With Aster's appearance, all monsters that had become a disaster had been defeated, he was like a bright light that came to shine on everyone.
With this time, Icarus and his troops only needed to kill the monsters in the city's surroundings.
Their number has reached more than 200, and the dead corpse also more than 50 people. Even though this is small, failure is still a failure.
News of this may be very advantageous for other areas, Eunzalaria is currently facing a period of war. Many other kingdoms will certainly take advantage of the events that occur.
Aster was very well received by everyone in the city, he had been regarded as a great person. His name has been known as a person who always gives light of life.
“Your Majesty Alstein!” Aster bowed his body to pay respects to that old man.
“Oh… Aster, I'm so grateful! Thanks to you, this kingdom was spared death and destruction! I don't know how to repay your kindness!”
“You only need to give me 1000 gold coins!”
Everyone's eyes were suddenly shocked to hear those words, this was something was felt very inappropriate for a hero who had been acknowledged by everyone to be paying for his actions.
"What do you mean? Aren't you the hero who is supposed to protect the entire area?”
Aster lifted the corners of his lips. "Don't joke, I'm here to save this kingdom, but that doesn't mean I won't charge you! You should be ashamed if you can only ask for help, but can't pay for it! Eunzalaria is a big kingdom, why are you guys afraid to pay me? Is the risk too great for you to be afraid to pay me?”
The atmosphere became quiet, and those who were there began to admit what Aster said was the truth. The nobles questioned whether this act was appropriate for a hero.
“Your Majesty, I'm just asking for that fee, I won't ask you anymore! You must have understood that here Demon Lord's side will make a move, they will sooner or later take action! If you guys continue to think what I'm saying is unreasonable, then all of you here are nothing but cowards who fear prosperity! The price you give is quite commensurate with the glory you will get, if you don't consider it an advantage then everything you want will definitely not come true!”
Everyone is more confused by Aster's words, on the other side this is indeed something a kingdom should be able to do.
Paying one person might not be a mistake, but Alstein objected due to the current condition they were in a state of war. Spending too much money will certainly complicate the existing conditions.
Icarus clenched his fists, here he wanted to speak up to reject Aster's wishes, but he was unable to do it.
"Okay!"
This voice instantly caused everyone to stare at Alstein.
"I think it's only right that we pay for what you've done, if it weren't for you, this kingdom might have fallen!"
A guard started carrying a chest filled with piles of money.
Aster has shown a wide smile. “Yes, I admit this is the money I want, I hope you will never hesitate to ask me for help!”
Aster took the money and left the royal palace.
"Uh?" Aster felt that someone from a distance was looking at him, he instantly turned his head. However, there was no one. "Was it just imagine?"
***
Azazel went east, he wanted to find out about the world he had visited.
“So funny, why is there such a greedy hero here! No wonder I was sent to give judgment, it turns out that the world here has deviated too far from a norm of truth!”
Thinking about what to do made him even more reluctant, this was indeed the fact he was most reluctant to live with.
Azazel tried to check the area he had just come to, and it really was an area with very bad terrain.
"Come on, quickly!"
A man was giving orders to the slaves he had just obtained, they were looking down with shabby clothes.
Azazel didn't really care about that, there wasn't only one slave seller, but there were many people doing disgusting things.The prostitutes also stood on the side of the road in revealing clothes, they teased the men who passed by.
“Isn't there a world that I can come to in fine conditions?”
Before this, Azazel had had a troubled life, he was thrown into that world with a body that had no abilities. After all that he managed to wake up, suddenly he was now there to give a judgment, previously he had also done the same thing to build a fairly large empire with great people.
He did not establish a kingdom to defend the truth, but to destroy the selfishness in the hearts of every living being.
In the middle of a deserted forest, Azazel sat contemplating.
“Okay, let's get started! First what happened to me until I have to be here? That battle! Yes, it was that battle that made me have to be here, facing the greedy nature of living beings then led to such a troublesome task like this! Now where should I start to finish everything? That white thing, he really a bastard! Do I really have to start all over again? Or should I go and defeat all creatures in this world?” Azazel looked at his hands, he felt the strength he had was still in its normal state.
If he did the attack it might be successful, but he became curious as to what kind of enemy he would face in his current condition.
“Alright, I guess it's about time I did something! Here I will make everything into what he wants! I'll make everything I've ever done happen here, I won't give every filthy life anything to do with it! First I have to have some equipment!”
When dawn had come, Azazel quickly walk off again. He wanted to find a city that was much better than the previous city.
