The Hero’s Brother Is Bound To Be Depressed

294 – Kormo

A woman with a pierced head lifted her clothes to reveal her pregnant belly. Suddenly, flesh was pushed out from the large protruding belly, and the shape of a small face appeared. Like a child pressing his face against the window of a zoo, the baby’s face was close to me in the womb, as if he was looking into me.

“You’re Ross, but you’re not the Ross I knew?”

Although we didn’t make direct eye contact, I felt a terrifying chill on my skin. I turned completely and materialized the Spear of Shadow in my hand. The other person instantly realized that I was a different Ross. Although it was a baby in the womb, it was someone you should not let down your guard against. I tensed my muscles and glared at the woman’s stomach so that I could stab the spear at any moment.

“Who are you?”

At my question, the woman’s stomach trembles like a wave. I could feel the baby in my stomach smiling. Just looking at it made me feel disgusted, as if there was a snake crawling on my skin.

“Guess who I am.”

Is this an intention to evaluate something? It was clear that the other person had no intention of revealing his identity easily. In that case, you can only guess what you want. The other person knows that I am Ross. If you also know that I am different from the deceased Ross, it is surprisingly easy to narrow down his identity.

Try using the elimination method. The church’s advantage is creating corpses, but it does not use magic to manipulate corpses. The cult knows Ross’s face, but they won’t know that I am a different Ross. Then there is only one answer left. An opponent whose appearance like that is not against probability.

“… “You are the devil.”

This world’s Ross fell prey to the devil’s temptation and sold his soul. It is only natural that the devil who owns that soul recognizes me. He was a demon king who was interested in a being similar to the soul he possessed and came to see me.

“Wow, I never thought I’d actually get it right… “You’re definitely different from the idiot I used to know, aren’t you?”

The woman’s stomach twitched loudly, as if surprised that I had discovered her identity. I could feel the palm of my hand holding the spear becoming damp with sweat as it looked as if it would burst through the skin of my stomach at any moment. Even though I know that the Demon King cannot attack me.

“… “Is there a reason you came to see me?”

In order to be able to counterattack and retreat at any time, we recognized the spatial coordinates while pretending to be alert to our surroundings.

“Because somehow the soul I possessed was felt from the outside. I almost got a little angry, wondering if there had been a thief in the Demon King’s Castle. I absolutely hate having things taken away from me. Should I say he is a possessive demon lord?”

The sight of the Demon King waving his boat with a playful voice was not funny at all. Although I did not display indomitable courage, I assessed the situation calmly without being swayed by emotions. Even if the Demon King had ownership over Ross’ soul, it would not be binding on me. Even though they are the same soul, Ross’s soul and Jinxian’s soul are mixed together.

If the opponent was a demon lord, it was easy to guess the identity of the woman I killed. It is obvious that he is just like the Sixth Prince. A scum that follows the devil despite being human. He must be a follower of the devil. I twisted one corner of my mouth as if I was laughing.

“… “Did the person called the Demon King just live on the body of a follower?”

He was not someone who could easily fall for this level of provocation. A sound as if the woman’s stomach was being pounded from the inside, like flesh being pounded, rang out in the alley.

“That’s right, due to restrictions, all I can do is look at you guys like this.”

“Should I at least apologize for ending the sightseeing on my own?”

“are you okay. Such unexpected encounters are always welcome. “There’s nothing that makes you want to commit suicide more than a boring daily life, right?”

Now that I was convinced that the Demon King could not use his hands on me, there was no reason to continue the conversation. I spoke to the Demon King while being wary of my surroundings.

“Then I have an appointment, so I’ll stop by.”

As I slowly took a step back, I felt as if an enormous amount of pressure was pressing down on my entire body. The Demon King revealed his presence. The woman’s hand, through which her head was pierced, stroked her stomach.

“I still have a lot of questions for you.”

Overcoming the pressure that felt like it was weighing down my whole body, I swallowed quietly and asked.

“What are you curious about?”

“I’m curious about your existence. Because he easily realizes that I am the Demon Lord, and also recognizes that he is a different Ross. Especially because the souls I possess are so mixed up! “The soul is unique, so why do you have mixed souls?”

I kept my mouth shut in response to the devil’s question that penetrated to the core. Then he raised his spear and aimed it at the Demon King.

