Kuro no Maou

By the time the moon of dawn comes to an end.

Carlamara, for God's sake, pandemonium.

Lily, the queen of the new kingdom, was walking alone. Forgive me for my daily routine of obeying and always playing like a king when I have gained the throne. Lily also walked through a city crowded with lots of people dressed up in her usual Enchantville Road piece with a fairy free run, no crown or king tin.

Arriving so lost was a single fort, on the outskirts of the outer periphery.

It was once the home of Carla Mara's strongest named adventurer party, The Golden Dawn (Golden Dawn).

"--Sort of, like, my mistress, Tina."

"Yes, all thanks to Your Majesty"

It was now former party members in control here, Elves the Slave Woman and Tina who put the visiting Lily straight through to the living space in the back.

It is a truly streamlined method cultivated during the maid's days, Tina who drips her head to Queen Lily.

But her skinny is not already wrapped in maid clothes. What you're wearing is a thin silk dress. Paired with the beauty of an elf-like Tina, the figure is still the princess of an elf, by pure white thin silk and rather a golden ornament worn.

Next to her like that, Zenongart serves like a knight who protects the princess.

"I cannot thank Her Majesty Queen Lily enough for saving our lives."

"It's great to have a proper greeting, Xeno-kun. Hehe, great."

Like a dog lover over degrees, Tina strokes a kneeling Zenongart and rains kisses on its cheeks and forehead.

Though it was not very exposed to the public, Lily looked at the two of them with such gentle eyes as a real smile.

"Apparently, your newlyweds are doing well."

"Yes, every day is already too happy, so scary. Xeno-kun?

"Yes, I'm happy to be with Tina"

Moment after moment, the red light from Xenongarto's eyes dashed brightly with a bickering, and the dialogues spoken contained some solidity.

The boulder is an ambitious man who made himself a Rank 5 adventurer and earnestly aspired to be the Demon King.

Seems like you still have to get quite a bit of output out of the ring to make it behave the way you want. It is a tremendous spiritual power.

"I came to ask you for one thing today."

"Go ahead, if Master Lily asks, I don't know."

"I want you to be my knight."

It is the Knights of Pandemonium.

In any country, it is much smaller and always has a knight, that is, military power.

The possession of mighty military power is the supreme proposition, beyond being a state to confront the Crusaders in the first place. Even if not, in the new state we have just been able to do, we need an army of new institutions.

Unlike the previous Carla Mara, the restructuring of armaments was urgent.

"Pandemonium must be divided into two types of armies due to the nature of governance"

Land and sea, not.

The decisive difference now in humans in this country is --Lily's brainwashed or not,.

"A soldier under my control will be a brave dead soldier full of loyalty to a single soldier. Ideal soldiers."

It is a great benefit of brainwashing domination.

Being able to defy even emotions stemming from people's minds, fears and other instincts, and manipulate them as they please, makes it easy to create soldiers who are not afraid of death.

"But when you become more powerful than Rank 4, you weaken it even if you brainwash it. In the first place, there's a lot of strong spirituality out there that can't be brainwashed."

That was also the downside of brainwashing.

The Flying Strength also transcends the Ordinary in its spiritual strength. It is very difficult to brainwash those with high mental tolerance, and the danger of disarming them always accompanies them.

Zenongart's brainwashing is working well because of extreme fatigue caused by the battle against Lily and the great upset of his heart betrayed by Tina. And after wearing the "Fairy Ring," Tina herself, who is always with her, continues to manipulate Xenongarto's mind.

It's not impossible to brainwash someone as powerful as a Rank 5 adventurer, but its execution takes as much effort and squirrel. Honestly, it doesn't fit the bill at all.

If you try to move them as you wish, the surest way to do so would be to pay the fitness amount in large part.

"That's why I want you to lead an elite force with Zenongart, Carla Mara's most powerful adventurer, as the Knights Commander."

It is an extraction utilizing the name value of The Golden Dawn (Golden Dawn).

Not one guy in this country licks about Zenongart. No matter how much unwanted the lord of the Harlem party is, it's about the second, third rank five adventurers who were rivaling them who can cut to the front and sell the fight to him.

