Chapter 8 (1/2)
ounder ⋅ Crow
Merea tried to change the topic in a hurry
But rather than changing the topic unnaturally, and to anger Flounder, which , soe the topic
But,
「I’ve got to tell the truth, I also beca to say Hero when talking about h to refrain fro it It’s hard to speak indifferently」
In the end even Flounder wound up being betrayed
Merea while feeling the unrewarding softness that ends up dulling his though, notices that Flounder is in the sa to talk about it to the end, and they decided to quietly get on this topic
「Flounder is a Deood look」
This androgynous good-looking man of delicate features is a Demon Lord
It’s quite a coine aperson to say it’s a Demon Lord
When Merea is suffering froe of a De to say tricky words
「After I was betrayed I was dee na Killed was ret because I wanted, if you wantyou to take revenge」
Flounder, as if he had decided that he will take the hate of the people, even though he did not deserve it, he went side by side with those words of hate
Yet Merea didn’t hear a word of regret fro that
「Then, what flounder reret」
「That regret I had has weathered The other regret my heart has is that I’s」
「If you reood?」
「There is no such thing At the saret had not weathered earlier It’s good that it happened You are a pride that we had in our lifetiret had weathered, if my eneone out of hand」
Although Merea thought that it does not appear to be that way, on the other hand, only a spirit body that was filled with regret could be seen in the Lindholm Spirit Mountain, so it could not be totally denied
The spirits were full of rationality, but they were like that only until the time the last of them is sed by the [Heavenly Sea of Souls]
— But for vessels of regret, I wonder if I got too involved
They were aware to sons of involvement
However, if you borrow the previous words of Flounder, the first thing is that Merea was born as a vessel to dispel the spirits of regret, so they should speak indifferently
「But-」
Suddenly , the thoughts of Merea about Flounder were cut abruptly
The eyes of Flounder had the same red color as Merea’s
Two pairs of red eyes stared at each other
「Instead, it sprouted a new regret」
「What is it?」
「I’et killed by the world of today That is what is keeping me here」
「…」
They have stopped being pulled
They have stopped being stuck in here
Flounder unleashed such words, probably because he already has been called to the [Heavenly Sea of Souls]
Merea Guessed that
The roots of regret that had become a spirit body were ready to resolve at Lindhol in the same place
But, at the last-minute,
— What should I do to stop pulling back the release of Flounder
What should I do
Hoill Flounder be relieved
「- That’s what I’ve heard froon Clautice, thus those who have been labeled as a Dens of decline」
Once Merea is no longer worried, Flounder continued talking
「decline…」
Merea had heard the story from Clautice
That the tied and the Demon lord were in decline, now he can clearly understand theand the reason for such a story
「Because much had to be done to become that way That way by I die, in the same way that decreased the Demon Lord as an incarnation of corruption, I think I’ and was the most hunted」
「Isn’t there a nation that does not follow the stereotypes of the power of the De?」
「There isn’t Because they are looking even at the possibility of the blood of the De probles To deter them into a frenzy because their means of escape are closed off, you can not be in a defenseless state, even if you are the Deive up on our own』 do you think that the suspicion and fear will go away? It’s hard to discard your power」
— Certainly, discarding your power in a state of being chased sound scary…
Maybe it would not be a positive thing to thoay the power
That way the state where you are trapped in the forces of the enemy and don’t knohats to come does not come I think so
Discard your weapons, to discard your power, Dissecting the body, it
「The De what to do, I wonder if they fled around in desperation while hesitating」
「The uess so」
Flounder shrugged, Merea then asked the question again
「De away…– I already don’t knohat a Demon Lord is anymore」
「I have said Not only them, but also you, have a potential to be chased in the same way as them」
「Yeah」
It coht
Flounder’s insight for the future is scary
Flounder that was able to foresee that 『Demon Lord』 had been drawn of the [Future Stone Fiunace], But that was because he was betrayed in the same way such as them, because I know that
「So, if you wait too long and that happens -」
The ne moment, Flounder uncommonly broke the silence and put a hand on each shoulder of Merea in a momentum, such as to approach
Then with force to the hand, Flounder attracted the shoulder and turned around the body of Merea to the front
In this state, Flounder said
「- You are to, please cooperate with the Demon Lords」
If you see only textually, I would be surprised I’m sure the other spirits would be the same
Cooperation with the Demon Lords
In particular, in the past, The spirits not only knoas the Demon Lord as the incarnation of corruption, Flounder ot what you’re saying』
But I was brought up in order to be a hero, but cooperating with the Demon Lords which is the worst enemy of the hero
But,
「They are not really a personification of evil, they siht in the traps of the word 『De for help -」
If such a person is a Demon Lord
「- I would be glad to lend a hand」
of course,
「In the sa so they will also try to help me」
But,
