He Didn’t Want to Be the Center of Attention, Hence, after Defeating the Demon Lord, He Became Guild Master

Running horses, I went with Eileen to the National Army castle with Miralka and Yuma and Sphere.

Inside the walls surrounding the castle are gathered soldiers who surrendered and abandoned their weapons. The enemy does not show any resistance, either because the banning on which the sphors are riding shows off the flamingos bracelets as they land in front of the soldiers.

The number of soldiers is about one thousand and five hundred. A total of about 10,000 troops were on their way here, but three platoons, 500 each, that were on their way as an advance team were held by the Miralka as they attempted to enter the castle, and the battle broke in sight of the magical power of the faction.

The soldiers sitting down - they must be wondering what they're going to do. Miralka speaks up to them and begins making recommendations.

"We value your surrender without resistance as a wise decision. The castle will now be taken over by us and taken over as a base for the" Lattice Liberation Army "with Princess Mermaire as its flag. The army you belonged to has stopped west of here, across the river. If soldiers are sent for rescue, the Liberation Army will defeat or secure them."

When Mermaire's name came up, the soldiers scrambled - and one of the captains in charge of each unit raised his hand and asked permission to speak.

"Why did you humans cooperate with Princess Mermaire... who still wanted to sell this Lattice to the land of humans?"

Miralka answers nothing. Just braced and silent, staring at the soldier man who asked the question.

"Gu...."

A soldier man sounded like a frog stared at by a snake. That's right - when Miralka was so powerful, even I hesitated to get closer.

(I haven't been so angry in a long time... is that so? Mermaire didn't betray the people. Miralka is angry with the man who set up the plot.)

"How much do you think you understand the truth with those cloudy eyes? You fought against the king and his people, and against the soldiers who sought to protect them. Without knowing what to protect, and without even thinking about who the real traitor is, I have attacked here. The result would be that tragic situation."

The soldiers of the castle and the monsters trained in the army attacked a village that resisted the Glasgows.

The soldiers are silent. They took advantage of the situation, ravaged the resisting village, tried to plunder the women and children - they were prevented from doing so, and finally began to realize the reality that we were being robbed of our lives.

"You must protect the people. Remember thy destiny again, and work to protect the wounded people, until the end of this civil conflict, and even after it is over. You didn't become a soldier to hurt your countrymen from the beginning."

"What kind of thing do people in other countries know...?!

"Yes, yes! Get out of this country, except for the demons!

The soldiers denounce Miralka, knowing that Leon and Lugard are leaping and sitting in the ruler's chair.

"Dick, Miralka, are you okay? Haven't you twitched enough already?

"When he gets really angry, he gets quiet on the contrary... which means he's in pretty dangerous territory."

"Yes, so long... Miralka, why don't you flatten everyone with destruction magic?

"I need Yuma for a time like this. Instead, Yuma is angrier... because he smiles even if he's angry..."

I saw Yuma at the back of the banning gently resting her hand on Miralka's shoulder in front of her. Miralka glanced and looked back.

(Yuma, this is the perfect time... to destroy all your weapons and throw them into the field, even if you don't want to destroy your soldiers with your faction magic.)

If you destroy the equipment, you will not be able to incorporate the troops into our team. Miralka played a role by destroying the castle and demonstrating her power - convincing or forcing her enemies to join her is Yuma's best area.

"Nh... what is it, that kid...?

"A human monk... a follower of a different god! Pagans, get out of this country now!

Among the provoked soldiers is a wave of anger. As it stands, even if they knew they couldn't win, they might show up to challenge the battle.

The soldier who was shouting stopped moving. It was because Yuma saw him.

I smile, but even if I look at it at a considerable distance, it makes me shiver. The girl who has the best magic in our party and can only use it to soothe souls - that's Euphire Manafrose, the Silent Soothsayer.

Originally, "Soul Soothing" only adds combat evaluation when purifying the dead spirit. Still, the reason she's over 100,000 Adventurers is because her purifying abilities are off track.

