hiccuped as she looked at the bizarre, yet strangely beautiful decorations.
The decorations and buildings of the Heavenly God Church that we have seen so far.
Although it was disturbing within the scope of understanding, what we were seeing now was full of items that deviated from human common sense.
‘… ‘
Because of that, I can’t say anything and just hug Luna who is hiding in my arms.
A man smiling calmly in front speaks to me while sipping an unidentified drink.
“Hero, how is the Demon World? When I heard the news that the hero was coming, I prepared quite hard.”
The other side asked questions, but it was difficult to give any answers.
That’s right, even if you ask for my impressions.
It was difficult to give an answer because everything was strange and outside of common sense.
That’s why we can’t say anything and just stand still.
He calmly smiled and looked at himself.
He then sat down on a desk made entirely of flesh and continued his speech.
“Anyway, this isn’t important… The important thing is why were the demons so anxious because they couldn’t eat you? “I guess.”
“… Sigh.”
The moment I hear those words, I think of all the pain I have endured for a long time.
A strange, stabbing pain comes into my chest.
‘Thanks to Dern, I was able to forget about it… ‘
Maybe it’s because there’s no place I can rely on mentally now that Dern is gone.
I had no choice but to throw my body down, feeling the pain that made me vomit at any moment.
That’s why, just as he was collapsing to the floor and holding on to his senses, he continued his words with a sneer.
“You may have already guessed, but there is no devil in this world.”
It was information I already knew from Dern, so I wasn’t really surprised.
Perhaps, they kept their mouths shut because they found it odd that they were talking about something that would inevitably become their biggest weakness.
He spoke while vigorously scratching the flesh he was sitting on with his fingernails.
“Do you know the reason?”
There was no way I knew why.
It’s a situation where we don’t even know why heroes and demon kings have to exist in the first place.
This is because there was no way to solve the question of why there was no Demon King.
So, when I crouched down and didn’t say anything.
He looked out his window and spoke briefly.
“Because there are no more demon gods in this world.”
There is no demon?
The moment I heard those words, a thought passed through my mind.
‘When I think about it, the reason why the demons needed me was because of the resurrection of the demon king or the descent of the demon god… ‘
I don’t know which of these two is correct.
He continued to mention these two and proceeded assuming this.
The moment I heard those words, I began to roughly understand the context.
“Seo, no way. To make the devil god descend… Are you resurrecting the devil?”
“Oh. “You’re sharp.”
As initially expected, all of this seems to have been a plan to bring down the demon god.
The moment they realize this, perhaps everything they have been through.
A thought crossed my mind that it might have been that guy’s plan.
“You might not have imagined it, but in fact, everything I did was an arrangement prepared to help you grow.”
“… Arrangement?”
“Yes. No matter how much of a warrior you are, an ungrown warrior is just a seed full of future potential.”
“… “
“So, beyond resurrecting the Demon King, we need to use it as material for the descent of the Demon God. It requires some growth.”
The moment he finished speaking, his smiling face suddenly hardened.
Soon, he gritted his teeth and began to scrape the flesh beneath him even faster with his hands as he continued his words.
“But the arrangement that has been prepared for a long time… “A completely unexpected person took it all to himself.”
By unexpected human, I guess you mean Dern.
The moment I heard Dern’s story, it was funny enough, I felt a little bit stronger and curled up.
He laughed and continued his words.
“That too without any difficulty, as if it were something natural.”
Since Dern’s strength is beyond common sense, it seems that even the demons who made this plan did not know that the arrangement would be broken so easily.
Just when I was feeling a little excited because Dern’s praise was so nice.
He crossed his legs and made a quick deduction.
“So I thought. In fact, I think the hero is not you, but a guy named Dern.”
“… “
I felt embarrassed at the reasoning that was suddenly moving in the right direction.
He pretended not to know and just looked down at the floor.
In this situation, if you try to say something for no reason, you will end up having the information taken away.
