Konjiki no Moji Tsukai (WN)

84: at the end of the plot.

The beasts take their men and leave the scene with a loud laugh.

Kiria, who sees it, says to Rudolph.

"Can I let you go? Once the king of the Allies?

"Well, that's just a name, too. Besides, I don't know what you're talking about."

When Rudolph glances at the beasts leaving, he shifts his gaze to Kyria.

"More Irregular Happened Than That"

"Indeed, I was amazed at Judom Lankers' move. You needed to be more vigilant. We've got a heap of things to fix with shame."

Especially the red robe boy, I didn't say it in my mouth.

"... what's going on with the scenario?

"Don't worry. Surely the original purpose, the assassination of the Demon King, could not be achieved..."

"Hey Rudolph."

That's where Judom came in.

"... were you still there, Judom"

"What the hell is that woman over there? From what I've seen, it was close to the Demon King, but you've always been able to fool me to that Akwynath."

The fact that he continued to deceive Akwinas, a man strong enough to admit also the sun color, meant that Kiria was a being going over Akwinas. At least not in intelligence.

"That should be it, too. 'Cause I'm not the one who usually held back by that girl."

"............ what?

"Rather than, until I got here, I was accompanied as usual by the other one."

She tells me to be pale and nothing, but it was Judom who sounded like half a joke because of the funny remarks being lightly cummed out.

"Hey, what are you talking about, you?

"Number 05 should be with your husband by now."

"Zerogo? No. That's how you named yourself. You. What do you mean, there are other sisters like you?

"That's right. Everything else was made of me."

- Too much talk, Number 03.

All of a sudden, everyone sends their gaze to the voices they hear on the spot.

Then there stood a person with the exact same face as Kiria.

(same face...... he is the example? And there was no sign...)

Judom turns his vigilance to the other Kiria, who is approaching with complete signs.

"You are a combat specialist. Sure, the fighting power is extraordinary, but for that matter, I'm oblivious to rushing, etc. It's honest to say it for the better, but it's stupid to say it for the worse"

Without making footsteps, he comes to next door to Kiria at a certain stride.

"Number 02, why are you here? What about number 05?

"It's your husband's place. When I said why I came here, it was about you, so I came surprised to tell you the information honestly, even if the enemy asked me. As expected, they were trying to give information to the enemy."

See Chirali and Judom.

(Chi... I wish I could have pulled some more info, but you had an unexpected visitor here)

Judom stares at a woman named 02 who appears, tongue-in-cheek.

Sure, I can't tell the difference at all in appearance, but unlike the pompous 03, the 02 was somewhat crisp and about to cut my head off.

"I see you're the other guy. No, he said he'd be more with his mouth just now?

"You think a little clever about appearance being a muscle-laden habit. But let me just say..."

She has a slight poisonous tongue, but the one on the 03 stands talkin 'about nothing.

"Well, it's time to go back to your husband, number 03."

"Okay. So..."

No. 03 turned his body toward Rudolph as he nodded. Rudolph gazes at her and tilts his neck.

"... hmm? What?"

"I said it earlier. The original purpose, the assassination of the Demon King, has failed."

"Oh, oh."

"But that's just a handful of purposes,"

……

Rudolph doesn't know what he's talking about. He's staring.

"And -"

Number 03, when you get a nostalgia, takes something out.

And stick your arm out like that...

"Huh!?

"Rudolph!?

Or so it turns out, number 03 pierced Rudolph's chest with bare hands. It was as if it overlapped with Yveam earlier.

And when number 03 quickly gets out of hand, a cold word.

"This is another purpose."

No. 03 is shaking her plain blood-soaked arm, pappy.

"Did you let him in?

When No. 02 asked that, "without pulling out" and No. 03 answered that inorganically.

"What the hell are you doing!?

Judom, soldiers and minister Dennis also rush to Rudolph, who is holding his chest and rolling to the ground.

The 03 are a little off the spot.

Then somehow Rudolph's body swells up gradually. The colour of the skin is also turning red and black.

"Le...... rudolph?

I leak my words as I glance at the sight.

