The Sub-Heroine’s Butler Is a Vicious Bastard

101. The Demon King (1)

“It’s not here.”

A cold wind blew and brushed the old man’s hair.

A large old man who didn’t even sweat.

He clicked the joints of his arms and legs and scanned his surroundings.

“Ugh… “

“Wow, crazy… “

The old man is located in front of the inn where the lower class students stayed.

All the students who were drunk were covered in blood and crawling on the floor.

The old man clicked his tongue when he saw that.

“Tsk, there’s nothing but chaff. Still, I was looking forward to it since they said he was a promising player.”

The old man muttered as he shook his bloody fist.

As he said, the lower class students literally fell like leaves in an autumn wind.

It was natural since he was called the Devil King’s ‘right arm’ and classified as the strongest fighter.

I wasn’t in 100% condition to face such a huge being.

It was late at night and he couldn’t sleep well and was drinking, never thinking about the possibility of being invaded.

It really was a situation where he was met in a child-like state.

Of course, except for one woman.

“Yes… It’s not over… “

The only samurai woman from the East who had no skin on her entire body was standing alone.

For some reason, her left arm was limp, her legs she was shaking, and the sword she was holding in her right hand she was shaking constantly.

She… The look in Torino Koyono’s eyes showed no signs of discouragement.

Looking at that, one corner of Noh’s mouth twitched.

“Okay, now that I see that, I can finally remember.”

“What… “

“Did you say Heylin City? “She had business there.”

“!”

Koyono’s deeply sunken eyes trembled slightly.

I was skeptical because it was a memory from when I was young, but if the being in front of me was really ‘that demon’.

Koyono glared at the old man as he adjusted his grip, which was slippery with his blood, and-

“I killed the daughter of the monarch there by order of the Demon King. Ah, that bitch’s cry was so clear and transparent… I still remember it. Haha!”

An old man waving his tongue and smiling.

The incident that Koyono had to protect, but he was unable to protect, still remains like a lump in his heart his his his …

She could not stand to see her words and actions her her her trampling on the honor of her master’s daughter her her her her.

“aah!”

Koyono staggered and rushed in.

Every bone in her body her her her twisted and her muscles her she screamed, but

Koyono used her anger as fuel to force herself to move her body and reach the old man-

“You cannot defeat me. “It would be better to just run away like last time.”

“!”

Koyono was hit by a kick that came out of nowhere.

She was thrown into the wall of the inn at an invisible speed.

The old man muttered, leaving behind her billowing mist.

“I’ve got all the information, so let’s go. To catch a guy named Schmitz.”

The old man, who had bent his knees for a moment, kicked the ground and flew away.

A large old man who disappeared with a weak earthquake.

There was only moaning and the scent of blood.

“Everyone focus! It’s a real situation. Lower class students in the next village were attacked by demons.”

We are in front of the door of the inn where intermediate level students stay.

Ryan entered the inn by breaking down the door and quickly gathered the intermediate students.

Ryan declared to us who quickly armed and lined up.

“The attacker was an unidentified high-ranking demon. It is said that he is heading straight to this village now. As this is an emergency situation, stay alert-“

“Ugh! I want to run away!”

“…Hey! Where are you going!”

One of the students lined up suddenly left the line.

I remember him as a student who was often evaluated as being timid.

While Ryan was embarrassed, the incident got worse.

“I don’t want to die either… !”

“I’m still a freshman… “How are we supposed to step forward?”

“I am the legitimate son of the Rempald family, and for the sake of the family’s succession… “

In front of the inn, which suddenly became chaos, various situations such as escape, panic, and fear occurred.

A situation where nearly half of the students lost power in an instant.

The vitality on Ryan’s face soared for a moment, but it quickly faded.

‘This is not the superiors and subordinates on the battlefield.’

I could understand Ryan’s concerns

If she were a commander and we were soldiers, she would have sought hierarchy even by killing one person as an example.

However, we only had a priestly relationship between a teacher and a student, not a submissive relationship between a superior and a subordinate.

Therefore, Ryan had no reason to forcefully drag the students away.

“…Sorry. The student’s life should have been prioritized. Everyone follow me. All students retreat.”

“Professor Ryan… !”

“Everyone gather together! “I’m going to run away and leave this damn town behind.”

Students gathered like bees at Ryan’s words.

The students sighed with relief, saying that they had finally survived

Ryan’s face his, standing in the center of the crowd, did not look good

“Schmitz, let’s follow Professor Ryan for now.”

I felt someone next to me grabbing my sleeve.

It was Arlot, standing with a cane.

Next to them were Hannah and Evan, ready for battle.

‘Okay, let’s follow Ryan first.’

There was nothing I could do.

There was an event where a group of monsters, including high-ranking demons, attacked,

It was the first episode where a demon of a different rank came in and completely destroyed everyone from the lower level to the intermediate level.

