Chapter 845 – Hero’s Gaze Preliminary Skirmish.

“What do you plan to do now?”

Her clear voice was barely audible because of the murmur of the babbling brook.
However, the priestess was listening to everything without the slightest shedding.
She also knew that this voice contained some reprimand.

“…”
“The giants. Yes. They were really giants beyond imagination.”

It wasn’t sarcasm.
She said that the priestess was a big player, and she also thought that at least the demon king of purgatory would move as long as the power of eight days was enough to catch the demon king of 1 purgatory without difficulty.

However, there are two Jin purgatory.
In addition, I thought that the four major demon kings would move.
Also, among the four demon lords, he is the most powerful demon lord in terms of killing power.

She deserved to say that the priestess was certain that death was inevitable.

“But it failed.”
“…”

The priestess had no answer this time either.
Su-ryun felt a strange sense of joy while watching it.

Because of the downcast look of the priestess who always reigned over her head? No. It wasn’t.

Just.
It was only confirmed once again that Yeodere, who had not budged even with all her own tricks, was such a great existence that she could not do anything with the power of her priestess.

It’s not that she’s not good enough, she’s just great.
It’s a low feeling, but Su-ryun thought it was because of that sense of security.

At that moment, the priestess giggled.

“Aha. I see.”
“?”
“It’s a good thing.”

A priestess looking up at her training while talking in an ambiguous way.

Su-ryun understood the meaning of the unknown words.
Because her priestess was sarcastic so that only she would understand.
All of a sudden, a displeasure settled on her goddess-like, beautiful face from her training.

“But yes. As Su-ryun said, I didn’t expect it.”

The priestess changed the topic.

“I thought he must die.”

Magic lord.
The demon king of demons.
And the lord of death.

Those who are called ‘Great Demon Kings’, who have a territory the size of a small planet on this wide planet Elunar.

They’re giants
If there were only one person instead of three, the current Dre would have no choice but to die.

The priestess’ feeble foreknowledge was undoubtedly pointing to Dre’s death.

But he survived.
This time, I’m going beyond the future, ignoring even the gap in my skills.

“What are you going to do now?”
“Whatever.

Plan? Soo-ryun’s eyebrows narrowed.

“What do you still think you can do with him?”

The one who survived the Four Great Demon Kings?

“Ahaha. Is that what Su-ryun said? Everyone, is Su-ryun sticking to him like a child even after touching him and beating him up?”
“…”

The two women glared at each other for a moment.
Then, without anyone saying anything, he averted his eyes.
The fight of energy that only drains strength uselessly is training and the priestess. Both were specifications.

“…Mr. Dre is strong.”

Mr. Dre?
Why are you suddenly seeding? Soo-ryun was infinitely bothered by it, but he didn’t show it.

“But. This time he didn’t survive because he was strong.”

The priestess saw
The sealed monster kings whom even the four great demon kings should take care of.

And… And…
Even with this god’s eye, I can’t clearly remember its power and identity, an unknown god who had been there for eight days.

And the dragon.

‘I have one more usable hand.’

The priestess smiled as she recalled the black fever dragon, Malacia, and Su-ryun asked.

“You didn’t survive because you were strong, so what do you mean? Are you trying to eliminate the surroundings first?”

Training full of energy, saying that it wouldn’t be easy.

Excluding non-standard beings such as Kaiju and Hiro Kaitsu, the power of the people around Dre became too strong.

Besides, this time, Renea, the headmaster of Pryu Nar Academy, has literally grown to the level of the Four Great Demon Kings, and has she not reached the level of being called a magic goddess in her own realm, the Floating Island?

“Of course. It can’t be helped with force. Yes. Even if we try to attract the head office’s hidden powers, connections, and people from the other world, it’s probably a two-sided plan.”

She had no intention of taking such damage.
In order to finally win this fight, she had to conserve her power.

“Since ancient times, when destroying a mighty enemy, the method of initiating a fight from within has been more efficient.”
“Interior…?”

Su-ryun furrowed her brows as if suspicious.
I know very well where the priestess is aiming.

But… It’s a place where you can say that the bond with Dre is stronger than anywhere else.
Even if it’s not there, there has to be a weak part or dissatisfaction somewhere to collapse a group from the inside, but was there such a thing around Dre?

At best, women’s trivial fights?
If Dre stopped that, something like that would stop right away?

What the hell are you trying to break the bond with?

“I’m preparing hard for the plan. The place I’m going to destroy is a place that’s hard to break down easily even if I have the power to read the future and mind. Ufufufu.”
“…”

Her practice knew where she was aiming.
But why?
Why do you think they’re going to antagonize Dre?

The priestess laughed without answering her questions about training.

“Ah. We’re also strengthening our defenses. If Mr. Dre finds out about this plan, he doesn’t want to be killed by him.”

Are you still not going to tell me why?
Su-ryun was unpleasant.

She thought we’d see how long this attitude lasted.
There was silence for a moment.
The priestess who was splashing with her feet, drawing a faint curve over her mouth, tilted her head slightly.

“Ah, but where did Makia go?”
“…? Weren’t you with the priestess?”

The two girls were bewildered for a moment, then gave up.
She is a girl full of eccentricities, but since she tries to act with common sense, she thought there would be no problem.

“For now, let’s watch.”

At least until the hero’s gaze is over, he will not act.
The priestess smiled brightly.

But.
In fact, her heart was trembling helplessly.

The fear of a being that I have never seen in my life, to which my knowledge does not work.

The priestess struggled to swallow her anxiety.

***

Hart family surname.
The inside of the office where the sun comes in when one wall collapses for some reason.

I flipped through the papers in front of me.
Thanks to the newly acquired skills ‘Speed ​​Reading’ and ‘Accuracy’, I was able to accurately grasp the contents even after reading like that.