Elite Knights of the New Country, to head it, there was no more qualified than Zenongart.

"... are you going to let Xeno-kun fight"

"The mission is to defend Pandemonium. If you're going to protect your happiness, you know you're going to have to protect your country."

"Right..."

I haven't even explained to Tina the Crusader threat yet.

However, neither did Tina think that Zanadu's fallen Karamara would remain cheap as it was.

There are several other leading desert urban states in this Atlas Desert, starting with Rockwell. And all of them envy Carla Mara, who has the ultimate resource: the Great Labyrinth.

Now that the overwhelming power named Xanadu has fallen, I cannot say enough that he will not move to take the Great Labyrinth.

No, not far away, there will always be some unrest.

"Defense bearer, if only as, you can't refuse."

"Still dissatisfied, huh?

"I don't want Xeno to fight you anymore. I don't want you to do anything dangerous, I want to live peacefully beside me all the time...... right, Xeno, don't you?

"Yes, I'm with Tina... Tina, Gu, but..."

"Tell him you're good with me!

"With Tina, I'd love to."

"Yes, you are, Xeno-kun. You're a good girl."

Apparently Tina is happy to twist Zenongart's will.

The horrible thing about brainwashing is that it changes even the mind of those who manipulate it.

Because you're brainwashing, they're following you... forget even that obvious, they want you to follow them.

Lily saw Tina like that, and if she had won at that time, if she had put everything in the world aside and been alone with Chrono in the future a thousand years away -- fulfilled, the thoughts Lily held were untrained or self-reflecting?

"Tina, Xenongarto's spirit is very strong, but it's also dangerous to push him too far."

"It's okay, because Xeno loves me."

"If you can't even whisper words of love, you'll look pathetic"

Not to be angry, not to be eager, just to pity from the bottom of his heart, Lily said.

The corner, the love that has been recruiting over the years, has been fulfilled. Isn't it too cruel to think that too much brainwashing turned people into abolitionists?

By the way, Zenongart is not an obsolete person right now. We still have enough spirituality to resist, so we get bugged every now and then.

"Besides, loved ones don't keep locked in their homes like pets."

"So, but... Xeno-kun is hot, so I'm worried..."

I know how you feel. Awesome. I get it.

If I throw Chrono out to Carla Mara because of amnesia, it's about the best idol in the country I've ever caught.

"But you see, men shine because they fight"

That's not just a sword and a magical adventure. Whether it's a job, a hobby, or a hard punch into something, it's a moment when people shine.

"He can still fight, and he wants to. The cool thing about Zenon Galt, you should see it."

"Yes...... yes! Well, you're absolutely right, Master Lily."

"Well, you have to support Zenongart as deputy commander."

"Yes, leave this to me"

"If possible, I'd appreciate it if the other members were with me."

"Yeah, no problem. Come in."

Pan, and Tina knocks on one hand, the living room door opens and three maids come into the room.

It's the same made-up outfit Tina once wore.

Wearing it are three women who made themselves party members and were lovers.

"Swordhawk" Island, "Heavy Knight" Senna, "Spiritualist" Wendy.

Their heads are fitted with 'thought dominators (fairy rings)', just like Zenongart, whose free will is held by Tina.

This procedure was not Tina's will, but Lily's request.

In order to capture the valuable Rank 5 Adventurer Party "Golden Dawn" as it is, it is difficult for the three of them to leave. Just in case, I put the collar on, something like that.

Tina expressed a little dissatisfaction with continuing to hold her lovers, but still, it seems that the life she now treats as a maid of honor was not so bad.

"You seem to be getting spoiled."

"Yeah, these three were all Xeno-kun wanted, so I'm being a little harsh"

"Yes, what's the problem with the fight?

"There isn't. Even so, they really love Zeno. If we fight, we'll do everything we can."

"Wonderful, you guys are a good party. I look forward to working with the Knights."

"Yes, we'll take care of the peace of Pandemonium."

Thus, the contract was concluded.

