We'll leave Hulina and Leah and Sanamari in charge, and we'll tour the victim's house.

After all, I spent two days touring the remaining six houses.

When I went to talk to the three women, they each responded differently.

One laughed at the two whispering words of relief, while the other repeated his grudges while crying, and the other was furious that he should be beaten.

Naturally, Heinelinde was willing to accept everything.

And when he accepted everything, he said he wouldn't do it until he was in the guild.

Conversely, all three men responded.

Listen calmly and grudge.And I said forgive me.

It must have been a painful experience for men, but compared to the fear of women, there were still many people who were calm.

"What we did hurt people's hearts so much..."

That's right...

"I'm glad the victims are all nice people."

Originally, it wasn't strange that one of the victims asked me to stick it out in the guild.

It is in a sense a miracle that this did not happen.

The woman eventually said that relief was better than anger, and the man was refreshed to hear the truth.

"I really do... thank you."

"I should have been more careful... no, I should have trusted others."

Even if all the victims didn't forgive me, they settled first.By the time we found out, this case was closed.

We'll have to report it to the Alliance later, but since we've talked to the victims, if we talk about it and the Great Alliance requests it, they won't be severely punished.Even worse, we should be banned from entering or leaving the city.

But before we do that, we need to check something.If Nil and I can't be sure these two are on the Lampard side, we can't ask the Grand Alliance to do anything about it, so I want something to make sure of it.

If all this is an act and the Lampardo side, the Demons will be left in limbo.

So, before going to the Guild, I decided to go to the Temple where the Heinelindes were and discuss it further.

Of course, I knew about Grandma Arten and didn't tell her that she was dead or that she was keeping a pendant.

I wish I could ask Amazonas and Hollow which side these two belong to, but since I can't do that, I need to judge here.

Believe me, Arten saved Eagle Crow's life... and I want to know why Arten didn't rely on vampires.

If Arten didn't rely on vampires because she didn't trust them, it's too dangerous to trust them.

The rebels of Lampardo are part of Lampardo!I don't mean to be presumptuous, but I think we should listen to the story and decide.

What was asked was the reason why I was convinced that Grandma Arten had come out, and the state of the demonic world after that.

Little by little, I looked at the state of the demonic world, and I heard a little about the past from Grandma Arten.Let's ask if there are any inconsistencies.

"Do you still have something to say to us?"

Heinelinde wonders and asks questions about stopping by the temple.

"Before I go to the guild, I need to ask you a few questions."

"You really didn't do anything but steal blood, did you?"

"No, not this time.It's about the magic world and the Arten-Arabor that came out of the story. "

"... what do you do when you hear that?"

"I'm just an S-ranked adventurer.If Lampardo has vandalized the magical world, there is a possibility of damage to us as well.And the Holy Knights.Do we need to take action? "

"If that happens, the whole world will be in trouble."

"That's why I want to know more.

Learn as much as you can. "

"... I've taken care of you, and I've already told you almost everything, so I won't be reluctant anymore.

That's going to be a long story, but as long as I remember what happened in the past, I'll tell you in detail. "

Without saying no, Heinelinde starts talking a long time ago.

"I see... Arten - Arabol-sama came out of the magical world only after an order from the Demon King was given."

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.

About ten years ago...

"What?! Did the Demon King really give such an order?!"

Even in the demonic world, the voice of an old woman echoes through the compartment where the witches live, the Navonabor.The LORD is Arten-Arabor. It was Grandma Arten later.

It was one of the witches who made the old woman raise her voice, one of Arten-Arabor's attendants.

"Ha, yes..."

An attendant who shrinks and responds as if he were angry.

Gacha...

"What's going on?"

A loud voice opens the door to Arten-Arabol's room.

"Heineken! Did you hear that?!"

It was Heinelinde who opened the door.At this time, Heinelinde had an errand at Arten-Arabol, carrying his legs just in front of the door.

"Yes, I heard that earlier.

The Demon King unlocked the research that the Witches had forbidden.

I'm here to ask you a lot about the situation. "

"This is the first time I've heard that... why did the Devil give you such an order...?"

"Arabol-sama, don't you know..."

"I haven't seen either the Demon King or the Demon Queen lately..."

"... do you think Lampard is involved?"

"I see... the conditions set by the Demon King to protect all of us in the demonic world and ourselves.It's impossible to disarm easily.There's no doubt that someone's got it. "

"Those scum...."

Heinelinde shows his fangs and displays his anger on his face.

"Heineken, as you always say.If you get too angry, you'll ruin your beautiful face. "

"But don't get mad at me!"

