I’m Going to Destroy this Country

Blue light soared.

That light was so intense and brilliant that it changed the darkly settled night into sunlight.

The knights were entranced by the unfamiliar form of light. It felt like opening a path towards the future in the midst of despair.

So the Blue people were moved. They followed the God of Light, but had they ever seen such light at least once in their lives?

They earnestly sought god, but in the absence of god’s response, they disciplined their bodies even more harshly according to the scriptures, endured, and endured again.

But no matter how much it was a faith of patience, they were weak humans. Perhaps they really might have been abandoned by the gods, they encountered this light amidst despair and anxiety.

They closed their eyes tightly in relief that they were never wrong. A knight who lost his organs even shed tears.

“Ugh… Watching that light, I don’t even feel pain anymore…!”

“Thank god… Ugh!”

Of course, Shuri was startled by those words.

“Hey! What thank god! Come to your senses! That’s a sign of dying!”

“…No, I really don’t feel pain!”

“Uh… Me too.”

“Ah, if I just follow that light, it seems like there will be no more pain or anything…”

“Ah, it seems like grandma who passed away is waving her hand across the river beyond the light…”

“That’s the path to the underworld?!”

Shuri, who was using a healing technique, was flustered, but he was even more flustered seeing the peaceful-looking faces of the knights.

‘Even if the Blue is a faith of patience and is called perverts who enjoy pain, this is a bit…’

But Shuri soon realized the reason.

‘Come to think of it.’

This light was healing pain… No! It was healing wounds!

‘Could it be that it tears apart demons but has a healing effect on humans?’

But that made it rather strange. As much as the Blue’s divine techniques were specialized in attack, the healing side was weak compared to the White Faith.

‘At this level, it’s on par with the White Faith.’

Could it be the power of the vision?

No.

‘This must be the result of Isaac’s power mixing in.’

But doesn’t it take at least the Pope or the White Cardinal for such a miracle?

At the same time, the demon who lost both arms retreated with a groan.

“This is crazy! This is the vision!”

What was the Blue with the vision like in the past?

-The Blue is the holy fire of the Holy Empire. Its very existence is the light of salvation that destroys all approaching evil.

Blue flames soared up where the light touched. In pain from his body burning, the demon hastily fled towards Delos.

‘This is unexpected!’

Having watched the battle between the Saintess and the Skeleton King, he couldn’t not know the Blue’s vision. He realized that he was at a disadvantage in front of the Blue’s vision.

‘Didn’t the Blue lose the vision because of the Pope?’

As the surprised demon retreated, the relatively unharmed knights shouted hurriedly.

“Master! The demon is retreating!”

“Let’s quickly go to a safe zone in this gap!”

They were brave Blue knights. It was frustrating not to be able to pursue the demon, but right now, the safety of their masters was the top priority.

‘Of course, with this body, I’ll have to think about retirement now…’

The knights gritted their teeth.

They wanted to tear apart the enemy’s limbs and kill them out of resentment, but protecting their masters was their mission.

They were just grateful that their masters were unharmed.

“We’re fine, so hurry!”

“Don’t worry about us now, evacuate…”

“Lilai, take them and go.”

“What? What about you, Father?”

“I will chase that guy and bring back at least his head. Now that he has escaped from Delos, it’s a golden opportunity to deal with him. So take the knights and your nephews and return to Eshua…”

“Where are you going, you bastard!!”

…Huh?

Right before Elai stepped up, Isaac rushed out.

The surprised Lilai shouted urgently.

“Isaac! Where are you going!”

“Leave the kids’ organs and go, you fucker!”

…Wha-What? Leave what?

Isaac, who used high-speed steps, passed by them in an instant. Isaac had no intention of letting the demon get away.

‘Are you crazy, leaving the kids like that.’

Although the knights were unfortunately attacked first because he wasn’t used to activating the vision yet, Isaac knew that guy well.

.

It was magic that stole distant objects with a finger signal.

In other words, it meant they were thieves. That’s why Isaac first blew away his hands.

‘Well, originally, he couldn’t take things that quickly, but his skills have improved since I last saw him.’

Well, what’s important is that since he’s a thief, he must be keeping the stolen items.

What does that mean? It means the organs can be returned to their original state!

“You think I’ll let you turn the guys with a bright future into cripples!”

Whisper admired Isaac’s anger.

[Oh, Master. What’s with worrying about the priests all of a sudden…!]

‘I still need to exploit those paladin bastards for a long time, what retirement are you talking about!’

[Ah. If that’s the case, of course.]

Well, even if he says that, they were retainers who liked him and were loyal to the Blue. He couldn’t let their future be taken away.

‘And above all, do you know how powerful magic cores True Demons have?!’

It’s profitable to sell them and profitable to absorb them!

Moreover, the Blood Brothers?

‘Those guys aren’t combat-specialized demons, they’re thieves weak to light.’

They were guys that could be sufficiently dealt with even with the current Blue’s vision.

Moreover, they kidnapped the eldest son, no, Isaac’s parents? With this, he can take revenge and gain a foothold for support in the Blue.

‘Do you think I’ll miss this opportunity?!’

[…Wow, a real piece of shit.]

‘Shut up! These things are originally all about justification!’

If Noel gathered forces using the eldest son’s disappearance, Isaac can gather forces with the opposite justification.

And in fact, he was a bit concerned. Why wasn’t this body born in the Eshua mansion? Why did the parents leave the Eshua mansion and suffer at the hands of these guys?

