Chapter 70 Prologue-The King of Heroes and People

2,000 years ago

The Royal City of Gairadete. Located in the heart of the human continent, Addision, this capital city is home to the Gyaradite Maou defeat army, chosen as the Holy Sword and holding the brave canon.

As a military city in preparation for the demons' raids, Gairadete has magic circles and weapons to spell demons throughout the city. An average demonic would disappear as soon as he stepped in, or a demonic would walk magnificently in a location that would otherwise be a beehive.

This is Anos Voldigord, the demon king of violence. He walks gently as if stepping on weeds, as if the barriers for foreign enemies were insignificant.

In front of his gaze were two men.

One is Kanon, a hero with a holy sword. The other is Jerga, the ruler of the royal capital, Gairadite, and the governor of the Gyaradite Demon King's subjugation army.

Gerga is an old man about 6 years old, but the energy and magical power emitted from its whole body greatly exceeds that of ordinary humans. He is a teacher of Canon and a former hero.

T r a nsl at ed b y Ｊpmtl.ｃo ｍ Before the birth of Canon, he struggled with a number of demons to protect Azzion. Even after retreating from the forefront, he is still in command of the Demon King's subjugation army, causing great damage to the demons.

"Canon, let me go"

Jerga said in a determined voice.

Sanctuary Fiery Cannon "If you shoot <> at a close distance, you will not be able to avoid him. Even though it is a demon king of violence, your feet should stop for a moment.

"Teacher ... it's ..."

"Don't hesitate, Canon. Be brave. Anyway, I'm not long anymore. It's cheap if this old man's life is the cornerstone of a peaceful world."

The magic circle with the holy light is drawn at the foot of Gerga. Sanctuary It can only be exercised by the brave <>.

Tr an s la ted by jp ｍtl .ｃ o ｍ It is a great magic that can unite people's hearts and convert their hopes and wishes into magic. Inferior humans can compete with demons with their hearts.

"Jerga-sama ... Canon-sama ... Please ..."

"The Demon King ... Today, that violent Demon King ..."

"For more wishes, all hope for Jerga ..."

"Please peace in this world ..."

"Please protect our tomorrow ...!"

In the sanctuary <>, people's thoughts overflow and the sacred light begins to gather from around the city to Gerga.

This is the royal capital, Gailadete. It is the last fort left by humans. Only then did the prayer grow stronger and enormous.

"Go! Devil! I'm sorry for the people who were killed by you!

In the sanctuary <>, Gerga rushes into the violent demon king. Behind him, he held a holy sword.

Ghost Flame Annihilation Anos deploys the magic circle at the gate of 5 *. From there, <> was fired like a rain hail.

Sanctuary The jet-black sun hits Jerga one after another. Despite changing the power of <> to anti-magic, the magic power of the Demon King is tremendous, and his life will be cut down in an instant.

"... it doesn't work ... this is going to happen ... compared to the pain of my wife and child killed by you ...!"

A flashy explosion sounds, and the former hero continues to advance while being wrapped in a black explosion flame.

"U, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!

T ra n s l a t e d b y jpｍtl.ｃom Gerga's hand approaches the demon king of violence. However--

“…… Gu ………………”

Just one step away, Demon King's right arm had penetrated Jerga's abdomen first.

"Hm. It looks like they're just tragedy, but the king of man. Humans have killed my mother who has been with me. The feeling of being born out of a corpse is quite worst."

Gerga laughs, spitting blood.

"... Fall to hell with me, the demon king of violence ..."

Despite being penetrated, Gerga extended his arm to the Demon King.

Sanctuary light gun "<>"

The magic of the people gathered in the sanctuary <> turns into a shell and is released at once. They were shrouded in sacred light, as if they had caused a big explosion.

"Now! Yeah, Kano-"

The words were interrupted. The lungs are squeezed and power is released from Gerga's body.

"... Ki-sama ...... comrades ..."

The power of the Sanctuary Fiery Gun <> was not enough. Originally, he had the power to penetrate the Demon King's anti-magic, but his prayers and wishes have declined rapidly.

