𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝟖𝟕: 𝐑𝐞𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐨
“Ugh. . .”
ㅤ
When I figured out the true identity of that bird-like creature, I couldn’t help but let out a groan of disgust.
It was three humans.
Three men and women with wings like angels sprouting from their backs.
One man and two women.
The man’s face is incredibly familiar, and the two women are also familiar.
This is the worst.
I can’t believe these people have made an appearance here.
First, I quickly hide the Automata in the shadows.
And then, right in front of the hiding the Automata, they flew past the fortress at super high speed and launched an attack on the dragon.
ㅤ
“《Photon Blade》!”
“Whoa?! Who, who are you?!”
ㅤ
The dragon is blown away by a surprise attack.
The dragon seems to have avoided a direct hit by quickly using its forelegs as a shield, but it still seems to have taken considerable damage.
Even the attack of the commander using true equipment did not do much damage.
ㅤ
“《Flame Sword》!”
“《Wind Burst》!”
ㅤ
Next, the two women who came along launched a follow-up attack.
A fiery slash and an explosion of wind.
But, their power is extraordinary.
They both easily surpass the maximum firepower of the grandpa zombie.
This is not a joke.
Even their followers can do this much.
ㅤ
“Noaaaaa?!”
ㅤ
The dragon that took all of this damage groaned as it took further severe damage.
But it doesn’t seem to be fatal.
The dragon’s HP auto recovery skill Lv is extremely high, and I don’t think it will die soon.
But, judging from the current offense and defense, the dragon’s chance of winning is slim.
That’s how strong they are right now.
ㅤ
“A, Are you . . .”
ㅤ
The one who landed at the commander’s position, turning back at the commanders with a face with a scar left on the left eye.
And then, he opened his mouth heavily.
ㅤ
“We are the Hero Party.”
ㅤ
It was a quiet voice.
Yet heavy, powerful, gave me goosebumps.
It’s a terrible feeling.
Just like when facing the Demon Lord, a sense of a strong opponent.
I felt such a sense of pressure from them now.
ㅤ
“And I am the [Hero]. Hero Shindou. I am the one who will eventually defeat the Demon Lord and end this war.”
ㅤ
Words that sound cool.
In Japan, these words would either be laughed at for being too painful, or people would seriously worry about his mental state.
But I couldn’t laugh.
I felt chills.
My instinct, which has gotten me through many deadly situations, is ringing alarm bells.
If I bare my fangs to him now, to this Shindou, it would be seriously dangerous.
ㅤ
“Leave this to us. Ivy-san! Emma! Let’s go!”
“Yes!”
“Okay!”
ㅤ
So, Shindou and his party charged towards the dragon again.
With a shining sword, the hero and his companions fighting to defeat the evil dragon.
It’s a picturesque scene.
Seeing that, the morale of the humans skyrocketed.
When the commander shouts “Follow the Hero!”, the soldiers begin to push back the army of the Demon Lord with a roar.
As if, from this place and time, the counterattack of humanity is beginning.
ㅤ
Don’t be ridiculous.
ㅤ
I won’t let things go as they please.
I won’t let them have a dramatic turnaround.
After all, if the Demon Lord’s army loses, I might become the next target.
When the Demon Lord’s army loses, I want humanity to weaken so much that they can’t afford to bother with me.
ㅤ
With that in mind, I start taking action.
Should I try to contact the Demon Lord first?
…No, let’s not.
I can’t bear it if she tells me to seriously cooperate with the dragon.
ㅤ
If that’s the case, we’ll just have to think of another plan.
However, first and foremost, we must accomplish our original goal.
The hero slayer that won’t be an easy task to deal with must be postponed.
Our current target is these guys.
ㅤ
I use the teleportation function to send two zombies around the Automata.
They are the zombie-sensei and the stealth zombie.
The strategy is to boshoot into the boss room with undetectable teleportation.
I’m going to use this golden combo, like I did to Maki and Ken.
ㅤ
The target is all the humans on this fortress upper floor.
ㅤ
“《Floor Teleport》.”
“What, what is this?!”
ㅤ
The zombie-sensei’s secret move, Spatial Magic which can teleport a wide range at once is activated.
This time, the number of people transported was about 50, including the commander.
As a result of activating such a large spell, the zombie-sensei’s MP was exhausted, so I send her back with the stealth zombie and let her rest.
ㅤ
Then, towards the confused crowd suddenly transported into darkness, I release a super-enhanced laser beam.
ㅤ
[Gyaaaaaaa?!]
ㅤ
With that one blow, nearly half disappeared, and I was able to deal a significant blow to the remaining half.
Those who lost parts of their bodies due to the heat of the laser beam roll around groaning in pain.
I finish them off with another trap.
The remaining are a little more than 10, including the commander.
The first attack could not have been more successful.
ㅤ
“Don’t panic! Light up!”
“Yes! 《Light Ball》!”
ㅤ
Thanks to the commander’s order, who barely kept his calm, one of the soldiers used a light magic to illuminate the surroundings.
Then, the whole picture of the floor is revealed.
ㅤ
“W, Where is this…?”
ㅤ
There was a floor about 100 meters in diameter, which has become a little wider than before.
The floor, walls, and ceiling were all covered in traps, and the room was filled with poisonous mist.
It’s a place where many intruders have lost their lives in the past.
That’s right.
This is not the boss room on the second floor.
It’s the boss room, the deepest part of the dungeon.
ㅤ
And, at the back of that room, there stands a single armored boss monster.
ㅤ
This is my strongest force.
The strongest monster in this dungeon and its last guardian.
The Living Armor-senpai.
Moreover, this time it’s also filled.
ㅤ

“Welcome, die.”
ㅤ
I’m inside.
My main body, wearing the Living Armor-senpai, announces the death penalty to the invaders with a flat voice like an automata and swings the sword held in its right hand.
