Chapter 9
After leaving demon king’s room, I finally got back the sensation of being alive.“I thought I would die, teacher”“Unexpectedly, you are a coward”Teacher got on my shoulders, while laughing violently.“The Demon Lord’s conduct is very overbearing but he is in fact very gentle. Without a significant error, he doesn’t normally punish”“I wanted to hear that before we met…”When I sulked, teacher patted my head without reservation.“I thought you would be knowing that much. You novice.”“sorry for being a novice….”
While we were having such conversation in the courtyard, a shishioni came out of the fog. It was second division commander Dogg I slightly put myself in guard.“Want to fight again?”But he denied.“It is vexing, but this time it is a loss for my great self.”Saying so, Dogg conceded the path.In the world of Demons, strength is the justice. Those, who don’t follow this law, don’t live long.“You are unexpectedly sincere”I crossed Dogg, while still being on my guard, but he didn’t even show any animosity.Instead, he said this.“Next time, I will crush you.”\n
“Still want to fight”I am amazed, but strong should accept challenge from anyone is the law.“It is fine, then next time”“Ou”Shishioni laughed in a weirdly disgusting face.
After coming out of the castle, teacher called me.“Don’t be careless. He is also an unique person among the shishioni.”“He seems to understand a little bit tactics”When I nodded, teacher continued further.“Also he had trained after understanding the strengthening technique. That agility is way out of class compared to other shishioni. He has less opening compared to his large build.”“May be due to that?”“Anyway, werewolves can understand better”Teacher patted my head without reservation while laughing happily.“ He may be a genius to leave his name in history as a shishioni but not as much as you. Because you are my student”Teacher got down from my shoulders after saying so.
“Then, as I have military duties, it’s goodbye for now.”“For the command of skeleton troops, what will you do?”“I told them to follow your commands, make a proper use of them. If something happens, I will be there immediately.”“Is that so…”It is disheartening if teacher is not there, also it is a little lonely, but teacher is a general in the demon army. It is useless. \n“Well, I will fulfil my duties of governing and defense of Ryunheight properly.”“Hmm, pay attention to movement of Mirarudia army. Also, don’t take the human nature lightly.”“Yes”When teacher waved her hands with a smiling face, I chanted the spell.
For now, I returned to Ryunheight. My room is the viceroy’s mansion. I am concerned if it was fine during my absence. I was absent for one hour only. But, in this world without a clock, I can’t be sure about time.“Oh, it has arrived”Seeing the large quantity of gold coin bags in a corner of room, I was once again surprised by the skillfulness of Demon King. Looks like, someone delivered with magic.Today also, there are many matters required to be paid for. I am grateful.“Alright, let me finish it in one go”When I turned back to human, I resumed the officework.
I took out the map, and thought about what to do hereafter.Mirarudia is an Alliance comprising of seventeen city-states. The senate holds a large power, but it doesn’t change the fact that it is a hodge podge of different parties.Currently, demon army is concentrating its entire force on conquering Mirarudia. Second division is in the middle of capturing the northern part of Mirarudia, while the third division is capturing the southern part.We have already captured three towns in the north and two in the south.
“The second division is rushing ahead…”By the way, that town Dogg of second division had captured is not even a proper town, it was just a mining town. It was not counted in this.Except for this kind of cities, the second division had also assertively captured essential strategic locations. It feels like the person in charge of second division is acting violently.Well, those would only kill and destroy. If that is fine, then we could also do so.
Then, the problems comes here, that is movement of Mirarudia allied army. \n“All the leaders of Radiant Church, Stillmoon Church and also from other indigenous faiths.”
