It's all black.
Simone sighed as she looked around the view of Rydel, the capital of the Luan Empire for the first time in a long while.
The situation right before the Demon King's resurrection is vividly described in the original work, so she tried to imagine what it would be like.
But when Simone actually witnessed the bizarre scenery she had seen in the book with her own eyes, she was so frightened that all her previous resolve seemed to fade away.
Rain that was so heavy it was hard to breathe and dark clouds covered the sky.
The surrounding grass and trees were all dead.
And the toxins that pollute the air and the countless dead manas that are being sucked into the lake at this very moment.
If it weren't for the wizards' magic, some of the party would have collapsed as soon as they got off the carriage.
But even in this disastrous scene, there was something else that shocked them the most.
“Is this... possible? Is it possible...”
Bianchi grabbed Orkan's cloak without realizing it. However, Orkan was speechless and just stared blankly at the scene before his eyes.
Simone was the same.
Bam-
The air was twisting, making a sound she had never heard before.
It sounded like the sound of glass cracking, or maybe it was a sound from a distant universe that Simone didn't know about.
The lake, the vast fields, and the sky before her eyes were broken, split, and dislocated again.
Also, the scenery seen through the broken pieces seemed to flow irregularly, either slow or fast as if each time was passing in a different time.
Who could not be afraid of such a bizarre scene, with so many curses cast by Simone entangled and writhing?
"I..."
Simone started to say something, then closed her mouth.
She felt like if she spoke, her fear would be completely revealed.
Everything she sees is nonsense. Can this simply be expressed as 'space-time being distorted'?
Doesn't it seem like it was made by taking pieces from different worlds and putting them together?
'Adversary'
“How do I get in here...”
In the end, Simone had no choice but to admit that she had let her guard down.
Even though she prepared and made up her mind like that, she still thought of the Demon King as a weaker being than Anasis.
The unexpected appearance of Anasis dimmed the presence, but the original final boss of this novel was the Demon King.
The Demon King slaughtered the entire continent after his resurrection and was only able to be captured after all the countries of the continent, including Abel and his group, joined forces.
It can never be an easy opponent.
If the Demon King's resurrection was this much of a disaster, Anasis would probably have risked her life to absorb his power.
It was a moment when Simone immediately understood the words of the God of Death that if she absorbed the Demon King's power, she would no longer be human.
“What... should I do?”
Orkan asked with a worried voice.
“It’s a more dangerous situation than I thought. I’ve only seen it in records, but now that I’ve seen it with my own eyes... I think it’s dangerous to rush into battle like this.”
It seemed as if he wanted to turn around and head towards the imperial palace.
Simone nodded obediently.
“That’s right.”
As Orkan said, there is no answer to this number of people.
There are hundreds of soldiers sent here from various countries, including the Luan Empire, but if the Demon King were to resurrect, they would all be annihilated with a snap of his fingers.
None of them here have ever encountered the Demon King.
If they try, they will only know it through records in old books.
You cannot gauge how fearsome and terrifying the Demon King is without seeing this sight with your own eyes, so you must inform the Emperor of the severity of the local situation and prepare more firmly and aggressively.
“But I can’t leave because I don’t know when the Demon King will rise again. Please tell Louis to relay the situation through the communication port and to provide more soldiers and weapons. Ask for cooperation from all over the continent and tell him to completely open the teleport in Rydel Square so that the soldiers of each country can quickly come over via teleport.”
“...”
Orkan, who was pulling out the communication port according to her instructions, looked at Simone with a start. Simone continued speaking mechanically.
“We don’t need to send more wizards, as this number is enough. The Demon King absorbs mana. Wizards won’t be of much help.”
“...How.”
How do you know so much? Orkan was suspicious as he watched Simone speak as if she had experienced a battle with the Demon King.
But soon he put his curiosity aside and followed Simone's instructions. For now, his priority was to convey her words to the Crown Prince.
'I just followed the instructions given by Louis and Abel in the novel.'
In the novel, it was an order given after they realized the seriousness of the situation after the Demon King's resurrection.
Because the instructions were given too late, all the wizards who were supposed to open the teleports died, which caused considerable difficulty in securing soldiers, and a huge number of people died in the early stages.
And they were all absorbed by the Demon King, further increasing his power.
'It was the main cause of the slaughter of the entire continent.'
