Episode 135
“…Hmm.”
Two monsters wearing hoods were standing on top of the wall.
One was big and the other was small.
The commonality between the two is that purple eyes glow darkly under the hood.
“How do you see the referee?”
“It’s hard to judge right now.”
The large monster looked around with sharp eyes.
All I can see is a moderately damaged shop.
“I just feel the energy of magic in that half-destroyed building. It looks like something happened… …”
“Magic? Not Auror?”
“…I guess I’ll have to check it out. It’s no ordinary magic. I don’t know exactly, but I think it’s at the 7th circle level.”
Hearing those words, the small monster grinned.
“Khehe, things are getting a little complicated. I’ve been chasing the referee and his bastard, but this time it’s a wizard… …“
Don’t call me a bastard. Aren’t they the ones who will soon become our compatriots?”
“Hmmmm, whatever that is.”
The little monster got up.
He smiled pleasantly as he looked at the wide expanse of Margaret Baengnyeong.
It doesn’t seem like it could be more enjoyable.
“Ah, if I knew it would feel this liberating, I would be eroded right away, but I don’t know why I didn’t accept it right away!”
“….”
“Don’t you think so?”
“…It is an honor.”
The big monster struggled to answer.
It was very brief, but a moment of hesitation passed from his eyes.
The little monster laughed at him.
“Ha, let’s see if you still have any loyalty to the former captain?”
“shut up.”
The big monster Malone growled and threatened the little monster.
But he laughed as if he didn’t care at all.
“Don’t worry, don’t worry! That great master will soon fall into the same existence as us! If you can’t reach it, dropping it to the same floor as us is also a way!”
“I would have told you to shut up.”
Marlon’s purple eyes shone menacingly.
The atmosphere seemed to rip apart a small monster at any moment.
“whatever.”
But the little monster, far from shrinking, began to laugh at Marlon even more.
“Rather, it makes me laugh when I see you. Seeing that you say that you will protect your self-esteem that has nothing to do with a fallen subject.”
“….”
“You are already part of us, no matter what. If that’s the case, I’ll have to throw away all the unpleasant feelings I had before.”
Tuk-tuk.
Patting Marlon’s cheek lightly, the little monster giggled.
Then he said softly.
“Remember. The condor is dead.”
“….”
“That great master is also on the verge of collapsing. Then what are we, the bottom, to do?”
Marlon didn’t answer.
But regardless of that, the little monster continued.
“It is enough to faithfully fulfill their words. okay?”
“…know.”
Marlon replied with his head bowed.
Purple eyes slowly sink.
As if there was no need for further conflict… ….
“The condor is dead.”
Then, once again, he repeated the bitter truth to himself.
-Kigeek!
Under the shadows of the two, a terrifying giggle could be heard.
It was the voice of the many demons parasitized by the two.
* * *
Possibility that the Condor Mercenary Corps itself has been encroached upon by demons.
As soon as the words came out of my mouth, everyone present was shocked.
In a way, it was natural.
The reputation of the Condor mercenaries was high, and they were rated higher than most knights.
“…A condor fell under the devil? It can’t be. Anyway, that Lord Mylus is there… …”
“No, it is quite possible. If it is the Great Devil who is involved, it is possible.”
the rest of the demons.
They are all formidable bastards.
Even if it wasn’t the indolent Belphegor, there were any number of great demons that could defeat the Master.
…Maybe Belphegor wasn’t the only one who found his true name.
‘When I think about it that way, the information before the return looks a bit different.’
Before returning, the Condor Mercenary Corps was ended by Baalzebub.
All I know is that Milium confirmed his son’s death there and went insane.
In short, until now I had thought that the Condor Mercenary Corps had been crushed by Baalzebub’s ‘force’.
But what if that wasn’t it?
If the Condor Mercenary Corps had already been ruined before Baalzebub’s attack, and if it had suffered as a result… ….
“There is a possibility.”
“hmm? What do you mean all of a sudden?”
“No, I’m just talking to myself.”
I gave a rough answer to Lian’s words and fell into deep trouble.
If you think about it that way, the facts before the regression all look different.
Condor mercenaries receive a ‘new name’ upon joining. Of course, at first it must have been a ritual made with really pure intentions.
It is unlikely that the starting point of the Condor Mercenary Corps itself was the devil.
However, the devil intervenes in the middle and the mercenary leader, Mylus, collapses due to some incident.
If Mylus had collapsed like that, it would have been no surprise that the Condor mercenaries were easily captured by him.
‘What if they weren’t revealed?’
For example, what if the majority of the mercenaries have already been eroded or are being eroded?
‘Not good.’
Not really good.
According to my guess, this is a fact that was not revealed before the regression.
“What do you think of the millium economy speculation?”
“…I think the benefactor’s guess is definitely a possibility. I too felt that something was strange.”
“her…At that
, the Marquis sighed.
He covered his face with a complicated expression and let out a deep sigh.
“That friend of Mylus…”
“We do not yet know what became of Sir Mylus. that…It is probably something to check for yourself.”
“I guess I don’t have time.”
At my words, the Marquis hardened his face.
No longer did he say that my guesses were unrealistic.
The moment Milium was added, it turned into an issue to be seriously considered.
he muttered bitterly.
“I was ordered by Your Majesty to beware of demons right away, but I almost made another stupid mistake.”
“Demons are cunning. They didn’t come up to the surface in the first place, but there’s no small number of things they’re still doing.”
