The Executed Sage Reincarnates as a Lich and Begins a War of Aggression Chapter 279: The Sage Remembers a Certain Herald

By the way, Demon Lord-sama, do you know where those twins went?

I havent seen them.

While answering, I used perception magic to locate them.

I was able to detect approaching presences, so I told Luciana.

Speak of the devil, theyve co.

A boy and a girl appeared from the rear passage.

Both of them had maroon hair, blue eyes, and exactly the sa face.

However, there was a big difference in their overall appearance.

The boy dressed like a bandit.

On the other hand, the girl wore elegant clothes reminiscent of aristocratic daughters.

Commander, lets fight!

The boy shouted cheerfully as he sprinted down the corridor.

His movents couldnt be seen properly by ordinary people.

He seed to accelerate.

The boy pulled out his hatchet and tried to slash at .

It's sudden

I used defensive magic and blocked the slash.

At the mont of impact, a crack ran through the magic barrier.

Before it was destroyed, I converted the energy from the impact into steam and ejected it in front of the barrier.

Oops!

The boy jumped backwards as he spun to avoid it.

He landed on four limbs.

He happily played with the hatchet and licked his lips.

Just as he was about to rush forward again, a hand was placed on his shoulder.

The one who stopped the boy was an expressionless girl.

As she ca before , she pulled at her sleeves and asked with upturned eyes.

Training, I want to do it together. Is that okay?

The girl asked cutely.

However, in the hand she hid behind her, there was an unsheathed dagger ready to be swung.

I couldnt feel any killing intent, but if I showed any openings, there was no doubt she would imdiately strike.

Geez, what troubleso twins

I glanced at the pair again.

The appearance of these two made recall my forr subordinate.

I thought that they would beco more and more similar to him as they grew up.

These twins were descendants of the archer, Henry Blakin.

The boy was Kenny Blakin, while the girl was Lana Blakin.

They usually lived in the world under Lucianas jurisdiction, where they served as the executives of the Demon Lords army in that world.

We got to et sotis, but they always wanted to fight against .

Their personality was exactly as what one expected from Henrys lineage.

Their ancestor, Henry Blakin, breathed his last at 90 years old.

At that ti, there was an incident in which a strange monster attacked from a dinsional distortion.

It developed into a great war involving the whole continent, and Henry led an army to the forefront and won.

But after roaring in victory, he died just like that.

It wasnt caused by any grievous wound.

It just so happened that right at that mont, his lifespan as a human expired.

Without suffering from any illnesses, Henry kept fighting until his death.

He could have chosen to be an immortal and earned eternal life.

I could have done that for him, but Henry refused.

He was particular about his life as a human.

I didnt deny his choice.

Rather, I would praise it greatly.

That was how humans were supposed to be.

Henrys values were passed down to his descendants.

The Blakin clan has accomplished various historical feats over the course of 500 years.

There were other descendants who raised their achievents in their martial ability like the twins did.

So worked as excellent aides, and there were others who controlled the battlefield like a ga board.

So wanted to experience the ultimate struggle and stood against instead.

Their clan acted too freely.

They acted on their respective ideas without being influenced by the passage of ti.

What they had in common was their love of fighting.

Regardless of what shape it took, they showed their respective shining monts.

Their strength always gives us a fresh feeling.

Their opinions and thoughts about mortals were valuable.

Most of the executives in the Demon Lords Army were non-humans.

Among people whose values could be skewed, their remarks as humans would sotis be a great help.

Their existences couldnt be taken lightly regardless of the era.

Just as I recalled the figure of Henry drinking his liquor, Grom grabbed Lanas arm and pulled her away from .

With his hands on his hips, he reminded the pair.

Hey, both of you shouldnt disturb Demon Lord-sama. You can just ask soone else if you want to train.

Its aningless unless the other party is as strong as the commander. Ah, I dont mind if Grom wants to train us, though.

Im talking with Demon Lord-sama at the mont, I have no ti to train you.

Grom dismissed Kennys words.

Lana then raised her hand and expressed her thoughts while looking up at Grom.

How about you train us while you talk?

The Demon Lords all over the world are gathering in this world today. All of them are capable people. You can just ask anyone who is willing to train with you, okay?

Grom then explained how to persuade them.

As the two understood that they couldnt argue back, they reluctantly agreed.

Tch, I understand.

Okay.

The two turned back round in disappointnt and ran away.

But as they left, they looked back at with hope in their eyes.

Apparently, they hadnt completely given up yet.

I guess I could accompany them in mock combat later.

Kenny and Lana were greedy for strength.

It might be due to their bloodline, but they have a definite goal.

It was to get the dragon bow that Henry once wielded.

It was currently owned by another mber of the Blakin clan, but they boasted they would clash in the future.

I was quite curious about how the battle would turn out.

When the ti ca, I would definitely watch.

When the twins finally left, Luciana nudged Grom with her elbow while wearing a teasing expression.

You are always great at dealing with children. Why dont you choose that line of work instead?

Are you envious of ? You just suck at it.

Ahah, you actually said it.

Luciana revealed a dark smile.

Just as I thought they would quarrel again, she laughed lightly then cald down.

Then she began to walk in the direction where Kenny and Lana ran off to earlier.

Im off to take care of those two now, see you later.

Aah, please do.

Luciana was familiar with the twins.

There shouldnt be any problems with leaving them with her.

anwhile, Grom sighed and grumbled.

Geez, that succubus is still cheeky even after 500 years

Im glad both of you are on good terms.

H-how do you even interpret it that way!

Grom shouted as if in panic.

His attitude was rather pleasant.

I chose not to respond and walked around the castle
