"Even if only we vampires hit Lampard from the front, it's Sekiyama that gets crushed by the difference in numbers.

If you make a mistake once, the battle against the Knights of the Holy Order will shake, and the Demon King, the Demon Queen, and many demons will lose their lives.

We must carefully and surely rescue the Demon King.There is no one but the Demon King who can lead us all. "

"Do you want to say that there is a way to restore the Demon King to normal, outside the demonic world?"

"Yes, definitely."

"How?"

"I don't know."

"Don't you see? Why?"

"There's only one person who knows how to do it.ARTEN - Only Arabol-sama. "

"Arabol....."

"Yes, Luge, who made the Magic Rose - the descendant of Arabol, who was called a magic genius.

She can make magic tools to bring the Demon King and Queen back to normal. "

Definitely about Grandma Arten.

Heinelinde would have been in a pretty high position to call it "sassho."

"Are you sure?"

"If you don't ask me, I don't know if I can make it, but if it's in Arten-Arabor's hands, there's nothing I can't make."

Heinelinde's story is consistent with that of Grandma Arten.Queen of the Witches pendant from Granny Arten.That really invalidates the mental interference magic hanging on the Demon King and the Demon Queen, and I have exactly what Heinelinde is looking for.

"I mean, I'm looking for a guy named Arten-Arabol.But if he's such a great guy, I think he's in the demonic world? "

"No. After the demonic world changed, Arten-Arabor left the demonic world.I can say that with certainty. "

Do you know when Grandma Arten left the magical world... it seems she knows something that leads to certainty.

"Arten-Arabor was close to the demon queen, so he must have heard something.

That's why I want to find Arten-Arabor and save the Devil King and the Queen.Me and Pilte came out of the magical world for that. "

"But Arten-Arabor is a genius in magic equipment making.It's a trick to hide... "

"Yes, I wasn't expecting you to look for it normally, but I can't believe I can't grab anything so far...

That's why I relied on the memory of blood. "

"But why is it that reliance on blood memories leads to victims?"

"Arten - Nevertheless, without anyone's help, the world will not be sweet enough to suddenly go out and spend time outside the demonic world.I mean, there's got to be an ally somewhere.

And while I know about Arten-Arabor, I need someone to help me.

And if you know the circumstances, it must be the Devil Clan. "

"But are the demons in the demonic world?"

"Not all demons are in the demonic world.

I just didn't realize that there was a demon clan outside the magical world. "

Really?!

"That said, I'm not a pure demon."

"Pure...?"

"It's the same as a vampire hybrid.

Once upon a time, after creating the Magic Realm, there were almost no Demons who came out of the Realm, but before that, the Demons who came out did not return to the Realm.

At that time, it was still a pure demon race, but as I made a child with another race, and the child again..., the blood of the demon tribe became fairly thin.

Now, even he doesn't know that he inherits the blood of the Demons.

But blood memories don't fade, unlike human memories. "

"In other words, you were reading memories from those who inherited the blood of the demons."

"Yes. I attacked all the people who inherited the blood of the Devil."

"How do you know that?I don't even know him. "

"The smell of blood.

Not all demons, but the blood of the species that connects to most demons smells different from the blood of other species.It's also highly magical, so you can see it from afar. "

"Is that so..."

Indeed, the day before Sanamari was attacked, she fell and bled.I wonder if I could feel that smell somewhere...

"Until you smell it, you're going to dive into the city, track it down, drink blood, trace your memories, explore your relationship with Arten-Arabol..."

"Yes, that's how we got here… but we're stuck here."

"So you've been staying here forever."

"Yes. Some of them knew that they were demons and would help, but in rare cases."

"Normally they attack and take blood."

"It's a tricky way to put it, but... you're right.I'm sorry.But the end of our demons is at stake.I can't choose the means. "

……………………

"I understand the general situation.But when I hear that, I still can't make a decision. "

I think it is consistent with Grandma Arten's testimony and is credible.But when it comes to that, if it's forgiven, there's no such thing.

"I can't wait to pop into the guild all of a sudden... but I'm sure all the victims need an explanation and an apology.You don't have to talk about everything and get involved, but you have a responsibility to make sure you feel safe. "

"Can you forgive me?!"

"It's not up to me to decide.These are the victims we're going to see.I will do so when I am told not to be forgiven and want to be punished.Be prepared.

