Herdian is very good at being okay even if he is not.
Waking up in the morning, he smiled as usual as if last night they had not finished talking four eyes in his world.
Fortunately Meridian also knew how to behave that way until he focused on traveling.
"We're going to start entering the border area." Lumiel. "Meridian, come here."
About five hundred meters away they flew, a gigantic field of magic came into sight.
The meridians felt an incredible pressure that felt like they were burning the skin for real. Spontaneously he turned to Herdian, finding him even having trouble withstanding the pressure.
"What's that bulkhead?"
"Yes." Yeah." Lumiel enveloped them with a red mana that felt strong. "Hold me. We're gonna teleport."
Meridian grabbed Herdian's hand almost as they were drawn into the magic field.
It felt different from the teleportation magic he had once used.It was a foreign feeling. The meridians sucked in at an unreasonable speed.
His hand holding Herdian slipped off, and so did Lumiel even though he tried hard to embrace the Meridian.There was a chain that extended towards him, trying to pull the Meridian but could not.
They vacillate. It moves fast but everything looks like it is moving slowly. The Meridian sound could not come out. For the slightest bit he panicked, it was impossible to do many things without the knowledge of Herdian as well as Lumiel.
Damnit.
What is all this?!
...*...
"Ohuk!"
"Lumil!"
Meridians rushed up a moment after they fell to the surface. The first thing that happened was precisely Lumiel spewing out black blood, trembling as if there was an unreasonable pain in her body.
"Lumil! What is?! Which core are you hurt?!"
"Miss."
Herdian did not have time to absorb the dizziness in his head, because the condition of Lumiel can not be said to be good. He continued to bow, spewing out a strange black blood that poured abnormally out of his mouth.
It was just like the Meridian yesterday.
"Young Master, heal him."
Lumiel's hand was raised, signaling it was unnecessary. "I'm doing fine. That's the reaction of the barrier."
"really?" Meridian bend. Ensuring his face was still pale white, red-haired with red eyes.
Okay, he's still good-looking. It's still fine.
"It looks like we need to rest. Let's find place—"
Meridian had not yet finished his words, the growling sounds of foreign creatures were heard. Herdian put up a barrier around them, but from how he also looked unwell, it meant that the impact of the portal had indeed affected magic.
Meridians also feel nauseous.
"I'll strengthen it." For now he surrounds the Herdian barier with his barier.
Help sit Lumiel who is still coughing lightly.
"You don't know this?"
"Basically no one ever tried to come here and come back alive." Lumiel grinned a bit. "But it's nice to see you worried, miss. Are you going to kiss me now?"
Meridian approaching Herdian. "Are they high-level monsters, Herdian?"
"Don't ignore me!"
Let's ignore the idiot who seems to be fine. Herdian agreed, apparently.
"Monsters that can't cross the barrier have very high magic power, Miss. So it could be said that all the monsters in this forest were far away from the monsters we encountered in the dungeon."
"Is my magic not enough to wipe them out?"
Herdian frowned deeply. "I think it can, but for everyone, it's not enough. And where around this place, just where is the devil."
"What does that mean?"
"The Dungeon has a mana stone that drains mana into the air for the restoration of human magic." Lumiel slowly got up. "This place is shrouded where the devil nation. If your strength is reduced, it's hard to recover."
They should have known. If so they bring stock of which stone. But they can't be blamed if they don't know, so Lumiel has said no demons come back alive. Especially humans.
This feels like the final hurdle of the main character. Let's kill them all, be the demon lord and come back.
Definitely works.
"Don't I tell you?" Lumiel pointed her hand into the air. "I'm the strongest here."
He laughed arrogantly, ruffled around his waist in awe while Meridian and Herdian stayed away, unwilling to contract stupidity.
"Let's go."
"At least praise me!"
"Come, Miss."
But, even though Lumiel seemed fine, they might have to find a place to rest. In addition to recovering the feeling of dizziness and nausea after passing through the portal, Meridian also felt that he had to discuss strategies.
Now they are in a completely foreign place. Without any strategy, they would just look stupid.
"Lumiel, fly me and Herdian."
"Why is he too?"
"Do it."
He pouted, but kept flying the Meridian and Herdian high.
He pointed at a tall tree close to them, then landed on its trunk together. From here, it looks more clearly the atmosphere and conditions around.
Somehow knowing where the demons and humans are, but the sky in this place has a blend of red and black colors. The atmosphere is as gloomy as the darkness in classic fiction stories, and the sounds of animals sound eerie from many directions.
The most important thing to note, the area of this place is extraordinary. The area of one forest is enough to take days to explore, but the area of this place is like the area of a city.
No, maybe more?
"How big is this place?"
"At least bigger than the Continent we live in."
"Does the existence of the stone feel any clearer?"
"No." Lumiel patted her clothes that were splattered with black blood. "I just feel like this rock is here. There's nothing like the stone calling me or feeling in a certain place."
So they had to find a rock that was nowhere, the bottom of the sea, the top of a mountain, the roots of a tree, on top of a forest as big as a continent?
Meridian breathed. It feels crazy, but what can I do.
"Let's rest. Can I put a barrier here?"
"Let me, Miss. Please save what Miss has."
"No, I'm just." Lumiel coughed. "Save where you are."
"You rest." He was the strongest, only he seemed to be the one who was seriously injured as well.
This is called the main character's obstacle, so the strongest weapon must be guarded carefully.
"Diamond, do it."
"Good, Miss."
Meridians leaned back against the giant tree. He reached into his pocket to look for something, then took out a dimensional pouch given by Dion.
It's just food. More precisely emergency food if it turns out that there is no fruit or monster meat that can be eaten.
"Diamond, restore yourself." The meridian gives off a certain amount of water and fruit. So did Lumiel before she drank.
Heh. He never thought he would experience this kind of situation in his life.
Camping in the land of the devil. The path to the resurrection of the demon king. And the demon king was himself.
Hadeh.This is romance or action?
Come to think of it, what exactly is the plot of the original Laila novel? Is that Dion's antagonist? What kind of story line?
Wait, the antagonist is the princess. What's that name? A .... It looks like there's A then H then R. Oh, or is there a T? He's boring as an antagonist, anyway.
Want this road or that road, it seems boring.
The most fun is living alone. Obstacles are bypassed in favor of oneself, sadness gives valuable lessons, the enemy gives self-quality.
While in this world, he became a demon king, which was a benefit of the demon race. He became the son of the Marquis, who was fortunate even the Crown Prince.
"Meridian, let's move." Lumiel suddenly stood up.
"What's wrong?"
Before getting an answer, the Meridians had already flown into the air. Only a few seconds apart the ground under the tree shook, giving rise to a caterpillar-like monster the size of a megalodon that was raging.
Uwwah, disgusting.
