Kuro no Maou

The elegant room is nothing but gorgeous, but it should be called an ultra-class interior decorated with an exquisite balance.

The clean white and gorgeous light peach-colored interior was truly the ideal of a dreaming maiden, the embodiment of the princess' room itself.

The most luxurious and prominent feature in the room is the huge bed with canopy.Lying on that bed that guarantees superb softness ———— No, the Zazen is the owner of this room and the real princess.The First Princess of Avalon, Nell Julius Elrode.

……

So will you set up zazen on the bed for an hour, two hours, or even three hours at the earliest?

The perfect posture with the tall white wings wide open and the spine stretched out is still unshakable.The expression is a quiet thing that closes the eyelids as if sleeping peacefully, but the pure white balls' skin is floating with a large grain of sweat, flowing through the glamorous limbs.

But I don't think I can feel the glitter in her sweaty clothes in the thin silk room.The aura of magical power that gushed up from the entire body of the motionless Nell was a thin blue color.

For three hours, her magic power was filling the room, and her magic power density was like that of a boss room in a high difficulty dungeon.If an adventurer's party suddenly shifts here, there will definitely be an inexperienced boss monster who will reflexively hold a weapon.So much "power" filled this room.

"----Nell, it's me."

It was the voice of a man who broke the silence filled with magical power.

It's the voice of Nero, my brother, who has listened well.

Here you go.

Nell opened her eyes quietly and replied in a flat voice.

"That's an amazing alchemy." Rather than outside the room, it was drifting down the stairs. "

His dazed face and tone were always the same as his brother's.

However, the robe suitable for the king and the crown symbolizing the royal power shine over his head.

"You're a master of ancient jujitsu."If it's just your technique, you might not be the enemy anymore. "

You have a lot of time to chat with your sister. The new king's job is...

Without pointing at her face or breaking her posture, Nell turned away coldly with blue eyes.

"Oh dear, you're still in a slanted mood, princess."

"There's no girl who would be happy to be confined in a barrier like this, oniisama."

"I'm sorry, Nell, but we can't just lose you."

This is Nell's private room on the upper floor of Avalon Royal Castle.From the time she was assigned her room, to the time she went to study at Sparda, she was supposed to live there.

Nero was awakened as an apostle in the village of Dakia, and Nell managed to retreat from the scene using himself as a shield.Then I followed quietly to Avalon, where I was placed under house arrest for the time being.

Recently, however, the entire upper floor of this royal enclave was closed by a terrifyingly powerful barrier.It seems to be a special barrier in the Crucifixion, called the "Cathedral Barrier (Sanctuary)".At least, even with his polished fist, Nell couldn't crack this barrier.

Even if Celice betrays you and your father escapes, can't you still admit your mistakes?

"Don't worry, I don't hate them as much as I want to kill them."

"What an arrogant saying worthy of a man drowned in power."

"It's just a fact."

Nero's ironic smile is by no means bluffing.You probably don't think it's a big deal that you missed them.

In fact, Avalon is already in the hands of Nero and the Cross.Sparda, the greatest obstacle to hostilities, has finally been captured by the Crusaders.Having already embraced Miriad, the king of the exile, there is no country in the neighborhood that can affect this Neo-Avalon.

"I think it's bad that I've forced you into confinement."In the meantime, I will expand the barrier to the entire Royal Castle, so that I can move freely within the Royal Castle.Until then, I want you to be patient for a while. "

For the rest of my life, I'm a cage bird.

"I can't believe I'm freeing you in the near future."If you're an adventurer again, you can live as you please--after I get all of Pandora's continent. "

Instead of being full of ambition, Nero said, his face merely stating the facts.

Continental unity is inhabited by the arrogant delusions and laughable powers of Nero.Nell exhaled small but deeply.

"Do you take everything in the world as you see fit?"

"Yes, the world is full of things that don't go your way.That's why I'm twisting the world like that with my strength.I'll create the world I want.In that world, Nell, you're free to flap your wings. "

"There's no freedom there."

A world determined by the will of one person.A world ruled by a single force.You think it's God to speak freely in such a world?Too much exuberance, Nell also gives up on repeating more words.

Still, all I can do is talk to Nero.If your heart shakes a little bit.

