Volume 3 - Epilogue

Epilogue

At the time when the wings of light spread out in Faltra City’s North District──

Alicia Cristella was inside of the large army of Demonic Beings.

Surrounded by those strange-looking beings of various sizes, they were on standby with the intent of attacking Faltra City.

Edelgart was next to her.

「Ohh, Krebskrum-sama is～!!」

She raised a voice of delight, and those in the surroundings were in agreement with her.

「Just as～, Alicia said!」

「No, I simply did what I was instructed to do by Priest-sama. I made a person important to Krum-sama, and then devised a plan that would destroy that person.」

「Difficult～, thing……Incredible」

「For me, who is a weak person of the Races, I can only do this much……」

「If Demon King-sama, revived～, everyone can receive magical power! Even wounds can be healed! Can win against Races? Can win!」

Hearing Edelgart’s words, the Demonic Beings raised their voices.

The light wings that appeared in Faltra City stabbed the heavens.

A magic formation developed in the sky.

That itself is proof of Krebskrum-sama’s existence! is what the Demonic Beings clamored.

Alicia’s set up had succeeded.

Her ambition was being carried out.

She calmly waited for the moment of delight.

The Demonic Beings were waiting for Faltra City’s barrier to be broken.

If Demon King Krebskrum, who had awakened inside of the town, destroyed either the Magician’s Guild or one of the barrier’s towers, the Demonic Beings would rush into the town.

Faltra City would surely become the place of the festival that congratulated the Demon King’s revival.

There were many Demonic Beings that got on board with Edelgart’s proposition. It wasn’t just the 100 Demonic Beings of the Edelgart faction.

The Demonic Beings of the Baal faction had also come.

Ourou had also come.

The light wings had appeared. The magic formation that indicated the Demon King also spread out.

Just when would the barrier be broken!?

The moment of delight──

didn’t come.

Everything returned to silence.

Edelgart muttered 「Krebskrum-sama’s presence became smaller」, and Alicia discerned that her strategy had failed.

The one that drew near to where those two were first, was Ourou.

A gigantic owl that had grown a single horn and was flying in the sky raised a stern voice.

「What is the meaning of this? Demon King Krebskrum-sama’s light wings and magic formation have vanished?」

It was a tone that was criticizing them.

The Demonic Beings that were in the surroundings also started to blame Edelgart and Alicia.

The Baal faction thought about nothing but killing people of the Races. Once they understood that that was impossible, they quickly withdrew to the forest.
