The Demons In the Reverse Harem Game Are Obsessed With Me Chapter 44.1

The shield that was on the top floor of the tower, which appeared just like a beautiful bead of light from the outside, had been no different from a completely pristine cage with no chance to escape from the inside at all. That smooth, seamless shape had made him feel as though he was actually trapped within the deep sea.

Legion lowered his gaze as he began to sense the fervent discomfort. On the other hand, Julia was still feeling conflicted while sitting right beside the Demon King.

On top of that, Bael's eyes were fixed on Julia. To be exact, he had actually been staring at Legion's hand that was wrapped around her waist. Upon seeing those intensely burning eyes as if he wanted to cut that hand off at any moment, Legion began clenching his teeth in response.

'Disgusting bastard.'

All of the demons' mindset was basically the same. Whether it was for fun or for the sake of survival, they would skillfully dig into their opponents' weak spots.

No matter how strong a person could be, in the end, there were still some imperfect gaps that got left behind since they had only been human beings. And the demons would touch the things that they had never wanted to reveal at all—they were truly the worst of those evils.

'I still can't forgive you for deceiving Julia. And in that case, I'd rather……'

A trail of blue mana started to swirl from Legion's grip. Now that the Demon King was rendered incapacitated on a rare occasion, it became an opportunity to take a chance and kill him before returning to the Human Realm together with Julia. Julia might be shocked and taken aback at first, but eventually, she would come to understand his true feelings. No matter what she herself had thought about it, this place was definitely harmful to Julia.

The moment when the soul sword had started to vibrate, the trudge of rough footsteps were quickly approaching beyond the wide open door at the same time. A demon who was wearing a black military uniform and a long ponytail jumped inside as soon as Legion had clicked his tongue while pulling back his strength.

“Little key, are you okay?!”

“Agares.”

“I heard from Kimaris and came here right away. Did you get hurt?”

She—the second person in charge of the Demon Realm—seemed to have already guessed the situation just by taking a quick look at the vast top floor. She hesitated for a moment right at the front of the unfamiliar shimmering veil before she straight away ran inside and hugged Julia.

“What a relief that this had happened as I was still away from the nest for a while.”

“Did the inspection go well for you?”

“Little key.”

“What?”

“Thank you for saving the Master.”

Her face stiffened awkwardly at her first thank you which she had ever heard. Agares brushed Julia's cheek once before she then proceeded to lift the King from the floor. Shortly thereafter, a somewhat exhausted Barbatos made his appearance.

He leaned against the door while panting hard and soon, he raised his head. His gaze was directed straight at the magical power that was pushing behind Julia's shield.

“To think the power of magic resistance is actually this much…”

As he narrowed his forehead, Barbatos gradually passed the vast altar and stood in front of the glistening shield. Then, after taking a quick deep breath, he eventually continued his steps and got down on one knee.

Even during that brief moment, Bael's wounds were already healing themselves at an astounding rate. The exposed bones eventually became concealed behind his reddened skin.

“Master, I've come to pick you up.”

“Let's not talk for too long here and get down soon. Little key, do keep up.”

“Yes.”

Julia slowly let out a sigh of relief as the three demons gradually left. With this, they had all been safe. She glanced at the top of her view, then hurried her steps altogether.

Meanwhile, Legion, who was simply trailing after them from behind, suddenly looked back before leaving the door. Right in the center of the huge open hall, the crystal ball was still standing there while emitting such a brilliant light.

'I thought that someone had called out.'

With the exception of the sound of the wind gusting about, the vast space was as quiet as the dead. After shrugging his shoulders, he followed after Julia and turned his head without any signs of hesitation.

An altar in the tower with no one there at all. Nevertheless, a stream of purple magic was slowly permeating through the bleak air.

It was a night where the blood-red moonlight flowed through the window. The Demon Castle, which had been devastated by the rampage of the magic stone from earlier, was once again submerged in such heavy silence. It was all in order to not disturb the resting King who had finally returned, but with a serious injury.

A demon's resilience was proportional to their own magic power. In that sense, Bael's resilience was completely unmatched. However, in today's case, his entire body had literally been damaged right after confronting the Demon God head-on. Therefore, even Bael would have needed a good night's rest.

As he woke up from a deep slumber, Bael slowly proceeded to lift his eyelids. His body was all heavy and sore. He didn't have any memories after being swept away by the rampaging magic stone, so it felt like he was just having a long nightmare instead.

It had been the moment when Bael was just about to raise his upper body while touching his throbbing forehead. A small, thin breath softly tickled his ears.

The soft moonlight was drifting across Julia's forehead as she slept while leaning against him.

'What kind of a situation is this?'

Bael then found a half-dried towel in her hand. There was a pool of blood in the wash bowl, which had already been placed on a table just a short distance away. This alone was enough to discover the reason why this human had fallen asleep while leaning against his bedside. Still, he couldn't understand it at all.

'Why would you even do such a useless thing……'