"I know how you feel, but now it's time to check the status quo and gather information."

"... I see. I'll take care of the collection."

Well then, I'm checking the status quo.I'm going to see the Queen. "

"Thank you."

ARTEN - Having left Arabol's room, Heinelinde travels at his feet to Caesaren, the district where the vampires live.

Mother!

Pilte, daughter of Heinelinde, who is in a hurry, greets her on her way to the Caesaren district.

"Pilte, did you get anything?"

"Looks like you still have Lampard!"

"It seems to have been as expected..."

"Do you want to act now?"

"... no. Now that Arabol-sama is moving, we'd better not move badly.Instead, I'll find out who in the Lampardo put his hand on the Demon King. "

"Isn't the whole Lampard…?"

"No matter how much anti-Demon King force it was, the Demon King had his eyes shining.I don't think it's easy to get inside. "

"Does that mean someone was pulling their hand from the inside...?"

"Examine it. Whoever you're dealing with, be thorough."

Are the four demon generals also targeted?

The Four Demon Generals are the kingdom guards of the Demon King, the highest ranking of them, and the four given their titles are called the Four Demon Generals.

"Yes, there is no exception for anyone."

"... Arabol-sama...?"

"I'll do that.I don't think anything will come out. "

"Yes."

"Take some people you can trust.I'll keep you posted.

I'm sorry to make you imitate my family's bellies... "

"I am your mother's daughter from the time you saved me from the villain.Don't worry about that. "

"... thank you.

Now, go. "

Yes!

Pilte runs away from Heinelinde.

And Heinelinde goes where the pureblooded vampires are to report this.

There are four compartments in the area where vampires live.

The town of vampires is shaped like a mountain, in the middle of the city, and at the top of the mountain is a castle where the true ancestors live.It is a large castle commonly known as Alice Castle and is a Western-style castle based on black.This castle of Alice and the central division inhabited by those who inherited Alice's blood most intensely among the pureblooded species are called the True Ancestral District.

Outside the circumference is the pureblood district where the remaining purebloods and some thin-blooded species live.On the outside, there are thin-blooded areas inhabited by the remaining thin-blooded species, and on the periphery of the remainder, mixed areas inhabited by mixed species.

Heinelinde was a vampire living in the thin-blood district and headed to the pureblood district to report.

Specifically, the content should have been communicated to the true ancestors and high-ranking pureblood species, but it was not possible to jump over the head of other pureblood species and report, first to the pureblood district, and then to the true ancestor district by a competent person.

Heinelinde was not so high in the vampire world, but he was especially close to Arabol.For this reason, it was often used heavily to meet with Aravor to help maintain good relations with other races.

From this background, the vampire who can conduct her background check without sacrificing Arabol's mood is as good as Heinelinde.And because Heinelinde herself understood that, she bought an investigation herself.

Then Heinelinde conducted a background check on Arabol, Pilte on Lampard, and Arten-Arabol on the demon king and his surroundings.

I learned the rough thing in a few days.

Heinelinde came to Arten-Arabol alone to report it to each other.

Concon...

"It's Heine."

ARTEN - The door of Arabol's room is knocked, and a whisper of Heinelinde is heard passing through the door.

"Come in."

Gacha...

"Excuse me."

Heinelinde came in politely and opened the door.

"Sorry to keep you on your feet all the time."

"When Arabol calls, he will come immediately."

"I'm with Heine.I'll skip the prefix. "

"Yes."

Arten - Arabol smokes cigarettes.

"Well, let's hear your story first."

"Yes."

Arten - Heinelinde responds honestly to Aravor's words.

"First of all, about Lampard's involvement, but I'm sure he's involved."

"Well... I was expecting it, but it's going to be a mess...

So you know who's involved? "

"No… I don't see any clear evidence that you're hiding well."

What's Heineken's guess?

"Rather than the whole Lampard, I have the impression that some people are moving on their own."

"If that happens, it's too dangerous..."

"Yes, it would be quite dangerous if only some of them approached the Devil.

At the very least, it seems that some of the people approaching without permission are the killers. "

"Finding the evidence won't be easy when you're up against it."

"I'll find out."

"As long as it's reliable. But no matter how much special vampire magic there is, it doesn't move too flashy to attract attention."

"I know."

Is Alice saying something?

"The Vampires are told to take a full cooperation stance."

"That's Alice.They already know that the Demon King is being manipulated by someone else. "

"I've been friends with the Demon King since I joined the Demon Clan.You know all about the Devil. "

"I can count on you. Is there anything else you should know?"

