â â In the Throne Room of the Demon Kingâs Castle â â
Before the abrupt visit of the former Demon King, Goul, who now calls himself Gozaru, the current Demon King, Yuiguard, could only remain seated on his throne, with his body paralyzed.
Even so, Gozaru was simply standing in front of him, with his arms crossed and with the same attitude he usually has with other people.
And besides, to his left and to his right were the corpse of the Magic Cannon Beast, DodĂ´n and the Rock Giant, Destroy, and behind him were Furio, Uliminus and Barissa.
⌠Ku-Kuh⌠I can not feel intimidated⌠I am the second wife of Gozaru-dono.
Despite the intimidating presence of the demons present and the hectic magical power of the place, Barissa could barely stand her anxiety and stay conscious.
Although Barissa had gained some resistance to the pressure caused by the intense amount of magical power thanks to all the time she has been working with Gozaru, due to the large number of demons, the amount of magical power stuck in the place was greater than that she could bear, and she believed that if it were not for the magical barrier raised by Furio, she would have fainted long ago.
ăItâs a very good day that we have today, isnât it? Yuiguardă
ăWhat? What do you mean?ă
ăI was just greeting you, brother. I got used to it since Uliminus did not stop bothering me saying that I should be more polite with the clients that came to our storeă
After saying that, Gozaru looked at Yuiguard again with a business smile on his face.
On the other hand, Uliminus, who was behind the âŚ
⌠Thatâs why I should have told him not to use it at times like this nya.
She thought about that while covering her embarrassed face.
Gozaru was still acting like the usual ÂŤDemon King-sama who can not read the environmentÂť.
ăWell, Iâve already greeted you, so I think itâs time we went to the main topic. Why have you been attacking human cities? If you had not attacked those cities, I and Furio-dono wouldnât have to intervenedă
Gozaru said that while pointing to the bodies of DodĂ´n and Destroy that were at his sides.
⌠To think that he would leave them in such state⌠As expected of Goul-sama.
One of the two remaining generals of the demonic army, Princess Snake, Yorumeet, who was standing next to the throne, was desperately trying to contain her laughter after hearing that.
ăI didnât, I just ordered them to retrieve the Evil Magic Stones of the Evil God. They shouldnât murder anyone besides those who stole them.ă
Fufun, the succubus who was standing next to Yuiguard, nodded her head as she arranged her glasses after hearing his words. Those glasses seemed to be there only to make her look a little smarter, but the truth was that deep down she was also another muscle brain.
After seeing the reaction of those two, Gozaru snorted with his nose and said.
ăThere isnât any Evil Magic Stone in the city where I live, I made sure of that a long time ago.
Even so, recently, Iâve picked up the signal of some in one or another city, but it does not take long to disappear, can not you imagine where they will have gone?ă
After saying that, Gozaru snorted again.
ââ In a certain place in a certain city ââ
ăDoes something happen ~? Blonde Hero-sama ~? Itâs weird that you suddenly dropped two big sneezes~ă
ăI donât know, maybe someone was talking about meă
â â In the Throne Room of the Demon Kingâs Castle â â
ăHey, YOU. Didnât I tell you to just attack if you picked up the sign of the magic stonesâŚ?ă
Yuiguard, still scowling at Gozaruâs words, looked down at the two remaining Four Heavenly Kingsâs Candidates, the Raiko Moulin and the Cold Vampire, Juteime.
ă⌠So? Why did YOU decide to deviate from your original mission?ă
Both candidates began to tremble when they received their look.
âŚâŚ I-I-I ru-ruined it⌠I completely forgot that I should look for the Evil Magic Stones.
âŚâŚ Now that I think about it, I think Iâll end up forgetting it after murdering those who seemed to have stolen it.
Both candidates, Moulin and Juteime, were finally able to remember what their original mission was after hearing the conversation between Gozaru and Yuiguard.
They ended up realizing that they had lost themselves in the midst of all the destruction, slaughter and looting, things for which they had not received orders, and with which they hoped to receive an assent from the current Demon King after reconsidering their achievements.
Yuiguard, after seeing the two kneeling in dogeza, could only bite his lips in frustration.
ăYOU, DAMN, BRATS, I canât believe that you completely forgot what your original mission wasâŚă
ăWhat happens? Does your stomach hurt by any chance?ă
ăYOU MORON, pay attention to what weâre talking about!ă
Fufun was sent flying with a nudge after interrupting Yuiguard.