__To Be Continued__
Azazel entered the city area which was quite crowded, and this was not like the previous city which had too many criminals. Here everyone lives peacefully, it can be seen from their faces filled with happiness.He was standing in front of a building that was identified as the building of the adventurer's guild.Entering it, there were already many people gathered, the bustling atmosphere was quite natural."Welcome!" The guild maid had paid her respects. "Is there anything I can help with?"“Yes, I want to register as an adventurer!”“Oh, adventurer! Alright, I'll give you some forms you have to fill out!”Two forms later arrived, Azazel was silent for a moment in front of those forms. Remembering a time when he was still a clueless amateur, he was even confused about how to write his own name.“You just need to fill in all the information on this paper!”"I understand!" Azazel looked for a seat to fill out the form. “apparently here the language is also different, and how do I fill i
The sunlight shines on those who seem to be supporting what they are feeling."Look at that!" Joey pointed at one of the bodies that suddenly lay weak, they rushed to that body.After be laid down, blood can be seen gushing from the wounds carved into that man's body."What happened to this man?" asked Tania.Of course that question is also the same in the minds of others.“There is only one possibility, this man is the victim from Kegure we are looking for!” Joey gave a word that he deliberately made horror to scare his comrades.Here only Lilia is afraid of that opinion, for Azazel and Tania don't think that story is a horror thing at all.Azazel never knew the creatures they were going to fight, but he could assume the creatures they were about to face had quite troublesome abilities, no need to ask, it was clear the monster named Kegure had a dangerous ability.“What are we going to do with this body? Shall we just leave him?”“Surely we have to make a proper funeral for this pers
Tsurugi is still in the back, he monitors what will happen to the two partners who are in front."I don't like this place!" Tania murmured.Seen from wherever that area does look scary, no one will want to assume this is a location that has a calm in it.Lilia continued to shiver while holding a stick. "I hope that monster is not here!"Tsurugi's eyes only glanced to the side, he remembered if he used to feel this usual.Everything that happened at that time was only a memory and he no longer wanted to remember."Huh ... maybe I was thinking about it for too long!"Joey stopped, and suddenly everyone became surprised."Wait, what are you doing?" Tania asked in a surprised tone."Shhh ... there's something ahead there!""Monster?""No, can be sure what is in front of there was something! However, the aura is very strange! "Not long after a figure of the monster in question had come out, sharp teeth with a crawling body."This is called Kegure?" asked Lilia.Tsurugi's eyes narrowed, th
This might be a stupid act, but the desire in the body is sometimes the main reason for them to dare to enter an area that will obviously have monsters in it."Look at these holes, can they really live inside?" Joey asked curiously."Maybe they live like ants in the ground, they build nests then give birth inside!"“That makes sense, but how are we going to fight them?”Everyone fell silent hearing Lilia's question, and everyone looked at each other with confused faces.Tsurugi who is here remains calm while glancing around, he understands this area is really dangerous, and can guess what will happen if they become careless.Strange sounds were heard from inside the holes, not one, but enough of them to be very loud in the ears."Come!" said Tsurugi.And, it's true that monsters have arrived, Kegure in great numbers. They became horrified by the super large number of monsters, no one expected the monsters they would encounter to have a large number.“T-There are so many monsters here,
From this event what happened was a horror that Lilia could not imagine, what happened was a nightmare that she had never expected to happen.She was silent in front of the corpses of her two comrades who looked very pathetic."What happened exactly? Why did they both have to die? Are we wrong to want to be a great adventurer?”“You might think what I'm saying is ridiculous, but you must be honest with them both! Now that it's clear, you're a weak creature, there's no way you'll continue to act, the hopes and tears will just keep happening! If you keep dreaming in this life something pleasant will happen, then you are wrong! No one would want something like this to happen, you or I am just pawns who will play a fate full of cruelty!”“I don't know what else to do, after my two comrades die, of course I am a weak person and won't be able to move! I'm just a geeky girl who won't be able to become a formidable figure!”"Never judge yourself! You don't have to be strong when they're aroun
They two returned to the Guild, the maid there was surprised by Lilia's still gloomy face.“Welcome back, did you guys succeed in completing the quest?”No one answered.Azazel's gaze was directed at Lilia. “She is still thinking about what happened!” For Azazel, this is where he must be saying, “Yeah, we've got it done!”“Oh, if like that! Then I'll give you two a reward! Hmm…” She suddenly gave a surprised look."Any something wrong?"“No, I mean, before you are going with four person, but....”Lilia's face grew even more gloomy."Oh... I'm sorry... I don't mean to make you sad...."“It's okay, the two of them have died due to the quest we doing! Maybe without this man, I would have died from that quest!”The atmosphere became quiet.“Give all the money from this quest to her!”"Eh... why?" Lilia asked.“You more need this! I just wanted to watch how you guys went on the quest together, and it really taught me a valuable lesson for myself!”"But, I don't deserve that reward, I'm sti
