In the Jiol Forest Kingdom royal villa, there were three figures emitting sharp atmospheres.
One was the captain of the Jiol Forest Kingdoms First Protection Chivalric Order, Zekwell.
One was the prided hero of the Jiol Forest Kingdom, Luuty.
One was the Zadark Kingdoms Eastern General, Fainell.
Among them, two of themLuuty and Fainell were glaring at each other.
Move out of the way, Fainell.
Theres no way I can let you run loose as you are now.
Fainells gaze was cast onto Luutys bow.
That bow was a sacred treasure that Fainell had seen several tis in the pastThe Arslys Bow.
The Arslys Bow, which Luuty had received from the God of Wind, was a weapon that turned Luutys own magical power into arrows and fired them.
With it being possible to fire an amount of arrows that was close to infinite if Luuty were to use it, it possessed might appropriate of its na of being a sacred treasure.
To begin with, what are you so angry about? Even though the fact that they drew their weapons is also a declaration saying that they are resolved to defeat or be defeated.
From Fainells perspective, the thing that was going on at the conference location was simply that the other king had challenged Vermudol to a fight, and that Vermudol had accepted it.
How the result of the fight would turn out would be their own responsibility. If one picked a fight with the intent to kill, its only natural to be ready to be killed, that was an absolute logic to the Mazoku.
This isnt that kind of problem! Move out of the way, and if you dont!
L, Luuty!
Zekwell hurried to stop Luuty who tried to ready her bow.
For Zekwell, he didnt want let Luuty die here.
Above all, he also had a hunch that it was probably already too late.
As part of the Protection Chivalric Order, it was a state where he could be said to have abandoned his duties, but to Zekwell, he didnt have the resolve to risk his life in that situation.
Dont get in my way, Zek! Beside, whyre you also doing this!
Watching them like that while folding her arms, Fainell then noticed sothing and turned her gaze to the air.
And then, in the next instant, in between Fainell and Luutys group, two figures appeared.
Hohou, so this is the thing called Transfer Magic.
Yeah. Mankind might not be familiar with it though.
Seeing those two, Luuty and Zekwell were astonishedand Fainell moved her eyebrows looking puzzled.
Sa
Sarigan, -sama?
The man that was cheerfully talking with VermudolHe was without a doubt the King of the Jiol Forest Kingdom Sarigan.
Wh, whyno, so you were safe?
Ahh, Ive worried you, havent I. No, more importantly
When Sarigan said that, he took Zekwells hands.
What was expressed on his face, was deep fondness.
In the negotiations earlieryou were the only one that calmly focused on the situation. And despite that, I the king made such a blunderI am extrely embarrassed.
Eh, ah, no
Wh, what isgoing on?
Zekwell and Luuty were bewildered.
However, when Luuty went *Ha* and ca back to her senses, she brought out a crystal ball from a corner of the room.
King, please forgive for my rudeness. But by all ans, use this
Fumu, a Reveal Crystal huh.
Sarigan took what Luuty held out into his hands.
A Reveal Crystal was a magic item that possessed the ability to display a persons status.
It possessed an effect similar to the Status Confirming Magic that the Hero and Demon King used, therefore regardless of if they were Human or Majin, it was sothing that was widely used.
Luuty was asking him to use the Reveal Crystal, and do an identity verification to show he was the king.
Well, that is a justified demand. I wont think of it as rudeLets see.
When Sarigan poured his consciousness into the Reveal Crystal, his status erged within the crystal.
Na: Sarigan
Race: Sylphid
Rank: C
Occupation: Jiol Forest Kingdom King
Equipnt: Kings Ring
Kings Clothes
Technical Skill: None
Bad Status: None
How about it, Luuty. Am I, the the real thing?
Y, yesTheres no mistake. However, in that casewhy?
Umu, as embarrassing as it is, my eyes were clouded with prejudice towards MazokuAnd Vermudol-dono, eliminated that.
Hearing those words, Luuty felt an intensely uncomfortable feeling.
That place shouldnt have been in a situation where it was possible to eliminate prejudices.
In the talks this ti, it was a talk where there was no loss for us. The Zadark Kingdom side said that they would lend their strength to the defense of our country, and with fearing being slandered as a traitor in the afterlife, he went as far as proposing the idea of creating the visage of being forced to obey from being annexedFor to have turned blades towards him despite thatI am ashad of myself.
Seeing Sarigan hang his head, the inside of Zekwells head was filled with question marks.
Was this, really the sa king from earlier?
The Reveal Crystal could only display the truth. In other words, this Sarigan was the real deal.
In that case, what in the world is this difference in attitude from earlier?
