I’m the Demon King, but There Are Too Many Heroes

047. Enemies

“Come on!”

The Red Chloride Raid was living in an entire mansion in the royal capital Ortan.

‘A hero here, a warrior there.’

I wish they all twisted their necks.

Berge endured the rejection and anger felt everywhere with superhuman patience.

Among them, the most powerful warrior greeted Berge with his arms wide open.

“It’s okay too. For now, we have to be together again, okay?”

Healan Cargill bowed her head silently at the blatant nuance.

“This is the commander of our raid. It’s Franz.”

“Nice to meet you. This is Franz.”

“It’s a fail.”

“···········?”

“Why do you look like that?”

“Pale. Aren’t we seeing each other for the first time today?”

“By the way?”

“Then, shouldn’t there be a formality that should be taken for granted by each other?”

“Roselle Charter wasn’t like that.”

“·················ogue.”

Franz’s head turned. Roselle quietly avoided her gaze.

“Captain, come this way for a second.”

Franz dragged Roselle back.

“What is it?”

“what?”

“You didn’t tell me that you were such a person!”

He said he didn’t want to fix it at all, because he ate a bunch of rice in a bowl.

In the eyes of Franz, who values teamwork, he was the kind of person that should never be accepted.

“One such person is enough.”

“Is there anyone like that in our raid?”

“·················ogue.”

“···Wait a minute. What are those eyes?”

“it’s nothing. But this guy is a rookie. No matter how good the captain is, such behavior will only undermine discipline.”

“Discipline is skill. It’s a trivial thing like formality. When you’re formal, will the monster pass you by? Doesn’t the devil cut your neck?”

“We are neither Demons nor Demon Lords!”

“Oh, I don’t know.”

“What a pair…!”

“How about you be more formal? This is a little looser, so you can’t tell what to say and what not to say?”

Franz kept his mouth shut at the soft but firmness of refusing to object.

“And don’t get drunk on the outside, look inside. Feel that mana.”

Roselle grabbed Franz’s face and turned. He saw a side view of Fail having a conversation with Hillen.

“Put your eyes tight and focus.”

“…the captain is right.”

hot. and pure As if seeing the spirit itself, I was amazed at the mana.

Franz did not even feel the ‘inherent potential’ that Roselle called it. However, just by checking the quality of mana, he realized that Fail was an unusual person.

“How a person….”

“Maybe he’s not human.”

Half elves or something like that is rare, but it’s not without it, right?

“The important thing is that I don’t want to miss him.”

Really, I like it.

Roselle licked her lips.

“…it’s hard to pretend you don’t know.”

It’s very blatant.

The sound was blocked by mana manipulation, but Berger sharpened his teeth at the stinging gaze that could not be hidden.

“You must not explode.”

“I don’t. You can’t ruin a plan for just one of those things.”

This level of disgrace is nothing compared to what he suffered from the Red Sword Champion just before returning.

“The story is over. Let’s go to my room.”

After a while, Roselle led Berge and Hillen. At her glance, Franz took the plunge.

widely-

The door closed and the faint smell of reagents stung my nostrils.

“Sit there. There is nothing else to serve.”

Two glasses of cold water were placed on the table.

“Come on, let’s have a conversation.”

“Conversation?”

“It’s actually an interview.”

“Isn’t that already passed?”

“In my mind, I have already passed over a hundred times. But your body rejects it? If the back of your head hurts, I can’t accept it.”

“I feel bad. You were the one who suggested it in the first place.”

“I know, I just want you to think of it as a formality.”

She opened the drawer and took out a sheet of paper.

“Name Pale, from Hilderan. Where exactly is Hilde?”

“Should I even say that?”

“I have to tell you. Because it says nothing about you can be found here.”

“I did a background check.”

“Don’t be too sad. If you’re a spy who came to ruin the bravery, then we’re all going to perish, right?”

In fact, that was often the case. It was an old thing that happened hundreds of years ago in the heroic action that everyone was interested in, but it is still a reality that is still happening intermittently in a few raids.

