I Misunderstood the Date and Saved the Demon King

5. Warriors longed for him

The war against the demons naturally produced many heroes.

For example, the warrior chief of the elven blue moon tribe or the owner of the dwarf steel hand forge.

Of course, there were people equally outstanding in the Empire.

If I had to choose one of them, Michaela would have chosen this name.

‘Sir Lethe.’

A man who appeared like a comet. A person who slaughtered demons in an instant with overwhelming force.

Wherever he went, only the corpses of demons remained. Only the flag of victory fluttered.

All the knights of the empire gave him the title ‘Sir’ because he did not even take the knight test.

The noble aristocrats were embarrassed and showed respect to a person they didn’t even know they were born with.

Even the proud elves and dwarves who were indifferent to humans treated him graciously.

A supernova and at the same time the strongest. The Empire’s greatest war hero.

That was Michaela’s gaze at the man named Lethe, and the words to organize him.

I longed for it. Intensely. To her, Lethe was like the shining sun, her presence so longing to reach.

She was born with the fate of a warrior, so she wanted to be like him all the more. She wanted to be a hero.

Together he wanted to wipe out all the demons that brought chaos and destruction to this world.

Suddenly, I remember that time. As a hero, that was before his fate was foretold.

Those who had just made friends with themselves were attacked by demons and taken away.

After that, he went through all sorts of hardships and barely escaped being sold into slavery.

If they couldn’t escape and were sold as is, their soothers or emergency food….

‘Damn you bastards. I have to leave all the slaughter so that I can’t even open my mouth… Hmm, hmm.’

I think it reminded me of the past. Calm down, Michaela. Calm down.

There’s nothing good about revealing your original personality. I am a warrior, a warrior.

I once saw Lete fighting demons from afar.

He knew she would fight alongside him when the time came. He had no doubts that as a warrior by the side of a war hero, he would condemn the evil group of demons in one blow.

So I practiced cutting my bones, putting in an effort to the point of shedding blood and sweat.

Yes, there was a time like that….

“Michaela. Did you hear the news?”

Haniel sneaked up to him and whispered a line in his ear.

I wonder if he’s saying something weird again, so I’m going to tell him to hurry up and get out of the way.

“The demons. You said you gave up the war?”

“… What?”

I wondered what nonsense this was. Who gives up what? Demons go to war?

I laughed. Michaela was dumbfounded, so she laughed. I thought Haniel was playing a joke again.

Are the demons giving up on war? It was the equivalent of elves giving up the forest and dwarves giving up blacksmithing and beer.

Those who can’t stay still for a moment, beings who are very far from peace.

A spirit that only causes chaos in the world, and in the end tries to create a world where everyone fights with blood.

That’s the devil. That was the common opinion among humans, elves, and dwarves.

“Haniel. Stop kidding.”

“You’re not kidding, Michaela? This is the news I just heard!”

“Where did you hear that?”

Yeah, think about it. Michaela asked in her tone that she still couldn’t believe it.

“The magic tower. I went to get some scrolls, and there were tons of magical communications pouring in. And the content was that the demons stopped the war and inversely proposed peace.”

“Haniel. Go and quietly study magic.”

As if there was nothing more to hear from her, Michaela drove her to her lab.

Haniel felt unfair and said, ‘Oh, it’s real! Did you really give up on the war?!’ I didn’t listen.

Because she had already seen and suffered the cruelty of her demons.

But after a while, she realized something was wrong with her.

“Looks like we lost our jobs.”

As she lit a cigarette, Sella P. Took her rhyme in a solemn tone.

“The battle has stopped. The dwarfs and the dwarves are all fighting.”

“This is nonsense.”

“I thought so too, but I just heard from an acquaintance. I heard that the imperial side also turned all its forces?”

It really was. Really, really, the war ended suddenly.

Looking at the situation, it is said that four strange demon kings purged the hardliners.

After eliminating all the war cryers, he immediately bowed his head, proposing a ceasefire and peace.

Thanks to that, this side, who was confused at first, also greeted them with open arms.

“….”

It is a good thing that the war is over, that no one will be killed or injured anymore.

This is the moment everyone has been waiting for so long. Now no one need fear of destruction.

