Chapter 2045 – [If You Hit the Demon King, the Great Demon King Will Appear]

It was about 15 days after judging the Arkhan Kingdom that the hero Kim Tae-su reached the border of the Demon Sphere.

Considering the technological prowess here, moving from one end of the continent to the other doesn’t take that long. Looking at it, the fee is a bit expensive, but there is a teleport gate just like a portal in Korea.

However, the reason it took so long for Hero to come to the Demon Sphere is because he was unable to use such facilities. First, it was difficult to use it properly because the country was in chaos, and after things had settled down to some extent, people were going around killing the warriors.

“It is said that a hero has arrived. We have now secured a new soldier at a checkpoint in the border area. What will you do?”

“I need to meet you. Go and do some tea bagging.”

When I met him, I was so busy with work that I couldn’t properly talk to him, but I thought it would be a good idea to use this opportunity to talk to him. It wouldn’t have been so despairing if he had died from poison in the Arkhan Kingdom.

When I heard that I was going to meet the hero, Phantom and Sienne also came forward to go together, probably because they wanted to see the hero’s face. Joy is doubled when shared, so I have no intention of stopping it.

“I heard that the hero is a mess, but I have to see how much of a mess he is.”

“That’s right. And since he is said to be a hero even as the Demon King, I am interested.”

“Aside from the title of Great Demon King, you also personally have the title of Demon King…”

“Yeah, that’s why he’s a hero and there are fools coming to catch the devil.”

“What kind of crazy person does that?”

“Sometimes, after drifting in a dimension, you come to a dimensional civilization and don’t know anything, so you only see him as a demon lord and get into a fight.”

“They say a one-day puppy tiger doesn’t know how scary it is, and that’s exactly what it looks like.”

It is said that the Demon King and the Hero are an inseparable duo, but that does not mean that they are both transcendents beyond the standard. Even Sienne can’t win even if he brings a truckload of heroes other than transcendents.

If you’re just a hero and rush in to catch the demon lord… No, before that, you also have the name of a representative of a dimensional civilization. Even if I don’t kill him on charges of assassinating the head of state, I think he will be sentenced to death.

Anyway, we took the teleport gate and headed to the border checkpoint where the hero was. It was relatively quiet, so it was quiet without any problems.

However, since it is a military facility, there was an uproar during our visit as if the visiting US President was touring a military base. Looking at it, it looks like it was cleaned and redecorated in a hurry.

“Sweet, I don’t feel very comfortable when I see you like this.”

“I guess you feel that way because you see it from the soldiers’ point of view. How many times have you served in the military while reincarnated?”

“So, you haven’t completed it?”

“Hey!!!! If I could go, I would have gone!!!!”

“Anyone can say that.”

“No, this daughter is a robber?!”

Phantom, that guy fell into the demon world when he was in high school before going to the military and caught the demon lord… Ah, this isn’t important.

I went to meet the detained hero under the guidance of the checkpoint director, Demon, who was in charge of this area. However, at the same time, she changes her gender and becomes a woman.

“Now that I think about it, you were still a woman when you were judging. Why did you do that?”

“When I was interrogating the hero, I changed into a woman to infiltrate. Since the guy I’m going to meet now is him, I thought it would be easier to recognize him, so I transformed.”

“That guy has a bad personality.”

“Wow… I knew that he could change his gender to a woman, but it’s beyond my imagination that he would use the world of beauty just to work for the Great Demon Lord.”

“Well, I’m an idiot and there are few means of obtaining information, so I have to do something like this. My brain is bad, so my body suffers.”

“It doesn’t look like she has worked hard. I can see who Eden resembles, so she has big breasts.”

And I reunited with my hero Kim Tae-soo after a few weeks.

He looked neat, as if he had received some treatment, but apart from that, he looked haggard. It was clear that he had probably gone through all sorts of hardships while crossing over here.

It looks like he wasn’t able to eat properly. He may have eaten before we came, but just as he couldn’t make up for a few days of starvation by eating for a day, he had a completely different impression from the maniac I saw before.

“Nu, sister!!! You know me!!!! It’s me!!!!”

As soon as he saw me, his complexion brightened. Even though I was definitely interrogating him, he seemed to be welcoming me as if I was his last remaining hope.

