The Only Ending for the Evil Count Pig Is Destruction

chapter 405



405 – Scene 405# Proclamation

*

“It’s urgent! “There is news that a large number of unidentified humans have appeared in the neutral zone along the Trigian border!”

“Even on the Trigian border!”

The Prime Minister of the Maykahel Empire, Odel Ryumin, was astonished by the successive sudden news. This is already the 12th urgent report we have received from the border guards.

As the sun rose, mysterious pillars of light were observed in the neutral zone bordering the border. I couldn’t tell whether it was God’s descent or God’s divine punishment that began to illuminate the whole world. People just looked at it blankly…

The pillar of light soon faded away. And on the spot, people whose nationality was unknown appeared.

At first, the border guards did not think it was a big deal. Because even in the neutral zone, there were many immigrants and outcasts who did not belong anywhere. Or, I thought it was a group of people who were curious about the pillar of light and went to check it out.

But…

“Look. What is their number?”

“When confirmed with the naked eye, it is said that there are at least 2,000 people! However, it is said that the number continues to increase…”

“Oh my god… So 10,000 people?”

“Didn’t you say it continues to increase? There must have been at least 100,000 people by now.”

“City, 100,000 people?!”

The number of people who appeared at the spot where the pillar of light appeared was a threat to this country. A scale that would allow you to invade a country if you wanted to. In the unprecedented emergency that occurred in less than half a day, Odel and other officials hurriedly gathered at the imperial palace.

“What on earth is going on?” .”

“Could it be that someone summoned them?”

“A summoning on such a large scale! “I’ve never heard of it!”

“Everyone, calm down. First of all, it is important to check their purpose…”

After calming down the ministers, Odell asked the soldier who came to deliver his urgent news.

“Look. “Have there been any contacts with them?”

“Yes! “They contacted the border guards first.”

“What did they say?”

“That is…” .”

“It’s okay, so tell me.”

The soldier hesitated for a moment and then opened his mouth as if he was embarrassed.

“They… “They are the warriors who came to defeat the Demon King and are asking us to open the way.”

“A hero?”

“Yes.”

A completely unexpected word popped out.

“Did you really say they were heroes?”

“Yes. They are all heroes and have a quest to defeat the Demon King… ? They say they received this.”

“Quest?”

“I don’t know, but isn’t it like a mission?”

“Umm…”

The Empire’s Chancellor, Odel Ryumin, was lost in thought.

Like the previous generation, no warriors appeared in this generation. There were no legendary warriors who had long ago been cut off, nor were there any new warriors chosen by the gods. In the end, the heads of the Seven Stars, led by the Isaachel family, heroes with the magic of light, had to step in and defeat the Demon King.

However, the Demon King who appeared in front of humans was taking a friendly stance. He held out his hand first, hoping that the monsters and humans would no longer fight. It was unprecedented. Because she was the first demon king who prioritized reconciliation and alliance rather than destruction and slaughter.

Hostility toward monsters was deep-rooted, but forming an alliance with them was purely for the good of the empire and this world. If the battle had been fought without a hero, the empire and other countries would have had to risk their own survival.

However, when the friendly relationship with the Demon King was established, the heroes showed up late.

“Well, then those pillars of light… It was a miracle of God sending the chosen warriors!”

“Indeed!”

The senior officials heave a sigh of relief. If this whole situation is a miracle of God, there is nothing to worry about. Because God will be on humanity’s side. Humans just have to follow God’s will.

“Then since the heroes have appeared, wouldn’t it be a good idea to cooperate?”

“No. Hey! Did you forget? We are in alliance with the devil. Are you going to ignore the alliance and attack the Demon King now!?”

“Isn’t that just a temporary alliance? “Isn’t Your Majesty keeping the army on standby in case the monsters attack at any moment?”

“Umm…”

“You can’t be in a complete alliance with the devil, who is the enemy of humanity in the first place! In other words, it was an alliance that would one day be broken. “If the warriors have appeared, wouldn’t it be right for us to open the way too?”

As the ministers said, it was clear that the alliance with the Demon King was only a temporary alliance. However, Odell could not easily come up with an answer.

“But…”

“Prime Minister! What are you talking about? Since it is God’s will, the justification is sufficient.”

“… You know what you’re talking about. However, this situation is unprecedented. I’ve never heard of a case where not one but 100,000 warriors appear. And there is no guarantee that they are real heroes.”

“It’s so frustrating! The Prime Minister must have seen the pillars of light! “If that isn’t a miracle from God, what is it?”

“Whether it’s a miracle or anything else, I can’t decide important matters for the country alone. Just wait and see. After the sun sets, His Majesty wakes up…”

“Each hero is a precious force. Do you plan to lose such warriors to other countries? I can’t wait until your Majesty wakes up! “Then you will be late!”

“That’s right!”

