"Ah, it's a nightmare...!"

The appearance of Melia-sama as a demon king in full possession.

A farce called Battle for Life, which starts there.

That was supposed to start...

"~ ~"

As you can see, thanks to Kite, things have become much more chaotic.

No way, why are you here and discovering who Melia really is?

Rather, the situation was contiguous and unexpected.

"Fu, fufufu..."

As you can see, Meliá-sama won't be back for a while.

In addition to the long-awaited encounter, she discovered the disguise of the Beast and now struck precisely the words she most wanted.

Even so, it's not impossible.

But I didn't want it to happen now.

Why are you there, Mao?

One room in the basement base.

Mao, who was waiting away from the hall where the operation was set up, is somehow there.

Besides, I don't know what's going on around holding the hem of a girl's clothes with similar hair colors as a subtle kite.

You're a real demon king.

In my opinion, Mary will reveal her identity after this battle.

You said the magic tools on Kite's waist were still incomplete...!

Is that it? Because you haven't painted it yet...?

"... Nbah"

Ah, you just threw your tongue out here...! You're still starving!!

This little girl...! She looks innocent and goes that way...!!

"What is that mask in the first place...."

It was on that mask that Kites couldn't move as we thought they would.

Originally, kite and sailor.

Lifa and Nia.

Chisato and Io.

Except for Rifa and Nia, I was supposed to be forced to fight in a way that I'm not used to.

I was supposed to be, but I was completely confused by that strange mask, and I made a huge mistake with that combination and sent it to each place to fight with the best combination I could think of.

Basically, what's that mask on Kite?

Burning Tiger Sigil.

It belongs to the kingdom of Hendir?

For some reason, the look on Mary's face was like a demon just for a moment... no, let's forget that.

That mask distorted 70% of our operation.

"... Mr. Iris"

"Haah!?"

Suddenly Kate called out her name when she was running away from reality.

It was a complete surprise, so he answered with a strange voice, but he glanced straight at his uncloudy eyes, ignoring it.

Meliá-sama, no, she's not coming back yet...!

"Mr. Iris, we're not stupid enough to get here."

"Yeah, that's right."

Reefa nods at Kite's words.

"Were you an officer of the Demon King Army?"

"Yeah, that's right."

"So... I was in the Demon King Army thinking of revenge for my hometown. But now I'm with Melia."

"Exactly. I knew....."

I know Rifa doesn't understand, but Kite is showing surprisingly good perception.

My father must have asked me about my situation.

"Why did you disappear from before us... did you invite Melia to the Demon King Army, or to return to the Demon King Army... No, in both cases. The proof is she's here now."

"... yeah"

"... you saved us. I still think of you as one of us."

Stop being nice to me...!

I wonder how good it would have been if you'd hit me with a curse...!

Instead, he doesn't know that kind words are the toughest...! He's manipulating my conscience right now and letting Mental attack himself...!

"You're not a bad person. So..."

"Kate-kun, please stop... Stop hunting down England...!"

The strange Nia stopped.

Your palpitations will subside and you will be able to breathe.

Ah, as usual, it's like an incarnation of goodwill...

"Nia, I'm talking about something important right now. I'm going to turn you into a kid."

"I'm not too scared of that threat!? Yes, no, you're well on your way to hunting down England? It's a goodwill attack, Sole."

Thanks to Nia here.

If they had said any more, they would have broken my spirit with just words.

"It's a complete failure."

It seems that Mary has finally recovered.

When she touched her face, she smiled brightly and instantly returned from a woman with grey hair to a girl with silver hair, the usual Melia.

"Yes, it's a complete defeat. As for my plan, you will go beyond peace. Master Kite."

"Where is the real demon king?"

"Fufufu, that's a secret."

Tingling, Mao's shoulders tremble.

For a moment, Sarah, the hero of the Vingle Kingdom, glanced sharply at her eyes, but she looked at Kate's sheath without saying anything.

——— She noticed.

Meliá may have noticed, but she turns her attention to the conversation with Kite without even paying attention to it.

"... when did you take over the Demon King army? At least after you left the ruins, I know you weren't working for the Devil's Army.... you don't have to bother yourself in the first place, do you?"

"Exactly. I was negotiated by the half-elf here, England, and invited to join the Demon King army."

"I knew it, England....."

... I'm sorry, Nia.

Now, while I apologize to her from the bottom of my heart, I try not to show it to the public.

"What about the raid on the St. Real?"

"I'm not involved."

"I believe you. You are not lying. [M]... so, did you take over after that?"

"Yes, recently. That's right... when you visited the Dark Beast. I stood here as a false demon king, capturing the demon king."

Melia-sama talks very, very quietly.

I know I'm not hiding it, but what am I supposed to do now?

Is this the end or do you want to continue?

"Ah, the Demon King Army was created by the god beast of St. Real, right?"

!!!?

And I dropped a hell of a bomb!?

Those kites lost their words in surprise to her with a clear smile.

"I tried to manipulate you from the shadows and nurture you who would show up eventually. That's the Demon King Army."

"... haaah... that guy... no, that's fine. We'll think about it later. I know what you're talking about."

He touched his forehead to suppress the headache and turned to Meria.

"So, what are you gonna do from here?"

"Fu, fufufu"

Gracefully smiling, she stood up from the throne.

More than what she looked like earlier, she had an atmosphere far exceeding that of the Demon King, and the expression of the face other than Kite was stronger.

"I was trying to measure your strength as a demon king. I will gauge how useful your strength and the statuesome elephants that follow you are."

"Can't you just stop?"

"It's necessary. But not as a demon king, but as me, there's no big difference."

Kite holds her waist sheath and puts her hand on the patterned lime.

Meanwhile, the Rifa and the others move into a state of emergency.

My role is over, but...

"Wow!?"

"Mao-chan!?"

I can manipulate the soil at Mao's feet and pull it here.

Just to make sure they don't get in the way of their fight... hey, seriously, don't resist, don't bite!!

"Don't worry, we'll keep it here for a while. Oh, be prepared. Anyway, Kate, the people around me are nothing more than a statue to me."

A pattern of scales rises up in Meria's arm as she walks forward from the throne.

As a result, scales appear even on her cheeks.

"Try not to die."

Fighting the god beast.

A natural disaster with a will that could never happen strips the brave men of their teeth.