Lily, Tina, and Zenongart's eyes staring at the stiff handshake that the two proud beauties of Reishi exchanged had sparkled like a calf to be sold to the market somewhere.

After finishing lunch on the spot with Tina, Lily headed to her next destination.

East side of Carla Mara Outer Perimeter District, Eastwood District.

This place, which was the territory of the three largest gangs, the Polar Wolf Society, has a slightly quieter impression than last year.

During Xanadu's inheritance race, the mansion with the group leader Andrei Libertas was raided and burned. The executives, including the team leader, died in the house, and there is no information that their son Oren returned from the Great Labyrinth to inherit the trail.

The polar werewolf association, which disappeared without the remaining leading supporters of the organization, was combined with nature and a state of dissolution.

The only reason this place has become quiet is because this neighborhood no longer has a presence of great influence.

But it doesn't make any difference to the lives of the people who live there. Especially children who have no reason to know about public circumstances.

The orphanage House of the Rabbit was still normally open today, with the voices of healthy children echoing from the garden.

"Uh, Leki and Ursula, could it have been"

"... Jesus"

"What do you want?"

One day in the reception room where Chrono was talking to Oren, Lily summoned two girls.

Leki and Ursula.

A child whom Chrono, falling from Galahad, met with Saliel, in the pioneering village.

And he is also one of those who reunited and acted together in this Carla Mara.

"Both of you, you look fine and above all. The kids here seem to miss it a lot, and I guess it's better to take care of the kids here than the adventurers."

To Lily's dialogue, which can also be taken as a painful irony, the two of them had no other means than to push silence.

Leki and Ursula came back here waiting for the children after returning to the ground.

We couldn't finally tell Chrono that we were following him back to Sparta.

The two of us now have comparable strength to the Rank 4 Adventurers... but there is no way Chrono, who has regained his memory, can make it a good idea to take them to war with the Crusaders.

But now that we know how you two feel, it's also hard to say no without it, as it once was. Chrono bothered. I worried, but I can't change the outcome.

Finally, Leki and Ursula, the arrowheads who tried to consolidate their resolve and give the second separation to the two of them, told Carlamara that they would remain.

Tear breakups, even now, are going to overflow with tears if you remember.

Because it's sad, it's not.

I just couldn't help but regret my lack of power. That he could safely be entrusted with his back, that he could fight shoulder to shoulder and, most importantly, that he could not win as much trust as he was asked to come with me to the war of hell.

Next to Chrono, a place we couldn't get to. It is this Lily who reigns there now.

Yes, in loving a man named Chrono, the two of them finally knew that it was Lily, not Sariel, who would be their biggest and strongest lover.

"Away from Chrono, another week or more. Could it have cooled down a little bit of the sex fever?

"To Leki, only Master Krono, Death"

"No matter how far away you are, no matter how long it takes, this will not change your mind."

Lily didn't even say anything if it was just her mouth.

I also know that the strength of the two thoughts is not a light-hearted feeling, just admiring a strong, dependable older man, without trying to be telepathic.

Otherwise, we cannot take as many as ten small children and travel to the end of such a continent.

"Yes, I know how you feel. The fact that you were fooling Chrono, who was losing his memory... I'll flush you down to the water"

I still have feelings of resentment, but if I draw the feelings of Chrono and Sariel, I have to forgive them.

Besides, these two did their best as a maiden in love. Everyone does, even I do.

"I'd rather be grateful. Never said bad Wagamama, never pulled himself away clean."

"Because we can't help Master Chrono yet."

"That's about it, even Leki can tell, Death."

If I had been born three more years early. If I've had experience as an adventurer for about three years now.

If these two talented people had grown physically and mentally, they would have been strong enough to stand shoulder to shoulder with nature and Chrono.

"But you're not willing to give up, are you?

"Naturally, Death!

"Now it's time to catch up and turn around."

"That's a good heart. I'll give you two a chance."

To Lily's offer, Leki openly gave Ursula a faint, but both of them a truly surprising look.

"I still appreciate your strength, your talents, and your feelings for Chrono. I don't mean to be unobstructed."

If Lily now cares about that, she can also keep Leki and Ursula from seeing Chrono forever.

