Episode 223 Formation Ceremony

* Kent Perspective

"From now on, we will begin the formation of the First Southern Region Massive Demon Hunting Expedition."

The ceremonial venue, built in the garden in front of the castle in Estfort, brought together representatives of military personnel, demon hunters, civilians, merchants, private soldiers and other participants in this expedition.

"King Kent Blackdagger will give you his word."

He was signaled to come to the stage by Condorato, who is the host. I head to the stage for a small run and hold a loudspeaker (microphone).

"Watch out!! All of you, listen to King Kent!!

By decree of Condorato, the participants had corrected their posture and had an upright immobility. Regardless, I was surprised that even the demon hunts, which were usually supposed to ignore high-pressure instructions, were tattooing postures to listen to my words.

"Uh, it's not a big deal, so you don't have to change that much. Take it easy on me."

I sent my sights to Condorato.

"Permission from the King came out. Rest!!

Horrible air flows to the participants.

"That's fine. What I'd like to ask of you on this expedition is," Never die. "If you're a resident of my country, think about surviving more muddy than dying cool. When you die, it means nothing. Those who join the expedition want this thing firmly engraved in their hearts to encourage them to fight demons. The system for the treatment of injuries and illnesses is well established. If you're hurt at all, you can rest without having to."

Participants scream at my words. The purpose of the expedition was to destroy the demons, but it was true that there was a desire to avoid the dead coming out of it because of the importance attached to it.

"There's no way I'm going to give your precious life to a demon. So I say," Never die, "and I say," Don't die. "

The participants chewed up the meaning of my words and saw many with expressions of determination.

Okay, everybody grab a glass.

Hold a glass of liquor that the participant left on the table. Confirming that the glass had gone to everyone, I lifted the glass to space.

"Wish me no accidents on the expedition, cheers!!

Everyone cheered off a glass of booze at once as if to follow me.

"We'll all be free to talk later. Don't leave food and booze behind because it's a takeaway ok!!

That's all I said, I walked off the stage.

When I get back to my seat, Condorato, the host, approaches me.

"Lord Kent... you busted me depending on the ceremony..."

For once, we had a meeting ahead of time, but these robust ceremonies have been decided to be short, so I let them change on their own.

"I'm sorry. But you always say you don't like being tough."

Garvey slaps and comforts Condorato's shoulder, who's having trouble with my words.

"I didn't think the Admiral could put up with a long and hard ceremony, but this was, ah, a ceremony that was shorter than I expected. When I was in the Royal Army, it took me about half a day. It was a funny, short ceremony."

Garbay was folding his body and cutting off his laughter. Condorato also looks like he gave up.

"Well, it won't be a problem because the speaker has said beforehand that I'm sorry if Lord Kent ended it on his own..."

Condorato on the boulder had also read through my personality and seemed to say no in advance to prospective speakers.

"It might be a good idea for someone to talk to, but if you try it on someone who listens, it's torture. Besides, if the dishes made so hard by the maids of my Black Dagger family get cold, their work will be wasted. You can talk about it while you eat it."

"Well, right..."

Condorato doesn't seem angry though he has a bitter laugh. I hear he's also a man who hates hard ceremonies again, so I guess he's delighted on the inside.

"By the way, what kind of a man was King Yellan who took on Gwayne? I assume you're here to greet Condorato on his inauguration, too? I'm talking about Framil's brother."

I asked Condorato, who had returned from the King's capital, what he was concerned about. Because an additional letter had been delivered by Aldo, stating that the Principality of the Real Demon had signed an alliance with the Real Demon King with the neck of Gwayne as a souvenir.

Yellan, knowing that Flamir had entered my side room, had been diagnosing the signing of an alliance on the grounds of kinship, but Flamir himself said that he did not want his relationship with the Real Devil's Kingdom to be taboo, and the alliance was on hold. Yellan, however, was bragging about signing an alliance with my country to a neighboring country.

It seemed to me that he also won favorable terms by bragging about his alliance with my country to conclude this alliance with the Kingdom.

Moreover, in the Principality of the Real Demon, the status of the Real Demon nobility had declined relative, and even those called elders would have been banished one after the other if they were incapable. Exiled True Demon nobles and elders are relying on Flamir to flow to the southern border berg country, but the group, solidified in True Demon supremacy, had caused trouble in the city several times. Every time, I feel pity because Flamir is apologizing to me for rubbing my forehead on the ground.

