19 – Scheduled Despair [Regret] – 8

Warrior, Bill.

He obviously poured out all his strength and crashed into the demon lord.

He tried to kill the Demon King while releasing the true power of the holy sword, even that power, as written in ancient literature.

I hoped that this attack would surely defeat the demon king.

By the way…

The Demon King blocked Bill’s attack.

It didn’t even take much effort.

It was so easy, it was so easy to block it as if it was an attack.

As if dealing with a child’s toy knife, he blocked it so easily.

‘This is ridiculous…’

And even broke the holy sword.

A legendary holy sword that has been used by countless warriors for hundreds of years and has defeated countless demon lords.

Even though it was used like that, the holy sword that didn’t even have a single scratch was smashed so easily.

‘I’m sorry…’

The current situation was desperate.

Even though I poured everything, I couldn’t reach the demon king. In addition, even the holy sword was broken.

There will be no turning back now, Bill realized that there was no chance of defeating the demon king anymore.

I tried to deny reality somehow, but…

He couldn’t deny the reality that was already right in front of his nose.

The hero was defeated by the demon king. I can’t even use a single hand, and it’s overwhelmingly due to the difference in skill.

Let’s intuit the reality like that, Bill faced the strength of the demon king.

He couldn’t help but realize everything.

‘I’m not weak…’

At first, Bill thought he was weak. Come to think of it, it’s only been a week since I became a hero.

He thought he lost because he couldn’t properly unlock the power of the holy sword.

I just thought that I lost to the demon king because I was weak.

But if you think about it a little, you can see that this is not the case.

The true power of the Holy Sword, and just knowing how to unlock that power, he possessed considerable heroic talent.

Considering that among the heroes in the ancient texts, about half of those who have not unlocked their power, his aptitude as a hero can be said to be at least higher than average.

This was undeniably true.

But still, the reason why Bill lost to the devil, the answer to that was so simple.

It was an easy answer if you think about it for a bit.

‘This demon king is so strong…’

It was simply because this demon king was so strong.

This Demon King was so strong that even a fairly talented hero could not defeat him even if he unlocked the true power of the holy sword.

This result happened because it was so strong.

‘It’s not just a seal.’

So, there was no doubt that Bill and the princess had misjudged from the beginning.

They scolded Rag, saying, ‘Did you only seal it?’

Without knowing the reality of this demon king, he despised him based on other demon kings in the past.

It was like saying something without really knowing anything.

I was able to realize it because I saw it, experienced it, and felt it.

But now, this demon king is on a different level from those demon kings.

It was a very distant, distant existence.

‘It was just sealed…’

In terms of this demon lord, even sealing it might be a miracle.

No, I don’t even know how it was sealed in the first place.

I couldn’t imagine the picture of this demon lord being defeated…

But that’s what Rag did.

It was only now that I had to realize it again. He was not a warrior to be despised.

He was a true world hero.

‘What the hell am I doing…’

And he was the villain of the world.

Ignoring the achievements he had worked hard for, he released the seal of the demon king thinking that he could do better.

This catastrophic demon king.

In addition, he broke and ate the holy sword.

At this rate, even if Rag becomes a hero again, he won’t be able to defeat the demon lord because he doesn’t have a holy sword.

The situation was not a problem that could be solved just by dying alone.

This was an issue that was never covered for any reason.

‘Where did it go wrong?’

Bill finally knew everything for sure.

Knowing that fact, the feeling I felt was regret.

Was it wrong to try to unseal the demon king in the first place?

Or was it wrong that he tried to become emperor?

Also, was it my fault for not acknowledging Lag’s achievements?

Or is everything wrong?

I couldn’t properly answer him.

However, what is certain is that Bill was feeling regret.

‘Damn it… This is the end.’

However, that feeling would be too late.

Anyone could see that he had already lost, and everything had already ended.

Bill had given up on everything.

“Keukssok… kill it.”

But I had no intention of begging for my life.

Bill sat down on the spot, looked up at the demon king and said.

His eyes did not contain the ‘will to fight’, but he did not abandon his ‘belief’.

Bill looked straight at the demon king and said.

If there’s nothing else to do, I’m telling you to quickly end this silly skit.

