We Live in Dragon’s Peak

"What, you said you were adventurous when you were young?

"It spanned my partner's land dragon and went to many places."

"That is what I am now incapable of. It's a tricky thing."

"No, no, I'm glad this is it. Some cute people take care of you for what you deserve."

The king of the kingdom of Joltenitos, who seemed to have a pleasant conversation with your son's superior demonic clan, stared at the lyra beside him.

"Ho, what about the warcraft that was ravaging the country? But what we're talking about is a warcraft that can be crusaded by race, right?

"Say what. We were able to take the head of the beast by joining forces with the princesses and queens."

The king of the kingdom of Armuad also boasts a martial arts tradition surrounded by stubborn demons.

People also have people of all kinds, from great people like saint princes to extremely evil people. Just like that, there are cheerful or serious among the demons. When you understand that, you're the one who lives in the same world, whether you're a people or a demon, and you're losing your preconceived notions.

Everyone in the Fathers Union also seems to have begun to understand that the Demons aren't just horrible as they drink and eat soothingly.

Well, there was some interaction during the disturbances that occurred earlier in the people's country and in our marriage rituals, and some demons deepened their intimacy then.

This way, there has always been a basement where we can get along beyond the race.

Alcohol was also in, and those gathered in the great hall were showing great bustle.

In that case, the Demon King, who was drinking with my father, takes his seat.

I guess it's my fault. I felt like a slight eye signal told me to "follow you," and I got up, too.

Then Luirala and several other seemingly nearby demons quietly began to retreat from the banquet seat.

I will leave the Great Hall with the Demon King.

The Mistrals were happily in the banquet ring, so I was the only one in my family who left.

As the demon kings and Luirallahs exit the Great Hall, they continue down the long corridor.

From the transparent vitreous windows lining one side of the hallway, the view of the night was visible.

We go through a long corridor that stretches in a straight line, and now take the corridor to the right and to the left.

Apparently, we're headed to the depths of Demon King's Castle.

As I followed the Demon King, I saw the demons once again escaping the banquet hall.

Everybody, all the advanced demons.

A samurai-like demon tribe, a civil-like demon tribe. The looks and atmosphere were varied, but they all had the appearance and presence of the Demon King's proximity.

Then I still wonder here.

"Hey, Luilara. What about Charlotte?"

I was really curious, and I checked with Luilara to see where he was.

It's also a weird story that Charlotte, the prime minister, can't be seen from the beginning of the visit, even though all the sides are aligned.

Besides, if he's not here again, I can't show him the finished mirror.

Luilara answered my question without slowing down.

"That one's busy. I know you're somewhere in Demon King's Castle, but I'm sure you're extremely busy.

"Yeah, are you busy?"

"Well, I'm busy. It's noisy near the northern border."

I see. Is it also because the four-armed demon general is not here?

Apparently, the kingdom ruled by the giant demon king is under military businessmanship.

"Maybe I should have refrained from traveling men?

Asking the demon king who goes in front of him, he was denied without looking back here.

"No, you don't have to worry about it. My country is not so fragile that I cannot welcome guests with this much noise"

Instead, one of the neighbors laughed, a good opportunity to show that he could afford to invite guests from a country of people in the distance.

"Still, the border's noisy, it's about the Baltic Noir, right?

On the north side of the kingdom of the demon king of giants is the territory that Kushalillah ruled in the past.

But Kushalilla was forced to change the country to the west, and now it's an anarchy zone.

And it is a faction of the Baltic Noir that is leaping in that anarchic zone.

"I don't see any signs of breaking the border and breaking in deep. Still, if you're not on guard, you're gonna get stuck under your feet."

"There's been a bandit on Luirala's territory, right?

"Yeah, well, there's a lot of noise going on everywhere."

"May I ask specifically?

I'm also concerned about the disturbances that the Baltic Noirs are causing.

So I wanted to know what information the Demon Clan was grasping, and I asked the Demon King more than Luirala.

