Kuro no Maou

- My name is Joseph Rodriguez.

Behind the reception room, the devil's big man, seated on a leather sofa wrapped around a dark shadow, named so with a heavy bass that shook up those who listened.

A real demon. The two horns that grow from the side head extend to poke heaven, yet emit a sense of crown-like intimidation.

Wearing a coat as bright as blood, a thick chest muscle is swollen up on the wide open chest. The complexion is dark, pitch-black everywhere.

It was the appearance of the black two-horned demon clan, Diabolos himself, who rightly remembers and hears.

Nice to meet you, Lily.

Lily, who answers easily, never insults Joseph.

If you wonder what kind of hectic figure the boss of a gang on the verge of natural extinction is, Joseph's signs are pretty good. I can honestly feel as threatened as I was before the Rank 5 monster.

At least, you'll have shameless combat ability in the name of the devil.

If it is a battle, the struggle is forced.

Right now, only Lily is in this reception room, and Fiona and Saliel are waiting in separate rooms.

In contrast, in addition to the deacon's oak that guided him, the Minotaur giant, who would be the boss's escort, and the secretary and the beauty of his contemplative age, refrain.

The old butler oak has his sword down his waist, and Minotaur is wearing his armor helmet disappointingly. The woman is also definitely a sacubus because of her overexposed costume, like Sariel's Prim Mail, with horns and tails.

From the signs, sooner or later, no less fierce. I assume these four are comparable in strength to the Rank 5 Adventurer Party... but I'm not here to fight.

Lily was not anxious about the shards either. Because when Joseph made the decision to bring himself in here, it was like talking.

"Sorry for the sudden visit"

"A fairy tribe is a loose end. But it's also hard to get too noisy"

"If we don't do this, you won't see me right away."

When it comes to falling chaos leggion, it's hard to truly apologize with a boss. Because these things depend roughly on the tsutes.

If you want to meet with the boss, you have to be as present as you think you have to be.

Lily therefore carried out an agitation (demonstration) that could rock the security of the Anglo-South area, bringing a large crowd of people to the front of the mansion.

"Lily, something like that... let me ask you something"

Please help me.

"Make what happen"

"I'll take everything Carla Mara has."

Silence dominates the response interval.

When it's like it's frozen. But

"Huh...... cum, huhahahaha!

Joseph laughs. Is that a mockery of the hilariousness of grand language, or,

"Kukukuku, I don't know if anyone who wants to steal the country will show up in this day and age."

"Nothing is easier to steal than Carla Mara. I wonder if you've prepared it for me."

"So, there is... this endless city of desire,"

Once, everyone had ambition to rule Carla Mara. With the resources produced from the Great Labyrinth, it would be possible to become a great power that dominates not only the Atlas Great Desert, but also the southern part of the continent.

But the rights of the complicated and intertwined big merchants. Adventurers holding the secrets of the Great Labyrinth attack. And a gang that jumps and treads.

Carla Mara is the one with a force situation that is too chaotic. Xanadu, the king of adventure, did not become a true king.

It is impossible to unite Carlamara as one country, and it is the people who live here who refuse to do so more than anyone else.

They choose dangerous freedom over the peace of domination.

"Lily, let me ask you, show you a sure sign enough to rule this chaotic land."

"... it's getting dark."

Answer Joseph's question, which emits tremendous pressure, as if he hadn't heard.

But Joseph realizes that Lily's gaze looks out the window at the streets of Anglo-South, where the sun has just begun to fall into the darkness of the night.

The population has also halved since its peak, a lonely and long-time Anglo-South, but tens of thousands of inhabitants still remain here. The majority of them are uncomfortable in other districts, subraces of the minority. This city is such a safe place for them to live, it is the last place.

The light that lit the dark streets was above all eloquent in telling the existence of the people living there. There are still a lot of people living in this city.

"If this light goes out, it's very hard."

A serious Lily flush in her young appearance shoots through Joseph.

Moments, chills run on the spine of the demon boss.

"No way -"

Pattin

And, Lily squeals her little finger.

Then it disappeared.

The city lights, everything.

"Carla Mara is a city of ancient ruins. We use the ether supply to cover light, water, fire, all of them."

Where does the energy of the dazzling light shine brilliantly across the city come from, including in the centre?

That's because there's a magic supply running through the Great Labyrinth.

Where does Carlamara's domestic water, one of Pandora's leading large populations, come from in the middle of this desert?

This is because water sources and water purification facilities in the Great Labyrinth are in operation.

