00233 The War of the Demon

* * *

I was sitting on a chair anxiously.

I tapped the floor of the room, shaking my feet less. It was an ugly habit, but what can I do? The fate of the plains depends on this day.

I sat ducking all night waiting for your call. Staring at the crystal ball left on the table.

‘Barbato should not have fallen yet. ’

The north-central part of Habsburg is geographically significant.

The Demon Kings have nested in a terrain surrounded by the Black Mountains, once called the Demon King's Sanctuary… for the most part. My castle is to the west, among other things. It is located at the westernmost place, Pagaea.

Names don't matter. The problem is that this place is a dangerous place.

To the west lies the Kingdom of Tuton, while to the south lies Habsburg. It would be a shame to be exposed to the human race. This was the area that Barbatos' forces had to control.

I was the one who had so much hatred for the Humanitarian monarchs...... like President Elizabeth who turned furiously and sent an army, it was over that day. In order to prevent them from passing through the army, I needed a friendly force to become a blockade.

You can't let Agarez or Gamygin occupy this area. They are never friendly to me. Oops, I've lost sight of the enemy sending troops! I'm sorry! 'The expedition to my dungeon may close my eyes.

Imagine an army of about 500 men led by knights. It's terrible, isn't it?

‘Even if you're guarding a dungeon, you can't stop an army. ’

No, fifth floor. Barbato should be the shield until a dungeon of that size is completed.

…… it was the spleen that pulled out the citrus. Citri was recognized as more armed than Veled. If she leads the cavalry and joins us, it will increase our odds. Of course, there was a chance of defeat.

Victory or defeat. In some cases, you might have to run to Gamygin and kneel down and lick her toes right now. I'm not kidding.If there's a chance of survival in the future, I can clean your toes a dozen times. However, I also hope Barbatos doesn't lose...

─ Dantalian.

A blue glow emanates from the crystal sphere. The image of Captain Zephar was projected. Finally, a call!

─ Dantalian, are you there?

“Yes, Brother Zephyr! I've been waiting.”

Commander Zephyr was tired, pretending to be. I haven't even taken off my armor yet, but I think the battle has just ended. I hurriedly leaned toward the crystal ball. I was nervous. Why didn't Barbatos contact me directly?

So far, Barbato has put all of his communications in. I didn't think she would have given it to someone else for no particular reason. In other words, Barbato himself did not have the capacity to communicate at the moment. Injury, defeat, defeat...... I came up with desperate words by myself.

I asked with a trembling voice.

“The battle. How did the battle go? ”

─ Ah. Victory is ours.

Victory! Barbatos has won!

I covered my face with both hands. A sigh of relief came out of my heart. During the last three days, I felt the fatigue accumulating all over my body as I stayed up all night. Barbato wins!

“What about the damage to your allies? What's your status, Mr. Barbatos? You're not seriously injured enough to be unable to communicate, are you? Have you captured Agares? What is the status of the Unsubordinated Demon Kings? ”

─ Dantalian, you're in a hurry.

Commander Zephyr smirks a little.

─ You can't answer that many questions at the same time. Don't get excited.

“…… I'm sorry, I think I've been getting a little nervous for the past few days. ”

─ Friends have won. This doesn't change forever. There's no need to be in such a hurry now. The battle of frenzy is over now, and it's time for calm reasoning. The role you've been given is far from excitement... Isn't it?

“No, that's exactly what I said. ”

I nodded.

Yes, I am not a general in this civil war, but a diplomat. Be colder than anyone else. The only enemy we have to deal with is the Demon King Gamygin, who grows around 200 raccoons in disguise. It's not worth it.

“Brother Zephyr. Please first tell us the size of the damage your allies and your enemies suffered. ”

Commander Zephar's expression became serious.

─ Fourteen thousand casualties from 18,600 friendlies. There are 3,000 injured and 1,000 dead. I haven't counted the exact number yet. And the enemy...... 20,000 casualties in 21,000.

My face brightened.

10,000 casualties out of 21,000. It wasn't just a victory. Overwhelming! Virtually indestructible. My heart tightens. I can hardly bear it, and I bite calmly.

“How is Captain Barbatos doing? ”

─ I understand your anxiety. But stop worrying. The President had spent too much magic fighting Agares. The President is taking care of you because it's a judgement that will cause Mana reflux if you do wrong.

“You mean no injuries? ”

─ Honestly, you're very good at this. Veled and I barely put him to bed screaming that he would pursue Agares to the end.

Thank goodness. I sighed again. I felt like a worrying grandfather. Shit. The longer I sigh, the faster I get old.

─ Unfortunately, we failed to capture Agares alive. Well, I doubt it's even possible to capture Agares alive. He lacked the sense to call himself a substitute, but captured three unaffiliated Demon Kings.

