Chapter 10: The Nightmare Returns

Zero, who was holding the knight's sword, drew out the knight's greatsword inserted in the ground as the nine black-armored knights knelt on the ground, and put the knight's greatsword beside him again with a step back, and the queue of "one, two, three, four" was half-kneeling in front of Rukia again.

"The Knights of the Abyss have assembled, salute."

The knight saluted in unison and clasped his chest, and the other abyssal knights did not uncover their black helmets and reveal their true faces in front of the great demon king like Zero, because as abyss knights, they are not qualified to show themselves in front of the demon king like the knight chief, so that the demon king can remember themselves.

"Yunli."

Rukia, who was very casual on the surface, untied the cloak she was draping on her body, revealing the Demon King's dress worn inside, and slowly walked to the front of the half-kneeling Abyss Knights.

Without dragging the mud and water, the abyssal knights led by Zero stood up silently, without the collision between the armors, some were neat, accurate, and single-minded.

"You guys, come back......"

Step by step, walking in front of the abyss knight who was like a black forest, the emotion that could no longer be held back was revealed with Rukia's trilled tone, and he threw himself into the arms of Zero who was in front of him.

Just accepted Rukia who threw herself into her arms without any reaction, and some of the zero who didn't know what to do silently felt the stubborn girl in her arms who was crying and trembling constantly, and an inexplicable emotion hit Zero, and for a while, the rigorous zero relaxed the vigilance in his heart.

Carefully withdrew the knight's salute, and the abyss armor that protected his body made a sound with the movement of his hands open, and he hugged the trembling Rukia a little unfamiliarly.

Mu Ze, who was standing on the side and completely turned into a passerby, made a gesture of putting his hands in his pockets, silently leaning against a tree that had long since died, watching the old-fashioned plot of the old-fashioned princess and the knight in the novel reaching a contract after danger, becoming husband and wife and living happily.

Speaking of the contract, Mu Ze himself began to be at a loss.

After a battle, Xiu Teo's mind has begun to become clear, the previous disgust for Rukia caused by the death of the little girl disappeared after being saved by Rukia's sudden appearance of sword qi slash, and the constant premonition of death and the sense of crisis shattered Mu Ze's illusion and realized the reality of this world.

But as an opportunity to summon Mu Ze to this world, that is, what exactly does the contract refer to in the so-called (trainee demon king contractor) Mu Ze began to be confused, and after seeing the contract scene like a western knight princess appearing in front of his eyes, Mu Ze couldn't help but ask himself, what can he do compared to himself as the chief of the abyss knight? What exactly is a contract? With Rukia, for a short period of time, Mu Ze didn't feel that he had zero thoughts for Rukia, respect and obedience to Rukia, just like the responsibility of the abyss knight who bound the strip, was not reflected in Mu Ze's body at all; On the other hand, Rukia gave more trust than zero to Mu Ze, and that crying face is probably that Rukia, as a demon king girl, will never show before her subordinates.

However, he hated Rukia's behavior, and even after that kind of thing happened in the tavern, the guilt and guilt in his heart made Mu Ze ignore Rukia's feelings and forcibly carry out the almost nonsensical "extermination disaster" according to his own wishes to make up for the guilt in his heart.

Compared with Mu Ze, Zero is actually more in line with the profession represented by the three words "contractor".

In other words, what exactly is the Demon King's contractor, or what is understood as the Demon King's apprentice contractor, Mu Ze doesn't know.

Maybe it's a sunny smile that is so fake that I'm disgusting to the demon king.

Leaning against the dead tree, he took a hand out of his pocket under the cloak, and a scroll containing infinite power appeared in Mu Ze's hand, as a contractor of the apprentice demon king, all he could do was to use kryptonite to obtain the incalculable magic scroll in the guild's warehouse and the equipment treasure to light up the item space.

"Good chance, kill her, kill her, kill her!"

Holding Rukia, Zero had an intention in his head and repeated it, and a demonic voice began to affect Zero's judgment, and a dagger with a green sheen coated in poison appeared on Zero's right hand.

"Hurry up and kill her, kill her, kill her!"

The glow in Zero's purple eyes began to fade, and her uncontrolled right hand raised the dagger behind Rukia's back and aimed it at the back of Rukia's heart.

"Loyalty."

The first jo, who represents the responsibility of the Abyss Knight, said from Zero's mouth, and a faint blood stain flowed from Zero's mouth, realizing that he was bitten the tip of his tongue by the controlled Zero, and the pain made the controlled Zero wake up.

