When I arrived during my metastasis in Ivaris, I just summoned Giron.

Because I wanted to hear more about the situation.

When I return to the office, I ring the bell.

It's a special bell.

It grants magic so that only certain people can hear it.

When I hear that bell, Giron comes in a hurry.

Orc's staff, Giron, will open the door to my office.

"My husband, my husband, it's hard."

And I screamed.

It is the usual dialogue.

But this time, Sephiro, the leader of the 7th Corps, is in distress.

I don't know how that feels either, but Giron also seemed to be sweating more cold today than usual.

Is it that much of a predicament?

My liver gets cold by accident.

Sephiro is certainly currently invading a city called Aresta, northwest of Ivaris. It is a city previously challenged and stunningly unsuccessful by Germoor of the Second Legion.

He said that now that he had dealt a painful blow to the enemy in the Battle of Arsenum, he could manage to drop it, but he didn't think it would fail.

"Is the captain crushing now? Are you okay?"

I ask unexpectedly, but it wasn't Giron who gave the response, it was an unexpected person.

She said her usual cliche in the usual tone.

"- Is it"

And, although her voice color is distinctive, there will only be one person in the world who does such a cliche even if she doesn't.

When I looked back at my voice, I fell on one knee and thanked him.

Satti also gets his head respectfully.

Kyoton, Giron was the only one standing up for it.

Speaking of which, Giron has no knowledge of the Demon King.

It would also be natural to be flashy.

I just didn't think I'd suddenly do such a rude imitation.

Giron said to the Demon King, who suddenly came.

"Here, lady, I don't know how you snuck in, but this isn't a good place for demons like your daughter to come. It is the hall of Lord Ike, Deputy Commander of the 7th Regiment of the Demon King's Army. If you're going to play, you're going to have to play outside."

I'm probably the one who cooled my liver the most when I heard that word.

"Asshole."

I don't even have time to tell you.

Because Giron tried to take the little demon king and kick him out.

I'd be baked pork for sure. I felt sorry for Giron, but not surprisingly.

The demon king said to me without a look on his face.

"You've got some interesting men."

"... this is still rarely useful. Forgive me."

Apologizing on Giron's behalf, I explained it to Giron.

- This is Dilocuten.

Having heard the words, Giron freed the Demon King, but still seemed incredible.

"Oh no, sir, you're not trying to fool me. Speaking of demon kings, I'm the king of demons. There must be more majesty."

"Well, isn't there majesty in Yu?

"No, sir."

Giron says clearly.

"Speaking of demon kings, I heard that they have nine heads, each wearing a crown, six hands and feet, each with terrible calf claws, and three tails, each with poison needles, paralysis needles, and sleep needles. I can't believe you're such a little girl."

Does this guy even sign his own death sentence with his own tongue?

I thought I could no longer shelter, but the Demon King unexpectedly,

"Well, is that what the rest is thought of by those who descend? I know that."

All I did was leak a bitter laugh.

I just can't let Giron go wild any more.

I forcibly transfer Giron.

The place was good anywhere.

I apologized once again to the Demon King when I let him transfer to the farthest point in my magical reach.

"Excuse me, my men are out of control"

"Never mind. Only a limited number of demons know the rest of their faces. Yeah, some of you will be in that attitude. In the first place, when I first met the rest, I was confused."

"... it's all about redness"

I can only say.

I did have a similar feeling about Giron when I first met her.

I never dreamed the Demon King of the Demon King Army would be such a poor girl.

Ma, I didn't throw up a stupid dialogue like Giron.

Thinking of it that way, the Demon King opens his mouth all the more.

"First of all, I commend you for putting together the negotiations with Zenobia as the rest of your name"

With all due respect, I bowed my head, but the information already seemed to be in my ear.

Boulders are demon kings, hell ears.

"I also heard about Uno marrying his wife. At the dawn of marriage, I'll send you something to marry."

... I don't care if they don't want me to know, it seems like I can't even get good information.

Then all you have to do is give us a contract summarizing the details of the trade treaty with Zenobia.

I thought so, but there was something I had to do first than that.

"The jewellery of the treaty with Zenobia will come up for reporting later. Now there's more to be done than that."

"It must be one of Sephiro's things I know."

The Demon King says to control my words.

Apparently, the purpose for which she came to this hall is the same.

She explains.

"Currently, Sephiro is attacking Aresta by citing the total power of the 7th Corps. Bring in a brigade other than Uhno."

"But I never thought that captain would lose"

The Demon King corrects.

"I haven't lost yet. I'm losing, something like that."

"What do you mean?

"We succeeded in Arresta's attack, but that was the trap."

"So the humans are deliberately luring the Demon King's army into the castle and, conversely, besieging the Demon King's army?"

"Exactly."

The Demon King says briefly.

"Human wisdom is pretty good, too. We're going to get Sephiro the Cutter out."

"But taking the city of Aresta, that would mean caged in a fortified city. I'll hold it for a while."

"Uhm."

