The great mage who transcends by returning, episode 330
“…Damn it.”
Cyrus sighed and trudged behind us.
I don’t think I’ve given up on the idea of following in the footsteps of my close friends….
well it’s okay
Even if you don’t make a fuss by saying you’re going to the place where you made an oath right away, it’s a great improvement.
Of course, the expression is not bright.
Cyrus’s expression changed every moment as he passed by.
Even if he smiles as if recalling the past for a moment, his face distorts with an expression that the world has collapsed.
How many times did you repeat that? Cyrus asked me cautiously.
“Can I ask you one question?”
“You do.”
“The hero…Are you sure you have the confidence to kill a demon?”
“I wouldn’t do this without you.”
“but….”
He looked at the scene unfolding around him with empty eyes.
“Is it really possible to kill the being who made this land like this in an instant….”
“it’s possible.”
I didn’t explain any particular reason. Why is it possible and what plans do I have….
It was because he did not think he would accept the explanation and judged that it was not a necessary situation.
“Even if it is not possible, I will make it possible.”
“…haha.”
At my words, Cyrus laughed helplessly. Then he spoke in a dejected voice.
“…You’re amazing. An attitude that allows you to stand up to God without shrinking…It is the spirit of a dimension that I dare not resemble.”
“well. Really?”
“…yes?”
He asked blankly, and I stopped walking for a moment and met his eyes.
“I mean, really, wonder is ‘unlikeable’.”
“Isn’t that natural? In fact, the thought that I could still stand up to that Demon God….”
“I don’t think so.”
“…What on earth do you want to say?”
Cyrus was glaring at me with an expression of great insult.
It seems that he is in a state of desperation, but he is still full of all sorts of negative emotions.
It’s a familiar face.
‘Cause once upon a time I was like that too.
I was pushed too far to see what was important.
“It was said that it was very unclear whether the target of Kyung’s despair was the demon or the despair of losing something. Well, you know best.”
“Is that important?”
“It doesn’t matter. Only when you realize that will you be able to raise your sword again.”
Well, I won’t say that I’m overcoming it right away, but it will help.
“….”
At my words, Cyrus fell into thought without saying anything else.
I left him alone and started walking again.
Of course, it’s not just walking without thinking. Because there was something to check before reaching the grave.
‘Perhaps the Demon God intervened.’
Perhaps the direct cause of the destruction of the two kingdoms was the Great Devil who followed him.
First of all, it was necessary to confirm the identity of the great devil.
Of course, if magic was attempted on such a grand scale, there would have been clear traces….
It’s a harrowing sight, but there is still enough to know that this place was once a civilized city.
‘The God of Drinking really gave generously. Did he temporarily transfer the right to use the authority to him?’
There are four remaining ‘valid’ archevil.
Now that Malphas, who was hiding in the body of the founder, was removed, there really are only a few left.
Two of the four are monarchs with core sins. In our way, the chosen nobles with the title of grand duke….
‘Both of them were so superior in their origins that they were able to accept the power of the Demon God without difficulty.’
Then, which of the two descended first?
I’m going to get rid of that one guy no matter what, before the demon breaks the border.
Prior research is essential for this.
The walls were completely covered in slime. They must have been ‘human’ at one time.
‘Did the weak beings not be able to hold out at all and their shape collapsed?’
Before returning, there was a guy who trampled on humanity in a similar way.
At that time, it was not this small kingdom that suffered damage, but half the empire…it’s similar anyway
Even then, countless people of the empire were sacrificed in this terrible way.
Yes, it was offered as the same ‘sacrifice’.
‘Large-scale monster summoning, soil pollution, and this kind of slaughter….’
And even this clear evidence.
“…hmm.”
I drool as I looked at the corpse of a knight who seemed to have been co-exterminated with a monster. No matter how advanced they were, half of them melted.
and….
“The stigma of arrogance…That’s it.”
Ariandel spoke to me in a dark voice.
“The fact that the victims are branded with this stigma means that the great devil who led this destruction….”
“Yes, it must be ‘Lucifer’.”
Lucifer, Lord of Arrogance.
Among the 4 great demons who were by the side of the Demon God, an existence with strong power and high crime.
Of course, Ariandel would know too.
“Even if the Demon God pays less attention to this land, it won’t be Lucifer.”
“I guess so. He’s a pretty thorough personality.”
If the opponent is Lucifer, it eventually leads to worry about the grave again.
It’s only a matter of time before that clever bastard notices the tomb’s existence.
…How do you do it?
[The tomb itself is now close. Even if you walk slowly forward, 30 minutes? That’s enough distance to get there.]
Not really, but I could already see the horizon in the distance.
Close to the grave. I already heard from the Round Table what type of tomb this time was.
– This tomb must have had a rather unusual shape. It certainly wasn’t a ‘grave’ in the usual sense.
“okay.”
The exact location of this tomb is between the rocky areas located in the sea.
In the case of this tomb, he had no intention of undergoing a standard ordeal.
The goal is to pass the ordeal of the tomb as quickly as you have learned all the necessary information from the Round Table.
“If that’s the case, I’ll move a little faster from here….”
