94 90 On behalf of someone (1/2)

Another side

Now, Evvia, let's hear the report.

”Is

In the office of the president of MAOcompany the presence of the president of this company and the demon king made his usual genial smile and listened to the report of the demon woman in the entourage.

I have dispatched the Demon King and the Immortal King to the Mushroom King's dungeon, where the mother body of the Evoluator is believed to be located. It is estimated that the Onion King will be in the vanguard and the Immortal King will be in the rear, reaching the deepest part of the dungeon in three days.

”Yeah, it's good to see you're doing well. I hope you'll be able to take them down safely, because it would be a disaster to have that thing rampaging in your belly.

Although he says he's praying, his defeat is already a given for the demon king.

If there is a difference, it's only the difference in the degree of damage, which is not within the range of what the demon king expects.

Although he has faith in his subordinates, he gives them advance information to capture the dungeon and deploys the most appropriate force to deal with it.

If this fails, it means that either those two are incompetent or something happened to change the Demon King's expectations.

So what's on his mind?

”So, did you find the old man?

We found an architectural structure that looks like a research facility, from which we started to investigate and found several noblemen. Details here.

”Hmmm, you've been using this one.

The demon king looks through the documents at a speed that makes you wonder if he's reading the report that's been compiled, and he spills his opinion that he's not what he expected.

However, the demon king sees the shadows lurking behind the information, and, as if playing chess with an old comrade, he runs through the information in his head, taking a few seconds to see if it's possible to hurt his opponent's stomach from here.

''Well, I think we can all guess who conspired behind the scenes, and these noblemen are probably the ones who got their tails cut off.

Yes, I sent soldiers to suppress the evidence, but the destruction was already done.

Well, if you had left the evidence here, it would have been easier to get your head off. Oh well. There's no point in complaining about what's done, just order some shadows to continue investigating and we'll be done with this story. These stupid noblemen should just confiscate the property and get rid of them without a trace.

But you think that there is nothing more you can do with the contents of the report you were given and that it's only harassment at best.

So you decide it's a waste of time to waste any more time.

But I'll make sure they get what they deserve. We dragged out that thing. I'm sure he was prepared for that as well.

But the demon king won't let this lame treatment end there.

Evvia, how do you think I should make it up to you?

”As you wish.

With this event, the Demon King's faction has lost a general who is the administrator of the dungeon.

It's obvious that it will take a lot of time to fill it.

More than anything else, the demon king is calm and angry after losing his trusted subordinate and vows to take revenge.

There's not a shred of forgiveness on his face as he plans to avenge his subordinate's disappointment.

Evvia, who follows his heart, bows her head quietly without replying.

Later, eight barons and one count will be decapitated for treason.

The demon king, who is trying to do it, just smiles quietly and quietly.

”For now, let's get rid of the move that's been inserted in your belly. Then we'll talk.

Another side END

Side Tanaka Jiro

A break in the dungeon is naturally far from the word quiet.

The sounds of the battle between the evoluators and the demons that intercept them, which are added from time to time, are louder than those of a bad live concert hall.

Even in the midst of such a noise, the demon is still at its own pace, or perhaps it is the demon that goes out to the front line to slaughter the enemy as if it were going to the bathroom, just as if it were drinking.

At noon on the third day of the march, I built up a position and marched on, and by the time I reached the front of the last boss, the noise became a lullaby, and I had blended in with the army to the extent that the killing spirit directed at me was a wake-up call.

It may sound good to say that I had mastered the ever-present battlefield, but the reality is that the schedule was so hard that if I couldn't do it, I would collapse from overwork.

What do you think, Jiro, about our battlefield?

”It's the worst kind of fun,

”You've grown up enough to be sarcastic!　You were fine at first, but then you went quiet!

But I didn't break down mentally because of Instructor Kio.

The more we fight together, the more we learn, the more we absorb, the stronger we become.

If the goal is in front of you, you'll give it your all, even if you're still far from your back.

You pause to polish your mineral tree and wonder how to respond to your instructor's words, but you come to the conclusion that it's better to be honest with him.

If you are thrown into a place where you are going to die many times, you can reopen it. Otherwise, I would have just died. I can't tell you how many times I've had to slay the enemy because I thought you were the one I was going to kill.

”Hey, you know what, does that help?

”Totally.

This instructor put me in an environment that made me want to call him an ogre.

I couldn't get revenge on the culprit, so I took it out on him, but still couldn't reach the demon, as I replied immediately.

It's not as if it's completely useless, but if you ask me if it can still be used to inflict a fatal blow on an instructor, I'll shake my head.

I still can't imagine cutting it off.

The fact is that you haven't come to that stage yet.

The more you climb, the more you realize how strong you are.

You will!

The instructor smiles cheerfully and has a virtue in his hand.

I envy you that you have the luxury of being able to have a battle going on just a hundred meters away.

The attitude that the battlefield is the place for ogres makes me want to sigh.

Even now the ogre who came back covered in blood is drinking heavily.

I don't mind the sight as much as I did at first, but the desire to sleep in a peaceful room is growing stronger and stronger.

It ends today.

But not next time.

You will be able to find a lot more than just a few of them.

”The wolverine is a general of the demon king's army. I also appreciate your strength.

”Are you stronger than your instructor?

”Do it head-on, do it ten times and I'll win ten times.

This is neither a joke nor a laughing matter.

In a pure contest of strength, the instructor assured me that he would win, but he put a condition that it would be head-on.

That means if you deviate from that condition, you can lose.

”As an individual, he is the least strong among generals. But his strength isn't in fighting. His strength is in breeding. Even if he's not strong, his children will come for my head. Even if it's only a blow that can shave off a layer of skin, he'll deliberately create dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of individuals who can shave that skin. Otherwise, you can't become a general in the Demon King's army!

That's why, the instructor speculates, the Evoluiter may have also targeted the Mushie King.

A general who boasts of strength not as an individual, but as a troop, may in a way be one of the strongest in forming an army.

Raising a soldier takes time.

But for the Mushikoku, the conditions are lighter than for other armies.

It has the ability to deliberately produce ideal soldiers.

That means no reduction in force at low cost.

You can assemble a large, if not infinite, force, which alone is a threat.

But that's only with reason. That man has more sense than I do. I was expecting much worse traps to come this far, and they didn't. They just kept adding more of them and came at me. They're licking it.
