Souen no historia

After dropping off the snow, the saws went into normal business. Suddenly the number of people dropped considerably and I felt lonely, but Soji was on his way because Yoyo had ordered him to come to the office earlier.

Shiny is following me back and forth as usual. Do you like to walk lately, or do you often walk around the house by yourself?

Though it may be a testament to her growing up, Soji smiles bitterly as to whether it is kind of sweet to feel lonely about her growing up.

When he entered the office, Yoyo sat on the chair with a difficult look on his face. For a moment, Soji thought about her working relationship and wondered if there might have been any trouble, but I didn't think there should have been anything so difficult as to make Yoyo look like this.

"Lady, you asked for me."

"Ah, you're here, Saudge. I need to talk to you. Sit on the couch."

Sweet to his words, Saudge sat Shiny next to him and calmed his hips.

Yoyo got up from his chair and approached the sausage, handing him a piece of paper.

"Read it."

I was afraid.

I looked through the contents written, but Sauji looked at her face unexpectedly as did Yoyo. Then move your gaze from paper to yoyo and ask.

"Is this true?

"It's information from Bal. There's no doubt about it."

Soji has also gained a great deal of trust in Balmunk's ability to gather information. In other words, if it is information from him, it is judged that the contents written here are not false.

"But... no way... I did get rid of you.

"... maybe it was a dummy."

"Oh no...."

Here's a summary on the paper.

The extremist demons who were supposed to have crushed him, together with the leader, raised the flag again.

Previously, there had been widespread incidents in which extremist demons activated their movements and were led by their leaders to attack other races. And it was thought that the hand of the devil would reach out to the wealthy, and the hand of the great nobility of man would reach out to Joyo, so the life of Joyo should have crushed the extremists.

But if you look at this information, it means that the demons have decided again. Moreover, it is more likely that the leader Soji defeated was a fake than the new leader.

"I certainly thought I was weak as a leader, but I didn't think I was a shadow warrior....."

The possibility was not taken into consideration, so I did not realize the existence of the Sage and quickly slaughtered the Demon Clan. We couldn't get a Shadow Warrior ready for the Soji assault.

(Besides, I must have wiped out all the demons there. I didn't even see any real signs)

There was a possibility that the real thing was mixed up somewhere, so when I decided to bury everything, I chose to destroy the demon race.

"Perhaps the real Shadow Warrior had already been tailored to lurk somewhere on the continent before Soji left."

"You realize I exist...?

"No, perhaps the leader was afraid... of the snow."

"......! Oh, I see."

That's right. I forgot about the snow. They were summoned to defeat the Demons. And perhaps the demons also had the information.

Maybe that's why they were trying to tailor the Shadow Warriors to measure their strength. But the fact is that it was just ordinary people who defeated Sage.

The Shadow Warrior would have been surprised by the fact. I can't believe the butler showed up instead of the [Spiritual Instrument]. But surely the leader knew of Soji's existence.

"So why haven't you ever moved?

"I wonder if I can make the necessary tokens..."

"I see. The leader must have lost a lot of tokens."

"Besides, I probably needed time to find out about you."

Yoyo is right. Thorge, which is an irregular presence for the leader, must have had to be looked into first.

"I mean, have you moved because you've done a lot of research on me?

"Maybe. However, according to Bal's investigation, it appears that someone may be hiding behind the Devil's back."

"Who is it?

"They didn't even know it was Bal."

Does Balmunk's ability to gather information mean that it has much to hide? The fact that the information is incomplete is that the other party is quite capable of doing it, even though it is a balmunk that most of the time investigates everything.

"What does your daughter think of this information?

"I can't leave you alone. I'm sure they've been looking into you, and even this mansion...."

----------------------- Of course I've been investigating it.

A person who represents his presence on the edge of a suddenly opened window. Soji immediately stands in front of Yoyo and Shiny to ensure their safety.

Then we observe a middle-school student who is sitting on the edge with his feet branded.

It appears to be a shortcut of gray hair, but the long hair that extends to the buttocks at the back is divided into five parts and knitted into three. A small blue horn like a sapphire grows from the forehead on the brown skin.

Red scarf on neck. The waist is shaped like a knife on the left and right. I was thought to be a girl by appearance.

"Saudi Alkasa... I see.

"You're such a demon... right?

They gaze at each other.

(I didn't expect to be attacked here... did he come alone? No, I wouldn't do such a stupid thing...)

What worries me is the people in the Mansion. We cannot protect all those who are out of sight of Soji.

If you are thinking about how to cut through this scene without putting a rush on your face, the opponent laughs invincibly and replies.

"Don't worry. The rest are not demon kings."

"... what?

Time stops unexpectedly, Sage.

What did he just say...? The Devil King? I mean, the Devil King.

Then he stood at the edge of the window, saying, "Yo." Soji sinks lightly into the battle.

"Actually, it depends on what you tell me."

"... a story?

"Yes, you know him. Some of the demons are doing stupid things right now."

"Aren't you the one standing on top of that idiot and leading the way?

"The rest is certainly not the demon king. But not everyone else has sworn allegiance. Because there are three demon kings."

The Northern Continent---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There are three countries there.

One is [Safir Country]. A land inhabited mainly by those called the Blue Horn.

One is [Topajo Country]. A land inhabited mainly by those called the Yellow Eye.

One is the [Country of Luvino]. A land inhabited mainly by those called the 'Red Skin'.

In each of these three countries there are kings that bind the people, and they are called demon kings. Although there are ethnic differences, the most common species defeated by Soji this time were the Red Skin and Blue Horn.

As its name suggests, "The Red Skin Clan" is characterized by red skin, and many people are physically large and temperamental. And "Blue Horn" produces blue horns on the forehead, and many people are optimistic.

The demon race in front of me is definitely the Blue Horn, so I can't move around because of the possibility of a leader.

"So, are you sure you want to explain why you're here just to talk to me?

"Mmm, that's good. So why don't you pull in the noisy killing and the strange objects behind it?"

Behind the girl, outside the window, there is a white flame that has been activated and kept waiting. I was ready to defeat her at any time.

But she is standing in such a dangerous situation and staring at Sage without smiling. The appearance, on the contrary, reassured Saudi.

She is aware of Soji's hostility and is still entering her pocket. I was still here at the risk of being killed, and I thought I'd just listen to a little bit of hostility against the girl. But it is Yoyo who will ultimately judge it.

When Saudi saw Yoyo's face, she nodded again.

"I see. But it's true that you're suspicious, so my magic won't go away. The moment I do something strange, I'll erase you."

"Hmm, you're absolutely right. Yeah, that's good! Then I'll talk to you first, so listen carefully."
