Do You Think Someone Like You Can Defeat the Demon King?

Concon, and the sound of knocking on the door.

Gene, facing the desk, did not reply.

Because it sounded, but research (...) was more important than that.

Plus, he's pissed off because the explosion sounds he's been hearing from outside the last few days were annoying and screaming.

If a visitor wants a dialogue with him, it won't be properly established.

Concon.

Knowing it or not, the visitor persisted in knocking.

Plus now I'll even speak up.

"Gene, I know you're there."

The voice belonged to a woman.

That seemed to be an opponent that Jean couldn't ignore either, and when he tongued "chip," he interrupted the work and took a seat.

And when you approach the entrance to the room with a large strand, you open the door to frustration.

"Henriette, I'm busy!

Gene glanced at her and threw up.

Long green hair, long cut red eyes.

Back to back with feminine proportions, the expression is full of confidence and even makes you feel masculine.

Henriette Bassenheim - wrapped in an open shirt on her chest and dressed in a truly ruffled manner, but she was the general who headed the Royal Army.

"Still a shitty guy, though I should be in a better position"

"It doesn't matter. I'm not tied to the army, I'm not tied to the kingdom, that's what I'm here for."

Henriette won't be able to afford it against Gene, who takes a transverse attitude.

"It's fine not to be tied up, but don't you care what's going on out there?

"I know."

"My people were working hard, don't you want to join the wheel?

"Ha, what happens when you do that"

Henriette laughs bitterly, "It's a cold one".

But Gene doesn't go out for that reason.

Of course, I don't have a particular sense of being one of the people I traveled with, so I don't need to go help from the start - it's not.

"You don't know anything," he snapped, turning his back on Henriette, sitting back in the chair again.

And stare at the core given to you by Maria.

"It's pointless, everything"

"That's not even a word like yours."

"... Henriette, are you here to say that? Yeah, I understand you prefer that.“ Friends ”or“ bonds ”?"

"No, that's not it. I simply..."

Henriette trying to say a predetermined dialogue.

Gene's voice blocked that.

"- Because you love humans, don't you?

She nodded contentedly.

"Just get the hell out of here. I'm in the way of research."

"I hear that's the core of the failures given to Maria Afengens, what do you know when you see something like that"

"I can see things I don't know in a duly adopted core"

"Specifically?

"It means it's a farce everywhere. Heroes, satookies, chimaira... do well with the origins. But I hate people who act like they're transcending others."

"Masochistic."

"You're not. I'm the only genius in the world who deserves that role."

That's what I said, Gene shut up.

Whatever Henriette asks, she will not reply any more.

As she gave up and left the room, she looked out the hallway window.

There it is, the destroyed city.

"Bringing the times back into human hands"

It's a sight where people's lives have been scattered.

Henriette puts her hand on the window and stares at it to eat in.

There he also saw the heroes carrying out the rescue of the people.

"I don't care if you understand it's a farce and sacrifice you need to make for it - it's unpleasant."

Emotionally, she abandoned it in frustration.

Then paki, and a crack in the window.

And instantly red blood poured into that gap.

"... Shit"

She looks at her palm, whose center is ripped apart, and drops her shoulder disappointingly.

"Don't let Otilier piss you off... haha..."

He went straight to the deputy general to report that he had broken the windowsill.

◇ ◇ ◇

Life is something you don't know what happens.

Ten-year-old girlfriend, too, understood about that.

At the age of two, his hometown perished, he was taken to church, and at the age of ten, he met Fram. To encounter the origins' imitation, and to be banished from the king's capital to act with Negas.

This is all the turbulence, I wasn't going to be surprised by what happened anymore.

"Whoa, are you leaving me? Well, then."

"Ah, brother! I tried to eat it later and kept it!?

"It's a joke, a joke. Look, I have mine left, so eat it."

"Different shape, a little small"

"I don't know what else to do. I'll put some vegetables on this one."

"You just don't like your brother... well I like it so I'll eat it"

That said, I receive meat and vegetables from a dish offered by a blue-skinned man with a collar on his jacket. This is another blue-skinned girl wearing a pure white dress.

She throws a large piece of meat into her mouth, chewing it as she swells her cheeks.

Then along the way, he noticed the gaze directed at him, stopping his mouth from moving.