She also showed her abilities in the two levels of the King's City's underground labyrinth, the water level. The poisonous frog monster was turned into a non-poisonous creature - that is, 'purifying the magic of the monster' was pushed by a huge amount of clean magic coming out of its body.

Magic for her includes negative emotions - the "soul trap" according to what she says.

Once a member of the Demon King Crusaders, she did what the other four couldn't. The villages she went through were purified of their magic and their inhabitants converted to Albaeans - pretending to look like other demons.

"I find it difficult to believe in God who watches over our people in Albain immediately. However, we are not aggressors and will not target different religions. There is a God in each person's heart, and I think that's fine."

A loose narrative - like a lullaby. I'm not the only one who feels that way, and none of the Lattice National Army soldiers talk.

Even Eileen doesn't make a mess. Her ghost blood will also react to Yuma's power and be quelled - how calm it is, it will fall on me while riding on a horse, relaxing my physical strength.

…………

(No, no... even if you look like that. Isn't this force majeure?)

If Miralka were to look at me - "Vision Rise" - I could see his expression as if he were looking up close, but he was staring at me without stopping. You want to talk to Eileen and me.

Despite fighting a giant monkey monster called the Mixed Beast, Eileen is not sweaty - her peachy soft hair has an inviting sweet scent. Since she is holding the horse's leash with her hand out front from the side of her waist, it is not strange to be seen holding her, but in fact it is not so, so please don't stare so much.

Rather, it's Yuma now. She didn't come here to spread the word, and she said she didn't have the idea of converting - but her voice changed the minds of the soldiers, without even saying it.

"Let me just ask you one favor. It is imperative that the people of the same country do not take arms and fight each other under any circumstances. Princess Mermaire doesn't just want to restore power as a royal family, she wants to stop fighting. Stop pointing weapons at each other and join hands for peace."

This is the most powerful priest in Albainism. The Archbishop Grenadine is no match for the power of his daughter Yuma - no one is likely to have a charisma alongside Yuma in spreading the word.

"This is what happens when your mind... is washed away..."

"Why do we... consider our compatriots to be enemies..."

Nobody else, but Yuma. I can't believe we're still drawing into this faction by telling the rebellious enemy soldiers what to do.

"... Yuma, it's been a long time since you've been so amazing... so divine and dazzling"

"If the opponent is below rank B, Yuma won't have to fight. But I don't want to force them to change their minds, so they try to be as modest as possible." It seems that the 'tranquillization' she sends to the promised country to quell lost souls, and the 'indoctrination' that makes the opponent her own believer, can only be done with your father's permission. "

"It's only a matter of time before Yuma becomes Archbishop and all the people on this continent become Albanists. Ah, Dick doesn't believe in God."

I think I'll have to believe it when I look at Yuma. Sometimes it's Sphere - she was born by a miracle of God.

Yuma put her hands together and closed her eyes. The prayer spreads her purifying power to the surrounding area - an incredible amount of friendship will reach the people of that village.

"Now, let's pray. By uniting our hearts together, the people of Ratochris will also be able to hold hands as they once were."

One, and one more. Answer Yuma's call and start offering prayers.

You wondered if you could just keep watching, Miralka and Sphere take a prayer pose. Eileen seems to be praying with her hands on her chest, but I can't do anything because I'm still being held back.

Stupid purifying power. In front of Yuma, even the soldiers of the army can't keep their fighting minds, and they have to be cleansed everywhere - and I start to wonder what I can do to make the world peaceful if I let myself down.

Eventually Sphere landed the banning, so we got off the horse and helped them get off. I took Miralka's leg, Eileen hugged Yuma, and finally Sphere jumped into my chest.

"Father, thank you."

"Ah, well done. You're a complete dragon rider. Your father has a tall nose."

"Yeah, I'm not good enough for your father. Mr. Banning is amazing, so I just need to have a rope."

When the banning hits, it sounds sleepy with a high voice. I'm just asking you not to use your powers to intimidate such an army - after seeing a powerful enemy like Lugard, do you feel it's not enough?

"You can't persuade Yuma... I didn't mean to step on a certain number of occasions."

