The Strongest Gatekeeper – The Expelled Warrior With 9999 Defense Is Unmatched As The Gatekeeper Of

A silver blade tore through the thin mist surrounding the forest.

The tip of Fum's knife moves like a living creature trying to pierce my heart. It was reminiscent of a snake waving its fangs.

- Tsk. It's hard to see...

The fog-covered vision can't capture the figure of a fame in a black suit.

In contrast, her movements are surprisingly agile. They're going after my acute spot, exactly. Doesn't that mean that the demon's red eyes wouldn't suffer from fog?

Hyung!

A blade of cold radiance is approaching.

The orbit of the swinging knife, like the crescent moon, is at the edge.

Confirming that it was removed, or not, the fam immediately jumps backwards as if it were a bucket. You'll never give me enough room to fight back.

"I thought you were a brilliant archer." Melee battles are also common. "

"It's dexterous. Even if it looks like this.

Fumes responded with a slight dusty expression.

"You are the one who can often attack in this sight." I wonder if the night vision works. "

"No, I'm not seeing anything." I'm just sensing it. "

Instead of trying to capture the movement of the fumes, I keep an eye on the sway of the fog. The blade of the knife always comes against the flow of air.

If you can capture the sway of the fog, you can cure it even if you can't see it.

“That's what I said,” Pham muttered. I knew you weren't the sort of person who could be defeated by a rope after all.

“If you think so, why don't you drop your weapon now?”

I can't do that. That's a consultation.

Fumu kicked my ass.

"... I don't think we have much time to talk about it." Ceyla and Spinoza are not limited health. "

In the meantime, Seira and Spinoza are steadily accumulating Tsuzu's damage. It is better to think that there is not much reprieve.

But...

To help them, we must first defeat the Fam.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrp

Gregor and the others had set sights in the distance.

If we take out the demons, we'll unblock Ceylon, but if we try to take him out, we'll be the first to kill the two hostages.

Fumm's tiny body was diving into his nostrils.

I was distracted by my thoughts and didn't notice them.

"--Ku"

Prevents swinging knives with shields.

"What's the matter?" You can't win a fight while you're fighting. Are you sure? If you stay like this, you'll both be out of breath. "

"No, I don't have to worry about that anymore."

At that time, Fumu noticed something unusual.

Notice the scratches on my body that I don't remember.

"... even though I didn't attack anything, I was bleeding." Could it be that you're taking the damage on your shoulders? "

I decided that Seira and Spinoza would run out of strength, and I used my skills to take the damage from both of them. Even now, the wound is still accumulating.

"... Zeke, it's easy for you to break this situation." Kill me and abandon both Seira and Spinoza. That way, Gregor and the others will have no means to fight. I'm sure you'll be able to take them out on your own. I don't think it's the case that you're shoulder-damaging Ceyla and the others. "

Maybe.

"I said.

"But is that okay?" You can send your enemies a message of advice. "

"You don't have to think about this, you know that."

- That's right.

“Sieg, let us do our job! I don't want to be untied!”

"That's right! Kill those disgusting bastards!"

Seira and Spinoza raise their voices.

I think we should prioritize the protection of humanity over our own lives.

That's the truth.

Perhaps as a guard you should do so.

But I can't do anything to cut off my people.

It seems that Fumu has exposed the choice that he would not choose because he knows my personality.

"...... if you stay like this, you'll really die"

"But that's what you want, isn't it?" Isn't it convenient? "

With that, Fumu's face was distorted for a moment. That look on my face seemed to tell me how she felt.

"Hey, Fum, it looks like you want me to take you down."

"... what on earth did you see?" I used to wield a knife to kill you. "

"Yeah, but I won't die from that kind of attack." If you've been with me all this time, you'll understand. "

…………

"In the first place, there were many inexplicable things about your actions." If you really wanted to kill me, you'd have had plenty of opportunities. During Sonia-sama's escort assignment, during the sacred fountain ceremony, we were in the bedroom together. And you didn't try to move. You didn't kill me. What was most puzzling was that you brought the news to me in jail. Without it, I would have stayed in prison. The princess might have been killed, and the capital might have fallen. It would be of no benefit to the demonic side. "

Because I felt threatened, Gregor went into solitary confinement. Even so, Fumu's actions encouraged me to break out of prison.

I acted against the demon's intentions.

On the contrary, it is rather an act of betrayal.

The reasoning derived from it.

"Fum, you really wanted to stop me."

…………

I kept my cool expression on my face, but I knew that my luxurious body would jerk off. She said, holding the knife in her hand.

"... can I ask you one question?"

Yeah.

"... you stopped me from testifying against you for stealing the Light Orb?"

That's right.

”... if I insisted on your innocence, you could have accused me and imprisoned me”

"Yes, it is."

