Chapter 137

Mother

‘The demon race’s king exists.’

Galahad deeply exhaled.

‘Yes, the demon race’s king exists.’

Stroked the inner pocket. The texture of the worn leather notebook rose. The unevenness on that leather tickled the finger.

‘The demon race’s king exists.’

So—.

‘Not in vain.’

The breath opened with a tak—.

Then, blue eyes were seen. Adrianne clenched and opened the fist with a serious face.

Galahad long exhaled and desperately calmed.

‘Already a known fact.’

Yes, no need to get excited. Galahad passed the disheveled hair, and refreshingly laughed.

‘The emperor betrayed. No, that is not betrayal.’

The emperor who faced the demon race’s king deeply despaired. The emperor judged cannot win against the demon race’s king. It was a reasonable judgment.

The emperor made the saintess a demon race. Not only the saintess. From the demon races of the empire army attire seen above, even the demon races that were around here—. changed quite many into demon races.

That reason—.

‘To block the demon race’s king.’

How blocking the demon race’s king by changing into a demon race?

‘Lower the mana density.’

Galahad did not hide the admiration. No, could not hide.

“Because a demon race thick mana flows in the blood—. made into a demon race and lowered the central mana density. If the mana density is low, the demon race’s king cannot advance! Oh! Really a clever method!”

Galahad applauded and praised. Although the four-legged demon race’s eyes furrowed, Galahad did not care.

“Yes, so the continent’s mana density was low. Oh, only now making sense.”

It was not that the North’s mana density is high. The central density lowered.

“On earth how changed into a demon race? Ah, did this sword act.”

Galahad examined the gorgeous sword stuck in the four-legged demon race’s solar plexus. It was the emperor’s sword seen in the recollection.

The sword rusted and weakened in places the years how much passed could not even be gauged.

However, that original gorgeousness did not rust even in the years. The handle was a clear red. An energy hard to describe was felt.

Just looking at the sword extreme chill fully rose. Galahad sprayed mana. Mana disappeared as is.

‘Amazing mana density.’

Extreme mana flowed to the extent disappearing the moment brushing.

‘Not magic.’

The four-legged demon race said curse.

‘If touching—.’

The moment trying to hold the sword hilt, the four-legged demon race furrowed her eyes. Galahad was beside Adrianne at some point.

Adrianne looked down at Galahad with surprised eyes. Galahad was kneeling.

Not space movement. Just strong mental interference to the extent cannot be conscious.

“Fine?”

“Fine.”

Galahad stood in front of the four-legged demon race again. The four-legged demon race looked down at Galahad. Laughing Galahad was reflected in those golden pupils.

Galahad flicked his hand with a tak tak and organized the situation.

The emperor who judged cannot win against the demon race’s king made the saintess a demon race with the curse sword.

However, the curse was a knife without a handle.

To maintain such an extreme curse this long, someone had to bear that price.

And that—.

[Kill the emperor.]

Would be the emperor.

“This an unparalleled hero.”

Galahad admired again.

The four-legged demon race furrowed her eyes more.

“You are crazy.”

Galahad continued the words without caring.

“Trying to kill the emperor to release the curse? Or revenge? Whatever petty.”

“Petty?”

Galahad’s head split. Divided into pieces. That mind fully sprayed. A microorganism in front of a huge existence.

“······Fine?! This—.”

The forehead was refreshing. Adrianne’s hand hurriedly fell. Headache rose.

Galahad stroked the forehead. The head was fine. The aftertaste of pleasant coolness circulated.

The four-legged demon race quietly stood and looked down at Galahad.

In a state of wrapping maximally compressed mana on the head. Yet such mental interference without even contact, an amazing level.

However—.

“Weakened.”

Compared to spreading mental interference piercing that distance, there was a somewhat insufficient feeling.

The four-legged demon race obediently nodded.

“It is your fault. Apostle.”

