Dungeon Master Makeup Money (formerly known as Dungeon Master Funding)

Large rocky mountains in the distance.

And I see a city with a rocky mountain on its back.

"That's the second destination, Legiana."

Originally the king capital of a small country called the Kingdom of Legiana.

When I said Wang capital, it wasn't that there were other cities in the country, it was just a country with a few small cities and villages around it.

The main industry in the Kingdom of Legiana is the steel industry. High quality ore was harvested from Mount Legiana, near the Wang capital, a small but rich country.

Don, don, don!

I hear battle noises from afar. A bird-shaped demon running through the land that has been attacking me since I entered the territory of Legiana. It doesn't seem to fly, but it runs at an awesome rate and hits enemies.

The Gardis Imperial Army was dealing with demons while making sacrifices.

Somehow the aim is to send the wizard to Legiana to defend him.

"You don't see any demons in the city, do you?

"Yes."

I answer because General Holkes has been asking.

There is no such thing as a demon inside the Legiana. That's definitely because I'm checking with the sapphire eagle I'm sending out for reconnaissance.

"You should hurry, apparently."

I'm not in the city.

But a gray-shaped bull-shaped demon that senses human proximity is pushing from the mountain.

Enter the city and aim for the Lords' Hall in order to conserve a little power.

"Ugh..."

"What's up!?

"Apparently, there's no such thing as demons."

A soldier came in to check on the inside.

"This is a demon... is that a Cyclops carcass too?

It was a single-eyed giant who was falling by the gate.

Eyes that are too big considering the size of the head of what is torn apart by the body. Definitely in cyclops.

"Weren't there any demons?

"There are no living demons. So there's no danger."

There are traces of many demons in the city.

But none of them were left alive demons after they had already been defeated.

"But it doesn't seem like there are no people at all."

View the center of the city where the Lords' Hall is located.

Then you hear the heels rattle through the cuttlefish and the paved ground.

What showed up was a woman who looked like a nobleman in a dress. The chunky blonde hair is curly and looks heavy on her head. Still, women walk upright and upright in posture.

"Onet...... no, should I even call you Onet Legiana?

"Oh? You looked into me."

"Oh, the nobles were running away over there, too."

Zeon, whose ancestors were aristocrats.

I also gathered information from the nobility, wondering if Onet was also someone related to the nobility because he was dressed like an aristocrat.

And the lord of Legiana knew about Onet.

I got information about who I think is Onet correctly.

"I hear the Kingdom of Legiana was never exposed to the scourge of war for having many blacksmiths to process the ore that makes up the material of the weapon."

If some country ever holds the Kingdom of Legiana, it will be endangered by others.

So the Gardis Empire also proceeded from the domination around them.

"The Kingdom of Legiana had no choice but to surrender because of the subjugation of its surroundings by the Gardis Empire"

"Yeah, that's what I hear, too."

There was one princess in the Kingdom of Legiana. Any one should receive a son-in-law from a leading domestic figure to be queen.

But it was to be addressed to a man who had been conquered when she was young and who became lord of a place that was the kingdom of Legiana as if it were a reward. But the man lost interest and abandoned the princess as she caged her child and grew old.

"My grandmother heard it was a struggle. Before he was conquered, he was treated politely and educated as much as possible by the king. Not only was it more defiled, but it was corrupted by the presence of less than civilians."

The lord stopped showing interest in the old princess.

But the princess, when she was young and beautiful, had untrained, so the hall of the lord was the most beautiful. Before it was conquered - portraits of the time when it was the Kingdom of Legiana were always adorned. The model was great anyway, so it was still decorated nearly a hundred years after that time.

So the lord now also knew what a princess looked like.

"Let my grandmother tell me. I look like a living copy of my grandmother. You shouldn't know what my grandmother looked like when she was young, so I was listening to her half the time. But I changed my mind when I saw the portrait that was decorated in the lord's hall... you really look just like me"

Onet staring away somewhere.

A princess who inherits the blood of a legitimate Legiana royal.

Onet, who is said to look like a living copy, is also thick in the blood of the Legiana royal family, but her blood also contains blood to be abhorred.

"So much from myself... hate the ones who took the kingdom of Legiana that I was supposed to inherit?

…… Hate...? Often, you can say that line! Those scumbags don't even have the right to live!

Onet slapping the ground with his shoes. The road cracks around the heel.

Angry expression. The hatred was directed against the emperors of the Gardis Empire.

"I can't stand the fact that the people who just made such a person unhappy are being held hostage to 'heroes'!

"Ma, wait...! Emperor Justios is a man called 'Hero'. The nations he was fighting over becoming emperor calmed down and many people saved!

General Holland argues.

Onet's words were unbearable to him, a general who was serving the royal family.

But it was Onet who really didn't put up with it.

"How many people have been unhappy in the process!? Indeed, he may have been the 'hero' who saved 10,000 people. But on the other hand, it's a 'villain' who made a thousand sacrifices. Nothing but villains from the point of view of those who sacrificed themselves! If he hadn't made an empire or something, at least the Kingdom of Legiana would have been at peace!

Onet exuding anger.

But you calmed down a little by exhaling the depression you had accumulated, and exhaled.

"Excuse me. You don't deserve to be a lady now."

He sees us when he turns his expression into a calm grin in an instant.

Mr. Charles told me about you yesterday.

"Are you alive?"

"Pfft, I was using precious healing pills to heal my wounds, so I was pretty angry that I was going to get revenge until I calmed down. I've never seen her expose her emotions like that."

On escape, Charles was deeply slashed in the abdomen by Sylvia.

He was bleeding a lot, so he had some kind of pale expectation that he might have been fatally wounded, but he's not going that well.

"So, are you even going to retaliate?

"No way, you're not going to fight me"

Onet showed up like he was waiting for our visit.

I just thought the fight was exactly what I was after.

"We each have a purpose. Do you understand now?

Charles took away the results of his research in Monston. Enough to sneak in, the power of your family would make it easier, but there's some reason to make all this noise and then steal it out.

And Onet in front of me also has a purpose.

"I wanted my Legiana back"

"That's a little different. I just wanted to free Legiana from the Gardis Empire. I can't forgive you as a royalty, such as remaining conquered by those people. It's not like I can do anything right now, but I just couldn't forgive them for having it in their hands."

"Here, a lot of people lived without knowing anything. You think I can get involved in your purpose!?

Sometimes not so far from Monston, General Holland also had interactions with those who had fled Legiana.

I heard what he said. Onet is couscous laughing.

"What are you talking about? I am the rightful successor to the Kingdom of Legiana. Well, whatever I do with the people, I'm on my own."

"Become... you should be allowed to do that..."

"You'll be forgiven. Because that's how the Gardis Empire does it."

Manipulate the royalty and nobility of the conquered country as they please with the power of their skills.

The manipulation of superior beings forced civilians to follow even though they were forced to.

"We won the war against the Gardis Empire. Whatever we do with this country, it's our freedom."

"This..."

The knight of the escort, who was next to General Holland, pulls out his sword and leaves forward.

I couldn't forgive Onet for what he said and did as someone who was in a position to defend my country.

"Oh, I did"

He does the sort of trick of remembering something without showing how he cowered when he said a knight with a sword was imminent in the front. In fact, where the knight seriously chopped him off, Onet never even put it on his teeth.

"I forgot to mention my demands. This city is off-limits because of my domination."

The body of the slashed knight collapsed in pieces.