“Actually, it was strange from the beginning. “You were too weak to be called a hero, and Dern was too strong compared to his declared abilities.”
He got up from his seat and slowly approached me.
He then took out a dagger from his arms and continued speaking.
“That’s why I’m asking…” “What on earth are you? No matter how much I think about it, I cannot understand the meaning of your existence.”
I was wondering what to do with such a question.
Since I didn’t want to do something that would only hinder Dern any longer, I decided to follow Dern’s usual actions
I answered by changing Dern’s words into my own tone.
“It’s pathetic. “I don’t even know that.”
Dern would have said something like this.
Just when I was feeling elated that I had followed along pretty well.
He clicked his tongue, looked down at himself, raised his dagger and spoke.
“It doesn’t matter. Anyway, not knowing the meaning of existence means that there is no problem even if it disappears.”
“… “
“And more than anything, I think Dern will awaken only if I kill you, so please just die now.”
With those words, he slashed his dagger down without hesitation and attempted to pierce his own head.
“… Crazy.”
The dagger is lightly blocked by the shield placed by Dern and bounces away.
The demon guy who saw this laughed and cursed as if he was dumbfounded.
“You crazy b*stard… “You want to protect just one person, so you condense a shield that would cover the entire country and hang it on just one person?”
Perhaps because his true feelings came out, the polite language suddenly appeared and was replaced with informal language.
He then trampled on the dagger he was holding and broke it, then grabbed the sword lying nearby and continued his words.
“Great. A protective shield is a protective shield. No matter how strong it is, it will break if you keep hitting it.”
Then, he begins to laugh, gathering a huge amount of magical energy into his sword, as if trying to destroy not only himself but the building itself.
At that scene, I activated my stealth magic and tried to hide.
[No need to worry!]
Luna says it’s okay, waving her hands.
[Because… Because the master has come!]
Master? Could it be Dern?
The moment she heard those words, she looked behind her, but there was no trace of anyone, let alone Dern’s shadow.
Just as Luna was wondering if she had made a mistake.
– Waaa!
Suddenly the floor collapses and a monster holds a mace…
No, Dern appears and starts shouting something strange about her.
“Hear’s Johnny.”
From noble mtl dot come
A word I’ve never even heard of.
I don’t know what that means, but I couldn’t help but blink, thinking that it was definitely something quite creepy.
* * * * *
I slowly climbed up and continued talking while looking at the demon guy in front who was trying to kill Rumi.
“Seeing you again.”
At the headquarters of the Heavenly God Church, I realized that he was the demon I met last and greeted him.
He smiles wryly and shakes his head.
“… I know, right. “I never thought we would meet so soon.”
“I agree.”
I looked at him watching his eyes and slowly pulled out the holy sword from within my arms and continued speaking.
“I have one thing to tell you.”
When I told him there was something I wanted to talk about, he looked at me quizzically.
I looked at him and spoke briefly.
“Have you ever seen a holy sword explode?”
“… ?”
Towards him, who was looking at me with an expression that said he didn’t understand at all.
I continued speaking while exploding the holy sword.
“If you don’t have it, take a look now.”
With those words, a huge explosion combining a huge amount of magic energy, divine power, and mana was about to occur.
He speaks to me with a sneer.
“Unfortunately, this is an alter ego… No matter how huge the explosion they cause, it will have absolutely no effect on my body.”
Then he shrugs his shoulders and starts laughing.
“You probably thought it was a turning point, but it turned out to be quite disappointing.”
When I heard that, I spoke as if I couldn’t understand it at all.
“Who said you can only use the Holy Sword once?”
“Yeah… “
“Probably not.” In fact, it can be used continuously, not just once.”
I continued speaking as I saw a powerful explosion starting from me.
“Then try to hide as best as you can. Of course, if you can hide.”
With those words, I activated the space expansion magic in my arms and placed Rumi inside.
I smiled as I watched the surroundings gradually disappearing.
