Chapter 390 – 34. One Point Between Two Islands
Uuuuu!
The demon prince Hunt appears above the magic circle with light.
As soon as he put both feet on the floor, he fell forward and coughed repeatedly.
“Ugh. Ugh, clack! Cluck…!”
My whole body feels heavy, and my head hurts.
An ultra-long distance transfer that is incomparable to moving from Fox Island to Oni Island.
I had prepared in advance by investing quite a bit, but this time I went overboard.
Wasn’t it cast suddenly and used right away in an empty place?
Since there had been a fierce battle using spirits just before, the reaction was large.
“Heh. Hehe. Still… I somehow survived with the minimum price. … Chul.”
Minimum price.
Hunt thought so.
The sacrifice to be offered to the Grim Reaper is to give what you have collected so far.
Although the body is not healthy, it is not life-threatening and can be recovered after a few months of thorough treatment.
The most painful part is the plan to overthrow Futashima, which was prepared over a short period of time.
And it was a position and reputation that would fall due to failure.
There are already so many operations that have been invalidated because of the saint, so it is a time of stinging.
‘At least for a while… I won’t have a chance to step forward.’
Squeak.
“I heard something… Uh, huh? Wow! HUMT!”
“Yo, Viol, cluck. Let.”
“What the hell is going on!”
Violet, the guardian of the main temple, came down to see if there was a sound coming from the basement of the main temple.
She was startled by a scene more horrifying than she could have imagined and hurriedly ran to her lover.
It’s been a few months, if not a long time, since we’ve been reunited.
Hume looked up at Violet and burst out laughing.
“Haha.”
“What are you laughing at!”
The guardian was annoyed and angry
On the outside, it looks fine.
There is nothing particularly broken or damaged.
However, it was only limited to trauma, and it was not enough to say that Hume was devastated.
Because she saw it all at once thanks to the guardian’s power, Violet felt even more upset.
“I’m fine. Just take it in moderation… Whew. Just rest for a few months.”
“A few months… Haha. I guess so.”
Violet put her hand to her own forehead as she looked at her lover who was talking like it was no big deal.
I couldn’t help but sigh at her pounding headache.
A few months is not a long time.
However, it was enough time to shake Hume’s position, which had been built up over several years.
“It’s okay. Don’t worry too much. The real story of our demons is eight years away, right?”
“…”
It’s not wrong.
The resurrection of the devil.
No, awakening.
The supreme life form created by the six demon gods is the strongest faction of the demon camp.
In the end, what the demons are doing is just preparing for that time and accumulating achievements for after victory.
But the same goes for Hume.
“Is that okay?”
Violet asked with a trembling voice.
It is possible to improve your condition by resting for a few months and then move again.
Although he was blocked and hindered by numerous conspiracies and underworlds, Hunt really prepared a lot.
This is not the end, and there is plenty of room for comeback.
Nevertheless, the reason Violet asks this is that there are people who moved first.
“Ugh. Violet. Can you move me to bed first?”
“Huh? Oh, sorry!”
Violet carefully lifted her lover using magic.
It was a mistake.
I should have moved him because he was injured a long time ago.
“I’ll take you to my room, not yours. It would be best to hide… For a while.”
“Yes, I think the same thing.”
Hunt is the 4th prince of Mystica and also holds the title of high priest.
As he was not of low status, he was assigned a room in the main shrine, but it was dangerous now.
The imperial family of the Mystica Empire is extremely heartless.
If it was known that the body was in this state, it would not be surprising if he was suddenly assassinated one day.
He has many competitors, including his older brother, older sister, and younger brother.
“Oh no. Man… That’s enough. Let’s go quickly.”
“I’m on my way to you?”
“Ugh. It’s noisy.”
Even though his cheeks were red with embarrassment, Violet diligently walked to his room.
She is the only guardian of the main shrine where the six demon gods are worshiped.
It is a high position that cannot be compared to something like a high minister.
When she was like before, the only people higher than her were demons and demon lords.
If you hide your lover here, there is no risk of being discovered until she recovers to some extent.
“Whew, that’s it.”
Violet, who barely returned to the room, laid him down on the bed and fed him a potion.
Although it is a temporary measure, this will stabilize the internal injuries to some extent.
“Gulp, gulp. … Ha. Thank you. Thanks to you, I survived.”
Hunt intentionally puts on a cheerful voice and reassures his lover.
However, Violet’s expression was still dark.
“… The 1st prince moved.”
“What? That guy?”
Terrible news coming out of the sweet mouth of a lover.
What she said was enough to make her face crumple.
That’s right, the 1st Prince, along with Hume, is the closest and one of the few real competitors to the throne.
The 1st prince’s movements are bound to shake the empire and the demon world.
