Crossover Anime: Offering Myself as a Sacrifice to the Sword? I Choose to Be the Great Demon King

After hearing Chelsea's explanation, Kazuma was already thinking about how to escape. As for rescuing Aqua, he wasn't powerful enough to deal with so many of the Demon Lord's familiars at the same time.

On the other side, Leone used all her strength to lift the iron cage.

Akame and Sheele took the opportunity to tie Aqua up and throw her into the portal in the sky.

The entire process takes no more than ten minutes.

"Let's go, Kurohime, Chelsea, the mission is complete, we should go back."

"And what about him? This person saw our true colors!"

Kurohime drew the sword from Yatsufusa, pointing the tip at Sato Kazuma, radiating a murderous aura.

Akame walked over, grabbed Kurome's hand, and shook her head at her.

“Our mission is to capture Aqua, so let Moli handle him.”

After hearing Akame's words, Kurome put Yatsufusa back in the box, glanced at Kazuma without emotion, and turned to walk towards Leone and the others.

Akame nodded and said to Sato Kazuma:

"If you want to rescue your companions, come to Demon King's Castle. Mo Li will be waiting for you there."

"Wait a minute, you want me to fight the Demon King? How is there any way I can win!"

"Then it depends on how strong your desire to save your companions is; that's the only way for you to survive!"

"The only way to survive... what does that mean?"

Akame didn't continue the conversation. Now that things had come to this, it was up to him to decide what to do next.

Subsequently, Kazuma Sato watched helplessly as Aqua was taken away by Akame and the others, while he could do nothing about it.

Demon King's Castle, main hall.

Mo Li sat on the throne, his fingers tapping incessantly on the handle, a sign of the turmoil within him.

Suddenly, the portal made a noise, and Mo Li quickly stood up. Akame, Leone, and others appeared one after another.

Leone threw Aqua to the ground, pretended to wipe the sweat from his face, and said:

"Phew, this thing is really heavy, but we finally got her back!"

"You rude guy! Who's heavier? I'm obviously very light, unlike you, all muscle!"

"What did you say? You bastard! I'll show you what a loving hug is."

"Aaaaaaah, I'm going to die, I'm going to die..."

Mo Li ignored the two bickering and instead turned her gaze to Chi Tong.

"Did you deliver the message to him, Uncle?"

"Yes, I repeated it to that person word for word."

"I've said everything I needed to say. Now it's up to Kazuma Sato to decide. Don't let me down!"

This is a test for Kazuma Sato. If he is willing to come here for his comrades, even though he will die anyway, at least he will still have the right to return to Japan.

If he doesn't come, then Mo Li will have no choice but to send him to his death.

Chapter 340 Hero and Demon King, Heading to the Next World

Aqua raised her head and glared fiercely at Mo Li, but there was nothing she could do.

Mo Li chuckled softly, meeting Aqua's gaze with composure.

"By the way, there's something I want to ask you. How long is the interval between when the gods summon heroes?"

"How could I possibly tell you, Demon King, such a confidential matter? Forget about it."

"Really? Then Aqua, let me introduce you to someone I know!"

As if he had thought of something fun, Mo Li snapped his fingers lightly.

Eris slowly emerged from the divine space, exuding a demonic aura. Her originally blue pupils had turned dark red, making her unrecognizable as the goddess she once was.

Aqua stared wide-eyed at Eris's appearance, her expression one of disbelief.

"Eris? Yes, it's Eris, right? How could she..."

"Do you remember the Eris Festival from last time?"

"Of course I remember. You took advantage of the festival to lead the Demon King's army to conquer the capital."

"She is the heroine who helped me conquer the capital, the goddess Eris, no, she should be called the demon Eris now!"

The demonic seed within Eris has been successfully cultivated; she is no longer the lucky goddess she once was.

Eris smiled slightly at Aqua, bowed slightly, and then sat on Moli's lap.

"What exactly did you do to my junior?"

"Senior Aqua, what are you saying? I voluntarily became Lord Moli's subordinate. In the God Realm, I have to clean up your messes every day, which makes it impossible for me to finish my own work. I also have to give that hero special treatment every day. All of this is because of you, Senior Aqua!"

"Eris, how could you... do this..."

"I'm very happy with my life now, senior, why don't you join us?"

Eris's every smile and gesture was full of charm, and she even beckoned to Aqua.

Looking at the unfamiliar Eris before her, a trace of sadness flashed in Aqua's eyes. She couldn't understand why her junior, who had always been so obedient to her, had turned out like this.

Seeing that Aqua remained silent, Mo Li said no more and put her into the Divine Might Space.

A week passed quickly, and Mo Li was already preparing to go to the next world.

One day, while Mo Li was browsing the system store, Qin Li suddenly pushed open the door and walked in with a serious expression.

"Mo Li, he's here!"

"Sato Kazuma? He certainly didn't disappoint me."

A glint of light flashed in Mo Li's eyes. The fate of the hero and the demon king was about to be decided today.

Just as Mo Li was about to go out to meet the enemy, Kotori reached out and stopped him.

"I haven't finished speaking yet. He's not the only one who came this time; he brought quite a few mercenaries with him!"

"Not too stupid, you know to ask for help, but so what?"

"Among them are many high-level adventurers and archmages. He must have used all his wealth to recruit powerful individuals; it's definitely not what it seems on the surface..."

