The Demon King’s Seal Has Been Broken

28 – Empire being invaded [Brigade Commander Hazra] – 8

The road to the fortified city.

To be honest, I was almost certain by this point.

‘Haa… In the end, the worst had to happen.’

The closer I got to the fortified city, the more vividly I felt the ridiculous aura, I never knew about this aura.

Because I’ve experienced this aura in the past, closer than anyone else and longer than anyone else, I can’t help but notice it.

I never wanted to forget, I couldn’t forget. The owner of this terrible and terrifying demon must be the demon king I sealed away before.

‘In the end, that demon king was resurrected.’

Now that such a demon king has been resurrected, I can only sigh.

In the end, the development that I didn’t want so much, the development that I hoped would never happen.

Because that meant that the development had now come true…

It was a certain fact that there was no need to doubt that the demon king had been resurrected.

‘What the hell is the real imperial family thinking?’

It was devastating to see myself witnessing such a fact.

I never simply sealed the Demon King.

After all the hardships, I barely managed to seal it, and it was never easy to seal it.

But to come now and bring it back to life.

No matter how you think about it, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that this is the greatest troll of all time.

The world might be destroyed just by that troll act.

No, it wouldn’t be strange to say that it was almost destroyed.

The current situation was a crisis that cannot be expressed in words.

‘Let’s ask the emperor later.’

And the responsibility for this problem would unconditionally lie with the princess.

Even if there was another person who opened the seal herself, there was no way that she wasn’t involved in breaking that seal in the first place.

Not knowing was meaningless, and not knowing was a problem.

Because of this, I intend to listen to the princess’ appropriate answer regarding this situation in the future.

I have no intention of ever going over.

Depending on your answer…

‘I must protect the fortress city now.’

Well, of course, I don’t know if that will come later…

Anyway, I decided to think about that later.

Because that’s not what’s important now.

The most important thing now was the defender of the fortress city.

I was riding my horse like this now for him.

‘It shouldn’t have been too late. It’s a place that should never be breached.’

The fortress city called the shield of the empire, of course, as its name, the fortress city was a very important place.

As a very important city located on the road to the demon world, if this place is breached, the gate of hell will open.

The empire is in a position where it has to defend only one place, and in an instant, all cities are threatened by demons, and if that happens, the empire is strategically at a very disadvantage.

A place where you can effectively block the passage of demons, if that place is destroyed, the demons will come over to the Ussu Empire. Perhaps even the people of the Empire will not be able to live a safe life.

You never know when and where demons will suddenly pop out and attack them, so the fortress city was important.

Imperial shield, fortress city. If this place were to be pierced, it was certain that the empire that had lost its shield would literally perish.

In the process, of course, my family, friends, and acquaintances would all die, and I wouldn’t be able to survive if demons attacked from all sides.

So I hurriedly ran to the fortress city.

Please, I hope you avoid the worst.

‘I arrived on time.’

And as a result of arriving like that, fortunately, the worst was avoided.

The worst situation was when the fortress city was breached and demons were pouring out.

It didn’t get to the point where it was really irreversible.

I breathed a slight sigh of relief at him, but it was still too soon.

It’s just that we haven’t come to the atrocious situation yet, and the fact that the current situation is very unfavorable has not changed.

‘It’s a piece of shit…’

It’s not the worst, but it was the moment on the verge of the worst.

Terrified soldiers, as well as demons charging the castle wall with great vigor.

At this rate, the fortified city would have no choice but to be breached.

It was so obvious what would have happened if I had arrived five minutes later.

“I’m here.”

But, it was fine.

because i arrived

This was enough to do.

Commander of the 1st Corps of the Demon King’s Army, Hazra.

She was currently participating in the war as the commander of the 1st Corps of the Demon King’s Army fighting the Empire.

However, she wasn’t particularly nervous or anything like that.

No, it might be more appropriate for her to say that it was boring.

‘Haa… It looks so easy.’

It has been 800 years since she became the commander of the 1st Corps of the Demon King’s army as a faithful confidant of the Demon King.

During those 800 years, she and the demon king fought countless wars and overcame countless difficulties.

The number of destroyed worlds had already reached three digits, and the number of occupied cities was now uncountable.

For such a woman, the fortress city in front of her right now, that makes her feel very bored.

‘I have to occupy it quickly, and I must conquer this world quickly.’

Obviously, that fortified city was by no means a simple city.