“Said last time too, that is that each other’s goals matched. Do not turn your ability being insufficient to my fault.”

“······My ability is insufficient?”

The four-legged demon race snorted. Presence fully spread. Truly a far presence but—.

“Come back.”

Adrianne stepped forward and faced. Because behind that no influence at all.

Adrianne’s hand trembled with a deol deol.

‘Gradually the load coming.’

The four-legged demon race was clearly in a weakened state. Such a four-legged demon race facing yet Adrianne shaking—.

‘Not all high-rank demon races the same high-rank demon race.’

Galahad discarded the plan of making Adrianne hold the sword in the four-legged demon race’s solar plexus.

It was Adrianne who cannot endure even the weakened four-legged demon race. If holding the sword might not endure.

Along with that not yet fully grasped the four-legged demon race. Even if became a demon race from a saintess, in the end a demon race.

Galahad pulled Adrianne. Euk—. Adrianne made a stupid sound and was dragged back.

“Be behind.”

Galahad fixed the collar and faced the four-legged demon race.

The four-legged demon race wanted to kill the emperor. High possibility for revenge and releasing the curse.

However, felt not all that.

The reason the four-legged demon race tried to kill the emperor—.

‘Because the emperor did nothing.’

In an instant the mouth was blocked. Did not move. As if saying do not ask more. Not simply the mouth blocked. The existence of the mouth was not felt at all.

Unbelievable level mental interference.

‘Free.’

Galahad lightly nodded. Only then the mouth opened.

To the extent felt the threat of life for a moment. At that overwhelming mental interference Galahad admired.

So—.

“Will you try once more? Quite interesting.”

As asking so the four-legged demon race’s eyes fully furrowed.

“You are crazy.”

“This, said apostle—. quite stingy.”

Although provoked, the four-legged demon race did not come over.

At that Galahad clicked his tongue and took out the main point.

“Yes, what did the king do?”

In an instant the atmosphere cooled. The four-legged demon race’s expression disappeared. The air became heavy.

The four-legged demon race waved her hand. The surroundings rapidly twisted.

Galahad was facing the four-legged demon race alone at some point. Amazing mental interference.

‘This feeling—.’

Galahad narrowly opened his eyes and twitched his finger. If trying a bit more seems knowing—.

Then, the four-legged demon race’s mouth moved.

The continued words—.

“The king is trying to open the eyes.”

Fully held Galahad’s mind.

That was the end. At some point Adrianne was beside again.

The four-legged demon race continued the words as if nothing happened.

“The pioneer moved.”

‘Quite careful.’

If asking more the feeling the situation would rather twist.

“Pioneer?”

Galahad desperately pressed the excitement, and received the four-legged demon race’s words.

“The pioneer moved.”

“A high-rank demon race like the ruler?”

“Different from the rulers.”

Rulers? Galahad’s eyes narrowed. A subtle feeling. However, the important now was the pioneer.

“Is Magic Realm widening the pioneer’s act?”

“That is the pioneer’s work.”

“Even you losing power?”

The iron chain binding the four-legged demon race’s sword moved making a noisy sound. Stinging mana blew between that.

‘Pioneer—.’

Why did the pioneer bind the four-legged demon race.

No, from the beginning—.

‘What does the four-legged demon race want.’

The four-legged demon race quietly looked down at Galahad. Those golden pupils shone blue.

“Process the pioneer.”

It was a short order.

Would not have said a lie for nothing.

If Magic Realm widening is because of the demon race called pioneer, it was the reason this side was looking for.

The four-legged demon race rather gave the answer.

However—.

“Yes, the price?”

The transaction had to be done correctly.

The four-legged demon race’s face fully furrowed. Disgust blatantly rose.

“Know this side’s burden is considerable. Isn’t here Magic Realm. Know how rough the coming path was?”

The four-legged demon race’s furrowed face did not unfold. Blood dropped with a ttuk ttuk from that pierced sword.

