"Here, the exit is not far now."
As the sixth executive continued to move forward, she glanced back with a satisfied smile.
"If you go forward from here, you'll see the headquarters. Just wait there for a moment. Don't go back; there may be all sorts of barriers and traps."
As we walked forward, Ruby and I soon began to quietly look at each other.
"Why are you standing next to me?"
"Of course, because I’m worried about you."
As I whispered softly, Ruby made a disgusted expression.
"Then why are you in front of me?"
"..."
"Could it be? Are you worried about me?"
I asked with a slightly mischievous expression, and Ruby just scowled and continued forward.
"Hm."
I slightly waved my finger, causing her already fast-beating heart to quicken even more.
Originally, I had to manipulate her heart itself, but now, it seemed much easier since I just needed to provide a driving force.
I wondered if she knew about that.
"What are you doing? Why are you not following me?"
She probably didn’t know.
If she did, she wouldn't react like that.
Despite her indifferent look, her expression and tone were strangely caring.
I could see it all no matter how much she tried to hide her expression.
"Phew, finally outside... huh?"
I wore a gentle smile as we came out of the secret exit, but the girl in front started widening her eyes.
"What, what-what's going on?"
The paladins and priests of the Church had already surrounded the area where we came out.
The number didn’t seem that large. They were probably called in hastily or just to buy time. But that was not important.
What was important was that our intrusion had been 'discovered' by them.
I thought the mana flow was strange, and it turned out to be true. Indeed, the Church was not an easy opponent to deal with.
If I had come alone, I might have had a hard time, even if I won in the end.
“There are so many pests crawling out lately.”
However, there was an outlier in front of me.
An overwhelming weapon that was the strongest in the current worldview.
Even though I sealed her magic power and she could only use one finger, it was more than enough.
- Crash...!
"Keuogh!!"
"Kek!?"
When Ruby waved her finger with a detached expression, the forces surrounding us started rolling on the ground with widened eyes.
"Huh? Huh?"
“You bitch, how dare you call this noble-self a slave.”
"Kyaack!?"
The girl, who was backing away with an incomprehensible expression, was lifted by Ruby, who grabbed her by the hair.
"Kueek!!"
Ruby stared at her for a while, then slammed her to the ground with all her might.
"Y-you...? How..."
“It’s too bothersome to explain. Just die.”
Her gaze was cold, and she lifted her foot.
That cold look... it was as if she regarded her as nothing more than a bug... No, she saw her as if she weren't even a living being.
I can't help but think that the look in her eyes that she gave me until now was rather well-mannered.
"Wait."
"...Hm?"
After looking at Ruby absent-mindedly for a moment, I quickly regained my senses and stopped her.
Essentially, the executives of the Church were, like Ruby, trashes who couldn’t be rehabilitated to the point where I didn’t care if they got beaten to death by Ruby. But we still need that girl.
"Why should I listen to your orders–"
"Because you’re kind?"
"..."
Ruby, who had a slightly rebellious expression, stopped talking as I gently stroked her abdomen and stared at me hesitantly.
It wasn't visible, but there was a slight blush on her cheeks.
- Smack!!
"Keheuk."
I struck her cheek with all my might. Right before the impact, Ruby closed her eyes tightly, and she stumbled to the ground, holding her cheek as she looked up at me.
"I told you to wait."
"..."
"Good girl, you did well."
Watching her, I didn’t know why, but I started thinking of Lulu, so I treated her as if I were treating Lulu, but it backfired.
"You disgusting bastard..."
Her heart stopped pounding, and her expression became fierce. It seemed she really disliked being treated like a pet.
It seemed like she still had some pride left.
Well, fine. To complete the plan, I needed to cater to the taste of our beloved Demon King.
"Just kidding, Ruby."
Withdrawing my hand from her head and taking Ruby's hand, I lifted and embraced her before kissing her forehead.
"I always love you."
- Thump, thump...
Then, Ruby's heart started pounding again.
Our Demon King seemed very weak to pure and one-sided love.
It was natural, since this action was poles apart from her, who was twisted and had never experienced or thought about such things.
"M-move aside."
- Chu...!
