92 – Demon King (1)

Unlike the outside, which had a terrible atmosphere of a battlefield, the inside of the building had a newly built atmosphere.

By the way, the shape of the familiar design in a different meaning stood out.

It’s not the way humans use it, it’s the design that demons prefer.

I felt their own culture.

“Who built the building?”

“I heard that it was built together with the demons.”

“Do demons have feelings like that?”

To the average person, it might seem a bit surprising.

I’ll think of demons as monsters who are crazy about slaughter and struggle.

Actually, that’s not wrong.

Starting from low-level demons who do not have reason properly, to intermediate-level demons are monsters that fit this general perception.

However, it is different from the upper level demons. They can have thoughts, and even become warlocks that require a high level of logic.

Of course, it was not an area that would be of great interest.

For a while, an even more important issue appeared in front of his eyes.

Just as the envoys of the kingdom gathered and moved, the envoys of the Demon King’s army were also moving rumblingly on the other side.

What is certain is that they have horns that prove that they are heteromorphic beings different from humans, and there are often those who do not even have such traces.

Among them, there was one who stood at the center.

Most of them are familiar faces.

I saw someone I knew well.

I’ve been curious about it several times, but I couldn’t see that my curiosity was completely answered.

I closed my eyes deeply and felt confused as I felt the two emotions fighting each other.

The complete hatred that screams to kill me right away and the unstable feelings of wanting to hear even a little story.

Why do I hate her completely and not hate her?

Did the memories I had with her in the past shake my emotions?

In the midst of such conflict, the Demon King opened his arms and smiled first.

On the outside, it seems questionable whether the heinous name of the devil would suit him.

The only thing that distinguishes her from being a typical beauty and not human is the black horn on her head.

Everyone was amazed by it.

I couldn’t have imagined that the Demon King would be such a beauty.

“Welcome. Humanity’s envoys.”

“Nice to meet you. Demon King.”

The crown prince was a bit embarrassed, perhaps seeing the demon king with his own eyes for the first time, then cleared his throat and responded to the demon king’s greeting.

The atmosphere at first was not heavy.

No matter how much the demon in front of you is the demon who will destroy mankind, if you look like that, your guard will naturally be released.

Besides, she did not even have the sense of intimidation possessed by transcendentalists like the sword master.

When the demon king extends his hand to the crown prince, the crown prince also grabs the demon king’s hand with a trembling expression.

In the meantime, the demon king’s gaze turned to me.

I was feeling a bit more complicated.

In his madness, he had only a vengeance, but looking back now, it was clear that there was some hesitation.

But he shook his head.

After all, I have no reason to forgive her, and there is no reason not to kill the demon king who will destroy the world.

I held my heart firmly and confidently faced the gaze she was giving me.

The Demon King seemed to be muttering something, but I couldn’t hear it because it wasn’t close.

It’s a while to chat.

For a peace treaty, working groups will begin detailed negotiations.

And if they make a treaty, mankind will no longer have to suffer from the endless rain of monsters.

That will be the crown prince’s achievement.

Although a complete judgment has not yet been made.

Should the peace treaty be broken in order to prevent the restoration of the crown prince’s political position?

Or should a peace treaty be accepted for the sake of human stability?

Think in two ways.

“I like it.”

After a brief welcome, the demon king returned to his seat and said.

The Commander-in-Chief asked the question back.

“Did you like Undead?”

“Yeah, haven’t you seen it too?”

The Commanding King nodded.

How could he, the master of black magic, be unaware of the special condition of the Undead?

“He’s basically a warlock, but at the same time he has a magic circle. Realistically impossible, but made possible.”

“If you just join the Demon King’s Army, it will help.”

“Even if you only use it as a spy, its usefulness is great. It’s similar to the cardinal we planted.”

The Demon King rolled his head and came to one conclusion.

“Recruit the Undead.”

“Are you able?”

“There are not enough balances to use for this treaty to hang on to the balance. So it is unknown whether we can recruit them.”

The King of the Dead nodded as he was unsure of the possibility of recruiting.

“Then, do you have any other options?”

“I’ll make him an offer he can’t refuse.”

At her thoughts, the King of Death deeply bowed his head.

The Death King follows her like a shadow.

“You have to decide.”

After a brief conversation, we gathered in a corner where no one would come.

Because people will tell you things they shouldn’t hear.

Swordsman, who had spoken the first word, continued his speech afterwards.

“Whether to overturn this meeting or not.”

“Should it be possible?”

“I bribed the executives. You can drag on the negotiations, or you can throw them over with unreasonable conditions. As long as you make a decision here, you can do anything.”

Everyone nodded at the swordsman’s meticulous plan.