"Gu... but too much... Huh!?

Shortly afterwards - from Rudolph's chest grew something as bright red and as big a horn as blood. It's big enough to think it might be fifty centimeters.

And its body, about five or six times its original size. He was five meters tall and lightly over.

Rudolph, who was usually a middle-bodied middle-body, turned into a troll-like giant. Moreover, the face, which was robust and rigorous, is also an expression that seems so ugly that it does not seem sensible.

- Dokundokundokun!

The red horn is pulsing like a heart.

"Ha-ha-ha... ha-ha-ha..."

His voice was also as low as Rudolph could possibly imagine.

His throat is crushed and his voice squeezed out as if desperately.

Ministers and soldiers are screaming and lagging behind as kings change.

Rudolph doesn't move on the spot, does he suffer from physical changes or does he look like he is enduring a great deal of distortion in his face? The muscles in the body swell and contract, which is moving so fast that it is unnatural.

"Terra! What have you done to Rudolph!

Judom reveals his anger and asks questions. Even if we do this, we're best friends to Judom.

I can't watch him be turned into a monster without knowing.

No. 02 then answers with a chilling glance at Rudolph.

"Apparently, it's a success. Now he can clear up and join the Demon Clan."

"... what happened?

"... right. It would have been more convenient to announce something on a more effective occasion, but their opponent is that Judom Lankers. Fine, I'll teach you just a little bit. May even your seemingly missing otum understand."

Judom listens in a good way, knowing how not to touch the eclampsia.

"This stone... do you know what it is?

That's what I've said and shown you was a little red stone like a ball of table tennis.

"The name of this stone is Magic Stone... Demon Stone. Oh, did you think it would stay that way now?

"... let it go. Explain it to me."

I thought, it was kind of embarrassing to be pursued there.

"Well, it sounds like an abbreviation, officially they call it Demonic Blood Demon Stone, but it seems to be long, so I shrink it and call it Demon Stone."

"What's that maseki?

"Earlier No. 03 pierced his chest. That's when Number 03 put this Demon Stone in his chest."

Judom was convinced that it was that Demon Stone that took it out of his nostalgia.

"This Demon Stone responds to magic. The embedded... will be."

"... a lot of things, huh?

"... Phew, it's getting kind of annoying"

"Just explain it to me!

"I have no choice. This Demon Stone is manufactured from the flesh of a Demon Nation."

"What...?

"A certain 'demon tribe' is the 'Kupidus' that is now supposedly doomed"

Judom frowned that he had never heard of it.

You perceived that feeling. No. 02 goes on to explain.

"It's no wonder you've never heard of it. Because it was a minority that existed long ago. But they had a special ability."

"Ability?"

"It's the ability to make what you eat flesh and blood, as you say."

"Huh? That would be the same for everyone. If you eat something, it's your own flesh and blood, right?

"... ha"

Judom, very deeply sighed, seemed ridiculed and blue-faced on his forehead.

"Okay? I said I was right."

"So, so."

"For example, you"

"What?"

"Yes, if you eat a person named Judom Lankers, you will be reborn as a being capable of fulfilling your body, your moves, your magic, everything."

"Become!?

"And let's say the Kupidus who ate you, for example, ate this number 03."

"... I don't want to be eaten by you"

No. 03 frowning just a little bit.

"Number 03, it's only an analogy."

"… I understand reluctantly"

"That's fine."

It's an exchange that gets a little out of my mind, but still, number 02 continues with a serious face.

"The 'Kupidus', who look just like you who ate No. 03, could now be similar to No. 03. Regardless of your strength and the strength of number 03, it is…"

I thought it was a hell of a race if that was true. The more you eat, the stronger you become.

That means there is no limit to growth.

But think a little there. I mean, why did you perish when you had such a substandard ability?

"Why... is it doomed...?

"Ugh..."

I feel like I'm being spotted and the cold runs.

"Reason for perishing. That's easy. Because it was destroyed by more than that."

"... well, if you think about it normally, you would, but was there such a hell of a guy who could fight a race?

"... I don't want to say it because it's an abominable name"

"Oops!