The Goblin became helpless after looked how Azazel was in resisting the attacks he used.Azazel slowly stepped, then he gave horror to that creature."Indeed I don't have a grudge against you, but I'm here to see how a disgusting monster like you will die a terrible death!"First, Azazel used his finger to poke out the Goblin's eye, during the process, there was a lot of resistance from that Goblin.“Argh....”The sound of flesh about to be plucked out was so clearly heard, he screamed loudly which bore witness to the pain.During the 20 seconds of the process, there was already a lot of blood on Azazel's hands. That Goblin's eyes are like useless marbles.“Hooh… you so have disgusting body parts! How does it feel to be treated horribly like this? Haven't you done this many times? What difference does it make if you now feel everything that has happened to those who have received terrible treatment from you?”That Goblin didn't understand what Azazel was saying, the pain in his right
She hurriedly tried to prove what Azazel had said."Oh, that's true! Earlier, there were young adventurers who undertook a quest to exterminate Goblins in their lair!""How many adventurers were recorded to have undertaken this quest?""There were five people!""As I saw earlier, they all died! First, I saw three men tortured by the Goblins, and two of their companions were taken into the Goblin cave and violated there! I don't know exactly why they died, but I saw purple-colored wounds on them! I can conclude that it's poison from the Goblins!""That's so cruel!""That's all I can tell you!""Thank you very much. Oh, by the way, can I know where their bodies are?""Their bodies are in the forest! There, they are still protected by the magic I provided."Slowly, her pupils widened. "Have you done that?""I only used a scroll containing magic!""Uh...""Is that wrong?""No, if someone uses a scroll to protect others, it's very rare! Magic Scrolls are rarely possessed by ordinary people
Violet approached Nadena, delicately touching the woman's skin, and then traced the sensitive area with her fingers until she gasped slightly."What's happening to my body? I feel hot, she must have done something to me..."Nadena felt difficult to control her breath, her eyes widening as Violet's face drew near.The woman's lips continued to close in as if to touch her body, but in reality, she only stood beside Nadena's ear."Do you want to know what will happen to him?"Nadena's pupils dilated once again. She wanted to speak, to make Violet release her body, but it was futile. She wouldn't have the chance.With her body half naked like this, she couldn't hope that Violet would treat her well."I'll give you a choice, but if you don't obey me, I'll kill you! Do you want to save him?"There was no response, just a stare filled with hatred in response to all this.Her periodic breathing was a witness to her courage to challenge Violet's power."True, if you can't answer, this will get
This giant dome slowly began to shrink to the size of a baseball.Zemius and Mary approached the dome, still feeling the magical power emanating from Azazel's body, causing them to hesitate in taking the dome."What are we going to do with this object?" Mary asked."Nothing more. We have to hand this over to Queen Violet! Only she will be able to handle all of this..." replied Zemius.Suddenly, Zemius looked back, his eyes fixed on an unusual location."What are you doing?""Nothing, I just feel like there's an enemy lurking there..."Mary tried to confirm this by spreading sensor energy, but despite her efforts, she found nothing; just a silence in the cold night.It wasn't completely wrong; indeed, there was someone lurking around watching this activity. Utilizing speed and the ability to erase its presence, even Azazel often remained unaware of its presence.Hastily, this masked woman left the area, intending to relay this information to Rudolf.At a considerable distance, she coul
"If it's gotten this far, then there's no time for me to stop here!"Whoosh...With high speed, Azazel's sword accompanied his movement. Piercing the current target with terrifying wounds."Argh..."Blood gushed out endlessly, futile for John to stop it, all based on a void energy that would damage someone's soul.Crash...He pulled back the sword; slowly, the created wounds started to pour out blood endlessly."D-Damn, why can you do this? Weren't you supposed to be easy for us to defeat?""How could lowly creatures like you hope to defeat me? You should be more self-aware in your actions..."He instilled fear into John's body, his eyes seeing Azazel covered in a black cloak with a skull face."Explosion..."With an energy attack rushing towards Azazel, Mary released so much energy.A single touch would result in a massive explosion, Azazel tried to evade it by quickly moving in various directions.Until a distance of 12 meters became the end of this attack, he saw that Mary and Rega