Considering that the opponent is a thief, he might be able to find the location of the parents’ graves or their belongings.

‘Do you think I’ll miss this opportunity?!’

“I won’t let go of the knights’ and my parents’ enemies! (My gains)”

At the voice echoing in the forest, the knights inwardly touched their eyes.

‘Oh my god, to think of us like that.’

“He even cared about the parents on top of that…”

The family head also had a concerned look in his eyes. Sometimes when he looked at Isaac, he felt as if he had no human heart.

He had emotions of anger, but other feelings were immature, so he thought it was all because of the Skeleton King’s curse. That he forgot his emotions like the Skeleton King.

But could it be that he was actually missing his parents, just not showing it?

‘Yes. Even if his personality is rotten, he still has a human heart.’

With this much, it seems okay to give him the successor position without worrying.

The family head also hurriedly moved while casting a barrier technique.

Then, at that moment, Isaac, who was leading, stopped in front of the demon. The demon, who stopped after crossing the river and a long chase, glared at Isaac while grinding his teeth.

[It was you who followed, platinum hair!]

Isaac approached the demon.

“Give it back, my minions’ organs.”

Confirming that the Blue family head’s energy was not felt, the demon laughed in relief.

[The young Eshua has no sense of fear.]

The vision was dangerous, but it didn’t matter. He had already taken that into account and deliberately lured him to a place close to Delos.

‘A place overflowing with the Skeleton King’s magic power, making it difficult to use holy power. And there are traps too.’

As proof, the demon looked down at the ground. Among the dense trees, there were invisible magic lines on the floor.

‘Step on it. Wherever you step, your body will fly away.’

The demon provoked Isaac to come closer.

[Your parents had silver hair, so if I peel off your hair and weave it together to sell, it will fetch a high price… Kuk!]

The blue light of the vision tore off the demon’s neck. The eyes of Isaac, who swung his hand, shone coldly.

“If I crush your neck, you won’t be able to make a sound.”

“Kuuk… Kuhk!”

The demon looked at Isaac, who was getting closer and closer, in surprise. Why, he’s fine even with the Skeleton King’s malice?

No, that’s a problem before that.

‘He just passed through the trap barrier? How did he…’

“How did I notice the traps?”

[?!]

Did he read my mind?

The surprised demon looked at Isaac, but Isaac’s eyes curved into crescents.

“Because I can see them, you bastard.”

He can see them?

Those?

The 8th level magic?

But Isaac, who easily avoided all the traps and approached, grabbed the demon’s neck.

“Who do you think I am?”

Do you think this kind of prank will work in front of the Skeleton King?

The demon who met Isaac’s eyes felt as if his heart was dropping. The light in those red eyes felt the same as the pressure of the absolute monarch he had felt before.

But before he could even tremble in fear, Isaac asked:

“First, let me ask one thing.”

[?]

“Whose petty idea was it to put forward the fake Skeleton King?”

At those words, the demon’s pupils shook terribly. It was a different reaction from Ash’s.

When he asked Ash a similar question, her eyes said, ‘Fake? What the hell are you talking about?’, but this guy is different.

Yes, eyes that seemed to ask how he knew it was fake. In other words, it meant he was aware that it was a fake Skeleton King.

Seeing that through his eyes, Isaac felt disgusted.

[That…]

“Ah, forget it. You don’t have to answer. It’s a sufficient answer.”

The reason Isaac asked was because he really had a slight hope. That maybe even these guys were deceived by the fake Skeleton King.

But now it was certain.

The fake Skeleton King is the doing of the True Demons.

Well, they originally had a bad relationship, so there’s no need to be particularly resentful, but still. Of all things, because of that fake, the Eshua bastards are always saying they’ll smash his head, what to do, right? That’s a bit unfair.

“Give back the organs you stole from the kids.”

The demon glared at Isaac as if wronged.

[I can’t. In the first place, if you hadn’t made my arms like this… Kuk!]

Isaac stepped on the demon’s leg as if telling him to stop talking nonsense.

Crunch!

[Aaah!!]

And he whispered to him:

“Returning them is done just by wiggling this foot, you know. You already know that you just need to draw a circle with your foot, so where are you using your stupid brain?”

The demon froze.

It was a face filled with fear.

Because that method was something even other True Demons didn’t know, let alone the ability. Humans had even less way of knowing.

He couldn’t help but tremble.

[Y-You… Who are you! How do you…!]

No, that’s not what’s important now. If Isaac uses the vision at this close distance…!

The demon, who realized Isaac’s purpose, hurriedly said:

[The things I stole aren’t with me now. They’re with my younger brother!]

Yes, let’s buy time with this. And after returning to Delos and recharging power, let’s deal with the silver-haired ones again.

[Yes, if you let me find my younger brother…]

It was right then.

“Are you looking for this?”

[…?!]

A woman walked out of the forest with light steps.

The demon looked at the woman in surprise. The woman was walking with the demon’s younger brother in one hand.

Shabnak, who didn’t have a speck of dust on her, casually threw the bloodied demon.

Bang!

The demon, who flew like a shell, was deeply embedded into the ground.

Shabnak, who lightly threw a demon much larger than herself, bowed her head politely.

“I caught the one running away.”

Isaac smiled as if saying well done.

“Then there will be no problem returning them at all, right?”

…Damn it!
