321 gossip, the one lurking in the dark.

After the battle with the braves, I got busy in a different way.

Among the many tasks that needed to be done to revive the city, interact with the kingdom of Ringle, etc., I even glanced at the paperwork in the hall that I had converted into a study.

"Demon King, why don't you rest a little?"

"Don't worry. I manipulate time with witchcraft and sleep."

"Oh, well, that sounds fine"

……

I don't know, I think Ciel's reaction is slight.

I've been close to Kannagi since then.

"Get in."

"Excuse me."

It was Gillette, an assistant to the former First Commander of the Demon King's Army, who entered the office with a respectful trick.

He is an old demon tribe, but a man who has supported Nero.

Quickly glance at the material he holds as he attracts it by magic.

"After the demon army was dismantled..."

Is the content about the new organization to be created?

It is necessary to dismantle the forces for the war called the Demon King's Army and in the future to create an organization for the Demonic Nation that will provide autonomy for the city, a group that can be called the vigilante.

Instead of abandoning all means of combat, it is only as a means of self-defence against other attacks.

"Oh, and about the example, what's going on?"

"Ha, Lord Huluk is currently conducting research for practical use"

"Right. Don't fail to report it. ——— You can back off."

"Ha."

Put your arms together as you drop Gillette off.

The value that we, who lost the war, can show to the kingdom of Ringle or to other nations.

Needless to say, it would be nothing more than the presence of me.

♪ Lost knowledge ♪

It would also be possible to seek supplies from the human side as a condition of exchange by offering them in line with the magic techniques of this era.

"Only, in keeping with the technology of this era… but"

Anything more than that could trigger a fight if you do poorly.

I'm not going to do anything more to get myself into a fight than I have a promise to him, so I'm going to keep that line.

"Mm..."

"How are you?"

I feel signs of witchcraft and turn my hands to the corner of the office.

Using witchcraft and creating water in a hall painting, they move at will and change into mirror-like shapes.

"Ko, is this...?"

"Ciel, I need you to take your seat off for a moment."

"Oh, again?!?"

As soon as you look in the mirror after you magically transfer the upsetting Ciel, you will see the person who tried to communicate with you by magic - the figure of Falga the Divine Dragon.

What can I do for you? Farga. "

"... who would like to see your face?"

I laugh bitterly at Farga's evil state.

Well, I guess the fact that he's coming into contact with us on purpose means something's moved.

"Apparently, you got your tail out the way you expected."

"... what, it finally moved. Because... Was it Usat who showed up?"

'... oh'

Sighs as he deposits his back on the back of the chair.

Looks like I ran into Usat and his master, Rose, at the cemetery in the kingdom of Lingle.

Says the two healing wizards who sensed his signs ran off with wings as a result of the attack... but why can they cause such an overly funny situation?

"It must have moved because you're weak."

"I guess so."

Now I am deprived of 70% of my power.

Instead of being able to handle more than the full season, we have lost to Usat and his magic hasn't recovered yet.

"Did you tell the humans about this?"

In my words, Falga at the end of the mirror shows a frightening appearance.

'Say silly. That doesn't exist, it's only supposed to be a fantasy. The king of the kingdom of Lingle took it seriously.

I guess.

The king of that country would rather not believe it because he also knows Falga exists.

"I didn't know Hisago was sealing everything. But in the last few hundred years, I've been convinced of the unnaturalness with which there hasn't been a quarrel."

A demon is a creature that disrupts human malice.

Handle witchcraft to confuse people and cause battle.

Take in the fear created by it and use it as your own strength.

"I also knew he killed the vast majority of demons.... but I didn't know you had sealed and kept some of them alive... did you wake up recently too? '

"No, it won't be so different from when I wake up from the seal"

He's more of a sigh than he was, he's not even willing to fight me.

I can guess why those guys moved, and their purpose... but it's not like this one can move right now.

Especially in my case, if you move inadvertently, you'll distrust the humans.

"But Usat seems rather resentful"

"Is it your business?"

"Huh, what the hell"

Falga laughs with her nose at me.

"A demon is a fear-powered being. In today's world, which is considered a fantastic existence, instead of being able to exert its former power... you will also want to hold a grudge if you hear that it is being replaced for a human being who is not even a demon '

He deserves that Usat is feared by the devil and his compatriots.

It's worse to look so horrible to be called the devil in the first place.

“The healing wizard who beat me down, he was just as strong as a demon?"

Using it and reinforcing the impression of Usato-Devil, we were able to drag those who might be leaping in the shadows out onto the surface stage and confirm their existence.

... Well, I never thought it would be this easy to catch this one.

So you're saying that by now, there was a lot of fear going on with him?

"But what an interesting thing you've become. I didn't know giving fear was supposed to be the opposite result of being engraved with fear. Ha-ha-ha."

'... I can only say that they were bad. I checked my memory with Usat's cage hand, but the other person probably used magic that blended into the world itself'.

I didn't know you could even have wings, not just be conceited at the same time as a healing wizard called Rose.

Probably because they stared at me and disturbed my spirit, which only materialized for a moment.

If a disciple is a disciple, it would be strange for a master to do the same.

"He's really an indispensable man on the subject."

There are half a dozen possibilities for demons to move, but I didn't expect them to achieve any more.

This makes it easier to predict this one too.

"But one thing is, what was the devil trying to do in the cemetery of the kingdom of Ringle?"

"I can also think of simply the purpose of keeping an eye on Usat and his master..."

"Oh, you should consider other possibilities"

If it's called the devil and to monitor Usat, which threatens our very existence, that's fine.

But why did they show up in the cemetery more than anything else?

It could be just a coincidence, but if their purpose was something else, it might be troublesome inside.

"Farga, tell the kingdom of Ringle"

"What?"

Falga looking at this one with surprise.

Summarizing my thoughts, I say to him what needs to be done in the future.

"Uncover the grave. It's a tomb buried by one of the best men in the country."

'... I see. Is that what you mean?'

Many of the demons are reduced in number by hisago.

Then the first thing to do is increase the number of handkerchiefs.

If you do poorly, you could have a bad heart certificate from the Kingdom of Ringle side, but you'll still have to make sure.

---Because it's far better than being moved by a person who should have died.
