Transported to a hyper-realistic RPG.

"Especially the Humans are arrogant. I'm not talking about you.

However, there was the fact that such a thing had happened many times in the past. That's why the Demons are creating isolated spaces. However, I do know that not all of them are like that. I'm not closing it completely. "

"As a member of the same race, it's a headache... I'm also calling Soinujaf out of curiosity..."

"It's still good to be called in and asked questions like this. Much more than a guy who thought lightly and tried to sneak into the demon world.

Besides, you think humans might be arrogant. That's enough. ”

Soinujaf doesn't blame us, he just hates those who act out of the ordinary with curiosity.

Such an ogre would be everywhere, in any race, and Surakitan would have dared to use the word "human." And it was true that there were many demons in the human race who were troubling the demons.

In the case of Pilte, it is the standing side of Soinujaf, but now it is transformed into a human race, so it is said that the ears are painful. When I'm listening to that, my ears hurt.

If you still feel like you're in the game, you can do the same with me and Surakitan to unlock a new region! What a pleasure it might have been. If they say it's arrogant, I think it's true.

I think it's a game, so... I hear excuses, but it's not a problem. It's about how the other person takes the action.

I thought it was trespassing, stolen, or a game in my own house… why would I be forgiven? No one will ever forgive you. More than that, I think he's a crazy guy.

In other words, that's how the demons feel when they see people trying to enter the demon world only with curiosity. That would make me want to say a word of folly.

"Besides, it seems that the pigeon is real, as we have seen recently."

"In reality... is it true that the story of pigeons is not an urban legend?"

Tilt your body forward as if you were interested in Surakutan.

“I can't say for sure yet, but there's a good chance.”

I was thinking of gathering information on pigeon herds, but honestly, I didn't think it was necessary to get the information.

That's unexpected information.

This is all because of Effe's disguise technology. You must be grateful.

Can't you find and capture that pigeon?

"You seem like a pretty smart guy." I haven't even been able to grab my tail yet. I know you're in this city. "

I don't know how far the rhetoric of being in this city means. Do you live in this city or do you come in many times from outside?

Soinujaf didn't say anything clear because he didn't know who the pigeon shepherd was. It's hard to tell whether it's a dwarf or another species.

However, if this story is true, Pepl, a Gigas bard, will look more like a pigeon. Again, it will be necessary to go and see him.

When I met Soinujaf, I thought that there might be some kind of eye contact with the intrusion into the demon realm, but I had a strong aversion to intrusion into the demon realm itself. Even if I heard about the entrance into the demon world from here and the people who would join them, they wouldn't answer me. No, seeing such a guy in the first place, Soinujaf won't shut up.

It's hard to hear about demons and demon worlds from Soinujaf. Since it has not been discovered that it is us, I would like to ask a few more questions, but I leave the things around it to Pilte, who is the main character. It depends on the way Pilate thinks about how far he will listen and how much he will step in.

"The demons are also quite tough..."

"Well... this kind of problem doesn't happen regularly... but it's happening right now, so it's more of a story right now."

Soinujaf didn't have to ask me about the demon world and the situation outside the demon world here, and I knew it was happening. It has not been a year since I came to this world, and the fact that I know of it means that there are so many incidents that have happened.

Because the demons don't like to make contact with the outside world, this kind of thing is probably happening as a bad thing.

"So, what else do you want to ask?"

Soinujaf, we're going to slice up a district here.

That's right...

On the other hand, I took the workmanship that Pilte thought of.

Well then, can you tell me about the demon king...?

About the Demon King...?

Soinujaf turned a little suspiciously to Pilte, who was trying to provoke a conversation about the Demon King.

"What kind of person is he? How does he govern the demon world?" I'm very curious.

It's impossible for ordinary people to rule a place called the Demon Realm, where many races live. If you are such a wonderful person and have such a wonderful governance... then it is only natural that you, as a member of the nobility, should want to hear about it. "

To Soinujaf, who turned a blind eye to suspicion, Pilte tells that he is more interested in his feat and his ability to govern than in the Demon King himself.

If I could, I would like to know what is going on with the Demon King and the Demon King's Lady right now, but if the outsiders knew information that they were not supposed to know, and asked about the situation of the Demon King and the Demon King's Lady personally, I would confirm the out in one shot.

So that's not the case, so they're going through the conversation well.

I see. Indeed, the current Demon King is a little different from the previous Demon King.

Is that so?