No, I'm going to give up myself, but I still want Nero to wake up my real brother.

"There is no place for me on any road, in a world ruled by crucifixion."Kill all demons. Is that the doctrine? "

If the exclusion of non-humans has already begun, Nell will hear about it even if she lives under house arrest here.I don't hear that Rikishi killed a lot of people, but there is no guarantee that such a terrible thing will not happen in the end.

Thorough human supremacy, the idea of the elimination of other races.It is simple, and that is why it brings strong unity to man.

What, Nell, were you worried about such nonsense?

Nero said with a genuinely surprised and dazed expression.The face was as if I had found my sister who had exhibited tone-deafness when I went to the inn just one street away.

Because I'm your sister, even the demon tribe will miss me.

"No, you're an angel."

Nero said so with a smile of compassion, just as he reached out to Nell, who was lost in the road while saying that she was my younger sister.

And on his face, and on his word, Nell's spine was dumbfounded.

"Angel... am I an angel?"

"Oh, yeah. There's a beautiful white wing growing on my back."You're an angel. It seems like the White God sent me down there.

I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I

Your voice trembles, whether it's anger, or despair, which diminishes even the slightest hope.Or is it due to too much pity and embarrassment?Nell screamed with tears in her eyes.

"---- I'm just Harpy's quarter!"What is an angel, ridiculous!! "

Nell's mother is a royal lady from Harpy's country, Windham.It was half human and not officially treated as Princess Wyndham, but it seemed to be very cute from the royal family and was highly recommended as the second wife of King Avalon Miriad as a sign of friendship.

As a result, her marriage to Miriard was concluded and she was welcomed to the Royal Palace of Avalon as the Second Lady on a sunny day.

And the child that was made between them was Nell.

No one doubted that Nell had white wings on her back.Of course, because her mother was Harpy's half, and she had the same angelic white wings on her back as Nell.

"Are you saying that you don't know that anymore, oniisama!?"

"The descendants of the Demon King have become messengers."Birth would be trivial.If I want Nell to be an angel, it's the truth. "

Humans. Demons. Even with the doctrine that life and death are decided by the birth of a race, birth is called a trivial thing.There is neither reason nor anything, the contradiction itself.

No, in Nero's opinion, they're all in order.

For him, the value of being is entirely different from that of his recognized self.I'm not interested in anyone but myself.

To unify the Pandora is not an ambition to crouch down and dominate all, but a sense of purpose to create an environment that simply does not allow the existence of [enemies].

That's why Nero doesn't need logic to convince millions of people.There is only absolute power to justify what you want and want to be true.

Therefore, even if you kill Harpy as a demon race, Nell, who inherits his blood, will never forgive you as an angel.For Nero, the ultimate discrimination is justice.

"I see... I see..."

Nelle realized that Nello was trapped in such a selfish idea.It would be pointless to say anything in this way.Even the words of my beloved sister will not reach me anymore.

"If you care, I can get you out of here anytime."

Are you saying you're an angel and want to use it to preach?

"I told you, you're free."If you want me to sacrifice you, I'll have as many places as I can. "

"Oniisama, you've gone astray as a person."But I'm sure of it. ”

"Oh my, you've always been stubborn in weird places."

With a bitter smile, Nero turned his back on his heel.I don't think I need to keep talking to my sister any longer.

After slightly rubbing against his back, Nell called out.

“Tell me one thing.”

Oh, what?

"Mother Elise."

"If it's Mother, I sent her to Asbel's villa first."Unlike my dad, you obeyed me nicely. "

In the main room of King Miriad, Queen Elise is the woman who married from the house of one of Avalon's earls.The twelve nobles were not named; they were so influential in the land, and so influential in the land.Even if it did not significantly affect the balance of power of the nobility in the country, it was decided to marry Miriard without any opposition.

Perhaps the most decisive factor was that the two were tied at the end of a truly romantic relationship that they had been dating since the Imperial school days.

As a concubine who was asked not to wave among the nobles, Elise never used the position of the queen to speak.Always a husband and King Miriad, standing quietly next to him.Even if I open my mouth, I only speak as the queen demands. She is such a woman.

I'm sure it's not just an act that can explain its position, it's also a natural temperament.

