Volume 9, Chapter 1: The Demon King Army, Invasion – Part 13
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
The Demonic Being priest Lazpuulas was riding on the back of a gigantic Demonic Beast, and was gazing at the war situation.
The one that he was riding at first had turned into particles of light due to the Great Demon King Cannon. Right now, he was on top of a different Grand Turtle.
Next to him was the 《Demonic Beast User》 Manuela.
And then, the commander-in-chief of the Demon King army Ourou was there.
「As expected of the hero of the shining sword, Chester Ray Galford -nano dearu. To think that Ryoka who hadst been strengthened to the limit would be defeated……」
He has a surprised look, but this was probably within his calculations──is what Lazpuulas thought.
The commander-in-chief seemed to find Ryoka to be an eyesore. It was because the young and uninhibited girl would repeatedly ignore orders.
The Demonic Beings who were of the former Edelgart faction also made flagrant movements to elevate Ryoka into a high position.
In order to solidify his own position in the Demon King army, Ourou should have wanted to pluck that sprout of talent.
He had most likely made Ryoka fight alone while expecting her defeat.
Was this crafty Demonic Being a shrewd tactician? Or, was he a small-timer that ran on self-protection? His evaluation was split at the moment but……
At any rate, the current Demon King army would not have come into existence if not for Ourou’s command. His leadership and decisiveness were absolutely necessary.
Lazpuulas turned his gaze to the box that fell onto the ground.
──As for why, it is because Great Demon King Modinalaam-sama is no longer in a state that could be called a king after all.
「Commander-in-chief Ourou, if we do not close the box.」
「It is already too late.」
「What did you say!?」
「It would seem that Great Demon King-sama has taken an interest in fighting.」
「Th, that is……Will things be alright? Won’t another town be annihilated……」
Lazpuulas voiced his concern.
To maintain the current Demon King army which had grown to an unprecedented scale, a fair amount of food was required. They had no provisions.
There was a need to steal from the towns of the Races.
Ourou twisted his head horizontally.
「If this Fortress City Faltra is removed, the many bases behind it shall be defenseless -nano dearu. This is where we shall have Great Demon King-sama show his power -dearu.」
「I see……」
「Instigating Great Demon King-sama’s fighting spirit, was the enemy’s blunder. They were foolish -dearu. Tis a fate that the Races’ excessive resistance hadst invited -nano dearu.」
「……」
That was surely also within his calculations, is what he thought.
By defeating Ryoka and showing that fight, Great Demon King-sama would be spurred on.
So it was a calculative step to turn Faltra City into scorched earth, and gain total control of the Lifelia Kingdom’s western side.
How shrewd.
Lazpuulas gazed at Faltra City.
「To think they would end up having to face against Great Demon King-sama……I am a Demonic Being, but I am harboring a feeling of pity for the Races.」
「Priests are too soft -no dearu!」
That might be true.
However, Great Demon King-sama’s power was overwhelming to the point that he ended up pitying them.