"Miralka, you've always been our representative. The masked savior is here! It's like,"

"Ah, yeah... it's a little embarrassing to say it again... but I don't think it's like that."

As far as I'm concerned, I think Miralka is the one who's most comfortable when he's doing the rescue, but I'll keep my eyes shut because he doesn't need it.

"... well, that's not what I'm saying... but I don't think it's far enough to use a horse."

"Ahahah, I kind of want you to ride me. Miralka or Yuma will ride next? Oh, or Sphere?

"I want to ride anything with my father! Ratchrist's horse has crushed eyes, too."

In Ratochris, horses are mostly black, with many black asparagus hairs. It was unexpected that horseback riding techniques were advancing over Albain - horseware was also easy to handle, and I would definitely like to share this technology with Albain.

"Dick, the soldiers are on our side. But they are only a fraction of the army. I'd like to avoid bumping into soldiers who are still on the enemy's side as much as possible...."

"Oh, I see. The enemy is retreating and there is no way to miss this plane."

There are several concerns. In other countries where information networks do not work, the only way to stall enemy movements is to use primitive means.

In other words, it's a secret mission as usual. This time, we interfered with the enemy forces and stopped using their abilities, but as you can see now, even in the class of captain of 500 troops, we don't need to fight directly at a place where our abilities do not reach Rank A - but if it is absolutely necessary, we are not here to bully the weak, so I want to avoid extra fighting.

"Dick, your head is spinning. I'm sure you'll come up with a plan, but why don't you slow down for a while? If the enemy runs away, you'll have plenty of room to eat and rest. I'm hungry because I exercised...."

Killing that giant monkey wasn't even a fight for her. I was a little surprised, but I think that everyone is growing up by engaging with a strong enemy named "Snake" for a long time. Not only has my adventurer run out of strength, but Yuma seems to have more control over her powers than ever before.

"Hah... seeing the persuasion to turn without Yuma asking questions makes my speech pathetic. I'm a professor at the University of Magic, but I'm not good at talking. It doesn't mean you can acquire your abilities with your title."

"It never happened, it felt so good to hear the right argument. But even if you try to screw it down from the front, there's nothing you can do to provoke the other person's rebellious heart."

"Hmm, what...? Are you comforting me? I think that's really rude."

"Ahahah, Miralka is really happy. That's the best compliment you ever heard. I want to show that to Dick, too."

It's not a distraction yet, but when you're with this member, peace of mind is better than staying nervous.

"Father, will I be able to speak well in front of everyone, like Miralka and Yuma?

"I wish I had that chance. Well, if you settle down, think about going to school with Sphere. I think if you get good grades, you might say hello to the student representative."

"Really? What kind of school?

I make a analogy when I'm not there, so I'm in trouble for answers. This is when Miralka, the school teacher, can be relied upon.

Miralka didn't persuade the enemy soldiers well and looked unusual, but when I sent my gaze to ask for a rescue boat, I suddenly resurrected and chested.

"School is where people of the same age come together to study. Universities vary in age, but university affiliates are divided into 9 or less, 12 or less, and up to 15 years old...."

If Sphere were to go to school, would he be incorporated under twelve? Manarina entered Magic University at the age of sixteen, but as an exception, would you like me to study at Miralka's Zemi?

"If Miralka's mother is a teacher, I want her to tell me too."

"Eh... yeah... that's a really nice thing to do. I have a few Zemi students, so I won't be able to add one more."

"Really!? Thank you, Mother!"

"Having said that, our mother's knowledge should be inherited from you... so if we briefly recap the basics, we can move on to developing research."

For my daughter, Miralka would listen to any request - so sweet to see. I tried not to make it too sweet, but I couldn't stand it.

"Dick, you think Miralka is jealous. Sphere misses me so much."

"Ah, don't be jealous... let alone that. It's kind of noisy."

"I say to the monks! A message from General" White Eagle Shade "has arrived from Fort Fort Fort Forensia!

