Between Tales "Meanwhile Around That Time"

"Zagan the Demon King is dead"

Gaelic, the demon who grabbed this information, turned his head white.

He is a demon king, even though he is sealed.

It can't be so easily destroyed that it can be sealed or something.

But Zagan, the Demon King, will never be resurrected, and I can't get in touch with Rupert or Sendrick, who headed for the seal.

Kai tells us we should assume the worst.

"Is that Marius...?

There is no one else who can destroy the Demon King.

As far as the Demon Show Festival goes, I can't do it with guys like Barra and Hemrut.

Weren't we overlooking the existence of a monster?

I wonder what I can do with this information.

(Do you want to go... No, that's dangerous)

If Gaelic is human, he will ambush Marius in the seal.

Because a demon man is coming who plans to resurrect the Demon King.

Gaelic doesn't have the confidence to defeat Marius.

Report to Rubens for judgment.

I'll get in touch with you as soon as I decide to.

Gaelic's skill "Transform" is a very handy way to use all the magic and skills that a transformed opponent can use.

You can use a "telepath" that allows you to have an ideological conversation with your opponent when you are what you are.

Lady Rubens, it's Gaelic.

< Gaelic? What's up?

Gaelic makes a report, reassured by a calm but existential voice that echoes in the brain.

< Right. Come once, the place is... >

Rubens was calm without panic or noise.

Whatever the inside, I think that's the leader of the Demon Organization.

When Gaelic went to the designated location, there was Rubens and another, Blackaur.

Blackaur is wrapped in light and mutates into a human form.

Once Gaelic also passed, it was a moment of demonization.

"It's just in time. My new companion, Rahm."

"Rahm! Nice to meet you! Senior!"

Gaelic felt he was a bright, loud guy in vain.

"Quick, but it's Rahm. I want you to make sure that the information Gaelic brought you is true and false. Find out from the sky what happened to Zagan's seal."

"I'll take care of it! This lame! Gorgeous! Steady! Brilliant! I'll check it out.

Rahm went back to monster form and winged.

"... you don't have to use anything like that"

Rubens sighed back at Gaelic's words, which were heavily mixed with the flaking ingredients.

"I don't have a choice. It's an emergency. Zamuel is finished, and Zophi, Rupert, and Sendrick are back. We can't compromise our current power any more."

In other words, the ram was chosen to be a throwaway pawn.

I think Gerrick understands Rubens' concern.

Up to twelve people were there, down to eight.

Simply looking at the numbers is a third loss.

Not all of them are junior demons, so it's not that much of a blow on the battlefield, but Gaelic thinks it's natural to still feel like a crisis.

Most of all, Rubens is the only other problem that seems to be at stake.

"I also taught him“ telepathy. "I'll be able to get in touch with you as long as I don't step on the extra dodge."

I couldn't feel anything in Rubens' words about his expectations of Rahm.

I guess the idea is that we just have to be able to confirm whether the report of the annihilation of the Demon King is true or not.

Gaelic didn't think it was ruthless.

It is hard to believe that we could conveniently discover those who become demons at this time.

It's more likely that Rubens helped to demonize him.

If you change the way you look at it, you can't be a demon without the help of a demon.

It's not a shame to lose such a presence.

Because every prospect demonizes himself.

Gaelic also became a demon using a number of adventurers and monsters as food.

"Dear Zagan, if it's true, what would you do?"

"Don't panic."

Rubens tried to calm Gaelic, who deviated with his eyes and voice.

"It's out of our hands if it's true. I mean, we have to change policy."

Rubens was calm everywhere.

Gaelic is impressed by the fact that the Demon King, a far heavenly being, dies, even though he is an ancient demon of ginseng.

Rubens said as if he saw through such a gaelic psyche.

"I am a demon who lives more than a thousand years. I've seen the demon king perish."

Is it the ancient ginseng amazing?

Gaelic thought about it and trusted Rubens.

Rubens sighed deeply after Gaelic returned to his place of business.

I'm not really that calm.

His excellence was in terms of the means of making him seem calm and calming his surroundings.

I just got confused in my head and didn't have to panic to get time to draw conclusions.

Being able to destroy the Demon King Zagan is a great threat.

It is a well-known fact that all demon kings are weakened when sealed for many years, but that is why it is difficult to destroy them completely.

Otherwise mankind will wait until it weakens before attempting to destroy it.

There have been no such examples in the past, because there is a strength of bravery to destroy the Demon King, and it takes century-long years for the Demon King to weaken.

Hundreds of years after sealing it, there's not necessarily someone powerful enough to destroy the Demon King.

Humans don't realize it, but occasionally demons attack humanity for the reason that those with high potential tap before they gain strength.

Most of the demons under Rubens won't know either.

Rubens was running his own way of doing things that the humans would do to fool their enemies first and foremost.

In other continents as well, the ancient Ginseng demon probably does the same thing.

Rubens thinks it's the real reason why monsters aren't driven away, even though many brave men and heroes have been born in the past to seal the mighty Demon King.

Because they have a small number of individuals, the limit comes when they defeat several Demon Kings and their devotees.

If they only existed the number of demons, the monsters would have been destroyed by now.

Then there is a bitter precedent for not launching more massive attacks.

Once upon a time, a monster named Melinda Guilford was born when a massive attack drove mankind to the brink of annihilation.

She destroyed many demon kings, sealed Aulanis, the strongest demon king, and created a tool called magic, a discipline or magic item.

"Such a monster, never to be born again..."

It is the final word of the oldest Centrifugal who adored Rubens.

There were numerous demon kings and demons headed by Aulanis, but only one came back.

Don't repeat that, I think, but there are many problems.

You can't maintain what humans call "charisma" if you show a strong attitude.

Many of the demons are killing their compatriots by humans, with strong grudges.

Dragon, I said Griffon. Except for the high-ranking monsters.

I had to take that area into account.

(It's Marius if you say you care. Why did you show up at this time of year?

It is true that we are twitching and shredding the power of the human state, but it is only for the moment that visible results will be achieved.

It appeared abruptly without any foretaste, and it also became unclear about the past.

I have to assume that someone intervened.

Rubens thought he wanted to find out who he was and what his purpose was.

Maybe we can get rid of the Melinda-class monsters without fighting them.
