*****In the Kimberly family's mansion in the capital of Rosemona****
At around 4 pm on the same day that Zhang Youji and Suzu made a new promise and started their daily life in the maze, the perspective shifted to the royal capital.
When Zhang Youji traveled to the Elf Kingdom, met the Elf King and brought him back to the labyrinth, and many things happened to revive Ling, the King's side changed due to the relationship with the Demon King hiding in the dark. The situation is becoming more and more chaotic. Now, the streets of the royal capital are filled with panic and rumors are spreading everywhere.
But there are no rumors about the Demon King. Most of them are related to the bad words of the heroes and the king. However, the great king who lives in the royal city and the four innocent heroes who eat, drink and have fun all day long have no idea about this matter. Although the heroes also noticed some places when they were playing in the streets, they were easily dealt with by the servants recently assigned to them, and the information for the king and some important ministers was completely closed and managed.
As for the eldest daughter of the Kimberly family, Kimberly Liya, who knew the inside story and was recently framed in front of the king, she is now discussing it with her most trusted maid Lingya in the recently built secret room in her home. The Demon King's countermeasures, and the method of escaping from the royal capital at the critical moment with important people.
[Lady Liya, we have less than 20 people left, and the five A-level adventurers we hired the day before yesterday lost contact this morning. The lady who assisted us in the secret force of the royal capital, her The dead body was also discovered by our people in a very tragic manner at noon. 】
[Have you reached your limit? No, it should be said that it is a miracle that it can be delayed for such a long time. Now that the Just family has taken refuge in the Demon King, it is time to prepare for rebellion. Lingya, now is the time. Ask someone to forcibly take the father, mother, and secret away from the capital and go straight to the starting town! 】
[Please leave it to me, but, Lady Liya, what are you going to do? 】
[···I am now going to find the Hero of the Bow and Ye Lianmeng, confess some things to her and Jieli, and use the strength of the two of them to force the king and some important officials to leave the royal capital, and then I will go to King Li alone. It's not far away, so I'm looking for help in that maze. 】
When the maid Lingya bitterly reported the current situation to her master Kimberly Liya, Liya immediately expressed her decision after pondering painfully for a while, and when Lingya heard it, it was an instant He showed a worried expression and cautiously began to confirm certain things with Liya.
【······Lady Liya, do you really want to...? 】
[···Well, now that all the messengers who went to the Theocracy to ask for help have disappeared, even if they escape to the starting town, they are just lingering, and the only brave person who can rely on now is Ye Lianmeng. Alas, as for the other brave people At the critical moment, he is either of no use or has already surrendered to the enemy. It is really annoying to talk about it, and Ye Lianmeng cannot defeat the devil with only one person. Therefore, the only way we have now is to find him. The man who lives not far from the king, the blue summoner of the labyrinth, Mr. Zhang Youji. 】
[···Sir Liya, please allow me to speak frankly, can we really trust the gentleman you often mention? 】
[Lingya, I understand your worries, but now that we can’t contact the Theocracy and the brave man can’t defeat the Demon King, we have no other choice but to do this. Moreover, I trust Mr. Zhang Youji. , if it were him, he would definitely not lose even if his opponent was the Demon King. 】
[I understand, but, Lady Liya, I will never allow you to take risks alone. If you want to go to that unknown labyrinth, please take me with you, although I may not be able to send anyone at that time. Useful, but at least I can be your shield and delay you for some time. 】
[Really, don’t look at me with that expression that you’re about to cry,... I understand, just take you there, time waits for no one, Lingya, you are making sure that your father and mother are safely out of the capital. After that, let's make preparations to rescue the king. During this time, I will tell Ye Lianmeng and Jieli about Lord Zhang Youji, and try to persuade them to help us. 】
[Thank you very much for allowing me to be willful. Then, Lady Liya, I will take my leave first. 】
In this way, after Liya and Lingya made the next decision, the two of them immediately took action separately. One of them went to the private barracks in the courtyard of the mansion and began to order people to make various kinds of things. After getting ready, the other person went to the guest room of Ye Lianmeng and Jieli, who had recently moved to the mansion. After confessing some things to the two, he began to talk to the two about the current situation in the capital.
