4. The purpose of the Demon King

81_81228"Ah. ”

As if awakened from a nightmare, Lilith opened her eyes.

Maybe it's because I just woke up, my head hurts a little, and there are still clear memories in my mind that should have been in a dream. At the first meeting after the formation of the alliance, I can count myself as an "active" memory.

False and clear, as if it had been deliberately painted.

Holding her head in pain, Lilith began to think back to her current situation, always feeling that if she didn't want to think about it now, she would be confused with her dream self.

Well, I'm not an impostor, I'm that Lilith. After that collective meeting, even if it was an alliance with a unified purpose, it was inevitable that it would be divided into several camps, and several kings naturally attached themselves to the church and became the main fighting force of the struggle. And because Lucifer basically doesn't express any opinions, and Pandora only puts on a weird face and smirks, the representative of the heavenly realm has basically become himself. As for Onexia and the allied forces of the alien nations, they wisely chose to stay out of the equation and not participate in this boring infighting.

"Because, humans are such creatures. ”

Lucifer sighed, "No matter what awaits in front of you, as long as you see hope, you will become desperate and selfish." Human beings, there are few people who can truly share weal and woe. ”

That's right, the Three Realms are balanced, and because of Loki's aggression, she is now being chased by both sides, although the momentum was fierce at first. But he was quickly cornered.

However, this is only a trivial matter for the Demon King, and no one can really run to her territory to destroy her. It was a dangerous, dark place.

So, what is the reason why Loki has not chosen to retreat until now? Started a meaningless fight, got nothing, and went back in such a gloomy way. According to her words, this is too inconsistent with the style of the Demon King, right?

"Lilith. There's an update on the battle situation. ”

Lucifer barged in as he pleased, I have to say. He's a bit of a in this regard.

Knock on the door, this is a girl's room.

"Well, let's talk about it. ”

Lilith cupped her forehead, the pain from the short break still lingering on her body. "Let me guess, is Loki planning to leave?"

"Yes! Lucifer looked a little excited, after all, this kind of news basically symbolizes the end of the war, "Now that they have begun to repair the passage, it is estimated that when it is completed, they should choose to retreat." Angel Wars ...... There is finally a light at the end of the tunnel. ”

Angel Wars...... It's true. Because during the stalemate phase of the war, in order to have enough strength to defeat the demons, many, many angels launched suicide attacks. That period of time was also the hardest time, so. It is not surprising that this war was called the War of Angels.

But even if it's an angel, are their masters too ruthless? It feels like they're in a hurry, or it's like they're deliberately letting them die.

"It's over, it's over, but this one. It's time to go back to the state of war again. ”

Lilith said, "I don't think the kings will shake hands and make peace in this lesson. ”

"That's not something I can manage. But no matter what, Lilith, you will surely be the hero of this war. There is nothing wrong with that. ”

Joan of Arc's various titles have doomed her to have no room for appreciation, and, both in fact and in terms of purpose, she will be praised as a hero.

But...... Why didn't you feel excited at all? On the contrary, all of a sudden, I felt a little lost, a little angry. Obviously, packaging a hero is a very simple thing, no evidence is needed, just a word from those powerful people, an ordinary little girl can become an excellent hero in the war.

Myself, I don't want to be this hero. Some are boring, and, some are scary.

"Lilith?"

"Ah, it's okay, come out for a walk with me, but can you promise me one thing first?"

Lilith asked, "Whatever you see afterwards, please don't mess around." ”

......

What Lilith held in her hand was a note that Loki had thrown to her bedside at an unknown time. It's obviously a guy who can sneak in and not be noticed by anyone, why would he lose so badly?

Or is she just playing at all, and she chose to invade only for unknown purposes.

[When you wake up, come to your original residence, and this king will wait. 】

The purpose is not stated, and the timing is not stated, however, there is nothing wrong with it itself. Loki doesn't look like a guy who does all the little things like stealing chickens and dogs. Lilith even vaguely felt that her aggression this time might even have part of the reason for herself.

