The plain is quiet.

It wasn't just the Humans. Moonlight, even the witches have died. Especially the five Demon Kings who heard the speech behind Dantalian - Agares in second place, Gamygin in fourth place, Marvas in fifth place, Barbato in eighth place, Pymon in ninth place - were all silent.

“Wow, you speak well. ”

His relaxed voice breaks the tension of the air. She smiles strangely.

“It's only been two days since I prepared her speech. Amazing.”

“Well, he's definitely eating one. ”

Barbatos mutters.

“... But I didn't think it would be like this. That's a lot of speech to memorize. ”

“It may be an instant speech. There are often loved ones by Lady Polyhymnia. ”

“Master Marvas, I'm willing to bet my entire fortune on that. If that were made up in an instant, every speaker in the world would bite their tongues off and die. ”

The Demon Kings whisper. They generally say that Dantalian's speech will bring great chaos to the human army.

The Demon Prince usually fights with his commanders and soldiers as one unit. The Humans they frequently encountered were either Black Acid Defenders or Change White Forces, which were also a long way from the Interior. Therefore, for the Demon King, the inner parts of the army were a fairly strange concept.

There was a reason why the Demon Kings were largely incompetent with cunning or cunning. They lead a united ally and also face a united enemy. Tactical deception was more authentic than anyone else, but he was never used to driving his opponent's troops in or attacking them politically.

But only one.

“You……. ”

Only one Demon King believed that he had always been interested in Humans and that the Demon Lord had to cooperate with Humans in order to survive was different.

Pymon barely speaks in a voice that presses down on him.

“Don't you realize what that speech means? ”

“Huh?”

Gamekin tilts his head.

“Meaning? It's a brilliant plan. ”

“That's not all! It's a revolution! ”

Pymon's face flushes red.

“Human beings are like a matchmaking society. There are ranks in the magic world, but they can be completely changed by your skills! Even if you're a Goblin and you're a wizard, you can become the highest rank by simply stacking up rams! ”

Goblin Torquel, the executive of the Kunkuska Parliament, was a typical case. He stood up with talent and effort, even though he was a Goblin.

“But I'm not a human...... Everything is decided by my bloodline! Even if you become a knight after becoming a natural skill, the limit is at most smoker. You can't jump the vein. Dantalian pointed out the inherent contradiction in human society! … ha! ”

Pymon raises his eyebrows as if he had realized something. She lowers her head and mutters.

“I did... I did!" That's why I spread the plague…… The supply of black herbs only to the upper levels of the human race, the territory of the changed city of Brandenburg, and the extermination of monsters… It was all a ploy for this moment! ”

She got cold all over. Realizing that Dantalian was a dangerous man, she used her connections and resources to investigate Dantalian. Pymon knows the ways of the Demon King here, even better than Barbatos.

I thought he was a smart guy. I admire your wisdom. I regret assaulting this man at an earlier hearing. But she left no doubt about whether Dantalian really spread the plague.

The hearing was so strange. Immediately after Dantalian whispered something, Ivar Rodbrock, chairman of the Kunkuska Parliament, changed his attitude. Even Torquel, who was his henchman, confessed. …… it was normal to think something was wrong.

Now Pymon was convinced. The one who caused the plague must have been the 71st Demon King Dantalian! But the plague was not a real plague. A truly terrifying plague has just seeped out of Dantalian's mouth. This plague will swallow up the entire continent in an instant. And they will massacre hundreds, tens of millions of people. Voluntarily!

Pymon was unable to control the tremor.

She was happy at the same time.

The person who had so far considered the enemy to be loyal had in fact a similar idea to himself. The fact that peoples are equal. that every rational being should be equal, and everyone should be their own master.

Wisely, Dantalian saved the word "freedom" because it was directly equality. I just expressed my resentment towards the nobles. Therefore, the Demon Kings also accepted that Dantalian's speech was simply 'a scheme to divide the nobles and the common people.'

But how could Pymon not know? The idea of equality is rattling like lava down there! He was like himself. It was a comrade of ideas that even the Demon Kings of the Mountains did not understand and did not want to understand.

If so, the story is in a hurry.

We've got to get him to stop talking! ’

Pymon has devised a strategy for this keynote address. Deadly plot. I can't watch Dantalian fall for it. Now we have to convince the Demon Kings somehow to bring the Dantalians here.

“Hey, bitch. ”

Barbato then snorted.

“I don't care if you're acting like a dock rat by yourself. The plague wasn't spread by Dantalian. You're still embarrassed at the hearings? Stop doubting me when I say something nice. ”

“No, it's not like that! A hundred and fifty thousand humans heard that speech. 150,000, plus armed civilians! The historian of the continent... ”

As soon as he raises his head to vomit again, Pymon notices. The four Demon Kings stared at themselves with their extremely expressive eyes.