And she snorts.

"However, the enemy is not dumb either. There would be no food left in the city either. Sephiro will only have enough for the expedition, too. I mean, it's about time we ran out of food."

"... that's unsavory. There is no better example of a hungry army than in ancient times."

"You won't be able to conjure up, no, nor plunder from both humans. If this were a ruse, it would be taking food away from the city's inhabitants."

"... that's cunning. We're the same people."

"But the effect would be surface (tempestuous). Outside the castle are human soldiers filled with bellies. In the castle are hungry inhabitants. If you do poorly, you will be attacked at the same time by both of them. I wonder if the rest of us would do the same thing in our human position."

"When that happens, you barely have time"

"Exactly. I'll have it for another month."

"How many enemies, by the way?

"5000"

"Half of Arsenum Rescue."

"Except Sephiro's soldiers are exhausted on top of being halved. Besides, we don't have an army on our way to the rescue right now."

And the Demon King ran out of words.

"We are currently being simultaneously and repeatedly invaded everywhere. Only a brigade of soldiers can move."

"So you're dealing with 5,000 soldiers in my brigade 600?"

"It will."

The Demon King will be silent after saying.

"- but I'm not a ghost after all. Let's make a choice."

"Choice, is it?

"That's right. There are two paths. Keep going to Sephiro's rescue and crush the balls with him. The other way is to abandon Sephiro and then you become the leader of the 7th Corps"

…………

I accidentally lose my words.

"... that's a very devilish way of thinking"

"The rest are demon kings."

And I laughed, but the expression looked like Nobu.

"However, the trouble with getting me wrong is not abandoning or trumpeting Cephiro for the rest. Just give up. On top of this, I'm going to let you die until you're not on your way to rescue. It will be an immeasurable loss for the Demon King's Army."

"That's very troubling..." the Demon King said for the first time looking like a girl.

I thought this guy could make a face like this, but I didn't have to ask her to show me the way, and my actions were set.

"Sephiro is a witch mountain play (joke) boss, but he's still like my sister. You can't just abandon her."

"... then we'll take the first path, right?

The Demon King asked as if to confirm, but I nodded silently.

"There must be no more defensemen left in this city. So the number of soldiers you can prepare is less than 500? You mean you challenge ten times as many enemies with that soldier?

"Mourning doesn't mean more soldiers. … so it's not good to mourn"

Certainly the Demon King was right.

The number of soldiers the Immortal Brigade can move is 500. Even though the elite who equipped 100 of them with artillery, it was too dangerous to hit ten times as many enemies.

No, it was too stupid.

Not to mention this time we have to challenge the enemy to the field, not the cage fight.

Honestly, it's foolish to challenge ten times as many enemies from the front.

No blurry general would imitate such recklessness.

But still, I didn't feel like abandoning Sephiro.

That's what I said again.

"I'll do something with 500 soldiers."

and -.

There was just someone who denied it.

An unexpected person intrudes into conversation.

If you look, Satti brought Gunter, king of Dwarves.

Satie apologizes to me.

"Excuse me. Lord Gunter asked me..."

and Satti apologizes to her lifeless head.

Gunter says.

"This girl is not bad. I was forced to ask. Forgive me."

I leak, "Oh, boy."

Because the sight comes to mind at that time.

A girl named Satti is bad at lying, and she's not good at hiding things.

I didn't stop talking, so it wasn't weird when this happened.

"Apparently you can finally repay me, Lord Ike."

"If you thank me, I'll have it back, in the form of a gun."

"I'm not the one making guns. Dwarf artisans."

Gunter says so, shaking up the battle axe he had in his right hand and cutting the sky.

Bu 'an!

It was fast enough to see a tear in the air.

It was also a tremendous force (better) to hold such a big battle axe with one hand.

Dwarf was also known as a skilled artisan, but also a powerful miner.

Many Dwarves would be first-rate warriors if they turned the usual sword into an axe.

"There are not only artisans in this city, but also Dwarf warriors. That number is roughly 100, and if they join the battle, it will help Lord Ike."

"Are you sure? It's a battle that has nothing to do with the Dwarves."

"No."

and Gunter shakes his head.

"If the Demon King's Army unifies this world, will it create a Dwarf country?

Gunter stares at this one with sincere eyes.

I stare at the Demon King.

She nodded silently.

"I'll hang the matter in my name, I promise. But as I'm sure you know, the Demon King's Army is currently struggling. Or maybe you can't keep that promise."

"That's when it is. That would mean I didn't have eyes to see. Let's give up."

But the king of Dwarves continues.

"It was Lord Ike who gave the Dwarves a place where they could not find their place, wandering all over the place. At least I have to return the favor. Dwarves are a race that will never forget the benefits they once received."

That being said, he offered me a reinforcement case on top of the others.

I thought this would follow me on my own, and I asked Gunter to shake my hand.

"Thank you for your help."

"It's a pleasure to work for you."

And I've shaken my hand back forcefully.