"Are you King Yellan... you were Jen without a grasp... he had a soft face, but I got the impression that the contents felt more different. But the one thing I felt was I was tired of working under her."

Condorato's criticism, the only person who had ever met Yellan face to face outside Flamir, did not get the guidelines.

"I hear he's King Rashid's son, but I hear he's been caged in his own room for the last few hundred years, and I guess that means he's quite a stranger... but I think he'd be the cheapest person if he'd banished the pro-Guyne faction in the Principality in a short period of time and put up enough martial arts medals to take that GUYNE..."

We are letting intelligence agents, crooks and others from the Red Star (Crimson Star), an intelligence agency directly affiliated with Burgundy on the southern border, restructured by Miliel, look for King Yellan's side, but it was robustly protected by the "Dream Demon Assassination Group" led by Yuri, a former Dream Demon chief, and had not been able to extract any inside information.

"Either way. Now that you're allied with the kingdom, can I trust you to a certain extent? Worrying about uselessness will upset the other person's feelings."

Condorato says to accept Yellan as an ally, but he can't give it any credit. It was at the very least salvation that did not border the country directly. He and his neighbors wouldn't even think about going south.

"Well, Aldo's gonna take care of him... but you're gonna have trouble getting gotten laid during the southern expedition to name your country,"

"There will remain frists in the city, and there will be arborests in the kingdom, so don't worry..."

As Condorato was right, my father-in-law held military power in the King's capital, and Norkin couldn't be alarmed, but he wasn't supposed to be the man to break his word, so he was supposed to rush me to a crisis in the kingdom. If you think about it that way, it seems easy to repel Yellan even if he destroys his alliance and attacks it.

"Right. Just keep an eye out for Yellan's movements…"

"Well, the southeastern part of your general's march isn't street-maintained, but is the supply okay?

When the story of Yellan broke off, Garbay waved the story of the Southern Conquest. The southeast, where I hunt with the demon hunters, was an undisclosed area where many examples of special demon sightings were reported in the southern region. Since this is a monster hunt that combines my training, I decided to leave the most challenging southeast to the monster hunters of the war.

In addition to the "Silver Wolf", "Hand of Glory", "Golden Apostle" and "Sword of the King" Top Three Hunters, "Black Bullet (Black Barrett)," "Root Grass (Delacine)," "Red Battle Maiden (Red Valkyrie)," "Star Battle Maiden" Astral Valkyria "and nearly fifty other large and small groups have announced their participation.

I was only allowed to participate once I recognized some strength to be a hunter in the southern region. Of course, Red Warfare Maiden (Red Valkyrie) is also a selection team, and only those who are able to fight in the southern region are allowed to participate. Still, the total population is close to a thousand, and plans are being made to gradually expand the hunting range by creating a base camp capable of replenishing and resting treatment.

"If we build a base camp to destroy the area, we're going to continue the hunt in a way that we can move forward. Plus, it seems like the carriage merchants who anticipate trading in demonic materials and selling consumables will be following the camp, so the replenishment should be easier. The carriage dealer asked me to escort him myself."

My mother-in-law gave Hunter Guild priority for rare demonic material that we hunted, and I had permission to sell demonic material locally, and the King's Capital Chamber of Commerce and carriage merchants who heard about it offered to take their own escorts and undertake a general supply of demonic hunters going southeast. Marietta was also about to be overwhelmed with army and black wing supplies, so she decided to take the merchants' offer.

In addition, merchants and demon hunters have decided to sell Blackdagger family sales permits this time around so that they don't fit in with fraud and trouble. If only we had this, the trouble was that our house was going to arbitrate, and it was supposed to be an implicit rule that both sides could not trade without showing it as a proof of credit. The license is sold to the demon hunters for one large silver coin and to the merchants for one gold coin. Demonic materials in the southern region were recommended for purchase by both sides because many of the items traded at high prices would cause a lot of damage if they got into fraud and trouble.

"The merchants are motivated. Anyway, I have a chance to buy rare materials directly without going through the Hunter Guild. You're going to die and follow."

Usually, the Hunter Guild was equipped with an auction room where demonic hunting brought materials to redeem and the Hunter Guild sold them to auctions, and the Hunter Guild was also equipped with magic tools with video connections to various parts of the Devil's continent, where day and night purchases were made.