"Anyway, that's how it was destroyed."

Apparently I'm not going to tell you my name no matter what, so leave that alone for the first time and listen to the rest of the story.

"But before everything was destroyed by that person, they lost their own lives in a ruin,"

"You mean suicide...?

"Yes, in a ruin deep in the earth, they fell asleep saying death, but our master discovered the ruin."

…………

"And we got some mummified 'Kupidus'. And surprisingly, some still had trace amounts of blood. That's why I asked one person to cultivate the blood and thus resurrect it as a Demon Stone. Ha, I'm tired of explaining."

I feel like I'm done with my job, but I haven't gotten an answer to the key thing.

"Hey, wait a minute, so why don't you just bury Maseki!

"... why don't you put your head to work for a little bit," Shock King "? Or do you want to change your name to Smile King?

"You're so sloppy..."

"Absolutely, I have no choice. Look, this Demon Stone is a living 'Kupidus' itself if you say so. In other words, the Demon Stone, enlivened in response to magic in the body, eats the target cells and reshapes them. And as a result, we say it changes to look like it merges with the 'Kupidus'. Oh, by the way, change involves severe pain, and your body will be stiff for a while"

That's why Rudolph looked convinced that he couldn't move.

"And Rudolph's shadow isn't too much, is it?

Yes, it looks like a monster.

"Oh, that's because existence was too inert."

"Being?"

"Well, life, magic, will to live, that's all."

……

"If you are the one who eats but has weak presence, your figure will remain that of the one who has strong presence. In the case of kings, the presence of the original 'Kupidus' was stronger because they were inert, fragile, poor and frail, and the appearance of the 'Kupidus' was only darker. You laugh at being weaker than such a tiny stone. Well, there are many other reasons, but that's generally the case. Ha, now you're done."

"Not yet!

Then No. 02 stares at Judom looking really grumpy.

"What is it, muscle?

"Not a muscle! It's the key thing! How can Rudolph go back to normal!

"... you think I'm going back?

"Shit, these motherfuckers!

Judom turns to Rudolph and screams.

"Hey Rudolph! Go back to your sanity!

Then Rudolph, who had been in pain and stiff for a long time, wondered if he had trembled all over his body in a freak.

"Ha-ha-ha! Ha-ha-ha!

I moved the giant with dokadoka and grabbed the soldier nearby with his hand.

And what a strange sight, but he threw the soldier from his head into his own mouth. Everyone was bluishing their complexion when they saw a soldier fit into their mouth, cramping with pimples.

"Oh my... no, no, no, no! Modo! Oh, wow!

He moves around depending on the allowance and grabs the soldier and puts it in his stomach.

"Hey, what are you doing, Rudolph!

But Judom's cry has not reached him. I try to move to stop him, even by force, but number 03 stands.

"Hih, hih! Here, king! Wah, wah, it's me! Thank you for being Dennis!

You can't stand with your hips out, you desperately try to escape to the back, but it shows up in Rudolph's sight.

"De...... ni...... s?

"Oh, yeah! Your loyalty! At the minister's Dennis!

I smile at you for reminding me, but I get grabbed with rigid arms that moved my body to shake it off with momentum. As it is, the mistletoe giggles and unpleasant noises echo around.

"but... me... gi... boo... eh"

A tremendous pressure strikes Dennis as if his whole body is being fully tightened. His body naturally screams.

Judom screams to restore Rudolph to sanity while alerting No. 03, who is in the way in front of him, but it is also vain -.

In the end, Minister Dennis was thrown into Rudolph's belly.

What a disgruntled way to end.

In an attempt to help the minister, the captains of the National Army, who were holding back beside him, are stabbing him with a sword, but it has not worked at all.

On the contrary, he seems to have bought his anger, and Rudolph opens his big mouth and suddenly a laser-like attack is launched from that mouth.

"Hey, what?!?

Out of five people who couldn't stop responding to the sudden attack and its destructive power and even more tremendous speed, four were fed that laser.

One received in his head disappeared beautifully only in that part, and the one received in his belly experienced a disengagement between his upper and lower body. The others have also died in one blow. The rest of you, too, have just plundered, but they take your left arm and you get seriously injured.