Yeah, so it should be fun. It’s okay to laugh

Uh-

Michaela found herself gritting her teeth unwittingly.

Can’t get revenge? Are your efforts so far in vain? Yes, it could be

How can I not be angry? I have a past where I was almost sold as a slave to demons.

How could it be futile again? I tried and tried again for several years, but the reason is gone.

But the cause of this burning anger was neither vengeance nor futility.

From noble mtl dot com

‘We can’t be together. With that man. With the war hero of the empire!’

Even though he stepped down from the front line, I heard that he didn’t have any problems with his body.

They said all they did was step back for a while to nurture new shoots.

That meant that I could fight alongside that great man.

Lete. He wanted to fight alongside him. I wanted to defeat the demons together.

I came all this way looking at him, so I wanted to be acknowledged and share the same battle.

How long have you waited to stand on the battlefield with the object you longed for, the utopia, that being?

“What shall we do now?”

“Can everyone live well like this and scatter?”

“….”

It was confusing to her colleagues as well.

I’m not showing it, but I’m going to split it. It will be futile.

Hasn’t he hoped to fight alongside Lete, whom he had met once before?

Michael, Haniel, Sellafi, and Meta. Everyone was disappointed.

“… That’s how we came to be.”

At this time, Hani El carefully raised his hand and brought out my opinion.

“How about going to the academy?”

“Academy?”

“Yes. We have nothing to do anyway, and if you think about it, your age is just right when you enter school.”

At first, I thought it was absurd. But come to think of it, it made quite a bit of sense.

Everyone must have thought of wanting to live a normal life at least once.

I want to spend time with my peers rather than preparing for a life-and-death battle.

It’s not about how to kill the demon king, but about whether that guy likes me? I want to worry about

I want to choose. What do I want to do and what kind of future do I want.

“Come to think of it, the war hero was there as an instructor at the time, right?”

Selapy muttered as she tilted her glass, unable to hold back the gap.

Michaela’s ears perked up for a moment, but no one saw it.

“What do you think, Michaela? It’s like this anyway, so we have to find a way to live.”

“Yes.”

“Then let’s go to the academy. Let’s go there and study a bit, make new friends, and think about what to do with our lives in the future.”

Pouring strong alcohol down her throat from her bottle, Sella Phi finishes her words.

Mehta, who quietly handed her a handkerchief, also seemed to sympathize with that opinion.

“….”

Academy, Academyra. A number of cases that have never been thought of before.

Because I knew I would be on the frontlines for quite some time, I believed there would never be a normal life.

But now that her demons have proposed peace, she cannot continue the war alone.

“That doesn’t sound too bad.”

After the leader Michaela’s decision came out, the next destination for the warriors was decided to be the academy.

After that, well, it wasn’t bad. It was fine. Rather good.

There was no need to get up early in the morning to train, and there was no reason to adjust when to sortie while receiving reports on the war situation with the demons every day.

She is a normal woman in her prime, or a student who is curious about everything in the world.

As a person, she will eventually live a normal life like everyone else.

The academy was the warriors who believed that it would be the starting point.

“Welcome, warriors. We warmly welcome you to the academy.”

Then they saw a very welcome face that greeted them.

Lete. Imperial war hero. A kind of grand senior who fought the demons first.

“Sir Lethe. You can call me by my first name.”

Michaela spoke as calmly as she could, trying to contain her excitement.

She once longed for him, no, she wanted him to do so because he is a junior who still longs for her.

“Hmmm. So, Michaela. Haniel. Cellafy. And meta. Welcome to the academy.”

Welcome to the Academy. I heard those words as ‘I’ve had a hard time.’

To Michaela, Haniel, Cellafi, and even Meta. Everyone understood that.

It was like a big senior’s permission to spend a bit of time now.

He was still one of the role models that warriors want to emulate.

“Uncle!”

“Older brother!”

“Master!!”

The next day. Until the beings called ‘Devils’ who make their insides boil just by looking at them suddenly cling to Lethe.

“Sir Lethe.”

Why? Why? Why? Wasn’t he a figure who was a war hero?

“Why, why are you with the demon lords?”

It was the moment when the fantasy of the hero I knew and admired intensely was shattered.