It has good co-op and good defense. Also, the commander seemed to be excellent in his own way, and there were obviously signs of considerable effort.

If you look at it objectively, it was never a sloppy and easy defense.

However, in the end, there is such a thing as ‘class’.

As the commander of the 1st Corps of the Demon King’s Army, who had occupied countless cities, she thought that a city like that would be too easy, and it was actually easy.

I don’t know how much the demon soldiers were able to block it, but as soon as she stepped out, the barrier of the castle wall was smashed, and even the soldiers who ran away after seeing herself breaking the barrier.

When she stepped in, the balance of the war collapsed in an instant.

‘It’s over…’

It would not be an exaggeration to say that this city has already been occupied.

There was nothing more to see.

She turned around and waited for the Demon King’s army to take over.

By the way.

‘what?’

As if laughing at her heart, the soldiers who were running away started fighting again.

The barrier was broken, but the figure was not engulfed in fear at all…

No, on the contrary, it was the image of the soldiers exuding courage with even more hope.

‘The situation changed in an instant…?’

Such a dramatic change in a city that I thought was already occupied.

Hazra couldn’t help but panic.

Because this was nonsense.

So, I had to be sure.

Clearly someone is behind.

So, who the heck has turned the tide of the battle?

‘Is that the man?’

Hazra’s question did not last long.

It was visible in Hazra’s eyes at a glance.

The existence of a hero who is instantly dealing with demons on the battlefield.

The existence of a lantern that gives hope to everyone.

‘I see… You mean I defeated the Demon Lord?’

The demon king he served, the one who had never been defeated while destroying countless worlds.

To Hazra, the person who defeated the strongest demon king.

It must be that man who brought down the man to whom she swore allegiance.

‘Are you excited?’

So now, at this moment, she couldn’t help but heat up.

The corners of her mouth went up as she thought about how strong that man could really be.

Soon, her expression, which had been expressionless all along, was filled with excitement.

“hehehehe…”

Anticipation for the battle boiled over.

So I couldn’t stand it any longer.

Commander of the 1st Corps of the Demon King Army, Hazra.

She charged as it was, riding her black horse.

As the black horse ran, it gradually accelerated, and Hazra concentrated the demonic energy on the tip of the black spear.

A technique used to destroy the barriers of a fortress city.

I charged with the intention of completely annihilating that man with that technique.

Kwak!

Hazra’s charge was so successful.

“What are you?”

The sword and spear met, and the man sent a chilling glance at Hazrah.

While I was zealously beating the demon army, there was an entity running towards me with a terrifying energy.

A lancer on a black horse, she gave me a clear kill, charged at me, and my sword met her spear.

‘It was almost dangerous…’

When I saw that lancer, I had no choice but to intuit at a glance.

He was absolutely not an ordinary demon like other demons.

I couldn’t help but be too aware of the attack just now.

‘Hmm, maybe it’s an executive level?’

A tremendous attack that concentrates that demonic energy.

I was able to prevent that attack because I foresaw it.

I can’t even imagine what a terrible result it would have been if I hadn’t noticed, or had noticed it a little later.

I could have really died…

This demon in front of me right now was really quite strong.

“What are you?”

So I had no choice but to ask.

I had defeated all the demons called the Four Heavenly Kings in the past.

But now, the demons of the Four Heavenly Kings reappeared.

No, something seemed much stronger than the Four Heavenly Kings.

Should I say that I feel stronger than the Four Heavenly Kings and weaker than the Demon King I know?

It felt just like that.

“Hazra, the commander of the 1st Corps of the Demon King’s army. The Demon King’s faithful servant, and the one who was ordered to occupy this city.”

It was a demonic woman who kindly answered my questions.

Fortunately, he didn’t seem to have any intention of hiding anything.

The black short-haired demon woman kindly informed me. about who you are.

‘Was there a legion of demons?’

Hazra, the commander of the 1st Corps of the Demon King’s Army…?

I was a little puzzled by that explanation.

Suddenly, there was an army of demons, because I hadn’t even heard of it.

Well, could it be the demon lord’s hidden power?

Of course, it’s not impossible that the enemy lied to deceive me.

But it didn’t look like he was lying, so I just decided to believe it.

“Well, since I’ve been introduced myself. I should introduce myself too. My name is Lag.”

Anyway, the most important fact hasn’t changed.

The demons in front of me were the ones I had to defeat to protect the city.
