The next Demon King Sloan encountered resembled a gecko with red flashes from its eyes.
[Death…. Huh!? Crack!?]
A red flash pierced through dozens of Green Skins, trying to cut Sloan's upper body in half, but he couldn't even react to her sword strike that came much faster than that.
[Lurne! Nainooom!]
There was an identical looking fish next to it, but strangely enough it had the ability to swim on land as if it were water.
It was a strange ability, but as soon as the Demon King dived, half of his body exploded. Sloan's fist struck the ground, causing a huge explosion and creating a crater tens of meters deep.
Uruk Heizen couldn't believe it when he saw this.
'This can't be happening… It can't be.'
Because even in his own mind, the brilliant plan to blow up the city guarded by those pitiful walls and break the skull of that woman called the warrior seemed perfect.
Where on earth did it all go wrong? The number of troops? The quality of troops?
Unfortunately, having all that doesn't do much good.
A single deformed being named Sloan ruined all of their ambitious plans.
The greenskin army that had taken hundreds of years to build collapsed. When Sloan charged, the ogre army that had taken years to prepare was torn to pieces.
Ah! This can't be happening… His eyes started spinning. It was fading away in vain… To humans, all the precious troops were evaporating!
"I have to go back. The mother body is still there. If I have time, I can call… ."
"Daejaaang!"
"Huh?"
A stupid goblin adjutant, who had not learned the title of 'Demon King' no matter how many times he was told, came running with a lot of blood on his face.
Uruk Heizen had no time to be surprised at the sight of his messenger covered in blood as he burst through the ranks to face Sloan.
"Are you the captain?"
Black hair soaked with blood. Internal organs and flesh are stuck all over the body.
The only thing that was intact was the holy sword she was holding. As soon as it touched flesh, the heat from its light burned away the fat and blood. And it still gave off a white light, trying to devour the flesh of its enemies.
"Yes… . I am the great king of the demon world. I am the 51st Haizen Uruk."
"Wow… . I see? That's pretty high among all the guys I've killed so far!"
Sloan exclaimed in admiration, raising his holy sword. Uruk Heizen's pride twitched at the provocative stance.
"I will yield the first blow."
"How dare you! Challenge me!"
Each Demon King has his own unique ability. In the case of Ballistics, he can use stealth, and in the case of Heizen Uruk, he can secrete a special substance in his brain to double his physical abilities.
An axe swung with such brute force required no skill. In addition, a steel axe weighing a ton, suitable for a 3m tall body, emitted such powerful force that it could be called a gunpowder weapon.
But it swung up and down so quickly that it was a blur for a moment. To crush the body of the fearless warrior in front of him into a lump of meat—
"What."
Kwaaang! Urzen Heizen felt a tingling sensation all over his arms. His shoulders were also sore. That was understandable, since his arms had been thrown back almost to the point of being thrown back.
"You should eat more rice too. It's so light."
"this—!"
"Oh, right. Sorry! I can't eat it!"
That was true. If your jaw is broken, you won't be able to eat properly.
Sloan stretched his arm out in front of him as if he was picking up something from a distance, and grabbed Uruk Heizen's left arm. The movement was so fast and strong that he didn't even realize it.
"Kkueek!"
The pulled Heizen Uruk passed Sloan and fell forward like trash. It hit the floor with the force of being pulled along with its weight, and its jaw was crushed.
Thanks to the special brain substance, there was no pain. Except for the psychological scars from his pride. But he could be sure that his organs and bones were screaming. And his head was spinning… Was it a concussion?
'I can't believe I'm dying like this.'
Overwhelming difference in power.
This did not come from the realm of technology or magic.
Just… . The difference in power was so obvious. Like an adult playing with a child, Sloan cooked Uruk Heizen in his own way.
'But clearly, when I saw it before, there were only a few hundred goblins…'
A mistake that suddenly came to my mind.
Yes, Uruk Heizen's biggest mistake was underestimating Sloan's power.
When seen through the eyes of a dead goblin, she looked weak. So easy to catch. She was confident that she would win if it were a head-on fight, while her own kind had been killed in a vicious surprise attack.
Arrogance. Sloan doesn't do surprise attacks. He just charges in tough and cuts down his enemies. He likes to tear them apart, and he enjoys seeing his enemies suffer.
Look! The smile etched into that brown face… Uruk Heizen trembled and raised his arms.
"Yes, to you, what the heck are we… . What is it?"
"Ah? Hmm! A toy? Something a little more sturdy, something like that."
"You, you. Are not a warrior."
"Hey, you're a warrior, right? Chosen by the goddess? By the way. You… are stronger than I thought. Ah! If I had known this would happen, I would have swung my strength a little more weakly. I think I went too hard."
It is not human. It is not a warrior. It is the most primitive—
"You! Are not human! Why are you here…."