Fufun, who was sent flying by that blow, ended up by opening a hole in the wall.
ăWell, it seems that it was just a confusion with the orders, so I will not say anything else.
However, there is still something that I would like to tell you.
I will not say anything about the Demon Army causing chaos, massacres or looting, however, keep in mind that if you dare to perform those acts in my presence, I will not sit idly by doing nothingă
Then, Gozaru bowed slightly to say goodbye.
ăWith that I have finished, are we going home?ă
After saying that, he leave the Castle of Demon King next to Furio and Barissa.
When Yuiguard confirmed that they gone, he let out a deep sigh before turning his eyes towards Moulin and Juteime.
ăYou guys, do you understand what just happened?ă
After saying that, Yuiguard crashed his fists.
Moulin and Juteime felt as if they had drained the blood from their bodies when they heard the sound of his fists crashing.
It hadnât been too long since the current Demon Army suffered an overwhelming defeat during its invasion of Crylord Castle.
As a result, the army troops were still in the middle of their reorganization process, therefore, if they do not take good care of the humans, they would end up being defeated or suffering great losses.
Therefore, at present, Yuiguard had ordered the most remote Demon tribes not to perform useless acts such as the destruction of cities, looting and killing or they would be punished.
Although he could be called a muscle brain, this was undoubtedly the effort of Yuiguard, who could be called a sage in the current Demon Army which was full of muscle brains.
Yuiguard grabbed Moulin and Juteime from their necks and dragged them out of the throne room.
On the other hand, Fufun, who had been trapped on the wall, away from Yuiguardâs sight.
⌠Yu-Yuiguard-sama ⌠Thi-This punishment is, the best reward âŚ
She was showing a look of ecstasy as her blood spilled from a nasa hemorrhage.
It was nothing more than a real M which was becoming really terrifying.
ââ In a certain place in a certain city ââ
ăBlond Hero-sama, hurry upă
The Blond Hero and Tsuya were running desperately through the alleys of the city.
ăStop there! Hey, Blond!ă
ăEveryone! Donât let that Blond escape!ă
Behind them were some thugs who pursued them with weapons in their hands.
ăI told you~! I told you that you should think a little more about the next name you was going to use~ă
ăDamn it, itâs annoying, but this time Iâll give you the reason, just for this one timeă
The two continued running, turning in every corner and alley that they found their way.
Time after.
The Blond Hero and Tsuya, who somehow managed to escape from the thugs of the clandestine store, hid in the crowd of a bar.
ăIt seems we managed to escape somehow~ă
ăUm, I guess. Should we eat something in this place?ă
They both let out a sigh while saying that.
So.
A man suddenly approached them.
ăYou, donât you want to sell me some Magic Stones? Aah, I had seen you before, in that storeă
The man said that out loud as he placed a bag full of gold coins on the table.
ăThis in exchange for the Magic Stones. If you have more, I will give you more. What do you say? A good deal, right?ă
The man smiled confidently as he said it.
But, the Blond Hero looked at the man with distrust.
ăFumu, Unfortunately, I donât have any Magic Stoneă
ăWhat!? It canât be, you were being chased for that recently, isnât it?ă
ăI already told you I donât have, now, please leaveă
After that, the man kept insisting that they sell him the magic stones, however, the Blond Hero continued saying ăNoă to his proposals.
ăBlond Hero-sama, why did you lie to that man?ă
After the man left with a frown, Tsuya asked that.
ăAh⌠I said that becauseâŚă
The Blond Hero drank some water, then turned to Tsuya and said.
ăI just felt like I should say ită
He said that with a satisfied look.
⌠That guy ⌠It can not be, did he discover that I had ulterior motives and thats why he decided not to sell them to me?
In the shadows, outside the bar, the man clicked his tongue with a frown while thinking that.
⌠In that case, I simply have to attack them when they come out and steal them.
The man stared at the entrance to the bar from the shadows.
However, he wasnât aware of the bat that was watching him from behind.
ăNn? Arenât they making a lot of noise there?ă
ăSomehow~, it sounds like they are~ killing someone~ă
ăFun, Well, it does not concern us. Well, after eating this, weâll go find a place to spend the nightă
ăHuh? Today we will not go back to the cave!?ă
ăItâs nice to indulge in luxuries from time to timeă
On the other hand, there, in the bar window, was a bat -Ririanju, a Wicked in the service of the Evil God- staring at them.
⌠I will repay my debt⌠Errm, Blo-Blond Man.