*****In front of the Royal City Gate of the Royal Capital of Lusmona****
At around 7 o'clock in the evening on the same day, the perspective turned to Ye Lianmeng's side.
When Ye Lianmeng and Jieli were surprised to hear the confession of Liya who suddenly broke into the guest room with a very anxious expression, the two of them were immediately stunned by the content of the words. As for the two of them, they were recovering from the shock. After thinking about it, one of them immediately became furious, while the other one sighed with a relieved expression.
But just when the two of them were somewhat relaxed, what Liya said next immediately made Ye Lianmeng and Jieli's relaxed nerves tense up again, because the contents of her words were all related to the devil and the devil. It is also related to the current situation in the capital. For the two people who only think about how to collect information about Zhang Youji all day long and ignore other things, it is almost like a bolt from the blue. And Liya is dealing with Ye Lianmeng and After Jie Li finished talking about the situation in the royal capital, she immediately lowered her head and began to ask for help from the two people.
After that, Ye Lianmeng and Jieli, who helped Liya make some preparations to escape from the royal capital, and helped eliminate some obstacles, came to the gate of the royal city in the royal capital, preparing to enter the royal city and the unknown situation. After the king finished talking about the current situation, he immediately left the royal capital with the king, the brave men, and some important figures.
[Have you memorized the route mentioned by Lianmeng and Liya? The guards of the royal city may not let us in, or they may fight with them at the moment of contact. We must rush to the meeting room as quickly as possible to get the king and important figures who are having evening discussions. Hello, Lianmeng, are you listening? 】
【Already remembered! Isn't it just to bring out the king and those ministers, and by the way, Yun Guangyi and the others! Compared with these, I am still angry about Yuji's matter! If it's okay, why don't you come and tell us? ! 】
[Lianmeng, lower your voice! We are now in front of the royal city! 】
【···It must be the fault of those women who are following you.···I heard from the eldest lady that there seem to be several women following you. 】
[Lian, Lianmeng, Mr., I always feel that your expression now is very scary? And there seems to be some kind of black aura, ugh? ! Explosion! Oops! The Demon King's side got the better of him! Lianmeng, let’s go! No time to waste here! 】
【ah! Jieli, I can walk on my own, don’t hold me back! Damn devil, all my anger will be unleashed on you soon! 】
While Jieli and Ye Lianmeng were talking, a very loud explosion suddenly sounded in the royal city. Seeing this, Jieli felt a sense of salvation in a sense, and pulled her away. Ye Lianmeng, who had returned from the darkening, took advantage of the chaos and rushed into the royal city together, and began to rush straight to the meeting room, preparing to take out all those who needed to be taken away from the royal capital in one go.
*****During the interview at the royal capital of Rosemona Royal Castle****
At the same time that there was an explosion in the royal city, the perspective shifted to the audience room.
Yun Guangyi has never had any sense of crisis or change since he was rescued from the trap by Zhang Youji until now. He spends all day with Hua Yalin, Qiu Lan, Su Shan, the first princess Lailei, and 1 male and 4 The woman was in the harem state having fun and enjoying herself. Apart from that, she just completed some very relaxed training, meddling in her own business, and didn't think about other things at all. There were compliments and compliments all around her, without any noise at all.
Fengji, who was invited to the capital to be the instructor of the braves, was the only one who criticized Yun Guangyi and his group of braves, and had a relationship with Zhang Youji in the starting town. On the night when he was teaching the braves, They were kicked out of the royal city for being disrespectful to the braves. This incident further fueled the ignorance of the braves, making them think that no one was their opponent, and they began to become arrogant.
The brave men had such arrogant thoughts until an explosion occurred somewhere in the royal city. A certain nobleman and his son ignored the etiquette towards the king and brought some private soldiers and men in black cloaks with them, and A very beautiful woman in a luxurious dress walked into the audience room where the daily evening discussions were taking place and killed all the ministers and ministers except the 4 brave men around the king, the princess and the guardian knight Celt. When he was guarding the knight, he didn't change at all, although his face turned a little green when he saw people dying.