Even for Nero, I had the impression that Queen Elise, the real mother, was a quiet woman.

Even though he had overturned the flag and taken the throne from his father, Miriad, Elise did not blame Nero.From now on, in Asbel's villa, if you tell her that you want her to hide with her father, she will only nod quietly.

However, as a mother, Nero, Nell, and the two brothers and sisters were talking about the contents of their body.

If you want to live with your mother, that's fine.

Mother Elise, you should stay away from Avalon.

For Nell, Elise is the undisputed mother.It is most right to say that you are the parent of the upbringing.

The biological mother, who was a harpy half, was originally sick and weak, and her postpartum fertility after giving birth to Nell was bad, and she could not return.Miriald grieved a lot, but it may have been a good thing that Nell was not even aware of his mother's death.

Even more fortunate, Lady Elise loved and raised Nell, the daughter of the Second Lady.Even with a real son, you can say that Nero and Nell were able to spend time as good brothers and sisters because of her presence.

I didn't think that Nero would treat her mother like anybody else, but I wanted to make sure.

If you stay at Avalon Royal Castle, you may be in danger of getting caught in the crossfire.

"I'm not leaving here."

"I see. Then you should see it here."May I unite the Pandora. "

There's nothing to hide from my sister.With that said, he turned the king's robe, and Nero left.

It was the next day.

There was a huge explosion in the corner of the garden at the back of Avalon Castle.

"---- Jeez, what the hell is going on?"

Nero jumped out of the office and immediately rushed to the scene.

What a ruckus, you say, but the approximate circumstances are already known.

Nero, I never heard of a monster like this in the Royal Castle.

It was the Twelfth Apostle Marybell who rose up from the ground of the lawn, where the earth smoke that could come in, and the grass that was scorched, complaining to Nero.

No matter how lavish a body such as an aristocrat's chick is, it emits an aura of tremendous white magic power, contrary to its appearance.In other words, it is in a state of battle that reveals its power as an apostle.

"Oh, yeah, no, I totally forgot."

"I forgot!?"Leave such a powerful monster in the garden. "

"---- Look at this poor maiden, she's called a monster, she's a rude boy"

A young girl emerges from a stone staircase climbing a small hill covered in trees on the other side where the smoke settles.

The girl diving down the bright red torii gate provided on the stone staircase wears a white coat and a red raincoat.It was a shrine maiden costume that was completely different from the crucifixion and the Pandora's Temple.

Such a shrine maiden's head had two sharp and majestic horns.At the tip of the small limb, a dragon's claw covered in a pitch-black scales grew.

It is Belcrozen, the girl of the Black Dragon, who the ancient king Avalon continues to hide as a shrine maiden of the "House of Fire".

"Hey Baba, go back to the company quietly."That way, I won't give you a clue.Just like I've always done. "

"Hmm, that rude kid doesn't seem to think so."

Velcrozen's usual tone and honest and noble tone to the child, but his crimson eyes showed a clear intent to kill.Nero is the first person to see her in the garden of the royal castle, where she has lived for so long, with a serious intent to kill.

Therefore, I have already realized that the fight is unlikely to be avoided anymore.

"Of course. Demons and monsters are unacceptable, no exceptions."You can't allow this to happen in Avalon, the epicenter of Pandora's future, without knowing that mission is the end of the boundary, Nero. "

"---- I agree with Marie-chan's opinion."

And there was a great shadow of black upon his head, and it came down from above, the eleventh Apostle Mass.

Like Nero, he heard the commotion early and jumped from his proud aerial fortress on the royal castle.

Zudon landed in the garden with a flashy sound, and in the hands of Mass, the execution sickle's armed scripture "The Arc Division" was held, and it wore an aura of silver.

Damn it, he's out of trouble

"Who smells like Mendoza? I hear you, Nero."

Mass glares at Nero with his half masked eyes.

Hey, Baba, why don't you get out of here?

"Huh... when I kicked out this concubine..."If you break the ancient covenant you made with the royal family, so be it, Nero. "

"I'm sorry."But it's a bit of a hassle for me to stop them.We're gonna kill each other.I didn't take good care of Baba, and I miss Nell... I don't want her to die. "

It is the heart of Nero, the liar.

