I’m the Demon King, but There Are Too Many Heroes

022. How can I bear this?

“·················ogue.”

Hillen opened his eyes.

dark and gloomy wet and dirty

I frowned at the unpleasant smell. The back of the neck is throbbing. Instinctively, as his hand covered it, a shuddering chain stopped his movement.

oh

It was then that Hillen recognized her situation more clearly. Limbs were bound and mana was bound.

He used to be a warrior, but now he was just a prisoner.

The last moment came to mind.

A woman who greeted her wearing an eye mask that could only be worn at a prom.

He introduced himself as a subordinate of the Demon King and a dark spirit magician, but how could he not know?

Platinum blonde hair, like the symbol of the Hilderan royal family.

The bizarre purple eyes that are not easily forgotten once you see them.

She was undoubtedly the Crown Princess of Hilderan, Hernan Hilderan. It was the goal he had to save.

‘Why a princess?’

I couldn’t understand.

The Demon King kidnaps the princess.

The hero fights the demon king to save the princess.

That’s the truth. It was ‘truth’.

Hillen was a warrior who had been to many towers, but this was the first time this had happened.

“Are you awake?”

“…Granada-sama.”

Hillen wasn’t the only guest in the prison. Granada, whose limbs were bound in a similar manner, opened her haggard eyes.

‘Shit.’

Why do I have to do this?

Granada grumbled inwardly.

His mission should have ended with Hillen’s capture. However, the Demon King threw him into prison with Hillen.

– No one has a softer mouth than a weakened human. Lock up together and dig something up.

‘How are you going to use the warrior?’

It’s Hillen Cargill. A warrior with a history of subjugating one demon king.

This time, it was relatively easy to catch it using the princess, but it was not an opponent who could guarantee the next.

As an elf, I didn’t mean to say it, but from the point of view of a demon king, if I keep it alive, it will surely come back.

‘I don’t think you’re going to accept it as a subordinate like me.’

Granada was absurd even thinking about it for herself in the absurdity of it.

The demon king’s subordinate is a hero.

‘But what was that dwarf?’

Why is the Dwarf making magic cannons in the Demon King’s Tower?

I think he was even a warrior.

“Are you okay?”

“My head is pounding. My body is immobile, my mana is completely silent.”

“So do I.”

“I remember until the Crown Princess appeared. But I can’t remember what happened.”

“That’s good for me too.”

“It’s difficult. everything.”

Hillen sighed. Everything was going smoothly until I got to Horton Walk, but why did this happen?

“This tower. There is something strange about the tower.”

Hillen started to make his name known in earnest by killing the demon king of lust, but he had climbed the tower several times before that.

And all the towers had something in common.

“There are monsters and traps on the first floor.”

“There are stronger monsters and traps on the second floor.”

“There are stronger monsters and traps on the third floor.”

That’s normal. It wasn’t just his experience. It was a law that had never been broken for hundreds of years after the Demon King came down.

But why this tower?

“On the first floor there was a magic cannon and a ballista.”

Everything except Hillen and Granada flew into that one room that no one expected.

“Why the hell is that thing in the tower?”

“…I’m fine too.”

“you’re right. There’s no way Granada would know. No one will know.”

If it was just that, I might have thought so. In the end, the magic grape is just a crisis, and if you catch the demon king and rescue the princess, it will be glorified as a memory of ‘that was then.’

However.

“On the first floor, then I left the surprise, and there was nothing on the second floor.”

“It was the same on the third floor. And going up to the 4th floor…”

wow-

A streak of fresh blood flowed from the corner of Hillen’s lips.

“Why the hell princess!”

Unbearable anger made his heart race.

“Why are you opposing me, who came to rescue me, and taking the side of the Demon King!”

Small complaints turned into big shouts.

“How did I get here!”

“How far did I go!”

“How did I try to make this brave run a success!”

The rage that poured out like a waterfall soon subsided.

heh heh

And then he started laughing like crazy.

“Do you know that?”

“···Yes? what…”

“Since we entered the tower, we have not met a single demon or demon.”

