The Main Heroines are Trying to Kill Me C.270: Total War

Total War

Heuheung

Ruby-colored eyes met azure-colored eyes.

What brings you here? Ms. Disciple of the Magic Tower Master?

Among the two girls glaring at each other for a while, Ruby spoke first.

What urgent matter brings you here on your own feet like this I mean, what could make you come find me?

Eyes narrowed like a crescent moon, Ruby asked as her expression changed a bit. Glare, who had been glaring at her fiercely, replied.

I want to talk with you alone.

Pardon?

So, please send anyone unrelated out.

Roswyns eyes widened, and she mumbled timidly.

I-Im also related in

However, she couldnt finish her sentence.

Ugh

Two things kept her from speaking: the fear of not knowing what might happen if she didnt leave and her doubts about whether someone like her had the right to claim any connection to him.

W-wouldnt I just become a burden if I stay? But what about that little girl? She is even younger than me

Hurry!

Ehack!

Glare pushed a trembling Roswyn out of the door, making her lose balance and tumble outside.

Go downstairs to the first floor!

Hey

As Glare turned her head toward her, Roswyn handed over the scrolls with a pale and terrified expression. However

I also have plenty of those! I can use magic without scrolls! Its dangerous here, so please go downstairs!

Ah

Thud!

Glare glanced briefly at it and closed the door forcefully.

Crackle

M-Master said to do it this way W-Well, its done.

After sealing the entrance with a clumsy but powerful spell, she took a deep breath and turned around.

Oh my youre so cute

To her surprise, Ruby suddenly stood up from the bed and approached her.

Youre the first brat Ive seen who wants to destroy herself this badly after Frthe Hero

The Heros enemy.

Yes, thats right. I am, indeed, the enemy and old rival of the Hero.

Ruby had exposed her true self.

You must already know what kind of being I am, right?

Her eyes were still shining with ruby-red color, and two hornsone of which was damagedwere slowly extending from her head. Next, wings sprouted from her back, and a swaying tail emerged behind her.

It was unmistakably the appearance of someone from the demon race.

And if anyone had even a slight interest in the history of the empire, they would have recognized that the form Ruby had assumed was that of a being who could be considered the king among the demon race.

The Demon King

Glare had diligently studied history to assist her savior, the Hero.

I cant believe I have to show my true form to a woman

Ssk

Oh my, are you trying to break my horns again?

With a coy demeanor and a gently swaying tail, Ruby swiftly slapped Glares hand when she reached out quietly.

Syasyak

The horns on her head disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Tsk.

Glare, frowning, quietly assumed a combat stance.

So, what brings you here?

While continuing to gaze at Glare affectionately, the Demon King asked in a low voice.

Did you come because you wanted to see me?

I came to prevent innocent sacrifices.

Hmm?

Werent you trying to kill the woman who was here just a moment ago?

When Glare asked this question with an uncharacteristically fierce expression, Ruby smirked and mumbled.

It seems like you have a way to monitor my every move?

Ugh.

Glare flinched involuntarily.

Indeed Act tough all you want, but youre still a brat.

The Demon King whispered in a low voice.

I acknowledge your potential and magical power, but you still are far too lacking in experience.

Shut up. Dont be quick to judge

Just the fact that you came here now should be enough for judgment, dont you think?

When Ruby said that, Glare tilted her head.

You havent met the Hero yet, have you?

No, Ive already met

You lie.

Ruby interrupted Glares attempt to answer, looking at her with a cold gaze as she spoke.

If you had met the Hero you wouldnt have come here alone.

What do you mean by that?

When Glare cautiously asked that, Ruby smiled with a chilling grin. The atmosphere around the Demon King had changed a bit.

He would have detailed the danger I pose to you.

..!

Suddenly, a complex magic circle appeared around the Demon King.

Do you think you can make fun of me just because one of my horns was cut?

Shut up your trap

Glare sweated nervously as she observed the unfamiliar spell. She couldnt recognize it with her magical prowess. Let alone withstand the attack now, she wasnt even sure she could have defended herself against it with her master present. She eventually raised her hand.

Tak!

Crash!

When she snapped her hand, one of the unknown spells surrounding the Demon King shattered.

Did you just destroy the magic itself?

It turns out youre quite impressive! Even this body cant do that. What in the world is your actual identity?

The Demon King was smiling with joy.

But theres a weakness in that ability of yours.

Glare, however, didnt have the luxury to smile like Ruby.

That ability doesnt matter, as it can only destroy one target at a time.

Ugh.

Glare frowned at that statement.

Kugwagwagwagwa!!!

The Demon Kings spells began activating one after another.

Heaaaaab!!

