Episode 108 Hell's Fire
A monster from a fairy tale.
The resurrection of the dragon that appears in mythology.
The ``King'' revived from his sleep and let out a roar of black flame.
"Who will take away my power?"
He was aware that magic was being taken away through the wand.
Hell King Belorg is a proud dragon and ``king''. He will never forgive anyone who took away his power and used it for their own purposes. Hellfire is already raging around the large hole he created when he was resurrected. He was the first to burn down the people of the imperial capital. However, the first target to be met is the one who usurped the magical power. Belorg had already found his partner due to their magical connection.
"Thank you for reviving me. I'll kill you before I feel any pain."
Belorg, the ``king'' who creates hell.
Many legends have been passed down in the Great Empire of Sbarokia and its vassals.
A monster that creates hell with terrifying black flames.
The king's magical power that summons demons.
Never wake him from his sleep.
Never resist.
Helllord Belorg is a disaster.
He just trembles and waits for it to pass.
That is a legend that will be passed down from generation to generation.
◆◆◆
Shu visually recognized the magical power that exploded in the center of the imperial capital.
And there was also the figure of a black dragon spreading its wings along with the hellfire.
"Finally revived?"
Hidden magical power, emitted magical power, and hellfire magic.
He was a ``king'' comparable to the Hades, Shu Arclight. And the ``King'' of the flying dragons, Hell King Belorg, burned down a corner of the castle wall with his tremendous hellfire magic. Its firepower, range, and depth of curse are on an order of magnitude. It cannot be compared to the hellfire magic drawn from Albain's staff.
Several generals are engulfed in flames and die.
The dragon-type monster that crawled out from beneath the imperial capital was enough to cause fear. Hell King Belorg is a Despair Dyspia class monster. It brings despair to people and the world.
“No human can kill that.”
You can tell because they use the same magic. Shu is not weak enough to be killed like a human. In fact, it would be more difficult for him to be killed.
If he leaves it to Hell King Belorg, Shu's wish will probably come true.
Several ``Netherworld'' were satisfied by inhaling the hellfire, and the hole in the space was closed in an instant.
There is no need for Shu to intervene any further.
It appears that the Revolutionary Army Rebellion has also stopped approaching and is preparing to retreat. The imperial city of Aldar, which has suffered the wrath of Hell King Belorg, will be destroyed even if nothing is done. It is more dangerous to do it poorly.
Belorg is a disaster.
Just wait for it to pass.
I was concerned about the Gokuou, who is also of the same rank as Shu, but I was planning to wait and see.
"It's... it's dangerous."
The hellfire magic was emitted over a fairly wide area.
A stray bullet also hit Shu. Of course, it will be absorbed by death magic.
(Can it also kill magic?)
The essence of death magic is the loss of energy.
Shu inflicts death by stealing energy. The same goes for magic. However, if it cannot absorb enough energy, it cannot be killed. Although it can be weakened, it cannot be completely killed.
As expected, if it becomes the monster of the ``King'', the magical power it wields is enormous.
There are some magics that cannot be killed.
Just like you can't kill an awakened magician, there are times when you can't kill magic.
(Also, I would like to see the hellfire magic... but that may not be possible.)
With the magic of Hell King Belorg, it would be possible to destroy the imperial capital without using the concept of hellfire magic. If anyone could resist it, it would only be the Secret Sword Saint Hyrein, but Belorg, with its hard scales, would be impervious to magical attacks. The strength of monsters whose bodies are built with magical power changes depending on the magical power they possess. Spirit monsters like Shu are an exception because they don't have a rigid structure, but Belorg, a dragon, has a structure called scales. Its structure has been strengthened with enormous magical power, making it impenetrable to slashes from weapons.
It would be different if you were to aim for areas without scales or the inside of the eyes or mouth, but there was no way Belorg would let you do that easily.
(I have to go back to Iris)
Shu took advantage of the commotion and disappeared.
◆◆◆
Around the time the Helllord Belorg was revived, Iris and Hawkeye also began to evacuate.
"This is dangerous."
"You look like Shu-san."
"That's a 'King' monster that is faithful to its instincts. A rational Shu-san is a rare person. According to the information I have gathered, the newest Scarlet King Sherry is also an instinctive monster..."
"That is right?"
“The Immortal King Zenon Life is relatively rational, but he is crazy in that he kills all living things that come close to him. How many idiots have been killed and transformed into immortals...”
“It’s scary.”
"It's very scary. The 'King' monster. Iris-san was lucky."
You can never touch the black flame.
If you touch the hellfire even once, death is certain. Iris and Hawk Eye were carefully avoiding it.
"Are you going to use teleportation to escape now? There's a limit to how much you can avoid."
“Your magic will also be burned.”
Iris sometimes uses a barrier to protect herself from hellfire. However, hellfire magic does not disappear until it burns the target, and can burn anything. Of course, it also applies to magic and magic.
Even if the hellfire burns out, it will not disappear and will continue to remain.
The more Belorg lets go, the more places he can run to disappear.