Slowly tousling Ruby's hair and rubbing my cheek against her neck, I kissed her neck and quietly lifted my head.
"Weird bastard."
Ruby, who stared at me intensely, mumbled something and shifted her steps.
Maybe the reason my nickname changed from crazy bastard to weird bastard was because of the mood.
"Huh? Ugh?"
- Crunch...!
"Kueeh..."
The girl looked at me with a gaze of complete confusion, unable to comprehend the scene unfolding in front of her, so I made her faint. Then, I picked her up before following Ruby quietly.
- Srk, srrrk...
"Okay."
The punk who had been following me for a while was still following me without knowing anything.
Stealth? Concealment? It was perhaps a special ability related to that category.
Anyway, it didn’t matter. Rather, this was good.
The manifestation of the Demon King's mana was tightly blocked.
Even if she was the Demon King, without her mana, she wouldn't be able to detect the guy I barely sensed by densely spreading my stellar mana.
"Why did you stop again?"
"No, it’s nothing."
Rather than slowly destroying her defense over time, it was better to constantly insert stimulating events in a short period of time to get the outcome that I want.
With little time remaining, there was no room to be picky.
"It's nothing, Ruby."
This could very likely disrupt the plan, but if executed correctly, it could also create quite an entertaining spectacle.

Not long after that, inside the headquarters of the Church.
"M-monster!!"
"What kind of power is this!!"
"I've heard enough of such words. Don't you have more interesting last words?"
Even though they had infiltrated quite deeply, Ruby still wore a calm expression as she swung her fingers absentmindedly. She looked back briefly at Frey, who quietly trailing behind her.
These fools. If it were me, I would aim for the rear.
These people undoubtedly couldn't make strategic judgments.
Wasn’t her rear empty?
She would aim for the rear if she were the one launching the raid.
The rear was always vulnerable.
Well, it doesn't matter.
With that thought in mind, Ruby soon lost interest and turned her head.
It was because, although he was not as powerful as herself, Frey was considered the second strongest. Therefore, Ruby thought he could handle things well on his own.
In fact, it was very strange to be concerned about Frey's safety and think, 'Frey will do well on his own’.
Ruby didn't notice her contradictory thoughts at all.
"T-there they are!"
"Catch them!"
"Tsk."
Ruby, who was quietly moving forward, scowled as she saw soldiers running towards her from a distance, shouting.
What foolish soldiers! Not only were they lacking the skills for an ambush, but they also exposed their positions.
If those cretins were part of the Demon King's army, they would have been purged long ago.

It was somewhat absurd that I have to launch ruthless attacks on those guys out of fear of revealing my malevolence.
Why do I have to deal with these good-for-nothings?
I'm the Demon King.
I should be plotting at the Academy right now.
Then why the hell...
- Crackle...!
"Pathetic."
The Demon King, who couldn't stand the swarm of soldiers pouring in like cockroaches, swung her hand and vigorously scratched the air as if wielding a sword.
- Boooom!!!
"Keegk!!"
"Kkweogh!!"
"Hm."
Suddenly, a thunderous noise echoed, and the swarming soldiers were swiftly defeated in an instant.
“That’s what happens when you don’t know your place.”
Ruby, who felt no more excitement than squashing ants, grumbled and tried to walk forward, when suddenly…
- Thud...!
Frey, who had been smiling, grabbed her shoulders.
"What do you want again..."
- Smack!!!
Ruby's cheek soon violently turned to the side.
"...."
Frey’s ear-piercing slap struck her cheek once again.
"I-it hurts."
"I told you not to overdo it because this place couldn’t collapse. There are hostages and kidnapped people here. And, why do you have to mass–"
"I said it hurts!"
Holding her stinging cheek, Ruby interrupted Frey's words with a dumbfounded expression, her gaze turning fiercely hostile.
"What does it matter if a few hostages die!"
"..."
"Leaving that aside, if you truly love me, then at least–"
- Swoosh...
"...Heut."
However, Frey just wrapped his arms around her waist and smiled softly.
It was a sight that Ruby had become all too familiar with over the past few days.
- Ssk...
"Heu, heuk..."
Frey's arms slowly withdrew.