"One.

Apparently, there is a high probability that some of the witches are involved... "

"The Witches are the only ones who have the trick to deceive others... I see.I'll take care of that. "

"We apologize for the inconvenience."

"I'm about to be held."

Grandma Arabol praised her hands for stopping Heinelinde as she lowered her head deeply.

Well then, it's my turn.

Arten - Arabol extinguishes the cigarette and looks Heinelinde in the eye.

"First of all, I've met the Demon Queen, but she looks normal so far."

"That's good. Thank you very much for your help."

"I can't rest assured. I got close to the Demon Queen, so it's easy to get close to the Queen.

I told you to keep your guard down, but it might be dangerous if you don't hurry. "

……………

"The Demon Queen also said that the Demon King's leopard was confused, but I don't think I know what happened.However, when you were with the Demon Queen, you said you had little time to stay sane.

Perhaps the magic isn't perfect because the Demon King is resisting. "

"If you have sane time, it will be more difficult for those around you to deal with it... it will be difficult to judge whether it is the word of the Devil himself or the word being manipulated."

"If they didn't know about the Demon King in detail, everything would be the word of the Demon King..."

"After all, there's no doubt that I only targeted the Devil King..."

"Yes, but it doesn't seem like we're aiming for the throne, and we don't know what it is."

"Don't you think it would be suspicious if you suddenly handed over the throne?"

"Only at this stage... but I don't see any behavior that would lead to such an end.

Of course, I have in mind that such things can happen in the future, but I don't really feel that the purpose is different... it's just my guess. "

"If it wasn't about the throne, what was it about?"

"I don't have enough information to discuss it... it's highly likely that something will happen in the future, but I can't do anything bad because I don't know what the anomaly is in the devil's body.

Hopefully everything will be fixed before something happens… but be careful not to force it? "

"Yes, we will continue with our current policy."

"That's it, I'll move."

"Got it."

Arten - Heinelinde finishes his discussion with Arabol and leaves the room.

ARTEN - Arabol is close to both the Demon King and the Demon Queen, and Heinelinde thought that at this time it would still be solved soon…

Then, an investigation was conducted by the vampire tribe, focusing on Heinelinde and Pilte.

ARTEN - As Arabol said, keep flashy movements down and keep them as secret as possible.

And a few more days after that.

It was Heinelinde who was trying to carry out the investigation as usual, but from that morning, a further order from the demon king was issued, and the whole demonic world was in a mess.

The contents are.....

"Out of the demonic realm?!"

"Ha, yes..."

Alternatively, Arten-Arabor's servant nodded in shock.

Gacha...

"It was loud... are you okay?"

At the same time, Heinelinde opens the door to Arten-Arabol's room.

"I can't help but rough up my voice because of what happened..."

"Are you talking about sending almost all of the Amazonian troops out this morning?"

"Exactly. What the hell is going on... The Amazonas are the most powerful proximity fighters in our demons.If we send almost all of them out, we'll know what's going to happen...

I don't think the Devil himself came up with this.If it were an order from the Devil himself, there must be a reason. "

"In the current situation, it is difficult to confirm whether it is the instructions of the Demon King himself or not..."

"It could be a much more dangerous situation than I thought... hey, hey.Could you gather some information as soon as possible so that it can get a little rough?

I'm getting a bad feeling about this. "

"Very well, let's tell those who are moving to hurry."

"I'm sorry, but I asked."

"Leave it to me."

Heinelinde has been quite busy since that day.

Anyway, thanks to the quick and varied information gathered, a number of pieces of information are gathered that cannot be dealt with alone.

Moreover, some of the information contains information that has not been verified, and miscellaneous information is simply gathered.

The vampires who gathered the information have gathered a lot of information, just as Heinelinde said, although they are limited to what is possible to some extent, they don't have to be sure.

And when the information gathers up, it is scrutinized by Heinelinde, Pilte, and Arten-Arabor.

Arten-Arabol, who knows the inside circumstances in detail, plays a lot of information, Heinelinde thought.

ARTEN - The testimony that Arabol was on the killer's side is within sight.

The fact that there are never too many testimonies makes them credible.

Heinelinde still had no doubt that Arten-Arabor was the enemy.

For Heinelinde, who had spent a lot of time with Arten-Arabol, I was convinced that that was absolutely impossible.Therefore, I did not care so much and excluded the information.

Having received a great deal of information, the three of them came to two conclusions after scrutiny.

One is that Amazonas' expedition had some intent.
