I Misunderstood the Date and Saved the Demon King

26. Stronger

Magi. A completely alien aura emitted only by demons in the world.

This doesn’t come out at any moment, nor is it felt at any time.

Only battles, fights. When the demons’ instincts, excitement, and joy reached a certain level. That is why it is emitted when a huge, bloody life-and-death situation takes place.

Lidike has experienced that magic countless times. Against the demons who were more interested in suffocating others than for their own comfort in that cruel battlefield that never knew when it would end.

And when he faced the diabolical demon king who tried to defile his soul, he also felt that demon.

“Commander! Here!”

Receiving his favorite bottle, a huge longbow, from his attendant, Ly Dike immediately kicked off the ground and ran into the demonic infested place.

That man, although not as much as Lethe, he himself also stepped away from the field for a little while.

As he said, classes are forever, but it’s only a short break. In a fight where a very brief mistake leads directly to death, even that moment can be a decisive defeat.

However, even so, Ridike threw herself without hesitation. Her victory or defeat had absolutely nothing to do with who she was now.

At the point where you can feel the magic. It was because the energy of the person he was unfamiliar with was also meshing together. If he’s in danger, this time he’s on his own!

“Lete!”

Lidike finally arrived at the place where the building was destroyed by fire due to the attack of demons not long ago. A place where there was no loss of life, but where property damage was unavoidable.

Right there, his own benefactor. He was fighting against four demon lords!

Reasonable questions like what the hell was going on, why the demon lords who saved the academy were fighting against Lethe, had long since been erased from Ridike’s mind.

The important thing now is that Lethe is fighting her demons. There was only one.

You have to save it. We must fight together. You have to repay the favor. My benefactor, my lamp. For him.

“Wait! Now i….”

Kwaaang!!― Coo Goo Goo!―

I’ll help you. I’ll help you. Help… need to give… Are you really there?

Lidike’s body, which was moving urgently, gradually loses its speed. Slowly, slowly, she headed towards Lethe, but soon stopped.

Kagak!― Kwajijik!―

Koo Goo Goong!― Quaang!―

‘That… Is that Lethe? Oh no. Wait for a sec. Apparently, there were aftereffects of the injury, so the movements of her arms were a little unnatural? That’s why you withdrew from the front line?’

This is the appearance of the war hero during the war. Nothing has changed. It’s still strong, it’s still fast, and above all, it’s full of room.

The balance of his body, which was worrisomely inclined at the time of his injury, is now perfect. As if he was saying that he had never been hurt, let alone suffered from aftereffects!

“Commander! What is this!- What, what… Uhh….”

Her attendants, who rushed in armed, were also speechless.

The scene where Lethe moves so perfectly. It was a leisurely fight against four demon lords. The fact that those four demon kings were incomparably stronger, who literally slaughtered other demon kings, who were called the Four Heavenly Kings. All of that was astonishing.

Tuong!―

With a tremendous roar, the four demon lords are thrown out in all directions.

There are no major injuries, and they are still able to fight more, but with that, the power gap has already been proven. Right away, the four demon lords seemed to be hesitant to fight any further.

It’s amazing. It was so shocking to think of the fierceness of the demons in the fight.

“Lidike?”

Maybe it was only now that he found Ridike, as if Lethe, who had retracted the sword, ran into her while passing by. She smiles casually and greets you.

I erased all of the fighting with the momentum to destroy the academy right up until the moment before.

“What is it? What’s going on here? Did you come here to talk to me?”

“That….”

“Thank you. Even if it wasn’t so, the academy had to close for a month because of that damn incident. I was bored and wondered what to do, but when an old comrade comes to me like this, it quickly comforts me.”

After saying

, Lethe waved her hand away, as if to say we should stop now.

Then the demon lords regained their momentum all at once, and suddenly, Du-du-du! And run in front of him.

“Good work, mister!”

“You have worked hard, brother.”

“Excuse me! Master!”

“… Be strong Lethe.”

“Yes. You guys also suffered. I mean, it’s to relieve the instructor who lost his student.”

Damn you bastards. Why did you attack the academy and issue a school closure order? Lette openly curses demons in front of the ‘demon king’, not anyone else.

I’ll do that again! hehehe! Demon lords nodding their heads while laughing.

“….”