‘Ah.'

She realized.

‘I...... think I'm framing Dantalian.' ’

It wasn't weird.

She was clearly the most hostile Demon King to Dantalian. From the evenings of Valpurgis, when Dantalian first debuted to the Demon Prince, to the current keynote address. Pymon grabs Dantalian by the ankle.

The plague hearings have been formally convicted of Dantalian's innocence. Pymon apologized for him. In fact, Pymon was treated with such generosity even after he was finished with an apology. It was not strange to feel grace from Dantalian. Nevertheless, Pymon pushes Dantalian into trouble.

From the point of view of the other Demon Kings, I thought, "Will you stop it? 'It was possible.'

Barbato said in a cold voice.

“Is that why you gave the keynote speaker to Dantalian? ”

“Yes?”

“No matter what Dantalian says, are you going to pick it up and beat it up? Ha, that bitch is out of her mind. Hey, now that you've mocked our plains enough, do I look like a pair of hot pants? Do you really want to fight? ”

Pymon's heart grows desperate.

“That's the kind of intention a girl has." ”

“What are you trying to do, bitch? 'Cause it wouldn't be weird to rip your bitch head off right now. ”

“Barbatos.”

Pymon desperately calls out the name of the rival.

“Believe what the girl says. We need to stop Dantalian speaking right now. If we keep going, he'll be in danger. ”

Barbato hasn't changed his face. Her golden eyes dart at Pymon.

“I told you. Shut up."

“ ……. ”

Pymon bows. Even the head of the plains could not persuade him. As the main speaker, Dantalian will be confronted by speakers from the Human Army…….

It was clever. Of the 200,000 humans and Maine gathered in this vast plain, only two, Empress Elizabeth von Habsburg and the mountain chieftain Pymon, pierced through the heart of Dantalian. The powerful people of Dantalian understood him.

Pymon doubts Dantalian, and at last knows he's not his enemy. But the time was too late. If I wanted to save Dantalian from danger, I couldn't. Rather, at the end of the speech, Dantalian and her will turn into enemies. It's not just a trap he's about to fall into, Pymon, it's something she dug.

Pymon closes his eyes.

If only you'd realized it a little sooner.

“Looks like we have a speaker on the human side. ”

“Wow, she's beautiful! Who's there?"

“Well, only a woman can represent a human army, a Habsburg princess or a Brittany queen. Maybe you're the princess in this situation. She's really pretty, by the way. God damn it, I want to fuck you. ”

“…… Barbatos. I don't want to be indescribable about your tastes, but why don't you have some more dignity in your tone? ”

The Demon Kings were chatting about the beauty of the Human Army keynote speaker. Princess Elizabeth glows like a goddess's hair. Even the Demon King, who had lived for thousands of years, was amazed by the beauty of the princess.

Pymon's head falls down alone, excluding himself from the conversation. There was nothing she could do. I just wanted Dantalian to be wise about this crisis. It wasn't Bill who set the trap. But there was nothing I could do for Pymon...

* * *

Princess Elizabeth looks this way as she becomes a giant image.

Elizabeth von Habsburg...... Born a third princess, later emperor of the Empire, and reborn as conqueror of half the continent. Military and political, duel and tactics, civics and diplomacy. A genius who knows everything. Every fan of Dungeon Attack recognizes her as the best hero.

Without her, the protagonist would have died a life of strength. In this age, there is no shame in the existence of Minho who has lost his family and village. Even the protagonist is from money launderers. It's like slavery.

Princess Elizabeth only sees talent in such characters. The princess pushes the protagonist to the end, despite the aggressive opposition. As a result, we completely expel the Demon Prince army from the continent……. I can't think of him as an unusual monarch.

I liked her, too. When I looked at her, I was overwhelmed. Although it looks much younger than the illustrations in the game, it definitely represents Princess Elizabeth with white forehead, silver hair, sturdy lips, and sharp, cool eyes.

A parakeet without unfolding its wings. Or a hybrid who hasn't had time yet.

But now I'm just an enemy that needs to be destroyed thoroughly.

“Elizabeth von Habsburg, the Third Imperial Princess and Earl Evatri. The most famous beauty on the continent. My eyes are delightful.”

Elizabeth's eyebrows slightly raise. Maybe he's surprised to know himself.

His expression did not change at all. I was constantly measuring. It was a shame. I wish I could be more embarrassed...... Is a tiger a tiger even young? He wasn't worth it.

But even so, the atmosphere itself was hard. However, it is rather strange if you do not mind hearing the speech before. You will be taken from me, Princess of Habsburg, if you do not respond more casually. Are you ready?

“I have well observed your great lie. ”

“Oh. My words are lies? ”

The princess nods.

“Ah. Your tongue has vomited deceit and deceit from beginning to end. ”
