The Only Ending for the Evil Count Pig Is Destruction

379 – Scene 379# the Second Demon King

*

Lina was speechless at her terrible appearance. Isaac was hanging, covered in blood.

“… It ended up looking ugly.”

“How… Doing something like this…”

Lina took out her handkerchief and wiped Isaac’s body. Not only the pure white handkerchief but also her hands were instantly stained red with blood. But Lina did not care and cleaned his body with care.

Then the horrific wounds that were covered in blood were revealed. A wound torn by a whip. It was so deep that all the bones were visible. It was such a terrible sight that I wanted to look away.

“Don’t look. “It’s not something a child should see.”

“Well, I’m not a child… ” ! I’m an adult…”

“By my standards, I’m a child.”

“… How old are you, Isaac?”

The boy seemed to think for a moment and then opened his mouth.

“… Well. Anyway, there are more than you. So you are a child to me.”

“Well, where is that…” ” !”

“If you feel wrong, shouldn’t you have been born first?”

“uuu… Isaac, you must be joking in this situation… ?”

“I’m sorry.”

“But to the extent of saying I’m sorry…”

“I’m sorry for putting you through such a terrible experience.”

“Yes… ?”

Lina looked up at Isaac at the sudden remark. Then she saw his shadowed face.

“I said I would let you run away, but I’m sorry it ended up like this.”

“Oh, no… It’s not for Isaac to apologize… The person who should apologize is actually me…”

“?”

“I heard that a warrior is someone who saves people in trouble… But Isaac was in such trouble, and as a hero, I couldn’t do anything… He’s not helping at all…”

Lina bit her lip. Ever since she became a warrior, she has felt helpless. She felt extremely frustrated that the person who had been given the great mission of defeating the Demon King could not save even one person in front of her.

“So… I decided to marry Cornwell. Because it’s the only way I can save my family, friends, and Isaac…”

“Reena…”

“I know… That I am not worthy of a warrior… This is all I can do. I don’t know why God chose me to be a warrior, but I’m not a person worthy of a warrior…”

“… Know. That’s why I told you to run away.”

“Am I being punished for breaking God’s will and trying to run away?”

Lina trembled. The reason these misfortunes and trials came to her was perhaps because she abandoned her duties as a warrior and ran away. Maybe it’s because God is angry.

Maybe it was because of her that Isaac became like this…

“It’s not your fault.”

“?!”

“It’s not your fault that I ended up like this.”

As if reading Lina’s thoughts, Isaac shook her head.

“I should have planned more thoroughly. It’s all my fault.”

“But if I had accepted God’s will…”

“God’s will? Don’t worry about that. Rather, we should blame the unbearable trials and harsh fate of God. Just because he’s God, he can’t force you to do whatever he wants. I am… There is no doubt that humans are beings who create their own destiny. Just because you were born with the blood of a warrior and chosen to be a warrior, you do not have to live as a warrior.”

“If I don’t fight the devil, a lot of people could die and get hurt… Like Isaac…”

Lina didn’t want the people around her to be unhappy because of her. She hoped that she would rather be unhappy alone. If she could carry it alone and make everyone happy… She was willing to accept her fate.

Isaac slowly opened his mouth.

“… “I know a girl who was born with an ‘unlucky’ fate.”

“Yes?”

“If I just washed dishes, I would pile up a tomb of dishes, so I often tripped over my own legs and fell, so it was rare that my arms and legs were healthy. There were many tears as I was a helpless crybaby. She always tried hard, but she made a series of mistakes as if she had bad luck in her life…”

What is she suddenly saying? Lina tried to ask, but Isaac’s face was extremely serious. There was even a faint smile on his face, as if recalling a distant memory.

“She was frustrated and frustrated, but she didn’t give up. I tried to live steadily and find my own happiness. “Even though I stumbled over ‘misfortune’ many times, I got up again.”

It was such a strange thing. I don’t know who that girl is, but I empathize with her story. It may have been because it was a story about her trying to resist the fate she had been given.

“Therefore… Lina, it’s okay if you don’t accept your fate as a hero.”

“Really… May I? Without a hero… This world is becoming dangerous…”

“If the world was going to be destroyed because there were no heroes, it would have been destroyed long ago. It’s a funny story that the fate of the world is determined by the actions of one person chosen by God. Even if you don’t step forward, someone brave will appear and defeat the devil. So… “Don’t worry and run away.”

Isaac looked at Lina with kind eyes. The look in her eyes was as if she had known her for a long time.

“Flee from this cruel fate. Lina.”

“… Isaac, why are you so nice to me? Why do you go to such lengths to help me… ? He said he did it because he felt sorry for me, but…”

Lina wiped the blood from Isaac’s face with her handkerchief. And she put into her mouth the question that arose in a corner of her mind.

“Isaac… Is Isaac the guardian deity who protects our ancestors? ?”

“Genius… ?”

“Yes…”

Lina explained to Isaac. Every time her ancestors she was in danger, she appeared and saved them, and about her her benefactor her who disappeared.

She continues to honor that benefactor.

Isaac, who was quietly listening to the story, burst into laughter.

“No matter what, there’s no way I’m still alive.”

“Yeah, right? Also…”

Lina, who was embarrassed, wiggled her fingers for no reason. She knew it was nonsense. But deep down she was wishing that Isaac were her guardian deity. It was reassuring just to have her by my side, protecting me.

“Lina.”

“Yes?”

“I don’t care what happens. So, get out of Cornwell as soon as possible. And take your family and friends and run far away.”

In effect, Isaac was telling him to leave him behind. Because he thought he would be a burden to Lina. But Lina shook her head.

