Sent To Isekai As Demon King's
Eps 30: Battle of Redwood I

Spring, 4 April 1163 Zaenium.

The southern Redwood Forest coastal area, Duchy Royal Capital, Zamara Kingdom.

Afternoon.

The conditions inside the main tent of the troops were very chaotic. Tables and chairs were falling apart. There were several corpses of Knights, heads or other limbs that were cut off and separated from the body, and fresh red blood that was splattered and still dripping. In addition, the faces of those who were still alive looked bad. Some are scared, agitated, angry, confused, even cold.

“Ezar,” Duke Zerestia murmured softly.

“Hopefully they also survived.” Said the Marquis trying to appease Duke Zerestia.

“Dispose of your bad thoughts. Think of yourself first.” Duke Gazor said resuscitate. “There are still enemies in front of your eyes.”

After saying so, he walked out followed by several Knights including Marquis Falimus.

Outside the tent, they saw their troops that had been scattered due to the sudden attack from the monsters. They forget the fact that they could have been hunted instead of hunted.

“Gather the remaining troops.” His orders to his subordinates.

“Good, Mr.”

After a while, some higher-ups of the army had come before him, accompanied by some Knights and Magicians. Just then, they felt a powerful aura approaching them quickly.

There are three figures. A person with a mask made of wood as well as a dark red magic robe who looked like a Noble in the middle. A Devil with a fiery red skin was as if it was made of magma grasping a trident spear with an intimidating aura. And lastly was a purple scaly Dragon that was used as a means of transportation they both–though the Devil seemed to be able to fly with both of his red wings.

They are Laciel, Hazura, and Nadja in Dragon form. Originally, he did not wish to appear before a Human. Then, having found a decent opponent, he finally wanted to. But then, he did not want his face to be seen. Fortunately he was able to make a mask out of wood immediately, although the results were somewhat less convincing, authoritative or creepy.

He did this for a reason. His face had already been seen by Marquis Falimus. But it seemed, this disguise was enough to make him appear different than before. After all, who would speculate that one of the High Rank Adventurers' groups was the Demon King and his subordinates?

“Who are you? Are you the leader of these monsters?” Duke Gazor asked as he looked up.

Laciel did not answer until he finally landed.

“If yes, then what?” the answer.

“So you ... who ordered an army of monsters to attack?” Duke Zerestia came out of the tent. Staring towards Laciel with a gaze filled with fury. “Cannot be forgiven! I will not forgive!!!”

He shouted by brandishing his sword and dashed closer to Laciel.

Laciel silently analyzed the strength of Duke Zerestia.

[Name : Fazerin de Zerestia | Race: Human

Class : Warrior

Title: Head of the Zerestian Family, Duke of Zerestia, Great General of the Zamara Kingdom, Great General of the north.

Combat Power : A+

Note: It is in Rage condition. Combat strength increased significantly.]

So, he's Duke Zerestia, huh? His combat power is more or less the same as Marquis Falimus, Nadja, and Gamlak the Troll after being named. He's a little better than Hazura. Thought Laciel. His strength sounds great, but it's like it's still lacking if the opponent is me.

“Let me face this weak pest, Mr.” Hazura asked for permission.

“No need. I'll take care of it.” Timpal Laciel who had jumped from Nadja's back.

Ctangs!

Ctangs! Ctangs!

They both exchanged attacks. Trying to break through the opponent's defense and deal damage. Metal rubs against each other. Sparks of fire adorn. But the end of the fight had been seen ever since Duke Zerestia was already overpowered by anger, and his opponent this time was even superior in magic compared to swordsmanship, but it was already on par with him just by sword.

“It looks like the end result is already visible. The winner is determined.” Laciel.

He said that, certainly not without reason. The Duke had received many injuries, whereas himself was still not.

“It's nice to meet you. Goodbye to.”

The spring!

Ctangs!

In front of Laciel was now standing Duke Gazor turned his back to Duke Zerestia. His sword came into contact with Laciel's sword. He held him in time before Laciel took the life of one of his comrades.

“Do you really like to annoy others? Can't you just stay there?” Laciel says.

“Are you going to be quiet only if your subordinates or associates are in danger?” Duke Gazor replied.

Both of them asked rhetorically. The answer is clear without saying.

Laciel retreated for a moment creating a distance to measure the strength of the person in front of him.

“Hmm, can you introduce yourself?” Duke Gazor asked.

“I am the Demon King Lucifer. I am the Lord of the Redwood Forest. You who dare to disturb the peace of my life, will pay for his actions.” Laciel introduced himself.

“Include, I am Duke Hozart de Gazor. Often known as the Duke of the Royal Capital as well as the Great General who is directly under the orders of the King. The Redwood Forest is our territory. So, we reserve the right to arrange it as we please.” Duke Gazor introduced himself.

[Name : Hozart de Gazor | Race : Human

Class : Paladin

Title: Head of the Gazor Family, Duke Gazor, Duke of the Royal Capital, Great General of the Zamara Kingdom.

Combat Power: S]

A Paladin, huh? It reminds me of the time when I was playing Zaenia V. Inner Laciel.

The Paladin class is one of the classes that can use holy magic, such as Saints or Monks. And of course, holy magic was one of the attacks that could inflict a lot of damage to the Demon and monster races. That's general knowledge.

And once, Laciel had faced a player who got the Fallen Paladin class, a class branch of the Paladin class whose condition to get it was that the user liked to do PK. He had a hard time fighting with her.

[PK stands for Player Killer (Player Killer), or it could be the activity, namely Player Killing (Killing Player). Commonly found in MMORPG games.]

Fortunately, he knew the gap to his shortcomings thanks to the amount of time he used to read and understand the rules and regulations of the game, both from the official website, and from the blogger who told him. If the Paladin can use holy magic, but it is weak against forbidden magic. Thus, Fallen Paladins are resistant and can use forbidden magic, cannot use holy magic, and are weak against elemental magic.

And luck is on his side. Although he took the path of the Demon race, but he preferred to raise the level of the Elemental Mage Class namely Magus until he reached the Great Magus, compared to the level of his Demon King. That made him have an advantage over the Fallen Paladin.

However, that was when he was playing the game. In contrast to this world which includes more aspects to victory. And the original Paladin with the Fallen Paladin was different. Although there are most of the same, such as equipment. But different in its attributes.