As Captain Zephar explained, Citri's forces ambushed them from behind while the plains held the enemy captive. As a result, the form of the classic hammer-month was reproduced and annihilated by the enemy.

Commander Zephyr smiles bitterly.

─ I never imagined the day would come when the mountain tribes would help me. Dantalian, our plains are very surprised. What other magic did Dantalian do? There's still a way to become a First Communist without participating in a battle.

“I'm ashamed. Is it okay if I go into negotiation today? ”

─ Ah, the commander was lenient. Hunt Desert Foxes thoroughly.

Desert Fox was a nickname for Gamegin. A fox with beautiful golden hair but always cunning. Now the time has come to hunt the fox at will.

I nodded.

I, Dantalian, was infinitely weak to the strong but infinitely strong to the weak. It bothers me till the water comes out of my eyes, Gammy. You can expect it.I 'll give you interest in what you've been playing...

* * *

Gamekin had a huge villa in Nibbleheim.

It's a new kind of architecture in this age. After filling most of the land with gardens, I made the waterway flow in the middle, and then I made the villa small in the deepest part. The building was small but glamorous. At the highest level, there must be a villa in the Great City of Mahjong.

I smiled as I passed the beautiful fountain. Stuck in a mansion so spectacular, Gamigine will look and frown. I felt very good.

“This way, please. ”

I was escorted to one side of the garden by the maid. The bushes were carefully pruned. There was artificial beauty. It was like Gamekin who had been deceiving others with a smile for a lifetime. From my taste to my rotten personality. Haha.

After stepping on the dirt road in the garden for a while, Gaemigin sits among the bushes as if hidden.

“Welcome, Dantalian. ”

Gamekin welcomes you with a smile. I was still able to smile. Excellent.

“I've never seen a man set foot in my garden before. ”

“How many men have you whispered that word to so far? ”

“Hmmm, about 200, maybe? ”

I knew it. I sat across from her.

“Quite relaxed. I thought you'd be a little more nervous. ”

“I'm so nervous to see you like this. ”

Gamygin smiles. She may already have a smile on her skin that won't shake. Suddenly, I wondered what would happen if the woman in front of me looked bad. It is caused by pain and pleasure, so that his face collapses badly. I can't stop smiling.

Maybe it's the pleasure of the drama.

I was thrilled to imagine.

“There's only two of us here. There's no need to be so obvious. ”

“Oh, my God. Are you saying that we have a special relationship? ”

“Well…… depending on how things are moving forward, maybe. ”

I deliberately left my luck at the end of my speech.

Hmmm, and Gamekin pours out a glass. She wore more exposed cloth than usual. I think it's a nightgown. A cloth pours down on my thighs, my breasts, and I'm flattered. The cloth was thin, meaning that Gamigine's white skin glowed.

Now that the sun is setting, it's not strange to wear pajamas. However, it was so unfaithful to wear such pajamas while welcoming guests.

That pajama outfit is a clear provocation...... of temptation. That must mean something.

Maybe it's temptation, postponed by the character of Gamigine. Are you trying to get me into the beauty business? Interesting. Let's see how well you seduce me.

“I'll cut to the chase. Our plains cannot accept our territorial distribution at all. ”

“Hey, you're coming out strong. ”

“I told you about the negotiations last time. I warned you clearly.”

I took out my smile from my mouth.

“That was actually your last chance to come up with a 'good' compromise, Gamejin. Our plains have won. And we will continue to win. Agares and his Unsociable Demon Kings don't stand a chance anymore. ”

“Why? You're a bottom-feeder. ”

Gamekin rubs his fingers against his side head.

“Agares has been defeated today, but I don't know what will happen tomorrow. Agares has the power to reverse it. There's no denying that. ”

“Of course, I admit it. Agares is the world's greatest unmanned. Anyone who would stand up to him at that time would be on the entire spectrum and continent. ”

But, and I said,

“That's why I was so busy trying to eliminate the possibility of a word. ”

“Huh?"

“Tomorrow. Marvas will lead the Neutral Wave across the Habsburg border. ”

“ ……. ”

Gamigine stopped.

“That's a lie. Marvas would never intervene militarily in a power struggle. ”

“That's right. If this civil war was a 'force' fight. Agares has been the sole culprit in all of this. The Demon Kings on your side are all unaffiliated. ”

I smiled.

“From Marvas' point of view, a group that has not been joined by any forces has stirred up chaos. The plains and mountain tribes that have been at war for more than a thousand years are about to come together. However, there are those who do not know the atmosphere and hinder the age of coexistence.... ”

I grabbed the glass from Gamegin's hand lightly. He said while drinking a sip of alcohol. It was sweet and deep. It was the finest American.I 'm starting to feel better.

“It's probably unpleasant. Monkeys that are interfering with the unity of forces are just irritating us. Let's step on it. It's natural to think that way. Isn't that right?"

Maybe it's the mood. Gammigin's red eyes subside coldly.