“Do you think I’ll tell you?”

“Yes, otherwise we will have no choice but to use force to find out.”

I asked with a laugh at the Demon King’s immediate answer.

“Didn’t you say a little while ago that you can only watch with your mouth?”

“True, but I never said I would use force.”

As soon as the Demon King finished speaking, I felt a presence behind me. Someone was blocking the entrance to the alley. A blue-haired man holding a spear with blades on both sides. Just by looking at it, I could easily guess who the other person was.

“… Was Confsion an escort?”

Hearing my words mixed with a sigh, the Demon King laughed, tapping the woman’s stomach from the inside.

“Hehe, you can tell who the other person is just by looking at them. As expected, you seem to be hiding a lot of interesting secrets. “How do you feel about answering now?”

“… “It can’t be.”

“Then there’s nothing we can do. I have no choice but to look inside my head. “It doesn’t matter if I kill him as long as his head is intact.”

As the Demon King spoke, footsteps were heard from behind. The demon lord inside my stomach would not intervene, so my opponent was Confsion. When he turned his body, the blue-haired man opened his mouth with an expression of obvious annoyance.

“Yes, yes, it’s someone’s command. I have to listen.”

The man who was walking around stopped, looked at me, and smiled brightly at me, as if I was an acquaintance I hadn’t seen in a long time.

“Oh, what? Do you use windows too? It’s been a while since we’ve met each other with the same unique tastes, right? “This is going to be more fun than I thought.”

There are only two people in Confsion who use spears. One is Iron Blood Rene who uses the Spear of Destruction. The other is Cormo in the decisive battle, who was in charge of number 7 of Confsion. He was a blue-haired spearman who wielded a spear similar to the Bangcheonhwageuk used by Lu Bu, a famous general in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Like the Spear of Destruction used by Iron-Blooded Rene, Confsion had a setting where each weapon had a special ability. The decisive battle spear used by Kormo also had a special ability. As its name suggests, the opponent fighting Kormo cannot escape the boundary connected by the lines of the [battlefield] until the winner or loser of the fight is decided.

The battlefield had the characteristic of not being able to cross the border, so even if you used magic, you could not escape the battlefield. A battlefield for a true diary where no one’s intervention is possible. There, Kormo preferred to attack indiscriminately by driving the opponent to the corner of the border with a wide-ranging attack using the whalers on both sides of the spear.

In one-on-one combat, the most powerful weapon is the spear. Even in situations where there were distance restrictions due to boundaries, you could fight to your advantage by controlling the distance.

“After listening to the conversation, how did it seem like you knew me?”

“Yes, it is impossible not to know Cormo from the 7th decisive battle of Confsion.”

“Haha, I didn’t know I would be that famous? “Then, shall we check your skills?”

I checked my surroundings when I saw Kormo lowering the spear on his shoulder in a shaky manner. The recognized spatial coordinates disappeared. [The battlefield] had already unfolded. There was a clearly visible border at the left and right ends of the alley. Fortunately, the spatial coordinates previously recognized within the boundary remain the same.

At that moment, Cormo’s shoulder moved. Although his attack seemed to be a light swing, the power contained in his spear blade was enough to lightly cut down even a stone pillar. I read the attack’s trajectory with my eyes and avoided the attack by pulling my forward foot back. The spear that was passing along its path suddenly stopped in the air and pierced as if trying to pierce the neck.

visor-!

I already knew that the first attack was a bait, so I was able to deflect Wolah’s spear blade by lifting the spear with my elbow. Kormo’s eyes turned sharp with a low exclamation of “Hoo.”

“Please read this too!”

Kormo, with a distorted smile, began to attack without stopping for a moment. I also launched a series of counterattacks against him. As the spear blades met each other in the air, the spears were greatly bent and bounced off the edge. The maximum speed is similar. However, the power contained in the spear was superior to Cormo’s.

Cormo vigorously swung his spear and took a step forward. It was an intentional action, knowing that he had no choice but to take a step back from me to maintain his distance.

He took a step back and at the same time lowered his spear low, lowering his body’s center of gravity as much as possible in a crouching position so that he could fire the spear at any time. Cormo, like me, lowered his spear just before it touched the ground, lowering his body’s center of gravity.