As a result, the amount of material traded fluctuates, and Feria's hobby, the Demonic Materials Trading Results Board, presents a look like the stock board in my world.

Feria had told me that some merchants had gained enormous wealth by simply buying and selling materials at auctions, but he said that hunting in the south had recently become more active and that the value of materials was increasing and becoming a difficult market.

I let that be a direct purchase without the intermediary of the Hunter Guild this time, and no one could have predicted what impact it would have on the auction market, but I believe that my mother-in-law and the civilian corps will be able to redeem it successfully because they are throwing round the sale of materials hunted by my direct graduate corps and the army.

Anyway, it's about your mother-in-law, so you must sell them in small quantities where the southern expedition has calmed down and the value has stabilized...

"It's bad for the merchants, but this one was full of hands. I'd appreciate your help."

"The Admiral is really nice to people… and you've been well recognized by the Hunter Guild. I can't believe we admitted it until we cut our own revenues... did we make some kind of back-trade?

Garbay was putting his arms together and thinking about it.

"This is General Garvey. I traded the Hunter Guild thing back. So we need the military to hunt demons vigorously."

It was my mother-in-law who showed up from behind Garbay. My mother-in-law wears a viscid civilian uniform for women, hitting Garvey on the shoulder with an outfit that looks like a career woman.

"This, my Lord Chancellor Lyla. Again, was it... is it pretty blown up?

"Yeah, when you distribute a good amount of rare material… I'll ask you to keep this a secret. If it leaks, it won't matter."

My mother-in-law laughs like a prank.

"I don't think I should know. You shouldn't even ask the Admiral. In the meantime, all you have to do is hunt for the burly demon, right?

"Yeah, I'll be expecting you"

My mother-in-law had a laugh with Huhuhuhuhu. Under the female prime minister of the southern border Berkoku boasted, female civilians sensitive to the smell of gold were gathered to form one of the most prestigious bureaucratic groups in the demonic continent. This time, I am also throwing in the personal expenses of the Black Dagger family, but I also feel that if I do poorly, I may return more profits than I have thrown.

I don't have to make a profit... but what can I say, I decided to keep my mouth shut because I think Helga and the three giants are going to eat your sermons for an hour.

The Blackdagger family's profits from this southern expedition were also planned to be spent on expanding the pioneering village, expanding the private scholarship system for outstanding students at Estfort School, where I chair the board, and establishing a private fund for nurse and therapist training at treatment centers.

"Don't expect me to, because Garvey will work vigorously. Wait."

"Admiral!! That's terrible!! You only put pressure on me. Ha!

Garvey shakes my shoulder in a hurry.

"'Cause there are amazing demon hunters around me, huh? It's not possible from my ability to get the results of a hunt that will wake up my eyes."

"I won't let you do that. I'm going to make Kent stronger this time, and my ultimate goal is to be able to hunt solo as much as a Warcraft."

It was Millie who showed up from behind me. Because of the ceremony, she is dressed in black knightly clothing, which is an official outfit.

"Huh!? Seriously!? I can't hunt for the Warcraft solo!! I'm not gonna die!!

"Kent won't let you die. What I protect. But I realized I can't just protect you like I've always done!! I realized that if Kent got stronger, he'd be dead, and there'd be no anxiety. So this hunt is going to be in Sparta. That's when you get back, you might be like someone else."

Millie is laughing at Niyaniya with an evil look on her face. When I saw that smile, a battle ran on my spine.

Yabe eh!! Seriously, I'm willing!! Millie just turned into a livestock!!

"Yes, no. Mr. Milly... you think I need to be ready for my heart too... yeah, I need it. Suddenly Spartan education could shock you to death the worst... ahhh!! Mr. Milly, are you listening to me? Millie, come on!

"Kent, the ceremony is over, so let's get ready. I don't have time to sell oil here."

Millie uses her unexpected powers to drag me. This is how I got thrown into Millie's Spartan training.

* Iska Perspective

We were called to a party hosted by Lord Black Dagger, and we were tongue-in-cheek at a sumptuous meal arranged on the table.

"Rosalinda... this is tear-free and delicious. Let's fold it up and bring it home to everyone."

"You have no bottom to eat Iska… Sir Black Dagger will laugh at you if he sees you. This time, we've been called by members of the South Conquest, so if we don't stand out flashy, we may not be able to get people to call us at night."

