Story of The Ancient Demon King!

Episode 2: Those who appear in the rushed imperial castle

In one of the conference rooms of the royal castle, a deputy representative of the Enze church, who had been called by the kingdom side and one of the Cashews, sat between the tables.

As if the warm sun outside were a lie, there is a pressing air that has conceived cold air.

Archbishop Amanda, sitting in white monastic clothing in front of Alto with an emotionally unreadable expression and a straight face.

Both were the reward for insisting that they would not give up, as expected.

"I mean, Jan and I had nothing to do with ourselves?

"You're right. It's a pity for both of us... His arbitrariness has led to mistrust among His Majesty and Prince Alto."

"It doesn't work."

Alto tells Amanda his troubled face in a cold atmosphere.

"Enzionism was involved in the kidnapping. Celestia, who exposed it, is definitely in the way. It is highly probable that Yang and Kashu were working with the Demon King. After luring Celestia out, the Demon King eliminates Cashew and Yang, who are no longer needed. It makes sense."

……

There was a slight wrinkle between Amanda's eyebrows, who tried to look cool.

For its part, the Kingdom was convinced of its relationship with the [Devil of the Isle] from the fact that it was looking for a brave man, but it did not intend to question it here.

If you weren't the Supreme Bishop of Benedict, you would have said, "I'll take the story home.”

"... I don't know about the kidnapping, but I'm sure we were searching for the brave. However, it is for safety confirmation and protection. In fact, a lot of people are raised in orphanages that we manage."

Cut off the cards of fact that have kept about half of the people who took them alive just in case.

"I can only say that Enzionism works with the Demon King."

"Then it's a cougar, right?

"Phew, I'm in trouble. That's why I won't sit down at all."

The bishop behind Amanda inadvertently relieves the breathtaking pressure of Alto with a distressingly soft tone.

Suspect Jan?

"Perpetrators should be brought to justice by law. It is no exception that he was a member of the Enzionist faith. I'll leave it to your country."

"... Marton"

Alto, who judged it futile, turned a blind eye to Duke Marton Dee.

Marton nodded quietly, so Alto ended the meeting.

"Do solemnly declare the actions of those who were missionaries and lords."

"... what?

Amanda's expression collapses into an unexpectedly strong word.

"Of course. It's full of suspicion. We will also conduct an on-site investigation, so stay there."

If you say so indifferently, it doesn't matter if Amanda gets stunned...

"This is it."

I took Marton and left the room early.

……

There are still guards, but Amanda doesn't mind biting her lips.

Religion is troublesome. Since it serves as a base of mind, there is a rebellion from the people if they show any disturbing movements.

But Alto didn't get lost.

Even if it has been deeply rooted over the years.

Alto may be more troublesome than Celestia to think first of all about the people from the blood of King Wright.

Amanda couldn't help but think so.

♢♢♢

Alto and Marton head down the hallway of the royal castle.

"We haven't heard back from Cujaro yet, but we should keep the soldiers close to the border."

"That's the king. That's fine."

"Would it be better to keep an eye on Enzionism and audit it without waiting for the return of Supreme Bishop Benedict?"

"Nh"

The effects of Celestia's disappearance were immeasurable, and the king, of course, had no time for Alto or Marton to sleep.

"Siegs said they'd help if it came to war."

"Was it true? Ah, with the help of the mighty [Knights Without Flags], I can't get any more comfortable."

The [Black Demon King] and the [Three Sisters of the Bond] and the [Knights Without Flags] promised to cooperate as countermeasures, but it was unexpected that they would cooperate until the war.

A long smile appeared on Marton's face because the Black Knight was out of his league.

"The remaining problem is....."

"Ralman's forces were destroyed. And reconnaissance of the most likely [demon of the swamp]..."

"Are you done with the reception and the noise?

Marton felt the new light of the kingdom, which had to refrain from Celestia as much as possible because of Alto's reliance.

Though the boulder is not as capable of Celestia as it is of the Light King, there is still an instinct in Marton's heart that excites him.

Yes, I've already arranged it.

"Nh"

♢♢♢

"Mr. Alto...."

"Maybe I'm smarter than I expected. Not as much as Marton, but..."

Celestia's room door is knocked so that she can water a serious discussion.

Celestia is under house arrest in her room due to the stubborn decisions of King Wright and Prince Alto.

Visits were minimal, and it was not easy to get out of the room except during training.

"... this sound must be Erica. I don't mind letting you in."

"Yes, sir."

Marie stood up from her desk at Celestia's behest and headed for the door.

As soon as she opened it, an orange side tail girl peeked into her face.

Onee-sama, show me the Relic ~

"Mhh... I'm just looking. Never touch it."