Thump! Thump! the pill of pain fiercely nodded.

The most curious was that sword. However, the sword was not something that can be touched now.

So as regrettable—.

“Hold this a bit. Under that.”

Galahad held out the water bottle. The four-legged demon race tightly looked at the water bottle and tilted her head.

Then soon fully furrowed the face. It seemed read Galahad’s thought.

“You are crazy.”

“Anyway just falling blood. Nothing to lose to you either. Or is there something else to give? Looking while coming was empty.”

At Galahad’s blatant words the four-legged demon race’s eyes narrowed.

“You are crazy.”

“Understood. Receive properly.”

The four-legged demon race unexpectedly obediently brought the water bottle.

‘Really nothing to give.’

Galahad lightly clicked his tongue.

Not that obtained nothing. No, rather excessively many.

‘The demon race’s king exists.’

It was a reward more valuable than anything.

Along with that also knew the magic beast called pioneer is the reason Magic Realm widened. Hung what this side was looking for as a request.

‘So called.’

The four-legged demon race was well grasping Galahad.

That would catch the pioneer, that would advance toward the emperor—. certainly a reasonable transaction.

However, looked down on this side a bit.

“Ah, hang one more.”

Galahad refreshingly laughed.

The four-legged demon race tilted her head.

At that Galahad—.

“Give the purgatory free use ticket too.”

Added the reward.

“You are crazy.”

At the four-legged demon race’s calm declaration, Galahad raised the corners of his mouth.

“Cannot even that degree to an apostle?”

“A crazy apostle. Understood.”

“Thank you. As expected a saintess the ambition is large.”

At Galahad chattering while laughing with a high-rank demon race Adrianne was confused.

Then, Galahad recalled the leather notebook.

There clearly—.

[The world perishes to the demon race’s king. Important figures: blonde sword master, some grand mage, fairy’s mother, barbarian using an axe, half-demon race······.]

The gaze stopped at the word fairy’s mother.

The guy was a high-rank demon race. That too a real high-rank demon race.

Although the origin was only a fairy, worth confirming.

“You, said a fairy.”

“Yes, born as a fairy.”

At the demon race’s answer Galahad long exhaled.

At Galahad somehow hesitating, Adrianne concentrated without knowing herself.

Galahad looking at the demon race—.

“Mother?”

Called in a fine yet trembling voice.

‘······!’

Adrianne urgently hit Galahad’s forehead.

****

“Arrogant human.”

The small woman demon race, Bonnie said in a voice full of hostility. At that the large woman demon race, Bunny shook her head.

“When coming out would have become docile.”

At Bunny’s words Bonnie nodded. Because entered the temple and met That One, would come out influenced.

“Was it correct to let the offering in?”

“Because That One permitted.”

At Bunny’s calm words Bonnie nodded.

Then, foot sounds were heard from inside. Heavy iron foot sounds.

“Came out.”

Bonnie stared inside. The usual two guys were in the middle of coming out.

“······Sorry.”

“Wanted to touch my forehead so much?”

“Didn’t say stroke if strange.”

“When was I strange.”

“No! Called mother to a demon race.”

“Not called but asked.”

“······Yes, sorry.”

“No, my forehead being covetable is the fault.”

Unlike their expectation, the two guys were fine. No, not degree of fine.

“······Yet really mother?”

“No, what Gilbert-like sound is that.”

“How such words!”

“It is a joke. Didn’t you hear too. No child.”

The guy’s face was better than when entering. Was refreshingly laughing.

Even—.

“Why are you in the abyss? Not pure blood, getting rejected by other demon races?”

Even scratched their heart. Bunny and Bonnie fully furrowed their faces.

“We are the suicide squad. Even if cursed, that fact does not change. Do not compare with such unclean demon races.”

Bonnie shook her hand. Bunny furrowed her eyes. If original, would have pulled that arrogant human’s neck right now. Enduring because the temple.