Yuma has already been treated like the supreme power of the fort, but I don't think it's too much to do - because she's not named "monk", but since the monk in this castle is like her alone, it won't cause any particular confusion. I don't mind if you leave a legend behind as a masked priest.

◆ ◇ ◆

At the top of the castle, the place called the Guardian Tower seemed to have been used by a visionary guard, but Miralka magically destroyed it with a faction to tell the enemy that it was me - but since it was better to scout from above in banning, there was no problem without it. If we use this castle after defeating the rebels, we may need to repair it.

General Shade is one of the four generals of Ratclis, the corner that made up the top of the National Army. His two names are "White Eagles" because he is a demonic tribe with wings like white eagles.

He sensed that the National Army had begun marching and sent a message to the castle. Once again, we were trying to find out who the real enemy was and propose to rebuild the National Army - as a result of which we captured the castle and the National Army retreated, we were given a message. General Shade and we are on our side, so we want to share the situation and work together for the same purpose.

I asked General Shade to tell him I wanted to talk to him once, and I gave him a break before he left.

The rebellious generals who gave it to Leon and Lugard were two of them: the Phantom Glass Goal and the Folks of the Clay. Folkes leads the Velveteen invasion forces on the northern border and does not know where Glasgow is.

The female general named "Ginada of Smelted Thread" on the royal side was defeated by Leon and Lugard and is now believed to be confined somewhere. General Shade didn't tell me what the reason was for her being alive. I hope you can speak directly with General Shade. If General Ginada is alive, rescuing her may cause us a great deal of tension.

Holding down enemy dignitaries leads to an end to civil unrest with minimal damage. Holding down not only means fighting and defeating, but it is also desirable if you are drawn to your side. I feel that either Glasgow or Volksy will probably not listen to the conversation-Volksy seems not to be the leader of the rebellion because he is away from the royal castle, but we also need to identify it early.

We were entering the castle's staff room and discussing our future policy. Since the soldiers who surrendered were in full compliance with Yuma's instructions, Verlaine was given the leadership of the Demon King era to form a team for the recovery of the village and nearby reconnaissance - the food stockpiled in the castle was clearly more than to support the castle's soldiers, and there was plenty of room to feed 2,000 soldiers for six months. This is also a gift of the exploitation of Motoshiro, but it ended up helping us.

The map that was found in the castle was spread out on the round table. Looking at it made of parchment, Cody points to a place name written in a lower ancient language. It is often used as an official language in demonic countries. The upper ancient language can be a "powerful word" and chanting phrase that activates magic by simply reading it, so it is not usually used in documents and the like.

"This is Rugenta Castle, the village's name is Loire. General Shade protects the castle of Forensia... it seems that the royal name is the name of the castle."

"Rugenta, Forensia... is that what this is all about, Mermaire?

"Yes, this Rugenta Castle will be the newest branch. My grandmother... is named after the Third Queen."

"The royal influence is strong enough to be given a place name. There must have been some rebellion in the system... Leon and Lugard tried to take advantage of it. I wonder if they were in some way in contact when they broke into Ratchris."

As Miralka reads it, the overthrow of Royal Lattice was planned after a period of Leon's incubation.

"How did Glasgow feel about the royal family? There must be a good motive to betray the country we have always served."

"Because the glass goal is stronger than the king... is that too simple?

Rather than making sense of what Eileen says, it is possible that she is shooting at the target. According to Mermaire, the strength of the Four Generals is said to be equal to that of the King - that is, S rank.

Leon and Lugard are SS-ranked and don't seem to have the strength to pair up with Glass Goal.

However, Leon and Lugard somehow gained strength close to the limits of their SS rank. Some people lent Leon the Armor Spirit - the original owner of the Armor Spirit means that it is inevitably the SSS rank that gave them power.

"Suppose the Armor Spirit was sealed somewhere in this country. It could be that Glasgow found it and lent it to Leon for a while. At first, an Albain SS adventurer broke in and tried to defeat him."

I don't know if the answer is completely correct at this time, but Master's reasoning is sound. Glasgow's success in the rebellion should be taken to mean that he has quite a trump card. If Leon and the others are clearly stronger, the negotiations themselves will not be concluded.

