086. Instructor? What’s wrong? (7)

“Awe. Awe. A prophecy that never misses.”

“””Awe! Prophecies that do not miss!”””

“I will erase it. I will erase it. The recorded song of lies.”

“””Erasure! The recorded song of lies!”””

“Watch it. Witness it. The return of the old master.”

“””Watch! The return of the old master!”””

Duke Purna opened his eyes to the bizarre chorus that tickled his ears.

in a dark cave. The torches flickered in a somber mood.

Looking around, the knights were wriggling with their hands and feet tied.

‘Once a dead person… … . no… … .’

I tried to move my hands, but they didn’t budge, probably because they were tied so tightly.

The duke remembered how he had been captured here.

‘Ancestor, isn’t this a different story… … .’

Higma Forest where an anomaly occurred. There, he encountered a group of black magicians.

It is said that it is difficult for even one wizard to appear in a generation.

The worst known black magician among them.

I never thought there would be such a bunch of guys like this.

Even there were not a few of them.

A long time ago, the existence of a warlock with overwhelming power was a famous story in the empire.

It was only natural that the empire was in danger of being destroyed because of that one person.

But after that. Magicians appear one by one with very rare probability, so the existence of magic itself has not been denied.

There has never been a wizard who said that humans are used as sacrifices, and as time passed, black magicians were treated as legendary beings.

If the Joheiden family hadn’t had an ancestor who killed the warlock,

So, if I hadn’t been able to read the memoirs left by the ancestors,

Duke Purna Joheiden must have forgotten the possibility of being a black magician.

‘… … As soon as I figured out that they were warlocks, I was captured like this… … . It must be difficult to expect proper support.’

As soon as we face them, we send the one with the fastest foot to Serena’s mansion.

The second guy was ordered to prepare at the imperial level, but that was not enough.

The strength of those who actually experienced it was beyond imagination.

‘The sword doesn’t work… … .’

It is the sword of the White Tiger Knights, which has been cutting and piercing the skin of countless monsters.

Despite the sudden appearance of enemies, the knights did not panic and fought bravely.

However, the sword did not stick.

The strange anti-elasticity they wore on their bodies did not allow the blade to touch their skin.

and strength.

Each of these possessed the strength of a gigantic ogre.

Without any skill or anything, he could easily neutralize the knights just by grabbing one of them by the shoulder or hand and pushing them down.

‘They are dangerous. I need at least a wizard and the power of the North.’

The duke bit his lip hard.

Perhaps the second one will alert the empire to the danger under his command, and unite other families to subdue them.

Even from the Empire’s point of view, the duke who was with the White Tiger Knights was kidnapped, so the seriousness of the situation would not be downplayed.

But aside from believing in the existence of the legendary ‘black magician’.

Will there be people who consider the situation dangerous enough to even think about borrowing the power of the wizard and the North and prepare for it?

The Duke of Joheiden shook his head.

And the next thing that comes to mind is his youngest daughter.

Serena Joheiden.

‘Serena must have heard that I was victimized.’

The situation was urgent, so I couldn’t even ask the second person to tell it secretly.

It felt like my heart broke when I thought of my youngest daughter, who would shed tears from worrying about her ugly father.

‘Did you say he protected Sere?’

Originally, the purpose of leaving Joheiden Mansion. Zeke Kleiman.

I wasn’t sure who he was yet.

However, the fact that there was someone protecting Serena couldn’t feel as reassuring as it is now.

The Duke only hoped that Serena would live a quiet life without being noticed by these guys.

Now, they stopped the meaningless praise and started to hurt themselves.

Fu-wook

Fu-wook

Fu-wook

Even the thick sword of the White Tiger Knights could not pierce the body, and blood spurted out from a small dagger.

Some stabbed their arms, some their stomachs, others even their chests, full of madness.

“Haaagh!”

“Kyaaagh!”

“Kiaaagh!”

they were all crying grievously sorrowfully.

with a scream

The Knights and the Duke watched the sight and no one could say a word.

He just let out a rough breath and engraved the bizarre behavior into his eyes.

and soon

The guy who had stabbed the dagger in his chest stood up and let out an excited sigh.

“Haaa…”

Long yellow hair and pale white skin. and sunken cheeks.

His face already looked like a corpse.

“Meeting you. Meeting you. We are very glad. Nice to meet you.”

He turned his head and met the Duke’s eyes.

The Duke swallowed in vain.

The pupils were colored white, making it appear as though they had no pupils at all.

“Whoa whoops. This much. This much. To think I would meet people endowed with narratives. To think I would meet them.”

He shrugged his shoulders and smiled expectantly.

“Can we speed up his resurrection, his resurrection, even more? Yes.”