“Oh, because the suicide squad. Not a demon race. Understood. Then is disliking humans instinct? Ah, a sensitive part.”

The guy did not stop and chattered. Daring—.

From inside That One conveyed the will. Just send—.

The two desperately held the anger and withdrew.

“Hmm, yes. Even if the body is cursed your souls are not cursed. Will cheer.”

The guy chattered once more as if nothing and disappeared.

“A crazy human.”

“A guy who lost fear.”

Bunny and Bonnie muttered and headed to the temple.

Fortunately That One was safe. Although the momentum weakened more, as always was praying.

“Please a peaceful death.”

In the appearance of offering a prayer with the body of a cursed demon race, holiness hard to describe was felt.

Bonnie who was looking at that suddenly a question rose.

Although That One was the same as usual—.

‘What is that water bottle?’

There was a water bottle never seen in That One’s hand.

****

“Stop grumbling and stand guard correctly!”

“This uncivilized guy who shouting to!”

At Gilbert’s scolding the demon race fully revealed hostility.

Blatant hostility unique to demon races. Although considerable presence—.

“One match?”

Gilbert tapped the sword hilt. That aura rose even rougher than before.

Trying to be with a dirty demon race, already the body was itchy anyway.

Gilbert’s sword aimed below. There the cut demon race’s corpses were fully piled.

“Daring—!”

The demon race fully revealed teeth. It was the demon race’s true nature. At that Gilbert fixed the sword.

Then—.

“Was playing well.”

At the calm voice turning the head, Galahad was refreshingly laughing. Yet that clear forehead was fully red. It was a hand mark.

“Why is the forehead red?”

Adrianne looked with a stinging eye light. Gilbert tilted his head.

“Solved the matter?”

“Yes, will release. Isn’t so?”

“Where saying.”

“This bouncing.”

Galahad alone laughed with a keul keul. The demon race fully revealed teeth.

“Daring what speaking habit to That One!”

“This bastard daring to the captain.”

Gilbert got angry and aimed the sword at the demon race. Then the demon race twisted the corners of his mouth. It was a sneer.

Then—.

“Everyone fine! Damien! Gwen!”

Tom’s voice was heard.

The stiffened ones were waking.

The knights urgently looked for Adrianne, and Gwen took care of Damien. Damien chewed the jerky received from Tom and—.

Everyone woke.

The direct unit’s reaction was fast. The direct unit that came to senses drew swords and aimed at the demon race.

As dozens of aura aimed at the demon race, the eyes of the demon race that revealed hostility until just now became round.

“Ah, do not kill. Because a guide.”

Galahad calmly said.

The direct unit that does not listen to orders unless Adrianne stopped the swords. They also seemed not noticing.

“Who the guide of uncivilized you—!”

“That One made. Surely refusing That One’s words? This, amen.”

“What······.”

The shouting demon race tightly closed his mouth.

Adrianne gathered the direct unit. At that Gilbert approached Galahad.

Galahad’s expression was better than usual.

“Was there a good matter?”

As Gilbert asked, Galahad put the cigarette in his mouth.

And—.

“Sir Gilbert, know that? Everything has a reason.”

Muttered incomprehensible words.

“What sound is that?”

Galahad’s mouth briefly moved with a dalsak. An expression seeing for the first time came out. Then shook his head.

“It is the words that even you being ugly would have a reason.”

Gilbert’s face fully furrowed. At that Galahad laughed with a keul keul and tapped the cigarette.

Then, Adrianne raised her hand. It was the signal preparation ended.

“Next the goal is the demon race called pioneer. A very bad demon race that widens Magic Realm. Said together with the main force of the empire army demon race seen while coming down earlier.”

That the goal is a demon race together with the main force was the story of having to fight the main force.

That is—.

“Come, it is war.”

Galahad laughed while tapping the cigarette.

The North’s knights followed and laughed.

Because war was their specialty—.
