A demon king beneath his eyes lays down on the throne with a sight similar to Hell. The Demon King wears black armor all over his body, but only his head is dewy. The neck to bottom is vividly stained in black, while the exposed head is so pathetic and luxurious.
But the name of the Demon King with such a sharp glance that it does not resemble that expression is Forno-Mamon. He is the new ruler of this Dacrea II district by succeeding his predecessor Broad-Mamon's will.
"Dear Mamon,"
One maid-dressed woman who showed up on the throne. The woman used to serve Broad, now one of the few to know the former Demon King.
Although his squire had known about Forno for a long time, he did not know his face because he had always hidden his whole body in black armor. So when I first saw Forno's face, I couldn't hide my surprise.
"It's a transmission from the front line. Currently, the Demon King's Army and the enemy are in a state of antagonism. Especially if you're burning your hands at reinforcements sent uninterrupted by enemy forces."
"Right."
Forno asked his squire as he looked to the city where the explosion would take place everywhere.
"So how many were injured?
"That's..."
In Forno's answer, the squire answers honestly and shows confusion as to whether it is a good one. However, she has no choice but to confuse the answer. Because the number of reported injuries was way off track.
"There are many wounded in enemy forces. Zero demon army casualties, by contrast."
It is odd, if not normal, to report that the wounded in the demon king's army of the Forno are zero, when it is said that there is such a great and intense battle in the history of Dacrea that there is no precedent.
No matter how powerful there are, if there were such a disturbed battle between the two armies, there would be a few wounded. It was too strange that there were no wounded, and all I could say was that you were bad.
"How many reinforcements can you confirm around Zone II?"
"Depending on the aerial unit, a large number of suspected enemy reinforcements have been confirmed."
Listen to the squire's report and Forno will check the status of the war once now.
"Any requests for reinforcements from the front?
"There isn't. On the contrary, a request has been made to withdraw the soldiers from their ranks."
"Damn, their confidence..."
Forno gets a troubled look at a request from a subordinate. The figure did not make sense to the squire.
If you are antagonizing, why don't you send out reinforcements and annihilate them all at once? Plus the enemy troops are sending out reinforcements one after the other, so this one should send reinforcements to respond to it. How can this demon king not slap his enemies at once?
When the squire thinks of that, Forno commands the squire.
"As soon as possible, I want to get in touch with the demon king Sarnalin-Leviatan, who is in the Empire. It would help if you could connect me."
"Yes!
It is the video communication equipment that the squire manipulates in a hurry. This is Broad's developed substitute, so it's more user-friendly to ask a squire who served Broad if you want to use it.
When you finish the operation in no time, the screen displayed in front of the throne shows what Sarunalin looks like.
"Long time no see, Silforno!
"Long time no see, Sarunarin. And now I'm Forno."
It doesn't seem to have anything to do with Sarunarin, even though a squire who refrains at the end of the screen comes up with a strange look at the name Silforno.
"There's nothing wrong with that. Not at all."
"Ha, you'll be in trouble. Sarunarin."
"That's all right."
Silforno wanted to say back what would be good, but Silforno gets to the point because there's no point in having such an argument here either.
"Has the Empire made a move?
"This one's all stuffed. In the meantime, I searched every stronghold in the Empire by letting Saiya-kun and the humans in the branch catch him, but that information still seems true."
"This means that all the demon kings are approaching Zone Two."
"I wonder if that will happen"
The squire, who listened to the conversation between Silforno and Sarnarin, is blue-faced. Even though intense fighting is still taking place, there will be no choice but to bluish it if we are told that more enemy reinforcements will come in the future.
But the look on the faces of the Silforos, as opposed to the squire, is still full of room.
"So you need reinforcements?
"It's a subtle place. If the war changes as it is now, it won't be necessary."
"Which means that when an irregular presence comes out, it's gonna be turned upside down."
"Right. Just put it in battle. This possibility always exists."
What is an irregular presence here? A genius warrior appears on the Dedemonized King's side and entrusts a soldier who is just being sent with an operation that causes scales to fall out of his eyes, or he can change the war situation by himself, and that's what magicians like Lucifer the Great Demon show up.
However, this possibility is very unlikely, and it is also true that there is an opinion that it is too much to prepare for a time like this.
"What are you going to do as a policy going forward?
"Let's start with a truce."
"So you mean wait for the enemy to gather?
"Right. So when they're in a total battle, they slap them all at once."
"That would be ideal, wouldn't it?"
These demon kings have unwittingly wanted to penetrate into what the hell they're talking about, squire. I didn't understand why you bothered to set up an operation that would give the enemy a chance.
"But then I guess we'll need reinforcements"
"Well, worst case scenario, if I leave, I guess I'll have no problem."
"In the meantime, the hall was dropped. It's tough, isn't it? You want me to send an adventurer from the Fourth Ward?
"No. If you do that, there will be a real civil war."
"Silforno's men have a lot of stubbornness."
"My loyalty is strong."
There will be more troublesome concerns for Silforo with a troubled look on his face! and a squire who can't penetrate even if he wants to. I feel teethy.
"If I were to ask for reinforcements, I wonder if a master or something would be appropriate."
"If you send a thunderous god, that's what makes the war rough."
"If they're only demon demon kings, I don't care if it's Sarunarin's idea, but this time it's a problem because of the circumstances."
"If they do show their hands, the Quarter Adventurers may not be able to beat them."
Silforno and Sarunalin were thoughts that made me want to hold my head.
"The magicians behind the Dewitching Kings and the magicians who, unlike it, would be after them again. Neither one of us is gonna get in trouble because he's the other."
"What if they come out?
"One way or the other, I'll deal with them, but if they come at the same time, they'll have trouble."
If it were to be the worst thing that Silforno fears, the damage would spread at once.
"But one side is on your side in a way, isn't it?
"The enemy of the enemy says he's on his side, but honestly, I don't know what that thing is thinking. Instead, if you think about what's going on right now, that might make them both enemies by themselves."
A mysterious existence that deals with the Demon King Army and the Revolutionary Army by itself. The phrase alone made my squire feel limp.
"Given the worst case scenario, it is the two extraordinary magicians who should be wary of all the demonic kings. In other words, at least three people will need a strong presence. When that happens, I'm going to take my men and deal with the demon kings, so even if Luna is in this hall right now, she won't have enough special magicians."
"It would be tough if the anti-demon kings came out there."
The worst thing you can think of. Given the probability of that happening, I guess it's very low. But it's horrible because that can happen in the present situation.
"In the meantime, I'll concentrate on sweep operations, so if you grab a new queen, it'll help if you tell me."
"I get it. I'll keep an eye out for other forces, especially if it's possible."
"Please."
Thus the telephone talks by the demons close the curtain. And the war situation was about to move into a new phase.