【Are you crazy? ! Jia]
【Hahahahaha, king! I sincerely ask you to abdicate today! 】
【Father! I want to let that Yun Guangyi go now! Try the consequences of just a brave man daring to attack me, Just Little! I want him to watch those women behind him die from all the humiliation in front of him! 】
[Hehehe, son, if you want to seek revenge on the brave man, I won’t say anything, but I have made an appointment to leave the women behind the brave man to be dealt with by this adult. 】
[Let’s stop chatting here. Because of your child’s provocation just now, the patience of the king and the heroes seems to be running out. But just in time, I will take advantage of the current atmosphere to say hello to these four useless heroes. . 】
[[[[【Uaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah? ! ? ! ? ! 】】】】】
Ignoring the king's roar, the current head of the noble Just family and his son made some sarcastic remarks to themselves, while the very beautiful woman on the Just family's side met the king. The four brave men and guardian knight Celt around her could no longer bear their words and ran towards her in fighting postures. She stepped forward gracefully and casually used magic to kill the people rushing towards her. All were seriously injured and passed out.
[It’s so boring. Let’s not talk about the knight over there. He dared to call himself a brave man at this level. It’s really funny. Although after hearing the report, I didn’t expect much from these four wastes, but I didn’t expect that there was only one. A high-level magic like saying hello turned these four losers into a seriously injured state. I originally wanted to tell you my name as a sign of pity, but you are not even qualified to listen. I am really disappointed, right? 】
[Lie, lie! How could Sir Yun Guangyi do it so easily? Yes, yes, you must have used some despicable means, right? ! Our country's powerful warriors will never be defeated so easily! 】
[Hahaha, princess, I did prepare some means, but I didn’t expect that these losers would have already laid down before I used those means. Originally, I was a little wary of the special abilities of these losers, but if I knew If the result turns out to be like this, I don't need to endure it for so long. These useless heroes are not as troublesome as a certain little girl. King, you should know who I am talking about, right? 】
【··········Have you believed the wrong person? If you had listened to the advice of the Kimberly family's daughter, Liya, you would have recalled the talented people who were demoted because of your bravery, and you would not have been a hero. Drive out of the royal city... If I hadn't been blinded by these two beasts in front of me, at least the worst wouldn't be like this,? ! 】
[Wow~ I didn’t expect to smell this kind of blood outside the maze. Hey, king, are you still alive? Ah, Yun Guangyi and the others are free to die. 】
[Lianmeng, don’t always say such rude things. Moreover, according to the information provided by Liya, I think that conspicuous woman is probably the culprit of this incident. One of the eight major demons today, the tragic demon Mar. Weiss. 】
When the king was talking to the very beautiful woman with a sad expression on his face, a voice without any tension came from the entrance of the audience room. When everyone present turned their attention What he saw after moving over was Ye Lianmeng, who was holding a holy bow that dispelled darkness and emitted white light, and Jieli, who was in a battle-ready posture, holding two magic wands.
[Oh~ I was able to find out the name that I tried my best to hide. It’s really outstanding. That little girl, you and your son should retreat with those subordinates first, and those losers over there who can’t even liberate the holy weapon. Different, it seems that the Bow Hero can...? ! 】
While the woman whom Jie Li called [The Demon King of Tragedy] [Malvis] was talking to Just and his son, Ye Lianmeng instantly opened her bow and shot 9 arrows in one go. Although 7 of them were It did not cause harm to the Demon King, but forced the Demon King away. The two arrows made a hole in the wall behind the King during the meeting, and took the opportunity to rush to the King's side with Jie Li in an instant.