The Light Kingdom, the second 'artifact'.

Summon the black decorative sword and place it on the table.

The other sword was given to Chrono that night and was placed in a specially crafted luxury container just next to Celestia sitting in a bench.

Don't let go of your skin.

Hmm ~

Erica walked up to her disgruntled lips, but her usual sword shook around her waist.

"... Were you absent from school today? Don't you play with Mr. Hakt or Mr. Oswald?

Some of the jealousy that had certainly existed before was that of Magma, and Celestia, who is now fairly weak, is convinced that she is more special to Chrono.

"Play... Does your sister even look like I'm playing in the fields with a boy?... those two are still in special training today. He said he could use the mysterious magic of Hakto back then."

"... is that so?"

Celestia's complexion changes to Erica's words as she gazes at the interesting decorative sword.

Party day, last fight.

I felt that the magic of Hakt at that time was just a bit similar to the Blackwing Man at the ruins.

Strange, diluted to the limit...

So now we're reviewing past materials and legacies to find out why.

And Celestia had already made a hypothesis.

Probably the truth Chrono would have known from the beginning.

"That might be good. [Isle of Isle] forces and Enzionism will be the primary threat. For now, yes."

"What? Black Demon King and Kudjaro?

I was about to give an unprecedented emotional sermon to the untitled Demon King, but I continued to endure it.

"... a small country that is at an incredible stage of leap, even if it is said to be extremely powerful, and is struggling with movement due to the influence of the rebels, etc.... not unlike Enzionism, which has polluted the country and claimed so many victims in its long history, or the [island] that sent it."

There is an immeasurable risk of doing things with cougars and the like while holding these inside.

"... why does [the Devil of the Isle] have anything to do with Enzionism?

……

Not only Celestia, but also Marie were stunned by Erica's words.

"... your father was talking about it the other day."

"Seriously!?

Celestia tells her sister that she wants to breathe out of Erica's loose reaction.

"Father and Shiloh seem convinced to know the truth about the ruins. I don't think the heroes are going to be targeted anymore, but Enzionism and isolated islands may be on the move."

Keep the decorative sword away from Erica and keep putting your mouth on green tea.

"There is a royal Relic in the King's City, so it will not be invaded so far...."

"... it's famous, but is it really there? We've never seen it before.

A treasure of the Light Kingdom said to have strategic power.

It is said that because of the existence of only one "artifact", the Kingdom of Wright has not allowed invasion of other countries until now.

"I'm sure it exists. It's been used a long time ago, but only twice."

"Hmm. But now we have two artifacts, and we can take down the Isle of Lonely Isle.

That's why he starts eating Marie's tea request.

"I don't know...."

While gazing at the decorative sword beside him, he muttered gently.

As far as the legacy is concerned, many of them have incredible powers.

If it's true, but...

At this stage, it seemed dangerous to overtrust the power of the Relic.

……

The decorative sword keeps an eye on it.

……

Celestia remembers Chrono and holds her chest in agony.

"You see, sister? Do you have a fever? Shall I keep that sword?

Looking at Celestia's huge breasts, Erica reached out to the decorative sword, envious of her feelings... and the fact that she seemed so resilient.

"I don't like it. Please stop."

Celestia immediately embraces and protects the decorative sword again.

"If you are also the royal family of the Kingdom of Wright, understand the fact that countless people have been sacrificed by Enzionism."

"Yes, my enemies won't forgive me. I hate the spread of villains..."

Celestia sees the blood of her father and brother in the flames of justice in Erica's eyes.

(... I have to do my part.)

♢♢♢

Under the gates of the royal castle, civilians who were neither gatekeepers nor soldiers nor knights took out desks and chairs and left time to stretch out.

It's almost evening, but this boring time is coming to an end. This time seems to be the toughest.

"... it's hardest not to do anything."

"Why don't you go get a drink after this? I want to swallow and distract myself."

Two civilians are talking as if they were asleep pointing their cheeks at their desks.

"Whoa, can we go too?

"Oh, that's good. The soldiers are probably tired because of the dark atmosphere here, so why don't we all make a scene?"

The soldiers who were guarding the gates nearby also looked tired.

"Ok. If so, we just have to wait for the sun to set now or now."

"Absolutely... Ahhh, what's going on here?"

"--I 'm sorry about the end of the day, but I'd like to ask you something."

A huge black shadow appeared in front of the civilian who chewed him out.

Dark armor that swallows the sunset.

"Ha!?

"Bye, stupid...."

The huge shadow continued to surprise soldiers and civilians who retreated afterwards.

"I heard that you could hear the story here."

"Ku, Black Knight... Dear"

It was the Light Kingdom's greatest hope, despite only showing up a few times... with the Black Knight standing there.