Too much for the status quo, the other soldiers began to lose their morale and get away with it.

"Get out of the way!

Judom should be moving to stop Rudolph, but there was still Kiria, no 03, in front of him. We fist each other, but we are still doing this without being dealt decisive damage.

(Damn, I knew he was strong. Eh!

"Perhaps it's time to take Agridor to your husband, number 03"

Judom frowns at the words of No. 02.

"Agridore?"

"I'm talking about that ugly doll. Isn't that a good name?

"Ha, I feel nauseous!

"This is why people with no taste are uncomfortable."

But I was wondering how they treated Rudolph.

Perhaps it was Kilia and the others who took up the traitorous task at the talks this time. But Rudolph is stupid, but not stupid enough to easily believe in the 'Demon Tribe'.

Yet I believed them and tried to put the demon kings in my hands.

But the result is that Rudolph looks like just a handkerchief, no abandoned pawn. There is something hard to convince Rudolph that it was about getting a deal that contained such dangers.

What Judom thinks is perfectly natural.

Assuming the 'Demon Clan' shows up at his place and tells him to defeat the Demon King with me because I lend him a hand, there's no way he can believe it. Because everyone thinks the offer itself is a trap.

But Rudolph took the offer. That's because I decided it was quite safe with the benefits I would receive. Then what is its safety? It was something that Judom couldn't even think about.

This was about six months ago, after the 'Beast Nation' declared war against the 'Demon Nation' and waged war, but the demon king Yveam dropped the bridge connecting the two continents, and the war itself was interrupted, no, ended.

The Demon King had repeatedly sent a protégé of harmony in order to form an alliance with the 'human race' so that things like this would not happen.

But Rudolph, who felt the sincerity was unclear, was thrusting back on all his reluctant answers to his parent book.

Then one day a man appeared unto himself.

That was the time, as usual, when we were devising future measures with Minister Dennis against the 'Demons'. A samurai opened the office door and came in. She seemed to bring me some tea.

My throat was just dry, too, so I told Dennis to take a break because I thought it was just fine.

But the samurai would not bring the tea she had brought before Rudolph, but would shut the door and stand in front of it.

"... what's up? Bring it quick."

I frown a little uncomfortably at an ill-advised samurai.

But the samurai lifted up his face, which had made him bow down.

And look at her face. The two blues unexpectedly.

"Can I talk to you for a second?

Her skin, which releases words inorganically, dwelt in the shallow blackness characteristic of the 'Demon Nation'.

And the extreme is that the tip of the ear was pointed.

When they decided she was exactly a 'demon tribe' and tried to call for help out loud,

"I thought I should stop that."

Her words arrived pierced her chest for some reason.

The two harden with their mouths unwittingly open,

"Become!? Who are you?

Dennis moves his mouth in a desperate phase.

Then she carefully bowed her head,

"I'll see you first. My name is Kiria…"

"Kiria...... you say?

"Co, king?

"Ugh... speaking of Kiria, it should be the same as the name near the Demon King"

"It's Kiria."

I never thought such a big guy would show up here alone.

"... well, what's that proximity doing here? Are you trying to assassinate me?

I only try to keep my majesty, but if I tried Rudolph, I was at my best to talk to him so he wouldn't tremble. Because if she meant it, she thought we could kill ourselves in an instant.

"No, as I mentioned earlier, I came to talk to you."

"Talk... you say?

Rudolph turns his gaze in suspicion.

"Yes, we have a story that benefits both sides."

"... what are you talking about?

I move my eyebrows pickly and ask if I want to just listen to the story for now.

"Do you not want to destroy the 'Demons'...?

"What...?

For a moment, unable to understand what he is talking about, Rudolph faces Dennis and looks back at Kiria again with his neck tilted.

"What do you mean? Destroy the Demon Nation? Even your Lord will be the Demon Clan."

"Oh, I had a few words. Of course, the Demon Clan defies the Human Clan…"

"……… shall I ask you to speak in detail"

"Here, my king! Do you believe the words of such a frigid man?