K, King.
What is it, Zekwell.
The other generals and imperial guardswhat happened to them?
Was what he was seeing an illusion or sothingthinking sothing like that, Zekwell asked that to Sarigan.
When he did, Sarigan closed his eyes looking saddened.
They beca sacrifices to my foolishness. With things turning out like this, I had thought that there was no other choice but to apologize to them with this life of mine but
That would be troubling. For the king to have died due to my coming here, as expected, that would be on a level where finding opposition within the country wouldnt be a joke.
That is what Vermudol-dono said. He cannot let die.
Also, it is troubling for you to do sothing like suddenly do suicide by the sword. My magical power has a limit to it.
FufuIf I were to make any more debts to youI wouldnt be able to repay it.
Hearing this conversation, Zekwell slowly swayed and crumbled down.
He was unable to understand what the king was saying at all.
Even though he should have been talking about the incident that occurred in the royal palace just a little while ago.
Why was he saying sothing like that.
No, to begin with, why didnt he show that attitude and understanding earlier?
Those emotions were running about within Zekwell.
Vermudol.
What is it, Luuty.
While keeping her hand on her bow, Luuty asked a question to Vermudol.
Youwhat did you do to the kingto Sarigan-dono?
What do you an by what?
Please dont play dumb with . The fact that nothing appeared on the Reveal Crystal ans that it isnt so type of brainwashingJust what in the world did you do to the king!
LuutyYou must calm down.
Sarigan stepped in front of the exasperated Luuty.
Vermudol-dono rely, he simply released .
Released?
From his way of thinking towards Mazoku, from his fixation on the frawork called mankind, from the ties and lingering discomforts of the past, from animosity. Incidentally, even todays portion of all thatAhh, also from religious views. They were eliminated all at once.
Luuty ruminated on the words that Vermudol said with a lighthearted toneand thought about it.
Any one of those things were sothing that couldnt be made to change in such a short ti.
Especially for Sarigan, who had personally experienced the war between the Hero Ryuuya and the Mazoku, it shouldnt have been possible to change his way of thinking towards the Mazoku.
What did Vermudol do?
It wasnt brainwashingWhat about an unknown magic that only the Mazoku had?
She thought of that possibility, but Luuty imdiately denied it.
No matter what kind of magic it was, if it was sothing that sullied the person in question, the Reveal Crystal would detect it.
By the way, Sarigan-dono. Although its a cooperative relationship, there are also so unclear points regarding the actual war potential. And even in regards to the Royal Palace Imperial Guards, although they were the ones that first laid a hand on , I also have the mistake of killing them. During the ti until you find replacents for them, I can dispatch substitute personnel if you so desire butHow about this, including the talks about thatI have made preparations to accept an observation of my country by your countrys delegation.
Fufu, youre too hasty, Vermudol-dono. Its customary practice for this sort of stuff to start with an exchange of docunts to conclude with a contract.
While feeling an eeriness from the talk that was progressing amicably, Luuty frantically thought about things. When she did, she noticed how Fainell was looking at her.
What is it, Fainell.
I just thought that you looked really dissatisfied.
No matter how I think about it, this isnt a joyous situation.
Going *Fumu*, Fainell nodded.
In other words, that kings change bothers you, right?
Could it beDo you know the cause of it!?
While being a bit overpowered by Luuty who pressed her for an answer, Fainell vaguely nodded.
W, wellEven if you ask that. Demon King-sama said it, didnt he?
He said it you sayA persons sense of values isnt sothing that be so simplychanged
After having said that much, Luutys eyes opened wide.
Grabbing Fainells clothes, Luuty squeezed out her words.
Could it be. Can he do it? Can the Demon King Vermudoltouch on the Life Seed?
The Life Seed is the source of existence that the God of Life Philia was said to have planted.
That seed that could be said to be the core of all life, it could also be called the soul itself.
No, I dont know about that Life Seed and such.
I can do it.
Vermudol, who was pleasantly chatting with Sarigan, answered like that without turning around.
Well, I cant do anything that significant though. Since the seeds protective wall was too strong, it felt like a majority of my magical power was going to be taken away just cleaning off the gri that was clinging onto it.
Looking at Vermudol who muttered as expected of a work of a GodLuuty beca speechless.
That, was dangerous.
That wasnt a power that should be allowed to be left alone.
It wasmuch too dangerous.
Whywould you tell about that?
Luuty, its because you are wise in the true aning of the word.
When Vermudol said that, it was then that he turned to Luutys direction for the first ti.
Once you know the truth, you will definitely co to this side. I told you because I am convinced of that.
Vermudol expressed a thin smile.
