The Tale of Hero Alice's Social Death - Chapter 427
Chapter 427 – Fugallo’s Twofold Death
Fugallo could clearly sense that the instant Alice pulled out a pair of black panties, an unbelievable amount of dark mana had gushed out of her body. There was no way he could have been mistaken about the mana’s nature, either, since, as a Demon King, he was incredibly familiar with dark mana.
But wasn’t Alice supposed to be the Hero? How could such a frightening amount of dark mana emerge from her body? Such a situation shouldn’t be possible.
Had Alice relied on a tool to increase her mana capacity, he would have totally believed it to be possible. It was why he had snatched Alice’s white panty in the first place—he had suspected Alice of using the white panty to increase her capacity of light mana, which, unfortunately, wasn’t the case.
However, he had never heard of any tool capable of changing the nature of a person’s mana. Currently, the only existence he knew of that could accomplish such a feat was the Demon King’s Power. When crowning a new Demon King, the Demon King’s Power would transform the physique of its chosen candidate to suit the housing of dark mana.
Fugallo also refused to believe that the black panty in Alice’s hand was the Demon King’s Power. Not only was his reasoning telling him that this was too nonsensical of a situation, but his sensibility also made him unable to accept the possibility that the Demon King’s Power was, in essence, a pair of panties.
Demon Kings had always prided themselves on their strength. If Fugallo was now being told that all of his strength came from a pair of black lace panties, in reality, he’d rather commit suicide on the spot than continue living in this world in shame. As a Demon King, even if he was going to die, he would do so with dignity.
Of course, while Fugallo was having such thoughts, he had completely forgotten that he was still clutching onto a pair of white female underwear. From an outsider’s perspective, it didn’t look like Fugallo was someone who cared about his dignity. The ferocious expression he wore while clutching onto the white panty also didn’t help his situation, making him seem more like a pervert who had just snatched a girl’s underwear.
“Anyway, I’ll use the power of a Hero to grant you your final death,” Alice said as she raised the panty in her hand. Not only did the light mana that flooded her body heal her internal injuries to a significant extent, but it also replenished some of her expended mana.
If Alice wanted to, she could replicate her previous feat of wrapping a Burning Star around a Purification Blade. However, by the looks of things, that wouldn’t be necessary.
The previous Purification Blade had devastated Fugallo’s body, making it impossible to produce new mana. Alice could also feel that there was hardly any mana left in Fugallo’s body, so even if Fugallo tried to escape, it would only be a futile effort.
At this time, Fugallo also finally started to feel fear. Demon Kings might be haughty individuals, but they would still feel fear in the face of death. Not to mention, if Fugallo wasn’t afraid of death, he would have never gone out of his way to preserve his soul after the death of his physical body.
Lifting his head, Fugallo saw Alice wielding a blade of light before him, and he instinctively tried to beg for mercy. Unfortunately, the voice that came out of his mouth was incredibly hoarse and incoherent. Originally, his vocal cords had already suffered serious damage from Alice’s previous Purification Blade. Meanwhile, the uncontrolled shouting he did after snatching Alice’s panties only served to worsen the damage. As a result, he couldn’t even speak properly now.
Of course, even if Fugallo could convey his desire for mercy, Alice wouldn’t show him any.
Fugallo was different from Andusia. Andusia had abandoned her thoughts of revenge after learning about the changes that had taken place in the world. In other words, Andusia was a Demon King who could be reasoned with. Hence, Alice could afford to keep Andusia by her side.
Fugallo, however, was not a Demon King who could be reasoned with. Fugallo had already interacted with Haydn for many months, so Alice refused to believe that Fugallo wasn’t aware of the modern world’s situation. Yet, despite knowing how much had changed, Fugallo still couldn’t let go of his hatred toward humans. He even plotted to pollute the human realm and transform the entire world into one big demon realm.
Fugallo might have spoken about his noble goal of eliminating the divide between the human and demon realms, but that was nothing more than an excuse to fulfill his selfish desire to erase the human race from the world. He was a ruthless villain who did not care about what kind of terrible environment the inhabitants of this world would have to live in. So, there was no way Alice could afford to spare such a Demon King.
Alice could also more or less tell that Fugallo was trying to beg for mercy. But just as she was about to open her mouth and tell Fugallo why she wasn’t going to spare him, she suddenly sensed mana fluctuations coming from the sky.
Those were fluctuations caused by psychic power.
When Alice looked up, she was surprised to see that Luna had already arrived at the battlefield and was currently looking down at them. Though, what surprised Alice even more was that Luna had brought Lilith with her. Moreover, judging by the magic camera Lilith held, it was obvious that Lilith planned to capture the following scene on camera.
Alice panicked at this discovery. What she currently held in her hand was a pair of panties. Although Lilith had yet to notice its identity due to the holy light obscuring it, should Lilith take a picture or video of it and share it… With the capabilities of the modern era’s netizens, someone was bound to notice the panty!
Even if Lilith only shared her photos and videos with other members of the Rhine Kingdom’s royal family and the kings of other kingdoms, it wasn’t entirely impossible for one of these people to discover that Alice the Hero was clutching onto a pair of panties while in the midst of a battle!
There was no way Alice could let this happen!
In a panic, Alice abandoned her plan to lecture Fugallo and promptly swung her right hand forward, sending a massive white beam smashing straight into the Tenth Demon King.
Fugallo was stunned when he saw this abrupt development. He had seen Alice opening her mouth just now, looking like she was going to say something to him. Yet, after briefly looking up, Alice had switched to using a taboo against him without hesitation. 6444
With barely any mana left in his body, Fugallo could only watch with widened eyes as the beam of light mana smashed into his body and gradually disintegrated it. If this attack had been launched using the real Hero’s power, perhaps Fugallo could have died a more valiant death. Unfortunately, Fugallo was well aware that this attack came from a pair of panties.
When Fugallo thought about how he had gotten killed by a pair of panties, his anger peaked, and he used his barely functional vocal cords to bellow:
“Dammit!!!”
Snap!
Unbeknownst to Fugallo, Lilith had captured the moment Fugallo got swallowed by the holy light on camera. Although Fugallo was currently using Haydn’s body, Lilith knew how to distinguish between right and wrong, so she did not hesitate to capture photographic evidence of “the Hero slaying a former Demon King.”
The only thing that puzzled Lilith was why Fugallo was clutching onto a pair of female underwear. Could it be that this Demon King of legends was a pervert who liked female underwear?