"No, but I decided it was worth listening to. We also need to figure out if we're moving to conspire or not."

"But..."

Dennis stares anxiously at Kiria, but Rudolph shakes his head gently.

"Listen to the story and then judge. Listen to what you have to say."

"That's King Victoria, I miss you deeply"

"The entrustment is good. Tell me what you mean."

"Okay."

When Kiria breathed suddenly, she began to explain why she had come here.

"I want to destroy the 'Demon Nation'. Especially those beside the Demon King... If you ask me, this is revenge."

"... why? If you hate the Demon King in the first place, why do you serve by your side? No, if you're serving, why don't you just look at the gaps and kill them?

"It's not that simple."

"What do you mean?

"It's not the Demon King that I hate the most, but those around it. It's easy to kill a demon king, but I want to kill them with the utmost helplessness and humiliation."

The Rudolphs were shivering thoughts when they felt Kiria's eyes stain cold and dark.

"I want to assassinate the Demon King on more effective occasions. We need your help to do that."

I see. So we're in a meeting.

"That's what I mean"

Rudolph was nodding with a rugged look, but even if you feel her black emotions, you can't believe it that easily.

"Perhaps they will be escorted in the talks. But if a demon king is killed in front of them, you will mourn your helplessness. And that's how you get a taste of despair, and then you kill them."

I hear noises coming from the throats of Gokuri and Dennis. Rudolph accidentally gets his fist into it, too. This person feels serious and fears its daring and invincible plan.

"Why... do you want revenge?

"Oh? Weren't you deprived of something important? Or do you think there's no vengeance, even though they took it?

"... No, indeed, the sacrifice you paid to destroy the 'Demon Nation'... is a great one. I can't take it with laughter like an alliance."

"It would be. I was deprived of something important, too. That's why I can't forgive them right now. Please, why don't you drop [Demon Nation/Heros] with us?

Staring into Kiria's eyes.

Time passed for a while without distracting us from each other.

Then Saddle Rudolph cuts his gaze and opens his teasing mouth.

"Did you just say us? Who else knows about that plan?

"This is the side of the Eelaola guarding the border."

"What the...!

That was a pretty fascinating word.

The only ordinary bridge, the [bridge of Moutihi], is an absolute defensive line, and it is also trusted by the Demon King to be entrusted there, and his strength should be of the top class. What a convenience for such a person to be on the side of betrayal.

"Then surely, we can strike a lot of the lead. But......"

……

"It's only about when the Lord's word was true. I'm not telling you to believe me without proof, am I?

"Of course it is. Trust is especially time-consuming. That's why send your most trustworthy intelligence unit to [Heros] to make sure. I can tell Ellaora to go through with it without doing anything."

"... Dennis"

"Yes, sir"

"Get the third unit on its way to confirmation. Oh, no, if this story is true, would a few elites be better off for tipping off information..."

Rudolph puts his hand on his chin and makes an idea face.

"... um, use adman"

"I see, he's been serving intelligence since his predecessors, and he might be able to figure out the truth. Yes, sir."

"You said Kiria, let me find out if your Lord's words are true once and for all here. And..."

Rudolph opens the locked desk drawer and takes out a piece of paper.

"This is-"

"I know. Paper of Contract."

"Yes, write that you will not betray us on this. Let's start with that."

Then Kiria takes the same paper out of Gossogoso and the pocket.

"Actually, I thought you'd be more comfortable with that, too."

"I see. So you meant to do it from the beginning."

"Yes. But this one alone is unfavourable. Even for us, if you betray me, it's over. So I want you to make sure you don't betray us."

"... you're right"

What she says is supremely natural. Unilateral contracts and other bones of stupidity. The contract is in the interest of both parties and is the first to be formed with shackles on both sides.

"But I'm signing this paper only after I hear the investigation report from Adman"

"That's a wise decision. Ok. I'll be back in three months."

That's what Kiria said and walked out the door.

"Do you really have an alliance with him?

"I don't know yet. As it is now, his plans are vague. Just check the border and investigate [Demon Nation]."