From the beginning, they must prevent situations where troops decrease or the Demon King's power increases.
Simone checked the Orkan connecting the communication port and then immediately tapped Abel on the shoulder.
Abel's face was still frozen in surprise.
"Abel!"
Simone called his name loudly.
Abel looked at Simone with wide eyes in surprise.
“Why, why...”
“Wake up. You can’t be doing that.”
You are the most important person here.
Only Abel can kill the Demon King.
It's not just that Abel is the main character of this novel, but his skills, qualities, and above all, his obsession with extinguishing disaster are unparalleled.
A person who fearlessly rushes to the Demon King and spares no expense in protecting those precious to him as if he were born to defeat the Demon King.
Also, the only person with that level of skill is Abel.
This is where he had to prove his worth as a sword master.
Of course, the time of the Demon King's resurrection is much earlier than in the novel.
Because of Anasis's foolish actions, Abel ended up fighting the Demon King without gaining the necessary experience, unlike in the novel.
As a sword master, he is not lacking in skill.
However, Abel has yet to meet the dragon tribe that will be his greatest support in the battle against the Demon King, nor has he yet met the dwarves that will create the sword that will become his soul mate.
Also, unlike the novel, the number of countries that Abel helped is still small, and the number of countries willing to rush to help him is also significantly small.
But Simone can take care of all these things.
Simone, who died in the original, is alive and has become much stronger than in the original.
While resting, she constantly read books, learned theories, and practiced techniques to prepare for battle.
Even if it can't do as much as a thousand soldiers, it can do as much as a thousand knights, and even if it can't directly be the weapon like the dwarf's sword, she can support him from behind.
Simone had no intention of fighting the Demon King, but what could she do?
It's a situation where she has to fight to survive.
It is a situation that can only be protected through fighting.
The only thing that is bothering her is not their skills, but Abel and his party's lack of experience...
The Demon King whose mana is so heavy that even space and time are distorted.
She is extremely nervous because he has no experience dealing with a villain of a similar level, let alone a Demon King.
The problem is that Abel, who should have drawn his sword and rushed in as soon as he sensed danger, is only watching the distorted space-time from afar.
You might be thinking that if you enter that space you've never seen before, your limbs might get twisted as well.
'Then I guess I should just relax a bit.'
Not just Abel, but everyone here.
Simone took a deep breath and walked slowly towards the lake.
“Orkan, while you’re at it, tell Louis to ask for the Adventurer’s Guild’s cooperation. I need some unmanned personnel to follow my orders.”
“Yes... Where are you going, Simone?”
At Orkan's panicked shout, the group and the soldiers who had been waiting tensely in thought all turned their heads.
Then everyone gasped in surprise.
“Simone! Hey! What are you doing...!”
“That guy... yes, a necromancer?”
“Hero?”
A girl with black hair and red eyes walks toward the distorted space-time without a single moment of hesitation.
A brief moment of silence.
And after a while, Abel started to run towards Simone in a panic.
The surrounding soldiers also tried to stop her, shouting, "Hero, you can't do that," and "It's dangerous."
But Simone paid no attention and raised her hand to stop the soldiers' movements.
It was fortunate at times like this that she was known as a hero who was close to the Crown Prince (there were even strange rumors of an affair).
Even though they are soldiers, most of them are probably lower-class nobles rather than commoners, so they step aside with just a gesture.
“Hey! I told you it’s dangerous. If you’re going to go, let’s go together!”
Abel hurriedly grabbed Simone's arm, but Simone gently pushed his hand away again, smiled briefly, and started walking again.
“Don’t be nervous. Draw your sword and wait. I’ll bring Anasis out.”
Abel flinched and stopped moving, and Simone continued walking.
It's really great to know the original.
Because you can find out for free that that incredibly twisted space-time isn't actually that dangerous.
Simone entered the space-time distortion with ease, and the voices of the shocked group could be heard, but as soon as she entered, they were cut off and nothing could be heard.
Is this what it feels like to be in the eye of the storm?
The lake before her eyes was calm and quiet, and the fields were still and untouched by wind. Of course, everything had rotted and withered.
Simone pursed her lips and looked out at the lake before turning to the red tree where her curse was intertwined.
Simone sighed as she looked around the view of Rydel, the capital of the Luan Empire for the first time in a long while.