I’m sure you came to see me. But it would be a big mistake to think that I will do what you think…

“Why did you come?”

“I, I, I want to go back home.”

“Now?”

It is possible. There was room before too. If the other person was a warrior who was just being used, I think they would have rescued him and sent him back to the original dimension since he was from another dimension.

The Aiol civilization was like that too. So, wasn’t that why they protected him in Korea, calling him a dimensional refugee, and then sent him back to his hometown Earth? Well, even there, the Chinese are doing it second to none.

But not them. Even though they were taken advantage of, they enjoyed it themselves. On the contrary, there are those who did not think about home at all and committed crazy acts while intoxicated with the pleasure of women and alcohol, even killing people. If you look at it, it looks like this guy killed someone too, but when you think about it, there is no room for extenuation.

“Well, you can send my sister back. Please…”

“If you are good even when you are pushed into an extreme situation, that is great, but you cannot just criticize him for doing bad things. Survival is above all values. But if you do something stupid in a situation where everything is satisfied… Isn’t that what your true nature is ultimately like?”

“We too!!! We, too, were summoned without notice and taken advantage of!!! Just like you said, we were also given drugs!!!”

“Are you acting like a victim now? If you guys had been entrusted without knowing anything, you might have done so, but thanks to the Arkhan Kingdom, you enjoyed drinking with women and indulged in self-indulgence, didn’t you? You did everything you could, and now you’re a victim, and there’s nothing wrong with that? How ridiculous are you talking right now? You know?”

“But, but!!!!”

“At least that’s not for you to judge. It’s for the victim to decide. Let’s see, wait a minute.”

I contacted Demon King Ashur with the magic tablet he gave me to use here. The people of the Kingdom of Arkhan who suffered damage from the warriors may be overflowing, but they are not here right now, and it is difficult to find them, so they called the easiest and fastest opponent.

I’m sorry I can’t call you here because I’m busy with work, but a video call is possible. Ashur reflects her face on the magic tablet.

-Yes, worst. What’s going on? I heard you were going to meet a hero. What’s going on?

“Hey, Hero is now asking to be sent back home. Since he has done something, the first thing he should do is apologize and reflect on what he did, but in the end, he is only thinking about his own safety.”

“…”

Hero Kim Tae-soo, who only then realized what he had done wrong, remained silent. If he really felt remorse, he would have apologized and reflected on his actions. Considering that he didn’t, he should know the nature of the guy.

Anyway, I asked Ashur about his treatment. I may not have suffered much, but Ashur is a demon from this world and even his magic organ, an important magical organ, was injured, so even if he recovers with time, I am enough of an opponent to make that judgment.

“I want that bastard to be sent back home. What do you think about this from the victim’s perspective?”

– Are you saying that you received a threat from the Arkhan Kingdom that they wouldn’t send you back if you didn’t hit me?

“I guess not.”

-In the end, then, it would have been your own choice to attack me. Even if you fall for the sweet words of the Arkan Kingdom, you made the choice, so shouldn’t you take responsibility for it? I am against that.

“Okay. If you do that, you’ll know the basics.”

Even those who had been directly harmed by the warrior refused to be treated with leniency. Then, all that remains is the obvious.

With that, the punishment for hero Kim Tae-soo was decided. He managed to escape from the Kingdom of Arkhan and come here, but all that was left for him was despair.

“You have only two choices. One is to return to the Arkhan Kingdom and join other warriors. The other is to die here without pain and gracefully. Which do you want?”

“My, I!!! What did I do wrong!!!!!”

“It was wrong to rape a woman at will and go on a rampage without even acknowledging her because she was told to do so.”

“Well, I was taken advantage of? It was because I was drugged and taken advantage of…”

“The drug has the effect of making you more impulsive, not the effect of distorting your personality at all. It is not a drug that will make you rape someone who has no intention of raping you, even if you make them fuck a woman once or twice.”

“That’s…!!!!”

“I don’t think there are any more excuses. If you don’t want to choose anything, I’ll choose the best one for you. You’ll die here painlessly. Don’t worry, I’m an expert in that.”

“Now, wait a minute!!!! I don’t want to die!!!! Help me!!!! Please help me!!!! Arghhh!!!!!”

