After Being Sold Out By The Empire, I Decide To Assist The Demon King

"call……"

Ira sighed softly. He stood alone on the terrace at night, looking at the sky filled with stars... He was not lamenting the injustice of fate, or suffering from the drama of his own life.

Maybe he will do this at some point, but right now he doesn't have the time and energy for the time being.

Next, Yila will face the calamity of [Resurrection of the Dead]. Tomorrow, he will be the first to remind the people he knows that the next disaster may fight with people they are familiar with.

Ira didn't need to think on her own to know that the souls of Uther and Favignho are probably in the hands of the snake. It is also very obvious that the elves will face the elves, and the monsters will face the monsters.

However, according to Shexie, if those souls return to the disaster, they can rely on the subjective consciousness of those souls to release part of the water... So, it may be more like——

The long-lost [reunion] is here.

"well……"

Yila couldn't help but sighed again, and he couldn't help being a little tangled again... Since the world is already like this, then what's the point of thinking about how to deal with disasters?

For a long time, Yila has been very concerned about dealing with disasters, because he needs to preserve the vitality of the world as much as possible, which is naturally normal... But now, there is a problem with this meaning.

Imagine.

Suppose there are two railways like this, one person is tied to one of the rails, and 5 people are tied to the other rail, and you are holding a joystick that can remotely control the rails...

Well, it's the classic Trolley Problem, but...

If shaking the joystick in your hand can only move one of the parties who are about to be crushed to death to the rear, so that one of them will die later... Then, is it necessary to pull this lever?

Sooner or later you will die.

And it takes a lot of effort to pull the lever.

...

However, reality is not a [puzzle] after all, there are accidents and miracles in reality... maybe, everything can be properly resolved in the end, and it will not be reduced to the destruction of the world, and he runs away with the soul of civilization.

But Ira also knew that it was a miracle, a miracle is something that can only be expected, unexpected... And this is the most deadly contradiction, because he has never been such a person himself, and he is not used to thinking of possibilities. above reality.

What kind of thing to do depends on what kind of status quo is, he has always thought so.

However, the current [status quo] and his rationality told him that no matter what he did, it was useless, the best choice was to accept it from the heart, and be mentally prepared to run away with the bucket in advance.

"It's really, really bad."

Ira couldn't help sighing like this. He stood by the railing of the balcony and looked at the dense stars in the sky.

"..."

"Hey, Ira, are you okay? Why have you been in a daze since you came back from Silvermoon Tree Garden?"

Vera's voice came from the corridor behind, and then she walked to the side of Ira who seemed to be unresponsive, and followed his gaze...but only saw the night sky.

"Is my [muddled] obvious?"

Vera nodded to Yila's question, still studying what Yila was looking at, and said, "Of course, everyone should have found out... What's going on?"

If other people are always in a daze and meditate, then I think it will not be too strange, but if this person is Yila now, then it will be too scary. After all, Yila's usual performance proves that he is definitely not a person who will be confused. existence so far.

However, for Vera [What is going on? ] question, but Yila didn't know where to start, and... Yila didn't really want to convey her negative emotions.

"I'm fine, I'm just thinking about the disaster."

Ira said so.

"Did you tell the meeting? The disaster of the resurrection of the dead may be just a discussion."

As Vera spoke, she looked at Yila's expression and his lifeless eyes. She, who was usually dull, said very shrewdly at this moment: "Did something happen? The way you look now...is powerless. .”

Powerless? That's really bad.

"Did anyone else notice that something was wrong with me?"

Ira asked this question, and he got the answer he wanted from the face of Vera who was nodding casually, he sighed: "If you have noticed it, it means that my expression control is really out of control .”

This sounds contemptuous, after all, there is something about [you have already noticed it].

However, Vera couldn't make complaints at this time...

"Is something really wrong?"

Even Vera, who is very nervous, asked this question. What did she realize, and she already had a guess: "Could it be that you have to sacrifice yourself to save the world? Or are you the disaster that will destroy the world?" One of them? Or... the world is hopeless?"

"..."

Can Vera guess it? !

"It's probably a trick..."

Ira complained softly. He could almost guess what Vera was thinking, and he also knew that Vera's random guessing was well-founded, but... Vera may be smart, but she is definitely not a clever one, so she hit it by mistake. Guessing the truth is just a scam.

"ah?"

Vera, who couldn't hear clearly, raised a question.

"..."

In silence, Yila sighed again, and said, "Oh, well... I might feel better if I talk to you. First of all, this world is really hopeless."

"What?! Wait, in this case, don't you also..."

For the surprised Vera, Yila also knew what she would think, so she said straightforwardly: "But I can still save you. When you are all dead, I will escape to other worlds... and take all the people from all over the world with you." Soul together."

Saying this, Ira told Vera all the truth in detail, including the matter of the snake slough, and he watched from surprise, shock, fear, and slowly turned into a relaxed Vera... Are you so worried?

"Oh, to put it bluntly, you can still escape with us..."

Vera said so.

And Yila immediately shook her head and made corrections: "It's not [taking you], but after you die, I will carry you and the soul of civilization, and I will flee again."

But Vera didn't care about Yila's correction at all. She just spread her hands and said casually: "Understood~ I'm going back to sleep, Ira, you go to bed early too~"

"..."

Ira: "???"

Although I don't understand why Vera didn't react at all, Yila still shouted towards Vera's back: "Vera! Don't spread this kind of information indiscriminately, otherwise it may cause people to panic."

For Ira's words, Vera just gave a high thumbs up, then turned her head chicly, poked her chest with her thumb confidently, and said with seriousness: "Don't worry, I'm not an incompetent person." A man who judges the situation."

"Maybe I usually have no mouth, but at this time... please believe me!"

"..."

"Ha, I believe you..."

Ira couldn't help chuckling, then paused, and added...

"as always."

—————————

Five days later, the whole world knew the news.

...

Vera: "Hey, can we reconcile?"

Ira: "At this moment?! Vera, are you kidding me?!!!!"
