CHAPTER 157 – THE DEVIL AND THE SAINTESS
「You can speak now. Who the hell are you?」
I asked the man with black clothes while grabbing him with an aura arm in the air.
The Demon Sword’s power had completely controlled him. He answered with an emotionless voice.
「We are the tuners」
「Tuners?」
「The one that controls the world order and chaos, keeping them in the right balance」
「Controlling world order and chaos? That’s quite an exaggerating thing. What’s your group’s name?」
「……」
The lower lip of the man with black clothes moved, but he stopped.
He won’t answer the question. I asked again.
「Answer me」
「……」
「Oi, this guy, he isn’t answering. Are you going easy on him」
『He probably just doesn’t know. In the first place, there might be the possibility that it doesn’t have a name』
「It doesn’t have a name? Is that possible?」
『When your woman was caught, what do you think they would answer if she were asked what’s the name of your group? Would she answer Demon Sword Wielder and his merry friends?』
「……it was possible, huh. What about the possibility that he knows but wouldn’t tell?」
『Impossible』
Eleanor sneered.
『There is only one person that I cannot control in this world』
Me, huh.
『How about asking him why he came to clean them up?』
「I guess so. Why did you come to erase them, you were comrades right?」
「Because he got involved with the Demon Sword Wielder」
「With me?」
「The eunuchs of Calamba, the Queen of Comotoria, the Usurper King Thioza. Just like how we had done it up until now, we needed to kill them before they had a direct contact with the Demon Sword Wielder.」
「Kill them before they get direct contact with meーーno, wait」
……。
This guy, what did he just say?
Calamba?
「What do you mean by the eunuchs of Calamba? Was it your doing that they died inside the prison cell」
「I received orders, and took care of them personally」
「Oi, oi」
『What a surprising new information』
「To think that they’re also involved with that」
Calamba’s three eunuchs. The bastards that controlled Calamba Kingdom using Rica as a puppet.
I cooperated with Rica and threw them into the prison, but the incident became fuzzy because they suddenly died.
That too……no, since at that time, these guys have been involved, huh.
I thought it was only in Comotoria and Siracuza, but it looks like I’m mistaken.
They were already there when I came to Calamba.
And, Aegina as well, huh.
They’ve entered almost all the kingdoms of this world.
「But why would you erase them because they had some contact with me?」
「It was judged, “the Demon Sword Wielder is too dangerous”」
「Too dangerous?」
「The only man within the eternal history who made the Demon Sword Eleanor succumb, and completely put it under his control. The man who made the balance tilt on one side. The man who makes chaos accelerate」
『I have not succumbed!』