"Haa… . It's suddenly not fun. You, just die."
Pooh! Uruk Heizen died like that. The holy sword was deeply embedded in his eyeball.
"Playing with the Demon King is fun, but the real fun is… Valley."
It was always funny to see that little guy flustered. He was also a perfect way to relieve his colleagues' sexual desires. She laughed heartily and walked briskly.
I guess I'll have to watch Valley suffer some more. She chuckled.
***
This is absolutely ridiculous.
I couldn't even imagine that Uruk Heizen would die so easily.
He was a fearsome being to a low-ranking demon lord like me, but he ended up dying in one blow.
'It wasn't a surprise attack or anything. They just went in head-on and killed him.'
It felt a bit vain, but once I felt the power flowing in as the guy died, I stopped thinking like that.
'To this extent…!'
The body evolves several steps at once. The senses become much sharper, and the vision is much clearer. The skin itself becomes tougher, and now it is impossible to pierce it with a sword or something.
In addition, his magical power has been greatly enhanced. He can now use even simple magic.
'It feels like I've gone up 10 levels in the hierarchy in one go!'
He is no longer the 72nd Demon King. He is the 62nd Demon King!
… It doesn't change the fact that I'm still at the bottom. Even the guys stronger than me have all died, so I'm still at the bottom.
'One thing that is certain is that Sloan is strong enough to cut down lower-tier Demon Kings as easily as eating rice.'
However, I don't know if she can beat the top 36 Demon Kings. Those guys… they seem a bit out of place for someone of my kind.
There are some who don't make any sense. They are my kind in that they don't attack me first, but that's all. They'll probably attack me too when they're hungry.
'But it's become clear that we can catch guys stronger than that in the same way.'
If you look at the strength of the Demon King's rank, her strength is… . 41st place? She should be able to beat up Uruk Heizen like a dog. I haven't seen her full power yet. Maybe.
"Valley."
"Huh? You came. I didn't know it would end this easily."
Oh, why did it have to be me who met her first… This is driving me crazy. Elisa was behind me, and when Sloan, covered in blood, approached, she grabbed his buttocks tightly.
For a moment, I almost groaned in pain, but fortunately, I was able to endure it.
'But my physical abilities have definitely improved. Why?'
This means that these fragile-looking hands are strong enough to cause me pain.
That can't be. Is Elesa hiding her power? Then she wouldn't lose to that goblin. No matter how well you hit the other girls besides Sloan, they're below her power…
"Oh, the power that came in this time is quite big?"
"The guy you just killed is strong. Oh, right. Valley. Your strength must have increased too. Want to check?"
It went up…?
It's a well-known fact that the more heroes kill demon lords, the stronger they become. That's why many heroes tried to kill me, the lowest rank.
But, I've never heard of the warrior's party members becoming stronger.
"How is it?"
"… ."
"Oh, this is your first time! Sorry."
"I have no idea what that means… You got stronger? "
"Ah! I haven't told you my unique ability yet."
She smiled faintly.
"My unique ability is to catch and kill the Demon King, and share some of that power with my party members."
It's ridiculous. This unique ability is useless for a warrior to have. No demon lord has ever died before. But for a monster with insane power like Sloan to gain this ability…
This ability deserves to be called the worst unique ability of all time.
"Okay. Now let's clean up what's left. I hate cleaning up, but massacre is an exception."
I was arrogant. And stupid. If I had known that this monster would appear out of nowhere, I would have run far away and somehow saved my life.
You're going to infiltrate the warrior party? You're going to cause discord and cause internal strife so that they can fight each other?
This is not even funny. This is… . a plan that was never going to happen from the start.
"Are you surprised? Well, is this your first time seeing something like that? It's easier if you just admit it, Sloan is a crazy monster."
"Ugh… ."
Kkwaaaa …
"That's what I'm talking about. Hmm… . What should I say, he likes to fight things? That's why he usually has a lot of restrictions. If he shows his true power, the fight will end easily. "
"You're putting restrictions on it?"
"Yeah, for example… . Like deliberately swinging the sword with half the strength. Or not using the Holy Sword's magic. "
Then there's a chance that what I just saw wasn't power.
"You look like you can't believe it. Just accept it. Think of Sloan as a monster who can't communicate… But Elisa, why do you look like that?"
"What is it?"
Only when Camilla spoke to her did Elisa free her buttocks.
"I was talking to Valley, and your expression looks like you're looking at me with enmity. Hmm… Do you like Valley? Is that why you're making that face?"
"That can't be true."
"Ah! Really? Then I can share the bed with Valley tonight."
You want to share the same bed again? What are you planning?
"That won't do."
"Huh?"
"Never."
The elf archer muttered with a tone of contempt. Camilla's face also turned red with annoyance.
Whether Sloan was strong or weak, no matter what… the party was in strife.
It's meaningless infighting.
