The Porter Is Not Interested in the Hero Party

50 – MOOD FOR LOVE (12)

Kiberes smelled the body odors of demons carried by the wind. The smell of blood intermittently mixed with the familiar ironclad smell. Among the demons, the strongest warriors took pride in smelling blood from their bodies.

Kiberes thought it was very strange. For what was once seen as a symbol of fighting spirit and bravery, is now seen as nothing more than a symbol of cruelty and savagery. She shook her handcuffs and prepared to walk forward.

“Then according to the treaty! I will hand over the recruits from Kiberes!”

The good-voiced soldier shouted and released the handcuffs from her hands. The sword she used was hanging from Kayberes’ waist, and her armor was well polished, so she could put it into action right away. When he looked up, he could see the army of demons filling the horizon.

“Five! Kiberes! my love! Run right now and come into my arms!”

Damon was there. They brought quite a lot of troops for the hostage exchange. Was it the intention to attack on the spot if the human power was worth trying? Kiberes laughed, lowering his head so that Damon could not see him.

“It is time to go. Asmodian.”

The guard tapped her on the back with a condescending tone. Kayberes nodded and moved forward. Actually, I knew it would be like this. Didn’t they say that love is the first person to fall for? That’s why, it was inevitable that she was walking fast toward the demons and that Damon was opening his arms to him.

****

“If you tell me you love me, I can do anything.”

At that time, Kiberes said that and reached out his hand. The porter brushed her hand lightly and moved it to the ball. and said to her:

“…Cruel.”

It was then that he showed himself an emotional expression for the first time. A sad expression that makes you laugh and cry at the same time. I didn’t know why he made that face. She loves him, but he won’t love her at all. I wondered what was stirring his emotions.

******

“It was just, it was just a complaint.”

Saying that, Kayberes raised his head. Curly hair fluttered in the wind. Her hair got caught in her pointy ears, typical of demons, and it got on her nerves. Damon was gnashing his teeth while smiling brightly, and the demon soldiers were giving her strange glances.

In the future, their gaze will change to hatred and anger.

“It was like a complaint about whether it was okay to say that I love you.”

In the kingdom, Kebereth realized that the porter did not love him. But at the same time, she also realized that her love for her did not grow cold even after realizing the cold performance of the porter. As the saying goes, if you fall in love first, you lose, she was tied to love and couldn’t escape.

And now she was going to Damon.

Standing a few paces ahead of the soldiers, he seemed eager to erase any inappropriate rumors between him and Caybereth. Because Caybereth knew Damon well, he could predict what he would do next. I would hug her tightly so she wouldn’t push me away, turn around so that the demons could see, and put her in her carriage and go back laughing.

So, before she did that, she wanted to hear one word that she loved her. Every time I faced those disgusting things, I thought I would be able to bear it if that voice rang in my ears.

Even if it was a false love, it was an excuse enough to give my life.

*****

“…..I can’t. I can’t say that.”

At the words that came out of the porter’s mouth, Caybereth froze. The porter shook his head and contorted his face. It was the most emotional thing she had ever seen, in stubborn refusal. Leaning against a tree, he shook his head and let out a deep sigh, understanding the weight of his words.

“…is it that hard to say that you love me?”

“…..If you choose that risky strategy, will you remain in the kingdom? If I don’t say I love you, can you stay in the kingdom?”

“….Yes.”

said the porter. He looked a bit confused as he spoke.

“…..I hate you. I hated him because he was a demon. But… … . But after seeing you cry at the magic stone exchange, hating you felt a bit strange and awkward. I don’t love you, but I don’t want to force you to join the operation by relying on my false love.”

Kayberes was saddened to hear that he hated him and didn’t even love him, but on the other hand, he felt strangely better. Watching the man she thought was full of ruthless smoke with no possibility, with his mask cracked and talking gibberish, he could feel another love welling up in her heart.

The porter held his head and rolled his eyes, then opened his mouth.

“I don’t love you. However, I don’t want you to go into limbs. I want you to continue fighting with us here.”

“…Even though it’s a more dangerous road?”

“Every operation has risks. There is no such thing as a safe operation.”

“….. I am confident. I can infiltrate them, establish contacts and provide real-time information for you guys.”

“But you don’t want to go, do you?”

At the porter’s words, Kiberes was at a loss for words.

******

“right. I didn’t want to go.”

Kayberes nodded. And he touched the knife at his waist. She now knew where the kingdom’s forces were ambushed. The army of the demons, not knowing that they were on their limbs, was vigorously raising their spear blades forward.

A forest that can be seen by turning one’s head.

Thousands of Royal Army cavalrymen were waiting for a signal in that forest.

The hill behind them.

The troops, who had departed just before the start of the agreement, were already on top of the hill and were waiting with thorough preparation.

“Lovely Kiberes! Jump into my arms!”

Damon spread his arms in a defenseless position. Kiberes thought of the porter again. The porter, who said he didn’t love her, ironically let her know that he had affection for her by saying that he didn’t love her.

That was enough.

I don’t want to run to the limb on purpose, fooled by love.

The fact that he was worried about her was enough for her to risk her life right here.

like humans say

Because the person who fell for you in the first place was at fault.

“Kiberes!”

Damon came running. He was well aware of his skills. He could easily defeat low-level demons, but among nobles, he was a chaff with nothing other than the fact that he was of the demon king’s lineage. He was running towards him without pulling out his weapon and not wearing proper armor.

Kayberes smiled brightly and called Damon’s name.

“Damon!”

Damon’s face flinched momentarily, and his outstretched arms hesitated. Then, with a smile on her face, she put her hand on her hip and took a big step forward. Damon flew into the air and looked puzzled as she reached for the hilt.

Damon’s bodyguards were obscured by Damon and did not see Kebereth’s actions, and the soldiers did not understand the meaning of her reaching for the hilt.

“Come on, sleep… … !”

Only Damon reached out his hand, calling her name with quick judgment befitting the lineage of a demon king.

And the sword was drawn, leaving a round, oblique sword scar. Blood splattered down her tracks and one of Damon’s arms flew high into the sky. Damon clutched his chest with a shocked look on his face, and Kayberes stood still.

“ah… ! aaa… !”

Damon falls to the floor. Blood poured from his chest, and Damon rolled on the floor, coughing up blood and screaming like a child.

“Quaaa… ! ahhh… ! oh, it hurts… ! It hurts!”

Neither the guards nor the demons could understand this situation.

Kayberes looked at the demons with a bright face.

*******

“….I’m sorry.”

“it’s okay. If that’s it.”

Contrary to the porter’s gloomy expression, a smile bloomed on Kayberes’ face. The porter didn’t seem to understand why Kiberes was laughing, but she didn’t mind. Because the porter cared about her, and because she thought that she would be sad, she couldn’t say that she loved her.

“That is enough for now.”

******

“All troops! Attack!”

Soldiers were rushing along with the shouts of bravery from the Kingdom Army. The Demon Army threw hatred and curses at Cayberes and embraced Damon.

“What a crazy bitch! To betray the demons and join the human side!”

“Protect Damon! Retreat at once!”

With a bright smile, Kayberes cut down one of the demons that attacked him, and ran forward with the kingdom army.

she shouted.

“Let’s drive those filthy demons out of this land!”
