Chapter 248 (1/2)

Meanwhile, at 【Xaous】, walking inside the castle with a rather gri to, was Aquinas, the head commander of the Demon Lord’s directly supervised, Cruel Division

His long criht as he walked hastily whileproper courtesy

He didn’t even notice the ad flushed expressions of theoblivious to such scenes

He was headed towards the office where a girl named Eveam whom he would protect above all else

As Aquinas arrived, he notified his presence by knocking on the door, and opened it once he got her permission to enter

“Hoh, seeht sleep Your complexion seems to have improved fairly”

When Aquinas saw the appearance of Eveaed her expression so, because her skin had a different glow compared to before

This however made Eveam look down shamefully and said,

“T-that’s why I said sorry about it last time! B-besides, I will properly sleep as I had been warned!”

“Umu, a fine answer”

To the nodding Aquinas, Eveam shook her head a little to clear away the heat from her flustered expression and heard about the details of his visitation

Yesterday, a bad news regarding 【Victorias】 reached 【Xaous】 She never expected for Avoros to take over the the human nation, much more, when the rumour was confirmed by her trustworthy subordinates

And Aquinas visited her office to ask if there was any new infor that matter

“I’ that matter”

“I see”

“Are you worried about so? …………Judom’s matters perhaps?”

“………”

“I heard that he was rebuilding the country from the bottom alone, but I don’t knohat becadom”

“Yes, I’m worried about that”

“I see But even if he was renowned the strongest in their nation…”

Although Eveam anxiously leaked such words,

“No, I don’t believe that man would have died from that”

“Aquinas”

“I’ve fought with hith of that man Even if that h his wisdom and power”

“…I see, if you say it like that then perhaps what you said ht be true”

Eveam expressed a relieved a smile on her face To be honest, Eveath

She only met him once in her childhood But Aquinas had a mortal cole seems to have built a mutual relationshi+p that considered each other as equal comrades

If Aquinas believed that Judoth

And so the matter about Judom came to an end, but then someone’s name surfaced in Aquinas’ mind

“Speaking of so Hiiro?”

“Eh?”

“Eh is not a proper answer It was Hiiro who forced you to sleep andyour body too much”

“M- else?”

“Fu, it’s just your iination”

But in reality, Aquinas is a little nudged about this matter He was actually a little jealous about Hiiro influencing Evea back then, so he couldn’t help tease Evea to Hiiro’s advices every now and then

“News about Hiiro you ask? Even though several days had passed already and not a single update co me worried!”

An amused smile irl frankly gru man

“Well, he’s probably fine despite not reporting about it And besides, can you i from such a place?”

“………not really”

“And I’ another unusual book he found over there, right?

“………very likely”

Eveained easily as surmised about Hiiro

“Besides, setting aside Hiiro, right noe have to dealthe Predecessor Demon Lord”

“……you’re right”

All of a sudden, both turned serious as the air around them became heavy

“World Domination… if we believe what that person said, then the huoes?”

“No, that’s not it 【Pasion】 was attacked, but they were not thoroughly destroyed while 【Victorias】 was in the e of this and made his priority to take over the human nation”

“Rather than took it, he obtained a country And he will no doubt rule over the humans from now on”

Eveam remained silent in face of Aquinas’ words Based on Avoros’ character, he would surely rule over the hu if he decided to kill those who opposed him

And eventually all the people will fall upon their fear of him and become submissive to his will

“What country do you think is his next target Aquinas?”

“It’s highly probable that ould be the last target as our ht now”

“……then, 【Pasion】?”

“Uan to mobilise over there”

“Wait a minute! Hiiro is over there you know!”

“I know, that’s why if they ever did ered Hiiro who is present over there, they are likely going to be crushed by him instead”

“……haa, whatever happens, Hiiro, please come back safely”

Although Eveam had a lot of insecurities, it seems she desired the safety of Hiiro the most

“Besides, Ornoth is over there as well”

“Now that you ht”

But even so, Hiiro was a big existence inside Eveas painted on her expression which ht of his dear friend’s safety
