I’m Not That Kind of Talent - Chapter 315

315. The second battle has begun, XX (4) No matter

how much food you have piled up like a mountain and plenty of arrows, it is all useless unless you have a magic suppressor.

‘It’s the same even if there is a hero.’

Nothing will change unless the heroes gather here. I don’t know how Deon found out the location of the main axis, but since they found out about it, Rweche’s defeat is almost certain.

Instead of the soldiers who were still unconscious from the shocking situation, D’Vellania, who blocked the attack of the hero who was at the forefront with a tightly stretched thread, grinned as she wrapped around the opponent’s weapon and pulled it.

“hi-?”

“….”

The opponent, who immediately gave up his weapon and retreated, picked up a sword lying nearby, probably because he judged that a long weapon such as a spear was at a disadvantage.

Develania jumped out of the path of the sword being swung and checked the thread installed in between.

“Why are you so proactive? “I’m going to die anyway.”

“….”

“Lweche lost. “You know?”

Your life line has disappeared. There is even an 11th corps here that specializes in magic. If we fight any further here, it will be a meaningless struggle.

For a moment, the sword in the opponent’s hand slowly lowered as if he lost energy. For a moment, determination appeared in his eyes and his hand holding the weapon gained strength.

“In that case, it would be less unfair to take at least the life of the corps commander.”

“…the momentum is good.”

Several corps members seem to have finally figured out their superior’s location and come this way. Develania ordered, playing with the thread in her hand without even looking at them.

“Find the king. “No need to bother, just bring the head.”

In the air, the hero and his gaze became entangled.

“It will interfere with the fight, so stay away.”

“All right.”

Corps members disappear. The hero’s movement to stop them was stopped by Develania.

Develania, who blocked the opponent and secretly set up another thread, smiled round and round, her eyes shining cruelly as if she was watching prey caught in a spider’s web.

“It hurts my pride that you turn a blind eye to me.”

“….”

“Hmm, are heroes really this quiet? I’m confident that I’ve met quite a few heroes so far, but it always seems like I’m the only one talking. “It’s like that right now.”

“…It’s only natural that if you mix words with the enemy, you will only incur losses.”

The guy who spoke slowly looked around busily. Seeing that he was mainly looking around the area where the seal was installed, he must have felt something strange, like a hero.

‘If you look at it like that, it won’t be visible in most cases.’

Let’s play somewhere.

Anyway, there will be some time left until news comes that the king’s head has been taken. Develania laughed lightly and rushed at the opponent.

….

The battle situation, which seemed tense at first glance, quickly tilted to one side as time passed, as the seemingly invisible gap became a big difference in the second half.

The 2nd Corps Commander’s attack was not clearly visible to the eye.

The hero, who took a step back due to an invisible threat, is startled and quickly stops walking. My body stumbled because of the sudden stop, but that wasn’t important. Instead of ducking back, he lowered his head to avoid danger and lowered his gaze. The invisible thread, I don’t know when it was installed, was digging into my Achilles tendon.

The demon Devellania saw this and laughed.

“It’s a shame, because if I had gone a little further back, I would have been cut.”

“….”

“After all, heroes are annoying.”

I have a good feeling.

That’s it. Once you have identified the location, you will not be caught twice. This is probably because the brain is also included in the realm of ‘talent’. He is truly a troublesome opponent.

‘What should I do?’

Should I play some more or end it here?

As I was rolling my eyes and thinking, a response came from the communication desk. Develania took out the communication stone with one hand and did not miss the opportunity to block the incoming attack by stepping on the end of the stretched thread and pulling it all the way to block the communication.

“uh. say.”

– We found the king. But….

pop.

Now that the King has been found, it is safe to say that the work is almost over. There’s nothing more to hear.

After quickly dodging the sword that cut diagonally from below as if cutting through the air, he put the broken communication stone back in his pocket and looked at the hero.

“I guess I should finish now.”

How long does it take from here to where Deonhart fights? I guess it wasn’t that far.

Thinking nonchalantly that did not fit the situation, I pulled the thread wrapped around my left little finger. The threads spread everywhere suddenly revealed their presence and bound the hero.

Solid red lines are engraved on not only the limbs but also the cheek and neck, as if they had been cut by something sharp. If you move too hard here, somewhere in your body will most likely be cut off.

“….”

As if he sensed death, the hero’s grip on the sword lost some strength.

Develania, who glanced at him in surprise at the sword he was holding to the end while looking as if he would lose it at any moment, immediately adjusted the thread connected to the opponent’s neck and held it.

“Maybe it’s because we gathered the heroes in a hurry… The quality of the heroes is definitely lower than before…” “

….”

“Well, it was still fun.”

I will admit your mental strength.

pulled the thread The hero’s head fell to the floor and there was a great commotion all around.

“…!”

The soldiers, who had been hesitant at the defeat of the hero they trusted, exchanged glances among themselves and attacked.

Rather than confronting them head-on, they attacked instead of running away, even though they knew they had no chance of winning when some of them got caught up in the battle between the hero and me earlier and died. It seems that Rweche’s military power has grown a lot, but it seems that this level of mental power can be compared to the imperial army in its heyday.

‘More than that…’

Develania raised her head as she casually swept away the enemies. From the sky, I saw Lirinel using magic to select and kill enemies.

Let’s see….

‘There are four heroes in each castle. I killed one of the dogs.’

The human sprawled at Lirinel’s feet seems to be a hero, so are there two left? Ah, I can see Idelia killing a hero in the distance. There is only one thing left now.