Mo Li reached out to stop Qin Li from continuing. He had proposed this battle, so there was no way he wouldn't go.

"Leave Kazuma Sato to me, and the rest of you are in your care!"

"Mo Li...I understand...!"

Seeing Mo Li's unwavering expression, Kotori gave up trying to persuade her and turned to walk outside.

The Demon King's Castle is surrounded by a thick barrier, which is usually maintained by Wiz and Yoyo.

The great magicians brought by Kazuma Sato formed a square formation and took turns attacking the barrier.

Mo Li arrived at the castle's attic, where Wiz was diligently repairing the damaged barrier.

"Wiz, hang in there for a while, they'll take care of it soon."

As soon as she finished speaking, the gates of the Demon King's castle slowly opened, and Esdeath appeared before everyone riding an ice horse.

In this situation, sending Esdeath into battle is the most appropriate choice.

"So it's you who've disturbed my peace and quiet? You're really asking for trouble!"

"They're out! They're Demon King's army officers. Everyone be careful. Follow the plan."

"Hmph, I'm in a hurry, you might as well all come at me at once."

Esdeath looked at the adventurers with a disdainful expression, seemingly not taking them seriously at all.

The adventurers pulled out red explosives from their pockets, lit the fuses, and threw them at Esdeath. Hundreds of explosives exploded simultaneously.

Mo Li's eyes lit up when he saw this. He hadn't expected that Sato Kazuma had actually developed explosives.

However, this level of explosive power might be effective against low-level demons, but to think that it could defeat Esdeath is wishful thinking.

Sure enough, after the smoke cleared, an ice wall appeared before everyone's eyes, covered with black traces of explosives. Esdeath looked at everyone from behind with a mocking expression.

"With such meager skills, you dare to act so arrogantly in Demon King's Castle? What a waste of your time!"

Esdeath shook her head and casually waved her hand, causing ice spikes to shoot out from under the adventurers' feet.

The battlefield turned into hell amidst the screams of the adventurers.

In the blink of an eye, only Kazuma Sato remained standing on the battlefield.

Esdeath glanced at him, snorted coldly, and turned back into the castle.

Sato Kazuma breathed a sigh of relief, but looking at the corpses scattered all over the ground, he felt a chill run down his spine and was filled with lingering fear.

"I thought you didn't dare to come!"

Mo Li's voice rang out in front of He Zhen, like a devil's whisper, which frightened He Zhen into taking a few steps back.

"What happened to Aqua? What did you do to her?"

"You should worry about yourself first, Kazuma Sato!"

"What did you mean by the only way to survive that you told me last time?"

Kazuma Sato was unusually persistent about this matter, staring intently into Mo Li's eyes, as if trying to discern something.

Mo Li smiled, but did not act immediately. Instead, he explained:

"You should know about my feud with the divine realm. The hero is the divine realm's representative in the mortal world, which means that one of us will eventually die!"

"I have a way to avoid this death: as long as you and I are not in the same world, the mechanism between the hero and the demon king will not be triggered, and both of us can survive."

"I remember you always return to the realm of gods after you die, right? As long as you choose to reincarnate back in Japan next time and don't return to this other world..."

Mo Li stopped halfway through his sentence, believing that Sato Kazuma would understand what he meant.

Kazuma lowered his head, his brows furrowed. He knew Mo Li wouldn't lie to him; after all, the difference in their strength was so vast that there was no need for him to go to such lengths.

"Can I ask what will happen to Aqua after I leave?"

"Don't worry about that. I won't kill her, and of course I won't let her return to the realm of the gods. With Megumin and Darkness around, I don't think I'll do anything to Aqua!"

"Really? Huihui is here too? Honestly, I was so worried about her, and she's just leisurely staying in the Demon King's Castle. What a bunch of troublesome teammates!"

Sato Kazuma seemed to be relieved all of a sudden, and Mo Li didn't seem so scary anymore.

Seeing this, Mo Li also put away his weapon and sat down next to He Zhen.

"So, have you figured out what to do?"

"Ah, I guess it's time to go back. Come on, let's get started!"

Kazuma Sato slowly closed his eyes, awaiting death.

A sword flashed past, and Sato Kazuma fell to the ground, a smile still on his face.

In the dim light, Mo Li seemed to hear Sato Kazuma's last words left in this world.

"This journey to another world is absolutely terrible!"

Chapter 341 Seven Magicians, Collapse Phenomenon

"Ding! It has been detected that the host has killed the hero Sato Kazuma. 10000 Demon King Points have been awarded!"

The system's belated announcement confirmed that Kazuma Sato had abandoned his identity as a hero and returned to his own country.

According to what I found in the Whispering Chapter, as my strength increases, the heroes I summon will become more troublesome. During this lull, I must upgrade to an A-rank Demon King.

It seems I can start preparing to go to the next world to recruit followers. I hope I won't disappoint myself.

Mo Li returned to the Demon King's Castle, released Aqua who was trapped in the Divine Might Space, and pondered how to deal with her.

"If we give her the demon seed, will it infect her other family members with her intelligence?"

"Hey, I'm warning you, let me go right now, or you'll be punished by heaven!"

"I'm not even afraid of the divine realm, so why would I be afraid of divine retribution?"

After much deliberation, Mo Li slowly stepped forward and glanced at Aqua with a hint of disdain.

Aqua quickly hid in the corner of the cage, looking terrified, with cold sweat constantly pouring down her face.
