Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga

Chapter 720

The Demon King threw shit and ran away until the last moment.

It was a sight that could not be explained in any other way.

The darkness that had been squirming stopped spreading around, but that didn’t mean they were slowly dying out. Rather, there was a strong feeling that they were gathering strength together, and as the eroding entities melted into it, the evil spirit’s energy grew stronger.

Is it possible to chew the celestial fighter who is going to regression to run the back of the Devil’s king, who had to do this to the back of the Devil’s king who wanted peace.

The word “Great chew” was used in this case.

I wish I could just neutralize and purify everything before I gather them, but my body is at its limit now.

Even if there was a dramatic change thanks to Ephaga-nim’s help, it doesn’t mean that there was no past where I overdid it by randomly unleashing my divine power. In that state, I overdid it again while trying to break the connection with the Demon King, so it’s surprising that I didn’t collapse right away.

If it were to explode right now or spit out some weird giant monster or something, that would be a different story… but at least it doesn’t seem like it’s going to explode.

“···But somehow I feel a sense of foreboding·”

Although the physical appearance is obviously unheard of and unseen, the divine power swirling within it is somehow familiar.

To be exact, it’s not the divine power that I’m familiar with, but the moving form is familiar… I can’t remember what it was. It seems like it’s not a problem with my memory, but rather I’m just so tired that I feel like fainting and my head isn’t working.

If I just collapse and fall asleep like this, will the soldiers clean me up? As my senses became dull to the point where I couldn’t even feel the wind blowing through my broken helmet, what made me strain my half-closed eyes was a familiar voice from far away.

“Eldmia!”

“Why is a child who is not even healthy···”

I looked back, barely able to control my body, and saw Cheryl running towards me with the spirits in tow. If it was something like the healing bead that the suicide saintess had given me, I don’t think I could have recovered that much with just the magic I had given her, but how could her speed be so extraordinary?

As she tilted her head, wondering what was going on, and was about to raise her voice, wondering if she was being too harsh, a familiar face appeared behind her and the spirits.

“Oh, so that’s why”

I never imagined that there would come a day when I would feel relief at the sight of Siegfried running towards me with a huge sword drawn, at a speed no less than that of Cheryl.

“It’s a little late, but… I’ll let it slide since I didn’t come after everything was over.”

Today is that monumental first day.

I can really faint now.

◈

As soon as he received the urgent report from Levien, Siegfried got on the gate without looking back and ran without even waiting for the rear guard. The inner city he arrived at was miserable.

The walls were gaping like they had been cut by a water jet. The inner castle was a mess, as if a dragon’s claw had passed through it. Several demons were dying and some were really dead.

“What the hell, Ogatorp! Where are you going in that condition!”

And even Ogatorp, who was so depressed that he thought he would die soon, tried to crawl through the hole in the wall.

Siegfried approached Cheryl, trying to console himself with the fact that at least he didn’t have to ask her where the Demon King and Eldmia had gone, and after a brief moment of deliberation, he used the extra healing orb Teneashi had given him.

In fact, Siegfried saw no need to use such a wasteful consumable here. Just like the survivors of the former Demon King’s army who were expected to be Eldmia’s escort, Cheryl also had the healing spell.

However, in the end, there was only one reason why I used the healing bead.

The last thing Siegfried remembers is Cheryl, who is so closed off and incommunicative that it seems like she might be mentally ill and not someone who can have a normal conversation. So rather than trying to stop her after hearing her answer, he decides that it would be faster to just cure her and chase her to her destination.

There were many misunderstandings, but that judgment was very accurate. In fact, Siegfried, along with the spirits following behind her, ran without stopping, and as a result, not only did he reach the area overflowing with the evil god’s divine power so thick it was nauseating, but he was also able to find Eldmia in one go.

Eldmia, who turned her head towards Cheryl with one eye shattered in her helmet, looked tired even from a distance.

The armor covering his entire body looked fine except for the helmet, but the person in question was having difficulty even controlling his body, and he approached using his sword as a cane. Siegfried realized once again that there was a piece of the Demon King here, seeing a sight he had never seen before, even when he fought the great demon Crumelia in the basement of the Royal Academy or when he fought alongside him on the front lines.

And I also understood that Eldmia had driven out that fragment. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have let her guard down like that.