But I didn’t understand.
“Why did it happen like that? The Succubus Queen and that man must have already taken action.”
He talked about what happened at the previous meeting.
A meeting held when Hume returned from being seriously injured by Adlen Party.
Dozens of monsters from the seven nations and eighteen demon tribes of the Demon World had gathered to discuss their next plans and measures.
Hume was also qualified to attend, but he was afraid he would be criticized, so he excused himself due to injury.
Instead, I heard what happened that day from Violet, the host of the meeting and my lover.
In fact, there was only one thing decided that day.
In order to deal with Saint Han Si-woo, two of the leaders in the conference room moved.
The natural enemy of male warriors, the Succubus Queen who leads the Succubus clan.
Thaum, the king of Gashiz, an energy creature with flames all over its body.
Not to mention the former, the latter is also a strong figure recognized in the magic world.
In addition to military power, since they are the leaders of a race, their influence goes without saying.
But how can the 1st prince move as he pleases?
“It’s because the reasons for both are different. First, Succubus and Gashizu…”
“Aha. What is the purpose of this side to do with the saint?”
“Yes. It’s just as you said.”
“Ha, that’s ridiculous.”
It’s a funny story.
Then why did he travel around the continent alone, plotting all kinds of schemes?
Although it was convenient to move alone, it would have been much more convenient if other demons had done the work elsewhere.
“I guess it’s just that the location itself is different. I paid a considerable price for stepping forward late.”
“Hmph. Anyway, I don’t like this guy.”
Hume continued to complain, but there was nothing he could do now.
Aside from his physical condition, the first prince is currently the man most favored by the emperor.
The reason he didn’t become the prince was just a matter of merit and support from other demons.
“Calm down and get some rest for now. There’s nothing we can do anyway, right? Let’s think about the rest later.”
“Damn, I guess so.”
Hunt relaxed his body and closed his eyes.
As she said, she wanted to rest for a while.
Fortunately, Violet didn’t seem to notice, but besides the internal injuries, his body wasn’t in very good shape.
It was at that time that I remembered the previous injury that I had forgotten about because of other things.
“… Ah. Hey, Violet.”
“Why? Do you need anything?”
“I… I’m sorry, but can you look down there?”
“Down? … Hmm♡”
The purple-haired beauty slightly lifted the corner of her mouth.
It was the first time.
This is what he said.
“Hunt, my love. It looks like you’ve been under a lot of stress.”
“Oh, no. That’s not it…”
“What, no?”
Hunt swallows dry saliva at the evil look in his lover’s eyes.
Perhaps because of the intense power struggle, the men of the Demon tribe are more ambitious than those on the continent.
However, things about sexual desire and sexual function are generally similar.
Hume was no exception.
“Yes, actually…”
When Hume told one of the heroes that he had hurt his lower leg, Violet became furious.
“Why are you saying that now?”
“No, that…”
She didn’t even listen to her lover’s excuses and hurriedly took off the blanket.
Then he took off his pants and looked at his genitals.
“…”
Her complexion getting darker and her lips unable to speak.
The demon prince’s face turned pale at the hopeless future that he knew even without hearing.
“Then let’s just part ways.”
“Huh? What are you talking about, all of a sudden?”
The Succubus Queen’s eyes widened at her companion’s unexpected words.
“I told you. I came because I had something else to look for.”
“No, but not like this!!”
She was angry, but if others saw it, it was an understandable reason.
Currently, they are the only ones working independently as part of the Saint Countermeasures Team.
We took a risk and took a slight detour to get to the continent, but we decided to part ways.
There is no answer if you act separately and end up in danger.
“Neither you nor I can use our power right now, how can you do that, you idiot!”
Thaum, King of Gashiz, frowned at the Succubus Queen’s insults.
Then the Succubus Queen clapped as if she was surprised.
“Oh. Sounds good?”
“What?”
“No, when my body was on fire, I couldn’t read their expressions at all, but not now. That skin is fine!”
“I’m so stuffy I feel like I’m going to die.”
Gashizu was basically a demon whose entire body was made of flame.
She would have been caught very easily if she infiltrated the continent in that state, so she used some kind of artifact to disguise herself as a human.
It is said that if you use a certain amount of force, it will be released immediately, but it was frustrating as if Taum was trapped somewhere.
“I can’t help it.”
“I know that too…”
“I’ll follow you too.”
“… What?”
“How much can we do if we move separately? Let’s finish your business quickly and then go catch the saint.”
“… Well, it’s good. It’s good if I can get help.”
“So where are you going?”
“It’s not that far.”
Thaum turned his head and looked beyond the horizon.
“One of the four major dungeons that humans talk about, the Dolumuz Dungeon in the desert. That’s what I want there.”