At the same time, rushing toward the Demon King, Glare gathered mana in her hand and shouted.

I can also cast magic just as much as I want!

Magic circles appeared around Glare.

The magic circles she had created with her innate talent were so complex that even most adult mages would have taken over an hour to create something similar.

And, after all

Zzap! Zzzip!

She stared directly at the Demon King and spoke as she watched her magic circles activate and emit powerful light.

I dont think you can attack me, can you?

At the same time, lasers shot out from Glares magic circles, all aimed at the Demon King.

Kugwagwagwang!

As a result, there was a massive explosion in the empty hospital room.

Cough, cough.

Ruby and Glarewho should not resort to physical attacks against others had set up protective barriers and soundproofing spells to keep the hospital room intact. However, they could do nothing about the lingering smoke and dust cloud.

Ugh

And the sounds of coughing and groaning

H-how could

Pfft Hehehe

Unlike last time, Glare inevitably plunged to the floor.

Cough

Covered in bruises, Glare quietly lifted her head to gaze at the Demon King, blood trickling from her mouth,

Why? You cant understand what just happened?

With a smile, Ruby pointed to herself.

Even if I do this?

..!

Layer upon layer of spells become visible on her body.

They were similar to the many complex spells that had been around the Demon King before.

Could it be

Its just a simple reflection spell, isnt it? I just twisted elementary magic into the language of the demon race.

Only then did Glare realize what had happened, and her eyes began to tremble.

Therefore, I didnt attack. I was just defending. Even a reflection is a legitimate defense, my dear.

Ruby spoke in a teasing manner to Glare.

Besides, I didnt aim the reflection directly at you; I simply caused random deflections. You just happened to get hit by that blind attack.

Egeuk

Well, thats it. Thats why you should have attacked. As you know, unless I use tricks like this, I cant attack you.

With a shrug, Ruby looked at Glare and spoke as if she was mocking her.

So, its time for you to go home, you brat.

Dont make me laugh

Or you can submit to me and become my subordinate.

Glares eyebrows twitched upon hearing those words.

Its your second chance, which even the Hero hasnt received yet. Accept it before its too late.

.

Ruby, who spoke to Glare gently, added with a cold expression.

Do you think the Hero can win against me?

Along with the cynical tone, a system window appeared in front of Glare.

Helper System

< The Probability of The Hero and Allies Beating the Demon King (Current) >

[0%]

Glare glanced at the number that hadnt changed since the night she had first awakened the Helper System.

Helper System

< The Probability of The Hero Winning After Successfully Awakening the Armament While Facing Death Together with the Demon King is [50%] (Subject to Real-Time Fluctuations). >

< The Probability of The Hero Achieving a Happy Ending >

Things like that arent my concern.

Without paying attention to the text below, she muttered in a low voice.

Because Im going to defeat you.

Glare, with a fierce expression, once again rushed at the Demon King.

Puhehehe

Watching Glare acting like that, the Demon King calmly smiled and mumbled in a low voice.

As expected, its easy to handle kids.

And so, the long and fierce battle between Glare and the Demon King began.

Meanwhile, in the vast courtyard of the church.

Hm-hm~! Hm-hm~!

Ferloche was strolling while carrying a backpack and with a dove on her shoulder, humming to herself.

Today~! The weather is so lovely!!

She shouted like that even though there was no one around.

Its such a wonderful day for a walk!

Gugu.

Hng? Gugu?

Suddenly, Gugu, on her shoulder, started pecking at Ferloches forehead.

Gu!

Ouch, ack. You cant do that! It hurts! Ack.

Gugu!!

I-Im your owner! I can also peck you back!

In broad daylight, facing Gugus attack, Ferloche closed her eyes and raised her fingers in a bird-like beak gesture. She began to fight the bird by swinging them.

Ah.

Suddenly, she opened her eyes wide.

Gugu.

Im sorry

With a gentle smile, Ferloche started stroking Gugus head.

Gulp.

She swallowed saliva, and her face tensed considerably as she headed somewhere.

Ms. Ferloche, why are you here?

Saintess, its dangerous here

She was heading to the underground chamber of the church.

I have something to attend to here for a moment!

It was an underground chamber that no one had ever come nearby after she and Frey had entered, and the entrance was now under the management of the bishops.

Saintess, what kind of business do you possibly have to attend to in this place

Gugu!

As the bishop who managed the entrance approached with a somewhat troubled but benevolent smile, Ferloche smiled brightly and spoke to Gugu on her shoulder.

Extract the soul.

Gu!

She wore a facial expression that no one had seen before, and then she slowly moved toward the entrance to the underground chamber.

Kugugugugu

As if the underground chamber welcomed her, it began to shake violently.