I picked up the communication seat.

“Idelia.”

– I’m busy. Why?

“Can I ask you to handle the remaining heroes? “There is only one left-.”

– Without you going yourself?

“I have work to do.”

After crossing the distance, I made eye contact with Idelia.

She looked at me intently for a moment as if trying to figure out my intention, but then she turned her head away. I answered roughly as I dealt with the rushing enemy.

– Well… okay.

“I don’t know where it is…”

– It must be the palace.

“As expected, I know.”

There is no way such a high-class manpower, a hero, would be absent from the king’s side. The remaining one will be there.

Communication was cut off and Idelia immediately began moving. Devellania, who was watching her back as she quickly left the place, soon lost sight of the other person, so he just rolled his eyes and looked up.

The finger with the thread moved and Lirinel quickly created a shield with magic.

Kagak!

“…!”

The sound of the shield being scraped echoed through the air.

“what…!”

I felt an ominous feeling for a moment and put up a shield, but it wasn’t an arrow or dagger. Something invisible was trying to harm me. This means that it is not an attack from the human side. Lirinel, who was unable to accept the situation for a moment and was looking blankly at the scratched spot in the shield, turned her head and looked at Develania. The cute face distorted violently as it faced the calm and weak expression.

“What are you doing now?”

“What are you doing?”

Develania grinned and snapped her fingers proudly.

“It’s about punishing a traitor’s stooge.”

***

Develania decided.

Deonhardt, who kills the legion commanders, is also guilty, as is the demon king who knew this but ignored it and covered it up. So, after much deliberation, she defined both Deonhart and the Demon King as enemies.

But what can he do against the two of them alone? Not only the Demon King, who is an untouchable being to the Demons, but even Deon Hart is a warrior, so it is impossible to deal with him alone.

So, I looked for people who might be dissatisfied with both the Demon King and Deonhardt.

‘The 8th and 10th Corps lost their commanders to Deon Hardt, and the 12th Corps commander lost his adjutant.’

It would be natural for them to have bad feelings toward Deon Hart, who killed his superior’s lieutenant, and they would also have bad feelings toward the Demon Lord, who just covered it up. Nevertheless, he must be holding back because the opponent is the ‘Devil Lord’.

DeVellania touched on those feelings. It wasn’t difficult to get a reaction.

[Have you made up your mind?]

[….]

[Well, coming here means that you’ve made up your mind. You know that there is no turning back once you have come this far, right?]

They arrived just in time when they were told to come to the warehouse if they have any thoughts.

[Then I will take it as a positive and explain it, so listen carefully.]

I listened to the plan in silence.

The purpose was very simple. ‘Killing the devil and the hero.’

The person who came representing the 8th Legion asked anxiously.

“I’m sorry, but is it really possible to kill the Demon Lord? To us, the Demon King is….”

“He is like a god. But it is possible now.”

In any case, he is negative, taking after the former commander of the corps.

What this guy needs is a definite answer. Develania spoke firmly.

“Did you know that the Demon King has recently begun to hide his magical powers?”

“…Now that I think about it….”

“Okay. Doesn’t there have to be a reason why someone who has never done anything like that from the moment I can remember is suddenly doing something he doesn’t do before? “It’s obvious that there could be a reason for that.”

no way.

“…mana…lack…?”

“answer. Usually, the Demon King had a tendency to use magical power excessively, but even though he used up 90% of his magical power while saving Deonhardt, he was unable to give up that habit. “It’s almost like it’s starting to become insufficient.”

No matter how much he is a demon lord, his magic power is not infinite.

And one of the reasons why the Demon King is revered is because of the overwhelming amount of magic that can be felt just by encountering him.

“It’s worth a try.”

A demon king without magic can be compared to a toothless tiger in the human world.

So, after telling them not to worry, Develania looked around at the gathered people as if he wanted to get to the point.

“The people who are most in the way of attacking the Demon Lord and Deonhardt are the Legion Commanders. “They are truly loyal to the Demon Lord and Deonhart.”

Even if the Demon King is like that, why is he loyal to Deonhardt?

For a moment, Develania frowned as if she couldn’t understand while thinking of Lirinel, then lightly swept each castle on the map with her fingertips.

“Well… Even so, the priority is to destroy the human world, so we should start by capturing the castle. It won’t be difficult. It won’t take that long. “This is the same as confirming and killing a castle that has already collapsed.”

“…How are you sure of that?”

“If there are a lot of heroes stationed there, most of them will be dealt with by Deonhardt here. “It would make more sense if we said that the main effort of the three countries was not used to defend the castle, but rather to kill Deonhardt.”

The gap is such that they have no choice but to win, so they won’t whine if they can’t even do that.

The representative of the 8th Corps and the guy representing the 10th Corps looked this way as if they had made a promise, and then set their eyes on the spot they had pointed at a moment ago. The location where Deonhardt plans to battle with the heroes.

Myers, the commander of the 12th Corps, who had been calculating the distance to each castle with his eyes set on that place, quietly opened his mouth.

“The distances from both castles are similar…”

“That’s right. So, that’s good. You don’t know which castle we will be assigned to, right? “We are choosing this as a gathering place.”

You have to come here to kill Deonhardt anyway.

“Then… is it okay if we take over the castle and gather here right away? “Let’s get together and deal with the legion commanders before confronting Deonhardt.”

“no. Make sure to kill the other corps commanders before moving on. “Right after the castle is taken, that’s when they will be most let down. Gathering is the next step.”