And he smiled, tilting his neck as he looked at Saila (...).

It gets awkward and distracts my gaze.

Despite his cold reaction, Seatum shook his shoulders lightly and laughed, rather with his hands on his mouth, without one disgusting face.

"What's the matter, Sarah, you're holding your hand?

"Wasn't the Devil's dish right for your mouth?"

"Yes, no, it's outrageous! It looks delicious!

Saila hastily pulls a buffalo stew into her mouth.

The flavour was undoubtedly so excellent that even the upscale restaurants in Wangdu were unrivaled.

Moreover, they use meat from a rare and powerful monster called Hellheim Buffalo, which only inhabits cold places in the northern part of the continent as an ingredient.

How strong is it, it's status enough to stick one foot into the S-ranks in a little while.

After simmering such a monster's meat for a long time, it was so soft that the fiber could be dissolved simply by crushing it with the tongue and mouth.

In addition, the stained fat dissolves and even the deep sauce is given extra richness and sweetness.

superb.

Without a doubt, it's a first-rate dish with no complaints - the situation was too extreme and Saira wasn't where the flavor was.

Ask yourself.

I wondered why I was having dinner with the Three Demons General + the Demon King.

Sure enough, Negas said he was taking them to Demonic territory.

So of course, you're going to be face-to-face with Sarah, and I imagined that... but it was different from what I imagined.

Sheetum is more of a girly girl than I thought, Zeion is a messy but sweet brother, and Deeza is too much of an ideal butler.

That was similar to what it felt like when I first met Negas.

“It's not what I thought".

No, it's the wrong image in the first place.

Because the kingdom has done its work so that the people have not a good impression of the demonic race.

"... and you do"

Saila squeaks blush.

Yes, and yet, isn't it too warm?

People who are supposed to be hostile have suddenly arrived, but rather generously entertained, rather than coldly.

Be polite enough to suspect it's some kind of trap.

Most importantly, there's no point in trapping Saila, and she has a lot of faith in Negas, so I understand that's not possible.

That's why I get extra anxious.

"Heh, well, I know how you feel. The Demons were believed to be savage creatures that they suddenly took and ate."

Said Neigus, who looked into Sarah's brain.

"Humans lie without taste."

"But when it comes to the kingdom of Gurumi, it's called cruelty that deceives you, blames humans."

"They're the same people who do things that aren't hot, if we actually see each other like this, we'll soon find out."

"Even so, there's no such thing as a human being listening to the Demons. They're sabotaging it."

Zeion seems dissatisfied with Neighbor's allegation that he doesn't like it.

"It would have been nice if all those people, like Saila, would have calmed down and listened to me."

"I think there are a lot of people like that besides you. It's just... I think it's easier for the great guys to have the Demons as their enemies."

Even if brainwashing by origins is removed, it is.

The existence of a common enemy unites man unanimously.

Whether it's true or false, it's easier to control by preparing evil to face.

"I guess you don't think about the annoyance of those who can turn their hostility on you, etc."

If people didn't even give it a little bit, they should have been able to coexist well.

Because it's impossible to fight from the Demons, just in case.

"As for the tough stuff to talk about, enjoy Mr. Disa's cooking now. I've been looking forward to this for a long time, you know?

That's what Negas said, resetting the air that makes it severely painful.

People and demons alike want to enjoy their meals together.

Saila stopped thinking about it once and carried the meal to her mouth.

◇ ◇ ◇

After dinner, Saila is led to her room by Negas.

She had imagined the so-called aginous of an evil organization in its interior, but it was actually more full of life than she had imagined.

The very fact that Negas was bringing Saila home in the first place, I hadn't contacted her beforehand, so it's something I can't help but...

"I didn't want to see the laundry dry dried in Demon King's Castle."

"It's not natural because it's our house, we do laundry just like humans, and we do cleaning ourselves, right? Well, there are a lot of things that I leave to Mr. Diesa."

That demon clan named Deeza, the butler who can, doesn't seem to be the only one who can.

I can cook and clean and wash just fine.

Besides, he was even in charge of educating Seatum, Negas and Zeion.

"It sounded more like a demon king to me."

"Haha, majesty sure could be. As for us, Seattle is more conscious of her sister than a demon king."

