I am the emperor of Mengwang

Chapter 443: The Great Sage in Name Only; Luminas Arrives in Time

“Rimuru-sama, maybe… I mean, given the current situation, it might be a little late!”

The one who said this was none other than Rimuru’s most loyal subject, our Diablo.

At this moment, Diablo had an extremely apologetic look on his face. He bowed respectfully to Rimuru to express his regret for having acted on his own initiative.

"It's late, what do you mean?!"

Rimuru frowned slightly when he heard this and asked with some confusion.

“Because I wanted to see Rimuru-sama’s heroic performance earlier, I acted a little too quickly. Now the paladin I’m in charge of has…”

"And I'm afraid it's not just me. Even Admiral Benimaru and his opponents should..."

Before Diablo finished speaking, Rimuru already understood what Diablo meant. Indeed, she did not order Diablo and the others to hold back.

According to Diablo and Benimaru, their combat power far exceeds that of the other 'Ten Saints'. Now, except for Hyuga, the other nine saints are probably almost... dead.

Perhaps because he thought Rimuru didn't believe him, Diablo directly brought over the Water Knight Letitice, one of the six paladins under Hyuga, who had been tortured to death by him.

"Lord Rimuru, this is all my fault. As your subject, I should have thought of all possible situations in advance, so... I am willing to accept any punishment!"

Diablo knelt down in front of Rimuru, his face full of guilt and self-blame for not considering the situation carefully.

Indeed, Diablo miscalculated. He did not anticipate that Lord Rimuru might actually let these paladins go. Even if the probability was very small, it still existed. It seemed that he was still incompetent as a secretary!

I am so sorry, great Lord Rimuru!

Looking at Diablo with his head down, Rimuru was silent for a while and shook her head. It was not their fault. Besides, she did not order Diablo and the others to hold back. Even a lion would use all its strength to fight a rabbit.

Diablo did the right thing!

I'm afraid it's not just Diablo. Even the paladins who fought against Benimaru and the others should be no different from Littis. After all, Rimuru is well aware of the strength of Benimaru and the others.

While Rimuru was silent, the general commander Benimaru had already resolved the battle and came into the sight of Rimuru and others carrying a charred human corpse.

The corpse was completely unrecognizable, and it seemed that he was killed by a powerful fire skill. This person was Salai who had fought with Hongmaru.

No matter how hard he tried, the gap between him and Hongwan could not be made up by fighting hard. In the end, Hongwan killed him with just one attack of "Black Flame Prison".

Benimaru slowly came in front of Rimuru, bowed slightly to him, and clasped his fists respectfully.

"General, I have accomplished my mission!"

Not only him, after Benimaru appeared, other cadres such as Shion, Hakuro, Souei and others also appeared one after another, and in their hands, without exception, they were either dying like Diablo and on the verge of death, or like Benimaru, they were directly turned into corpses of paladins.

Following closely behind were the three immortal kings. Compared to the brutality of Hongwan and his men, Liuyun and his men were much more decent. At least the bodies of the several paladins who had fought with Liuyun and his men were intact. However, without exception, the three paladins who had fought with Liuyun and his men were also killed.

After all, in the eyes of Benimaru and the others, the enemy had come to their doorstep, and as long as Rimuru hadn't given any extra orders, they could endure it. Almost everyone tried their best, so it was not surprising that except for Hinata, the saint who was under the charge of Lord Rimuru, all the other saints died at their hands.

The sound of corpses falling to the ground rang out one after another.

At this point, mankind's 'Ten Great Saints' exist in name only!

At this time, Hinata Sakaguchi was looking at the corpses that were so familiar to her not far away. Her heart was in turmoil and she felt so painful.

Although Reynald, Arno, and Bacchus appeared fine on the surface, their internal organs had already been shattered, and even their brains had suffered severe trauma, and they died!

Garodo and Filici's hearts were pierced, they had no life left and died!

All of Littis' organs have failed. This should be the effect of some special skill. Her life is in danger!

Salai, one of the Three Martial Immortals, was burned by black flames all over his body. All life force was gone from his body and he died!

Griggs and Grindel were also hit in the vital parts and died completely!

Now she is the only one left among the “Ten Saints”!

Yes, she should have thought of it earlier. Neither the black demon in front of her nor the monsters were something that Littis and the others could handle.

Whose fault is this?!

Rimuru and the others? ! No, the Three Martial Immortals led the Holy Knights to invade the territory belonging to Demon Lord Rimuru, so it is only natural for them to lead their army to resist.