What is it? What is it? I knew it was close, but… Was it like this? It’s not just about the benefactor who saved your life, but about the love you’ve had in your heart for a very long time?

‘No, no. Wait for a sec. That’s not what’s important right now.’

Quickly shaking her head, Ly Dicke hurriedly moved her steps toward Lethe. Then she took hold of his hand.

At that moment, sparks flew in the eyes of the four laughing demon lords, but unfortunately she didn’t know that.

“Lete. Wait, wait.”

“Uh, Lidike. Why?”

“You, wounded. What about the injuries? What are the sequelae? Not too long ago, the movement of her arms was a bit, but definitely unnatural, wasn’t it! By the way, but what about the movement just now?!”

… It’s strange. She’s never seen this girl since she became an instructor. Could it be that she secretly came and watched?

Lethe wanted to ask that question, but she noticed the demon lords and decided to promise her later.

If she said ‘Did you follow me?’ In this spot, she would look straight and start a fight.

“Nonsense. It’s the same movement as it was then. No, no. It has become more concise than then, but more powerful. It’s not that my level has dropped to the point where I have to step down from the front lines because I got hurt or suffered from aftereffects… This is rather a step forward!”

To the elf woman who looked at herself with surprised rabbit eyes, Lethe replied with a gentle smile. It means that everything you see and everything you think is right.

“Oh my God….”

Covering her mouth with her hands, Ly Dicke slowly stepped behind her.

The brilliant glory of a war hero, his overwhelming military power, was no longer a thing of the faded past. Like a butterfly emerging from a chrysalis, he emerged as something more beautiful and greater.

To the extent that he was able to relax while dealing with those demon lords, and four of them at the same time.

Isn’t it smoke? Ridike herself is one of the heroes of that great war. There was no way he could mistake a real fight for show-off sparring.

That’s a combination that is hard to show even if you’re in your prime and Letera. With sincerity enough to each other, and with the heart to really fight and win, we fought fiercely.

At that moment, another thought entered Ridike’s head.

‘If this happens, what will happen to those idiots now?’

Hard waves, moderate waves. The imperial nobility, the dwarves, and even their own people. For their own reasons and purposes, they tried to get closer to Lethe or to get farther away. I tried to jump on his reputation, and sometimes I tried to increase the value of my name by keeping him in check.

It all starts with one thing. The Empire’s greatest war hero has resigned from the front line and is serving as an instructor at the academy, although he has a lot of authority.

It was the prediction that it would be difficult to achieve the overwhelming majesty of the time now due to the aftereffects of the injury.

‘… Fools. Now that calculation and prediction are broken.’

Laughter comes out. An exhilarating, unbearable laugh that spilled out of his lips.

The giant finally stretched and stood up. The things he had been unknowingly poking at in the meantime would now go away as soon as they were caught in his hand, and his whole arm would be pulled out.

Did Lethe only fight against demons? No. Traitors were also caught well. Elves, dwarves, as well as human beings, he broke their heads without even a hint of mercy.

If you have a relationship with him or if he has helped you, he will be very harmful, but once you deal with those who are hostile to you, George laughs hahahaha and is very meticulous. He was also a fairly narrow-minded person.

“Now then, is it a comeback?”

“What is a comeback? He’s just a stronger academy instructor.”

“Let’s do it… If you look at those demon lords, there will be no war no matter what.”

Do the demon kings really want peace? Wouldn’t it be a delay to pass the time or a more brutal massacre? That was the reason why hardliners insisted that ‘peace is impossible.’

Looking at it now, whether it’s controlling it with force or dealing with it with the heart. Whatever the path, it was clear that the possibility of them turning around was zero.

“Over there. The dwarf there. Who are you, and do you keep sticking by your side?”

“Ashu. You decided to speak nicely.”

“But Mar! That goblin is hanging out next to you!”

“That’s right. So, elves? Who are you?”

“Warrior leader ‘Eridike’, right? If it’s her blue-haired elf, I think she’ll be that woman. I think it’s fitting that the bow you’re holding also looks very heavy.”

“Eh? That elf is that Lydike, Sitri? That elf who kills more demons with a bow than with an arrow?”

“… A bow is not a blunt weapon.”

For a moment, Ridike’s body flinched and trembled. As an elf, it wasn’t a particularly dignified story.