“It must have been you who made the offer first.”

“Even though I do things without thinking back and forth, I tend to like things neat and tidy.”

“I have no reason to tell you. There is no reason to accept restrictions.”

“no. If I need it, I need it.”

“Then I will fall.”

must not be left out Berge had to participate in this bravery and make sure that Drakson died.

Nevertheless, he was able to commit it because he had certainty. That Roselle is as desperate as she is.

‘Looking at the personality and eyes of Roselle who came in, there is no way to let him go.’

Sure enough, her army wriggled, not knowing whether she would reject it.

“Are you going to rob you of your chance to join the Red Chloride raid?”

“Because it’s not important to me.”

“Isn’t there a reason why I asked you to advance the heroic process as quickly as possible?”

“I think you are more like me.”

Roselle’s lips twisted. Her gaze turned to the side.

“Healan Cargill. Can you guarantee Fail’s identity?”

“of course.”

“Can I hang your neck?”

Hillen paused for a moment. But soon he nodded.

“…this is amazing. What the hell are you going to do with your life?”

Will you still hide your identity?

“great. Believe it.”

“Can you trust Hillen?”

“I don’t believe in Hillen. I believe in the career he has built up and the honor he is obsessed with.”

The Hillen Cargill she knew was more obsessed with honor and being seen than anyone else.

“If you betray it, it will all go away. I will take responsibility and blow it up.”

A sharp gaze glanced at Hillen.

It was a very accurate decision.

she smiled broadly.

“Instead, there is a condition.”

“Condition?”

“Since you closed your eyes on the ambiguity, shouldn’t there be something corresponding?”

“I understand that you joined at your request.”

Anyone who sees it will know what I asked for.

“Why is this? You also have something you want, so I guess you want to start the heroic journey early.”

“…what do you want?”

“Your mana, blood, and hair.”

From the first time we met until now. Roselle Charter had only one purpose.

Berger’s mana, which was dense enough to be comparable to that of a spirit, and heat.

wanted to have If you can’t have it, I want to make it so you can have it.

She held out the crystal ball.

“It’s a mana reservoir. Fill up your mana here.”

“Reject.”

“What?”

“I know what to do with my hair and blood. Instead, let me give you mana.”

It is said that the magic was hidden due to the power of the Phoenix, but his body was still a demon. If the Archmage, Roselle, had done research, there was no way that he couldn’t figure it out.

But mana was completely Phoenix’s, so there was no problem.

“On mana alone, you can’t tell how you got this power…”

“Two times instead. I’ll give it to you once now, and once more when the Demon King dies.”

“···great. First of all, let me be satisfied with that.”

“···first?”

Roselle nodded her head. Something was reluctant, but Berger reached out his hand.

He closed his eyes and released mana. Be as careful as possible not to touch the magic.

“… he decided to eat the mulberry.

“It’s a rare opportunity.”

Injecting mana took longer than expected. Contrary to how it looked, the mana storage capacity of the crystal ball was enormous.

Roselle chuckled. Berge felt a little dizzy and let go of his hand.

“Good.”

“Now is the time for you to keep your promise.”

I took a moment to breathe.

“The time has come.”

Roselle shrugged. That moment. A huge wave of mana swept the entire mansion.

“…the money seems to be rotting.”

“The Kingdom of Akan originally had a lot of money.”

Thump Thump-

The sound of thick armor echoed through the hallway.

smart-

“come in.”

The door opened. The knight in the silver full full mail bowed his head.

“I see you, great warrior, Roselle Chartres. 301 knights and 152 wizards, including God and Genoi, have arrived.”

“Welcome.”

Roselle got up from her seat and reached out to Berge.

“wake up.”

Berger raised his head and met his eyes.

“Because the second bravery starts now.”

“…I really like that.”

Berger grabbed her hand.

* * *

covertly.

And quickly.

