NOVEL NEXT chapter 8
8 – The Little One
“…… Suck!”
There was no conversation.
With just a short shout, the golden demon king began to use the mana that was held in both hands.
Ugh!
One time, Mana let out a rough cry, and right after that.
Quaaagh!
With a roar as if something was about to explode, a golden wave rushed towards White.
“──.”
Ahead of a golden wave that seemed to sweep him away and annihilate its very existence in an instant.
The first expression White saw was just.
“…… hahahaha!”
It was a simple yet clear smile that was unmistakably clear.
Wow!
Instantly, a golden wave swept away White, who had a smile on his lips.
Coooooung…….
“… ….”
With the sound of one side of the tower collapsing powerlessly, White’s figure had disappeared from the spot where it was originally standing.
The golden demon king frowned at the corners of his eyes with a look of displeasure.
‘…… Did you finish it?’
He let out a light saliva and his eyes sharpened.
Although the magic he had just unleashed was a large-scale magic enough to wipe out a village in an instant.
…… It was hard to imagine that the unknown robe, which radiated mana equal to or greater than his own, would have been defeated by such magic.
That’s why I didn’t relax and looked straight at the wall where the golden demon king burst out.
“—It feels good.”
“…… !”
The very next moment, a young voice came from behind him.
Quaaa!
“…… What!”
At the violent turbulence of mana, the golden demon king widened his eyes and quickly put his hands together.
Soon, an improvised shield spread from both of his hands.
Wow!
“Kuaaa!”
At the magical bombardment that pierced the shield in an instant, the golden demon roared in agony.
*****
“… ….”
“… ….”
A golden demon king with his head weakly hanging.
Right in front of them, with some distance between them, White stood with an awe-inspiring attitude.
“Can you explain now, the golden demon king?”
“… ….”
Aiming at the golden demon king who kept his mouth shut and lowered his head so that his expression could not be seen.
With an eerie flash in the wall, White spoke out and heard a calm voice.
“For what purpose did you expel such a huge amount of mana? As a result, there is no way that a wizard like you would not know what kind of disaster would happen.”
Choo!
Above White’s hand, a blue window resembling his wall was created before he knew it.
Remedy.
And then, White aims the spear at the golden demon king.
His eyes narrowed narrowly, and he slowly began to let out a breath of life.
“…… If you won’t tell me, I’ll have to kill you and find out for myself.”
White muttered in a bloody voice with a calm intent to kill.
“… ….”
Even then, the golden demon king did not raise his head.
‘…… It’s strange.’
That appearance couldn’t help but raise a lot of doubts in White.
White recalled a questionable light in his eyes once more, and tightened his grip on his spear.
…… Even though the previous attack had put a lot of force into it, if it was at least enough to be hit by a blow of that level.
He probably didn’t even deserve to be called the ’12 Demon King’.
Naturally, White couldn’t help but doubt inwardly.
‘If it’s just wasting time and plotting something.’
…… Soon, a possibility flashed through his mind.
‘—I can’t leave it alone.’
Just after that.
Taat!
White kicked off the ground and began charging at supersonic speeds.
Aiming at the golden demon king, who had collapsed right in front of him, hardened to the point of reminiscent of a corpse.
Hook!
As he twisted his body once in the air, he slowly started pouring intense mana into the bluish-white spear that White had created.
Pang, Papa Pang!
The magic circle engraved on White’s spear resonated with his mana and came up with a geometric pattern.
Right after that, his eyes filled with a clear will shone fiercely.
‘…… If you can’t dig up information, when you have a chance—’
─ He ends his life.
White concentrated all his strength on the arm holding the spear.
…… Shouldn’t we even give the golden demon king room to decorate something?
You don’t know what they’ll do if you give them even a little bit of time.
The existence of the ’12 Devils’ was such a person.
Each one was no different from a strategic weapon, with tremendous power in its body.
Although it is evaluated as relatively low-ranking among them, the golden demon king was also clearly a part of it.
White was clearly aware of that fact.
“—Die, demon lord.”
That’s why, not even the slightest bit of carelessness.
With all his might, White threw a spear at the golden demon king.
“…… Flaw.”
“…… !”
At the same time, a shallow laugh sounded hollowly.
Awesome!
“This is…… !”
Something resembling a vine attacked White, emitting a brilliant golden light.
Suddenly!
First of all, it was White who reacted quickly and cut off the vines.
“…… Kut!”
There were too many of them.
Without even giving her time to buy time by stepping back, the golden vine began to bind White like a chain.
*****
“… ….”
Unique Magic.
The meaning was simply ingenious magic, but once you started digging into the concept in a little more detail, there was no end to it.
Inherent magic was what even a 1st-class wizard could create if he could create a magic circle or a spell.
In general, magic that has unique magic in the true sense, that is, magic that has ‘originality’.
It was only possessed by one of the greatest wizards on the continent.
“…… Under.”
