The Adventure Story of the Devil, the Maid, and the Hero

In the battle thousands of years ago, countless lives could only reluctantly usher in the premature end that was not dominated by their own will.

I don't know how many homelands have been turned into ruins, and how many glory have finally become the glory of the past.

That was, a real catastrophe.

Until the sword of the first brave man, everything turned into the dust of history.

The dust has settled, but the world has already been riddled with holes and fragments.

Inselt—the continent under his feet is just one of the fragments.

In the incomplete world, distortions piled up continuously.Including a few advanced races that were already in small numbers, dozens of races were on the verge of extinction.The demons who were defeated in the catastrophe battle can no longer produce a new demon king.

At this rate, it won't take long for the world to come to an end.

Therefore, the hidden sages used secret methods to establish a new world rule to make up for the incompleteness of the world.Because of this, its own existence is rejected by the world, and it does not know what to do in the end.

The rule is - "Contract Demon King".

Agreeing to the contract means bearing distortions and accepting the fate of being conquered by the brave in the end.

When the Moon of Light arrives, the announcement of the Demon King's arrival is a notification that the deadline has come.

And those people in Bai Ye are actually leading the situation secretly in order to ensure that the Demon King will be defeated smoothly - to ensure that the world will not go to perish.

Although there was always a little bit of luck, Tifa, as the contract demon king, actually didn't seriously hold on to the hope of escaping her fate.

What's more, if the world is ushered in destruction because of this, it will be meaningless.

"—that's about all I can say."

After finishing speaking, the Demon King who looked like a brave man gracefully picked up the teacup and began to drink water.

"Luna, I've never heard of this legend before."

Iluna bit her fingers a bit tangled, and said in a vague voice.

"Although I understand it in general," April's pale golden eyes with a little doubt reflected the figure of a girl with light brown long hair drinking tea, "but why did you accept this kind of contract?" Woolen cloth?"

Putting down the teacup, Tifa was only silent for a brief moment, and then smiled firmly and lightly:

"To be born in this world, to exist here."

——In order to meet you.

She didn't say the last sentence, but silently engraved it in her heart.

Then she said with her usual calm attitude:

"I've been hiding it from you for so long, sorry."

Giulia looked at Tifa quietly, and there was only one thing she cared about at the moment, so she asked seriously:

"So, from the very beginning... Did you not seriously hope to be able to rewrite this fate?"

"It's not that I don't have the fluke mentality of wanting to escape this fate, but I don't have the determination to change everything even if I give up everything." Tifa looked at the person in front of him, as if seeing another person in the mirror. Oneself, with a wry smile, the true meaning that was originally hidden was revealed inadvertently, "After all, if you don't have excessive hopes at the beginning, then you won't be too sad when you finally meet your routine fate."

"That kind of thing..."

The man in the mirror with black hair and black eyes clenched his lips.

"...Really, it makes people angry." Catherine, who had been frowning at the beginning, stood up unbearably, with a bit of inexplicable anger in her voice, "If it's the devil, show me the appearance of the devil come."

She looked directly at the clear pupils of the brown-haired girl, and said in a low tone:

"I have always been, including this time, with the determination to complete the task alive no matter what."

"People who want to live no matter what and those who just have nostalgia for life, if there is only one who can survive, it is definitely the former. I have always believed so! A half-conscious guy like you, It is impossible to win!"

"...Maybe you're right."

The brown-haired demon king was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly.

"Then don't act like you don't care about anything, you want to live! If you want to live that much, then no matter if it's me or anyone else, as long as you stand in front of you, you can move forward even if you kill me!" Catherine Taking a deep breath, his voice became low, "Me too, if you will destroy the world, then in order to prevent this, I will kill you too, absolutely."

After finishing speaking, she turned and left the hall without looking back.

"Is it okay to leave it alone?"

Feeling that her sleeves were tightly clenched by her childhood sweetheart, April turned her head to Iluna and asked.

"Oh, it looks like she said it really angry." Iluna hugged her head a little nervously, "After all, unlike Luna, who is opportunistic and lazy, Xiaokai is a hard worker through and through."

"Even Luna has heard of it before, 'lucky follower' or something, someone whose luck is always almost a pity, even though it must be a very young person who can become the deputy leader at such a young age." Working hard—the above are the original words of the idiot brother." Iluna blinked, "So, you can't just leave it alone."

She waved her hand and left the hall too.

"Even if you want to kill others, do you have to... live?" Tifa murmured softly towards the direction the two left, with a hint of imperceptible envy in her tone, "That kind of thing... I can't do it Here we go."

It is precisely because the desire to live is so real that it is even more unacceptable to deprive others of their lives.

Knowing the uneasiness of being alone and the sadness of being at a loss, he couldn't let go of the person with the same expression right in front of him.

So, at that time, she reached out to Yulia.

Because they are all—the same.

"That, Tifa?"

The girl with black hair and black eyes called softly.

The brown-haired demon king came back to his senses, and then noticed that April and Fuono had disappeared when she was wandering, so she looked up at Giulia and was about to speak when she heard The person in front of him said again:

"Now, I am the Demon King, right?"

"Ugh?"

Tifa was stunned.

"Now, it's in the Demon King's Fort, right?" The girl with black hair and black eyes continued, "I can feel the connection of the familiar, and it seems that the dark attribute magic can also be used."

"...But," Tifa settled her mind and said to her, "I can still do what you said now."

"That's right." Giulia smiled lightly, and Tifa suddenly had the illusion that she saw herself, "So, what should we do with the current situation?"

The author has something to say:

Timon, suddenly wanted to work harder.

I don’t know how long this enthusiasm can last meow~
