The World of Masks

The ridge of a mountain. It is a low plains area, so the Dark Wizard stares down at the view from above where the view can be seen at a glance. Stare down at the massive crowd watering beyond the horizon. There's no need for such incredible human tourism in a remote place like this. The high flying flags indicated that they were an allied force from each country.

It will not be military training. If you were climbing up to this barren land and training in the military, you should have ridiculed your superior who made that decision.

Clearly, that army is here for battle. To fight the undead forces he and he lead.

"Damn it!"

The cane you're holding is nervously dipped to the ground. The skeletons on the staff give a rattling sound. I wrapped my head around her like a squeeze.

What the hell is going on? '

He was beginning to think his forces might be spotted. The situation is not as good as it seems. It was a time when disguising yourself as a result of the attacks by nomadic people and monsters was becoming difficult to disguise. If such foolish politicians were to sit in the throne of each kingdom without noticing such an ideal, it would have been an intense welcome for the dark wizard, but there were a large crowd wishing that there were such foolish giants. Above all, the fool who thought he was a dark knight made a mess. However, it was still too fast. I thought the Dark Wizard would be able to spare a year faster. However, the projections were gone completely, and a group of troops were entering the plains in front of them that seemed to be bored with what they could see.

'Are you sure the Dark Knight that son of a bitch told you so?'

No, it can't be. There is no concept that they are allied with humans. It was confident that the Dark Wizard himself, who was his ally, could speak.

Then what the hell? Even if you were caught earlier than you thought, you would have sent a search party to identify your own site. Moving our troops to the north of this brute force without cause is no more than madness. If you had captured the dispatched search party, you would have fought in the favorable terrain first, and you would not have let them march right up to your stronghold. It was as if someone had blocked their eyes and ears in the middle.

'· · · · · · · · · · · Blocks my eyes and ears in the middle?'

Unfortunately, there was only one person who could do that. There's plenty of motive. Most of all, it makes sense to think like that.

Boom!

A eerie sound echoes around you. The fiercely gnashed dark wizard glances at Chloe, who glances at the Allied forces proactively by her side.

"What?"

Cloe glances at the dark wizard with a grumpy look on his eyes. The suspicion of bringing a human army to the forefront of the site was that Kloe was under stress. As usual, the blood rushed up on the Dark Wizard's forehead in an instant. He raises his staff, pointing to an army coming backwards into the plain.

"Do you know anything about them?"

"I don't know, how would I know?"

Chloe denied it just by cutting it. I felt stabbed in the heart, but on the outside I remained calm. But the Dark Wizard was not deceived. Everything points to Chloe. He holds his staff tightly and chants the incantation pointing straight at Chloe.

"Huff!"

I can't breathe and my body won't listen. My whole body's muscles twisted and brought a load to my body. The Dark Wizard stares intensely at Chloe in agony.

"You brat, I've had enough of your arrogance and you dare to betray me!"

A voice filled with fury echoes through the hillside. Cloe made a big impression.

'Hehe, can't it be that easy?'

I thought I was too shallow on the old man. You see a vein of blood burning from the back of your hand to the anger. It didn't seem easy to release the anger.

"Hehe, hehe. You must have noticed."

The mocking tone of Chloe raises the Dark Wizard's fury even more. You rub your face in the hood. I live young in the eyes and feel energetic in my hand with the staff.

'Not good.'

I thought I was really pissed off. As it really felt like I was going to kill myself, Chloe hurriedly spoke out.

"Hey, think about it."

The pain rising from the muscles of my entire body is filled with cold sweat. I barely squeezed my neck and shouted.

"I may have drawn them in, but I've only admitted their advance. They already knew where we were and they even started searching."

"Is that the only excuse?"

"Listen to me more. I don't mean to betray you. You know, I just wanted a big, fancy situation so I could kill humans. And it's already done. There's no reason to rebel against you anymore."

"· · · · · · · · · · ·."

"I'm pretty big there, aren't I? In a situation like this, I think the country's loss of power is pretty devastating."

"· · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · That is, now that your reason for wishing for me is gone, will you follow me faithfully?"

"If I had a tail, I'd shake it right now."

Chloe's complexion turns white with pain, and she's always pushing it to the end. The Dark Wizard looks down at Chloe for a moment.

"· · · · · · · · · · · Huh!"

The Dark Wizard retrieves the staff as if it were a bad feeling. Chloe's body falls to the cold ground. Her muscles, barely released from the pain, produce an elongated convulsion.

Tak!

The Dark Wizard slammed his staff to the ground in a loud voice.

"This is really the last time I'm going to look at you. Remember!"

To the dark wizard growling like a carnivore, Chloe nods quietly.

"Go ahead. You're at the forefront."

Chloe pulls out a potion and chokes on it. The pain slowly dissipates and the body regenerates. Chloe hurried down the mountain.

It's finally war! '

You can enjoy murder, carnage all you want. Chloe's face is red.

The Dark Wizard glances at Chloe's joyful back in silence.

'Hmph, that's the end of your bitch's rebellion soon.'

The Dark Wizard no longer believed in Chloe. But this time, I let him go. Chloe's skill was too poor to deal with this great war, as Chloe said. He was raised to be the next Dark Knight station, so he was definitely capable of one thing.

Moreover, if she gains the power of the Demon King and gives her the power of the Dark Knight, she can no longer defy her.

'You can no longer dream of rebellion.'

That's the relationship between the Demon King, the Dark Knight, and the Dark Wizard. All the anger, anger and humiliation I've had to endure so far can be doubled. The Dark Wizard grinned bitterly as he imagined insulting her in all sorts of ways.

The Dark Wizard looks back and sees an army continuing into the plain. It was an unexpected war, but if we drain them all of their lives, the plan will be incredibly fast. Then there's no need to fear the human army anymore. I can swallow the world unless I rush into the enemy camp like the Demon King. Whatever happened, the Dark Wizard decided to think well.

You can see the enemy's troops moving in an approximate advance. You also see some troops protruding and setting up facilities. I glanced at him, frowning lightly, because he was far away. Soon, a sob leaked from his mouth.

"Did you bring it out?"

What they were working hard to install was a probe to find the undead hiding in the ground. I can't believe I still had that thing and brought it into this war. They were really gross. The plan was to ambush the skeletons buried when the army completely entered the plains, but this would be a foam. It would be much more beneficial to strike when the progress is not yet well prepared.

The Dark Wizard sighs once and shakes his staff.

The flatland's terraces shake at once, centered on the mountain at the base. An enormous number of undead stand up through the gap. After the Demon King's death, the time has finally come for the vast army he has been secretly gathering for decades.

The Dark Wizard looks down at his army. A few decades ago, I remembered a time when I fought Humans with an army under the Demon King. He closes his eyes for a moment, as if he were returning to that moment. After a short while, the dark wizard, with his eyes wide open, smiles and speaks out to the human army.

"Well, let's start a war. Humans."
