Chapter 11 – The Most Powerful Demon King in History. Saves The Hero Sapling
I’m surprised, not that the sword is broken, but that Lumiel is shocked.
『Did she believe that was a treasured sword…』
『This Hero has no discerning eyes!』
Jorm says with some joy.
For Jorm, the Hero is a natural enemy, so there’s nothing to be done.
Even with her sword broken, Lumiel does not try to escape.
Despite being an elf who is proficient at magic, she thrusts a broken sword at the Orc Lord instead of using magic.
『Sure enough, she looks like a Hero, just as Jorum said.』
『Heroes cannot use ordinary magic, can they?』
The amount of magic power Lumiel has is tremendous, even by the standards of the elven race.
With that much magic, you can become a first-class mage.
Unless you’re a Hero, that is.
Heroes use powerful unique magic. In exchange, they can’t use any other magic.
And, perhaps, Lumiel is unaware that she is a Hero. She doesn’t know how to use her unique magic.
『Well then, shall we go help the Hero sapling?』
『Huh? Why? I never.』
『Jorm, I know she’s a natural enemy. But she hasn’t done anything wrong, has she?』
『Nevertheless…』
『This is the first person I have come across since my reincarnation. These encounters should be cherished.』
In this case, the term “person” does not mean a human, but a generic term that includes demon, elf, and dwarf as well.
『Eeer, I will abide by His Majesty’s decision.』
『Thank you for your understanding. Also Jorm, things will get complicated if you speak, so please keep quiet.』
If he speaks human language, he will be revealed to be a special dragon.
“Kyuru“
Jorm looked dissatisfied, but seemed to obey.
As I slowly walked over to Lumiel, the Orc Lord was still attacking fiercely.
Lumiel dodged it with all her might, holding up her broken sword.
『She should be running by now. . . is she an idiot?』
Jorm muttered in a bemused tone.
I think it’s stupid too. But I also thought she was a Hero.
And I don’t dislike that kind of stupidity.
So I approached slowly without hiding my presence.
Just as I was about to call out to her, Lumiel shouted.
“You there, boy! Run away! This is a very dangerous monster!”
The Orc Lord seemed to have noticed me as well.
He stopped attacking and stared at me.
“Don’t worry about me. Your sword is broken, why don’t you run away?”
“…… Please run while I’m holding it back! Go over there, there will be people there to protect you!”
“Hmm.”
Maybe she didn’t run away to keep the Orc Lord from heading towards the people who were over there.
“Don’t worry about me. You can run if you want.”
“But!”
“You can’t use magic, can you? Then with your sword broken, you’d better run away.”
“…………”
Even if I say it’s okay to run away, it seems Lumiel’s personality won’t allow her to run.
Since I have no choice, I decide to defeat the Orc Lord.
“I have no personal grudge against you, but please die.”
“UGAAAAAA!”
The Orc Lord swung its huge club at me as I approached.
I don’t dodge, I take it head on.
“Hii.”
Lumiel screamed, as if she thought I was dead.
“That’s why I told you not to worry.”
I catch the club with my left hand.
And with my right hand, I pierced through the Orc Lord’s body.
Take out the heart and crush it.
“Orcs have high vitality, so it’s best to behead them or crush their heads, or hearts.”
“…… a, amazing.”
“If you can’t use magic, at least prepare a better sword. That sword is too dull.”
I at least gave her some advice and decided to leave.
Lumiel is a Hero. The next time we meet, we might be enemies.
That’s interesting.
“U, uhm!”
“What’s the matter?”
“My name is Lumiel Ortoville! What is yours?”
Come to think of it, I hadn’t introduced myself.
She introduced herself before the battle with the Orc Lord, so I know her name, but she didn’t know mine.
“It’s Hyrum, I’m a commoner.”
“A human with such strength… you must have been trained tremendously.”
“…… Well…… what can I say? That’s how it is.”
Even if I claim to be reincarnated, I’m not sure if she would trust me or not.
After all, no one in history has successfully reincarnated into the human race.
“I owe you my life, Mr. Hyrum. I shall never forget this kindness.”
“Do forget it.”
“I can’t do that!”
“Then, tell me about this country, about this era, in other words, common sense.”
“Common sense, is it?”
“I’ve been in the mountains since I was born, in the middle of nowhere, and I just came out.”
That wasn’t a lie at all.
I was born in the mountains earlier, and I just came out.
“You have special circumstances, don’t you?”
“That’s right. Actually, I don’t know the name of this country or what kind of system it has.”
“I understand. I’ll tell you anything I know!”
With this, we can now procure new information.
