We Live in Dragon’s Peak

We rushed back to the Mansion, convincing Levaria to go to bed.

As Lila reported, the giant demon king awaited my return.

Besides, he looks grumpy!

Um, are you here?

"I don't care about nonsense greetings."

From the atmosphere, something must have happened that would have damaged the Demon King's mood.

In fear of the murderous demon king's signs, all the elders who lived in the mansion ran away.

Mistral, who sends tea to the Demon King, also smiles bitterly as if he was in trouble.

It's quite an unusual sight.

The demon king often expressed a pleasant mood, but he didn't show much serious grudge.

Well, if you let out negative emotions in this way, perhaps it will cause a murderous or irritating aura and annoy the surroundings.

In any case, the Demon King didn't seem to hide his grudge, so he waited for the whole family, including me, to gather.

So, what's the matter?

The way to take extra prying and distant stories doesn't apply to the Demon King now. So, I'll ask you what happened frankly.

The demon king seemed so frustrated that he spoke of the purpose of his visit.

Besides, we didn't expect it.

"The news of Louilala is gone."

"Huh!?"

This time, Louilala is missing!?

Surely, the Demon Ruler and his sidekick were also missing from this time, right?

Could it have something to do with it?

When I asked the question, the Demon King shook his head to the side with a big sigh.

"No, you know them." I was trying to get Luirala to look around the fairy demon king and the winged nation in the south of his country. "

That's right.

I was also concerned about the disturbing movement of the Divine Clan, but the Fairy Demon King Kusharira was wary of the disturbance.

And in the south of the kushalila realm, there was a country built by winged people.

It seems that the country of the Winged is further in the south, hunting slaves in a small country of the human race, and stalking people beyond the Heavenly Mountains.

And by selling the slaves you've roamed to the demonic country and the godly country, you've successfully survived the country under the protection of both.

Kushalila and the Divine Clan. If there is some movement together, it is possible that the slave trade is also active. So, the giant demon king sent a close friend, Louilala, to get a lot of information from the western region.

However, it was said that Louilala had disappeared.

Where the hell did Luilala go missing?

I should have been in regular contact if I knew she was missing.

Since the regular contact was interrupted, and because I looked into the cause, I think the Demon King definitely asserted that Louilala was missing.

So, how long has Louilala been in regular contact with you? If I can figure that out, I might be able to get a certain amount of eye contact.

"That wasn't all on its own this time." I had a wide area to look into. So, when I took some of my men to the Fairy Demon King's country, I got a report. "

Unlike us, Luilala does not have the art of traveling freely through the sky. Of course, I can't use the spatial transition, so I went west through the tunnel and then entered the kusharira kingdom.

The country of the demons is quite large.

Each of the demon kings' kingdoms is much bigger than the Arm 'ad Kingdom or Yortenitos Kingdom, so it's hard to just move to the desired area.

Nevertheless, thanks to the development of the human country, the streets are cleanly maintained everywhere, so the movement speed becomes faster than the human country.

That's why Luirala made it to the land of Kushalila in such a short time.

But I think there's been a problem.

"I don't think I'll be lagging behind the bandits and monsters because I'm talking about Louilala..."

"Of course. That's a senior demon race too." And he was a son of the ancestors. No matter how stupid your swordsmanship is, you won't be lagging behind the inferior people who hide in the mountains. "

Well then?

Why on earth did Louilala turn off the news?

It was unlikely that I was attacked by an outrageous bandit, a monster, a demon beast, or a demonic creature. So, having entered the area of interest, you entered the undercover investigation?

No, that's unlikely. I mean, if I were to hide, I'd have to report it in advance.

It is most likely that a situation has suddenly arisen in which Luirala and the others who have entered the country of Kusharira cannot be contacted on a regular basis.

"Hmmm. Louilala, who has enough strength to be recognized by the gods, disappeared from the mission territory of Kushalila..." A disturbing presence...... in the land of Kushalila...... Kushalila!? "

Ah, I can think of something.

"Normally speaking, Kushalilla must be flying an agent or something, just like the giant demon king sends secret agents all over the place." In that case, I thought it was likely that Kusharira was also reading the giant demon king's movements to some extent. And that's Louilala, right? I think you were definitely being watched as a disturbing person from the other side! "

Louilala has gone to the land of the gods to scout and take prominent action there. Well, then, I suppose you were acting in a way that would be annoying to others in the land of Kusharira.

Well, what about Louilala?

In response to Mistral's question, I showed my reasoning with a bitter smile.

I'm sure you've been caught by Kusharira's men!

I'm sure of it.

Luilala is currently trapped by Kushalila, so we haven't been able to contact her regularly or scout her.

But I wonder if that Louilala will be caught quietly by the enemy.

"Mistral, think about it." The giant demon king and Kusharira are not close, but that's why they don't fight from the front, right? "

The giant demon king has been in some kind of conflict, stopping Kusharira's ambitions or capturing territory after ravaging previously ruled territory. Even so, they cooperated with each other in defeating the Demon King.