White gritted his teeth and flinched once.
He tried with all his might to move his body, but the golden vine never let him go.
On the contrary, the more he moved, the more violently he pressed him.
“… ….”
First of all, giving up on escaping the bondage of this vine, White’s eyes brightened once with a calm expression.
…… Of course, it was predictable.
I wonder if those who are so good at magic that they are called the 12 Demon Kings don’t have something that can be called unique magic.
I had predicted that the golden demon king would surely have at least one or two trump tricks.
…… Yes, I was fully expecting it.
Timing, or momentary gap.
And a golden vine that possesses unbelievable binding power.
Those elements overlapped and overlapped to create this result.
“Khehehehe… ….”
In front of White, whose movement was restricted by the vines, the golden demon king slowly began to raise his massive body.
An eerie smile appeared on his lips before he knew it.
“Yes, I will admit it. An unknown boy.”
“… ….”
Looking straight ahead at White, whose eyes are still shining brightly, despite being completely restrained.
The golden demon raised the corner of his mouth once.
“You are strong. It wouldn’t be strange if the so-called golden demon king was treated as the same as me.”
That was a very surprising thing.
If known, it would have been an issue that would have shocked the entire continent and turned it upside down once.
That will never happen.
“That’s it.”
“… ….”
With a light smile on his face, the golden demon king started walking slowly.
Of course, his destination was the place where White was bound by the golden vine.
“You have no future. That brilliant future, which is sure to be brilliant, is now a future that has nothing to do with you.”
Kung.
“…… Are you wondering why?”
As he slammed down those heavy steps right in front of White, the golden demon raised his eyebrows in an unpleasant way.
The golden demon staring right in front of White, whose only inorganic eyes are shining.
“That’s right.”
Soon he opened his mouth again with an eerie smile.
“Because I will erase your future right here.”
“… ….”
“Kuk, kuk, kuk… ….”
With that said, the golden demon king slowly began to let out a low, gloomy laugh.
Soon, that shallow laugh was about to change its form into laughter.
“Keuk, kuhk. Ha ha…… !”
Ahahahahaha!
“Keuk, hahahahaha…… ?”
…… No, I tried to change the form.
At the gigantic laughter that erupted in an instant, the golden demon king involuntarily stopped the laughter.
“Keuk, kuh hahahaha. Ahahahahaha!”
“… ….”
At some point, anything that could be called a smile had been erased neatly from the golden demon king’s face.
He was supposed to burst into laughter, but White was bursting out instead.
“hahahahaha, ahahahaha!”
I just stared at White with a stunned expression as if he had let go of his reason halfway.
“…… The thing that went crazy—”
The golden demon king tried to mutter while tilting his head once more.
In that very moment.
“──.”
Dude.
It was around that time that White’s laughter stopped in an instant, in an extremely unnatural form.
“…… hahahaha.”
Instead of that, he had a faint smile on his lips.
White raised his head slowly.
“…… ?”
And then, the golden demon king faced White’s gaze head-on.
“…… !”
He flinched momentarily and stepped back.
‘…… What, the eyes.’
That was almost a reflex reaction.
Looking down at his legs, which had taken a step back without even realizing it, the golden demon swallowed a dry spit.
…… He is a boy who must be tied up.
That is not simply bound by a trivial rope, but a state of being bound by his own unique magic, the ‘golden vine’.
Even if such a boy raised his head for a moment, he would find no reason to shake himself.
I’m not sure if there’s anything wrong with it.
“… ….”
So the conclusion came out.
In that case, wouldn’t it be natural for a question to come out?
‘…… Why did I pull myself back?’
The golden demon king’s expression slowly began to harden.
And.
“…… Ha ha ha.”
Looking straight at the golden demon king, White smiled.
“…… You guy.”
At the boy’s laugh, as if he were laughing at himself, the golden demon king distorted his expression.
“Are you going to erase my ‘future’?”
But before he could vent his rage, White continued her words in a calm, still voice.
…… Above White’s blue eyes, a bright light of anger was slowly emerging.
That is literally impossible to compare with that of the golden demon king.
It was the light of anger that gave the impression that an active volcano was about to explode.
“Do you dare to talk about ‘time’ on a topic that is at the very end of the 12 demon lords?”
White twisted her mouth and let out a harsh voice.
“—Know your subject. An insignificant bastard.”
“…… !”
At that blatant insult, the golden demon king widened his eyes.
“…… It looks like you really want to die.”
However, he calmly calms down his anger.
Ugh-
The golden demon king began to slowly raise mana.
“If you really want to die. That wish, let me grant it.”
Not losing to him, White also put a bloody smile on his lips.
“If you can, do it. Yes, if only you could bring me to the true meaning of death with that trivial magic.”
“… ….”
There was no further conversation.
The golden demon king took a rough step forward with anger.
To fully capture such a golden demon king in his two eyes.
As for White, those two eyes began to flash with a clear intent to kill.