"Ah. I think there are times when war and things have been tough before, but even if you think outside of it, the demon king's thinking is fundamentally different."

What do you mean from the bottom up?

"Speaking of the Demon King, I imagined that he would be stronger than anyone else and pull all of them..."

That said, now the Demon King puts more emphasis on convincing everyone than pulling.

Of course, since I was a demon king, I was no different than anyone else.

However, I try not to use that power as much as possible, and I am serious about improving the weak people. Not only are they strong, but they are also kind... and they have practiced such a rule. "

No matter who sees it, I can see that Soinujaf is intoxicated by the Demon King now.

As soon as it became the story of the demon king, his tongue turned into a tongue and he spoke as if he were bragging.

"You're a very nice ruler, aren't you?"

That's right. Few demons are dissatisfied with the Demon King nowadays.

"It's good to hear a nice story."

And so Pilte stops talking.

If I had listened a little more, I might have heard a lot about the Demon King...

Seeing me wondering sideways, Pilte starts talking lightly from there and then rises from the chair with a thank you.

"It was a very meaningful time." I'd love to hear your story again. "

"Now, let me ask you a lot of questions." Demons are also interested in stories outside the demon world. "

“Yeah, I'll be waiting for you.”

That's what Pilte said. He leaves the store to escape.

Of course, we're escorts, butlers, and slaves.

We'll be in the carriage soon, and we'll be moving around the city.

Immediately after the carriage runs, he casts a question on the Pilts sitting opposite him.

I'm talking about the last demon king, but didn't I have to ask you more?

"I decided it was more... dangerous than that."

"Danger...?"

I felt like I didn't see any dangerous elements at all.....

When I tilt my head and question my face, Pilte keeps talking to me.

"... do you remember the story about the Demon King?"

Yeah.

“Have you ever wondered what that was like?”

"Strangely...??"

Nil opens her mouth as I try to tilt her head further.

"Since you are the Demon King, is it the part where you are stronger than anyone else...?"

What do you mean? Because you're a demon king, you're naturally stronger than anyone else, right?

When I hear Nil's words, I don't know what to say, and I'm going to throw a question.

"In Soinujaf's story, I mentioned the demon king several times at first, but I didn't mention how to win the title of demon king at all."

"... ah!!"

The demon king is a title obtained by the strongest among several people in the demon race. In other words, there was a Demon Lord selection battle.

However, even though I was talking about the demon king without touching it at all, in the last story, I was stronger than anyone else because I was the demon king. I was naturally talking about it.

In Soinujaf, it's only natural, so I was curious to explain it, and there's a good chance that I was unexpectedly speaking up, but... I don't think the intelligence elite would make such a mistake.

I mean, don't we know about demons? Or is it the Demon Clan itself? However, it is likely that it has been tried.

Trying to imitate us is because you suspect us for some reason. In short, I suspected that we were the ones looking for the Demon King.

Besides, I felt that it was dangerous because I could not react immediately, and Pilate left the store to escape.

"Were you noticed...?"

That's not true.

Heine denies it in a manner that is close to assertion.

“If they had noticed us from the beginning, they wouldn't have met or shared their information with us. Especially when it comes to the demons."

If so, where was it suspected?

"From what I've heard from the Demon King..."

Sure, it was a gaze of suspicion...

It was only when I was encouraged to talk about the Demon King that I turned to my suspicious eyes, but then it seemed normal when I talked about it. At least that's what I looked like.

"I don't think there was anything unnatural about the flow of talk, so I think it's still at a stage where I still doubt it, but I thought it might be dangerous if I put it off for too long, so I left."

"Was that what it was like..."

I had the impression that it was over without really knowing, but maybe there was a chance that something bad could have happened even if I didn't say "fight" like that. I'm glad I left it to Pilate...

“I didn't feel confident and suspicious, so I don't think I'm going to do anything directly.”

Maybe you're doing the same thing to everyone who's trying to talk to you about the Demon King.

"Regardless of who the opponent is, I'll look into it anyway... I don't know if it's a suspicion."

By the way, after all, what is Soinujaf doing in this city? "

“It's easy. I'm looking for a dove.”

Pigeon breeding?

"From that tone, perhaps there is more damage than we talked about."

"You've become an unacceptable opponent and sent in intelligence agents."

"That means that the presence of pigeons has finally become a reality."

"From Soinujaf's tone of voice, I think it is difficult to follow him into the demon realm. He seemed to be very loyal to the Demon King.”

“Nil is right.”