“You take care of the rest.”

“Huh?”

Because she believed that, it took some time for Eldmia to understand the words that she had casually thrown out, as she skillfully accepted Cheryl who had rushed into her arms to support her.

“I need to get some rest”

There was no time to ask, “What?” Cheryl let out a shrill scream at the sight of Eldmia collapsing, but Eldmia closed her eyes and fell to her knees on the floor, fainting.

“···aha·”

However, Siegfried, who was proud of his perceptiveness compared to Eldmia, was able to quickly understand what he was saying.

He must be asking me to clean up the mess the Demon King left behind. He was worried whether he could do well since he had not yet reached the level of a Master, but Siegfried decided to trust Eldmia’s vision, who had passed the baton to him, and the group running behind him.

“Thank you for your hard work. Leave the rest to me.”

And I broke another healing bead to recover Eldmia, who had already fainted. Even though her lost mind would not return, her physical recovery would be instantaneous…

“···Huh?”

In an instant… pure… pure Why the fuck isn’t this working?

“What? Are you cursed or something?”

“That curse?!”

Siegfried almost lost focus for a moment as he watched Cheryl start to make a face like a sobbing cat, but fortunately, the soldiers and priests rushing in and shouting to purify the area helped him maintain his composure.

But even if I try to keep my wits about me, nothing has changed.

The Tenea City healing bead, which has guaranteed absolute performance regardless of the person, is not working on Eldmia.

“Zeke! We have to move together!”

“You’re here at the right time, Tessie. Can you look after me for a moment? The healing bead you gave me isn’t working.”

“···What is that?”

Siegfried, who was still lacking in knowledge of divine power and sacred laws and was unable to make up his mind, gestured to Teneacy who followed him, and as a result, Teneacy stopped scolding Siegfried’s actions and instead looked at Eldmia.

And unlike Siegfried, he was more confident than anyone else in his knowledge of sacred law and divine power, and was terrified.

“What on earth happened in that short amount of time?”

“It seems like I defeated the Demon King’s fragments all by myself···”

“No, it’s not that. We’re surrounding the sanctuary right now!”

Although it is said that Sagrada is naturally harmless, the current Eldmia is literally a walking sanctuary.

“This is why the holy law doesn’t work. The protection of the gods only works on mortals who need their care. The current Eldmia is···”

Not mortal·

Strictly speaking, it meant that he was classified as half mortal and half god, that is, a demigod. When his thoughts reached that point, Teneaci, who had been simultaneously grasping the situation and explaining it without thinking, suddenly tilted his head.

“No, how is this possible···?”

It was because he had a hard time accepting the situation even after saying it himself. Even if it was temporary, there was no way that a sacred method could make an ordinary person into a state close to a half-god!

In a situation that was completely incomprehensible, Teneasi had to feel like not only his head but also his eyes were spinning, and Siegfried, who was listening to the story from the side, had to feel a headache in a different sense from Teneasi.

I haven’t figured out the purpose yet, but isn’t this too much?

“So? Is Eldmia okay?”

Even though I was listening to the whole story from the side, there was Cheryl who asked me if I was okay with my health, even though I was half-asleep and half-naked. Now I was at a loss as to what was going on.

“Yes? Oh yes. Don’t worry. I don’t understand how you’re okay… No, that’s not it. It’s not that there’s something wrong with your body, you just passed out from mental exhaustion…”

How can someone react like that after hearing that a normal person is turning into a demigod? After all, isn’t being a demigod a big deal?

“Zeke! So suddenly… Zeke? What’s wrong?”

It was Eselua, who tried to scold Siegfried for his impulsive behavior, who offered him a helping hand as he struggled with the cognitive dissonance that was suddenly upon him.

Siegfried, who had been looking at Eselua and Entire with a lost expression, turned his head toward them and answered after a moment of silence, shaking his head indifferently.

“It’s nothing”

It’s easier to give up

You can hear the details later when Eldmia wakes up.

“It seems like Hyung took care of the big problem, so let’s take care of that one and then settle this fuss.”

Giving up on thinking, Siegfried turned to face the black mass of flesh that looked similar to when the great demon Crumelia transformed into a dragon in the Academy’s basement, and readjusted his grip on his greatsword, Nothung.