Kaboom...Only a massive explosion rocked the location; one could only wonder what would have happened if they weren't inside the dimensional space created by Mary."So, the power used by that person is incredibly dangerous. Even within this dimensional space, it has caused such a significant impact..." John glanced towards Mary.Every damage inflicted on the dimensional space would transfer to the user, but it was only at a rate of 6 percent, which was very low. However, if the attack used exceeds the dimensional space's endurance, then this rule no longer applies.Regar, who had been saved, still couldn't believe he could breathe. He looked at his two comrades there with the same wide-eyed shock. They were all startled when they learned this terrible fact.Azazel had been watching the three from a distance, his face showing anger at the situation."We can't be here for long! The power used by this man is incredibly dangerous. Sooner or later, he will start launching high-level attac
One thing Jeluis didn't understand, his opponent at the moment wasn't an amateur. He was someone who had engaged in various dangerous battles, even repeatedly devastating regions with his full power.Compared to himself, who only used strength when in danger, Azazel was far more than just a knight in combat.After all, he was the angel of death.Confidently, Jeluis exerted his power to reunite his separated body.Crash...But, at that moment, there was an attack so fast, not just once, but..."No, don't tell me he'll launch consecutive attacks relentlessly. How can I restore my body if he doesn't give me a chance..."Azazel had used a similar pattern before. One way to overwhelm a regeneration user is to launch multiple attacks non-stop and without interruption.His three comrades shuddered at Azazel's ferocity. It wasn't just about speed, but the sword's swing was simply extraordinary.Speed is far beyond the limits of an average person's strength. A speed like that might not be beli
Jeluis still looked on calmly, as if harboring no fear towards the figure of Azazel who exuded an aura of terror."There he is, let's capture him..."And finally, their presence had drawn the attention of the soldiers.Azazel's eyes glanced at the people arriving to capture him, but before that could be done, they had to surround Azazel first."You all won't be able to defeat him here!"Jeluis' words were not heard by the people; they were still too confident that Azazel would be easy to capture.Without much thought, one by one they try to attack Azazel.Crash...And that's what happened next, in movements like light, Azazel slashed each person who tried to approach him.From one body slash down, he moved to another to deliver a fatal blow.It was this speed that caused the soldiers' bodies to be mutilated in a gruesome state."I told you all that you wouldn't be able to..."Swungs...That didn't apply to Jeluis either; with this dangerous speed, Azazel approached him, delivering a d
"How could he do this..."What Jeluis did was far from Nadena's expectations. Just as she almost launched an attack, Jeluis found an opportunity to narrow the distance and then strangle her.Nadena's body was lifted by Jeluis, her throat completely choked by his strong grip."Let me go...""If you want to be released, then I will do it..."With a rough thrust, Nadena's body was thrown towards the wall. Her back felt painful, reducing her mobility to take action."Darn it, if it's like this, I won't be able to defend myself...""You should stay calm and let me capture you..."Nadena was not willing to comply. Despite being exhausted and struggling, she still tried to stand, bravely leaning on her staff to show that she was not a weak girl."Do you still want to face me?"The answer was already confirmed through the magical wand, which seemed to be gathering significant energy, preparing to be released and bring destruction upon Jeluis.Jeluis could only sigh deeply; he couldn't comment
"Will he be okay? I'm sure he will, right?"Nadena's eyes quickly narrowed sharply; she sensed someone approaching the room. No, it wasn't Azazel's energy.Indeed, Azazel's energy would have felt more threatening, but that was precisely what made it easier to recognize.She tried to close her eyes to further identify. This area had specific sensors in place that would make it easier for her to know who was deliberately coming or just passing by.Of course, all this accuracy couldn't be one hundred percent; there had to be thoughtful consideration before assuming it was an enemy's action.But here, it was some people who approached and then stopped in front of the door. She felt three energies standing at the door."What are they going to do? Are they deliberately looking for trouble with me? I thought their actions had gone too far, but what else could I do? There must be a few things to be wary of here..."With thoughts like that, Nadena became sharper in her surroundings, especially
In the end, Nadena didn't find any explanation. Azazel chose to remain silent; during their journey, there was no conversation they could do.Nadena was also worried that Azazel might still consider herself a part of Heiran, which would only complicate matters further.The sturdy man's posture showed no signs of collapsing; his serious eyes remained fixed on the large forest."Can I ask you something..." Nadena couldn't contain these words any longer and deliberately stopped Azazel in his tracks.Azazel didn't turn, just glanced slightly backward, but it didn't give enough time for his steps to stop."What?""Do you trust the masked person from earlier?""No, I never trust anyone, including you..." he replied bluntly.Nadena shuddered at hearing this. Until now, she couldn't believe that Azazel still thought of her as a stranger."Is that so..." However, what was the point of trying to explain this to him? It was certain that her presence here would only be a nuisance."But, so far, t