When that happens... it's finally time to look into pigeon husbandry.

"Because the details are too unclear, I didn't want to get involved if possible..."

There's also a way to find other demons, isn't there?

That's what you expect, isn't it?

"That's right. As Soinujaf said, there are overwhelmingly fewer demonic tribes today that hate the Demon King."

Soinujaf also said that there were few of them. In fact, no one in the demon race had ever said anything bad about the Demon King. A king loved by his people. It is impossible to search for a demon tribe that betrays it with this Zaghumbel. If you saw Soinujaf's attitude, you'd know better.

"If the pigeons and Soinujaf are in a hostile relationship, then the demons and the pigeons will be in a hostile relationship."

Is everyone okay with that? "

"In this situation, I don't have a choice." If there is no other way, we have no choice but to follow it. "

"I'm sure Efu-san is thinking the same thing."

I see...

In other words, it's like betraying a demon race. But that's what I knew from the beginning.

It seems that Heine's feelings have already hardened.

I've heard strange things.

“If that's the case, I think we should be more proactive in gathering information about pigeons.”

"Was it Pepl...? Would you like to make contact with that person again?"

"Yeah, it's the most suspicious thing I've seen so far."

"It's too suspicious, but on the contrary, it feels unnatural..."

As for Surakutan, it seems that he has the impression that he is quite suspicious, and he thinks that contact with Pepl is not very favorable.

At that time, I was filled with exhilaration that I might have found it, but whoever looked at it, this is it! Because of the appearance, when I think about it now, I also feel suspicious.

Maybe it's the bard Soinujaf arranged to roast the doves?

That's why you can't ignore that man...

"I can't believe it. I'll talk to you about it later... but it's quiet around here, isn't it?"

Heine notices the eccentricity of the atmosphere surrounding us.

"Master."

At that moment, Nil, who had been the ruler, called out to us in the carriage.

"It's so quiet."

When I put my face toward the gardener's seat and asked Nil, he responded by nodding, not by his voice.

I have felt this air many times. Pre-fight silence.

To be precise, the bustle of the city can be heard in the distance, and our place is not particularly quiet. It's just that the cold air drifts like that.

“But something is wrong.”

"Ahh..."

If something happens at this timing, it is very likely that you are the spinner of Soinujaf.

If you think you know us, or if you notice us, and you move your men, it's normal for you to launch an attack or take some kind of action immediately.

However, for some reason, there is no indication that they will do anything to us.

It's not coming, it's not coming for murderous intent...

"It feels like you're being observed..."

"If you don't want to fight over there... you'll pass unnoticed."

Got it.

Psshhh!

Nil, as I said, pushes the horse forward with a net, as if he hadn't noticed.

The slugs in the wagon are ready for battle with their weapons on.

Probably okay.

When I say that, the slugs relax their shoulders and take their hands off the weapon.

"It's okay... then what are you doing this for?"

"I see... I wonder if we're making sure they're really harmless."

In that case, it's a shoddy tail, isn't it?

"It's better to think that you're daring to do that."

If you're aware of this and react, you're not just a noble girl and her escort. ”

"If you were a noble knight, you'd probably notice this much air...?"

"The knights of the nobility, unlike other knights, have very little combat experience." Especially when it comes to interpersonal combat. ”

The nobleman's prayer is only to protect the nobleman. A weak aristocrat or an aristocrat living in a dangerous area would still be a powerful aristocrat if he were allowed to enter Zaaganbel. There weren't many idiots who attacked the nobility of the Great Court.

There was no doubt that he was the knight he had hired for his time, but it seemed that by hiring him, he was often less experienced than other knights.

Naturally, the knights will be constantly training so that it doesn't happen... but there are big differences in various parts between training and actual combat. That's because I've been reminded that I don't like it since I came to this world.

A knight with little actual combat experience could be considered an exquisite sign if he noticed this air.

"If you reacted strangely here, Soinujaf might have looked at you in a different way."

"I feel like I can make excuses by being a knight with a lot of practical experience...?"

“It's not an excuse, it's a suspicion.”

If Soinujaf, who is very loyal to the Demon King, came to this city to investigate the pigeon shepherds, it would be no surprise that he did something to... suspect people from one side. I probably didn't even go through a forceful interrogation or murder, but it seemed like I was doing something that would slightly hurt.

I wouldn't have been able to move freely for a while. It seemed to me that it was a bad decision to tell Nil to proceed in an unnoticed manner.