So in the end, the three warriors died, died at the hands of the demon king Rimuru's men, she didn't know what to say? Or she didn't have the qualifications and rights to say it.

And what about Littis and the others? ! They also entered the Demon King's territory without permission, so they paid a heavy price for it, that is, their own lives!

So whose fault is it?

Hers? Yes, it is. If she hadn't been deceived by those merchants from the Eastern Empire, if she hadn't tried to kill Rimuru, none of this would have happened.

If she had discovered the conspiracy earlier and uncovered it sooner, they wouldn't have ended up in this situation.

There was even a chance that if she had told Lady Luminas everything earlier, perhaps things would have turned around.

It's all her fault!

She was too arrogant. She thought she could solve everything by herself, and ended up dragging down the rest of the saints and the entire Paladin Order.

If she could be stronger, if she had the same powerful strength as Lady Luminas, if she could defeat Demon Lord Rimuru earlier, would everything be able to turn around?

It was all her fault! She couldn't do anything!

At this moment, Hinata felt heartbroken, and a crystal teardrop slowly fell from Sakaguchi Hinata's eyes and cheek.

Looking at Sakaguchi Hinata, whose eyes were full of death and despair, Rimuru's eyes were full of complexity. At this moment, she no longer had the mood to kill Sakaguchi Hinata.

Because the other party has paid a heavy price!

There is no doubt that the Demonic Federation won this war, a crushing victory.

Hinata Sakaguchi slowly used the long sword in his hand to support the ground and stood up with his exhausted body.

Seeing this, Hong Wan immediately became alert! He unconsciously put his hand on the handle of his knife, as if he would chop off Sakaguchi Hinata's head if he dared to make any strange movements in the next second.

The rest of the Demonic Kingdom cadres and immortals also secretly raised their vigilance, and even moved in the direction of Rimuru.

Hinata Sakaguchi is very strong, and no one can guarantee whether she has any other tricks up her sleeve!

But compared to everyone's vigilance, Diablo seemed particularly relaxed, because Diablo could clearly sense that at this time Sakaguchi Hinata no longer had the slightest intention to fight or kill.

At this moment, Sakaguchi Hinata gave him nothing more than a lifeless and hopeless body entangled in endless despair and regret!

This guy has no hope of survival!

Hinata Sakaguchi was seen walking towards the bodies of Letty, Leonard and others in a slightly embarrassed manner. When he arrived in front of the bodies, Hinata Sakaguchi collapsed to the ground.

“Rimuru, please kill me! Let me die with them! All of this was caused by me, and it’s time… to end it!”

Hinata Sakaguchi's voice no longer had the heroic and upright tone of the past. Instead, it sounded a little hoarse, and one could feel her inner despair from her words.

Listening to Hinata Sakaguchi's words of begging for death, Rimuru's eyes flashed with a complicated look. She was about to say something, but when she saw Hinata Sakaguchi's numb face and the dead look deep in his eyes.

Rimuru knew that even without her help, Hinata Sakaguchi himself probably had no intention of living anymore!

As for whether Rimuru regrets what he did, Rimuru can say it without hesitation.

“She doesn’t regret it!!!”

"A kind man is often bullied, and a kind horse is often ridden." She didn't want to lose anything she cherished, her subordinates, her partners, the Demonic Federation, and even her...A Li!

She will not allow anyone to take away what she cherishes. She just wants to live happily in this world with the people she cherishes, so she will get rid of anyone who wants to disturb or hinder her life without hesitation!

Rimuru never causes trouble, but that doesn't mean she is afraid of trouble!

If she was afraid of trouble, she would not have taken away Clayman's position as the Demon King. If she was afraid of trouble, she would not have brought Milim and the others to declare war on Guy. Once someone touched her reverse scale, even if she had to sacrifice everything she had, she, Rimuru, would make that person pay a heavy price.

Rimuru slowly pulled out the 'Nianli' that she had placed on her waist. She decided to send Sakaguchi Hinata off personally, which was also to put an end to the bad fate between them!

Rather than letting him live in pain, it would be better to let her, the demon king, give this "guardian of humanity" a happy ending.

'Guardian of Humanity', the strongest paladin in the West, Hinata Sakaguchi, led the 'Ten Saints' and the Paladins to defeat the Demon Lord Rimuru and unfortunately died in battle!