A twisted smile was drawn on his lips.

“To the Demon King’s Tower! Instead of what it should be, the princess is against the hero! What the hell is this damn tower?”

“···I understand.”

don’t understand Granada was also shocked to hear the process in real time, but I couldn’t even imagine the feelings of the person who suffered it directly.

“It is the Tower of the Demon King. And I am the owner of the tower.”

The answer came from outside the prison.

He stood through the dark lights of the prison.

Black eyes and black hair. It was infinitely similar to a human, but I felt a sense of intimidation that could not be regarded as a human being.

“Nice to meet you, Hillen Cargill.”

Berger laughed.

It was new. It was fun.

‘Healen Cargill.’

His shabby appearance was the first thing he had ever seen in his past and present life.

Originally, Hillen’s defeat was not planned.

He has a wider reputation than anyone else and has always been successful. Until the day when Berger was killed, he reigned as one of the best warriors.

But not now.

Berge couldn’t hide his smile.

It wasn’t just about catching a warrior. I broke the wings of the hero who should have soared higher.

This had never happened in the past. Destiny has been reversed.

So Berge was rarely excited. It was the first significant achievement. It was proof that his choice was not wrong.

Finally.

that you can change the future.

I was convinced that revenge would be successful.

“It’s you.”

Hillen rolled his eyes.

“It’s you, it’s you!”

“If you’re talking about the owner of this tower, as I said, I’m right.”

“pup. You fucking bastard who doesn’t even want to chew on it.”

“I’ve heard that Hillen Cargill is always polite, polite and respectful.”

“Gill. It looks backwards, but I like politeness. Why the hell did you make the tower like this?! If you are a demon king, dig a monster or trap like a demon king!”

“I dug a trap. There aren’t any monsters, but I’m pretty sure I missed you.”

“You weren’t like the Demon King at all, you bastard.”

Hillen scoffed.

“I am ruined because of you. It means that even if I die, there are not one or two debtors who will stir me up.”

“It’s ridiculous that you’re going to go bankrupt with just one failure. Isn’t his name Hillen Cargill?”

“Your demons don’t know. Money ghosts worse than demons. Do you know how much money I poured out while managing my network, and how much money I will have to pour out again in the future? Even now, thinking about the money I have to pay back makes my head ache.”

“I didn’t know that.”

It was a fact I didn’t know.

I know that humans are crazy about money and kill their people and their families for money, but I can’t believe that even the most successful warriors are bound by money.

I learned one thing.

And at that point, Berge came up with a possibility.

‘Maybe this guy too?’

heart is boiling

Still, the blood of the demon king and the memories before returning are all the warriors who are called heroes, shouting to kill them.

Unlike loggers. Unlike the lesser-than-a-hero, Hillen Cargill was a true warrior. If you fight head-on in a perfect state, you cannot guarantee victory by yourself right now.

Even so, he can endure it because it’s not the guys who killed him and ridiculed him.

Because there was precedent for loggers.

‘If you use a hero to destroy Arain.’

If you block the hero who mocked you as a hero.

Isn’t that the best scenario, the best revenge?

Just thinking about it made me shiver with the thrill of rushing in.

But Berge did not immediately bring up the story. Everything has its time.

The vigilance of the wounded beast doesn’t trust anyone except the parents, so we have to wait for it to get weaker.

“It looks like he hasn’t had his teeth pulled out yet.”

“It looks like you’re trying to negotiate with the kingdoms using me as an excuse, so why not just kill me?”

“It is up to me to decide. For now, it would be better to spend a little more time and kill the flag.”

Berger escaped the prison.

“Let’s escape.”

With his back completely gone, Hillen regained his former form.

“I’m sorry for the ugliness just now. I showed you what I couldn’t show you because of the situation. However, after pouring out one base, my mind cleared a little.”

“Oh, yes.”

Granada nodded blankly.

“Looking at the fact that you saved us, it doesn’t seem like you have any intention of killing us right now. They are probably trying to make a deal with the kingdoms by using me as a hostage, but I have to take advantage of that.”

