00339 Brave New World

* * *

I can see some Demon Kings shaking.

Don't fuck with me! You're the one who got rid of the sequence! There was also the Demon King who blabbered openly. Yesterday's air suddenly became chaotic. But the people who caught my eye were not noisy cans.

“ ……. ”

This clever, four-year-old physiologist kept his mouth shut. The man who asked me a proactive question before.

I smiled inadvertently because it was fun. Indeed, I noticed it fast.

A marble pillar was beautifully laid yesterday. Although the sudden declaration of explosion had fallen, there were not many surprises for the Demon King who poured his grievances. No, I wrote it down clearly. The Demon Kings in the faction kept silent. Only the Yenyoub, who are not affiliated, are busy grinding the cub.

I witnessed. As soon as my declaration came true, I scoured the entire temple. You must have noticed there. Barbatos, Pymon, Marvas, all expressionless.

I knew this was a thoroughly premeditated event. Giving me an excuse now is like turning all the factions inside the Demon Prince against me…….

I immediately took a step back. I was very artistic when I hit and drop. I was able to catch a cockroach cheapskate in a row.

“Dantalian. You've made it clear there will be no sequencing of the new Demon King army. But now that you've come to resurrect the order, is there a spirit in your head? ”

Not all Demon Kings were as proficient at prescribing as Bazaar. In sixth place, the Demon King Baleford gritted his black cheeks.

With absolute power, the Demon King who reigned on the throne of Manma was very far from the word "position." As soon as I give the order, I will obey any horseman. In such situations, there was no need to learn and polish politics.

Especially unaffiliated Demon Kings who are self-concealing because they are despised by politics. Compared to the plains and mountain tribes that have been in fierce faction fights for over a thousand years. That's why they tried to scare me, but I guess they haven't figured it out yet.

“Of course. All Demon Kings are equally qualified and attend the Demon King's army. ”

“Do you know what you're talking about? ”

Baleford laughs and asks the nearby Demon Kings for their consent. A few people laugh maliciously as they cooperate.

“Resurrecting the system that declared annihilation. Do I really have to explain what contradictions mean? ”

“There is no contradiction. ”

I smiled.

“I am the Demon King, but at the same time the palace of the empire. For example, in terms of the Demon King, I am equal to Barbato. But in terms of being part of the empire, it falls behind the Duke and Regent Barbatos. It's a fairly simple story. ”

Baleford frowns. I didn't seem to understand it well.

I can't help it. Let's use the toebox as a gesture and let them know. I surprisingly like teaching others. Because he's sweet.

“The work of the landscape is to the landscape, the work of the continent, Balepor.”

“What are you talking... …. ”

“From now on, it is not acceptable to shake the continent at your own will. All Demon Kings must join the Habsburg Empire unconditionally. Whether or not the Demon Prince interferes with the continent is determined solely by Congress of the Empire. ”

Balefor's face was crumpled without cause.

“Parliament...? Incorporation……? Dantalian, are you out of your mind? ”

“I'm always proud to stay sane. ”

“Are you going to sell the Demon King's pride to an empire built by man? ”

Balepor and many other Demon Kings were chatting. Betrayal is not treason, but treason is the word I use. A storm of condemnation strikes.

The storm has subsided by itself. After a while, the Demon Kings, who were blushing and raising their voices, realized that very few people were making loud noises. I looked around with an unbelievable look on Balepor's face. But no one helped me....

There was a strange silence. In the middle, only I smiled constantly.

“The Demon King's pride doesn't concern me. Did you mean to sell it to the Empire? Good. It's useless pride anyway. If you can sell it for a good price, it would be profitable. ”

“What nonsense... Are you crazy?!" ”

Baleford grows old. However, unlike before, there was a frenzy on my face.

I think I've finally sensed that the atmosphere is strange. I'm sorry, it's too late. The wheels have turned, and times have changed. Save the fact that the sixth place sign is useless.

“Baal also discussed the Demon King's pride. Agares died crying out for the Demon King's pride. What is that pride? Do you take pride in putting the moon blinders in limbs, causing unnecessary civil war? ”

I smile. Balefor's face is glowing red and blue.

“We are proud to discuss the murder of our own kind without shame. That's a lot of pride. Excuse me, but even if I give you that pride for free, I will not give it here. ”

“You…. ”

“Don't get me wrong. There is only one thing the Demon King is proud of. Build a paradise on earth for Manma, that's all. ”

I stared directly at the blue eyes of the Valefore.

