"Wow, I really didn’t expect you to actually come here."
Alaric walked in, pretending to look surprised.
"How can I refuse when the prey is offered to me?"
The Demon King snorted, then took out a letter.
Yes, it was a letter of challenge sent by The King to the Demon King.
Alaric kept a faint smile, but his eyes couldn’t hide the large amount of murderous intent that could explode at any moment.
"Get up, you piece of shit."
"That throne is not for you."
"What if I don’t want it?"
The Demon King smiled provocatively.
"This throne belongs to the king of the Dicathen kingdom, and I am in the body of the prince of this kingdom. That means this throne now belongs to me."
Despite saying that, the demon king still stood up.
It wasn’t because he was afraid.
It was because how could he fight if he was sitting on a throne?
The demon king’s obsidian armor looked heavy, but his every movement looked extremely calm.
It was as if he was just wearing a t-shirt.
Or not wearing anything at all.
That letter of challenge slowly burned to ashes.
At the same time, a sword the same color as the demon king’s armor had appeared in his hand without anyone noticing.
Smiling, Alaric also pulled out the sword from his waist.
It wasn’t an ordinary sword.
It was the sword that the hero Dix, The King of the previous life, used to conquer the demon race.
After many years, this sword was in a state that couldn’t be worse.
A single clumsy strike could have completely broken the blade.
Nevertheless, after spending a large sum of money to repair it, it became better than it had been thousands of years ago.
And today, Alaric would use this sword to kill the demon king.
Bringing glory and eternal peace to humanity.
A proud and fearless smile.
"Oh... It seems you have changed, Dix."
The demon king raised his eyebrows in amusement.
"I thought you would tremble so much that you couldn’t even hold your sword when facing me. But I guess I was wrong."
Alaric just shrugged his shoulders lightly.
He looked indifferent and calm.
The Demon King nodded, seeming to understand, although in truth he didn’t care about any of the words that came out of The King’s mouth.
"Alright, we’ve had enough nonsense."
Alaric’s expression became serious.
At the same time, he also immediately took a fighting stance.
This would be the most fierce battle The King had ever encountered in his life.
This would be a battle where he would have to give it his all to win.
This would be a battle where Alaric could lose and die.
But, he had no regrets or fear.
Because The King had an unshakable faith.
He believed that he would win.
The next moment, Alaric’s eyes flashed with a sharp, bloodthirsty light.
His body and sword were both covered in a golden aura.
The color of luck and victory.
It was time to end everything.
Both the demon king and the King disappeared from the battlefield.
Leaving no traces behind.
As if they had never existed at all.
Then, the two swords clashed with each other.
During his last conversation with Prince Erza, or rather Kaelus, Alaric had thrust a letter into his hand.
It was a letter of challenge specifically for the demon king.
The King knew that he would have to confront him no matter what.
So, instead of going through the trouble of looking for the demon king, he decided to meet him at a certain location.
The castle of the Dicathen Kingdom.
The place where the demon king was reborn.
And it would also be the place where he would close his eyes forever.
And why was Alaric so sure that the Demon King would come?
"Because he wanted to destroy all the great threats first."
Since the Demon King had been reincarnated into Erza’s body, of course he would inherit the prince’s memories.
If not, it would be fine too.
Because the letter had the name Dix in the sender section.
The Demon King would definitely recognize this name.
He would never forget it.
It was the name of the one who had caused the demon race to lose miserably to humanity.
One of the seven greatest enemies of the demon race.
So, he would definitely come.
And the moment he saw the Demon King in the throne room, Alaric knew that his bet was right.
Now, all that remained was to rely on his strength.
The entire hope of humanity rested on the shoulders of a single person.
Like two beasts that knew only how to kill and kill, Alaric and the demon king charged at each other.
The two continuously launched vicious attacks that were no less than their opponents.
Creating numerous shockwaves that were powerful enough to blow away the curtains and windows in this throne room.
Tiny sparks were also continuously produced at a dizzying speed.
Many of them accidentally fell onto the curtains and carpets nearby, creating a small, unnoticeable fire.
But very quickly, that fire would spread.
Wide enough to cover the entire castle.
And strong enough to turn everything into ashes.
But despite that, The King and the demon king still did not pay any attention. For origınal chapters go to noveⅼfire.net
The two seemed to be in a separate world.
A world where all they could think about was to make their opponents die as quickly as possible.
The two of them could be said to be evenly matched.
But, the more they fought, the more Alaric felt that something was wrong.
"This is not good..."
He muttered, then jumped back.
Keeping a certain distance from his opponent.
Then, The King’s gaze swept over the Demon King’s entire body.
He clicked his tongue.
It had been a while since the battle began, and although the two of them were on par with each other in strength, their defenses were vastly different.
The Demon King was still completely fine.
It was all thanks to his insanely tough armor.
Thanks to it, his body couldn’t be injured at all.
Alaric glanced at his own body.
"Although I’m protected by an aura, compared to that armor, this is nothing."
And as a result, his body had a few scratches.
Although they weren’t too serious, if the number continued to increase, the situation would become very bad.
It didn’t take long for the King to realize that if he wanted to be sure of victory, destroying that armor was a must.
But, to do so, he would need insane power.
That would be quite difficult for Alaric, whose fighting style was to use technique to achieve the greatest effect.
However, it was not impossible.
"It’s time for a change."