“First of all, it would be a good idea to receive guidance from Professor Ryan.”

“That’s a good idea, Mr. Schmitz. First of all, we are students.”

“Yes, let’s go. If this continues, it will be late.”

Ryan and the students were already moving around.

Was it the result of the panicked students urging me on, or was it just my thinking?

In any case, it was time to move.

The moment he took his first step towards Ryan,

Suddenly, something heavy fell from the sky.

Kwaang-!

It flew several meters away with a deafening explosion.

After rolling on the ground a few times, I finally got up.

A huge purple figure came into view in the dust.

‘…Surely he is the devil’s right hand man?’

The face of an old man with white hair and wrinkles, and a huge purple figure that looks bigger than the Northern Grand Duke.

I don’t remember the name in detail, but I remember it appearing as a mid-boss in the Demon King’s Castle episode.

There is only one thing that is certain.

… This guy was a monster that our current party could not deal with at all.

“Sch, Schmitz… “Is that person in front of me a demon?”

Fortunately, all the party members were near me.

Arlot, Hannah, and even Evan barely came to their senses.

I took one step forward from the party’s formation ready for battle.

“What is the devil’s right hand man doing here?”

“Blonde hair and golden eyes… And this strong scent…!”

The guy who was looking around boredly caught his gaze on me.

“Waltz Schmitz, is that your name?”

“…!”

The large purple figure closed the distance in an instant.

“It’s coming!”

“!”

Evan and I ran forward and formed a vanguard.

I don’t know why, but this guy recognized my name and ran towards me.

From what I remember, the Demon King’s right-hand man was a complete martial artist.

‘A man who climbed up to the seat next to the devil with only his fists.’

Although he is usually a weak, ugly, and unsightly man with many wrinkles,

He was able to use his magic to bring his body closer to perfection.

His strategy in the game was to use time attack until his magic power was used up.

However, our party did not have the skills to attack him.

“It’s boring.”

“…!”

3 light attacks in succession.

Evan’s sword broke in one hit,

His leg was broken in two blows,

With the last three hits, he flew through the air and had to roll on the ground for a long time.

It was truly an overwhelming difference.

‘It’s natural that he was someone I should have met two years from now.’

It was not long after the second semester of the first year began,

The protagonist and his party finally invade the Demon King’s Castle in the second semester of their third year at the earliest.

Among them, he was a mid-boss, so dealing with him now was suicidal.

“Damn it!”

Even though my mind decided there was no hope, my body moved quickly.

I tried to attract attention by throwing a dagger imprinted with flame, but

I didn’t stop it at all as it didn’t cause much harm to him.

“It will end anyway if I just take you.”

“Anyone wants!”

An old man approaches me and stretches out his vicious hand.

However, thanks to Hannah’s shield his, the hand his was blocked in the middle,

I was able to quickly sharpen my dagger at close range and escape the scene.

“Hmm, annoying.”

“…! Hanna, avoid it!”

An old man shaking like an afterimage.

It was one of his techniques that instantly accelerates and neutralizes the rearguard.

I immediately shouted at Hannah and urged her to avoid her, but-

“It’s late.”

“aak!”

The opponents are demons whose intelligence is not much different from that of humans.

At the touch of the old man that appeared in an instant, Hannah flew to her side like a leaf in the autumn wind.

What remained of her was Arlot, who remained by her side.

“No!”

“Oh.”

Immediately using Shadow Step, I appeared behind Arlot and grabbed his arm.

The attack that was aimed at Arlot was received with his body.

Thanks to this, my body is crying and internal organs and blood are leaking out of my mouth…

“Princess, now is the time! Magic… !”

“Schmitz… “

Magical power gathered in Arlot’s staff.

Various magic circles that appear and are erased in the air.

That meant she was deploying ‘high level magic’.

“Oh my, is this high-level magic? The young guy… !”

“Miss!”

The embarrassed old man aimed at Arlot with his other arm.

The ice-type high-level magic used by Arlot was an attack that worked well even in the late stages.

If you hit it squarely, it could cause quite a bit of damage.

But no magic came.

“…I can’t do it.”

“Miss… ?”

“How can I use magic when I have Schmitz… “I am… ” Sorry… “

Arlot said and dropped her staff.

I was hesitant to use magic because I was holding on to his arm.

Haha! Weak kites.”

The old man who was about to attack Arlot suddenly bent back and laughed maniacally.

I was glad that he did not attack Arlot,

Soon my body rose straight into the air.

He kicked off the ground while carrying me.

“I need to run away before the demon of war comes. Hold on tight.”

“Keuuuuu… !”

In the distance, I saw Ryan running towards me, his whole body his spewing flames.

But the speed at which he was moving away was much faster than the speed at which she was running.

Finally, my vision became blurred.