“The days of heroism in Hercules conquered the continent have long ended. The age of dressing up was over because we were proud of the act of rushing without even recognizing our people and allies. What we need is cold judgment and decisiveness. ”

I took a few steps down from the top.

“In the Second Monthly Armed Forces, we got a third of the continent. And yet, it failed. Why? Is it because we're weak? Is it because the Horses are inferior to Humans? ”

I slowly walked through the middle of the yesterday and spoke out loud to the nearby Demon Kings. This was not already an argument against a single Balepor. It was a persuasive speech.

“Absolutely not. There was someone inside who was interfering with your success. And blasphemy disguised the Demon King's pride as a mere act of betrayal…… It's not a funny joke. ”

“Ha, you mean the true pride of the Demon King to join the Empire! ”

Baleford shouts. He's as excited as an angry bull.

“Take back the flag of the Habsburg Empire, then. ”

I looked at the ballet coldly.

“Declare yourself hostile to all mankind. The human race will be united and will come here at once. Do you think the Demon Lord, who was defeated by the subsequent civil war, will simply overcome? ”

“A coward's way of thinking of losing a war! The Demon Prince always wins! ”

I shook my head and laughed.

“Do you understand? And when we officially declare humanity an enemy, then the Moon Nation will have it. There is no proper victory, no proper defeat. We need an all-out war by the time either the Horses or the Humans are exterminated. ”

Humanity now recognizes the occupied continent of the Demon Prince because it is wearing the mask of the Habsburg Empire on the outside. There are still some who don't know it.

“I give my word of victory to those judges who exercise caution and lack assurance. The question of the possibility of defeat is called a coward……. ”

I twisted my lip.

“It's understandable why the Moon Blind has failed so far. Only with a Demon King like you as commander can you be exterminated in a battle to be victorious. ”

“W-what...? ”

“A fool who can't face reality is not needed in the new Demon King's army. ”

Baleford has lost his words due to excessive insults. I turned my gaze to the left without caring.

“What is the paradise on earth for the Mages? We all disagree on this question. Some of you, like the Plains, believe that the answer is true for the Horsemen, for the Horsemen and for the Horsemen. ”

I looked at the plain once and slowly opened my eyes.

“Few of you believe that it is impossible to completely conquer a human species. We think it's a realistic solution to secure the territory of the Horsemen by making reasonable compromises with the human race. ”

“ ……. ”

“Or those of you who think it's best to preserve what we've occupied so far. ”

He referred in turn to the plains, the mountain tribes, and the neutral tribes.

“I don't think either side is the real answer. It's a judgment that greatly surpasses my intelligence. However, it is clear that it is imperative to wear the mask of the Habsburg Empire on either side. ”

Yes, it is.

Any faction needs the name of the empire.

“The plains need a proper justification to subdue humankind. Humans unite too tightly when they march purely in the name of the Demon Prince. Conversely, if this is the name of the empire, we can plot the division of the human species if we do well. From a strategic point of view, the name of the Habsburg Empire is essential. ”

The Demon Kings of the Plains convinced me.

“The mountain tribes need a reason to compromise with humankind. It is easier to put the empire at the front than to put the Demon Prince at the front, and it is easy to negotiate with the Humans. From a diplomatic point of view, the Habsburg Empire is in dire need of a name. ”

The Demon Kings of the Mountains convinced me.

“This way, when the two factions are part of the same empire, we can no longer not only confront each other, but we can institute institutional relationships that work together sometimes. So the Habsburg Empire is a very useful tool for the Neutral Tribe. ”

The Demon Kings of the Neutral Clan convinced him.

Based on his last persuasion, I was standing here.

“Our aspirations are different, but we can compromise. There are no holes in the Demon King's pride. Only cold, clear, realistic thoughts are allowed. Do you understand, Balefore? ”

I turned my head to look at the Balepor.

“All of us are desperately trying to build a society for the Horsemen in some way. That's the king's pride. That is the king's duty. Throw away useless abstract words to a dog. ”

“ ……. ”

The only obstructing force is the Unsubordinated Demon King, who is not bound by the dream of a magical ideal society.

I smiled coldly.

“If you're looking for pride nonetheless, fine. Find as many as you like. But if you do, I hope you're prepared to turn all factions against you. There is no place for dreamers anymore in the Demon King's army. ”

“ ……. ”

Baleford asked, but he couldn't answer. Of course, it was only natural to think of Baal and Agares' end.

I nod and look back at Emperor Rudolf.

“Announce the sequence. ”
