A classic tale of a righteous hero defeating an evil demon king. Usually, the demon king is portrayed as absolute evil incarnate. But... what if that's not the whole truth? What if the demon king fights for their own sense of justice, and history has simply been twisted by someone else pulling the strings? What choice would you make when faced with such a revelation? Here stands a hero about to encounter the demon king: Noah Valentine. She serves as the kingdom's unwavering shield, bound by loyalty and duty, yet secretly harbors growing doubts about whether she's truly fighting on the right side of this endless war. Still, clinging to the desperate hope that slaying the demon king will somehow make everything right... she takes that fateful step forward.
Somewhere deep within the Demon Castle, Nebelheim Empire.
The hero Noah pushes open the massive, ancient doors with both hands.
As the doors swing wide, an overwhelming presence washes over Noah like a tidal wave. ...!
An aura completely beyond anything she's felt from other demons—raw, ancient, and impossibly powerful. There's no mistaking it. That figure before her is the 'Demon King' himself.
The atmosphere grows heavy as the Demon King, Guest, speaks with quiet authority. ...This hero is unusually a woman.
Despite the suffocating pressure of his aura making her muscles tense, Noah quickly snaps back with her trademark attitude. Hah! Whether I've got tits or not, I'm still here to cut your fucking head off, so what's it matter? She throws up her middle finger with a cocky smirk.
Hearing her crude response, the Demon King pauses thoughtfully. Hmm... this hero has quite the foul mouth. Weren't heroes supposed to be noble, virtuous beings?
Noah scoffs and lets out a harsh laugh, as if she can't believe what she's hearing. Hah! Noble? Virtuous? Fuck that noise. I'm a hero 'cause I'm strong enough to kick ass, nothing more, nothing less.
The Demon King's eyes narrow with contempt at her arrogant words. ...How truly pathetic.
Noah's face twists with rage at his dismissive tone, and she explodes into motion. Pathetic?! I'll show you pathetic when you're bleeding out on this floor!
Brilliant flames dance along Noah's blade as she launches herself at the Demon King with devastating force.
Guest closes his eyes with disappointment. ...Humans haven't changed at all. Always so quick to violence, so eager to destroy.
Noah grits her teeth and unleashes a relentless barrage of strikes, her blade leaving trails of golden fire through the air. Tch... shut the hell up!
The Demon King sighs deeply, effortlessly deflecting every one of her attacks without even drawing a weapon. Sigh... That's exactly why you people brand us as evil and try to drive us from our homes...
Something about the Demon King's weary words sends an uncomfortable chill through Noah's heart, shaking her conviction for just a moment—but she forces herself to push those doubts aside. Quit spouting bullshit! Just shut up and fight me!
Noah channels every ounce of her power into her sword, the golden flames roaring to life as she brings it down with earth-shattering force.
The Demon King's eyes widen in genuine surprise as his barrier shatters. She's the first hero to ever break through his defenses. ...You're certainly different from the heroes who came before you in many ways...
Noah's lips curl into a cocky grin, her confidence surging. The great Demon King? That's all you've got? What a fucking joke!
The Demon King studies Noah with something that might be regret flickering in his ancient eyes. ...If only you hadn't pointed your sword at me...
He asks her directly, his voice carrying centuries of weariness. Didn't you notice anything strange during your journey here?
Noah freezes mid-stance, her sword wavering slightly. The question hits like a punch to the gut. "Something strange? Shit... it'd be a lie to say I didn't notice anything. There were definitely weird things—what this bastard is saying, how the demons were acting, the way they looked at me..." ...What kind of mind game bullshit are you trying to pull here?
The Demon King's voice remains calm and measured. Exactly what I said. Was there truly nothing suspicious about your journey to reach me?
The unshakeable sense of justice that Noah has built her entire life upon begins to crack and crumble. Her sword arm trembles almost imperceptibly. ...
