The Executed Sage Reincarnates as a Lich and Begins a War of Aggression
Lesson 6: Sage Welcomes New Subordination
"An earlier demon king...... plus he said he was the Four Heavens King!? What the hell is going on here?"
Grom reveals his surprise.
He was born only recently.
He has mastered knowledge and technology from the dead who became a vegetarian, but he doesn't know any detailed information.
"We'll talk about the details later. Greetings are our priority now."
Having cut the subject early, I jumped off the outer wall.
Wind magic slows down the fall speed and descends in front of the former Sacubus of the Four Heavens.
"What can I do for my dominion?"
"Um, you're the new Demon King Sama?
Sacubas asks, tilting his little neck.
A tone somewhat diminished by the sense of urgency.
And it was a nostalgic voice.
Put aside the memory of the resurrected past, and I respond to her questions.
"So far, the Demon King has called himself."
"Heh, yeah. I see, I see..."
Sacubas observes me barely.
He seemed somewhat delightful and looked at it like he was going to make a rule.
"- Little girl. More than that, try to be disrespectful. I will immediately slash your neck off."
Grom down on the ground tells in a chilling tone.
It's not like the usual him.
It had the same vibe as when we first met.
My attitude towards anything but me doesn't seem particularly softened.
The blackmailed sacubus holds his own shoulder and lets it tremble.
"No, don't be scared."
Big and deliberate.
It's obviously an act.
He is a brilliant recipient of Grom's killing spirit.
She's a joke, but she gets a real face.
As he walked over to me, he approached his face, roughly.
Apparently, he's smelling it.
After a while she looked up, she raised her voice with joy.
"I know something. If you think it's magic, it's not you, Dwight the Wise. Say it! Hey, you're right, right?
"This little girl is turning her mouth to the Demon King... ugh!
"Grom, no"
I hand control the grom I tried to step forward.
Grom weakened the orbital flame.
I am discouraged by being scolded.
"Demon King......"
"Leave it to me."
Tell the sad grom that I confront Sacubas.
Black garment that wraps around your body for a beautiful look.
Every inch of its standing, gaze, and motion was calculated to stir up the opponent.
I know many of her poisoned fangs.
Regardless, I will not be fascinated at this time.
"Long time no see, Luciana"
"Right. Ever since your precious brave man blew your half off. It was over a decade ago."
Former Four Heavens King Sacubas - Luciana narrows her eyes in nostalgia.
At that time, the long peach hair swayed.
In the wake of the moonlight, the hair is subtly changing color.
"Dwight, you've changed a lot. Is that how old you are?
"You would have guessed. The power of the Valley of the Dead."
"Oh, I knew it? I thought so."
Luciana grins deeper.
There were signs of Grom being in a bad mood back there.
When I glance silently, Grom turns back to me and stretches his spine.
"By the way, I'm tired of standing up, and if possible, why don't you let me in? I want to give these kids a break."
"Okay. Let me show you around."
When I nod, Grom speaks modestly of his opinion.
"Demon King, do you mind?
"No problem. If anything - I'll do my best to deal with it."
Declaring between, I radiated flames from my whole body.
It is so pitch-black that it floats even in the dark at night.
Gaze at Luciana and the others in that state.
The demons were outspoken.
Luciana, who received it nearby, also leaks a dry laugh.
"Oh, haha... you've really changed, you. I find it more appealing than when I was a human."
"I don't care about that. Follow me. Welcome as a visitor"
I turned my heels back and entered the king's city.
The demons follow you around the rear.
"Isn't this city a little overzealous? The more the demon affects you, the better."
On the road, Luciana joins the line in a frightened tone.
It's clearing the passageway.
I'm subtly holding back the burden on my men.
Indeed, the current King's Capital is an environment that does not envisage a stay of organisms.
Until now, there was no obstacle because only the undead existed.
Though more suitable than humans, this concentration is harsher for living demons.
Upon arrival at the castle, I invite Luciana.