However, for the sake of insurance, it is better to bring Lucifer, because as soon as he sees Loki, he will definitely ......

“!!”

"Hey, Lucifer, you said you wouldn't mess around?"

Lilith hid her smile, Lucifer was really good, and "eased" the awkward atmosphere as much as possible. Otherwise, Lilith really didn't know how to speak.

"See you again, Lilith. ”

Loki's gaze took away from Lucifer's, "It looks like you've gained a man in addition to your status." ”

"You...... Hey, you're just kidding?"

After a short thought, Lilith still vetoed Loki's joke, which was not a joke.

It is undeniable that in the mood I have for Lucifer, in addition to dependence and trust, there are still some indescribable feelings. But...... This is not allowed, even for himself, for Lucifer, he must resolutely cut off these feelings.

"Well, what should I do, archangel, you've been issued a card. ”

“......”

"Uninteresting guys. ”

Seeing that it didn't have the expected effect, Loki shook his head helplessly, "Now, Lilith, do me a favor one last time, after that, I'm going back to my hometown to sleep." ”

Help? No, I should say, Loki actually needs help with something?

"Tell me, something. ”

Lilith didn't ask Lucifer for advice, for he must have looked alert by now.

"It's Lilith, and what she promised is simply. I want you to join me in sealing a monster, and of course, if the standing archangel wants to protect Lilith from danger, it's a good idea to follow. ”

"You don't need to teach, traitor to God. ”

“......”

The atmosphere suddenly cooled, and although Lilith didn't know what the phrase 'traitor to the gods' meant, she at least knew that the word was probably not to be said to Loki.

Because Loki seems to be really angry.

"That...... Loki: Let's go. ”

Lilith hurriedly stepped forward to play the round, otherwise the room would be blown to pieces sooner or later, "Do you want to buy any snacks on the way?"

“...... Lucifer, that word, this king does not want to hear a second time. ”

After a vicious warning, Loki grabbed Lilith's hand, "Now it seems that Lilith is better, don't you really want to come to serve me?"

......

"Absolutely not!"

......

Eventually, the place where Loki took Lilith was in ruins.

Of course, this is certainly not for a picnic, and Loki must have come here for some purpose.

Probably felt the need to keep a certain distance from Loki, and seeing that Loki didn't mean to harm Lilith, Lucifer was also happy to stand in the distance to let out the wind.

"What are you bringing me here for?"

Lilith looked around, the wilderness, and the ruins in front of her, it looked like it had been many years, and many things had lost their original appearance by the baptism of time.

"This is a good place, those gods are going to die or something, and they will be buried in this kind of place, right?"

Loki said, "It's not a particularly urgent matter to come today, but I think it's safer to have one more person to help, after all, they're ...... Ahem, okay, I'll talk about the purpose first, Lilith, you and I will seal this pair of souls one by one. ”

"Soul?"

"Hey, yes, that ......"

Loki hesitated for a moment, "They're like my two older sisters, but they're not. Because we are split from one body. Lilith, have you heard, Crucus?"

Familiar names...... But......

It's strange, I feel familiar, but I don't have the slightest impression.

"It looks like it's been cleaned up thoroughly, but it's not bad. ”

Loki was slightly disappointed, "In short, the main purpose of my invasion this time is also to secretly catch my two sisters who broke through the seal and forcibly ran out. They should be asleep forever instead of hanging out. Invade the whole continent or something, I don't have that boring interest. ”

“......”

"Don't worry, I can't lie to you about such a trivial matter. ”

Loki said, "This is also a request of mine, Lilith, please use your best ability to join me in sealing these two guys, two-thirds of Crusoe's, completely." ”

(Dig Loki's pit in the flashback, and mention the white rabbit and black rabbit by the way, ah, I'm so tired, it's all pits now.) (To be continued).