Seeing that, Ruby automatically tensed her lower abdomen to brace for impact.
At the same time, a tingling and eerie sensation began to creep through Ruby's entire body.
- Rustle…
As her body trembled, Frey quietly lifted Ruby's top.
"Ha, huwaa..."
When Ruby's milky white belly shyly revealed itself, her breathing became heavier, and every nerve in her body became even more sensitive.
At this moment, Ruby's body was completely focused on what would happen next.
- Crash!!
"Kyaaaaaack!?"
After a few seconds, Frey's fist struck her lower abdomen.
Due to the impact, Ruby's body lifted off the ground, floating in the air, and her waist bent as if she was bowing politely.
- Crackle...
"Kueeeeek..."
Following the impact, the stellar mana in her belly sparked.
In this amazing harmony, Ruby, clutching her belly, sank to her knees, as tears and saliva streamed down her face.
The violence Frey inflicted on her this time was more severe than ever before.
W-what is this?
Thanks to that, Ruby, who couldn't recover from the shock for a long time, kneeled on the ground, bewildered, and muttered to herself.
What happened just now?
Until now, when she got hit, she only felt pain in her stomach and resented Frey.
- Chill…
However, from her belly, which was completely wrecked by the blow just now, an unfamiliar, chilling sensation different from pain was emanating.
- Thump, thump, thump...
And, before she knew it, her heart, which she had managed to calm down, was beating rapidly.
"Uh, uh?"
No matter how much she thought about it, it was a strange phenomenon that didn't fit the situation of being shamefully struck in the stomach, making her kneel.
It was as if she was satisfied with receiving such a blow?
But that would never be the case.
Absolutely not...
Wha-what is this?
Frantically shaking her head to clear her mind, Ruby, sweating coldly, started to analyze the situation.
Was this the outcome of the stellar mana that entered her stomach and the stellar mana in her heart playing such tricks?
However, he was incapable of using his mana for precise manipulation, right?
Then what was it?
Could it be that she unconsciously harbored such emotions?
N-no way.
It couldn’t be true. As someone who looked down on all living beings from above her throne, she wouldn't engage in such trivial matters, right?
That’s not it
Okay, to be honest, there had been a few times when she felt her heart flutter after seeing Frey.
Of course, it was not like she fell for his sweet talk or anything.
Frey was quite handsome, and she could at least understand about being captivated by his innocence and beauty, even wanting to ruin him.
After all, she was still a woman.
If a man you were infatuated with to the extent that you wished to ruin and break him repeatedly whispered his love for you, your heart would flutter a few times as well.
But… But wasn’t this a bit too much?
How could someone feel their heart flutter when they were getting hit in the stomach?
That was way beyond the realm of understanding.
As expected, there was something strange–
Wait.
Ruby, who had been desperately searching for a reason, widened her eyes in realization.
Could it be that he's doing this on purpose...?
Come to think of it, Frey always inflicted this kind of violence whenever her heart pounded.
If that was the case, perhaps...
Could the reason her heart was fluttering at this moment be due to some reflex?
Had Frey been training her like this without her realizing it?
"I-iiik...!"
Ruby began to let out an enraged groan.
At this rate, she was no different from a dog drooling at the sound of a bell.
It was an absolutely unacceptable and absurd thing to happen to the Demon King herself.
She had to stop him somehow…
"...Ha?"
In a moment of anger, Ruby lifted her head abruptly, and her pupils dilated.
Did he just...?
For a split second, Frey's expression and eyes clearly came into her view.
Sorrow, guilt, agony.
And strangely, there was also hope and longing.
The combination of all these aspects, as if he was expecting something, was completely different from the madness she had witnessed so far.
"Y-you... Is this also an act of affection?"
Because it was such a brief moment, Ruby asked again with a doubtful expression, facing the usual madness in his eyes.
"Is all this done for my sake? All of this horrible violence? Are you going to say it's all for a reason?"
"Of course."
As he said that, Frey warmly whispered, caressing her cheek.
"It was just a pure expression of my affection from the beginning. That's why the system didn't intervene."
"..."
"All these acts of affection are for you, and I'll continue to do so in the future."