“Is there a way?”

“The method came right out of the box.”

profit-

Mana-restricted enchanted shackles and handcuffs were forcibly ripped off by an ignorant force.

“··········!”

“An artifact like this is out of my complete control. While talking with the Demon King, I have been collecting mana little by little.”

“Oh My God.”

It was a real monster.

Hillen tore up all of Granada’s zucchini.

“But in my current state, I can’t face the Demon King, so I have to escape as undetected as possible.”

“What about the princess?”

“You crazy bitch, what do you know? You came to the rescue, but you trap the hero? Had there been evidence, I would have been able to rip Hilderan’s compensation money out. That’s a pity.”

Hillen, who grumbled a little, this time even crushed the iron bars.

“It is fortunate that the stupid demon king is so arrogant that he doesn’t even have a guard. Go quickly.”

“Yes Yes.”

‘What do we do?’

had to stop But Granada was not in a normal state. At first, I decided to follow him quietly and then take a chance.

shh-

Hillen carefully put her ear to the iron gate.

“At first, there is no sound. Could you please open the door? I will continue to listen.”

“Yes.”

Granada slowly opened the door.

“…Fuck.”

“You’re swearing. It would be interesting for humans to know your nature too.”

“Why again…?”

“You think I didn’t notice your work? Of course it’s great. I hope you’ll really tear it apart. It is Hillen Cargill.”

“Damn it!”

Hillen clenched his fists. But the attack was stopped without a hitch. A wicked hand clenched his fist and threw him away.

“Mr Granada!”

Hillen shouted as he rolled on the floor. With a desperate voice and strong will, Granada unknowingly kicked towards the Demon King.

Paak-

“Aww!”

In return, he bled and flew away. and saw

“Sorry, Granada! Please fight the demon king like an elf! I will take revenge!”

The hero who is escaping by turning his eyes that we used to be together.

“·················ogue.”

“This is new again.”

“Isn’t that a full chew?”

“A warrior who abandoned the dog and companion that bit him. It’s hard to decide.”

“…I just did my best to fulfill my mission. Wasn’t it the Demon King who told you to help the hero?”

“Don’t do that.”

“Aren’t you going after me?”

“It was so absurd that I forgot about it for a while.”

Berge, who had a disappointing smile, began to follow the tumultuous warrior.

* * *

Hillen quickly climbed the stairs. The emaciated body quickly ran out of breath, but there was no room for it.

‘Fortunately, I don’t see any other monsters.’

he was sure It was not there all the way to the 4th floor, and there was no common guard. I wondered if there were no demons at all in this Demon King’s Tower.

‘You must not be vigilant. It is a tower in which the princess enters the magic cannon. I don’t know if he’s hiding something else.’

Now, no matter what comes out, I will not be surprised. he was confident

‘Fortunately, the structure of the tower itself was not that different from other demon lords.’

The prison was underground. You can survive if you climb one floor and get out of the first floor full of broken debris.

“The elf should hold out as long as possible…!”

Although he would be terrified of betrayal, if he was a demon, it would be an elf to remove the crane. He is probably doing his duty faithfully.

“That’s why I like elves.”

Still, it wasn’t a lie to get revenge. I will definitely come back and pay for this humiliation and humiliation.

He opened the door to the first floor. There was a passenger there, where no one expected to be there.

“it’s you?”

short stature. bloated hands.

“A hero who went up to the 4th floor? The motherfucker who smashed my works?”

A dwarf standing in the center of the first floor murmured with his eyes full of original poison.

“The Demon King did that. The magic cannon wasn’t as cool as I thought, so it didn’t do its job. So, I’m going to put the reward on hold for a while.”

Awkward-

Power entered the hand of the dwarf holding the hammer.

“Because of you!”

“You can’t open the tower!”

The dwarf warrior grabbed the hammer and rushed in.

Hillen stared blankly at the scene. I couldn’t even breathe a sigh of relief.

I was confident that no matter what came out, I wouldn’t be surprised.

“Fuck, are you a hero now?”

How do you stand this?
