Black Hero
Freeing the slave (Final)

In the Guild, John sipped his hot coffee and his heart had already calmed down after a previous sense of shock assaulted him.

"So, what does he mean by he's a demon king?" John asked

"You may not believe it but a thousand years ago I was a hero." Answer Rena while drinking her tea.

"Hero? Thousand years?"

John tilted his head in confusion.

Rena placed her cup on the table and crossed her arms.

"Yes, because of reincarnation magic. My memory of myself in the past was very little but, a thousand years ago, it was known to the mythological age. I'm a hero and Zen is a demon king."

"That's it."

John held his head because the story he had just heard made his head hurt.

"Well, you don't have to think about that. Zen will return safely."

The girls looked at Rena and smiled a little.

...****************...

I stretched my hand out to the maid.

"Come on, we're out of here."

The maid and the slave who were behind the maid were a little scared and trembling.

Are they shivering because it's so cold in here? 

I immediately took off my coat and gave it to the maid. However, the maid looked puzzled as I gave her my coat.

I turned around and saw Yugo holding back his laughter.

"What's so funny?" My toot.

"T-Nothing." The answer.

Well, I don't know what made her laugh but now I think we should get out of here. And also since then I did not find the four-armed demon as Yugo said.

"We'd better get out of here. I'm..."

As he wanted to speak, the building suddenly shook.

"uhh..."

"What is this?!"

The quake? No, it's not that. Something big is approaching.

Not long after that, it stopped. No one was hurt but I am sure. There will be danger after this.

["Zen, he's coming!] (Lucifer)

Brak!

We quickly avoided. The ceiling shattered and the smoke of dust blocked our view.

"You guys are okay?" My yelling.

"Yes!" Fight them.

A black shadow shot out from the dust smoke and led to Yugo.

"Yugo, get away from there!"

Yugo was confused and slow to receive my warning. I immediately used my demonic form.

This form increases my abilities, even though there is a time limit so I cannot use it as I please.

I immediately lunged and kicked at the black shadow.

The sound of a blow to the wall sounded quite loud. I guess for a while he couldn't move.

Thanks to that I can see her figure clearly. The burly man was 2 meters tall and had four burly arms.

"Yugo, go with the others."

"Huh? What are you saying?"

"Hurry, motherfucker! I'll fight him, so you just go."

".....But?"

I know Yugo can't leave me in this dangerous situation, but he's just gonna be an obstacle anyway. Anyhow I have to get Yugo and everyone here to get out safely.

Think on! Think on! Think on!

I put all my strength into finding a way out of this.

Ting!

Ideas popped into my head and soon I made a barrier around the demon and with lightning-like speed I carried Yugo to where the maids and slaves were.

"......You you?"

Maid wanted to say something but I ignored her.

"[Black hole]"

Basically, my black hole serves to move, if in the novel I read it is called [Gate].

"Hurry in."

"Eh?"

Maid looked confused.

"Don't say "Eh?" You guys gotta get out of here." My answer.

Maid and the slave behind her went inside in turn. But Yugo just stood still.

"What are you doing, you idiot."

"But Riza and the others?"

"No need to worry, I will also save them. For now you go in first, I can't keep this black hole any longer."

My hand was hot and it felt like my arm bone was going to break, I was trying to endure the pain of continuing to defend the black hole. Not only that, even my demonic form was already close to reaching its limit and my consciousness was almost gone.

"All right! I'm counting on you."

Yugo went into the black hole and a second later the black hole disappeared and I was exhausted, my eyes were heavy and my breath was breathless.

Riza and the others ran towards me, Erika and Silvia helped me up.

"Master!"

"You okay?"

"Ohuk!"

In an instant my demonic form disappeared and I coughed up blood.

"Master!"

"You okay?"

Looking at those who when I first met, my impression on them was 'Dislike'.

The reason for that was because they were so arrogant that they even spoke disrespectfully to Rina. But they helped me out like they just hated the woman who approached Yugo.

"Yes, I'm fine. Just a little tired."

"... You don't have to worry about me..."

This has never happened before. I didn't know that there were any side effects to using my demonic form for longer.

Chelsea took a bottle containing water from the [Dimensional Home] skill, It was a space skill capable of storing anything in another dimension.

"Drink this, brother." Chelsea gave me some drinking water.

They are really nice to me.

I took it and drank it.

Trang!

Without me realizing it, the four-armed demon managed to break the barrier I created.

The danger! How'this? My body is no longer strong and Yugo's slaves are impossible to fight against the demons due to the huge difference in strength.

An idea came back to my head.

The Yugo slaves are already in a position to fight.

I directed everything to stand up, even though my thigh was very sore but I tried to hold it and stood up.

"Sir Zen, are you okay?" Chelsea asked worriedly.

"Don't push yourself, you're hurting, aren't you?" (Erican)

"True, if you force yourself to keep on wounding it will keep on growing." (Silvia)

I smiled and glanced at Aisha.

"Aisha, go upstairs and call the slave who is on top."

"Ready."

"Erika, Silvia, Chelsea, Riza. Stand behind me."

They followed my words and I took out my sword and raised it as high as I could.

"What are you gonna do?"

"Shut up and look."

The four-armed demon ran towards me quickly. The blade of the sword turned into white flames and the moment the demon was in front of me right in the reach of the sword, I swung it forward.

"Master, look out!"

In an instant, the Devil was split in two and continued to burn by my white flames.

A loud shout came out from the Devil's mouth and my ears were quite sore. By then, my consciousness was gone and I fell unconscious because I couldn't hold my eyes.

The sound of screaming from behind me sounded even though it was a bit faint.
