“…… This one has never written a letter like this before”
“Chief I, too, wish to believe that you’re innocent But you have conspired against me and attacked me in the past, have you not? In other words, you are not coer plans to be hostile against your highness”
“That is quite the pity I’m unable to believe you”
“……”
Ivar Lodbrok ground his teeth
(TL Note: I plan to stick with calling Ivar by the gender of the individual he’s currently possessing)
It was clear that he was upset He did have ry, after all
This person before hest people of authority He was the richest person in the demon world as well as the behind-the-scenes ruler of the free city of Niflhei asat my every command It becaive him so easily
“What does this one have to do in order to gain your highness’ trust?”
“Simply do a couple of favors for me”
“What kind of favors……?”
“First, I’d like to hire some soldiers”
It ritten on the anony to invade
Although it was still uncertain whether the letter was true or false, there was nothing bad about being prepared At the very least three thousand Yes, I wanted to be prepared with an army of at least three thousand soldiers
“I consider this to be a light request If it’s the ather three thousand men easily Do you not think so?”
“……Of course Your highness”
The other party had an expression as if he had chewed on shi+t
Oi, your e all over your face
Was he perhaps looking at me with contempt? Was that it Did he decide that he didn’t have to keep up appearances in front ofA pet that looked down on their oner had no use It seems I had to teach this vampire manners once more
“Lodbrok Do you perhaps dislike me?”
“…… That is not possible This one holds respect and loyalty for the Demon Lords in this one’s chest at all times”
“That is a relief I like you quite a bit as well I orried that it ht have been one-sided love One-sided love is only beautiful during one’s childhood But at this age, is it not vulgar to be caught up in such a thing?”
Ivar Lodbrok looked at ure out what I was talking about
I took so too ile strand of blonde hair
Ivar Lodbrok griain I like you quite a bit as well Except, not your elderly appearance but your original body Your delicate and female form I prefer that more”
“……!”
Ivar Lodbrok’s eyes treirl with blonde hair The hair that I had just pulled out was also blonde What could this ards to your body, I personally prefer your calves Your petite chest and the outline of your waist is also fine But I really do think that your calves are the best”
I smiled
“If you caress it carefully then you can feel both the firmness of your shi+n and the softness of your calves at the same time It felt like my hands would rance e from your skin almost made hness not promise not to touch this one’s ed shout
“This one had betrayed her highness Paihness had ordered! This one had protected your highness while sacrificing a firm executive! Then why……!”
“Do not misunderstand”
I spoke in a carefree tone
“We did notthat are mutually benificial However, our relationshi+p is a bit simpler than that Chief It’s absolute obedience”
“……”
“Kneel”
Ivar Lodbrok stiffened
I wonder if he wasn’t able to properly hearthat he was trapped in an old ed as well? This was certainly possible Do not worry I believed in respecting the elderly I’m a man as able to show compassion towards elders as entle tone, I ordered once more
“Kneel down, chief”
“……”
“Go on”
Ivar Lodbrok slowly bent his knees
I nodded
“Now coe dyed the old gentleman’s face
I couldn’t help but love whenever a person of powera delinquenttheir oays I almost wanted to praise the beauty of mankind out loud
Ivar Lodbrok crawled towards ht foot down against the old gentle action Ivar Lodbrok’s shoulders trehness”
“Please conduct yourself withbefore me I did not ridicule you the moment we met Normally and softly I treated you like an acco, and yet, did you not look atat trash?”
Press press
I pushed his head down further
Ivar Lodbrok’s nose touched the floor
“This is why co do you plan to leave me in an unrequited love? If you desire for nity first Do you understand?”
“This one will, most certainly keep that in mind……”
“Prepare the three thousand troops within 2 days”
I withdrew ather a bunch of random people, so I shall request for the best quality of soldiers According to the e, the invasion will happen in 10 days, so do hurry”
Ivar Lodbrok quickly brought his head back up
“Your highness Two days is much too short! At the very least, allow us a week…… no even if your highness were to give us half a month, it would be near impossible to hire three thousand soldiers of the best quality”
“What are you talking about? There are plenty of troops nearby”
“Pardon?”
“Are there not soldiers protecting Niflheim? I heard that the military force here was around 8,000 men Lend me some from there”
Ivar Lodbrok opened his mouth
It was a face as if he had just heard an unbelievable suggestion
“Your highness! Those are this city’s defenses!”
“And you are the actual ruler of Niflheim You can move the forces around as much as you please”
“Please understand! If the soldiers are gone then theNiflheim disappears with them Niflheim is a free city that is responsible for all the econoe misfortune will fall over the entire demon world If that were to happen while the Black Death is still running rampant……!”
“Whoa, whoa Calm down”
I stood from my chair
I lifted Ivar Lodbrok back up on his feet and tidily brushed all the dust off of his clothes Ivar Lodbrok, not sure how to react, was unable to say anything in response
“Of course there are er you’ll have to shoulder will also be large I understand everything I really do But regardless of all that, chief It is very unfortunate, but”
Finally, dusted Ivar Lodbrok’s shoulder
“That is your problem Not mine”
“……”
I smiled widely
Ivar Lodbrok was at a loss for words
“Ah I should point out that this hair is not fro when I respect you so much, chief? Do not worry”
“Pardon? Then where……?”