That's why I don't think it's the relationship between dogs and monkeys that destroys or kills each other's countries.

So, what if Louilala, a close associate who knows her king doesn't want war or turmoil, is attacked by Kushalilla's men?

I knew that killing each other would cause trouble for the Demon King, so I was sure to try to get things done peacefully.

In fact, even when Lister and I were attacked by Kusharira's subordinates in the Heavenly Mountains, Louilala resisted only moderately. Well, you were caught lightly!

"I know that Kusharira's subordinates will be important if they take on various famous Louilala, so they will be compensated for their lives." But since you don't want them to roam freely around your country, I wonder if you're imprisoning them and depriving them of their freedom? "

In response to my reasoning, the giant demon king nodded grumpily.

“The guesses we've made are pretty much the same.”

"So, after all, since you're captured by Kusharilla, regular contact has been interrupted." However, I don't know where they're trapped, so I don't know where they are? "

I'm a little relieved.

The Demon King said it was urgent without hiding his grumpiness, so we thought there had been a terrible incident.

However, even though I could not get hold of the information, I knew that there was no imminent danger to Louilala's life.

So, we relax a little bit from what we were strangling.

It's happened in the past, and I was anxious to see if the Divine Clan had finally started to move.

"Fool, the Emperor of the Divine Clan must know what kind of forbidden magic he has dug up." If so, we will be proceeding with caution. Prudence is also required to explore the tail, so it takes time with yourself. Charlotte joked that it would take decades to break up, but it would actually take a while. ”

Nevertheless, it is true that beneath the surface there is a dangerous plan that threatens the people who live in the world.

And in order to learn a little more about the movement of the God tribe, we still need to investigate the country of the winged tribe.

However, Louilala, who was on an important mission, is missing due to Kushalilla's sabotage.

That's why the Demon King is so grumpy.

"If Louilala is still missing, I will be in trouble if the worst situation is that she has lost her life at the hands of the Fairy Demon King." I'm going to have to explain myself to that sea rambler. "

"Huh! Are you worried about me?!"

We laugh bitterly when we learn the truth about why the Demon King is in a bad mood about Louilala.

Apparently, Louilala's parents, the rulers of the northern seas, are rampaging enough to hate the giant demon king. I wonder what kind of ancestors they are?

Maybe Ream and Fiorina should just leave the ocean in the distance. Otherwise, they could have been attacked by the Rampage's ancestors. And I remember the adventures of Reem and Fiorina.

However, it was not the case that I was immersed in peaceful memories.

Therefore, I will apply to them.

Huh?

From now on, go to the land of Kushalila and rescue Louilala.

Eh!

"If you don't want to, we'll sink them into the northern sea as sacrifices."

"Oh, you're such an idiot!!"

I'm cumming.

The giant demon king was going to take this story with him from the beginning!

In the first place, you don't have to bother telling us that Louilala is missing. Moreover, even though the source is missing, the safety of the person is almost certainly guaranteed, and that reasoning was also derived from our own past.

And yet, why did you come to us? That was to get us involved!

"Um, do you have any rest...?"

"I would have taken enough already."

No, no, it's not enough, right?

Well then, you can rescue Louilala and rest well afterwards.

"How long will it take to rescue Luirala!?"

"It's up to them."

"Shh. You're just letting us go, aren't you?"

"Of course, they have no right of veto."

You devilish bastard! And I was about to scream. That's right, because I'm the worst evil demon race, I'm convinced that I'm the demon king.

And knowing that it was an inescapable mission, I was disappointed.

On the other hand, the Demon King was able to safely press us against our troubles, so he was out of his grudge.

"Good. Now, listen to their rest."

"Huh! What about Louilala's rescue?!"

"You can take care of that after we talk about rest."

”Louilala will be put off later...”

Bring me some wine, and the demon king will start to relax like my family.

Mistral drops his shoulders and goes to the alcoholic beverage, as he was told, and Louise and Madeline head to the kitchen to prepare a dish.

What happened to Priscia?

"Priscia is currently studying in the Dragon Forest Village." Sometimes I have to make them live over there. "

Well, we smiled at the demon king who showed us a little hand-held lid.

The Demon King likes Priscia, too.

The plan to tailor that girl to the future demon king is also interesting.

"No, no, no, no, no, no!"

What a thing to say!

You were trying to brainwash an innocent little girl and make her a demon king!

"Kukuku, it's a lie. I can't possibly do that."

Really?

"That's more adorable to watch than to be naive." I don't want to put it at the center of this troublesome power struggle. "

If you try to draw Priscia into the demonic side, I'll do my best to stop you!

We survived a bigger crisis than the Louilala disappearance!

Okay, it's time to save Louilala.

Wait for me, Louilala. I'm going to help the giant demon king after he shows off his story of rest!