If you want to denigrate the two things from the bottom of your heart by jealousy and hatred, you can put on a ring and brainwash them, then let them marry the right man and build a normal family.

Chrono would honestly congratulate you if you heard that you two had other guys you liked to marry and that you were happy to have kids too. If you don't even realize it's done by brainwashing, it's the ideal future for two.

Yes, unfortunately for Krono, Leki and Ursula remained protected, and as heterosexual as they might not want to give it to anyone else, they weren't seen.

"If you attack the Great Labyrinth, I will take it up with my knight. If you're a Rank 5 Adventurer, your strength is complaining. Even then, if you're still willing to do that, I'll take you to Hell's Battlefield with Chrono."

Lily still needs the strength to be a pawn, as she pulled Xenongarto out to the elite Knights in charge of Pandemonium's defense.

Especially a trusted ally who can fight on the battlefield with Chrono.

Homunculus is excellent. Brainwashed soldiers are also unmatched in loyalty. Hand exercises like Xenongalt are also being gathered --but still, there is not enough power.

Losing Saliel and becoming eleven will not change the Apostolic Threat, and the Crusaders will have a huge number of troops and a high morale by faith, as well as armaments by ancient weapons that have been revived.

It is as if it is not enough to name the total power of a single nation to cut head-on and confront it. The opponent is a super-powerful force that dominates half of the Ark continent.

For Lily, expanding her power is an urgent necessity, and in addition to Homncrus and the Brainwashing Force, she is also a trustworthy companion to her heart.

Leki and Ursula exhaust for Chrono because of love. Chrono will also trust about the two of us who have been having a hard time together.

As for Lily, two kids who realize the color they don't like... but Leki and Ursula have enough value to push that emotion to death.

"No, I'll do it if you don't tell me, Death!

"The only way to convince Master Chrono is to get to Rank 5. Worry about whether or not you will truly keep your promise."

"I'll keep my word, yeah, I swear to Chrono."

The Great Labyrinth has changed slightly, but the difficulty of the dungeon strategy remains unchanged. Lily's unruly neighborhood is vast, and the fifth tier, which she has full control of, is about as capable of repositioning monsters. That Deus statue can also be summoned exclusively in the square in front of the treasure trove.

In addition, the Alliance's activities are being resumed as soon as possible so that adventurers can operate without delay, and the changes in the Great Labyrinth are being widely communicated. Already, the adventurers are back to diving into the Great Labyrinth as usual.

The stage was tidy as Leki and Ursula challenged the Great Labyrinth.

After that, it depends on the strength and effort of the two of us to decide whether we can catch up with Chrono or not.

"And don't worry about this orphanage."

"You'll assist me, Death?

"I have money. I've never been over it."

"Because soon, we will no longer need the orphanage itself from this country"

"... What do you mean, Death?

"There's no wax without orphans."

"I will make a place where orphans and slave children can make you happy together. Because that's what Chrono wants."

To Lily, who smiles, the two of them have forgiven their hearts only a little.

That's because Chrono, Leki and Ursula have always wished. If that's going to happen, how good it is--and if Lily is serious about doing such a dream story, you can say that the boulder is Chrono's prospective woman.

The two of them who thought so were still children... no, I knew too much about a person named Lily.

Fiona would have answered Lily instantly.

"Gathering kids together. Brainwashing education is finally something cult to do."

But no more here, no more Chrono or Fiona. Whoever can stop Lily will not be left alone.

This is Pandemonium. It is the capital of hell, ruled by the fairy queen.

"Well, then, I'm counting on your work."

"I can't believe I'm in Rank Five, Death!

"I'll make you regret giving us a chance cheaply."

It seemed that the two jerks caught fire when the road leading to Chrono was shown. It is a sign that you may jump out now and go for a challenge to the Great Labyrinth.

Even then, I'm not willing to stop as Lily, but before that, there was one thing I had to ask for.

"Will you bring a child named Lillian?"

"Lillian, is that Death?

"Why Lillian?"

"You look like me, don't you? I'm a little interested, that kid."