As the Demon King progresses through the long corridor, he enters an office room.

There was no atmosphere of rejection, so I accompanied him into the room.

The neighbors also come into the office.

And I sigh with no one, seeing the paperwork put like a mountain on a large and splendid platform.

"Not at all. Don't hate the Chancellor's abilities when you're this good"

"I thought I'd finished processing it during the day. Here it is at the arrow tip."

"Somebody stop the Chancellor!

Apparently, Charlotte is too good to be chased to work even by those who work downstairs.

Look at the paperwork that has become a heap.

Then all the things that encourage my country's response to the disturbances taking place in the north.

The noise seems to be stopped near the border, but the impact seems to be definitely on the country.

"It's a noise that involves them. I'll give you as much detail as I can. Let's start with the bandits."

According to the Demon King's story, bandits in red cloth are rampaging around on a wide scale.

Are thieves called redcloth thieves led by demons called Risen?

That's a name I've heard.

But you're a senior demon who fights in the fighting subjects who raided Mr. Sefina in the Dragon King's capital.

Red cloth thieves are vandalizing all over the place to the sidelines.

If you attack villages and settlements, you kill all the inhabitants and take away the hardware. Because merchants, adventurers, bounty neck hunting, etc. are also being attacked depending on their allowances, or are there beginning to be serious obstacles to circulation in the north?

"It's just that if the Bandits are one, it's still not going to get serious. We just need to concentrate on where the red cloth thieves are."

"But you don't?

"That's right. Thank you. In the north, the red cloth seems to mark each other. If you wear a red cloth, everyone can be named Red Cloth Theft. And the redcloth thieves began to work with each other and face the crusaders. Those living in the north are afraid of retaliation for redcloth theft and so on, and are unable to reach them."

"Risen acquiesces to it, even if someone other than the bandits he organized imitates it, right?

"That's right. Rather, don't even look like you're stirring it up. This lookout makes a red cloth gleam around his face, and he's raging all over it."

I mean, I can't get my hands on it.

Even in the northern lands that have become anarchic zones, there exist demons and righteous people who try to defend their territories.

But when redcloth theft grows and gets rampant all over the place, and when you get your hands on it, you get retaliated against by other bandits, the movement of goodwill shrinks, right?

When I said what I thought, the demons made me laugh bitterly.

"Elnea, if a demon tribe like yours stayed north, that would have been nice..."

"What!?

Luilara's sigh made me pull my face with a bad feeling.

"Remember in the land of the east, there was a man with the devil's sword of the slayer of God"

Asked by the Demon King, he recalls the incident in the kingdom of Jortenitos.

A demon swordsman with full body armor took the queen hostage, didn't he?

"Even those who wear the same red cloth move differently than the bandits. According to a confirmed story just now, there are demon swordsmen who attack all hands."

"That's the one with the Devil's Sword of God Killer?

"That's right. He's wearing a cloth about it, too. And it strikes not only lords and advanced demons everywhere, but also those who move for the Demon Throne from one end"

"That's annoying!

Does attacking a demon clan that's after the Demon King's throne mean you're after the Demon King's throne yourself? I don't know about that, but the problem is that they're raiding even advanced demons and lords unrelated to the Battle for the Demon Throne, right?

Lords and advanced demons who remain in the northern lands in this situation are like the last wedge, so to speak.

No matter how rough the northern lands are, some security can be maintained if the lords work hard. Likewise, if something is to be rampaged around where the advanced demon tribe lives, they will buy that advanced demon tribe's wrath and be defeated.

But if even that demon clan gets attacked and loses the wedge of the area, all we have to do is disintegrate.

The redcloth theft is behaving like a bystander everywhere, probably because this is how the wedges everywhere are missing.

"But you're only the Demon King who didn't stab a demon swordsman to transfer him...?

"What?

"No, it's nothing!

If I had a penetration, I would have been stared at by the Demon King!

But that's where I feel uncomfortable.

