"Make Felix the next Duke. I think it would be best to make Maluburg the number two to entrust the Regents and other practical aspects"

The Duke did not look particularly surprised by my proposal, and nodded back with his hands on his chin beard.

"If we're going to run the Principality ahead of us, I agree. If Felix's charisma meets Maluburg's brain,"

"Yeah. Because Maluburg doesn't care about status or honor, and you'd even think it'd be easier to move on the back. Then Felix, who was so admired by the people, came to the table."

"I am delighted to share your opinion with Lord Great Mage (Maygus). You take a good look at the two of them. I've asked for both of you in the future."

Oh, don't you want me to convince you two to return to the Duchy of Crystal Palace or something?

What the hell is the Duke going to do next?

You noticed my gaze, the Duke kept laughing elegantly.

"Don't worry about the Principality of Crystal Palace. Let's start by negotiating with the Demons."

"Yeah. I hope it works."

"I would like to thank you for a meaningful talk today"

"Welcome. I could hear Mr. Maximilian's feelings and I could tell that Maluburg and Felix were loved, and thank you."

"Ha. I'm sorry I'm a parent idiot."

Stand up, both of you, and leave the room behind.

◇ ◇ ◇

The demons arrived early the next morning. Frey told me that the Demons couldn't fly when it was dark... and when the morning sun rose, they turned to us with the light on their back.

They were all three and a few. There are four gargoyles that look like escorts apart from them. So the demonic group was everything. The overall number is very small compared to that of the Duchy of Crystal Palace.

The luggage is very simple, just the backpack that Gargoyle holds.

This is largely due to Frey's suggestion. She assembled my will and encouraged the Demons to come in a light outfit. The Demonic Nation is more than five times farther from Samarkand than the Duchy of Crystal Palace. So I only brought a minimal amount of food that didn't interfere with the flight.

It has also been communicated that the food for the return will be prepared here.

"Saints. All the demons entered the inn."

"Ooh..."

I opened it because Frey peered in through my window.

Then, naturally, he came indoors... and reported it on one knee.

But I'm getting dressed right now. Jerseys to jerseys.

It's just something to put on your face when you're a piece of trunk, so you stopped dressing on the way. No. Embarrassing (stick).

I got my mind back on it, and I just threw one leg through my pants first, and I hear a rough breath from behind.

"Let, saint. We can help you!

"No, no, come on, what are we gonna do"

"Yikes, I'm bold!

"Don't pull my jersey!

I missed it.

Me and Frey rolling down the floor of the gobble and flooring.

What the hell are you doing, at a time like this?

So that's mine... ok I gave up but now grab the jersey I was wearing earlier...

"Time to get back to your sanity"

After tearing the chop, the light returned to Frey's eyes.

"... What the hell am I doing? These pants..."

That's my jersey.

"Can I have it?

"... ok. That's enough. Take it home."

It's not a picture of a beautiful woman holding a jersey in her chest.

This minute is going to be another instant distraction mode, and the Demons arrive safely in Samarkand and are in the inn.

That's enough.

Others can contact the Demons.

"Saints. I think it would be better if we had a meeting soon."

"Hmm?"

Seriously.

I didn't know you were still keeping reason.

"It would be better if things were carried on while we were stunned by the Saint's buildings and equipment. Getting used to everything is scary. Because even if it's convenient, it becomes obvious."

"Right. Yeah. Let's get ready for the talks by the end of the day. I'll take care of Maluburg and the others."

"I understand. This one moves here."

"Okay."

"Bye."

Deeply bowing his head, Frey grabbed my jersey and flew out the window.

No, you're really taking it...

◇ ◇ ◇

"Uh, I'm in a room in a hot spring facility close to the temple of the meeting place right now. I will send this meeting to you in Maluburg with Fujishima and commentary."

"I don't know, it"

"No, he's a Nori."

"At the very least, be it me or me?"

"No, with a knoll on the spot..."

I just spoke to the report relay style, is there any way Maluburg can tell?

... Anyway.

The head of the Duchy of Crystal Palace and the Demonic Nation are divided left and right in the temple of the meeting place, each seated.

The prospect on the Duchy side of Crystal Palace is Felix. The Devil's side is Frey.

I have a giant monitor in the Japanese-style room I talked to the Duke about, watching the game with Maluburg, as described earlier in the report-style commentary.

"Mr. Maluburg in commentary before the meeting, say something"

"So unite. Well, fine. There were two demons, weren't there? Were you King Oz of Hildebrandt this time?

"Yeah. Looks like the other head of state, Oberonia, hasn't come"

"Frey's country is Hildebrandt. That's what I mean."

What are you talking about?

When I glanced at Maluburg, he looked terribly disgusted.

"Frey took the monitor to the Demon Nation. Does that mean Hildebrandt, her country, was the only one watching me interact with the Duke?

"You're thinking about it for once. I'm relieved. You don't use your thoughts for the sake of the dwarfs."

No, the assumption is wrong in the first place.

I don't have any deep insights or thoughts. Ha.

But I can't even say that, I'm the smart one who laughs vaguely and deludes.

"The human side is just the Principality, and, well, I don't know if that's okay"

"I was able to meet with at least one country. From the Principality of Crystal Palace."

"I wonder if so"

"Yes. I don't care how far Frey is in contact with another demonic country at this time. The important thing is that the countries that control the realm bend over and make decisions about each other."

"Is that a step toward the big goal of the whole thing coming together?"

"Yeah. Try making the Duchy of Crystal Palace and Hildebrandt friendly. The balance of power in the world will change."

"Oh."

"No, it's already messed up the balance of power in the world."

"It is."

"You're here. Samarkand can't even invade a godbird. I'll take a public look at what this means. Fine. It could be difficult."

Me, the average guy.

Exactly ordinary people. No, because the housing app is super cheesy... surely it's already breaking the balance of power in the world.

So the Duchy of Crystal Palace and Hildebrandt responded to the talks.

"Oh, it's time to start"

"Right. Wasn't it okay if you did it about the start signal?

"No, when I leave, it's you."

"Yeah. So is that."

Thank you Maluburg for taking the liberty of understanding with me.

When I left, I gave a good reason to think I'd be intimidated, but the truth is, I just don't want to give a speech.

If you mean intimidation, you've already done this or this... what happened at Crystal Palace, it's called a group of buildings here...