It was the idea of Roselle Chartres and Akan Kingdom who took the lead.

Before the other kingdoms noticed.

Even if you notice, by then you can finish your work and get out.

Hundreds of well-chosen elite troops appeared in Ortan’s mansion through a moving magic circle.

The cost of the mana stones used to activate the magic circle was enormous, but the Kingdom of Akan placed greater value on what could be obtained by hunting the demon king.

“That amount of money should come from the tower’s treasure trove.”

“You cannot miss an opportunity like this.”

The magical kingdom of Akan always coveted rare monsters or by-products and treasures of demons.

Their value was infinite, and the magical achievements they had accumulated with the blood of demons and demons were not alone.

So they made a decision.

Something I would never have been able to do normally.

Although it failed, the Heroic Trial caused great damage to the Demon King’s Tower, and if Ormus did not want to destroy the tower as soon as possible, it was a plan that could never be put into action if Roselle Chartres had not shown great motivation.

Under Ormus’ acquiescence, the secret second heroic journey began.

“The Golden Lion Knights, the Red Tiger Knights, and the White Wolf Knights. My God, the Blue Meteor Wizards, the Golden Galactic Wizards, and the Red Sun Wizards…”

Healan was amazed by the side of the troops that had passed through the magic circle.

All of them were one of the strongest armed groups in the Akan Kingdom. It was a part that showed how much Akan cared about this.

As the power was replaced by the best of Akan, mercenaries including the Red Hawk were excluded.

Because secrecy is important.

‘The Blue Meteor Wizards.’

The Blue Meteor Wizards had also visited the Tower of Berge in the past.

The environment of the tower follows the demon king. As Berger mainly deals with flames, the environment of the tower is also full of heat.

It didn’t make it to the top, but it wasn’t, but it was quite annoying, and I remembered that many monsters lost their lives.

So there were six armed groups, and the Red Chloride Raid and 71 warriors who had been drawn by Franz separately.

Berge did not say much to them. Some wizards only felt and admired Berge’s mana, and they also didn’t pay attention to Berge.

From their point of view, Berge was just an uninvited guest.

After a short greeting that didn’t seem like a greeting, the second, Brave Haeng left Ortan.

“Are you sure?”

Berge took the lead and attached himself to the flying Roselle Charter.

I admit that it is not a weak power. But Berger was skeptical.

Even if there was only one heroic act, would it be possible to kill Draxon with this amount of power?

Draxon was the one who endured in the dimension of Arain for nearly a hundred years. He wasn’t incompetent enough to collapse in just one or two brave fights.

“Of course.”

Roselle Chartres smiled confidently.

“A wizard is a planner. This plan is perfect.”

“I don’t think it was like that before.”

“That’s Balaf, that damn bastard didn’t fail even if it didn’t pop out of nowhere. Or was Hillen Cargill just as strong as his reputation?”

“In the end, the focus is on the Demon King. Is there anyone who can catch the Demon King?”

“Sounds natural. Do you think I’ll trust Hillen Cargill twice?”

come over here

she muttered

I could feel the popularity from far away. A ‘hero’ with a huge presence was running towards me. It is not inferior to Roselle Charter.

The warriors stopped. A new warrior has joined.

“Greetings. It’s Ralph Schmidt. You’re weaker than me, but you’ve probably heard that name, right?”

The heavy armored warrior dismounted from his horse. He took off his helmet.

Moment.

“··········!”

Berge’s gaze was fixed on him.

beautiful face.

Brilliant blonde.

Blue eyes like the sea.

Even a muscular body that doesn’t fit the face.

Berge’s skin stood up. My heart was pounding wildly.

“Hey.”

Roselle, feeling strange, touched Berge.

“…what did you say?”

“I asked if you knew Ralph Schmidt.”

“know.”

how can i forget

that sleep

That guy.

That dog.

The hero, Ralph Schmidt.

“Very well, too.”

Just before returning, he was one of the warriors who smashed the tower and ridiculed him in the face.