“Aren’t you begging for your life?”

Seeing Bill like that, the demon king smiled as if he was laughing.

The demon king’s words that he spat out as if mocking him while taking the leisure of a winner.

“I’m a warrior too. I don’t do that.”

At those words, Bill let out his will.

He was actually a warrior, even though it was only for a short time. It can’t be said that he had a lot of responsibility and a sense of mission as a hero, but even so, it wasn’t a small one.

And before that, he was the leader of the knights and a knight. He always fought to the death.

In addition, as an ambitious person who aimed for the emperor, he had been facing the crisis that he could die at any time.

He had a determination for death, and he had his own pride.

Of course, that doesn’t mean I’m not afraid of death, but I didn’t mean to beg for my life ugly or something like that.

‘Yeah… let’s have a clean ending.’

Also, even if he begged for his life anyway, the opponent was the demon king.

Bill didn’t know that he would never let him live, so he made this judgment.

In fact, in a way, this kind of death was the only thing Bill could do against the demon king.

“Hmm. I see.”

At Bill’s words, the demon king nodded.

She, too, seemed to have no intention of stopping Bill’s choice of death.

I affirmed his death like a demon king,

“If you want death that much, Jim will give it to you.”

He intended to give death as he wished.

The Demon King raised his hand wide.

Then, like a madman’s knife to slash death row inmates, he cut Bill’s throat, and soon Bill’s neck fell off.

That was Bill’s death.

But…

“yes…?”

Obviously, that’s how Bill died.

The excruciating pain he felt in his own neck right now, it was definitely the pain when his throat was cut.

Yet he was alive. No, it wasn’t just alive, it was attached to the neck.

As if he never died.

As if the reality he must have experienced was a dream, his body was completely unscathed.

Bill couldn’t understand the situation.

“What… what is it? Is it a dream? Is it a fantasy?”

Obviously he was dead. This was undeniably true.

Even so, he couldn’t figure out why he was still alive, or what the reason was.

Bill examined his body with a bewildered expression, then raised his head and looked up at the demon king.

“Keuk-kuk…”

And seeing Bill like that, the demon king showed the smile he had once shown.

Seeing such a demon king, Bill felt it right away.

It’s clear what the devil did.

“Didn’t you wish for death?”

And Bill’s prediction came true.

The Demon King told Bill as if he knew everything.

And he said it as if he had nothing to do with what Bill was going through.

‘What have you done?’

What the hell are you going through?

What is the demon king trying to do to himself?

Still not knowing anything and not being able to understand, Bill just stared blankly at the demon king.

“Kwaaak!”

Meanwhile, another death came to him.

This time, Bill was killed by fire magic, fire magic from the hands of the devil.

Writhing in pain, he would have been burned to death.

I thought this would kill Bill, but…

“uh…?”

By the way, the moment I thought he was dead, he was alive this time too.

The body was so clean, as if it had never died.

There was obviously a terrible pain, but everything was like déjà vu again.

‘Stop… no way?’

At this point, Bill couldn’t help but slowly notice.

As for how this happened…

Undoubtedly, the demon king killed himself.

If Bill’s predictions were correct, he was killing them and then bringing them back to life.

“Now… wait… why the hell are you doing this to me?”

What the hell kind of psychopath is this?

Bill was astonished.

I had no choice but to step backwards, look up at the demon king, and question why he was doing this to me.

I couldn’t understand what the hell I was doing wrong.

“Isn’t death what you want? I’m just giving you what you want.”

However, it was soon understood.

The expression of the demon king trying to give Bill another death.

The expression on her face as she brought death to Bill was like that of a child playing while killing bugs.

“Kuh… Kwaaa!!!!”

She’s just for her own fun.

I was just playing with Bill.

An hour passed.

“Heh… hehehehe… I don’t want to die anymore.”

However, the time Bill went through was not just an hour.

Bill has already experienced thousands of different deaths.

“I… I was wrong…”

It would not be an exaggeration to say that this one hour was longer than any other time for him.

It was a very painful time.

“So please kill me. Please…”

That’s why I really wanted to end this time.

Bill was on his knees begging the demon lord.
