CH.19 The Aftermath of the Battlefield
In the huge castle located in the southernmost part of the depths of the Demon Realm, a silver-haired middle-aged man was sitting alone on the throne, and the empty hall was illuminated by the lightning and thunder outside the castle.
"What a rarity, I didn't expect you to come to me in person. The man put down the wine glass in his hand, and the dark red liquid in the glass was churning slightly.
"It's rude. A black figure slowly appeared in the center of the main hall, and it was impossible to see the appearance of the visitor because it was shrouded in black magic like mist.
"Tell me, what are you here for?"
"You must have noticed it, Fardi's presence is completely gone. β
"That paranoid battle maniac, clamoring to conquer the human world, and being killed... β
"It's pretty much like this, but kill him... β
"I know, the fourth guy has appeared. β
"Ragnarok has begun, as the two remaining kings, should we do something?"
"What, are you going to do it with me?" the man slowly rose from his throne, staring at the visitor below.
"Of course not, I haven't been impulsive enough to do such an irrational thing because of Faldi's death. β
"Hmph, boring fellow. β
"This time I'm just here to meet you, and whether we will become enemies or join forces to fight against the newborn demon king after that will need to be judged according to the form of the future. β
"Boring, I won't ally with anyone!As a king, I don't need to rely on other people's strength to protect myself!"
"Understood, then I'll retire first. The figure of the ghost gradually dissipated into the hall.
"Ragnarok... The man sat back on his throne, a smile tugging at the corner of his mouth......
The biting cold wind woke the unconscious Iska, and she slowly opened her eyes to find herself prostrate on the back of a white wyvern.
"This is?!" she sat up sharply, but fell from the sky with a backward fall from her unstable balance. The Wyvern, on the other hand, turned over and chased after the falling Iska, catching her in the air.
Falling on the hard dragon scales, Iskar felt that the bones in her body were about to fall apart, and she gritted her teeth to endure the pain and hugged the wyvern's neck tightly.
"Whose contract partner are you?!Where are you taking me?!" Iskar tried to communicate with the white dragon carrying him.
Although he couldn't speak, the white dragon raised his head and pressed the back of his neck to Iska's forehead.
"This is?!" Some scenes suddenly appeared in her mind, as if the white dragon had directly instilled in her what he had seen and heard.
"You're the kid Gardia brought?!No, I can't go!Stop!Take me back!" Knowing the situation, Iskar gently slapped the wyvern's neck with his hand. However, the Wyvern had no intention of turning back, after all, it was a request from Gardia, and it had to abide by the agreement.
Seeing that the wyvern ignored her, Iskar planned to go back on her own, and she raised her hand to conjure up the holy sword, allowing the golden power to envelop her body again. Relying on this power, she leaped off the dragon's back, and at the same time manipulated the wind magic to lift her body in the air and fly in the direction of the battlefield.
Seeing that Iskar insisted on going back, the flying dragon could only stop moving forward, turned around and flew to the battlefield with Iska, deep down, it was actually very worried about Gardia's safety.
After flying at high speed in the air for a while, Iskar saw a huge crater in the air, and the whole earth seemed to be swallowed up by a huge force, and a lone figure stood alone in the center of the charred crater.
"That's ... Haruka!!" Although his appearance had changed, Iskar recognized him at a glance. In the distance, the surviving raiders were gathering from all directions.
Iskar flew in front of Haruka, and because she was already seriously injured, she could barely stand up when she fell, and could only barely lean on the holy sword to support her.
"Haruka, are you alright?" said Iska, though a little weak, to talk to him. However, Haruka didn't react at any time at this time.
"Your Highness Princess!!Get out of him!!!" shouted the warrior who arrived first at Iska.
"What?!" Iska turned his head to find that the people who had arrived one after another were looking at Haruka with fearful eyes.
"Get out of here!" that guy is a demon !!" the crowd began to shout out to Iska.
"Wait, what are you talking about, how can Haruka be a demon... Iskar looked back at Haruka, only to see that Haruka had already raised her hand, and before she could react, Haruka had already swung a fierce blow, throwing her whole person out and slamming into the crowd.
"Attack!!Kill him!!" Everyone instantly drew their weapons and rushed towards Haruka, while the unconscious Iskar raised his hand and shouted in a weak voice, "Stop! Don't hurt Haruka! Demonsγγγ β