I also do not think that I will be able to crush all the machinations of the Great Devil.
But if you know of a situation like this, wouldn’t it be right to do your best to ruin their plans.
The Marquis looked at me.
This time, the way he spoke to me was also different.
It means that they decided to treat me publicly as a warrior, not as ‘Walpurgis’.
“Warrior. Yes, I certainly understood your guess. But I still don’t know why you came to me. I wonder if my estate has anything to do with this… …”
“It’s simple.”
I approached Cariaman.
Then, he raised his divine power and drew the monster out of him.
-Ke ek!
The monster struggled desperately while being held in my hand.
“This ominous being…“
Something to chew on.”
Milium looked at the monster and growled with hateful eyes.
“I must have been a parasite to my son from the moment I first got my name. However, it would have been less effective as much as the name was twisted… …It must have been eroding very little.”
And it was only now that the parasitic one exploded and started eroding Caria Bay.
Perhaps, as Aileen said, there is a possibility that he has grown up by pushing through his heart that was shaken at the moment when he killed the villagers that day.
…Anyway.
I have no intention of missing out.
Because this guy still has a lot to show me.
“Look.”
After making the divine power thin and sharp, he stabbed it into the monster.
– Keek!
The monster screamed.
But I didn’t care at all and stirred his insides.
It was necessary to show the true nature of the bastard in front of everyone.
and it won’t be long
“Here you are.”
Clear ‘evidence’ was revealed from the monsters.
The monster twisted around and then changed its shape to shrivel up horribly.
“…fox?”
Seeing this, Eileen muttered blankly.
As she said, it was the fox who appeared in front of everyone.
“There are many things that symbolize the great devil. And that symbol also has a class. In the case of the fox, it is a ‘lower symbol’ of the existence of ‘Enoch’ among the great demons.”
“Yes, it means that there is a high possibility that the great devil named Enoch is behind the condor mercenary crisis.”
“Isn’t that what Enoch is?”
Then the butler said.
“I remember it appearing in continental history books a few times…Did you say that it is an existence that corrupts unmanned people and explodes inferiority complexes?”
“Enoch might not be his real name, but the butler is right. He’s that kind of guy.”
Archdemon Enoch.
I know his true name.
Before returning, it was rare to see a guy who went wild like that.
corrupting the uninitiated.
It raises the inferiority complex hidden deep in people’s hearts.
Before returning, there was an incident in which countless warriors simultaneously killed their alumni and turned into demons.
Enoch was behind it.
“For reference, the Archdemon can track this glyph. in other words…”
“You mean that the great devil is going to target my territory?”
“Even if it’s not Enoch himself, something will come.”
I crushed the monster that was parasitic to Kariaman.
It wasn’t too difficult to get rid of him because he wasn’t completely eroded anyway.
“Sir Milium, your son will be all right now. The monsters have definitely been eliminated.”
“Thank you benefactor!”
Milium hurriedly ran to Cariaman and was relieved only after checking his condition several times.
Relieved at first.
But after a while, an unusual momentum burst out of her.
“The devil, those chewable things, dare to kill my son…!”
“I’ll have to check the details after my son wakes up, but I’m certain that we need to solve it quickly.”
The atmosphere became heavy.
That the Great Devil was involved.
Besides, the fact that it was the ‘Condor Mercenary Corps’ that was involved was nothing else, and it was only natural that the atmosphere would become heavy.
said Ryan.
“First of all, I guess I’ll have to move to the Condor Mercenary Corps right away. His Excellency will also need to prepare for an unexpected raid.”
“Um, I guess I should. Be prepared quickly… …”
It was then.
smart.
-Your Excellency Jackson. May I come in?
“Come in.”
The door opened and the knight’s gaze turned towards us.
“Oh, you have guests.”
The driver looked at us and looked at us.
Then the Marquis said.
“No need to worry. They are all people you can trust, so just report it.”
“Yes, then I will report it. There were testimonies that they witnessed something suspicious among the soldiers guarding the western wall.”
“…hmm?”
“According to the testimony, it was said that something black was seen wriggling, but I thought it would be better for His Excellency to check it himself, so I reported it.”
“Something black.”
The Marquis frowned.
Maybe it’s because the situation is too complicated. The Marquis glanced at me and said,
“What do you think?”
“Let’s go for now. It’s probably true, as this person testified, that His Excellency needs your help.”
“You…”
“Well, there is me too, and Sir Milium is here. There is nothing to lose in terms of power, so you don’t have to worry too much.”
At my words, the Marquis nodded.
It wasn’t a very clear expression, but it was a sign of understanding.
“…Then I’ll leave it to you. egg plant.”
“Yes sir.”
The Marquis immediately left the mansion with the knight.
The absence of one marquee has considerably reduced its presence.
It’s like one of the Masters is gone.
“Benefactor.”
“You say yes.”
“Don’t you think the timing of the report to Sir Lee Shion was too strange? Maybe this is… …”
“I guess so.”
Milium’s guess is valid.
And indeed, her guess may be right.
And it’s scary to say that.
Ugh.
I felt a strange vibration.
“hmm.”
Be very diligent.
Why on earth do demons wander so diligently?
“Let’s get ready.”
I listened to the staff.
It was certain that the attackers this time were of the type that had been eroded by monsters.
Otherwise, there’s no way it would emit such a blatant stench.
“They are here.”
and at the same time.
In an instant, where there was nothing, two monsters appeared.
Great mage who transcends by regression