For some reason I felt signs from the eyes of the Demon King that I had not received the status quo in the north so seriously.

I don't know the exact reason.

Maybe it's also a secret to the Demon King?

"Honestly think of it as the depth of nostalgia"

"Yes!"

The demon king who read my thoughts tightened me up with words that would not say whether or not he had.

But it's still not serious that you didn't deny my thoughts?

But from what I've heard, the northern lands seem desolate, and the effects are starting to affect this country, right?

"After all, shouldn't we send troops on a massive scale?

However, unlike the Demon King, who has a mysterious sense of security, some of his neighbors seemed anxious about the current situation in the north.

Recommend as if one of the nearest sides had a sense of impatience.

"No, wait. How about moving the army? Even the disturbance ahead has once marched out. If you imitate any more, how will the center come out..."

"After the demon king of the north left, and then how rough the land of the north would be after our troops withdrew, the center has intervened last time, knowing it. If you show any more blatant interference there, there will be a flame of central intervention here."

"But isn't the situation completely different back then and now"

"No, it's not. There's no way the center missees what happens to a land where those who aim for the Demon Throne show strength"

The center is the one who exists above the Demon King, right?

The neighbors seem to fear that by interfering to the north, the superior will turn to them.

Nor did the Demon King approve of the demonic army's departure to see if that was a concern, or if there was another thought.

"So should we still hire adventurers"

"If it were a request from the state government, there would be quite a few of them, wouldn't there?

"When that happens, don't need to discuss it with the Adventurers' Union"

Sounds like there's an organization in Devil's Nation that supports adventurers.

Well, I guess the adventurers of the Demon Nation are the Demons.

"If we're going to make demands on the adventurers, we also need to coordinate with our neighbors. Make sure the rewards match, and the adventurer's footsteps don't match."

At the behest of the Demon King, several sides rushed out of the room.

"As for this one, I'm prepared to offer those who calmed the disturbances in the north a fair amount of reward, right?

And the demon king who sees me all the time.

"I refuse the Demon King's request! Because I'm afraid of rewards. But I do care about Baltic Noir, and you're willing to join me, aren't you?

"Well, so, what are the conditions for joining?

That's right, Demon King, we're talking fast.

Even if the Demon King doesn't tell me, I've decided to confront Bartonoir.

As someone who gave the same immortal life, we must face it.

The Demon King is fully aware of our position. On top of that, he asked me to help him because he was offering me a reward.

And you know I refuse a great reward. [M]

'Cause what are you going to say about the Demon Throne again with a reward?

So now it's the way you've been trying to demand something in return from me.

I decided to draw on the Demon King's intentions and ask for the support I needed right now.

"I know I can't officially send the Demon Army out. With that in mind, I'd like to ask you something. Send a hand-crafted Demon Clan to defend the Necromancer City."

Back to earlier.

If lords everywhere are being attacked, there is a possibility that danger is imminent for Mr. Meduria, the lord's deputy in the Dragon King's capital, and the city itself.

It would be best if we could stay, but this one is busy.

Then again, I would ask that elite units such as the Black-wing Demon Clan unofficially follow up on the escort. Then, it was accepted without difficulty.

As if waiting for a suggestion from me, a few more sides will leave.

Could this story have been a foreplay to induce me to make this statement?

No, I'm sure he is.

In the first place, I don't think we're going to discuss what we're going to do with the military by now.

Demon kings and neighbors are excellent demons. You don't respond like you're going around the back, do you?

From my mouth only, I propose the dispatch of a hand-worked demon tribe.

Dispatching troops act not as a national army, but as a defensive force to protect the Dragon King's capital.

If there is a raid in the Dragon King's capital, there is no choice but to crusade demon swordsmen and redcloth thieves.

Finally, security around the city is also important, so you can't help but interfere. Is that the demon kings' muscle writing?

Whatever it was, I was able to learn more about the trends in the North and how the Demon Kings handled it, and I was starting to realize the Bartonoirs' leap again.