When the others saw this scene, they didn't say anything more. After all, Hinata Sakaguchi was indeed a truly strong man, and "the strong should not be insulted" was an unspoken rule.

"Ryota" on the cliff not far away looked at this scene with an indifferent face that became a little serious. Although Sakaguchi Hinata could not be his opponent, it had to be admitted that she was indeed a "strong person".

"It looks like it's almost over!"

Veldora looked at Rimuru who was walking towards Sakaguchi Hinata with 'Nianli' in his hand and said something in a bored tone.

In the end, nothing unexpected happened, which made this Storm Dragon King really bored!

I should have known better than to come here. It's so boring! I might as well just lie down in the Demonic Federation, eat snacks and read comics?!

Veludela said as he turned his gaze towards Ruota who was still watching the battlefield, and couldn't help but make a suggestion.

"Why don't we just go back to Tempest? Nothing interesting will happen anyway!"

Listening to what Veludela said, Ruota shook his head with a "slightly mysterious" smile.

Then Ruota turned his gaze to the mountains and forests not far from the battlefield, as if he had sensed something, and said something mysteriously.

"Nothing is going to happen?! I don't think so! This isn't a fun thing, isn't it?!"

Listening to Ruota's words that sounded like a 'riddler', Veludela's face was full of question marks, and then his face was filled with an unhappy expression.

Something interesting! He wanted to see what the interesting thing was!

Then Veldora also turned his gaze in the direction where Rota was looking and directly activated his magic perception. It would have been fine if he didn't perceive it, but as soon as he perceived it, Veldora's face changed instantly!

This familiar smell, no, why is she here? !

Not only Rota and Veldora sensed the breath of Luminas, but Diablo, who was standing next to Rimuru, also sensed it. At this moment, Diablo's face changed slightly.

He looked in the direction they were coming from, and his eyes narrowed unconsciously.

Then he turned his gaze to Rimuru, who was still preparing to give the final blow to Sakaguchi Hinata. He was about to open his mouth to remind him, but the words were swallowed back by Diablo before he could finish his words.

Lord Rimuru doesn't need a character like that. He must have sensed it long ago. He doesn't need a little 'devil' like him to remind him.

Oops, I almost made a mistake again!

Rimuru slowly came to Hinata, was silent for a while, did not say anything, but silently raised the "Nianli" in his hand.

Perhaps realizing that her death was approaching, Hinata Sakaguchi closed her eyes. Perhaps this was the best ending for her!

Just as Rimuru's sword was about to chop Sakaguchi Hinata, a blood-red shock wave hit Rimuru.

Rimuru looked at the red shock wave coming towards him, his face changed slightly, and he was about to take action.

Diablo, who was on standby, instantly came in front of Rimuru, stretched out his hand and gently blocked the attack, and the attack dissipated.

"who is it?!"

Rimuru's eyes glared, his expression turned cold, and he looked towards the nearby forest. A sneak attack?!

She could have blocked that move just now even if Diablo hadn't made a move, but... no one would be able to remain calm when attacked by surprise!

And if she hadn't blocked the attack just now, she would have most likely been seriously injured!

Even Rota and Veldora came to Rimuru's side at some point, looking towards the distance with somewhat ugly expressions.

Because they did not expect that Luminas would attack Rimuru. After all, as one of the 'Nine Heavens Ruler' demon lords, the arrival of Luminas was just a surprise to Rota and Veldora!

It seems that this person has bad intentions!

At this moment, Hinata Sakaguchi suddenly opened his eyes. As a minister of Luminas, how could Hinata Sakaguchi not be familiar with this breath.

"Lu, Lady Luminas!"

“Demon Lord Rimuru! What are you going to do to my Hinata?!”

An angry voice sounded from the jungle, and at this time a silver-haired girl with heterochromatic eyes wearing a black Gothic dress appeared in front of everyone.

PS: Two chapters combined into one, the same as the previous few days.

Well, the blood flowed like a river. Except for Hinata, Koneko killed everyone who could be killed and those who could not be killed.

As for whether to resurrect or not, it is up to the readers to decide. It is also up to you to decide how many to resurrect. I just need to write!

Koneko needs to think about whether Hinata should die once, after all, there will be a lot of stories about Hinata in the later Brave Chapter.

Forget it, I'll leave it to you to decide!

Our protagonist will soon appear with our Miss Jing, so dear readers, don’t be anxious!

Finally, a new January has come. I hope all the readers will support Xiaomao. Xiaomao will not slack off! Thank you all handsome readers. (Thank you)
