36 – 5th element (9)

The good times are over in a moment. Damon had cooled off and his face was still red, but he wasn’t as riotous as before. The adjutants standing next to him looked at Damon and slightly stretched their hands forward.

It seemed that he was afraid that he would suddenly change and draw his sword.

We watched with a vague gaze at the commander’s sorrowful hand, concerned about the runaway, and managed our facial expressions so that we wouldn’t laugh again. If Damon keeps getting angry here, the negotiations won’t progress.

Anyway, today’s purpose was not to insult Damon, but to return part of the kingdom’s land and free the people trapped in the magic stones. After clearing his throat and clearing his mind, the warrior spoke again with a calm face.

“Then, please keep your promise.”

“……i get it.”

Damon didn’t like it, but he wasn’t an eccentric demon enough to insist that he wouldn’t keep his promise in this situation. While frowning as if he didn’t like it, he drew strength into his hands.

In order to prepare for the unexpected, but not to give him the nuance of being intimidated, we cautiously and passively prepared a defensive posture and increased our distance from each other. Damon raised the corner of his mouth at the sight, but didn’t bother to argue again.

Ashuria said.

“It is a strong magic power. He’s a pretty talented guy. He may not be a commander, but he seems quite talented as a fighter.”

However, the word “significant” meant “significant” when considering the commanders and soldiers we’ve met so far as the baseline, but it wasn’t to the point of being a huge threat to us. Damon even screamed menacingly, inflating his muscles like a toad, to see how he felt about our expressions.

“Haaa!”

Cayberes commented on Damon’s dog-threatening behavior.

“Compared to the real talented people in the castle, it is like new blood. In the end, a pitiful demon who is preoccupied with female appearance can only produce this level of output even with innate magical power. There was a time when I thought it had potential to grow, but love is such a scary thing.”

Lena hid behind my back and giggled, while Ashuria bit her lip and averted her gaze. Millet was frowning in boredom, and the hero was reaching for the hilt so that he could strike back at any moment.

“Get free!”

Damon screamed and stretched his hands toward the sky. A black beam shot up into the sky and exploded like a firecracker. Black particles were scattered all over the village like ashes from a fire. Ashuria, who inadvertently reached out to the sky for defense, lowered her hand again as the black particles touched her fingertips disappeared without causing any harm.

“It appears to be harmless to the human body. I can feel a faint magic power, but if each one has this much magic power, I won’t be able to kill a single mouse.”

Damon sighed and wiped the sweat from his forehead. Then he winked at Cabares and fluttered the hem to cool off the sweat. The hero distorted his face and hated it, and I shook my head and clicked my tongue.

“huh! I will not forget the insult today. warrior You seem arrogant, trusting your speech and skills, but today is the last time you can laugh.”

Damon said that after seeing the hero’s intense reaction, and the hero who remembered the conversation a while ago sighed deeply and held his head. Then he looked around and said.

“Did you release all the magic stones with your action?”

“Look with your own eyes. What’s going on with that magic stone over there?”

Damon held onto the wagon door with his hand and pointed at the magic stone beyond the fence. Everyone’s eyes, including Kayberes, crossed the fence and headed for the magic stone. The magic crystals that were supposed to have once been livestock were melting like chocolate little by little.

The soldiers held their breath, and the nomads who had evacuated from the village made strange noises and covered their mouths. It wasn’t just the magic crystals in front of our eyes that melted. All the magic stones in this village were melting like ice in the scorching sun, leaving black marks on the ground.

“Begins! Baggins!”

“oh my! my son! How come… … . Aigoo!”

“Sir! Please save my father! Hey, the complexion here is the color of a corpse!”

As the figures of the people trapped in the magic stones were revealed, the village was filled with wails and screams. Inside the magic stone, the head of an unfocused salivating bull that appeared like a mole inside the magic crystal fell off, the magic crystal leaning against the barn melted, and the loose straw hat was blown away by the wind.

We all had to reaffirm the definite tragedy unfolding before our eyes, with our mouths shut or our lips bitten. A skinny man with pale skin collapsed, burying his face in the melting magic crystal.

The magic crystals that were standing leaning against each other melted and the soggy lumps and livestock corpses were entangled, creating a shape resembling a swamp of death.

A man with a bent back was staring at the ceiling with empty eyes, and there were bereaved families who begged the priests endlessly while holding the corpse that had escaped from the magic stone.

corpse and corpse. Inadvertently, the paving stones scattered all over the place were building a dark house of despair and gnawing away at our emotions.

kiberes.

