The Best Assassin, Incarnated into a Different World’s Aristocrat

Opposite the Serpentine Demon Meena.

Up to this point, we just had a jab meeting, and this is where we negotiate.

Make sure the wine served is not mixed with anything weird.

It is easiest not to swallow, but now it is meant to be friendship. You need a pose that trusts you, just the shape.

... doesn't seem poisonous.

Tell Tart and Dia about it by sight, and I'll swallow it first.

Again, Kurtogne's red is good.

Crystals of a culture created by mankind. Maybe it's because of this stuff that Meena got into human culture.

"Phew, I swallowed a lot of human liquor, but this feels the best."

"I agree there"

Taste the wine well.

It is perfectly preserved and has not damaged the vibrant taste of Kurtogne at all.

Where my throat is moistened, when I see Meena's face, I laugh meaningfully, waiting for my words.

Apparently, he wants me to cut the fire.

"Let's just get straight to it. … are you willing to continue your cooperative relationship"

"Oh, what do you mean?

"It's about the Mediterranean dragon. That demon tribe had been making purchases for a long time, and Meena had noticed the move. Nonetheless, it wouldn't be strange to receive that you were no longer willing to cooperate"

I'm not going to let you get away with it.

I came here to get the facts straight, even if it were to crack.

"You didn't tell him on purpose. The truth is, I needed one [fruit of life]. That kid is very strong, but he has serious flaws. I can easily take away [the fruit of life] later. So I didn't want you to get in the way."

"You were going to let him make [the fruit of life] and then take it away from you"

"You're right."

"... doesn't that make sense? If you need [fruit of life], why did you join hands with me? Because of your information, I have been able to defeat the Demon Clan in order to make [the fruit of life]."

Meena tilted the glass of wine to make it between, then opened her mouth.

"To be honest, I underestimated you. I just gave him information, and he won't be stopped. At best, you can pull those depressed guys' legs. But you kept winning. … that child is the only one I can take away [the fruit of life] from, and this is what happened."

"Sounds reasonable."

"But that also fails. I never imagined you'd make it without my information. Besides, I'm surprised you smashed it right in the front. Really strong, more than that great observational eye. This is the first time I've seen a weak man hiding in his armor."

I have also been concerned here.

Rather than that, it's something I've been wondering about for a long time.

"Is this your first time? I mean, that Mediterranean dragon fought every human being. Probably nothing for decades, hundreds of years. That's not just him, all demons are. Are you demons coming back to life?

I have referenced the literature left about the Demon Nation to date.

It's already weird in itself.

Even if there are some differences in every era, they are probably described with regard to the same demonic tribe.

Despite the fact that it says that many demons are being killed and wiped out by the brave men of the past.

Yet why do the same demons show up so many times?

Are the demons of the past and the demons who are here now the same person?

That's what I've always wondered.

"It's back. That's a little different, isn't it? Because we're not going to die."

"You could kill him by smashing his heart."

[Demon Killer] for that. It's a magic trick to kill immortals.

"Indeed, when you get your heart smashed, you can no longer stay in this world. But that's all. I'll come down again when the time comes."

Is something like I was reincarnated happening?

When humans are reincarnated, they wash and bleach their souls back in the post-mortem world. In my case, I hold memories of my previous life by not daring to wash or bleach.

It's no surprise the Demons are doing something similar.

"That's interesting. So, is this what the demons do over and over again? Though it seems that the brave measures are insufficient for this purpose. Every time, despite its failures, it seems to attack with strength every time"

At least not once has humanity been annihilated during the hundreds of years on this nation's record.

Conversely, the Demon Clan and the Demon King continue to lose. Normally, you should think of measures to combat the brave.

"Because of this, I'll give you some information to keep. We've never failed. I've served my purpose properly. For thousands of years. That's why we have this world."

Then it sounds like the opposite.

Demons and demon kings trying to destroy the world and brave men trying to protect the world. We have to doubt that common sense itself.

"You won't tell me if I ask you more, will you?

"Of course it is. We are collaborators. I'm not getting acquainted. This is an apology for not giving the information. I need another consideration."

You want me to find my own answer from here on out?

Watching only the Demons is not the answer. Somewhere I have to make contact with the brave.

"... at least you still want to keep doing business with me"

"Yeah, you're right. Only three demons remain, including me. But the other two are special demons. I don't know what I can do about it, so I want you to do it."

"I trust that word."

"As I said at the beginning, I didn't dare give the information because I wanted [fruit of life]. If so, can't you think of this? If only we could get [the fruit of life], we could go back to our original relationship. … can you give me the [fruit of life] that you have hidden? If you won't do that, I'll make it myself, even with a few forceful hands. I don't feel like I can take it away from those two, so I'm going to have to make it myself."

A snake's eye captures [a bag of crane skin] hanging straight from his hips.

There is no way you can do anything that will make you feel better.

And this serpent demon tribe will surely be able to make [fruit of life] if it cares about it.

She cows the kingdom of Alvan.

Because all you have to do is slaughter the people out of reach, while obstructing and stopping me with the power of politics.

Then there's one hand this one can take.

"If you want to reverse the order, you can swallow that condition. Keep spreading information about the Demons. And when Meena's the last one, I'll give her this one."

If this is the case, the cooperation can be maintained while the runoff of Meena is stopped.

Meena's expression only became sword-soaked for a moment, but soon turned into something that seduced the usual man.

"You're very careful."

"This is a penalty. I broke my promise once. You should be the one to swallow unfavourable conditions."

"But don't you forget that your lives are also on this negotiating bet? This is my nest, and you are wearing out in the battle ahead"

Both are right.

There are hundreds of powerful demons in this mansion.

And I'm fighting a Mediterranean dragon, running out of foul stones and losing a special cannon. Although magic and health are returning thanks to [super recovery], fighting in this situation is extremely poor minutes.

"Then let's hear it here too. What I knew by the time I got here that my life was in danger. You think I'm dumb enough not to take any action? Our lives don't turn into bets. You want to give it a try?

Stare straight into each other's eyes.

We're good at reading each other, psychology.

That's why we have something that makes sense.

"You're my loss. Now let's swallow that condition. From now on, more than ever, I will circulate information about my fellow citizens, and I will support them with the power of politics. If eating humans is uncomfortable, I will refrain from doing so. Instead, when I am the last one, I will have [the fruit of life]"

"Negotiations are in place.... Well, I'm done with my errands, Tart, Dia, let's just say I'm going home"

"Ha, ha"

"Well, I don't want to stay very long."

When I get up, we both get up.

His expression was hard, he seemed nervous about the unusual air.

"... I'll give you two final pieces of advice. For one thing, it is not recommended that humans continue to have [the fruit of life]. It's the devil's bait, so it's not much in the hands of humans. Unlike the brave Bullshit, don't forget that you're just a strong person. Two, what you want to protect is this world, or the country, or your lovely lover? If we don't make up our minds, we'll make the wrong choice. This ritual is also a good place, soon, compelling choice. Rituals are distorted because just humans are at the center. I don't even know what's going to happen."

"Thanks for the advice. Let me refer to it."

"By the way, this is a personal gift for your favorite boy. And I knew we wouldn't love each other? You can lay your body on top of each other without thinking about it."

"No. Unfortunately, Meena's not my hobby"

"Well, terrible. But I don't hate that either."

It is only natural that Meena's advice, [the fruit of life], is in danger.

And I can roughly imagine what you want to say from the information you've gathered so far about why you asked what you wanted to protect at this time.

There's no way I'm gonna get hit there.

I was born with a desire to live as a person, not a tool.

Lug Towaharde lives to be happy with the people he loves. That's just it.
