Chapter 2: The Fallen Demon King and His Bravery
The brave is coming, and the other demons have evacuated.
Why? Edward couldn't figure it out.
"Won't they fight with me?"
"Lord Demon King, the strength of the brave is too strong, they can't help much, they can only die in vain, so you ordered to evacuate. "Night said as a matter of course.
"That's what I said too?"
"Yes. โ
"Tsk......"
Edward was very unhappy, very unhappy.
Forget about the amnesia, he has accepted the reality, he should live again, and as long as he finds something called the tears of the goddess, he will still be saved, there is nothing to complain about at all.
But he couldn't accept that he was about to be rushed to his house by a brave man to kill him or something just after breakfast. This is too miserable to be avoided.
He still remembered that in the past, he could capture a human city with a snap of his fingers, even if he faced the brave head-on, but now, all he could do was yawn in the mirror, and his chances of winning the battle with the brave were almost zero.
The brave only needs one blow to kill him, no, maybe a light punch will be enough.
"Hey, it's okay, it's okay, even if I die, I have a beautiful maid like Night with me, and it's worth dying ......"
Edward straightened his unkempt hair in the mirror, his eyes widening to make himself look less decadent, but to little avail.
"Lord Demon King, what are you talking about?" Night walked up to Edward and bowed deeply, as if he was talking to a dying man, his tone was resolute and sad, "Maybe you will die, but Night will definitely live!"
"Night, you...... I ......"
Edward was so moved that he was about to cry.
Yes, I still have night, even if I don't remember anything, night is still my maid, only this cannot be changed.
Huh? Something seems wrong. She said, I may die, but will she live?
Hey, that's not right!
"So, Lord Demon, goodbye. Night's smile was gentle and terrible, maybe this was the gentleness she understood.
"Well, goodbye...... Edward's head short-circuited, "Huh, goodbye, what did you say?"
Edward looked at the night in bewilderment.
"After making the last breakfast for you, it's time to evacuate the night. โ
Night's words were like a sharp sword, ruthlessly piercing Edward's last hope. She tore open a magic scroll, and a blue-glowing portal appeared behind her out of thin air.
"Wait, is this my order?"
"Yes, Lord Demon. Don't you remember that you ordered the night evacuation and chose to face the brave alone......"
The figure of the night turned into a cloud of mist with the shining blue light, the sound gradually faded into obscurity, and the whole person gradually disappeared into the portal.
The huge Demon King's Castle is now only Edward alone.
Although the night is gone, it is not that nothing is left. Edward took a greedy breath, trying to remember the fragrance that belonged only to the night.
"Hey, the last breakfast......"
He smiled bitterly.
[Even if you know that you are invincible, you must charge bravely, even if you are unarmed, you can still fight with your fists!]
It seemed to be a declaration from a human knighthood, and which one it was? Edward couldn't remember.
Whatever.
Let's sleep for a while, maybe it's a nightmare, and when you wake up, everything will be fine......
================
A strange guy in armor and heavily armed stood at the gate of the Demon King's Castle.
Edward fell into deep thought.
As a demon king, why did he lose his memory? Could it be that the demon king periodically lost his memory? Or was it a precursor to the demon king's amnesia and re-selecting the next generation of demon kings? Edward couldn't remember how he became the demon king, whether he defeated the previous demon king, or found the demon relic, or something else, he couldn't remember.
Of course, there are other possibilities.
When it comes to amnesia, car accidents are definitely indispensable, and bloody romances are indispensable. Cutie Dehua was not in a car accident, and his amnesia is likely to come from another disaster.
For example, being assassinated.
Lying in bed and sleeping soundly, he was suddenly assassinated in the middle of the night, although Edward was strong and was not killed, but he was seriously injured, so he lost all his strength and lost his memory after getting up in the morning.
This explanation seems to be the most plausible.
So, who is the murderer?
