Chapter 204.3
Chapter 204.3
One day, I was suddenly awakened. I was awakened by someone who, by chance, had discovered a hidden passageway to the chamber where I was sealed and had unwittingly entered the seal. I forcibly took that persons body, damaged the citys barrier, and contaminated the four others stones, which also powered the citys barrier. It was also fortunate that this underground canal, which powered the citys barrier, had deteriorated from continuously consuming nature energy from its surroundings, which resulted in the water level of the river near here dropping.
Since the place had become a dry area, she deliberately collapsed the passageway leading to the room where she was previously sealed. The reason she did this was because this was also the location where the other four members of her partys stones had been kept and were used to power the giant barrier of the capital that repelled monsters. She had no intention of letting anyone else know that she was going to take those stones out of there.
One other reason was that she did not want the very existence of the body she had taken to escape being known.
In addition, because possession was done forcibly and with an incompatible body, she suffered wounds that could not be healed by magic. Because of this, she had to act undercover to avoid being chased by anyone else.
At the same time, the Demon Lord also awoke from his sleep when he learned that she had awakened, and because of this, many of those whose judgment had been compromised by the Demon Lords power appeared, said the former Juliane with a smile that made Lily feel a chill as she continued.
I dont need to explain the rest. While the Demon Lord was summoning the Demon Race, I was working to block the waterways gradually here and weaken the damaged barriers of the city, while planting the traitors dirty Chronicle Stone on the humans. But
Things didnt go as planned from there. The vessels that had been deemed suitable for the former comrades of the Demon King failed to be obtained, and the next thing she knew, the stones had been taken away.
Juliane muttered to herself in self-mockery, I underestimated the new heroes of this generation.
Its still a bitter blow even if those stones were not destroyed. It is a good thing that I now have the opportunity to retrieve them again.
Had they been destroyed, the outburst of magic power would have caused great damage to the surrounding structures, but perhaps that would have been a more fitting end for her former comrades who had abandoned her and Yorg-sama, she continued sarcastically.
Knott then was the first to interject.
Is that why you brought this commoner here, as well?
Thats right. Even though she is too weak to be used as a vessel and would be easily broken if anything were done to her, I have no other choice right now. Also, originally, this place was designed to convert nature energy into magic to create the Chronicle Stone, but I am going to reuse the magic circle for something else.
Perhaps she was displeased that she was interrupted in her commentary. Juliane turned around and spoke up in a troublesome manner.
Its just a slight distortion of the same principle that makes people stronger when they defeat monsters. The barriers of the city are already damaged. If the Four Heavenly Kings ordered by the Demon King succeeded in their attack, a huge number of people will die. I will use this magic circle to absorb the lives of the humans and animals that were taken from them, as well as their suffering, sorrow, hatred, anger, etc., and let you absorb them.
Lily shuddered as she realized that this was not an ordinary means by any stretch of the imagination. But Juliane gave a small laugh.
If the vessel I transferred into was a saint, it would have aligned perfectly with me and would allow me to use my full strength. But, in order for this girls body to fight the current heroes, it is necessary for me to strengthen her, even if a bit forcefully. I wonder how the current generation of heroes will react when confronted by their own sister after I possessed her body and fought them. I will also retrieve the Chronicle Stones.
If the hero party wasted time trying to save her, new demon generals would pile up human corpses and absorb them to further strengthen the demon armys forces.
If they gave up on saving this girl and tried to kill her on the spot, that would also be a good thing. It would leave a scar on the hearts of the heroes which would serve as the first step towards converting them into a new leader of the Demon Army.
In the worst-case scenario, if Lilys body could not withstand it, she could turn her broken body into a moving corpse or a flesh golem-and use it as a tool to incite the heroes into a trap.
Rejoice, you shall have power worthy of a heros sister. If only you were still conscious.
I
It is no use trying to resist. Your heart is scarred as well.
Scarred?
The Spearman (Welner) lost his life because you hindered him. That is the wound in your heart.
Lily gasped as Juliane said with a laugh, From the distortions and scars of the heart, the Demon Lords power will dye the souls of his opponents.
Juliane continued, Even with my current power, it should be more than enough for me to defeat the current hero.
Knott said with a chuckle, As I expected. And if its not enough, Ill lend you a hand as well.
Do you really believe what she is saying?
Lily said with difficulty, and Knott laughed at her then responded.
Of course. I deserve to be standing next to Laura-sama. For that reason, I will even use the power of the Demon King to suppress that bastard (Mazell).
Knott smiled at Lily, who had a look of disbelief on her face.
In exchange for offering your body to Juliane-sama, I can return to the capital after its destruction. Then take all the glory of building it back up. After that, it will be mine.
Leppe added, I hope Sir Knott will do well.
Lily looked at Leppe, who continued with Knotts statement. Her expression was one of heartfelt uncertainty.