And, if I may, I need an explanation from the Alliance.This is a request, and it is true that an incident has occurred.The Alliance already knows that.There was nothing, so I'm not convinced. "

Speaking of what Nil and I mean, there's no way we can forgive it for whatever reason.There's no way I can forgive Leah and Sanamari for what they're doing.

But if Heinelinde's story is true, he will be fighting Lampard on the same side.Moreover, it is a vampire tribe trusted by the Demon King, and it seems to be familiar with the internal situation.With their help, we may be able to get rid of the demonic world's problems quickly.

And one more thing.

As usual, event notifications always arrived in situations like this, but not this time.Perhaps this is part of the story of the event Castle of the Demon King.

"I dare to return to the nearest victim.Are you ready? "

"... yeah, I'll tell you everything."

Well then, let's go.

Is this really good... as Leah and Sanamari headed to the house they were waiting for, the idea kept spinning around in their heads.

Heinelinde and the others didn't want to hurt the victim.Only one of them made me choose this option.

If you really think Heinelinde didn't apologize to the victim, maybe we can discuss it between ourselves and get there...

I know it's a shallow idea.It is also well conceivable that the victim will meet the perpetrator and deepen the wound.Leaving it to the Alliance may lead us all to a satisfactory conclusion.No, definitely not.

Speaking to the Grand Alliance of the Holy Knights, we may be able to carry things better.

Thinking about the demons, it is possible to ask Heinelinde and the others for their cooperation, but they will be judged publicly.

But I don't think that's fair...

After all, we arrived at Leah's house without knowing whether our decision was right or not.

"Wait here for a moment."

Tell Heinelinde and Pilte to go inside alone.

"Dear Kaidoo, how was your day?"

As you asked, Hulina is looking at Leah and Sanamari and will welcome me.

"What is it? What happened to Nil?"

"He's outside watching the killer now."

"Murderer?! Ah!"

Hulina shouted and hurried to shut her mouth with her own hands.

"Is the killer coming?!"

The volume fell, but the surprise remained.

"There's a lot going on... Worst of all, I think I should just let Leah see me."

"Are you insane?! If you do that now, you'll break the spirit of Leah and Sanamari!"

"Listening to the killer, I gave him an answer.Nil agrees with me. "

"... if you two are going to be together... there's something going on... okay.However, Nil and I will also be present.Sanamari will not be present.Are you sure? "

"Oh, I'm sure Hulina knows the situation between Leah and Sanamari best, and I'm not complaining."

As Hulina suggested, I decided to discuss it with Nil, Hulina, Heinelinde, Pilte, and Leah.

………………

While Nil brought Heinelinde and the others, Leah did not cry or scream, but sat still stretching her spine and staring at a point.

The person who did terrible things to his cute little girl now appears in front of him.I've never had a kid before, I guess I can't imagine.

"I want you to tell him everything, and bring him here right away."

Leah tells me that with an open mind.

Then Heinelinde and Pilte enter the living room.

………………

I can't say anything from Heinelinde and Pilte, and I will receive Leah's sharp gaze.

"Sit down, dare you."

In Leah's words, they sat face to face.

"First of all, I'm glad the killer wasn't a man.You don't have to worry about having a baby. "

Pilte's body responds to words that are too straight.

"Well then, let's hear more about why and why you hurt my daughter."

"... first of all, I don't think I'll be forgiven, but let me apologize."

Deep down, Heinelinde lowers his head.

"Instead of apologizing, let me explain first.I'll ask for an explanation before I judge what to do with the apology. "

"... yes."

Heinelinde nods to Leah's words, then slowly picks up the words and starts talking.

"The first thing I want you to know is that me and this Pilte are demons called vampires."

"Vampires and demons... all of a sudden we start talking nonsense."

"But that's the truth."

"... I don't know anything about demons or vampires."

"Yes, so let's start with the vampires and the demons."

Heinelinde explains carefully to avoid getting involved in the conversation.

"In other words, I attacked my daughter and erased her memory just to get information, even if she didn't really have to drink blood, as long as she had Magic Rose.Is that what this is all about? "

It's a really thorny way of saying it, but it's also a high-pressure tone.

But that's obvious. As for Mr. Leah, you'd want to kill him.

"I don't make excuses. I attacked your daughter for me.

Even if I was killed, I had to do something. "

"Hmm. You said you were ready."

"As long as my life is enough, I don't mind."

"... hah... I thought this might happen someday."