"Phew... hafu. Ah... Dad, I'm sorry. I'm getting a little sleepy."

"Ahahah... it's like a tactical meeting. I'm tired of thinking about it all the time."

"All right, all right. Eileen, let Yuma rest with you. I'm so glad to have you attend a meeting when you're tired from traveling."

Yuma, to tell the truth, had been sleeping on Eileen's shoulder since the beginning - after a massive purification, she seemed to fall asleep. I cleansed a thousand and five hundred people of the "Soul Deposit" that can only be saved by living in the world of snowflakes, so it is a greater task than when I cleansed the whole King's City of the Dead.

"Suu... suu... Dick... relieve my soul..."

"Yuma-chan, I'm not hungry yet... why don't you purify Dick? Your eyes might be sparkling and you might look like someone else."

"Then you can't pretend to be drunk. I have to look away."

"Dee, your eyes are sparkling, and sometimes you hate them."

"... Mr. Rimserit's feelings for Dick still seem a little distorted, without fear of misunderstanding."

"I'll give you some permission if you don't have too much alcohol in your loose eyes."

Master knows all about my front and back, so I think I'm tired of looking at all sides. And with Miralka's permission, I think I can still swallow it.

◆ ◇ ◆

Miralka's faction feels so threatened by magic that the enemy has begun to build a camp across the river that divides the central plain north and south - we can't retreat to King's Landing because we fear being punished for violating orders or defeating.

There's also a way to chase down the Velveteen army camp here, just like when we disabled it in Miralka with me. But if we push too far, we'll lose where the soldiers are going - even if they come to us at once to advise us to surrender, the command structure is not in place.

Rescue the King and General Ginada and target the enemy commander. If we can do that, the soldiers will have to go back to where they left off. Officers and soldiers who follow Glasgow will be punished, but to some extent it is helpless.

How many men can General Shade put together? I wanted to know that as soon as possible, but his message said, "If Mermaire returns, General Shade will do whatever it takes." With three of the General's lieutenants and everyone swearing allegiance to General Shade, it seems that the Commander has no problem vacating the Fortress of France.

At the end of the operation meeting, I asked Mermaire again about a man named Glasgow.

"General Glasgow... is very beautiful. I don't know what kind of race it is, but I was born into a house that worked as the right-hand man of the Lattice royal family from the time of the founding of the country, and there is no title system in the country, but it is given a sequence of" first seats. "

There are sixteen houses that support the Royal family of Ratochris, and Glasgow is the origin of its head - that is, the family that is not royal, but closest to the king.

"Beautiful, isn't he? There are beautiful people like Cody in my house."

"They're beautiful... because they're dressed as men, not everyone is beautiful."

"Cody, you're prettier than beautiful."

"That is, knights must always be polite. Whatever you say yourself....."

"Mr. Cody, there's something... as gentle as a woman. That's especially true when I'm talking to Dick."

Melmer thinks of Cody as a man - I really miss the reaction. Even though I thought Cody was a man and he was so colorful, I was disciplining myself as to what I was thinking.

"Um... I'm dressed like this, but I'm a woman."

"Hmm... that's right. Wearing armor, they say," I, "so I always thought it was a man."

"I've been acting like a man for a long time, so that's a good thing."

Cody is not particularly offended because it is better to be seen as a man. Mermaire was terrified, but compared to Cody and me, she seemed convinced. Did you think we were too close for men? No, even if you think it's the air of men and women, that's no good - considering Sphere's mother, I think you should give priority to treating women as well, as long as it's very troublesome.

"General Glass Gore was actually a woman."

Eileen makes me joke. Mermaire seemed to remember Glasgow, but she didn't immediately deny it. Is the line so thin or neutral?

"... after learning about Cody, I can't say I won't. I didn't have many opportunities to talk to the soldier either, so I can't say I know him well. My father placed his full trust in General Glasgow and was heavily used. I think their relationship was more like a best friend than a king and a general."