【Jieli! Leave this place to me. You can escape with the king and his men first! 】
【Lianmeng, but! 】
【No time for nonsense! Hurry up and take the fainted guys, the king and princess away from here! 】
【Woo! Float! King, princess, let’s go quickly! Sorry, Lian Meng, we must escape smoothly! 】
After Ye Lianmeng, who was wary of the Demon King, yelled a few words to Jieli, Jieli released the [floating] wind magic on the four fainted warriors and the guardian knight Celtic, causing the fainted The five people floated in the air and followed behind them. Then, with their apologies to Ye Lianmeng, they led the king and princess away from the hole in the wall. At the same time, at this moment, the fierce battle between Ye Lianmeng and the "Tragic Demon King" began. .
*****In the Demon King's Hall (formerly between interviews) in the Royal Capital of Rosmona*****
At around 8 o'clock in the evening on the same day, the perspective shifted to [The Demon King of Tragedy] and [Malves].
After that, [Malves] completely defeated Ye Lianmeng in only 15 minutes, then sealed Ye Lianmeng's ability and locked her in a special cell, and escaped with the king and princess, as well as waking up 5 unconscious people. Jieli, on the other hand, arrived at the pre-arranged escape location and joined Liya and the others. She took refuge in the Demon King's spear hero, Yan Haoyan. He suddenly appeared and started a conflict with the group.
As a result, three people, Jieli, the first princess Lailei, and the sword hero Qiu Lan, were captured alive, two people, Liya and Lingya, were seriously injured, three heroes and Kelte were slightly injured, and The king, who was basically unharmed, desperately escaped from the royal capital where chaos began.
[Malves] sat on a luxurious seat that matched the status of the Demon King. She listened to the report of Yan Haoyan who was kneeling in front of her, nodded with satisfaction, and then gave him the reward that had been agreed upon in advance.
[Although it is a pity to let the little girl named Liya escape, but since you have completed the corresponding work, then I will give you the reward as originally agreed, and because the princess is still of some use, So I can't give it to you for the time being, but on the other hand, you can do whatever you want with the Sword Hero. I have no interest in that kind of trash. You can play with her however you want. Even if it breaks, I won't say anything. 】
【···Thank you for your grace and reward. 】
[Well, very good, go down and deliver the order. Tell that noble. Notify as many nobles as possible who are loyal to the king near the royal capital. The scope is set to the nobles who can reach the forest outside the royal capital tomorrow morning. Just in the name of catching the brave man who suddenly betrayed and kidnapped the king, let them each lead their troops to the forest to arrest them. My servants have already driven the necessary escapees, the king and his party into the forest. After that, as long as I use my royal skills from a distance, I can completely consume the power of the king's faction in that unknown maze. 】
【······, But, will it be so smooth? That kind of lie would be exposed instantly if the king came forward to deny it, right? 】
[Don’t worry, under the effect of my kingly skills and tragedy actor, no matter how the king or the hero clarifies, it’s useless. The only unknown now is the strength of the maze in the forest and its owner. Therefore, I sent a few dolls to test it before, and the result was that I only learned that there may be power in that maze that can resist me, and that SSS-level high-level Zerg monsters can come out of the maze. The other two points are unknown. . 】
【···What if the maze holder joins forces with those guys like Yun Guangyi? 】
[It doesn’t matter, just crush them together. It doesn’t matter if there are 10 such useless heroes. The labyrinth is the most important now. My servants have already secretly stared at the entrance of the labyrinth, regardless of the holder of the labyrinth. If you want to resist or succumb to me, if there is any slight movement, I will know it here instantly. I will wait until tomorrow afternoon. If there is no reaction by then, I will let the king's army go in first to consume the monsters in the labyrinth. Then he issued a final announcement, and if he didn't surrender, he would directly seize the maze...hehehe, maze? This is a big unexpected gain. 】
After [Malves] and Yan Haoyan finished talking about the next plan, she happily discussed the method of conquering the maze because of the unexpected gain of the maze not far from the royal capital, thinking that the strongest one in that maze was The existence is only about level 300 at most, so I started to prepare other things.
He would never have thought that the existence in that maze that he was about to become his enemy was not some rare maze holder, but that even gods and demons could not easily touch him, and he could even fight back for certain things. , the [heresy] who is not afraid of gods and demons at all.