He tried to escape, but it was pointless. Since he was still wearing the magic armor, he was quick to run away, but in the end, he was at this level of civilization. He wasn’t enough to run away from me as the Great Demon King.

And I used my power. They even show their own mercy by letting people go without suffering so much that they don’t even know they are dead.

Immediately after that, his body loses strength. The guy who had a burning desire to survive only moments ago was left lying dead. Now, the only thing of value is the magic armor he is wearing.

“Seeing as he didn’t reflect, it seems like he was quite an asshole. It’s obvious without even looking at what the other heroes are like.”

“I haven’t met them, but from what I’ve seen in group chat rooms, they’re all the same. It’s better to just kill them.”

“Hmm, won’t the remaining heroes make a fuss?”

“I guess we can deal with the current situation. Is it a troop attack or something?”

“Well, now that there is no national support, there must be plenty of ways to attack.”

Magic armor that gives superhuman abilities. In addition, with its property of being impermeable to magic and the support of one country, it would have been close to invincible in this world.

But there is no government support? Then that’s the end of the story. Even now, the warriors are struggling for food and suffering, but the means available here are plentiful.

To put it bluntly, if you throw some poisonous food to starving guys, you can take at least one person. Now that we have the means, Hero guys are no longer something we can’t deal with. If the damage is even 1 and the stamina is limited, it is no different from a punching bag for the stagnant people.

At the very least, if they had done well on a regular basis and had the symbolism to lead people, they might have saved the people from the current crisis in the Kingdom of Arkan… But if they had been like that in the first place, they would have rescued them and sent them back to Earth. What kind of mentality is it that you usually do shit and expect someone to save you in times of danger?

Anyway, that roughly concludes the work here. The issue of the warriors and the Kingdom of Arkhan is something that Demon Sphere will solve on its own, and it is not our place to interfere there. I didn’t judge Demon Sphere, so if there’s a problem, I just go and come back then.

As we were about to head back, Demon King Ashur himself came to see us off while he was busy. He said he wanted us to stay longer for various reasons, but we also had work to do and other things, so we declined.

“You can stay a little longer, but you’re leaving so early…”

“Because we have work to do, too. That bastard still has work to do to return to his lover’s parents’ house.”

“Why does this bastard care about other people’s romantic situations? She’s going home with the baby, so don’t tackle her.”

“When you say ‘kids,’ what comes to mind is Eden’s younger sibling, right? I want to have a younger sibling, too~.”

“… Dad, I’ll try my best.”

“I wish there were as many as there weren’t before. I heard there were twins, but I hope there are three or quadruplets here.”

“Can’t we at least divide them into two and consider them twins?”

“But it’s okay!!!!”

It was the same when Eden was born, but for a transcendental person, I am also a reincarnation and often have children, so I guess I have some influence over him. Even if you don’t plan on having children, when you see your acquaintances having children and being happy while raising them, you may want to raise children.

Raising a child is hard work, but watching your child grow and develop is even more gratifying. Phantom also has a daughter named Sienne, but she is not his biological daughter and has not raised him since she was a baby, so if he actually has a child and raises her from a baby in the future… Hmm, this guy can only see a future where he will be left with nothing to lose like me.

Anyway, work was finished, and it was time to go back, so we decided to split up. As everyone is busy with work, everyone has something to do.

“I have to clean up after them… Oh, I have to inform that Earth separately of the people on that Earth who died there.”

“I thought you might take some time to criticize me for being the president of Korea.”

“No matter what, I don’t take the time to hit the guy who is running for president. When I get back, I feel pity for the guy who is the president again, so how can I take the time to hit him?”

“Did this guy finish what he said?!?!?”

“I told my daughter everything about the robber, you bastard!!!!!!”

Fuck!!!! Even if I take off my rank insignia and stick with it, I still lose, so it sucks!!!! I’m somewhat satisfied after it’s loaded, but I’m seriously wondering if I should become an absolute ruler!!!! As a Lord, I am at the lowest level, and I am not a transcendental person who easily becomes Lord, so I am not at the level that counts behind him, and I am in last place, but when I think about that bastard Phantom, the desire to become an absolute person springs up!!!!

But before that, if you become an absolute person, the concept you will be in charge of is… The absolute person of destiny?

… Fuck you, the Absolute One, really give up.