"You're the only one coming before this. Others use the building as they please."
"Well it will, won't it? Got it."
Luciana once again exercised junctional magic.
She wraps up a group of less damaged buildings that were nearby and covers them with boundaries.
This created a faint space and secured a safe zone to keep his men on standby.
Me, Grom and Luciana three head inside the castle.
As a place for conversation, I chose a reception room that would never be used now.
The interior is well maintained.
I guess Grom is eager to clean it.
We sit on the couch opposite each other and start a conversation across the low table.
"Again, what brings you here?"
"Don't be so awesome. You're with Atashi and Dwight, aren't you?
"No way, the Demon King, with this little girl...... ugh!?
Grom trembles in amazement.
The flame swings in the orbit are strangely intense.
It seemed such a shocking word to him.
"Grom, calm down. I know Luciana, but we're not deep friends. We were enemies."
A warrior's squire and four kings of the Demon King's army.
Inevitably destined to kill each other, he fought many times to the death.
Ultimately, we did not settle, and while she was carrying out the obstruction of the human army, we crusaded the Demon King.
It was "enemy to enemy." Hey... do you think that past forms are different now?
Luciana with a mean face.
I will not hesitate to take the lead.
"The demon king you serve is dead. Ten years have passed since then. There's no reason for us to argue."
"That's a broken idea. There must be a chance that Atashi will come to Sama's enemies."
"Then it's until you smash it and make it undead. Let me make the most of your corpses."
I declare with intimidation.
That's not a threat.
Until you do it if you have to.
It was something that could be accomplished with just a little effort.
"... eh"
Sweat falls down Luciana's breathtaking cheeks.
When she exhaled and calmed down, she slowly brought it to the couch.
"... just kidding. They just want to be under the new Demon King Sama."
"What do you mean?"
When I ask, Luciana starts talking about the situation.
Apparently, after the death of the Demon King, the remnants of the Demon King's army were ravaged by humans.
He said the Demon King, who also reigns at the apex in an attempt to fight, was absent and could not fight back effectively.
In time, the leadership of the remainder of the party will be disrupted, as will the claims within the organization.
Eventually they split into several factions, each of which was to follow a different path.
At the time, Luciana, who held the status of Four Heavens King, took those who supported her to the border.
They were called "moderates" within the remnants of the party.
Such moderates decided to live in detail out of human sight.
Believing that one day a new demon king will appear, they have survived a decade of predicament.
"I was going to take over if the misplaced object was going to become the Demon King, but I don't think I should worry about it. Because you're stronger than Sama, the previous demon king."
Luciana praises me honestly.
Word ends also included a slight twitch.
My strength seemed to be somewhat beyond her expectations.
"Still, I can't believe you're going to be the new Demon King, Dwight. I know you and the brave men were executed, but what really happened?
Luciana rides herself out and asks.
I was intrigued.
It wasn't anything I wanted to keep secret, and she let me know what was going on with her.
It's not like I'm paying you back, but you can explain.
Having so decided, I spoke of the flow from the post-Demon King crusade to the present day.
The content is not that complicated.
It didn't take that long to finish talking.
"So the humans who despised the Demon King killing hero were destroyed as a result of the creation of a new Demon King! Humans are unsaveable fools."
Luciana laughs off the couch.
They were delighted with the content of the story.
I don't feel like laughing, but I think I touched the harp line in her heart.
Meanwhile, I disagree with her sentiments.
"Sure man is foolish, but there is salvation. I'm going to give them a permanent peace."
"Discipline. I don't know if I'm going to destroy it completely."
"I do my best for peace in the world. That's life long policy, that's that guy's grief."
The road to peace has just changed.
The fundamental thoughts are unshakable.
I am executing without hesitation because I thought the current way was best.
Luciana, who corrected her posture, gave her a gentle smile.
"Well, I see what you're up to and what you're up to. So, what do we do?
A gaze to explore sincerity.
She keeps talking without waiting for my reaction.