From the fire used for cooking, how does the great firepower, which is responsible for industrial power, burn?

Both the combustion device and the magic power to fire are all installations of ancient ruins.

Carla Mara, a big desert city with nothing else but the Great Labyrinth. A lot of people can live here without liberty, except because the foundation of life that supports it is provided from the beginning in ancient ruins. Because of the availability of those facilities, Carla Mara was able to develop so far.

But on the contrary, if all of this stops...

"I suppressed the monolith of 'Temennigle'. Lifelines in non-central districts are roughly what I grip"

That means Lily already holds the lives of the people who live there.

Pattin

Ringing his fingers again, the light lit the city of Anglo-South again, as if nothing had happened.

"... I see, and then if you get the deepest 'original monolith'"

"Carla Mara can rule"

Silence again. But there is much more painful silence than before.

From Joseph's mouth, no high laughter finally leaked.

"Come here tomorrow."

"Is it okay for me to spend the night thinking?

"Good, it's too much time to decide your mind"

Is that a determination to take Lily's hand and embark on the conquest of Carla Mara?

Or are you ready to stab this horrible fairy and stop it?

Either way, Joseph makes a choice. As one man, as the boss of a gang.

"I expect a colorful reply."

Then, and Lily gently got off the couch and left the reception room.

Joseph looked out the window at Lily as she took her offering and left the mansion. Across the street, after seeing the fairy's back disappear, which houses a small but strong glow, he turns back to the delivery he refrains from behind.

"Oh man, a fairy brings in some trouble"

Some years ago, the same 'big fairy' as Lily visited here.

For that fairy, who is free to run and unattended, she burned her hands - but compared to the story Lily brought in today, I thought she was commonsense.

"Ruling all of Carla Mara,"

smudge and whine words like dream stories.

But I've already seen the sight of dreams becoming reality, no, nightmares becoming reality.

"So far, the ancient magician who manipulates the monolith (Enchanted Wizard) is about to show up… do you think heaven sent Xanadu's successor?"

Very little, but those who know, that the Adventure King Xanadu and his foundation control much of Karamara because they hold some of the operating authority of the original monolith.

The Great Labyrinth is, namely, a huge ancient site. The original monolith is a control device for manipulating it, and being able to use it is synonymous with being able to do what you want with the ruins. If only a little could manipulate that function, it would make it easy to make a big profit from the Great Labyrinth.

Thus, it is not known how far Xanadu himself has placed the original monolith in control. That is the most important confidentiality for Xanadu. Perhaps only he/she will know.

"What do you think? Is he the vessel of the ruler, or a rare petitioner?"

"Unfortunately, we cannot even think about it."

Sincerely drooling his head, the old butler Orc said first.

Instead of making a statement about your servant, you should take it as a word for it.

"We have the same wasp. It's not a matter of wasps pinching your mouth."

Subsequently, the secretary of Sacubus also imitates the butler.

Even she, who always gives accurate advice, makes me realize once again the seriousness of what this means.

"Me, Difficult Shiikoto, Wakaranai. Demo, Dear Joseph, Shinjil"

Finally, says Minotaur, the escort.

He really puts it here with only his arm, but that pure loyalty is now appreciated.

"Um, um... Then it would be good to ask our fate, Heaven. Grandpa, connect me to Master Baba."

Joseph gives his life to the butler, nodding to Eagle Deep.

"Ha, we already have it here"

And the butler, who had predicted that the order would be given, had completed the installation of a large crystal ball on the desk.

"Thank you"

"If you give the prophecy from the Great Baba, let the wasps back down"

"No, good. Be with me on this occasion, the word of destiny, hear me out."

"Ha!

So the butler, the secretary, the escort, and the three waited in a one-kneed position, and Joseph laid down his crystal balls in front of them. Subordinate laying flat in front of the sitting boss. The figure, though gangster, was as rigorous as a real king and subordinate.

"My voice, let it reach the other side -" Sensory Crossing (Signal Trans) ""

Starts a surgical formula that enables telepathic communication using crystal balls.

Joseph's thoughts immediately reach the other person and allow for conversation.

In Carla Mara, the facilities and magic equipment (magic items) of a site that converse with a remote opponent are expensive but not uncommon. However, from the point of view of safety of communication interception, it would be about Joseph using crystal communication due to his previous telepathic abilities.

It's laborious and magical, but right now, I appreciate being able to talk to someone I trust without leaking to anyone.

That's how Joseph's thoughts led through the crystal sphere to his opponent with the same thing, the Great Baba, Chaos Legion's biggest advisor.