With his backhand, he threw the dagger in his hand into the sky behind him, and somewhere in the sky, which was no different from usual, made ripples like throwing stones into the water surface after touching the dagger.

"Cry, Abyssal Knights are loyal dogs. If that magic arrow hadn't been hollowed out in time, it would have died here, it's terrible."

Voiding, one of Void Nightmares' escape skills, voids your body for a short period of time to escape most attacks.

The unique voice of the Void Nightmare, which disappeared after being shot by the Abyss Knight's Light System Void Breaking Arrow, sounded in the sky, and all the Abyss Knights who were originally kneeling on the ground gathered around Rukia to launch a guardian array, and Mu Ze, who was leaning against the dead tree, did not dare to act rashly and stood in place vigilantly.

"Hee-hee, it looks like you're going to show the true strength of the Nightmare, otherwise you'll be disgraced by Lord Luza, the Plague Demon King."

The originally calm night sky began to ripple, and a special enchantment was unfolded by the Void Nightmare that did not know where to hide, and the spirited Abyss Knights vigilantly unfolded their magic to feel the changes around them, preventing the Void Nightmare from attacking the Demon King Rukia.

"Cry, Rukia-sama, let's taste the taste of fear~"

Sounds came from all directions, and Zero, who was standing in front of Rukia, pulled out a pitch-black knight's shield from the shadows in front of Rukia and blocked it in front of Rukia.

"No, no! This is not a Nightmare attack. ”

Thinking back to the information about Nightmare, the shield in Zero's hand was firmly held by Zero, and he had to guard against the most likely means of attack: the magic scroll.

Constantly scanning the surroundings, Zero did not find any powerful magic fluctuations, and wanting to activate the magic would inevitably cause magic fluctuations, which was also one of the reasons why Zero, who felt the unique spatial magic fluctuations of the Rukia clan, rushed to Mu Ze and Rukia's side in the first place.

Accidentally glanced at Mu Ze, who was still on the other side of the dead tree, and Zero's purple eyes instantly appeared a bad color.

The medium is a requirement for the Void Nightmare to launch a powerful psychic attack.

At the beginning, in addition to some recognition of the other party's courage for Mu Ze, who exuded a weak aura, he was extremely disdainful of Mu Ze's strength Zero, and after disposing of all the elite soldiers of the Demon Race who could be used as a nightmare medium, Zero actually ignored Mu Ze, a low-level slave of the Demon King who was determined by Zero.

A misty void nightmare suddenly appeared in front of Mu Ze, and a bone claw condensed by the mist stabbed at Mu Ze's chest with gray magic power, and Mu Ze, who had no time to react, had no time to unfold the super-level magic scroll prepared in his hand.

Instant kill.

An instant kill that doesn't have time to react.

The bone claws with gray breath kept approaching Mu Ze's body, and a flame arrow with explosive power had already shot out from the hand of one of the abyss knights, and Mu Ze, who was about to face death, closed his eyes in self-abandonment.

Mortal situation.

Even if you don't die after being pierced by this bone claw, then the subsequent magic arrows with fire-based magic will directly blow yourself to pieces.

The fraction of a second before death seemed to be so long, and Mu Ze, who was waiting for death, was a little tired, obviously there were so many props that held his life and did not take out the time to use them, and at this time, questions about the contractor came to his mind again.

What is a Trainee Demon King's Contractor?

"Rukia-sama!"

"Poof."

Zero's exclamation was accompanied by the sound of sharp claws piercing flesh, and the sharp claws did not pierce Mu Ze's chest.

Feeling the red viscous liquid spilling all over his body, Mu Ze opened his eyes in surprise, and what appeared in front of him was his contract demon king, and Rukia, who had been pierced through his right chest by a sharp bone claw, was lying on top of him according to the inertia of the bone claw.

Rukia used her body to help me block the fatal blow?

Mu Ze, who couldn't believe what was happening in front of him, looked confused, as a demon king, Rukia actually blocked a deadly attack with her body for someone like herself.

"Oh? What a windfall, since I got the good medium of Her Royal Highness Rukia! Unfold, (Nightmare, Nightmare Land)! ”

The slightly unexpected voice of the Void Nightmare sounded in Mu Ze's ears, and Rukia, who had fallen into a coma, unfolded a shockwave with the voice of the Nightmare's sexuality, and Mu Ze, who was in the center of the shock wave, felt that his body was torn and passed out.
