Chapter 268: The Six Nation Conference +1
The Varguard city-state is located in the middle section of the Demon Continent. Here, the rulers of the six nations of the Demon Continent gathered. Succubus Queen Fraal who governs Accuros, Devil King Gandalf who governs Rhodes, Bearkin Beast King Guzhr who governs Varguard, Oni King Jairu who governs Schimihazaar, Lionkin Beast King Ryvar who governs Atropolis.
Members who rarely gather together had assembled.
Even the two Beast Kings that do not possess the spirit of cooperation had made an appearance, though with persuasion from the three rulersー Guzhr, Fraal, and Gandalfー, but this was likely because they were wary of a new power appearing in the Demon Continent. Moreover, that power could potentially become an enemy.
「So, what is that human male? Ain’t he just takin’ pretty ladies around?」
When I was referred to, the Lion Beastkin man who was probably King Ryvar of Atropolis made a pass at Sophia and Maria perhaps because he could not stomach me being here.
The rulers of the nations, their escorts, and three Prime Ministers were participating the conference held in a large conference room.
Sophia, Maria, and I were participating there too, but just as we had initially expected, while there were no problems with Queen Fraal, King Gandalf, King Guzhr, and King Jairu, the two Beast Kingsー King Ryvar and King Deegaー pointed piercing gazes at me.
「Ryvar, stop lowering even our dignity with your words and actions.」
「Heh, though we’re kindred Beastkin, your head is obstinate, Guzhr.」
「Even your brain is muscle.」
「What did you say!? You bastard, you askin’ for a fight, Deega?!」
The three Beast Kings turned the atmosphere into an explosive situation.
「Stop it, if you are going to fight then do it outside!」
Devil King Gandalf scowled at King Deega and King Ryvar with his deep voice.
「Let’s not let it get to that, please. Did we not come today to meet?」Điscover new chapters on n0ve(l)bin(.)com
The internal organs of the Trolls and Cyclops are parts that can be used as material for restorative medicine using alchemy, but unfortunately, there were no alchemists in the countries of the Demon Continent.
「We have our reasons, and we chased them to this continent because of it, so we intend to capture the dungeon, and shut down the remnants of Sydnia, including the Evil Spirit.」
When I said so, Beast Kings Ryvar and Deega laughed scornfully.
「Hmph, you all have a lot on your shoulders, don’t you?」
「I will personally lead my elite troops to destroy the dungeon.」
「No, I will do it.」
Looking at King Deega and King Ryvar compete with each other from the side, King Gandalf made a proposition to me.
「Iruma-dono, it is much easier for you to move independently. As such, I believe our countries should dispatch a select few elite dungeon capturing units as well.」
「Fumu, that’s a good idea. I don’t think we could cooperate with each other. It would be ideal for each country to send out an elite unit, and immediately destroy the dungeon.」
When King Jairu supported King Gandalf’s proposal, King Guzhr also nodded, and Queen Fraal showed approval.
「If we can move freely, then I’m ok with it too.」
「Same here. I’ll be the one to destroy that dungeon though.」
King Ryvar and King Deega also appear to have agreed, so it disbanded after deciding on the day and time of the operation.
And so, in addition to our party, the six countries of the Demon Continent would dispatch elite dungeon capturing units.
Surprisingly, the rulers of the six nations were participating in their respective elite units. They were the strongest power in their respective countries, so to them, it was only natural.