"Hmm, yes? Baba."

"Oh, Grandma? Me, me, me!

"Oh, Joseph, it's been a while."

"I'm sorry, Grandma, I've been so busy lately..."

The gang's bossy attitude collapses into a moment and Joseph is in complete private mode.

But whoever blames him for such a figure is not among the three who are this chosen squire.

We all know each other well. Joseph was raised by the great Baba from birth, that he was a big grandmother.

"Yeah, I ate Minkan, thanks!

"Really? Aren't you a little sober? I thought it was a little early to harvest it."

"Yeah, totally, it was so sweet and delicious!

After about an hour of such heartwarming public discourse between his grandmother and grandson, Joseph finally gets to the point.

"-So, come on, what I communicated with you today is that you want your grandmother to divine something for you."

"Well, well, Joseph's finally got a girl who cares,"

"It's too soon for love fortune! I'm not even fifty yet."

"Oh, yeah, Joseph's still a pretty boy."

"Better than that, uh, it's not about girls to get a fortune,"

"Ho."

"A fairy kid came to us earlier... uh, not a normal fairy, big guy. Probably a fairy princess."

"Well, I didn't know the same girl was here before."

"No, apart from that kid. I mean, it's not like I came here today. Even if I didn't have to do a protective appraisal, I was so protective of Iris. What the hell, that kid's already scared."

"It's time for Iris, the fairy queen, to find a successor."

"So, such an awesome fairy princess comes to us and tells me to help. Grandma, what do you think I should do?

"Aye, okay, wait a minute. Let's divine it now - life goes around, death goes around, the circle of living circulation" Destiny Wheel Fine ""

The protection of the Great Baba is the famous' Fate Wheel Fine 'as divine of fortune.

Greater Baba, one of the founding members who served the Rodriguez family from his grandfather's day and arose Chaos Legion, withdrew from numerous difficulties or brought good fortune by this divination by Fine.

The great defeat in the war against Silverian, which caused the current chaos leggion to be pushed to the brink of natural extinction, was due in the first place to Joseph's father's disregard for the divination of the Great Baba and his battle with anger.

Chaos Legion, which has been successful by her fortune, but this one makes even greater Baba fortune important. Well, Joseph has a faithful personality, unlike his father.

It was a natural choice for Joseph to entrust this important choice that would shape the future of Chaos Legion to the fortune of the Great Baba.

No matter what future awaits you with that, you have no regrets about that choice.

"... I see it"

Master Big Baba's twinkling voice was heard through the crystal.

This small but harsh voice is undoubtedly in a state of 'looking to the future', expressing the protection of Fine.

After listening word for word, Joseph kept his ears close to the crystal.

"Oh what a disastrous crimson light...... besides, this covers Carla Mara, the dark clouds"

Joseph has a bad feeling running around in full bloody disturbing word on-parades.

Unexpectedly, swallow gokuri and spit. If I can do it, I also feel like closing my ears and not wanting to hear anything anymore.

"Cover all of Carla Mara... No, this is the desert of Atlas... No way, it's impossible, it's black all over the Pandora continent - hey!!

Bachkin!!

Highly echoed was the sound of a cracked crystal ball.

"Hih! Hih..."

Joseph saw a crystal ball with a big crack in it, cooling his liver to death. Or I already have tears in my eyes.

"Oh, Grandma... what the hell is this..."

"Joseph, Dear Fine's fortune was turned down along the way. I've never seen anything like this before."

"I've never seen a crystal ball crack before, either."

"Look, Joseph, listen carefully. The fairy princess will one day have a great influence not only on Carla Mara, but on all of the Pandora continent. I don't know if that's good grace or bad disaster."

No, it felt absolutely bad, didn't it? was Joseph, who was too horrible to pinch his mouth.

"Do not defy. Never defy that fairy princess! Already, a gigantic flurry of destiny is swirling in Carla Mara"

That means it's impossible to politely refuse and pierce irrelevance.

Joseph realized that he had already been drunk by a great wave of destiny at the stage where he met Fairy Princess Lily.

"From the mouth of the eagle, nothing more can be said... Joseph or, oh my sweet eagle boy... than this, a harsh trial will descend upon him"

"... yeah, I get it, Grandma"

Having been told so far, as a boss, no, as one man, there is nothing better than to be prepared.

Shut down the telepathic communication quietly, and Joseph turns again to the lay down delivery.

I wet my tears, raised my face, and made a grand declaration.

"Our chaos leggion goes down to the fairy princess Lily and accomplishes Carla Mara unification!