It was when I thought so.
thud.
A loud roar rang the ground.
“…ah.”
I felt it in that moment.
It never means anything good.
– Not good.
“I know.”
The point where I heard that sound is the tomb, which is my destination this time….
“…Well, the name is the Great Devil, but the time has come to figure out the location of the tomb and preoccupy it.”
“What are you going to do?”
“What else could there be?”
I slowly got up and answered Ariandel’s question. It’s obvious, but the god doesn’t give up.
Then there is only one thing left.
Originally, I didn’t intend to go out like this, but there’s no way things always go as planned….
“Let’s just use this opportunity to send another Great Devil to the goal.”
Where do you want to overbid?
sure don’t
* * *
“Ha ha!”
Archdemon Lucifer was in a pretty good mood right now.
It is also because he succeeded in finding out the location of the ‘grave’ that he had suffered quite a bit of trouble in the meantime.
‘I never thought I’d find it like this!’
When I first found out where it was, I was dumbfounded. I can’t believe there was a tomb in the land that was dedicated as a ‘sacrificial sacrifice’.
How funny is this.
But anyway, it doesn’t matter now.
It’s because the warrior can destroy it with the power he received from the god before he got his hands on the sacred object in this tomb.
yes this is it
The wicked one will lose hope, and at that point he will lose the power to fight against God.
“You look shabby, Sebek.”
He snorted as he looked at the apostle who was barely holding on to his attack below him.
Apostle Sebek was staring at him with dozens of sturdy shields covering his entire body like a turtle.
“…Lucifer.”
“In the end, I was right. The god you believed in is dead, and the god I serve has not come back.”
As he said that, he looked down at Sebek’s gigantic body.
It’s a really old bad relationship.
Even from Lucifer’s point of view, Asar’s strong shield, Sebek, was very annoying….
confronted for a long time
However, he had not been able to pierce Sebek’s shield even once during numerous battles and was expelled from the world in that state.
It could be said that it was a very humiliating thing for a great devil.
An impenetrable shield.
But now it’s different.
Unlike himself, who had the authority of a god on his back, he became weak.
ah look
In the end, even that sturdy shield could not withstand its limits and cracked.
It is truly sad to be abandoned by God.
“How to locate….”
“With God nothing is impossible. Unlike you who were abandoned, you gave me a firm ‘direction’, and that is an honor.”
“…under.”
Sebek smiled bitterly.
In order to fulfill my duty, I have been enduring like that until now in order to pass on the sacred objects to the right person….
‘Is this the end?’
He recalled the years he had lived as a great god’s shield.
His honesty was his strength, and God was also pleased with his honesty.
so that…have endured
I tried to protect a part of him somehow from outside threats beyond my own limits.
While such a close confrontation situation continued.
“Lou Lucifer…!”
Someone urgently called Lucifer. At those words, Lucifer’s head turned toward it for a moment.
“…Tsk.”
Soon, his face contorted.
“Enoch.”
“No, I always have the name Leviathan….”
“So what is it Enoch?”
At those words, Leviathan…No, Enoch’s shoulders drooped.
However, he soon recovered and shouted urgently.
“Yes, I have a bad feeling!”
“…hmm?”
Lucifer’s eyebrows twitched.
I don’t have a good feeling
Normally, I’d just ignore it, but unfortunately, that bloody fellow’s intuition is as good as it gets.
“What do you mean?”
“My body is cold…I have no reason to be cold, but my whole body is cold….”
“….”
To think such a thing would be said by a person whose name is the Great Devil who received power directly from him.
I am speechless because I am pathetic.
But Lucifer let out a small sigh and said to Enoch.
“…speak properly.”
“That’s it….”
Enoch, who hesitated as if he was very embarrassed, opened his mouth soon.
“The part hit by the warrior is cold. this is definitely…He’s close….”
“Huh, what bullshit….”
The hatred in Lucifer’s eyes grew even more.
The fact that this kind of guy is a monarch with the same ‘sin’ as himself is really absurd.
“How dare a guy who received power directly from God stop me with just such a reason!”
“Oh no, is it real?! There must be a hero nearby…!”
“You don’t think I’m here with nothing, do you? I am constantly receiving real-time information from all over the area!”
Of course, nothing caught on.
Lucifer had unwavering confidence in his powers and abilities.
That such an idiot could sense something that he couldn’t detect?
And that’s because the part that was humiliatingly beaten by the hero is cold?
“It’s embarrassing that someone like you is the same evil lord as me! Right now in front of me…!”
The moment you want to scream like that again.
Flash!
Suddenly, a bright light swept the area.
As a demon that originated from a demon, it is a sacred energy that cannot but be rejected….
“…hmm?”
“That’s right!”
Trembling with fear, Enoch exclaimed frantically.
“The madman is coming!”
Enoch was weeping now.
His expression was so sad that he thought it was a good thing he didn’t run away.
at the same time.
Whoop!
Before the two Great Demons could take any action, the momentary space was ‘pierced’ dozens of times.
A sight that even the name of leaping through space sounds ridiculous.
and.
“hi?”
Warriors rushed in.
With both hands firmly holding the staff.