In the first place, Nero doesn't need to lie anymore.It doesn't cover up, it tells its true meaning and has the power to penetrate it.

"Hmm, you've been dumbfounded by the white power of betrayal."

“Whatever you say. But Pandora's whole life will be a crucifixion.As usual, we can't leave the Black Dragon Clan here. "

"I told you to get out of here this time, because I prevented my concubine from sleeping and woke her up.Humans are truly generous beings. "

"It would be much better to die in vain."Now, if you can move to Asbel's villa, I can make you feel more comfortable than here. "

"----No, you're crazy."

Belcrosen's murderous gaze was finally directed at Nero.

I've seen Nero since he was a child, far from being a grandson.

"Even such a nari is elderly."I never thought I'd be that comfortable. "

"No, it's the concubine's mission to be here."You can never throw it out.Even if this body were to perish. "

"Totally, this guy is always stubborn and troublesome."I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to build up strength from here on out. "

Nero knew too well that the Black Dragon's power was too strong for Velcrozen.Therefore he finally tried to unleash his power as an apostle.

"I see, Black Dragon... just in time."Nero, will you leave it to me? "

"What, are you saying you like Baba?"

"It's a surprising thing to say, but it's not wrong to say that you liked it.The Second Apostle, Sir Abel, has heard that during his previous visit to Pandora, he served the Black Dragon. ”

Mariabel's specialization ability (iguist) is "Spirit Beast Summoning (Superior Samon)".God-given summoning magic can use powerful monsters that cannot be handled normally.

It has both the ability to summon monsters that do not live in this world, such as the "Fire Lion Prince Engard" and the "Guardian of the Sky Garden (Sky High Guardian)", as well as the ability to train (tame) wild dragons and beasts, obey them, and use them.

"In order to fight those demons, I needed more powerful Summon Beasts."I want to follow Lord Abel's example and get one of Pandora's Black Dragons. "

Despite the challenge by the two apostles, the demons tasted the humiliating defeat in that distant desert, which they had no choice but to escape.

Already, the power of the spirit beasts that were used at that time has been restored, but if you look at the same power again, you will lose your life without reaching your strength.That's why Mariabelle decided to focus her efforts on expanding her power to capture more powerful Summon Beasts when she returns to this Avalon.

At that time, it was lucky to find a powerful dragon as powerful as the Black Dragon in the garden of the Imperial Castle where it was based.

I see, this Baba is a good hobby to use as a demon (Servant).

"Eh, Marie-chan, you really want to switch from Sariel to that cheeky kid!?"

How to say it!!

Mariabelle was furious when she was under suspicion for her unexpected sexuality, even though she was supposed to be serious about increasing her combat power.

However, I have to say it properly, even if I have to be careful with Mass and even Nero.

Now there are three apostles in all.No matter how famous the Black Dragon was, it could be killed by accident.

"Anyway, I'll take that black dragon." You don't have to do anything. "

"Baba is so strong." If I wanted to be alive, I'd be better off. I'll give you a hand. "

"I haven't had any trouble lately, so I feel like I'm lacking in exercise... I can't help it, I'll help you, thank you, Marie-chan."

"Please don't kill me, especially Mass."

"Don't worry, I don't want Baba to die either."I'll let you keep it. "

So the three apostles took their weapons.

On the other hand, Velcrosen stood quietly without taking the stance of ancient jujitsu.However, there was tremendous magic power and murderous intent in those crimson eyes.

"Is this the end of the concubine?"It was an unfulfilled mission... I'm sorry, sister.Please scold my concubine in this world. "

With the words of reproach, I only twist my eyes once.

When he reopened, Belcrozen's eyes were completely transformed into those of a dragon.

In an instant, the red sparks blinked violently along with the huge amount of black magic aura from the tiny body.

A pitch-black wing that rolls high in the sky.The giant body covered in black dragon scales was truly a black iron fortress.At the tip of the limbs are ferocious claws that even tear steel easily, and the long, supple tail will break down the castle walls with a single blow.

It's been 250 years since I woke up in this world.

Abandoning the figure of a pseudo-girl, Belcrozen finally revealed her true form as a black dragon.