The guards and servants of the Demon King Castle had all been evacuated two days ago, and there was no one except for the night. In other words, for two days, there were only two people in the Demon King Castle, Night and the Demon King.
As the maid of the Demon King, Night is highly trusted, and it is easy to assassinate the Demon King!
The night is the murderer!
At this point, however, the assumptions are contradictory.
Since Night is the assassin, why didn't she kill the Demon King when he had no power, and why did she deliberately act and make breakfast for Edward as usual?
So, Ye is not an assassin, the real murderer is someone outside the Demon King's Castle?
But here comes the problem again.
If someone rushes into the Demon King's Castle and severely injures the Demon King, it is impossible for Night, as a maid, not to be a little vigilant, she can definitely detect the abnormality. However, the night was unaware, as if nothing had happened, and the breakfast for Edward as usual was made to doubt her.
"Tsk......"
Edward gave up thinking.
With current intelligence, it is not possible to draw meaningful conclusions. Edward felt that instead of wasting time speculating, he should concentrate on the troubles in front of him.
The biggest trouble, of course, is the brave!
There are two powerful classes in the human world, warriors and magicians. It is said that the top warriors, the ninth-order warriors, are strong enough to break down the city walls with a single punch, and the ninth-order magicians can unleash forbidden spells that destroy the heavens and the earth.
As for the brave, it is the existence that surpasses the ninth-order warriors and ninth-order magicians. The brave who uses the Holy Spirit as a source of strength, under the protection of the God of Light, wields the holy sword and slays all evil.
The demon king, who has no power, against the brave man who has experienced a hundred battles, this battle loses suspense from the beginning.
However, Edward never believed that there was a battle in the world that was bound to be lost.
Even if the difference in strength is huge.
If there is a road to tomorrow, Edward will not choose to give up.
So, Edward decided to strike head-on!
It's so handsome, but in fact, Edward just thinks it's too troublesome to hide......
"You're finally here, O Brave!" Edward shouted at the Brave as he stood at the gate of the Demon King's Castle.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
"Ahem, call you! Are you mute, why don't you speak!"
"Are youโAre you really a brave man? Or did I recognize the wrong person? Oops, I can't remember ......?"
No matter what Edward said, the strange guy standing in the doorway just didn't speak, didn't say a word.
This guy deserves the word mighty.
It wears elaborate full-compound armor and a helmet, the thick armor makes it look very strong, and it is visually much stronger than Edward. It also held a glowing sword in its hand, and if Edward guessed correctly, it should be a weapon that only belongs to the brave - the Holy Sword!
It is said that size determines combat effectiveness, Edward pinched his fingers, judging from this guy's brave appearance, assuming that he is willing to pay the price of two arm bones, it should not be a problem to resist a blow head-on.
Isn't it just two arm bones, little meaning?
Although he only has two......
The strange guy suddenly moved, but perhaps because he was afraid of Edward's gaze, he quickly stopped again, just changed his posture, and continued to aim the sharp edge in his hand at Edward.
Edward looked carefully at the strange guy in front of him.
No kidding, it used to be a mighty warrior, but now it'......
Now it's a deserter at best.
It was a miracle that the armor that should have been sturdy was somehow tattered, and it was already miraculous that it could barely hang on its body, and the holy sword in its hand had become tattered and dull, as if it could break at any moment.
What Edward cared about most was its shoulder.
In the cracks of the broken armor, the smooth skin of a girl is faintly visible. Edward didn't understand why its skin was so white and tender, it didn't look like a warrior at all, and for some reason, there was a slight red stain of blood on it.
Could it be that it hurts?
Killing the deepest part of the Endless Forest with the power of one person, and taking the surname of the Demon King, how difficult is it to be dangerous and difficult along the way? No matter how strong the armor is and how sharp the weapon is, after all, it is still a human being.
He is worthy of being a brave man.
It looks like it's going to be a tough battle......
At this time, the brave man suddenly moved.
