There was no outbreak of battle in the cetery; at the front of the troop, Bone Fra was sitting on the ground with Mason and a group of generals, drinking wine.
"Ah, indeed it’s good wine."
Bone Fra sighed, as the wine dripped through its hollow bones onto the ground where it sat.
"What the hell! Why are they chatting instead of fighting?"
Shami stared forward in confusion.
Mason laughed heartily, sitting next to several elderly people, holding a few scriptures in their hands.
"I didn’t expect you guys to know the language of the Skeleton Race."
Bone Fra looked at the troop in surprise.
"Of course. Our kingdom has had interactions with the Demon race, and over ti, scholars in the kingdom deciphered so of the languages of the demons. Fighting doesn’t solve problems, peaceful discussions suit us better."
Mason gestured to the elderly by his side, explained a bit, then turned to Bone Fra.
"Warrior Skeleton, why are you alone in this place?"
Bone Fra thought for a mont and answered truthfully.
"I was kicked out by the Demon King."
The elderly next to him translated.
Mason was silent for a mont. The language of demons was indeed a bit difficult to understand, the direct translation seed sowhat vague, but it seed to an that it was abandoned by the Demon King.
Shami was sowhat surprised.
Normally, only he, who has the special granted language pack, could understand the languages of humans and demons. Yet this group of people surprisingly used artificial ans through scholar decoding to forcefully break the demon language pack.
The Esper Kingdom does have so capabilities.
In front was an abandoned skeleton soldier. Mason’s expression changed slightly, sighing with a hint of lancholy.
"Skeleton Warrior, our kingdom used to be friendly with the Demon race, we don’t understand why the current Demon King wants to invade our kingdom."
"Eh?"
Bone Fra uttered in surprise, then began serious contemplation.
It didn’t understand political matters, but to appear intimidating, it pretended to understand.
"Just like you, it’s obvious you’re a brave warrior, yet this Demon King abandoned you here, how hateful, how hateful."
Bone Fra fell into thought.
"Indeed quite annoying, kicking soone out without any reason, like looting people’s property."
Mason had been quietly observing Bone Fra, discovering its persistent prejudice and resentnt towards the Demon King, he secretly smiled.
This was what they call an opportunity!
The special force led by Mason had a na: [Turncoat Division], as a vital unit of the Esper Kingdom, this division’s main responsibility was to induce individual defections from other forces internally, through persuasion, coercion, or surrender, thereby achieving the goal of reducing enemy personnel and exposing intelligence.
During Luwaka’s era, this force successfully persuaded the Minotaur Tribe under Luwaka, leading them to surround but not attack the entire kingdom.
"Skeleton Warrior, I feel saddened by your situation."
Mason gestured to his subordinates, who understood the signal and launched their attack.
"Yes, clearly having such a transparent body, yet falling to such a state. The Demon King is truly blind!"
"If it were in our kingdom, you’d surely be greatly valued, rising easily in ranks and granted titles."
"Even a good horse needs a discerning master to show its worth. This Demon King who abandoned you is simply a foolish ruler."
The experienced elderly around subtly hinted to Bone Fra.
Despite not noticing the implications in their words, Bone Fra was delighted hearing Shami getting criticized.
"Exactly, exactly. Even a strange race addicted to alien girl temptations might be into too, after all, I’m alien too."
"Where do you get that confidence, Bone Fra? Do you know what you’re talking about?"
"Black stockings, where are the black stockings?"
The topic beca strange and drifted far off, Mason quickly steered it back, spinning his eyes, looking at Bone Fra.
Although it was just an ordinary skeleton soldier, if they could recruit this skeleton soldier to their side, it would be crucial whether to place an inforr within the Demon race or gain information about them.
Letting the Demon King taste the feeling of being deserted was also the King’s directive.
"Skeleton Warrior, now that you are surrounded by my army, if you resist, it’s a dead-end, but if you feel underappreciated, the Esper Kingdom is willing to beco your second ho, offering countless growth opportunities for you."
Mason looked seriously at Bone Fra, launching his attack.
"Esper Kingdom has always treated demons with respect and tolerance, after Luwaka’s defeat, we even sheltered the Demon Envoy Bichu’er for a while."
"So you were also involved, huh."
Shami grumbled.
"I assure you that in Esper, you will live an imnsely lavish life."
"Endless power."
"Never-ending delicacies."
"Countless riches."
"Unending praises."
"Countless gifts."
"Endless prosperity and happiness year after year~!"
The surrounding soldiers suddenly appeared, encircling Bone Fra, expressing rich emotions through singing, offering extrely tempting conditions.
"Suddenly there’s a surrender performance by literary soldiers! Are they recruiting right in front of so openly? So this is the special force?"
Shami looked at Bone Fra, waiting for its reaction.
Bone Fra was startled for a mont, then raised its head and readily agreed.