He should have been so close, but Glasgow betrayed the king and locked up the royal people.

"If there's a trigger... that could mean Glass Goal has gained power."

"Are there any old ruins in the kingdom of Latticism? There are still" Star Relics (Stella Facts) "left unattended in such places. I haven't told Dee yet, but all the Armor Spirits are like" Star Relics (Stella Facts). "

"Ruins... you said His Majesty the King would seal them..."

The Master's prediction was fulfilled - the Armor Spirit and Glass Goal are now bound together.

Suppose Glasgow had betrayed the life of King Rathklis, Mermaire's father, and explored the ruins. If it were revealed to King Rathklis, and a misfortune arose...

"... one more thing. The monkey the National Army was carrying. It was called" Mixed Beast, "but why is that name?

"Demons are people who live with monsters. There are different kinds of monsters, but some do not listen to the demons, and others appear insane and harmful to the people... By combining monsters with each other to reduce such damage, they tried to improve the seeds. And that's how I was born," Mixed Beast. "

I found out why the National Army soldiers were subordinating more powerful monsters than themselves. A Mixed Beast is an organism that has been prefabricated to be a force for the national army.

In Albain, it is forbidden to associate animal varieties with each other unless they are of the same lineage. Natural and mixed monsters such as Dragon Kimira may be born, but I have never heard of artificial creation.

And the story leads to Lugard's black blood. Lugard wanted the blood of a good demon - perhaps to incorporate it into himself and gain more power.

"... Mermaire. Is there a race that takes the blood of others into its body and makes it stronger?

"Some demon tribes feed on the blood of living beings. But under Ratochris law, you can't suck the other person's blood without an agreement... because the person who sucked the blood also begins to want it."

Is it contagious like a disease? Then Lugard receives the blood and gains the ability to gain the opponent's strength by sucking the blood himself - that's what he thinks.

"Dick, do you have any idea what that means?

"You told me you fought a man named Lugard Valenstein. He was supposed to be human, but he bled black. It seemed to give me unusual power and vitality."

"... black blood... I can't believe you're so human..."

"Eh... Mermaire!

Mermaire collapsed and was about to fall on the spot - I responded with no response and supported her body.

Dee, Mae-chan's hard work is too big, so give her a break.

"Oh, okay... I'm sorry, I'll make dinner when I get back."

That said, the door to the operation room just opened, and Verlaine came in. She looks like a dark elf, but still dressed as a maid - but with that charisma, she was directing the submissive soldiers.

"I'm glad you just came back. Master, the villagers have offered to thank you. I'd like them to come and help me make dinner, but what do you think?"

"Oh, that would be helpful. I'm also interested in Lattice cuisine."

"Dick, it would be nice if you could think about your meal, but now give her priority. Are you going to hold me forever?

"Dee, you shouldn't put a burden on your body while you're nursing Mea properly...

"Ah, you know... Master, that's a vivid way to put it. I haven't thought about it at all."

If you think about that against Mermaire, who has lost consciousness, it's too modest.

But I already saw it when I embraced it in a cave in the northern valley of Albain. It was an unforgettable and undulating gesture to try to forget.

"Hmm... armor. If I were to say that my armor would attract your husband's attention, then as a knight of the dark elves, I might have a good taste for Fu (Kazu) with Kune."

"No, no... I don't think a knight should be a man, but a Rin."

"Dick seems to have a family saying about knights... but not the best friends we've been training with, watching the Knight Commander's behavior."

Miralka looks at it with a smile, but no matter how she looks at it, she feels like she's being questioned. I don't know what to say to me--Cody shrugs his shoulders like he's in trouble, but I have to say that I can't rely on him at these times.

For the time being, move to sleep with Mermaire. The operation room is on the third floor of the castle, and there is a room nearby for officers to use. I found an empty room and went inside.

Talking about Lugard's "Black Blood" upset Mermaire - she knows something. I want you to talk about it as much as you can.

Knowing more about your enemies in advance reduces your risk as much as possible. By the time General Shade arrived, I was going to know everything I could know as it stood.