As a fellow, Fumu didn't think his testimony would be admitted. If you try to protect me, you may end up sinning against her. So I shut my mouth. That way, at least we can keep her safe.

”... I knew it.”

Fam muttered softly.

"It was my first time. In situations where my life is at stake, I still meet people who think about others.”

There was a small smile on his mouth. Somewhere there was a stunned smile.

"I've been dealing with a lot of people." As a result, I learned that others are untrustworthy creatures. If you want to protect yourself, you will relentlessly cut off others. You quickly invert your will and your words. The opponent who was supposed to keep his back was slashed from his back. I've seen enough to hate it, and I've done the same thing myself. If I didn't, I wouldn't be able to live. "

A technique of laughing at herself like she was mocking herself was strangely attached to the board.

"When you're born between humans and demons, it's hard just to live." It is said that humans are the minions of a terrible demon race, and the demons are said to be half-hearted people with human blood in them. That is why I cannot forgive anyone my heart. I don't know when I'm going to be betrayed if I'm going to reveal myself. There's nothing I can do but to add to my companions. "

Aren't the demons there among us?

That's what I asked.

Pham shook his head quietly.

"He doesn't think of me as a companion, and I don't think so either. To him, I am nothing but a disposable pawn. [M] He raised me as a spy to send me into the humans after my parents were murdered and I became independent. That's all there is to it."

So, "she said.

"I don't have any friends."

“You'll be here. We'll do it."

"... I'm shocked. You're still telling me that."

Fumu had an unbelievable expression on his face.

"... I was the one who put you in trouble." Even though it was a mixture of demons and humans. Now I'm pointing the knife at you. Still, you're trying to reach out to me. [M] He says he's one of us. Honestly, I'm struggling with understanding. "

I didn't really think you were dealing with the demons.

"... so is Seira and Spinoza." Your life is in danger, but your mission is more important than that. To me, you're unbelievable. "

Fam's lonely smile disappears when he blows.

"... if it's true, I should have set it up on an escort mission." Even though I couldn't do it, I came all the way here to cheat. "

"Isn't that because you were in love with us?" It's because you thought you were one of us even for a little bit. "

"... maybe."

said Pham.

"... I just tried to face it like this." I can't kill you. I've long been in love with you. "

"Fum. Come with us." Let's take them down. "

"... I'm sorry, but I can't do that."

Pham shakes his head to the side.

"Why?"

"... my heart is pierced with a blade." A sharp blade made of magic power. It was implanted by the man's hand. "

I point to my own chest and say.

"If you imitate me like I betrayed you, the blade stuck in your heart will work." At that moment, my heart will be pierced and I will be desperate. "

Fumu smiles lonely in his mouth.

"But even without it, I can't go with you."

"Why? If you're feeling guilty, you don't have to worry about it. Man, we all make mistakes. Your mistake is not yet fatal."

"... I'm scared. I've been betraying other people's lives myself. I can't bear to think about when I'm going to be betrayed."

said Pham.

"It's happier not to believe in others from the end than to be betrayed and despair. It's better to live without expecting anyone, without hurting them."

It must have been her reincarnation.

Persecuted and betrayed by both humans and demons.

That's why we cut ourselves off to protect our hearts.

That way, you won't have to touch it.

"... somehow. I'm relieved that this blade is stabbing." As long as I have this, I won't have to be dumped by that man. "

"That kind of thing is foolish." I don't say trust. It's just being used. That relationship won't bring us anything. "

I told you.

"Fum. Don't run away from believing in others."

"But...."

“I told you. I'm the only one who accepts you no matter what."

"I can say anything in words. Words are for lying. I don't want to get hurt anymore."

"If that's the case, I'll show it to you myself."

Huh?

I looked into Fum's eyes.

"I'll carry your pain, your pain, your sins, your wounds, your blades." If you get hurt, I'll take your place. "

"... even the blade stuck in my heart?"

"Yeah. That's right."

I nodded.

"I think of you as a companion." I will do whatever it takes to protect my cherished companions. I risk my life to protect you. "

"... if you do that, you will definitely die"

"I'm not gonna die."

I vigorously declared so.

"Fum, trust me."

…………

Looking straight at me, Fumu opened his eyes in surprise. Eventually, she let out a tickle and a smile.

"... your eyes are always so straight you want to turn away."

She muttered in amazement.

"... but that's probably why I want to believe it. I thought it might be okay if you betrayed me."

The face of Pham, who slowly raised his face, was as clear as the possession itself. Unlike the other demons, his red eyes were warm.

She eventually turned her back on me as she turned her heel back. His gaze looked at the demon man standing on the altar.

"Are you going to betray me? You didn't forget that, did you? Your heart is embedded with a blade created by my magic power."

Well, you just have to kill him before he activates.

Pham took out the knife and ran out.