Rosalinda was quite on board with this expedition. Originally, Rosalinda's "Root Grass (Delacine)", which lacked financial resources and could not leave a significant hunting result, started gearing up to become Lord Black Dagger's direct graduate group and received various incentives.

Rosalinda's nose is pretty rough because of that background. Because if we hadn't had a remarkable hunting result here, it could have been downgraded from a direct-grade group in the worst case.

"I hate it when Lord Black Dagger stops calling me at night. Because it's gentle, it's good, it's a place to calm down..."

Lord Black Dagger seems to like to call me and Rosalinda to do some naughty things together. I love Rosalinda, too, so I wanted to keep it to myself that you and I were excited and having an affair.

"In the meantime, I'm counting on the power of Iska. I can't do S-rank demons, but I'm sure Lord Black Dagger would be happy to get rid of a few dozen A-ranks.

"Ok. I'll take care of it. Because if you bash me, I will defeat you and prey on you."

For Lord Black Dagger's sake, I could also put up with the predatory behavior that people dislike.

"I won't leave you any prey."

They rang me from behind when I was colluding with Rosalinda. Looking back, there stood a group of people in black leather jackets.

"Iska. I took an unconsciousness before this, but if you're dealing with demons, we're better up there. I'll have you guys pull in the back."

It was Kerstin, the Black Bullet (Black Barrett) hunting captain, who spoke to me.

"You can't do that. We're betting on this hunting expedition, too. You can't lose to the ladies who rely on magic guns."

I thought they sold the fight. Rosalinda was intimidating Kerstin by flying cancer.

"Well, don't be obsessed with arm habits to the extent that you've grown hair on amateurs, except for Iska"

"What? No, you look great if you don't have a gun!

Rosalinda was trying to grab hold of Kerstin's words dramatically.

"I hope you're both well, but have you forgotten it's in front of Lord Kent?

Cracked between them was Juliana, the head of the "Red War Maiden (Red Valkyrie)" hunt, who had recently gained more penetration.

"I hear you'll be joining my hunting team this time. I'm going to let you ram for the first time in a long time. Lydiane is also motivated to fight for the first time in a long time. Forgive me, but I'm not going to let you two have your prey."

Rosalinda and Kerstin are drained of poison by the appearance of an unexpected competitor.

"No, no, no, it's decided that our King's Sword will be the best hunting result for Master Kent."

It was Lakia, a former deputy hunting captain of The Golden Apostle and now the hunting captain of The King's Sword, who rushed over to hear the disturbances.

"It's nothing like" The King's Sword "where Hendrik fell out and his hunting score dropped over" The Silver Wolf ". Besides, Lord Lachia hasn't been called to Kent's bedroom yet, has he?

Kerstin was loathing Lakia. Rakia was turning her face bright red when she was told what she cared most about.

"That's what Master Kent thinks, and Lord Kerstin doesn't pinch his mouth!! If you get the best hunting results on this hunting expedition, you'll be sure to call me by your side!!

Lord Black Dagger uses this talented woman as his hunting captain to make The King's Sword a direct graduate hunting group, but he was not there to summon Lakia, the hunting captain, to his bedroom. There are speculations that I hate Rakia in part because of that, but I thought Sir Black Dagger, the lady lover, couldn't stand it in front of the beauty.

Maybe you're having fun scorching a serious rakia because it's about Sir Black Dagger...

"What do you think? This hunting expedition has earned the best results of the hunting team the right to receive rewards."

Giuliana has made some interesting suggestions. The complexion of each hunting captain who heard her suggestion changed sassy.

"Fine. It sounds funny." Black Bullet "got on that story."

"I'll ride the King's Sword."

"I'm going to ride my rootless grass."

The gathered hunting group under Sir Black Dagger's umbrella had indicated in favor of competing for hunting results together. Then Master Migliaria, who has dragged Sir Black Dagger from the back, appears and declares.

"I'll ride the battle," The Red Bride. "Let me make a face for you as the Black Dagger family's top hunter. Fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh, look forward to it."

"Ah, that Mr. Milly!! I can't hunt that much! I can't! Mr. Millie! Are you listening, Millie? Ah! Help me!

Master Migliaria dragged Sir Black Dagger to the hall, who aroused when he raised an invincible laugh.

Everyone is distracted by the way it looks. Thus, private hunting groups under Sir Black Dagger's flag, including us, competed for hunting results.
