Breakthrough with the Forbidden Master

Dialogue 328 The Shogunate (Daemon King)

Indeed, if I remember correctly, it was around this time of the year.

--Hakki's army's Oddball Great Hundred has been reported dead ...... Hmmm ......, not killed in battle... ...executed for failing a mission and being responsible for destroying a squad ...... Aonie ...... I've heard the name before.

In those days, reports of battle deaths were commonplace and not uncommon, even if they were troop leader level deaths.

Nevertheless, if there is a reasonably famous name among the hundreds of war dead that are reported every day, it would certainly catch the eye of me.

It was the same that day.

Looking at the pile of letters carried in the Demon King's Castle's office, he was having a meeting with three of the Six High Priests who were in the castle.

--Hihahahahaha, they're the ones carrying out the request from the Bokumates as an example, Great Demon Lord. It's a good thing that they can't even use a human messenger ...... that they are the commander of one of the best and fiercest 100 men and women in the world, because it's a shameful ...... that they're so funny!

--Paripi, what a disrespectful attitude to the great great demon king. Shall I cut off his head and feed it to the demon fish?

--I'm still hard as ever, Miss Yamidire. Don't you think so? The old man from The Lyphant?

--No, Yamidire is right. You are more aware of yourself as a six-people, Zoë. It's a good thing that you're on a expedition, Hakuki and Gouda ...... that took a leave of absence suddenly under these circumstances, Noja ...... now, our three remaining in the home country must support the Great Demon Lord and lead the Demon Lord's army!

--Ahhhh, the old man over here was also a stiff. The only thing I can think of is that I'm not going to be able to talk about it if Noja is around. ...... No, I don't think the story is right. It's just interesting. Heehahahahaha!

That's about all we talked about at the time, and I quickly rolled up to the next page of the list of war death reports.

But the remainder of the day was certainly seen.

Aonie's name.

Mission failure. The destruction of the unit. So I guess that's what happened.

'Shut up!

'Ggaaaaaaahhhhhh!'

There were too many dead people in this era.

I am unable to grasp all of the people who risked their lives for the demon world and the demon king's army.

All I did was at least read the names of the dead and then engrave only the names in my memory.

I don't know how each and every one of them lived, how they joined the Demon King's Army, and what kind of battle they ended up in.

This Aonie is one of them.

A warrior who clashes openly with his apprentice, whom I am now training with great care, with his body, life and soul at stake.

But we know how it ends.

He takes responsibility for failing the mission and destroying the unit and is executed.

I didn't even check the mission description.

I had left the matter with Bokumates in Hakki's hands.

But I didn't expect to know what it was all about now, and figure out the history.

"Aonie ...... you were defeated here ...... and failed in your mission to capture the elves, and Hakki will be held responsible for that ...... demon king's army. You who fought for and served the Demon King's Army until you earned the title of Great Spiritual Hundred, were defeated by the disciples of ...... that I trained... ...

I cannot tell that to the child.

If you tell the child, whose heart and spirit are still sweet, about it, he will feel responsible for it.

It is ...... and ...... for his own sake that he should not be in this age.

But that is a responsibility that is not necessary.

So, the child can fight as he or she sees fit. There is a reason why it is non-negotiable.

''Aonie,'' he said. It's a good thing that you're able to get the best out of it. So fight to your heart's content so that you don't have any regrets. That's no longer the only thing I can do: ...... Sorry ......'

It's because I can take responsibility and feel sorry for you.

It's a good thing that you're not going to have to worry about the fact that you're not going to be able to get your hands on any of these things.

What do you mean by ......?

But that's just the way it is. ...... This Aonie person ...... child seems to be aware of it too.

This is the execution squad that does the Bokumates' requests. That includes inhumane content.

And when it comes to those who do it, it is limited to those who have killed minds and those who are not afraid to do so.

And those who slandered and mocked Aka were the ones who could do so. That's the kind of eyes they had.

But this Aonie did not have rotten eyes. Perhaps she was killing her mind to carry out the task she was given.

The true nature of this guy's true nature was revealed as he had become selfless by clashing with the child.

He's a proud warrior with a passionate and straightforward heart.

That's why the child can go in as a fight with nothing more than a head butt and a knee kick, without any doubt.

And even if Aonie's subordinate ogres tried to side-step him, he was able to leap off of them.

But then, if that happens, it's ...... against Aka.

'I told you! I still have to admit I'm not ready for this!

No longer does this Aonie think about defeating the child or winning. That is not the purpose of Aonie.

She appears to be testing the child. She is trying to price the child and expect something from him.

'Ha, ha, ha ...... discipline ...... then I'm going to end this already! ...... Mr. Macho, ...... I'll borrow your skills.

Nuh-uh?

Huh? The child has only ever lowered his stance and run straight, but this is the first time he's shown his stance.

Down on one knee, hands on the ground.

I see, the start that Macho did in the Cacletale competition, where he exploded the power he had accumulated over a short distance.

Magical crouching start.

It's a good thing that you're a disciplinarian ...... and so is O'Meara. ...... Do you want to come crash your head into it more than ever before? My knees are around my knees, and I'm in such a mess that I can't even recognize my face. And it's insane. How can ...... be friends with you, you redneck!

"Sana ...... the other way around, ...... I'm wondering too. How can you be so gutsy and tweaked ......

Nuh-uh. ......

Why do you think you should go to ...... and call Mr. Aka ......

I don't care! I don't care about that scum anymore! He's dead ...... and that's fine.

After all, the words you are putting in your mouth are not true. The child seems to have noticed the quicksilver too.

This Aonie has some sort of reason for this. 

But that is something that must be settled.

'Then I'll destroy ...... and then I'll let you talk! Let's go! Great Demon Dash Diving Headbutt!

"Oh, ......, if you don't have a mouth to feed, I'm going to give it a try!

Now, the last ......!

Nuh-uh?

What is it? Suddenly, an overwhelming sense of oppression is felt even in this spirit body.

No, what is ...... not ...... now, I sensed the presence of some one ...... approaching here from a little further away than here.

No, it's not ...... someone-not ...... this much ...... only one person.

'Well, no way .......'

I thought that Aonie and her friends were defeated and defeated on this occasion, and then returned to the main camp and ...... differently.

Ayatsu is said to be still alive after the war. But Ayatsu would only know the child as Hiro's son.

That's why I never met ...... I assumed that ...... but now that I think about it, neither Kojiro nor Noja ...... could possibly be with that guy?

You think we're going to meet here?

No, but but Yamidire was more or less connected to Ataturk at ...... Kakreterre, and at that time, the Doji was ...... no, I don't know.

Even if you didn't know Doe as Earth Lagan, did that guy and Doe meet here?

If that happens, you can see what this place will look like, even if it's not: ......

"Child!

But my words cannot reach the child now.

With all her strength, she slammed into Aonie's knee and Aonie's right knee was completely destroyed and Aonie slumped to the spot.

It's not a matter of how much you feel ...... anymore, your knee is ...... shattered ...... regardless of how you feel.

"Hey ...... did you see ......? I'm ...... aka you and ------

Watching him, the child collapsed with a bloody smile on his face and fell to the ground with a pat on his face.

He was unaware of the looming aunt's presence: ......