"What, I was just intimidated today."

Before the Anos killed the mighty Gerga, Anos intimidated the Maou subjugation army, which prayed and prayed for him, in an effort to reduce the power of the Sanctuary Fiery Cannon <>.

If he cares, he can be neutralized, no matter where he is in the city, such as a person without much anti-magic. Even killing would be easy. Tr ans l a ted by jp ｍ tl .c om

"... well, well ... I won't forgive you ... absolutely, only you!"

"Hmm. That's about it. I've seen you've reached the limit. You've been fighting so well, but once you die you can't be revived."

Speaking, Anos crushed Jerga's other lung.

"……But…………"

"But it won't be long anyway."

Jerga collapses on the spot.

"Well, the hero canon"

The demon said to Canon holding the holy sword.

"Do you want peace soon?"

Kanon looks back at the Demon King.

"Is the line that the world himself is in chaos saying?"

"That's right from your point of view. I want Dilheid's peace. If it's available, I won't bother Azzion."

Kanon gazes at the Demon King with a watchful eye.

"If you're interested in my words, come to Delzogade. I've also invited the Great Spirit and the Creator. If you don't like the story, try to beat me together."

T ra n s la te d by Jpｍ t l.ｃ o ｍ As soon as it's done, the violent Demon King turns his back on Kanon. Transferring Using the magic of <>, he left.

"... Teacher ...!"

Immediately, Kanon heals him with the magic of <> from Gerga. The wound was shallow even if the Demon King put it on, and it was easy to heal.

“… I ’m sorry …………”

"House"

Gerga stands up. Kanon said.

"... Sir. Would you like to return the roots?"

The brave canon has seven roots. If they were corrected, they would have been inherited from others by great magic using the power of the Holy Sword. By gathering sources from a number of humans little by little, you have obtained seven sources that can compete with the Demon King. Among them, Gerga gave over most of his roots.

"I can't do that anymore. No matter how much the holy sword, there is no return to its original source."

"Still, some can restore the teacher's roots. In his current state, the teacher ..."

"Canon. It's a determined decision. I bet on you to defeat the Demon King. Not only me, but everyone who gave you the root."

Jerga says with unwavering will.

"You are hope. Defeat the Demon King and save the world. It's the only sun that shines in this dark world. It will fulfill my longing, and I cannot afford to lose that hope in my cuteness. "

Hearing Jerga's words, Kanon silences. After a while, he said.

"... What do you think of the teacher?"

"What is it?"

"I just mentioned what the violent Demon King said."

Gerga answered immediately.

"It's not worth believing. Demons are the creatures who kill humans by their birth. Will they be destroyed or we will be destroyed. One in two. Coexistence is never possible."

Canon nods. There was some shadow in his expression.

"Canon. You're kind. But demons aren't the creatures that give you kindness. They're filthy things that don't exist in the world. There's no guilt in killing them. You don't have to remember. Rather, slaughter is their salvation. Be courageous, because you are the chosen hero of the holy sword. "

"…………Yes"

When Kanon answered, Jerga wandered and kneeled in place.

"Teacher ...!?"

"... Oh, I don't need to be so noisy. I'm just a little tired. I'm too old ..."

Kanon stares anxiously at him.

"However……"

"It's okay. Go back and tell me that the Demon King has fled. Everyone will be worried."

"……understood"

Kanon ran toward the castle. Jerga stared at his back.

“………… I ’m already at the limit ………… surely …………”

Gerga drew a magic circle on the spot. Transfer I used the magic of <>. His appearance disappears from the spot.

He has been transferred to a dim room. There are magic circles on the ground, ceiling, and walls. Perhaps they are maintaining. A lot of water spheres were floating in the air.

Not just water. Holy water, a magical tool that has no form that is said to be cleansed by God.

"... the demons must be destroyed ..."

Holy Water Polo Gerga turns his eyes.

"... Even if this body is turned into magic ..."

He muttered so with a dark look.