“Who is he!?”

The duke asked him a question, face to face.

If even one of them survived, I could have passed on the information.

“Huh-huh-huh. Are you curious? Are you curious? Who is my master? Who is my master?”

“Yes. I’m curious.”

that buck

that buck

The guy slowly approached the duke.

Then he raised his dagger.

Fu-wook!

The duke’s thigh was pierced at once.

“Keuk!”

“Duke!!!”

“Hee hee hee. Are you sick? Are you sick? He is very old. He who knows everything, plans everything, writes everything, and sings everything. He is all-knowing and all-powerful.”

The corner of his eyes twisted as he answered the question.

As if it was fun to see them in pain.

“I’m not just going to take the questions. I will. One question, one hole. One by one.”

“Damn it! Stab me, not the Duke!!!”

The knight commander shouted from the side.

However, as if he couldn’t hear such a thing, he met the Duke’s eyes.

Duke Furna swallowed a gulp and continued the question.

“……You guys are aiming for that person’s resurrection?”

“Whoops. That’s right. That’s right.”

He calmly answered the duke’s question.

Fu-wook!

This time, a burning pain arose from the side of the stomach.

“Keuk!”

“Damn it!! It’s a duke!!!!!”

ha.

ha.

“……You said that we were given a narrative. What is that?”

“Hee hee hee. That’s something I can’t say. I can only see it. I can only see it.”

Fu-wook!

chest.

“Then, you intend to attack the empire…!”

Woowook!

The guy didn’t answer the question and stabbed the knife right away.

“Turn it off!!!”

The peacock swelled up so much that his eyeballs fell out.

A knife was lodged in his shoulder.

“Haaa. This is so boring. Boring. I thought it would be fun. I thought.”

Woo Woo Woo!!

“I just want to use it as a sacrifice. I want to use it.”

He grunted and raised the knife over his head.

Purna looked at the tip of the sword with shaky eyes.

He soon hardened his face.

Now, if I tried to find out anything more, this guy wouldn’t accept it.

‘Oh God. Please take care of Serena.’

The duke found God for the first time.

The final moment will come soon.

I thought it would come someday

I thought it would be now.

Joheiden closed his eyes.

‘I would have no wish if I had at least seen my daughter’s face one more time.’

The image of Serena comes to mind clearly.

A silver-haired little angel holding her hand with her dainty hand.

Tears streamed down his cheeks.

“Dad!!!!!!!”

Yes, that cute figure who looked for himself as a father.

“Daddy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

hmm?

‘Why do I feel like I can hear Serena’s voice… … . Did God grant my wish to see him for the last time?’

The Duke slowly opened his eyes.

Then, what I see is a strange young man with dark hair… … His own daughter who is being lifted like a piece of luggage… … !?

“Three, Serena…!?”

The dark-haired young man freed Serena.

“Why did you come here!! I’m definitely to Sedan!!”

“What’s important about that! Dad’s blood, blood!!! Are you hurt!!!?”

Serena bit her lip and looked straight into her eyes.

‘When did you get so big… … ‘

A shudder running through the spinal cord.

to be touched. It was definitely impressive. His own daughter who took this risk for the sake of her poor father.

However, the duke could only put on a desperate expression.

The youngest daughter who seems to be running this way at any moment.

he groaned.

“Stop!!!!!!!!!!”

Now, this place was a place where even the word “danger” was insufficient.

In particular, the place where monsters that cannot even use the sword of the White Tiger Knights gather.

The fact that Serena came here was something he could not accept at all.

“Go back now!!!!!!”

“it’s okay.”

Serena felt her heart sink when she saw her father with scars all over her body.

However, fortunately, the father’s life did not appear to be in danger.

And what follows is sadness. Hatred. and anger.

Serena glared at the culprit who made her father like that with hard eyes.

He nodded his head, then nodded again in the opposite direction.

“Ughhhhh? Why, why. Why. Why. Why. Why. Alive? Alive? No narrative? No narrative?”

She made up her mind and thought about dealing with him, but Serena felt fear at the bizarre appearance.

‘My, can I deal with it… … ?’

A gulp of dry saliva passed.

In the end, only Zeke can be trusted.

Zeke had said that he would catch the Demon King for himself.

‘Yes, I have an instructor. You just have to trust the instructor. you can do it.’

Serena made up her mind and turned her gaze to the reassuring instructor.

“Can you believe it…? Instructor!?”

The instructor’s eyes were shaking mercilessly.

“Eh? These guys?”

And the instructor makes a pathetic sound.

The teacher’s bewildered look for the first time.

Seeing this, Serena’s eyes also trembled.

‘Kyo, Instructor? Is he a demon king?’
