Luka? I Huh!? The Demon King!? What happened to the Demon King!?Whats wrong, Yuusha-sama? The Demon King is probably beyond that door, I think.
Beyond the door?
Lorenz looked at Luka, who spoke without a hint of concern, with confusion then slightly frowned at the tightly closed door.
Its closed No, but Im sure I was beyond the door
Did you perhaps have a dream? Wow, even though were taking a short break before facing the Demon King, youre facing him in your dreams too. Yuusha-sama, youre really fired up!
A dream!? A dream I see, it was a dream
At Lukas words, Lorenz began muttering under his breath, Indeed, theres no way a Demon King would throw a tantrum like a child I watched this with an indescribable feeling when suddenly Tia placed her hand on mine.
[Hey, Ed. Did something happen to me by any chance?]
[Hm? What, you noticed?]
Since she deliberately used our [Missing Talk] that only the two of us could hear, I told her without hiding anything. Tia then continued with a slightly troubled expression.
[If I hadnt heard from you, I would have dismissed it as a strange dream too But that wasnt a dream, was it?]
[Thats right. I cant explain at length in this situation, so just one thing. That dream was real.]
[Uwaa..]
Tia made a disgusted face, perhaps remembering the Demon Kings disgraceful behavior. Then, as if he had come to terms with the memories in his mind, Lorenz slowly stood up.
Alright, theres no use worrying about this any further. If everyone is ready, I think we should open the door. What do you say?
Of course, Im perfectly prepared!
I have no problems either. Im ready to go anytime.
Im well, yeah, Im fine too. Or rather, lets go quickly and get this over with.
Hmm, understood. Then lets go.
After confirming that we had all stood up, Lorenz once again placed his hand on the door. Then, just like before, the door slowly began to open
Hm?
Huh? Its bright?
Beyond the door, it was normally bright. Inside, there were no braziers that had been lined up earlier.
Yuusha-sama? Is something wrong?
No, I just thought the whole room would be dark, with braziers serving as light
Eh? Wouldnt braziers in a closed room be strange? Besides, would the Demon King be waiting in a pitch-dark room for us, not knowing when wed come? That sounds pretty tough, dont you think?
Thats right. Youre completely correct, but?
Thats true. Braziers indoors when you think about it, thats definitely strange. I wonder why we thought of such a thing?
Maybe he was prioritizing atmosphere? Ah, no, I mean, if there really was someone who would do such a foolish thing
I answered casually to Lorenz and Tia, who were tilting their heads. Somehow, this was all rather uncomfortable.
So youve arrived, Hero.
As we were talking and walking, before long, a deep, heavy voice called out from the imposing figure seated on the throne before us. He stood up, flipping his black cloak, and slowly looked down at us stopping his gaze on Lorenz.
Are you the hero?
Thats right. I am Lorenz, the current generations hero.
I see. So these are your companions Heh, an elf girl and a shabby swordsman. Ive been quite underestimated.
Who are you calling shabby! Youre the one who Tia?
Ah!? Im sorry. Somehow, I was surprised that he was speaking normally.
Ah
If the memory of that Demon King remained, such a reaction would be natural. The current Demon King is full of dignity and composure, truly behaving like a Demon King. Although theres the sad fact that only Lorenz is taking this at face value, that cant be helped.
And lastly
The Demon Kings gaze turned towards Luka. With this, the reset was successful, and all that remained was to fight the Demon King again
Well done, Luka.
Yes, Maou-sama.
Huh?
We all stared in amazement at Luka, who bowed respectfully to the Demon King. In the meantime, Luka walked over to the Demon Kings side, stood next to him, and turned to face us.
Luka? What is the meaning of this!?
Fufufu, let me tell you, foolish puppet hero of the world. This Luka, whom you thought was your companion, is the poison I planted. One of the Seven Great Calamities, Parallel Despair, is this ones true name!
Impossible!? Luka is a Great Calamity!?
Im sorry, yuusha-sama. Thats how it is.
Luka apologetically apologized to Lorenz, who shouted with a voice trembling in shock. Then the Demon King placed his hand on Lukas head and continued with an evil smile.
Hahaha! How ridiculous, Hero. Did you really think you defeated three of the Seven Great Calamities with your own power? It was all because Luka Parallel Despair helped you! And even that was just part of the plan to increase my power!
Now, behold! Watch as I become the strongest by consuming the last of the Seven Great Calamities, Abyss Devourer! Woooooah!!!
The moment he shoved the semi-transparent black haze that slipped out of Lukas head into his own mouth, an incredible power burst forth from the Demon Kings body. Although his appearance hadnt changed, the pressure was so overwhelming that it felt like we might be blown away just by confronting him.
Kuhaa Hows that? The Abyss Devourer that devours the power of defeated enemies and makes it its own By devouring it, I have made all the powers of the Seven Great Calamities my own! Now even a hero is nothing to fear! Bow before me!
Eh? Since Luka is still here, doesnt that mean its not all of them?
Hm? Now that you mention it?
The Demon King tilted his head slightly at Tias muttered words. But Luka quickly interjected.
Now, Maou-sama! Please use that immense power to crush the hero! Ill take care of clearing the way!
Oh, oh. Is that so? Hmm, thats why I left only you right? It feels that way. Alright then, Luka. That shabby swordsman and the elf girl are yours to
Im sorry, Im not that strong, so could you just leave the swordsman to me?
Is that so? No, but
Its, fine, right?
Um, alright. I understand. Now then, hero and your companions, I shall engrave despair upon your very beings!
Nonsense! Today I will defeat you and restore hope to this world! Tia, Im counting on your support!
Eh, eeh!? Thats fine, but Ed?
Hey, theres no way Im separating from Tia Whoa!?
As the Demon King and Lorenz moved away from each other, the moment I tried to approach Tia, who had stopped and was looking this way, Lukas sword swung down in front of my eyes.
Luka, you
That wont do, senpai. Rejecting an invitation from a cute person like me, or even trying to bring another girl along, is quite the breach of manners!
I see. Tia, dont worry about me. Take care of Yuusha-sama.
Ed Alright. Be careful.
Tia turned her back and left as I drew my sword and took a stance. And so, only Luka and I remained.
I have a lot of questions, but youll answer them, right?
That depends on how much you liven up our date, senpai.
Oh? Alright then Ill entertain you.
I took a stance with [Dawnbreaker] in hand and faced Luka head-on. The curtain rose on the battle between the true Demon King and Gods Apostle, which might shake heaven and earth.