The imperial capital Aldar was about to be filled with black.
"It's difficult to choose a destination. We don't know where the Grim Reaper is."
“Are you fleeing to the Revolutionary Army Rebellion camp?”
“It would be best to flee to another country, but Iris-san won’t be satisfied with that.”
"I'll meet up with Shuu-san soon!"
"...I can't help it."
``Takame'' also seems to have become sweeter before I knew it.
Since Shu and Iris are not only their best customers, but also their greatest collaborators, ``Takame'' will make their wishes come true as much as possible.
(It's likely that the Grim Reaper will get angry if he finds out...but it's fine.)
``Takame'' took out a small magic tool from his pocket and activated it, hesitating.
The magic tool is small enough to fit in the palm of your hand, and resembles a circular compass. When activated, the needle moves and points to a certain point. And the needle was trembling little by little.
Iris asked.
"What is that?"
"It's a magic tool that can tell you where the Grim Reaper is. That person is the king's monster, so he has a unique magical power. It senses that and points you to it. As long as you know the direction and distance, , I can use my magic armor to move around. Now I can go to him.''
"Oh"
If Shu finds out about the existence of a magic tool that can detect her whereabouts at any time, she might be in a bad mood. In reality, he wasn't that narrow-minded, but from Hawkeye's point of view, Hades was a frightening being.
"It's a secret from 'Shinigami'-san, right?"
"I understand."
"Now let's move. Hold on to me."
"Yes"
An extremely large amount of hellfire rained down.
It is a magic that burns down and destroys a corner of the imperial capital.
But right before it falls. Iris and ``Hawk Eye'' disappeared from the scene due to teleportation. Immediately afterwards, the hellfire burns down the entire area, and the black flames of hell overrun it.
Civilians die instantly, and there are no corpses left.
The buildings also did not retain their original shape.
◆◆◆
An elderly man stands in the way.
In front of a black dragon that releases hellfire.
"I never thought I'd have to fight two 'kings' in one day."
This is probably the greatest misfortune in Hirein's life, the secret sword saint.
The ``King'' monster is an entity that can easily destroy a country, and is not an opponent that a single person can stand against.
“The power to strengthen the Great Empire of Sbarokia... I never thought it would turn out like that. Because of this kind of ending...”
There is no hope for reconstruction in the imperial capital, which is engulfed in cursed flames. This is because there is no way to extinguish the hellfire. If it were possible, it would have to be magic.
In other words, the only one who can subdue the Helllord Belorg and extinguish the Hellfire is the Hades King Arclight.
However, the secret sword saint Hyrein incurred the wrath of Hades. He cannot ask for cooperation or requests.
"Mysterious Sword Saint Heilein-dono... it's no longer time for us to be at war. We can't afford to be fighting the Revolutionary Army Rebellion."
"Yes. The Revolutionary Army Rebellion is also running away. What about the Dragon Staff?"
"It's just a walking stick. Besides..."
Hellfire flies.
Hirein, the Secret Sword Saint, pulled Adil's clothes while they were talking and evaded him. Adil has been a complete hindrance since a while ago. However, Hirein, the secret sword saint, cannot let him die. All other dragon staff holders have already been killed. Adil, who was by the side of the secret sword saint Hyrein, is the only one left alive.
In other words, General Adil is the only one who can command the Great Imperial Army.
(There are fewer places to escape to. Is this the end of the imperial capital?)
The hellfire never goes away.
In other words, the imperial capital, engulfed in hellfire, became the capital of death. It was transformed into a hell ruled by the Helllord Belorg. It is no longer a place where humans can live.
Hirein, the Secret Sword Saint, extends his magical sword and attempts to pierce Belorg's eyes. That is the only attack that can be fired while holding Adil.
However, Belorg doesn't even look at him.
The hellfire magic released casually burns the approaching sword and never lets it reach it.
(His Majesty the new emperor... already)
Hirein, the Secret Sword Saint, knows the hiding places of the new emperors, Stradi Mars, Crosaria, Belzeth, South, and Svalokia. It's an underground shelter that can be accessed through a hidden passageway in the castle and the Grand Duke's house. It is made in such a way that it will not break even if it is subjected to a large-scale attack by magical equipment or magic. However, magic is not expected.
Moreover, the hellfire magic is also burning down castles and the mansions of the Grand Duke's family.
You can't escape from underground with that.
In other words, the new emperor remains locked up. The Emperor is doomed to starve to death as hellfire magic that never disappears rages on the earth.
"General Adil. Are you ready to die and the destruction of the great empire?"
“It’s already done.”
Many of the aristocrats died in the recent ``moving corpse'' incident. There are no nobles who inherit even a small amount of blood from the Grand Duke's family. In other words, the legitimate successor to rule the Svalokian Empire was lost.
There is a possibility that someone completely unrelated could pretend to belong to the Grand Duke's family and become emperor.
However, I have no intention of serving such a tyrannical king. Hirein, the Secret Sword Saint, and Adil had similar opinions. Therefore, I even decided to die here.