As the opinions of the officials narrowed down to one, Odell was in trouble. At this hour, when the sun is high in the sky, it is not yet time for the emperor to wake up. To be precise, it was the time when Luna Maykahel, the Empress of the Night who took care of state affairs, and not Lucy Maykahel, as she was known to the outside world, was asleep.

“Prime Minister! Please make a decision quickly!”

“Everyone please be quiet.”

At that time, a low voice was heard. The person who appeared among the arguing officials was Marco Peirigris, the captain of the Royal Guard. He was somehow holding a door with luxurious decoration.

“Captain Marco… ? Why are you…”

“Be polite.”

“Huh?”

“His Majesty the Emperor has passed away.”

After saying that, Marco turned the door he was holding and placed it in front of the officials. Only then did Odell realize that it wasn’t a door.

“Mirror… ?”

“Have all the ministers gathered?”

“Your Majesty?!”

The ministers, started by the sudden voice, were shocked when they saw the full-length mirror that Marco had brought. A girl standing arrogantly with her arms crossed among the middle-class officials… Because I saw the emperor of the empire, Luna Maykahel.

However, it was an emperor who only existed in the mirror. The ministers looked around in confusion, but the girl reflected in the mirror was not there.

“How could Your Majesty…”

“It is the ‘mirror of consciousness.’ “It’s one of the imperial treasures.”

Now that I think about it, there it was. An artifact for an emperor with two personalities. It is a mirror that can awaken and reflect the consciousness of one side that is normally asleep. However, since it required a lot of magical energy to use, it was not used except in emergencies. When I looked closely, I saw Marco, the head of the SS, continuing to pour his magical energy on me.

Luna May Kahel, looking at her subjects through the mirror, spoke in a solemn voice.

“I will tell you in advance, but there will be no breaking the alliance with the Demon King.”

“?!”

For an instant, there was a stir among the officials gathered at the imperial palace.

“It looks like you want to know the reason. However, the reason is the same as what Prime Minister Odell already said.”

“Your Majesty?!”

“I have never heard of a mass summoning of heroes like this. “They may not be the warriors we think.”

“But, Your Majesty. If he had the ability to summon warriors like that, he wouldn’t be a god…”

“Okay. As the saying goes, it could be a miracle from God. But is there any guarantee that that god is our god?”

“!”

Luna Maykahel sat on the throne beyond the mirror.

“If we look back on history, our God always wanted us to overcome hardships on our own. When the Demon King appeared, he did not step forward directly, but he gave us a hero instead of a hero, and the magic of light instead of the power of a hero. Our God is like that. But the one who sent the warriors here in droves was God… ? “It’s bullshit.”

Luna already knew. The fact that there already exists a warrior named Wendy. That’s why she was able to see that the heroes who appeared this time were fake.

The person who was most embarrassed by Luna’s words was the central minister who had been approaching Odel just a while ago.

“But Your Majesty… !”

“Close the spout.”

“That… !”

“I told you to close it.”

“…”

Jungshin finally closes his mouth due to the terrifying force. After confirming that, Luna withdrew her cold gaze and called out to the man with his head down.

“Odell.”

“Yes.”

“Tell them not to panic and to thoroughly defend the border. “Let the people know the current situation in detail.”

“All right. However, the border between Trizia and Elgard has few garrisons, so how about sending in the imperial army?”

“No. General Leon’s troops are stationed in the area, so there shouldn’t be any problem. And order the imperial troops stationed near the border to guard the border. If there is a place like Trizi or Elgard that lacks troops to defend, request reinforcements from the Ruelberta family.”

“Yes? Ruelberta… “You mean?”

“Okay. “I have already discussed this with Count Ruelberta.”

Tristan said to Luna the other day.

– Luna. If a monster invades or something unexpected happens, you can move Aslan under my command.

-What… ?

Since ancient times, the imperial family and the Ruelberta family have had a hostile relationship. They were busy yelling at each other when they met, but with the successful completion of the northern expedition, a wind of peace was blowing to some extent.

However, it was strange that Tristan would first give command of his soldiers to the emperor.

-I will tell them to move when you command them.

-… Don’t you think it’s funnier that I can’t move my subordinate’s private soldiers in the first place?

-My private soldiers are my private soldiers. It’s not your army.

-… Okay. Wouldn’t you be so young? Jim is tired of giving you these common sense rebuttals.

At that time, I just thought it was ridiculous and moved on… Naturally, it was thought that the emperor would not move his soldiers unless it was a very serious matter.

However… Something worthy of that happened today.

‘No way…’ ‘ .’

Tristan’s face flashed in Luna’s mind. The day he said he would give Luna the command to move Aslan, he was somehow serious. Not only that, he encouraged Luna to move his troops at any time… Didn’t they anticipate this situation that would happen today?

‘No… That can’t be possible.’

Luna immediately shook her head. No matter how Tristan is, he can’t do things like predict the future. Because it can no longer be called the domain of humans.

After organizing her thoughts, Luna spoke to the ministers again with a solemn emperor’s face.

“Not a single fake hero will be able to set foot in my country.”
