The demon Lugis crushed the spirit Nuto. It was no longer a contest, but just a single body cruelly crushed.
The crushed mass of flesh was so crushed that not a piece of flesh could be seen, and it looked like nothing but a pool of blood. The crown that Nuto was wearing flew through the air, making a thumping sound as it was displayed on the blood.
Neither the people nor the demoness knew why it had happened. A moment of silence fell over the place. Thoughts were confused, and everyone possessed a sense of bewilderment.
The one who moved the fastest was the demon Kiel. As a former human, he had experienced the unexpected more than once.
Things don't always work out the way you want them to. Things are always going to go wrong. Kiel knows this all too well.
Putting his glasses back on his ears, he quickly turned on his heel. He needed to get out of the still shocking execution site immediately. If he stayed here, he would not be able to escape.
Kiel mounted his horse, leading the reserve troops that he had kept in reserve for unexpected situations.
After all, the opponent was the demon Lugis. It's different from the survivors of the army who threw away their lives and came charging in. We can kill them all if we want to, humans and demons alike.
One of his men put an anxious look on Kiel's shoulder. It was an overtly frightened look.
"Master Nute... I didn't know you were killed by a demon. ...... What is this? What's going on?
His thoughts were completely undefined. It seems that he was just following Kiel's back. Kiel clenched his fists and said.
I don't know. All I know for sure is that we screwed up. Don't kill me, Junerva. He'll kill you for leaving Nute for dead.
"That's absurd! You're dealing with a demon!
The truth is, Kiel has no idea what Junerva will do. But if he didn't say this, his men might stab him in the back.
To his own surprise, Kiel kept his cool. In fact, I think he knew in the back of his mind that this would happen.
After all, Mastighios was not the kind of person who would die over something like this.
Kiel opened his mouth as if he were telling several of his men to do the same. His pale skin contorted and moved.
Don't panic. There are always mistakes and failures in everything. That's just what happened this time. I'm used to it.
Kiel could imagine what would happen to King's Landing. The people under the mastighios would be consolidated and confronted by the demons. Great confusion and turmoil would cover the entire city.
It's easy to imagine what the demons Junerva and Lovell will do then. The confusion caused by their confrontation will lead to further outbursts, and outbursts will lead to ruin.
If there's any place for me, it's there. At the height of their conflict, you have to stab them in the gut.
And then this country will finally be helpless.
Kiel only wanted this capital to function as a means of destroying the nation of Borvat. Everything else is of no importance.
"Listen, I'm leaving King's Landing now. It's that simple. Once you've crawled, you can get up and do it again.
◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇
I'm not sure what to do. I'm not sure what to make of that.
I'm not sure what to make of that. The act of defection by a demon who was supposed to be one of us. How should we take this?
Should we treat him as an enemy-- but a demon can't win.
Then run away... or Junerva might kill you later. He hates the weak who run away more than anything.
Suddenly, from the execution table, Lugis looked down at the demons. As if obeying their sense of duty, the demons naturally surrounded Lugis and the human soldiers. The citizens turned pale and frightened, but they could not escape from the square.
While everyone was still unable to take a step forward, it was the demon who spoke up.
What is it? If you want to escape, then get out of here. I don't like to bully the weak. It's dark and damp. Most of all, it's stupid.
Lugis placed the sword on his shoulder with ease and said with a sigh. The sword sucks up blood and wriggles as if smiling at the Lord.
I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not.
"So get the hell out of here. You don't want to die, do you?
I'm not sure if I'll be able to do that. He seemed to have no interest in the demons that surrounded him.
No, if you ask me, he's interested in no one but Mastighios. The rest of the people must not really matter either.
With the sword on his shoulder, Lugis casually showed his back to the demons. The demons' throats rumbled. Their senses sharpened.
Can I kill them now? If so, maybe Junerva wouldn't kill them.
I don't know if it was Lugis' pride that drove them, or if it was mainly fear of Junerva.
But it was true that most of them used their fangs and claws to challenge the demons.
--I don't need to tell you what happens to demons who bare their fangs at demons who are existential disasters. The only thing that happened was that they were crushed and the execution site became a pool of blood. That's all there was to it.
After a moment of silence, the corpses of the demonic beasts and demons lay there.
At the sight of this, the citizens, who had been silent in confusion, shouted with joy. Some of them even showed tears. For the first time in a long time, the citizens were letting out their heartfelt voices.
Lugis had saved the life of the magic general Mastighios, and had even killed the demons. The citizens took this as a heroic gesture.
Lugis is a friend of the people. He must have infiltrated the demons and waited for the right moment. And now he is the savior who has come to save us.
The soldier Oirant and the soldiers who were to be executed after Mastighios understood this. Everyone shouted and enjoyed the moment of joy. The exclamation of joy is rampant.
Only the three of them were aware of what was going on.
They were the magic general Mastighios, and his lieutenants Eirene and Hind.
"...... Lord Lugis. I'm glad to see you again. But what happened to you, what happened to you?
Lugis' appearance is too demonic to be a hero.
His crimson eyes are darker than blood and his magic sword cries out fearlessly. The appearance of the sword was probably influenced by Lugis. It was common for magic tools to be affected by the nature of their owners.
When Mastighios finally got up on his feet after the restraints were removed, Lugis said to him.
You say that as if you know me. I'm nothing and I'm not getting any better. I was and still am the same.
With that, the demon slung the sword from his shoulder and laid it down. Crimson was looking at Mastighios' face.
It's not that I'm on your side. It's just that they're lower than you. There's no point in siding with the lowlifes. Am I right?
These were momentary words. Mastighios thinks. He's still not the man he was. His moods and mannerisms are different, but he wouldn't say something like this if he were normal.
Apparently, even his memory was failing him.
"...... Master Mastighios. I have many questions, but I think we should keep our people and our troops together for now.
While nodding in response to Hind's words, Mastighios asked himself what he should do now. Even though his own life and the lives of his soldiers had been given some respite, he was now in the midst of the enemy.
He did not know when the enemy would attack again. Lugis had changed and there was no guarantee that he would remain on our side. We still lack strength. Our position is vulnerable.
Narrowing his eyes and tightening his lips, Mastighios made up his mind. It was the same time.
--In the midst of the cheering executioners, the demon falls again.
A more powerful, overwhelming demon. The temperature of the air seems to have dropped a little. A feeling of fear ran through my skin.
The demon spoke in a loud voice.
"Rougis! There you are, stay where you are!
The head of the huge lion demon beast was chopped off by the black scarlet sword. The head of the giant lion beast was chopped off by a black scarlet sword. Karia Vadnick was running, blood splattering on her face. Lugis said happily, as if congratulating himself on being reunited with his lover.
"Oh, look. My enemy. My enemy has come again.
Beside the smiling Lugis, Mastighios had a similar smile on his face. If Kalia is here, there is a good chance that some of the heraldic soldiers are also safe.
Then the problem is the demon. I was no match for that thing. The only thing that can defeat a demon is a demon.
Lord Lugis. I have a question. What happens if you face the other demons now? What if they attacked you?
Of course," Lugis said without a hint of thinking. It seemed like a no-brainer.
"It's always the righteous who get killed, so... They're not my enemy either.