…I was ignorant and planned to ruin the meeting by even quarreling with the demon king, but the Sword Master prepared a way to upset the meeting in a more natural and better way.

“Again, there is no right answer. If the talks are overturned, the fall of the crown prince will be certain, but numerous casualties in the north will continue, and if the fact of the bribe is revealed, I will also take responsibility. Instead, the Crown Prince will maintain his firm position.”

In a way, the Sword Saint had to take responsibility for this.

Wang Gaya would unconditionally investigate the reason for the meeting, and it was certain that the fact that the swordsman had bought it would be revealed in the process.

I didn’t want the swordsman who helped me a lot to take a hit.

I brought out the original plan I had in mind here.

“Would I rather ruin the meeting?”

“Details in what way?”

“If you attack the demon lord, naturally the meeting will be overturned.”

The Crown Prince said in advance that the Demon King made a promise to never attack.

If that restriction is violated and an attack is made, the summit will of course collapse.

“You’re saying you’re going to risk your life and break the meeting? But that’s not a good plan. I can’t guarantee what the demon king will do.”

“…not really.”

Nod.

In the end, there was no right way.

The best thing to do is to sign a peace treaty.

No matter how much the crown prince regained real power, that was the best side.

“Then it would be right to conclude a peace treaty, right?”

“Do you think that would be better, to overturn the meeting in this atmosphere? I don’t think you can imagine.”

Except for the Sword Saint who left me to judge, Raeli and Fran felt reluctant to overturn the meeting.

It seems that they felt something as they looked at the battlefield and the soldiers who were suffering.

Asher is still a sunflower.

“I… I’ll leave it to you.”

“I see.”

There are already two or two people who want to leave the decision to me.

And I looked at the last person left.

The warrior kept his mouth shut and fell into trouble.

“What I’ve seen is soldiers who have lost a leg, lost an arm, and are in pain.”

In the mansion, in addition to the soldiers who made the mark, those who survived the injury also stayed.

The warrior saw it.

I didn’t feel any emotions.

In fact, perhaps because he lived through the Great War, he was insensitive to the degree to which someone was killed or injured.

However, it seems that he made the hero feel the need for peace besides them.

The warrior bowed his head and said.

“I want to give those soldiers peace.”

“is it.”

I also thought about one thing while chewing on her thoughts.

Anyway, I couldn’t see the peaceful atmosphere that the demon king wanted for mankind as bad as it was.

Because it gives the warriors and the warrior party time to grow.

The problem is that even warriors have time to grow, and the devil must have aimed for that.

If only that part is well cared for, and if only the crown prince who will take the real power is well in check, there will be no problem even if the peace talks are successful.

And it is also important to walk a path similar to the future before the return.

If too many things change, my memories may become meaningless.

It’s been a long time since a lot of things have changed.

When I was about to make that judgment, there was a being who came to me.

In that familiar energy, I pause for a moment.

Asher, who read my confused mind, was the first to ask.

“…what’s the matter?”

“come.”

I don’t know why she’s coming here, but she must have some intentions.

It is a being that moves with many intentions in one action.

I look at her as she marches directly to the empty room in the corner.

A beauty with two horns on her head.

Her good looks surpassed her salary.

Even if I, who was somewhat familiar with it, stared at it, others quietly admired it.

His thin, ebony-like hair swayed.

The demon king looked at me and smiled deeply.

Same as back then.

Infinitely infinite crush.

And a seemingly bottomless favor.

He fooled others with it.

It was the devil’s characteristic to approach him with such kindness.

“Are you Argal, the talented person who pushed out the hero and took the top spot in the academy?”

“…What do you want, Demon King?”

The Demon King just smiled at my uneasy attitude.

“I’m here to give you a present. If you’ve done a great job, there should be something in return.”

“What does it have to do with you entering the academy at the top?”

“Now, wait a minute, Argal, no matter how much…!”

Fran was horrified to see me boldly step forward.

No matter how many enemies they may be, the demon lord is the leader of a group.

To be honest, it’s the same as the king of a country when you look at the rank.

He didn’t show even the slightest respect for such an opponent, so it was an act that he had nothing to say even if his head flew off.

But I also noticed.

The one standing next to the Demon King was the Commander-in-Chief.

On the outside, he was a good-natured old man, but inside he was a monster that could not be defeated.

Even if it was such a monster, the King of Death didn’t particularly respect his dignity.

So it’s just going out.

Besides, the demon lord also had that kind of personality.

Still, the Demon King faced me with a friendly attitude.

I still don’t know what you want.

She is very unconventional and says she will listen to anything.

“I’ll do everything I can for this meeting. How is it?”