"I see, that's why you treat me like that. Especially since Zeion seemed pretty close to people."

"Yes, as a sister, I miss you... maybe you'll see, but those two obviously aren't both thoughts?

"I'll do that no matter where you look from"

"I knew you'd look like that. Hey. So I always thought," Come on, Zeon's got a collar on him, and he's got a wife. "

"That's not hot."

"Heh heh... funny, but I'd be pretty pissed off if I told you that myself, so you should stop. Yikes?

As they exchanged conversations without other love, they reached in front of the room.

Neigus opens the door with the key he had, "Go ahead," he puts Saila inside.

The room is spacious, is there about eight meters vertically and horizontally?

Uncomfortable size to spend alone, but only one king size with a ceiling on the bed.

I don't want to sleep with Neigus as a sailor, so I guess I'll be using it alone.

"Oh, I've never stayed in such a luxurious room before"

A painting on a wall, a vase placed on a shelf, and a fuzzy carpet.

Saila was remembering Leach's mansion.

"Actually, it's more luxurious than my room here..."

"Why don't you usually use it?

"A guest room. Looks like Mr. Deeza's been cleaning up, but I don't think anyone's stayed here in the last few decades or so."

"What a waste."

Saila approached the bed with that said and jumped as much as she wanted from in front of it.

Naturally, it will sink out of my face.

Then somehow Negas approaches the bed as well and jumps in similarly.

"... why imitate it?

"Because it seemed like fun"

The way you two talk while you're buried was a really strange sight.

"By the way, Neigus, what are we going to do after this? You didn't come back to see me."

"As for the discussion, the four of us are going to move on. You must be tired of traveling unfamiliar, and Saila needs a rest."

"You don't have to be in it."

"It's a meeting to decide our policy as Demons, so we can't just get that far involved."

But to say that it was irrelevant, Sarah deepened her relationship with the Demons too much.

It hurts a little to keep him around here and be treated like someone else at the heart.

Negas had no choice but to smile bitterly at her for her blatant expression of displeasure.

Then I put my hand on her head and gently rinse her golden hair and tell her.

"For now, right? It's not like we're going to be out of mosquito nets forever."

"You know what I mean."

Still, the dissatisfaction doesn't go away.

But Saila is a discerning child.

Weirdly and unnecessarily, I got out of bed and dropped off Neigus heading out of the room to discuss it.

◇ ◇ ◇

Seatum, Zeion, and Diza's gaze concentrate on Negas back in the dining room.

"You were late."

"If I loved Sarah, it would have taken me a while."

"It's fine to let people in."

"I know, and that's not possible about that kid"

Zeion says to keep Sarah away from Origin.

Sure, she is an Original nun, but Selah's Believing Origins and the Real Origins are separate.

"Mr. Deeza, you've got a map for me."

"I thought you needed it."

Neigus rides himself out to the table and looks at the expanded map.

"Neigus, this is how you came all the way to gather us together, you mean you figured out where the power of the Origins was handled by humans?

She had yet to tell us why she had returned to Demon King's Castle.

No, it's her house originally, so I don't need a reason to go home, but this time, after not being back for a long time, I'm even bringing her to the humans.

It wasn't just every time, and Zeion was not the only one, the other two were also guessing.

"I don't know where it is yet, but I found something terrible."

That said, Neigus pointed near the border with the demonic territories east of the kingdom.

That's where the place name "Ilyas” is written.

"There was originally a town here, but it was converted into a whole church or a kingdom."

"Didn't we know before that humans had a research facility on origins?

To Deaza's point, Negas shook his head sideways.

"It's not the same size as the others. They call it" Kimyra, "a facility for producing monster biological weapons - more than a thousand Kimyra had already been manufactured by the time me and Saila saw it."

"You're not coming with a pin. How strong is that Kimaira?

"There are three kinds of Kimaira. Less than two metres of small Kimyra, about three metres of medium Kimyra, and more than ten metres of large Kimyra."

Chimaira differs in size depending on the combination of each monster.

In other words, what was chasing Childrens in the Wang capital is classified as "small chimaira”.

However, this categorization was done by Negas on his own initiative.

She takes a moment and tells you with a serious look.