A text full of power. For example, it is a skill that cannot be used if it is a book such as a magic book, but it is extremely helpful for work.

I did well to learn.
For reference, the document I am reading right now is about the competition.

“Hero’s gaze.”
Haha. Wow. This is true. I didn’t expect it to be this large-scale!”

The man sitting in front of me rubbed his hands together and smiled broadly.

He was Gald Hart, the head of the Hart family and the father of my brother Gold.

I told Leo, the head of Gryze, to hold the Hero’s Gaze as soon as possible two weeks ago, but it’s already been prepared this much.

Already next week, the hero’s gaze ‘finals’ will be held.

It is said that not only the participants who have participated in the past, but also a large number of specially invited people are invited.

Regarding the special invitation, the existing participants could feel that it was against fairness, but they said they handled it well on their own.
Did you say that money and personal connections are everything?
Indeed, this is the part where you can feel the influence and wealth of the Hart family.

Originally, the Hero’s Gaze was scheduled to be held on a very large scale, but this time it was even more special.
It was because it was co-hosted in cooperation with the Suruta Empire.

Even if the teenage families were large enough to be compared to the country, the progress of the work was swift as the great empire helped the contest.

This hero’s gaze was not enough to be broadcast all over the world, and a huge prize money and title were prepared.
Also unusual. This time it’s a scoring system.

Point system.

It is not only winning the competition unconditionally, but points are given to various elements of the competition, and when the finals are over, the person with the highest score at the end becomes first place.

The real winner who went up to the finals and the first place with that much ability.
It’s like two stars are coming out.

For fairness, existing participants are given huge points, and participants who joined later receive only very small points.

Looking at the documents, there are many ways to get points, but the highest score was fighting against the invited masters.

Those who invited or follow-up participants only called those who had undergone a rigorous screening and were verified, so the score was high enough.
If you bring in the idiots, the voices of opposition or criticism will be loud, asking what the existing participants are, so of course they had to be those with good skills.

Even now, there are complaints about why there are follow-up participants.

In the first place, the host, the teenage family, also objected, saying that Grise’s head, Leor, was against fairness, but Gald seemed to have eloquently said that it was an opportunity to raise the fever of the tournament and raise the family’s status.

Well, I think it’s highly likely that Gald, who hates Leo, just brushed his teeth, but it seems like this happened because Hest and Dirgr went blind and sympathized with the word honor.

“Oh, of course. We will definitely revive the Love Yarte family no matter what happens.”

The way he looked at me and rubbed his hands was uncomfortable.

Although I am the heir of Fryunar, he is the head of a great family and the father of my brother Gold.

I am not one to be servile to me.

“Please do as the Lord wishes. And you don’t have to treat me so hard.”
“Uh. How could I do that to the heir! Haha.”
“You’re right.”

Both of us fell silent at the sudden voice.
Leor.
Okay. He was here
He, the head of Grise, came to the Hart family himself, even using the expression ‘report’.

Of course, the people of the Hart family were shocked.
It’s been a long time since he personally visited the Heart family’s home.
The two of us, who had been talking quietly ignoring him, looked at Leor with a cough.

He looked at me and drew an arc on his mouth.

“How can I be comfortable with the heir who survived the attacks of the demon king of Jin Purgatory and the four great demon kings?”

To be able to naturally know a story that I deliberately did not tell the world because I was afraid it would spread confusion.
Grize’s intelligence is strong.
The information power is solid, and it feels dirty.

“How come you look sarcastic?”
“It can’t be.”

Leo smiled bitterly.

“I feel that the times are changing. It’s not the demon king, but the three demon kings from the True Purgatory invade the human world.”

Leo said in a calm voice that it seemed that the ‘agreement’ between the demon world and the human world had been lost and a great battle was coming.

“It is clear that you will be the focal point in the coming future. To withstand the headwinds of change, we must follow you.”
“I see.”

Neither Leo nor I said it without much meaning, but it seemed that it was very uncomfortable for Gald to hear.

Leo glanced at Gald and said.

“…By the way. How’s the new business going? Marquis.”
“Hmm? What are you talking about?”

He made a bold face as if he didn’t know what Gald was talking about.

“Aren’t you the genius of Pryunar Academy?”
“Ah…That.”

Gald looked at me.

“That’s what I meant to say separately.”
“To whom? To me?”

When there was no subject, Leo pointed to himself and asked, and Gald’s face twisted.

“Ha. Now what to report to someone who isn’t even our leader…”
“I know the story of Madora.”

At my words, Gald and Leo both stopped.

“You said you were meeting the other day, and you officially signed a business contract? Well, wouldn’t that be nice?”
Haha. It’s not like that.”

Gald’s satisfied laugh.
… How to say.
Little…

“Dre. Can I talk to you for a minute?”
“?”

Just the two of you?
I glanced at Gald, then bowed my head to ask for his understanding.
Gald looked a bit flustered, but soon smiled kindly and groaned to do as he wished.

We left the room

“I’ll tell you. Leor.”
“?”
“Even if you say something bad about the Heart family, my perception won’t change…”
“It’s not like that.”

Leo’s expression, as if he was talking nonsense, made me angry.
When I made an angry face, he seemed to flinch inwardly, and he turned his head and pointed a finger behind him.

“Don’t you need a lady-in-waiting?”
“A maid?”
“Yes. I’m proud to say it will be excellent.”

Must be excellent
However…

“Chambermaid…?”
“? Yes. Well, it’s too good to be used as a lady-in-waiting…”
“Him?”
“?”

It was only then that Leo felt something strange and looked to the side.
There, Kitz stood there, squinting at her.

“…Not that person.”
“Ah yes.”

Thank god.
I thought you were trying to hit the fucking homo drip again.