Drawing the blood of the demons, she was not irritated. As soon as I reached the altar, I ran up the stairs.

However, the Demon Man's leeway did not waver.

Because I have an absolute trump card in hand that you can win by just cutting it.

"... a stupid woman. The place was born between humans and demons. Unfortunately, your blade will not reach me."

The demon's blade that stabbed Fum's heart.

The demon man put his hands together and activated it.

- Dokkun.

A blade enters the heart of Fumes and stops all life activities.

"...!?"

Fumu's lavish body, trying to jump at the demonic man, rolled down the altar staircase like a crow that had been shot down ─ ─.

I should have.

Though.

The vision he would have had didn't hold up as real.

Without stalling, Fumu reached out to the demon man. By the time I realized it, I was already in the middle of a special assassination.

"--what!?"

The demon man opened his eyes wide in spillage.

The next moment.

His neck was cut off from his body and he was flying through the air. It fell to the ground. The wide-open eyeball captures the shape of a fam with a knife in its hand.

"What... what...?"

The man's eyes were infiltrated with doubt.

But I'm desperate because I can't grasp the situation.

At the same time that they were out of breath, the pits that held Seira and Spinoza in captivity disappeared. I've done some damage, and it looks like the two of them are safe.

“Stupid!”

It was Gregor who shouted that way.

"Why! I bet Fam's heart was pierced with a blade!"

Fumes slumped toward Gregor.

Gregor retreated, his legs tangled, and his butt stuck to the spot. Something broke in him at that moment.

The lights of war were off from his expression.

I stand in front of Gregor with my butt up my sleeve and I look down.

“I told you. I'll take care of Fum's pain. ─ ─ I converted the pain of his magic blade into me.

Convert allies' wounds into your own.

I've been to Guren's fangs many times since then.

"Well, even so, if you're not dead, you're strange!" A heart-piercing blow!? Why are you still alive!? "

"It's not that much pain," I said. "Compared to the pain that Fam has been experiencing so far."

"......!"

Gregor had a stunned expression on his face.

I looked at him like I saw something unbelievable.

That being said, it's true that we've taken almost fatal damage. No matter how tough I am, my heart is damaged.

But...

The formation was completely reversed.

"Somebody! Somebody!"

Gregor calls out to his surroundings for help with his butt on. The desperate screaming fell lonely among the trees.

"Hey! There must be just one monster!"

Gregor was scattered like he was confused. Around the time I shouted and threw my throat, the situation finally changed.

Zah, the footsteps rang from behind.

“You're finally here,” Gregor said, looking back with hope in his eyes. However, when I saw the figure standing there, my expression was distorted.

"Fufu. You wanted to see me?"

"Fuck you. You've done so much for me." ─ ─ Of course, you're ready to be defeated, right?

It was Seira and Spinoza who rushed over.

None of Gregor's allies appeared.

"Oh, someone. Is anyone there..."

Surrounded by me, Pham, Ceylon, Spinoza, and the 5th Squad, Gregor muttered many times in search of life.

"There's no one there."

"I said.

"You're the only one who cut the connection." It would be too convenient to try to impress others now. ”

"...!?"

Gregor's eyes peeled when he was struck by a star. Bring out the hostility. I put my hand on the sword that was pointed at my waist as if it was being played.

"Whoaaaaaaaaa!! Siegghhh!!"

The sword was pulled out and slashed along with the shape of anger.

- You're desperate.

There is nothing foolisher than lack of calm in battle. Attacks become monotonous, making them easier for enemies to read.

The sword Gregor swung down, and I parted with my shield.

"Gaaaa!?"

The sword was flipped, and Gregor's staggered face was greeted with a straight line on the right.

Oh, my God!

His grip was telling me what it felt like to break his nose bone. As he continued to swing out his arms, Gregor's body blew backwards.

"... haha!"

With her eyes peeled, Gregor leaned down on the ground, spitting blood. When the bubble was blown, the thread of consciousness was completely broken.

"... you're done."

Fam muttered.

Yeah.

"... why did you use your fist instead of your sword?"

"I don't want you to run away from death. We need to catch him and let him spit on us."

Well, I said.

"I have a grudge that I was captured for wrongdoing." Sometimes I want Gregor to be tortured. "

“Zeke, you're surprisingly tenacious.”

"That's right. That's why I'm obsessed with you." Even if you betray me, I will not abandon you. "

Simultaneously with what I said, there was blood coming out of my mouth.

Zeke!

Zeke-san!

... bad. A little too much damage.

My body doesn't listen to me.

"... Zeke. I don't want to. You can't die because of me."

My cheeks were hot.

Fumes were looking down at me and crying.

It was the one that hit me.

- Oh, you made that look, too.

With that gentle gaze of compassion for others, we can do well together. I tried to call out, but I couldn't.
