168 – What we need here is a quick apology?
Warrior Eren.
In a situation where the worst person he thought he would never see alive appeared in front of his eyes, Shud was seized with deep confusion and fear.
The one she betrayed, the powerful enemy with absolute power that she proved impossible to defeat.
Seeing such a fearful being approaching him, Shude felt his whole body freeze.
But…
‘… ah… No… wait… ah… However, there is no need to despair so much already. Even if my opponent is a strong enemy, now I am stronger than usual! With this much power, even if it’s Eren… ‘
It was the current Shud who had obtained powerful magical power by borrowing the power of the sealing stone.
In this state, perhaps even the hero could win.
Having come to that conclusion, Shud calmed down his anxiety and looked at the hero in front of him as he held his staff.
‘I don’t know how I lived there… Anyway, I might be able to win now! If we get rid of the aftereffects by defeating him here…’
With such thoughts in mind, Shud slowly began to raise mana from his body.
Seeing this, Ellen spoke to her in a cold voice.
“Can I take it as saying that I have no intention of apologising?”
“!…”
With those words, Eren slowly raised his sword and approached us.
From his body, magic power that was more intense than Shud had thought began to radiate.
A power that is so ignoring that you can feel it at once without having to exchange battles.
For a moment, Shudd started to think that it would be better to apologize neatly right here.
Whatever the case may be, it is true that she did wrong in relation to the hero’s work.
In addition, the fact that this current battle is no different from gambling, she also knew well as she watched the warrior’s strength at this moment.
‘car… Would I rather just get down on my knees and throw it away? No matter how much I say I’ve become stronger now, I’ll be at the level of a draw at best with a hero. In that case… ‘
If you think about it calmly, the correct answer was that way.
In addition, since Eileen, who was still alive, remained on the other side, the odds of winning were low even if Shud’s power had grown to the level of a hero.
There was nothing good about arousing the opponent’s anger by fighting clumsily here, knowing the opponent’s strength.

Moreover, decisively, the magic of the King of Sorcery, the sobriety-Dreamland, was currently in progress in this land.
Anyway, sooner or later, the world will be ruled by witches, including her.
In this situation, rather than gamble for nothing and shorten his lifespan, he would rather get on his knees and bow his head to save his life, and later take revenge when Dreamland is activated.
So, immediately after reaching a witch-like rational conclusion,
Shud looked straight into the face of the hero approaching him.
and…
-thud!
“… yes?”
Shud’s movements were so intense that a loud noise could be heard.
At this, the hero Eren began to look a little surprised,
Shud shouted at him with all his might.
“sorry! I was wrong, warrior! I am truly sorry that you went through that because of me!”
“… ”
Shude, with his head on the ground, speaks in the most humiliating manner possible.
Seeing her like this, the hero remained silent for a while, as if speechless, and Shud continued to apologize to him.
“At that time, I was a bit out of my mind. I was caught up in that guy’s dirty plot and tried to betray the hero. really… I’m really sorry, warrior! I will gladly accept any punishment, so please forgive me for my sins!”
The figure of Shud, bowing his head with all his might and earnestly seeking forgiveness.
Regarding this, the hero seemed to be worried for a while, and then spoke to her in a cold voice.
“There is something I want to ask you.”
“yes! Ask anything, hero!”
Shud gave an answer to Eren’s words with all his strength.
In response, Ellen stared straight into Shud’s eyes and spoke in a cool voice.
“Torare, where are you?”
“! that… that… ”
The warrior’s question with deep anger.
Shud could easily understand why Lee Ja asked such a question.
‘revenge… is it? under… but… If you think about it, it’s natural, because I’m supposed to be like that too.’
In fact, he is the one who caused all these divisions, and from the warrior’s point of view, of course, the opponent who will grind his teeth.
It was only natural for the Hero to ask Shud about this, as it was clear that Eileen had already heard that Torare was with him.
And about this
Shud began to recognize that the time had come for him to make a choice.
‘If you tell me where Torare is, the warriors and the others will immediately run and try to kill him. If that happens, nine times out of ten, Torare’s head will drop before the ceremony is over. But even so, if I keep my mouth shut here, I’m sure my neck will drop first, right?’
his own life and the life of the man he loves.
In this situation where you have to weigh the two and choose only one, Shud came to a conclusion without much difficulty.
If Torare had been single-mindedly looking at her until now,
No, at least, if they didn’t break the contract and only made love within the warrior’s party, she would probably risk her life to protect Torare.
Although she had a cowardly personality, her principle was not to lie about love, and she had actually lived a life pursuing it.
However,
At this point, Shud was able to let go of his attachment to Torare more easily than he thought.
Her feelings for him were sincere, but the dirty behavior that Torare showed during that time.
The appearance of breaking the promise with her and meeting other women and having fun made even the eternal love that Shude had cooled.
That said, I didn’t intend to give him up lightly, but it was surprisingly easy to draw a conclusion in a situation where I had to weigh my life and death.
“mind… Let me tell you. Where is Torare? that… So please forgive me for my mistakes and only save my life.”
“… OK got it. As you said, I will save your life, only your life.”
“yes! go… Thank you, Ellen!”
Shud smiled inwardly, feeling relieved at the fact that he had received a definite answer from the hero.
Then, without hesitation, she blew the location of Torare to the hero,
Right after that, the hero Eren looked back and spoke in a cold voice.
“This one is over. Please put an end to it.”
“okay.”
“… uh?”
With those words, a group of beings suddenly start walking out of the darkness.
The moment he saw them, the face of Shud, who was relieved to say that his life was saved, began to harden as it was.
‘What… What are these guys… mind… demon? there… Those two… Amelda… And Terra?’
Beings that appear in unexpected places.
The Demon King’s bodyguards I saw before,
And former warrior party colleagues.
As he watched the sudden appearance of a group of strong people with power close to the same level as the original non-enhanced Shud, two thoughts began to appear in Shud’s mind.
One is the question of whether there is something important in this sealing stone that such talented people flock to as a group.
And the other one, if he had chosen the option of fighting the warrior clumsily here, he was relieved of the fact that he would have been really broken and broken.
‘It would have been really dangerous if I was stubborn… But this situation… I’m really glad… Is it?’
While feeling doubts in so many ways, Shud watches the scene unfolding in front of his eyes while remaining calm.
There, a demon with a small body and his entire body covered in armor was approaching the sealing stone, taking out a bottle containing black flames from his bosom.
“Well then, where shall we try?”
With those words, the demons brought the flame contained in the bottle to the sealing stone.
OK…
“!! ah!”
The moment it was connected, the sealing stone started to burn in an instant while being engulfed in black flames.
As he watched it burn as if he had poured oil on dry wood and lit it on fire, Shude felt his amplified power quickly disappear. I felt something eerie go through my body.
‘What… what? uh… how is this… How could the sealing stone, which was said to be impossible to break with any attack until now… ‘
A sealing stone that was a hard stone that could not even be scratched by great magic.
The sight of it disappearing in vain gave Shud quite a shock.
But,
At this moment she didn’t know.
The shocking scene she saw was just the beginning.
The important thing is not here…
The fact that it started to happen in Lehier, the capital of the Nation of Darkness far away from here.
“Well then… Now that we’re done with this, let’s go. Maybe there is still work left to do.”
“okay.”
The hero Eren, who speaks with leisure, and the demons agree.
Like that, while being dragged along by Eren’s party, Shude began to tremble slightly at the growing doubts and unknown ominousness.
‘What the hell is going on? what the heck is this… ‘
