Episode 251. God of Destruction (3)
Children belonging to a family are always under the guidance of adults.
Harkel, the current head of the Biold family, also spent his childhood in the elementary school building.
Even at that time, the Byold family was a well-known family, so Harkel was in the upper class within the class.
Since it was a place where nobles and commoners lived together, it was inevitable that many conflicts would arise.
Children belonging to the nobility often teased commoner children.
-Why are you so poor?
-So you were born into a wealthy family?
-If you want to be like us, jump from a high place and be reborn.
The laughter that comes with such verbal abuse.
Harkel in particular was the leader of the group that took the lead in such actions.
Of course, this is still something that is happening among children. There is always room for correction.
Because it was a time when I would just cover my eyes, nose, and mouth and charge forward instinctively, doing whatever I wanted.
So, even verbal abuse is something you will regret when you look back on it as an adult.
Then one day.
– A child in the same class died.
It is said that the child, who was from a commoner family, became increasingly deviant because he was always teased, and eventually came to hate his family.
The child, who turned his resentment on his father, ended up fighting with him, and because his father was always drunk, he killed the child in a fit of anger.
The incident became a rumor that spread throughout the town.
-Have you heard the rumor? That drunkard killed my child.
-Why on earth?
-My son started talking back, but he couldn’t control his temper and stopped… .
Naturally, it became a hot topic at school. Everyone was curious as to why the child talked back to his father.
The reason is none other than anger at poverty.
I was under a lot of stress because I was always teased in class for that reason.
Harkel’s reaction to him at the time was this:
-You don’t think it’s my fault?
The cause was simply the child’s anger. That’s why he died after messing with his father on his own.
So Harkel thought, It’s not my fault.
But he tried hard to ignore it. He knew that the anger was building up because of him.
If I hadn’t discriminated against the common people back then, that wouldn’t have happened.
This is a fact that Harkel himself already knows well… .
– Did I hold a knife and get blood on my hands? I didn’t do anything, right? So I’m innocent.
He started manipulating his own mind.
When birds are hungry, they peck at anything they can find, when animals are hungry, they hurt people, and when people are hungry, they lie.
Harkel, who was mentally driven, chose to escape reality.
I try to ignore the feeling of guilt because that is the basic selfishness of humans.
At that time, Harkel was of an age where it was easy to move around.
Since it had already run wild like that, it wasn’t something that could be easily fixed.
In an attempt to escape from that sense of responsibility, he lies with his head and mouth.
Because doing otherwise would have been against one’s instincts.
-It’s because of you.
But there was a child who caught Harkel as he was running away.
-How about apologizing to that father?
Harkel was dumbfounded when he heard that. He still had no sin.
The boy noticed this and held onto Harkel so he wouldn’t run away. That made him angry.
A boy with blue hair and sapphire eyes. Even looking at his face now, it’s disgusting.
That was the beginning of my bad relationship with Chain Silver.
.

“Ugh…. Why…!”
Harkel Wilde, who floated into the air and then hit his head on the ground.
The shock allowed him to briefly recall the past.
The worst memory is running away to freedom but getting caught in the end. No matter how hard you try to escape, the Chain Silver guys are always chasing after you.
Tracks down targets in an instant and then freezes their own body to prevent movement.
“What the hell am I…!”
Even now, Harkel still could not understand them.
because….
“What on earth have I done!!”
With a sincere desire to kill, Harkel released magical power from his entire body.
The body frozen in the Silver Age could not withstand the magical power and broke.
As soon as he was released from the palace, he immediately filled his large sword with a fire attribute aura.
“Why do you guys keep bothering me!!”
A devastating blow filled with hatred towards Chainsilver flies towards Jenny.
The air, which had cooled down due to the tremendous heat from the sword, is rekindled.
Jenny reacted quickly and summoned a wall of ice to block the attack. However, the power was so great that the wall began to melt.
“Huh…. That’s pretty strong…!”
Is it true that even rotten teeth are good teeth?
I don’t know about anything else, but Harkel is also a skilled warrior who cut down demons together with his father.
In terms of experience and proficiency in strength, he is bound to be ahead.
But Jenny now had the strength to overcome it.
[90%]
Increases the coldness of the Silver Age to its maximum.
A powerful output that was thought to be impossible to raise is now in Jenny’s hands.
A vast snow storm sweeps forward toward where Jenny stands.
Harkel’s precise and powerful fire strike evaporated in an instant, and even Harkel himself was swept away by the gust of wind.
“Ugh! My body…!”
Harkel, who is barely able to keep his body from freezing by releasing his magical power.
However, I was gradually reaching my limit as my toes began to stiffen due to the cold.
It was impossible to even charge the sword with aura because all of the magic power was being used to endure this cold.
‘How can I have such an absurd power…!’
Harkel had been in many battles. He had fought many battles against magicians who used freezing magic, so he was very familiar with the destruction laws.
If you expel the high heat inside your body, you can offset the coldness. This is a magical power management technique that was developed to counter Chain Silver’s swordsmanship, which has cold properties.
But what was going on? Even though I was releasing heat with my magical power at its maximum, my body was stiffening.
‘The power to fight against Chain Silver is so futile…!’
When it comes to magical power, that woman is ahead of him.
It was an unacceptable reality, but this was not the time to be lost in thought. If I continued like this, I would freeze again.
