Sent To Isekai As Demon King's
Eps 43: Nightmares
“Ugh, where is this?”
Laciel woke up sitting in a chair. His wrists and feet are tied.
Klang's! Klang's!
He tried hard to get out of there. But no matter how hard he tried, he could not escape. Not because the metal that bound him was so strong, but he felt that his strength was weakening.
‘Is this anti-magic metal? Who did this to me?’
He could not help but wonder inwardly as he tried to escape.
Klang's! Klang's!
Klang's!
She's speechless. He had just heard a voice other than himself.
Right now he was in a white room filled with light lamps, not the red glow of torch fire. The three sides around him were white walls, and the one side before him was only a darkness. No matter how bright the light was on his side, it would not be enough to illuminate the side before him.
‘Did I return to the modern world?’
The question is not without basis. Only in the modern world are lights as bright and white as this. Also, his incredible physical strength in the game was no longer there, or at least was inactive at the moment.
“It looks like you're up.”
Someone spoke from the dark side. Although he called her someone, but her voice was very familiar.
“Who are you? How can you, your voice ...,”
“Same as your voice?”
On the side of the shadow, the person cut off his speech. His voice was exactly the same as his. However, he was still unable to see himself, even if it was just his silhouette.
“There are many things I need to say. But, time is limited. Right now, I can only tell you that this is all in your mind, and the Zaenia Empire is your enemy.”
Laciel was still confused by all this. There are many things he needs to ask as well. Who and what is he? What does the word mean? But one thing was certain, he had indeed been suspicious of the Zaenia Empire ever since he had moved to this world, despite having never faced head-to-head.
“Now, wake up!”
After hearing him say that, his gaze darkened. He woke up from sleep.
...*****...
April 27, 1163 Zaenium.
Main Dungeon, Redwood Forest, Demon Kingdom of Lucifer.
Morning time.
“HAH! Huh, huh!”
Laciel woke up in a state of panic. He looked more like he had just done a marathon race, not like he had just woken up.
“Laciel, what's up?”
Hana who was sleeping right next to him immediately woke up upon hearing Laciel's unreasonable sigh.
“Hmmm.”
While Nadja on Laciel's right was not disturbed, and only changed his sleeping position.
“Just a nightmare,” replied Laciel.
He was confused as to how to explain the senseless incident earlier, and chose to hide it. But Hannah could still feel it.
Laciel stood up and put on clothes.
“You can tell a story if you want. I will always be there for you,” said Hana.
“Only ordinary nightmares. I'll go see Hazura.”'s work
Laciel left the room after peeking at Hana's forehead slowly.
...*****...
“Hyaa!”
Blaar!
In a forest, there was one Jaguar Beastman who was seen being besieged from various sides by many Forest Cat Beastmen.
“Mwehehe, who would have thought we could meet the Jaguar King alone in the forest,” said one of the Forest Cat Beastmen. He was white-haired with a hint of black and gray complexion all over his body. In both of his hands, he was clutching something like a clawed knuckle.
The Jaguar Beastman known as the King of Jaguars just kept silent not to reply. He was still weighing the strength of the enemy before him.
“What's up? Frightened to say nothing? Hehehe ..”.
Bugs!
He was silent for good after receiving one blow from the Jaguar King right in the throat.
“Hii..!”
His other friend was terrified. They tightened the horses, then launched a simultaneous attack. They've run away once, and won't run away again.
Bugs! A bag! Bugs! A bag! Bugs!
He also launched an attack. But most can be arrested.
Srats!
One of the Forest Cat Beastmen was able to injure him while he was behind. Smiled as if he had won this fight. But it only ignites the fire of the Jaguar King's spirit.
“Main-play is done.”
Dar!
A full blow of energy was unleashed and made one life of his enemy drift.
Dugm! Duk duk's!
He changed the horses and took out the martial arts skill he was training in.
Srats! Jrat!
His concentration and focus were shifted only for a short while, but the enemy had already launched a backlash.
‘Ugh, I underestimated them too much. After all, they are a lot. I have to more quickly overcome the inequality of this amount.’
He looked at the one Forest Cat Beastman that was within his reach. Immediately, he strangled his neck, put up the horses, and threw them at his friends. The four of them would at least be busy for a while. There are 6 more left.
Targeting one, he immediately approached and growled. His growl made the feathers of his enemy stand up. After all, their animal instincts were still there. From the very beginning, they had known that the Jaguar King was at the top of the food chain.
“Hiik!”
The double!
The blow with energy killed him. The other five friends did not stay silent to see their friends one by one die. Some of them were able to injure the Jaguar King. But it's still not enough.
With the Silent Step skill, the Jaguar King easily dodged from their encirclement. The injuries were getting more and more, but there were still more Forest Cat Beastmen that needed to be dealt with.
The Nine Forest Cat Beastman again surrounded him.
“Give up, and we'll take care of you painlessly.”
“Mwehehe, I cannot wait to bring your head to the Lion Emperor,”.
Shuts!
An object at high speed led to one of the Forest Cat Beastmen. Immediately, it struck and resulted in instant death.
“Hmm?”
Seeing his friend fall abnormally, their attention was turned to the figure of someone in a black robe.
“Who is it?!” ask the remaining Forest Cat Beastman.
The figure came down from the tree branch. It was evident from his movements that he was an Assassin expert. Without much talking, he finished off the rest of the Forest Cat Beastman easily. Without a single sweat.
The Jaguar King was barely even able to see let alone follow his movements with his eyes. It's hard to believe that there's someone so great in this forest.
“Si– who are you?” ask her with a vibrating tone.
“No need to fear. I am the messenger of the Gods to help you. You could say, I am the embodiment of the answer to your prayer. May Lord Zaenus always bless you.”
After saying that, he then left as soon as he arrived.
‘Answers for my prayers ... to the Gods? So, God replied to my prayer?’
He smiled happily now. He finally got his answer. The answer he had and always awaited.
From the very beginning, there was no way he would come alone to this forest without an escort. He did so on the basis of the instructions given by something that named itself a God. Something that says he will always be with her, as long as he believes her.
