A Demon Lord’s Tale: Dungeons, Monster Girls, and Heartwarming Bliss

― ― Carlotta Demeyer, Head of the Order of the Knights of the Faldiène.

Nell's direct superior is a female genius.

Currently, she is in a position to play a part in the politics of the country while being a soldier named Holy Knight.

Although she did not obtain any specific position, she is still a publicly held title of "Head of the Order of the Holy Knight", but as a result of fully utilizing the authority gained in the past few years in Japan, and continuing to demonstrate her talent without regret, she now holds the power second only to the cardinals in the church, and has become a leading power in Japan, such as serving as a consultant to the King.

Religion and politics are intertwined.

Soldiers speak politics.

Carlotta herself didn't think it was a good idea, either... Well, it's her creed to use anything that works.

Her excellent political skill, ability to manipulate troops, and human decency.

Together, they climbed to their current positions.

There were many problems that she had to think about, but the most troubling thing was the treatment of Hero Nell.

A girl named Nell.

At first, there were many sweet spots with the girl's character as she looked, but she began to show off her strength and skill at a certain time, and she was no longer an enemy.

Originally, she was judged to have very high potential, so she was raised as the next hero, but now it is far beyond her original expectations, and within the framework of human beings, she has definitely been able to compete for the top.

At least in the human nations of the neighboring countries, there are no more powerful people than her.

How many other races are stronger than humans?

After all, Nell charged at the monsters that had to be crushed by dispatching troops, saying, "You're weaker than the monsters in the Witchcraft Forest," and slashed them with absolutely no fear.

Her idea that she was weak and had to fight on her own terms produced a tragic corpse.

As a soldier, Nell wasn't weak at all.

Even with her simple skill, she exerts unbelievable power from her sumptuous arms, and wrestles normally with several Paladins, so it's completely her own opinion.

I don't think there's any use in it, but I'm actually starting to feel a little awed by the way I fought.

At the very least, you can say that few people disrespect your adorable appearance anymore.

That's all, the battletime Nells were coming out of nowhere.

There is one very important point to add with regard to her assessment that she is beginning to fall outside of such standards.

That is, he is one of the wives of the demon king Yuki.

Demon King Yuki.

No, Demon Emperor Yuki.

Nell is the top power in the framework of humans, but Demon Emperor Yuki is the top power in the framework of even larger human species.

In the recent outbreak of the war, his work was widely known, and the story that he had defeated the Undead Dragon, which is regarded as both a catastrophe and a calamity, continues to be told.

There is no longer so much force in the human species, but more importantly, his influence.

Having become known as the Demon Emperor from the Demon King, he reigned as the emperor of the great nation "Rogald Empire", and has become an important presence in the interaction between other races.

This country, which was able to establish friendship with him early on, can be said to have been lucky.

"... Huh, even though you were a man who appeared as a squire of Nell at first, you've been in a lot of business."

I remembered the first time I met her face, and unexpectedly smiled.

From that time on, there was an atmosphere that was not just a man... but I didn't think it was the man who was going to be this far.

It was likely that Nell had more eyes to see than she did.

Carlotta, who was laughing alone with pleasant thoughts, quickly tightened her expression and turned her thoughts around.

Since Nell had such an edge, Carlotta decided that it was best for her to focus on maintaining the relationship between Demon Emperor Yuki and this country.

Specifically, we are thinking of moving her workplace from Arsil, the kingdom capital of Alicia Kingdom, to Alfiro, a city bordering the Forest of Magic, and having her go to the scene only when something happens.

When I was working for Arsil, I would lose my readiness, but it is the airship that I want to use for that purpose.

Currently, the country is experiencing a rapid expansion of airships, and King Raid is trying to enhance Alfiro's route after Alsir.

He thinks the same thing about himself, but he made the same decision.

It's only thanks to her generosity that Nell is still doing her job as a brave man.

Since you already have a family, you can leave your job, but "I have been raised in this country!At the very least... until this country is stable, "he still works as a hero because of his sense of responsibility.

Then, I wanted to shape this plan as early as possible to avoid interfering with her life... but there were some people who opposed it.

― ― The top of the church is a group of cardinals.

They objected to Nell's move to Alfiro, arguing, "How about putting the important force of the brave in a secluded place?"

Even though he was not convinced of the benefits such as the reduction of external dangers due to improved relations with other races and the shortening of travel time by airship, even if King Raid persuaded him, he did not shake his head vertically that "heroes are the fighting force of the church".

Certainly, even if the relationship with other races has improved, it is definitely from the point of view of defense that we must prepare for it, and there is no doubt that Nell, the nation's supreme force, is in danger of emptying the King's City... but their ideas have been known to Carlotta, who has been in the Church for a long time.

In short, they are dissatisfied and anxious about the status quo.

As other races have begun to take advantage of the breadth.

Not as much as the human supremacists in question today, but they are afraid of other races that their faith will be threatened.

That's why I don't want to let go of Nell, the trump card in the Alicia Kingdom and the Church.

She had gained so much strength.

Carlotta understands that fear, too.

But at the heart of her is a code of conduct for military personnel.

It is normal for Carlotta to move when she has to.

In the current situation, the word is bad, but if you can offer the brave Nell to the dead (...) and get the demon king's help as a price, it would be cheap.

After all, the cardinals don't understand.

I didn't really feel it.

Now, the world is changing, and we are at a stage where we need to transform ourselves, even if we are not responding.

Yes, the world is changing.

We can't afford to be left here, and King Alicia knows that we've been struggling with it lately.

"... it's time for the Church to undergo another transformation."

Humming and snorting, Carlotta devises a plan to push the requests through to the noisy ones.

--In the end, the best reason for her to move was because she felt that she could not forgive those who interfered with her cute sister's happiness, even though she was trying to get it.