"Even small, all stats are over 6,000. To a large extent, other than agility and sensation, there were over 1,000"

"Oh, shit! Is there... a thousand of them?

One-on-one, the fighting might be better with the Demons aligned here.

But the numbers are too different.

Even if the Neighbors just confirmed, there are about fifty large ones and two hundred medium ones.

Even though small is weakest in stature, it does not exist in this world, such as an organism that can stand up to it, before the number exceeds seven hundred.

"No way are humans going to use it to start waging war again!?

"That's all I got. 'Cause here, near the border? I can only see you attacking."

"I am not exposed to the possibility of losing my own life, I will only use Kimyra to destroy the Hate Demons... that is an ideal development for humans"

To a frustrating zeion, a dissa to calmly analyze, and a bewildering sheetum.

The reactions vary.

"I'll be frank. We can't win like this. Origin's seal is likely to fall into human hands"

"Negotiate a truce. Ha!

"I can't, Sheetum, it's not the other human side that wants to set me up, is it? Instead, we're gonna use the truce to tailor us to the bad guys."

"You know damn well, Zeion, I agree with you."

"But... when people and demons contend, it's the kettle that Origin thinks. We have to find a way to avoid it somehow."

Seatum's thoughts may be sweet.

But in this situation, her way of thinking was important.

Without a stopper, people and demons would easily enter a state of war.

Because the two races were originally supposed to be born to live hand in hand.

"It may be hard to find a way to do that right now. But as a first step, I have a proposition for you."

"Let me hear it"

"Would you like to draw the brave men to this side?

What Negas is thinking of is not exactly the brave ones, but the flams.

If they are hostile to the Church or Origin, they may cooperate if there is a reason “to stop the war”.

But Zeion laughed at it with his nose, "Ha."

"You can't. There's no reason for us to join the Demon Clan, even if we don't have the strength."

"But if we can do that, we certainly risk bringing the brave closer to the seal of Origin, but we may also see the possibility of peace through dialogue"

"Well, I don't know what peace will be like, but like Saila, I think if we talk properly, you'll understand."

Neigas was convinced that he should be able to go at least around Flam and Gadio.

"First of all, it's a question of how to make contact."

"... that's true, though"

"It might still be difficult right now. For one thing, should we really develop into a war and keep our voice to the residents of Seleid who can participate in the battle while monitoring the trends of the humans"

To Diza's exact suggestion, the three of them had to nod.

Even as he would stop the war, Satuki would not try to lend his ear to Seatum's words.

It will be difficult to even go see the Flams, even to draw them in.

Now that a deep gulf existed between humans, there was quite limited that they could do.

◇ ◇ ◇

The next morning, Negas immediately left Demon King Castle.

And, of course, take Sarah.

Heading there is a laboratory near the border.

"I'm sorry, Sarah, I wish I could have stayed a little longer"

Negas, flying in the air, said to Saila, held in her arms.

"Don't worry about it. But in the end, we're going back there."

From Seleid to the border line, the more you can fly, the more distance you will arrive in two days or so.

The two twitch at times, and when Neigus gets his cheek pinched by Saila, he moves to near Ilyeis.

Two people descend on a hill away from the facility, which is their destination, without being particularly found by the enemy.

We'll use binoculars from here to observe what's happening on the property.

Nevertheless, no significant information is available because it cannot be seen to the inside of the building.

All you can do is track where the massive quantities of Kimyra produced there are going and where they are going.

After arriving in place, continue today's surveillance for an entire day.

When Negas started to think about whether time was going to pass without any harvest and whether we should use another method...

"Ah... that?

Looks like Sarah found something peeking into her binoculars.

"What's wrong, Sarah?"

"No, the... I'm in that carriage, should I say Mr. Fram's partner? Anyway, we've been together a long time, Mr. Milkitt."

It is not a mistake.

It was definitely Milkit himself that Saila witnessed.

Besides, there's even ink next to it.

Why at this time, why in such a neighborhood lab?

"Can that child fight?

"I don't think so."

"I mean, a couple of non-combat personnel were brought to the institute of monstrosity," he said.

There's only one reason I can think of.

"Maybe... hostages, do you?

I would have liked you to have said no, if possible, but Neigus immediately shook his head vertically.
