101-101-Dark Desire Attack

"128 years of St. King's history, red moon, 9th of the same day.

＜The Jediite Empire, First Magician's Office

What?

After receiving the intelligence officer's report, the sorcerer Garudi stood up, tapping the tabletop hard with both hands.

'The Vista Corps disbanded on its own accord. Although a few of them headed to the southwest plains, it seems that those who tried to go through the central square, the shortest route, have been stopped by the cavalry led by His Majesty the Emperor and ordered to wait.'

The sorcerer Garudi squeaks his teeth... or rather, his beak, in frustration at the last minute.

'You puppy and tiger Fuzzy!　Just because you have the unknowable backing of a prophet, doesn't mean you're going to get carried away.

Garoudi looked exasperated as he picked up his magic wand, which was propped up on the bookcase, and stepped over to the balcony railing.

'Let's go, I won't let them take any more credit for it!　The scum that have already escaped are fired immediately!　Those who don't want to lose their jobs, follow me!

Garoudi flew through the sky with his winged beastmen in tow, heading southwest, avoiding the center of the city.

But there is not a single cloud in the sky where there were dark clouds a moment ago, and it is so quiet that it is hard to believe that a battle is taking place outside the city.

''Don't tell me that the demon king's men have already retreated...''

If that was the case, then the women and children and those who could only wield swords would be able to defeat the Demon King's army with just a few men.

If that happened, all the country's efforts to expand its military and develop technology would be for naught.

When he was young, the capital of the Empire was full of ruffians, security was at its worst, and fighting and quarrels were an everyday occurrence as the various races maintained an equal hierarchy.

In order to rectify this situation, I persuaded the upper echelons of the military to lead those who had no power to do so... all in order to restore the glory of the "strong empire".

If people say that this is unnecessary after all this time, this country will be in turmoil again!

"We have to know what's happening now, and we have to know it now!　Hurry up!

As soon as Garudi shouted valiantly to everyone...

What the hell was that?

When the plains came into view after leaving the gates of the city, the sun's light was once again hiding and the surroundings were becoming dim.

However, the cause of this was not the dark clouds that filled the sky like earlier.

''The sky is cracking!

The darkness.　Don't tell me that's the Demon King's army...!

His men begin to fuss over the situation as darkness encroaches on the sky.

How pathetic!

Just as Garudi was about to turn around to silence him, he heard a snapping sound from the protective gemstone he was wearing.

In other words, that means it was shattered...!

"Something's coming!　Everyone drop immediately, get down and prepare for defense!　Hurry up if you don't want to die!

As Garoudi impatiently orders a retreat, his men rush to get off... but suddenly they are knocked down by "something"!

"Aaaaah!

Even though they weren't flying that high, it couldn't be that they were unharmed by being slammed into the ground, and the majority of them were rendered unable to fight by that blow.

Windburst!

While the others had been injured by the sudden surprise attack, Garudi shot wind magic into the ground on the spur of the moment and somehow managed to prevent them from crashing.

But even if he himself was unharmed, he could only be stunned while looking at the sky in the distance.

''.........Well, no way, that was it?

Out of his line of sight was the figure of a knight in jet-black armor that emerged from the darkness.

The knight then looked down at the ground from the sky and shouted in a loud voice.

''My name is Demon King Four Heavenly Kings, Darkness Dzire!　'People of the earth, now contend with me!

~~

Phew, glad you could make it.

The miasma of the miasma is a miasma that can be used to fight against the miasma of the earth.

It's not just a matter of time before you get to the point where you can get your hands on it.

The person at the front of the group that fell just now seems to be named Garudi.

It's a very good idea to have a good idea of what you're doing.

It's a good thing that the big idiot who leaked the information to his minions himself came out and fell into the dirt himself.

I see, that's the "guy who's hostile to Leopard".

It's just as well that we don't want to be interrupted by someone coming up here without good reason. I'm sure that that pee-pee bastard will be able to see the whole process of defeating this thing.

When I said provocatively to Dzire, who was still floating in the sky above me, he snickered while looking at me without getting particularly angry.

You are going to be able to find out what is going on in the world. I didn't expect a human to be so conceited.

I see that this guy himself didn't attack us on his own accord, but came under the orders of the Demon King.

However, I noticed that for some reason Elena is the only one who is tilting her head curiously while me and the Darkness Dzire are having such an exchange.

''Elena, what's wrong?''

"What?　

Yeah, I'm supposed to.

Although it's a bit hazy, I believe the black armor that fell to the ground in the world I once saw when Prince Laika, who changed to a wizard, defeated Dzire with lightning magic was designed like this.

But when Elena heard my reply, she looked puzzled and told me an extraordinary fact.

''Eh, because this person is........an angel?