“No… Sir Isaac. I will not abandon you, Isaac…”

“Reena…”

“Like Isaac said, I will run away from my fate… However, Isaac is also with us. Isaac, run away with me.”

“You…”

“Do not worry…”

Lina smiled as if to reassure Isaac.

“I’m not going to just do what fate tells me to do…”

*

The next evening, Lina accepted Cornwell’s invitation to dinner.

“Welcome. Lina.”

Cornwell, sitting arrogantly, waved his hand at Lina. Lina bowed her head and sat down at her table.

“They say the dress is like wings, and the dress really suits you. How is it? “Do you like my gift?”

“… Yes. Thank you.”

Lina was wearing a black dress given to her by Cornwell. The sight of her in a dress that showed off her slender shoulders stimulated the viewer’s protective instincts.

“They say he still doesn’t eat well.”

“… “I just don’t have an appetite.”

“Uh huh. Then write it. Even now, I’m skinny. Let’s finish cooking today. Then I’ll let you meet your friends.”

“Really… ?”

“Of course. “I swear on my name.”

Cornwell grinned at Lina. Lina was horrified by that laugh, but she didn’t show it. Okay. For the safety of her family and friends, this is something she can tolerate.

“Okay then, bring the meal.”

The course meal began with Cornwell clapping. Foods that Rina, who was from the countryside, had never heard of were presented one after another. Although she had no idea how to eat, Lina eagerly ate her food with a knife and fork. She thought it was just to meet her friends. How could she eat?

“I don’t know if the food suits my taste.”

“Yes…”

“If it’s not enough, tell me. “You wouldn’t have eaten something like this in the countryside.”

She honestly couldn’t even tell what it tasted like. Although her dish was fancy and made with high-quality ingredients, it did not impress Lina at all. I just continued eating in silence, responding to Cornwell’s chatter.

How much did you eat like that?

“Now all that’s left is dessert. How was the meal?”

“… “It was delicious.”

I felt sick. This is Lina, who usually provides news. She forced herself to eat and feel sick. But if I could meet her friends through this …

A servant came over and placed dessert in front of Lina.

“… Huh?”

What was placed on the dessert plate was not a sweet refreshment… It was a note dirty with dirt and feathers. It was hard to make out, but it was definitely…

“I kept my promise. Lina.”

“…Yes?”

Cornwell wiped his mouth with a napkin as if he was satisfied with his meal. Then he smiled and asked Lina.

“How is it? Was ‘Your Friends’ delicious?”

“… ?!!!”

It was only after hearing Cornwell’s sarcasm that Lina realized. The dishes I ate a while ago… That…

Lina couldn’t hold back and vomited. She vomited out everything that was in her stomach. She vomited and vomited. If I could, I wanted to recite this terrible nightmare.

But no matter how much I vomited, I didn’t wake up. Tears flowed.

“Ah… Ro, roti… Mickey…”

Please…

Please.

Please tell me it’s a lie.

“Why, why did you do this… Why do you do this… Why…”

“What is it? “It’s an example.”

Cornwell picked up the note on Lina’s plate.

“Yes, you. Did you do something cute like this behind my back? You told your new friend to tell your father, right? “Please ask His Majesty the Emperor for help.”

It was only then that Lina realized. That note was a request from Lottie the cuckoo. Lina’s attempt to seek help outside of her was discovered.

“I’m glad Serhan noticed in advance. Right?”

“Yes.”

Serhan, the wizard who had been standing silently throughout the meal, chimed in. And the words that came out of his mouth were shocking.

“And I set fire to the Tis Forest just as you told me to do.”

“Fire… You said you screamed? In the forest?”

“Okay. If you do something useless again, you’ll be in trouble.”

“Too bad… It’s too much… ! I wouldn’t go that far… !”

“Haha. It’s too much. It’s too much. You brought it all on yourself. If you had quietly become mine, something like this wouldn’t have happened, right?”

“Ah…”

I could see the burning Tis Forest outside the window. Burning next to her was her hometown, the village of Tis, where her father lived. In her despair, Lina fell to the floor and sobbed.

“Why…”

Lina was in despair. She just wanted to live a normal life. She just wanted to live quietly for the rest of her life…

“Entire… It burned down…”

My father and all my friends are gone. In her despair, Lina thought. Why… ? Why… ? Why did they have to die?

And she realized.

‘That’s right…’

It was because she became a warrior. When she was chosen as a hero, everything went to shit for her. She died because she was chosen as a warrior.

Excited.

The heartbeat was loud. Lina’s heart was shaking. Her heart shook violently, as if an earthquake had occurred. And she slowly broke down.

“Ahhh…”

Tears flowed from her eyes. What came out of Lina’s broken heart was as gray as if everything had been burned.

“Huh? “What’s wrong with you?”

“For a moment… Young master… “Something is strange.”

It was Serhan who realized that what was happening before his eyes was unusual. As a wizard, what he saw in his eyes was the unusual magical power leaking from Lina’s body hers hers. No, what was stranger than the amount of magical power was the color.

Rainbow-colored magic power, proof of a hero. It was turning pitch black. Something was polluting her her her magical power

“W-what… ?”

The change was soon visible to Cornwell. Lina’s hair was turning completely white.

“Ah…”

Excited.

Lina’s vision she was engulfed in darkness. All I could hear in her ears her voice was lacking intonation.

[The God of Hell feels the despair in your heart.]

-No…

A voice was heard sighing from somewhere.

Excited.

-Then no. Reena…

It was a voice of genuine concern for her… Now… I couldn’t hear it.

[The hero becomes corrupted.]

Excited.

[The God of Hell recognizes you as the new ‘Demon King.’]