Then after a while, the information sent by Adman was all convenient here.

As it turned out, Kiria proved she wasn't lying.

It was easy to cross the bridge, as well as create a base for when Adman's intelligence forces had to be near [Heros]. That was something Kiria could do because she turned her hand around and set the scene for me.

That way it was also possible to explore a lot of [Heros] information, and to obtain information that could be taken to defeat it, such as the reliable appearance and inner structure of [Heros], which I had never known before.

And three months later, as I said, she appeared again.

"Did you believe me?

"Surely what the Lord was saying was true"

"So..."

Kiria took the Paper of the Covenant from her nostalgia,

"Sign here."

But Rudolph faces reluctantly. I still don't believe it anywhere.

"Rest assured. This is the story I brought up. Read the contract carefully."

Rudolph glances wide open at her as she passes through the paper.

In summary, this is what it said.

[We don't betray each other. Do not act against both sides. The only thing to destroy is the 'demon tribe' designated by Kiria. period until [Heros] is controlled]

I didn't have a problem with that condition because I want it here as well. But the next condition was something that would obviously tilt my neck.

[If Kiria betrays you, it gives you instant death]

In the event of betrayal of a contract exchanged in the General Contract Paper, the life expectancy will be cut according to the contents, but it will not be taken to life.

But in its terms, Kiria gave her own life.

"Ko, this is..."

"You can take it as proof that I'm serious. I take this opportunity... to risk my life."

Looking at his unwavering eyes, Rudolph on the spot, Dennis, was a barometric thought.

More than that, I was made to understand that the thoughts hanging on this plan were extraordinary.

"... ok. I understand the plan because your Lord has kept you informed in writing. I was a little surprised by the contents of forming an alliance with the 'Beast Nation', but I see it makes sense to crush [the Demon Nation] for sure"

"I don't mind pretending if it's for revenge. King, you must be boiling back, too, right? Think of the cause you had to sacrifice your own child."

…………

"This one doesn't want a country anymore. The demon kingdom should also be ruled by you. But only my people would like to have mercy."

"That's a natural right. Even so, I don't want to kill my collaborators."

"It helped me to hear that."

"Comrades from now on."

That's what Rudolph signed the Paper of the Contract. The paper emitted a pale light, which became particulate. It was sucked into the chest of Kiria and Rudolph, respectively.

"We have a contract."

"Oh."

"Then let's boil down to the detailed plan. Ensure… that our scenario can be completed"

"Oh."

"I'm about to get information about [Holy Land Ordine], the meeting place. See you later."

Kiria quietly walked out the door again.

"Now the demon kingdom will be ours too...... right?

Minister Dennis is giggling happily.

"Yes, it finally comes true. Now the daughters of the eagle will float."

"But king, after you control [the demonic kingdom], do you really protect the Killians?

"... hehe, I don't know"

I saw that face. Dennis laughs the same way. Yes, they intend to destroy even Kilia. Contract details until [Heros] is controlled. After that, we won't be punished for anything we do.

(Perhaps it would be a vendetta to set a time limit... Kiria)

Rudolph exhales loudly when he thinks about what's to come, wondering if he's finally here. If I think I can fulfill the 'human race' grief in my own generation, I have something that I'm not worthy of being old and excited about.

Until now, for Rudolph, the brave man was the trump card, but only in this scenario, no doubt, the main fate was Kiria's.

If you want to complete the scenario, we'll gladly abandon the brave and treat them like pawns. Because they are the pawns they summoned to save us.

(The scenario is simmered to incorporate the annihilation of the beasts. What... they are one rock but brittle. If the Beast King dies, it will be too soon to disintegrate)

So this world belongs to the 'human race'. I don't mind leaving it because it's a being that doesn't change whether you're there or not, such as The Spirit Clan. This will put an end to the dispute. We can build a peaceful world.

(Kiria... let me thank you. With the Lord's honorable sacrifice, I can grasp peace)

But Rudolph hadn't noticed. That even Kiria had spotted the thought.

And that Rudolph, no, the 'human race' keeps dancing on Kyria's palms...