After saying that, he quietly lowered his gaze and muttered to himself.
"...You may not understand, though."
Ruby’s ears perked up despite appearing to ignore Frey's words, and her gaze started to tremble.
.
.
.
.
.
"Once we pass through here, we should be able to reach the ruins located in the underground base, right?"
"..."
"The Pope or the Cardinal is probably there. Once we capture them, it will be game over."
Ruby, who had been silently leading the way for a while, calmly stopped upon hearing those words from behind her.
"Hmm."
Just as Frey said, there was a giant door in front of her.
Though complex magic was cast on it, from Ruby's perspective, it just seemed like a cheap tape put on to lock the door.
- Riiiiiip...!
Ruby effortlessly tore the barrier with her fingers, then she kicked the door open and stepped inside with a detached expression.
"Have you already reached this far? I can somewhat understand what that third bastard was saying."
Then, in her field of vision, appeared the Church’s second executive.
"But I won't just hand over the ruins to you."
Ruby simply gazed at the individual obstructing the entrance to the underground with the same detached expression on her face. Unfazed, she quietly continued forward.
"You should've watched your back!"
“I can’t believe I have to deal with something like this.”
The executive muttered in a meaningful tone to her, but Ruby paid no heed and continued walking.
There was Frey behind her anyway, and she was wondering what they would do if they made a surprise attack.
- Zaaaaap...!
"Huh?"
However, when something swiftly shot up right behind her, Ruby couldn't help but frown.
"Even the incompetent possess at least one talent, It seems."
She didn't know what the special ability was, but it seemed quite troublesome.
What was Frey doing, not even blocking something like this?
But still, there was no nervousness.
Although they did get ambushed, there was no sense of crisis because of the lack of danger.
"Be careful!!"
So, as she turned to face the assailant behind her.
- Whoosh!!
"...Huh?"
Frey urgently flew to her and embraced her.
"What...?"
Ruby fell to the floor with him, staring blankly at Frey, who was completely pale and desperate for some reason.
- Crack...!
"Cough!!"
"...Huh?"
As soon as she heard the sound of flesh being pierced, Frey spat out blood from his mouth, causing Ruby's eyes to widen in shock as she gasped.
"Heuhahaha!! That's why you shouldn't have been so confident in your abilities!! When we combine our abilities, we are invincible!"
"Hehe... He... Cough..."
With a dazed expression, Ruby’s gaze locked at Frey, who was vomiting blood but still smiling brightly in her arms.
I blocked it… this time.
"What..."
As she heard the words Frey had muttered internally through the mental transmission she had planted, her eyes widened, and her expression stiffened.
I’m glad...
As Frey slowly closed his eyes, Ruby silently turned her gaze to the executives.
"Well, now only the Hero remains?"
"Yes, let's take care of her quickly."
"..."
When Ruby heard those words, the color gradually began to disappear from Ruby's face.
.
.
.
.
.
At that moment, in the underground ruins.
"Do you really have a solution here that can turn the situation around?"
"Certainly. The Church didn't just choose this place as the headquarters of the Western Continent for no reason over the past millennium."
The Cardinal calmly replied to the tense question from the first executive as he descended the stairs, his robe trailing behind him.
"How in the world...?"
"With this, not only we can defeat both Frey and Ruby, but we also can conquer the Empire, and establish the Holy Nation."
"I-is that so?"
"That's right, so please calm down."
As the Cardinal spoke confidently and opened the entrance, the first executive, who had been visibly anxious, now began to relax. Forgetting that he wore a mask, he began wiping off the cold sweat off his forehead.
"But what's this?"
As he discovered a large inscription right next to the entrance, he raised his head and asked with a puzzled expression.
"It's ancient writing."
"What does it say?"
"Well, who knows."
With that clear answer, the first executive scratched his head and followed the Cardinal.
[Warning!]
[This territory belongs to the Hero, Kim Hanbyeol.]
"We won't get cursed or anything, will we?"
"What nonsense."
With those words, the entrance to the ruins closed, and darkness enveloped the area.
[Unauthorized individuals are not allowed to enter.]
Despite that, the silver letters near the entrance continued to glow /genesisforsaken