"What do you mean?"

I doubt Leah's unexpected reaction.

"... my husband, I mean Sanamari's father.

He told me that there was demonic blood flowing through him. "

Apparently, Leah's husband knew about his blood.

"I mean, I know that, and I chose my husband.

My husband said that his blood might cause trouble to me and Sanamari. "

"No, that's..."

I tried to say no, but stop interrupting the conversation and shut your mouth.This is a discussion between Leah and Heinelinde.

"So, what happens to vampires when they take blood?"

"No, nothing will happen.Our fangs are special, and after biting, there is a secretion that can heal the wound.This will heal the wound completely and leave no scars. "

This is the first time I've heard of it, but that's how it works...

Could it be something like healing magic?

I feel that the vampire's abilities are far removed from those of others.Maybe that's what they call a monster.

"Aren't you worried about illness?"

"Yes, don't worry about it."

"Are you sure you didn't do anything else?"

"I swear to the demons, and to Floystole, I did nothing else."

"... I'll believe you."

Leah says with her eyelids closed.

"But listen carefully.

You're thinking fundamentally wrong. "

………………

Leah opened her eyelids and looked straight at Heinelinde's eyes, saying she was clear.

"We people outside the demonic world don't know much about the demons, and many people are scared.That's why they must have come out of the demonic world and felt bad about it.

Maybe there was something I couldn't imagine.I can't help but understand that this will make us out of the demonic world unbelievable.

But you know, stopping believing is the same as giving up what you understand.

Betrayed, hurt, and yet you can't understand each other unless you believe me.

The first thing you had to think about was knowing that you could learn from your situation and talk to me properly. "

………………

Hynelinde's words didn't make any noise.

Leah is an animal race and has lived much shorter than Heinelinde.Life expectancy will be much shorter.Compared to the native Heinelinde, there must be a difference between heaven and earth in the amount of experience.But that's why there are some things I know.

Leah is hitting Heinelinde from the front.

Among the stories I heard from Heinelinde was that the Demon King saved the vampire.I accepted it because I believed it was supposed to be my enemy all along.As a result, the vampires were saved.It's the same thing.

And Heinelinde herself must have noticed the fact that she looked silent and painful.

"That's why I believe you.To tell you the truth, I would like you to punish me immediately, but I don't intend to put the entire demon tribe in danger.It's like my husband's home, after all.

I won't forgive you, but I'll swallow it. "

"Ah, thank you!"

"Thank you."

Pilte and Heinelinde lowered their heads.

"But that's me, not my daughter."

"I know."

"My daughter is pure.Having discussed it like I did, I'm not convinced.I apologize from the bottom of my heart. "

"Yes, I got it."

Heinelinde and Pilte once again lowered their heads deeply.

Leah still seemed to have something to say, but she swallowed it first.

Then, Leah, Heinelinde, and Pilte go to Sanamari's room.

Me and Nil and Hulina are waiting in the living room.Leah told me to wait.I assume you decided that there would be no danger.

If anything happens, I'll be ready for you to rush in immediately, but let's have four of you discuss it.

"Leah is amazing... I don't think I can swallow it either."

Hulina shouted at Leah's response.

"It's not like I haven't done anything."

Is Sanamari okay?

"I don't know... the victims of the past seem to be digesting a little, but Sanamari was the other day..."

Wait an hour less worried.

Gacha...

The door of Sanamari's room opens, and Heinelinde and Pilte emerge.

Their faces are terribly dark.Did you feel the brutality of what you did when you were grudged over and over?

When you see Leah and Sanamari not coming out, they must be talking in the room.

He said, "You can't forgive me?"

"... no, I'm glad nothing happened.Thank you for telling me.... "

I was prepared to be scolded to death, but it was a pattern of people thanking me.

Personally, I think it's tougher that way.Because he hurt someone so kind until he fell asleep.Heinelinde and Pilte also felt it and looked dark.

If that face is not an act, one can say that one has a heart.

"Looks like they're deeply engraved in their mistakes."

Yeah...

Yes...

So did Grandma Arten, but the demons have rough sections.I don't think I can do it a little better... but there are many differences between the magic world and the outside, and the feeling may be different.

I told you to follow my country when you enter it, and that's just an excuse...

"You may be depressed, but I need all the victims to talk to you."

"I know."

"It's what we've done..."

"If you know that, let's go next.You don't want me to stay long. "

Yeah...

Yes...
