Various types of gazes gathered on Cain as he gave his speech. There were only a few favourable ones, and many hostile or downright murderous ones.
However, Cain continued speaking even while feeling their emotions.
“––As representative of the humans, I apologise to Her Highness Lisabeth. But from now on, I wish that you will work with the humans.”
When he finished his speech, no voices rose from the audience.
Seto was still being held down by the other two Demon Kings.
When Cain shook hands with Logsia standing next to him after the speech, Denis approached Logsia from the back, and –– stabbed him through his stomach.
Both Logsia and the crowd were dumbfounded.
“The imperial family has been brainwashed by the humans! This is proof of that! We demons are supposed to rule by force! It makes more sense for a strong demon to be welcomed into the imperial family and rule the demons!”
Denis said to the audience, having pulled his hand back out of Logsia’s stomach.
Demons functioned on a meritocracy system. The one overseeing that was the imperial family, but showing amicability towards humans was unacceptable for demons.
Thus, Denis’ words were praised.
“…You people…”
Cain gently caught Logsia’s slowly collapsing body.
The demons were a race specialising in attack magic, and thus were bad at healing magic. For them, people not being able to be saved from such a grave wound was common sense.
However, Cain was also present, so this was a failure for the demons.
[Ex Heal]
Cain cast magic on Logsia, and the gaping wound gradually closed up and was back to normal in less than a minute.
“…What the… That should have been a fatal injury…”
While Denis made an astonished expression, Cain stepped forward to protect Logsia and Lisa who had come running up to them.
“––If that’s your answer, then you’re fine with being hostile to Lisa’s side, are you…”
Cain simultaneously let his killing intent free.
The killing intent spread out towards the Demon Kings and the audience, but not towards Lisabeth and Logsia.
He had never let loose so much killing intent before, and it turned its targets hopeless.
The spectators nearby all fainted, their eyes rolling back into their heads. Even the ones who had been watching from further away backed away, wincing.
The crowd ran away.
However, Denis, as a Demon King, had a lot of power. Gritting his teeth, he endured Cain’s killing intent.
However, the fact that Cain’s killing intent surpassed the power of a Demon King was obvious at a glance, and even the Demon Kings shook from fear.
“Impossible. Absolutely impossible. That I, a Demon King, feel fear…”
Denis governed his country through power. While there weren’t any fights among Demon Kings, he had never felt fear once since he was born.
However, he felt fear at seeing the human child younger than himself, whom he had though of as a mere midget.
Shaking from fear, Denis took something small out of his pocket and put it in his mouth.
He gulped whatever it was down, then the corners of his mouth rose in a sneer.
“…Human. You cannot escape from here any more…”
Simultaneously, magical power erupted from Denis all of a sudden. His body became larger, and his muscles swelled up. His magical power had multiplied quite a few times.
However, that magical power was familiar to Cain.
“––Don’t tell me… A Fragment of the Evil God…”
A fight with someone who had been taken in by the Evil God.
It resembled the magical power of Corgino, whose mind had also been stolen by the Evil God.
“So you humans call it that. We call it the ‘God’s Favour’. Well, I’ll kill you now.”
Simultaneously with their magical powers colliding, Cain and Denis moved.
However, no matter that he had taken in a Fragment of the Evil God, Denis and Cain’s difference in power was obvious.
Cain took his sword out of his Item Box in an instant, and slashed with it once.
“You might have gotten stronger from taking in a Fragment of the Evil God, but… That is meaningless to me.”
“…Unbelievable… That a human would be… this…”
Denis’ head slowly slid downwards and fell on the ground.
Agus and Ignis had not been expecting that.
They couldn’t have even imagined that the boy who had come as the representative of the humans would be able to send to his grave a Demon King who had taken in the God’s Favour in an instant.
Ignis also swallowed the God’s Favour.
“Don’t lump me in with Denis!”
As he felt his magical power erupt upwards, Ignis also flew at Cain in the same manner.
However, moving as if he had known it was coming, Cain cut off his head in the same way.
There were two dead bodies of Demon Kings by the stand.
The ones who had run away but were still watching from afar couldn’t believe their eyes.
Demon Kings, the strongest beings.
Their lives were taken in an instant. Moreover, their reaper had been a human, and just a boy.
They couldn’t accept it that easily.
Stopping running away, the crowd was stunned.
Meanwhile, Seto pushed away the now alone Agus, holding him down instead.
“He won’t lose, even if he’s alone. How is it, Cain-sama’s true power? Even if you lot gang up on him, you will be no match.”
Seto smiled, while Lisabeth became fascinated by Cain.
She knew Cain was powerful, as he had saved her, but she had not thought that even Demon Kings would be no match for him.
Everything among the demons was decided by power.
Members of the demon race wanted partners capable of protecting them when it came to the opposite gender.
There was no way Lisabeth, as a girl, wouldn’t fall in love with Cain, who could send a Demon King flying with one kick.
No, she had always liked him, but that had been because he had been the only choice.
However, that turned into conviction right then and there.
‘I want to be with this person.’
Lisabeth carved that into her heart.
“U-ugh…? What, it doesn’t, hurt…?”
Regaining consciousness, Logsia got up and looked around him. ––Then, he became speechless.
Lying in front of him were –– Denis’ and Ignis’ heads.
Their bodies were also lying on the ground, and he could tell they were dead at a glance.
“Just what… is this…?”
He asked Lisabeth, who was next to him, and she smiled.
“This is… Cain’s true power. You knew, did you not. Who would lose if we went to war. Big brother, the one who healed you was also Cain.”
Remembering what had happened to him at Lisabeth’s words, he looked down, but all he saw were his clothes with a hole in them where he had been stabbed, but not a single scratch.
To Logsia, who was unfamiliar with recovery magic, it was unbelievable.
“Is that so. So it seems my choice was not wrong after all.”
Logsia smiled with pride at the fact that he had chosen to make friends with the human race instead of waging war.