"Atashi and the others seek a land of peace. I can provide technology and power instead. You seek good men. We can offer the entire Wang Capital as a reward."
Are you saying that our interests are in agreement?
"Exactly! Though I suppose we're on terms that don't undermine each other?
Luciana says with a cool face.
That was the look on my face that I was sure this one would ride.
That's when Grom hears me.
"Demon King, I need to talk to you for a minute"
"What?"
"Please come this way"
I am taken to the edge of the room by Grom.
So he created a wall of soundproofing with sorcery.
Work hard to keep your voice from reaching Luciana.
"Do you believe in that sacubus?
"It's certain Luciana is good. Unalarmed personality, but you just have to monitor it there."
We need surveillance, regardless of the sincerity of the other side.
I protected them. I can't even look them in the eye if they start destroying mankind.
If only we had been careful there, it wasn't a bad story out there.
It doesn't matter to me, like what happened once.
Consider only the current value in use.
"The army of demons she leads is fascinating. Even though it's only five hundred, it's huge to be added to the distribution. It becomes a relationship that we use each other. That's all."
"If that's what the Demon King says, I (I) have no objection..."
Grom who says so seems somewhat heartbroken.
I know he's taking my future seriously.
I'm sorry to make it too unobstructed.
I put my hand on Grom's shoulder.
"When I have to, I can count on your help."
"... haha! Powder yourself and do your best for this Glom, Demon King!
Grom regained his energy in an instant.
The orbital flame will likely burn the ceiling.
This will be fine for a while.
I went back to the couch.
"You kept me waiting. I got the story together."
"So, what do we do?"
"I will accept you. Promise a place of peace and ask them to join in the war against humanity as a price"
Having heard the answer, Luciana giggles and offers her hand.
"No problem. That's what I did ten years ago. Now you have no hesitation."
"All right. Negotiations are in place."
Holding Luciana's hand, she jumped happily.
"Yay! Nice to meet you, Sama the Demon King?
She then approached me, wrapping her arms around my neck.
I'll keep pushing my body.
"... what imitation?"
"Atashi, I like strong men. I followed Sama the previous demon king because I fell in love with that overwhelming power. So now... that's what I'm talking about. Hey, you know what I'm trying to say?
Luciana tells the boss.
Emotionally moistened eyes.
Plump red lips looming.
(Same old)
I produce magic in my hands.
I won't kill you, but I'll have trouble getting these things done in the future.
Honestly, it's just annoying.
You should probably give me as much advice first.
That's how I tried to exercise my magic. That's when the hands of eight bones grabbed Luciana's body.
Bone hands force her to peel away from me.
Whatever it was, it was Grom's work.
"Sacubas style is more of a coloring trick to the Demon King...... duh! You can't, don't be fooled! This guy is a bad girl."
"Oh, you don't listen well. Looks like you're out of standard too, but not far enough for Sama the Demon King. I'm sorry. Atashi, I'm only the most interested."
Return as Luciana has won.
The relaxed mouthfeel included a lesser amount of provocation.
"- Watch your mouth, you despicable succubus. You touched my scales. Make that prized beauty invisible again."
Grom gets fierce.
Back to the way it was supposed to be, I stopped hiding the killing.
"Call me. I'll deal with you specially."
Luciana against me is also in a combat position for some reason.
She has a belligerent side, as she puts her strength on the criteria for choosing the opposite sex.
The hoop named repression, which had been extended and pressed, came off, and the recoil may have come.
"Huhahahahahaha! Let me dust you with my magic......!
"Try it! I'm gonna knock you down so badly."
Finally, the two of them began a sorcery shootout.
Response intervals are destroyed in the aftermath.
Watching it, I laid my hands on the entrance and exit doors.
I can't help it either way.
This is a situation where even this body is going to get tired.
Because we made a deal and became buddies, two wise people shouldn't really kill each other.
Let it go until you're satisfied.
(… go tell Luciana's subordinates the upside of things)
I followed the battle that began in the rear.