“I plucked the hair off of a dog that andering around the governor’s palace after playing with hi’s color and charm was quite refined As expected, if the owner is well off then even the pets live a life of luxury”
Ivar Lodbrok’s expression quickly changed
He must have realized that he had just ridiculed hi hair and was dumbfounded
That’s why you shouldn’t have retaliated so uselessly We could have happily gone off on our oithout having to upset one another I couldn’t understand the people who insisted on upholding their pride when they knew that they were obviously going to lose Are you apain on purpose? This is quite troubling that there are so many perverts in the world……
“Three thousand soldiers Highest quality I leave this within your hands, chief”
“……Yes”
“Oh, right I would also like for you to acquire sorinned
“This as well isn’t a very difficult task so you have no need to be worried It’s a task to find a single human Ah, while you’re at it purchase the finest bottle of wine for me”
“Whatever this one is ordered to……”
It see Ivar Lodbrok bowed his head It was cute because his drooping hair rese ears
The fact that he had a lot of wrinkles was a flaw, but oh well It’d be better if I just thought of it as raising a pet with a strong sense of pride I’d feel sorry if I shoved hiive him a reward later on Oh no I shouldn’t have a hobby like raising a pet……

Niflheim, Governor’s Palace
I could hear the sound of paper being shuffled
I wonder if I had been sweating throughout the night as my back felt wet I rubbeda report next to me on the bed
“Lodbrok?”
“Yes”
In response toif those were the reports from Lodbrok, Lapis Lazuli answered immediately
One week had passed since we had becoot across to each other rather well Should I say that our co to even regard her as my lover……
“How is it”
“The level of the information is favorable The total slave ion of Sardinia is 13 A them, the amount of slave markets that handle in slaves born frohness is looking for is registered in Pavia”
Lapis Lazuli took out a single document
I shook hs It felt as if she had applied sohtful scent emanated from her
“Olive oil?”
“It is Anatolia hness has the time to sexually harass this one, then please take a look at the report first”
“I do not wish to read words as soon as I wake up in theI’d appreciate it if you could read it out loud inbut the afternoon”
Lapis Lazuli let out a sigh
“This one thinks that it’s because of your highness that this one’s life cycle is being ruined Toosexual relations once This one advises your highness to lower 4 hours to 2”
“What am I supposed to do when htly pecked Lala’s bottom
“I do not have the tendency to sate my desires quickly In any case, it’s quite the problem that men these days do not kno to show consideration to women How pleasant it is to enjoy each others’ warmth and……”
“This one knows It is already well-known for this one that your highness is a pervert beyond iination, so this one does not need another lesson”
Lapis Lazuli resigned herself and began to read the report
“—Laura De Farsene Ever since her birth as an illegitimate child in Duke Farsene’s fah it hasn’t been revealed on who her birth mother is, there is a rumor that she was born after the duke had raped one of the servants”
“Hh as I listened to her talk
Lala had no useless fat It was most likely because she was born as an outcast and spent her childhood starving Roae cans Being cursed at for being a half-breed Having stones tossed at her constantly
……I should have killed that old woret it
“It seeed childhood”
Lapis Lazuli continued
“Not only theher bedroos did not consider Miss Farnese as a part of their family, and even the servants treated her as if she did not exist…… Your highness? Are you listening?”
“Of course I’h, this one thinks your highness has only been touching this one’s thigh since awhile ago”
“I don’t knohat you’re talking about You’re just seeing things”
“……This one will continue reading”
Laura De Farsene
She was an ieon Attack>
Sionist, she was an influential individual of that era, but if one were to point out a difference, then it was that she pushed the world into terror instead of hope
There was a slight complicated political reason that was involved behind this
The <Dungeon Attack> protagonist, the hero, was affiliated with the ‘E’ On the other hand, Laura De Farsene worked for the nation known as the ‘Kingdo to decide as the true ruler of the entire continent, started a massive war
There was a chance that, compared to the Demon Lords, the aher In other words, for the protagonist you could say that she was an opponent farthan the Des that would happen 15 to 20 years in the future
In the current ti irl
What was there to hide?
I wanted to snatch this girl as fated to becoeneral in the future in advance
Since it see to invade fro troops, I wanted to recruit a commander at the same time Kill two birds with one stone
Lapis Lazuli finished reading the report and spoke
“Your highness There is sohness have an interest in a child from the human race?”
“There is no particular reason Simply that this child harbors the most hatred towards humans”
I told her a lie nonchalantly
There was no special reason It would beif I were to answer her honestly and say ‘It’s sooing to grow up to be the greatest general in the continent’ I could only dramatize a reason and tell it to her
“……Hatred, is it?”
“Yes Think of it while in that girl’s position She was born as an illegitimate child and spent her days forever trapped in her room She received abuse from the people ere supposed to be her family She was avoided by even the servants And now that the family has fallen into ruin, Laura De Farsene has plu sold at a irl’s irl earnestly desire for? Would she not be nourishi+ng her hatred towards humans?”
“……”
“Towith hatred more than anyone else I need a child ould sell her own soul to the devil if it e on the humans Laura De Farsene, an individual just to my preferences”
I chuckled
Lapis Lazuli looked at me with an impassive expression
She had eyes that appeared as if she understood but also didn’t understand at the same time
“What? Are you disappointed that it wasn’t the answer that you had hoped for?”
“Slightly”
Lapis Lazuli tilted her head
“This one was certain that your highness wanted to obtain and enjoy a high quality sex slave from a noble birth”
“What? What kind of nonsense…… Wait What kind of person do you see me as?”
“Of course, this one sees it as it is”
There’s a vassal here that’s treating their lord like a huuely understood the reason why Lapis Lazuli’s affection was yet to get past 10 No, well, I actually a disgusting like getting a sex slave
“Lala”
I spoke in an incredibly serious tone
“I’ll use this chance to tell you clearly”
“What is it?”
“I prefer mature adults”
It was truly so