Kayberes had a confused look on his face as his legs trembled in the corpses that gradually spread around him.

“hahahaha! The expressions are worth seeing!”

And on the other side, Damon was smiling broadly and shouting proudly. The adjutants were backing away cautiously, and Damon was shaking like an alarm clock with only his head sticking out of the wagon.

“Are you afraid? Are you afraid of this terrible thing that our demon army is doing? uh? Hand over Kiberes and surrender now! If so… !”

It was faster for the hero to draw his sword than for Damon to open his mouth further. I grabbed one arm of the hero, and Ashuria grabbed the other. The golden sword spirit soared for an instant, but it barely faded with our dissuade.

“Sigh… ! Sigh… … !”

The warrior’s face was stained with anger and sadness. Ashuria spoke in a low voice into the warrior’s ear.

“Good job. warrior. You have been patient. Now is the time to be patient. If you kill Damon right now, the return of the kingdom land and the long-awaited agreement will be in vain. warrior. You did well.”

“you’re right. warrior. You have to be patient now. Do not worry. Don’t we all know he’s an idiot? He can be killed at any time.”

“Sigh… … ! Sigh… … ! Whoa… … !”

Damon was laughing with his head sticking out even before the hero swung his sword. He seemed even happier that he had taken one last shot.

“Let’s go back! That’s it! Ha ha ha ha ha ha!”

Damon laughed loudly and made the carriage turn. The carriage, driven by two wild witches, showed off its coat of arms as it sluggishly trampled the sodden ground. We did not let go of the hero until Damon’s shadow disappeared beyond the fog.

After taking a deep breath for a while, the warrior muttered as he touched the hilt of his sword.

“…Now that they’re back, we should get ready too.”

While we took our eyes off, the magic stone’s black energy was nowhere to be found. Corpses trapped in magic stones were scattered all over the place instead of magic stones.

People leaning at bizarre angles.

Dead bodies making eye contact with soldiers with blank eyes.

The bereaved families hugged their children and parents tightly while repeating the words of sorry.

People who had no choice but to harden lost their lives because of the demons.

And here was Kiberes.

With her face hardened, she endured the wails and criticism pouring in from all sides alone.

“Asmodians! I will kill them all!”

“What’s good about that demon tribe that feeds your stomach and protects you like this! Give that bitch to be beaten to death right away!”

People who lost their temper in the face of the death of a family member tried to attack Cayberes with clubs or punches. The soldiers barely stopped the bereaved family, and Lena dragged Keberes’ arm and moved.

Kayberes pursed his lips in confusion and tried to say something to the bereaved.

“I, I… … !”

“Shut up, you idiot. Do you think it will be resolved if you say it now?”

Lena shut Kabeles’ mouth and forcibly dragged him to a corner. Ashuria blocked the people in front with her soldiers to deal with the situation,

The warrior, who had barely regained his composure, stood in front of the bereaved family to settle the situation.

“Everyone calm down! That demon is now an important hostage! Now, first of all, shouldn’t it be to bury the neglected victims?”

As the warriors came forward to calm the people, the angry public sentiment was fading again. It was also effective that the warrior covered people’s hearts with sadness again by mentioning the dead. We took shovels and distributed them to the bereaved families and soldiers, and Lena was next to Kebereth.

kiberes.

She reacted strangely when faced with a dead body, and acted like a lost person when faced with people’s anger and verbal abuse.

She wrapped her trembling arms around herself and looked at Lena.

“I… … .”

“What am I?”

Lena looked down at Kiberes with a cold face. Cayberes met Lena’s eyes, rolled his eyes, trying to find something to say, then suddenly began to vomit.

“Wow… … ! Ah, uh… … ! wow… … !”

Tears drip down her face. Kayberes’s eyes widened, and he knelt on the floor, clutching at the wooden wall, gagging and trying to find something to say.

“I, I… … ! that, so… ! ugh… … ! Wow…!”

will not be able to speak No words will come to mind. Because that’s what guilt is.

Lena said, looking down at Kiberes with an indifferent expression.

“It is strange. I wish you reflected… … . I did because you are like this I’m a little more annoyed. What kind of feeling is this?”

No one will be able to answer that question. I grabbed the shovel and poked deep into the empty ground.

For the nameless man and livestock in front of me.