Harkel, who had shown his courage, slammed the sword he was holding into the ground.
At that moment, a huge tsunami arose and the floor began to split apart.
Harkel endured the cold and injected his magic into the ground, causing great tremors.
The ground begins to crack and eventually fragments of the ground explode and fly away.
“This is…!”
Jenny, who had lost her balance due to the shaking, knew what the technique was.
It was a technique that the first-year Travel Biold guy used mainly during sparring.
It has always been a technique to interfere with the sword’s movements, and it was applied even in the Silver Age.
There was a brief moment of staggering, and the cold eased, and Harkel took advantage of the gap.
“Die!!”
Harkel, who was barely able to move his body, quickly closed the distance.
A huge sword cuts diagonally, ready to cut off a person’s neck.
But the sword that was drawing the line suddenly stopped.
“What gives you the right to kill my friend?”
The sword that was about to touch my neck was blocked by some defensive magic.
It was a barrier created by a small girl that blocked the sword of a skilled man, as powerful as the head of the Viold family.
“you…!”
The sky suddenly darkened due to an angry Mary Ludciel.
In an instant, dark clouds gathered and lightning struck.
At the same time, it creates a tremendous noise and poses a threat to the ground.
“And what did you do so well that you’re making a fuss about it!”
Krrrr!-
Mary, her red eyes flashing, rages. A huge lightning bolt responds to her will and strikes the ground.
It was a ‘thunderbolt’ of the highest level magic, and Harkel was hit directly by the powerful lightning.
“Kuaaaaaaah!!!”
Harkel screams as if his skin is being torn apart.
No matter how powerful Harkel is, it becomes difficult to aim when hit by that powerful magic.
Eventually, he collapsed with his whole body paralyzed and completely burned.
“Even if you fly and crawl for a hundred days, you can’t even catch up to Uncle Gerard’s feet.”
“Eugh…!”
“And it wasn’t your fault? I knew it when I saw that black coffin.”
Mary speaks in an unusually serious tone.
It was such a big deal that Mary couldn’t smile like she usually did.
The Demon War broke out because the Black Coffin was opened. In fact, it was not an accident, but Harkel’s intention to open it.
“Of course, it must have been opened by mistake the first time. And there was a gap to close it before the evil that had been sleeping in the coffin could spread out into the world.”
“On what basis….”
Mary was not a party present at the scene at the time.
So the question occurred to Harkel, but there was something he didn’t know.
What was inside that black coffin was the power of the Demon King.
Mary, who possessed the power of the Demon King, was able to sense what the situation was like at that time.
The Demon King’s thoughts that escaped from the coffin at that time. It was a glimpse into the memories that the thoughts had experienced.
“When you opened the coffin, you must have felt something was wrong. But you must have thought as you watched the evil spirits spreading out into the world.”
It just so happened that the Bayold family’s achievements were needed.
In the area where that malice has spread, there will certainly be monsters swarming around, and if you defeat them, you can make your name known far and wide.
Therefore, the open black coffin was not closed.
It seemed as if he had no intention of causing harm to others.
“But contrary to expectations, a terrible being called the Demon King jumped out of the coffin and caused a war among the Demon Clan. We had to close the coffin belatedly, but it was already too late.”
Still, Harkel went to the front lines and fought.
But there was no sense of responsibility for opening the coffin.
People who didn’t know the circumstances simply thought of him as one of the heroes fighting for the citizens.
Harkel just wants that passionate response to be directed at him.
That’s why he fought.
“You took responsibility for everything, and then you went around acting like a hero in front of the people of the empire, saying you defeated the demons. How many tongues do you have?”
“Ugh!”
Jenny also looked down at him because she knew the whole truth.
Then, Ruska, the two saints, and even Mirona, who was once the princess, were all glaring at him with contempt.
Harkel, paralyzed, could do nothing but grit his teeth.
“Don’t worry about that. We don’t go for your neck like you do. Instead….”
“…?”
“He who begins with lies must perish with lies.”
Fujik!-
“Kuaaaaak!”
Mary cut off Harkel’s leg with her wind blade magic.
Even though blood was splattered on his face, he didn’t react at all. He was a fraud who had deceived the entire empire.
The guy’s lies caused the Demon War, and the empire suffered catastrophic damage.
… putting ignorant people at risk for their own convenience, it was the very embodiment of human evil.
That was when.
Kookooooong!-
The ground began to shake violently again.
This time, something felt different from the earthquake Harkel had caused.
The place where a strange energy was felt was the basement of this castle.
A powerful energy was stirring underground.
Harkel raised the corners of her mouth when they responded, “What is this?”
“It’s finally starting.”
“what?”
Harkel’s paralyzed mouth moves.
At the same time, an evil aura began to ripple through Harkel’s body.
“It’s already too late. Everything was prepared before you came.”
Jenny asked what that meant, but all she got was a strange answer.
“Do you know what kind of being that boy who was hanging out with you is?”
“what?”
“You don’t seem to know anything. Well, anyway… It’s about to begin!”
At that moment, Harkel’s body turned into a grain of light and disappeared. Some kind of magical tool was used to transport his body to another place.
And then a huge explosion occurred around the castle.
The sky, which had been covered with dark clouds, splits apart and the earth is torn apart as if dug with a shovel.
Half of the kingdom was devastated and reduced to ashes.
