Chapter 790 – Parade Outside the Village, Village Five (1)
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
-Village Five Resident’s POV-At the beginning of the parade are two heavily armed knights in full plate armor on horseback, walking side by side.
Each of the two knights holds a sword in front of his chest with both hands.
The sword of the knight on right glows white while the sword of the knight on the left glows black.
…….
Glows black?
What’s going on here?
Ma-maa, even if I don’t know, it is obvious that it’s mystical.
The two knights must be the leaders of the parade.
Their faces are completely hidden under their helmets so we can’t tell who they are, but we can tell their ability with just a glance.
They are holding their swords using both of their hands.
In short, they are not even holding the reins of their horses.
Nevertheless, they are walking straight and their swords are not even shaking.
I was surprised that such knights existed in the Demon King’s Kingdom.
However, why are they hiding their faces?
Normally, if you join in a parade like this, you will show your face to sell yourself.
There is also nothing in their full plate armor to indicate their house or title.
The only thing we could tell was that it was finely decorated and looked expensive.

Following the two knights were the pride of the kingdom, the royal guard.
The royal guard is an army directly under the demon king’s command.
Of course, they have no weak members.
Only the elite of the elite of the kingdom can join this army.
That’s the royal guard.
It is also very likely that only the most outstanding royal guards were chosen to participate in this parade.
……
I checked the flag that the group was carrying.
It’s the flag of the royal guard.
There’s no doubt that they were the royal guard.
However, why are they carrying big shields instead of weapons?
Everyone except the flag bearer has a shield.
Shield big enough to cover their entire bodies.
And they are marching with them in front of them, not to the side.
Why is that?
What does that mean?
Moreover, there are not many of them.
Only around 20.
The flag bearer is at the tail end and those with shields are marching in front of him.
I don’t know enough about parades to comment but shouldn’t the flag bearer be at the front of the group?
Besides, the shield bearers all look nervous, as if they are ready to jump out at any moment.
And I’m not the only one who noticed the weirdness they are showing. Murmurs can be heard around.

The next group who turned off the murmurs was the band.
Yep, a band.
There are around 50 of them in gorgeous costumes, marching, and playing musical instruments.
The light music enlivened the crowd of spectators.
Those around forgot about the weirdness of the royal guard and looked forward to the next group.

Following the band is…..eh?
Demon king?
Eh?
Already?
The demon king came in a roofless carriage.
……
Isn’t it too early?
Shouldn’t there be more groups first?
No, it’s not that the demon king shouldn’t have been here but……
Even a layman would feel that the demon king’s turn came too soon.
Look, even though the band managed to silence the crowd, they’re starting to buzz again and it’s even louder.
What are they doing?
If this continues and nothing is done about it, this parade will end up as a failure, right?
The demon king is waving his hands around with a big smile on his face but, is this really okay?
No, no, it’s too early to panic.
Joining this parade is the acting village chief of Village Five, Youko-sama, who is the pride and joy of Village Five!
There’s no way she would allow such a sloppy parade!
At least that’s what I thought……

Following the demon king were the four heavenly kings, the pride of the Demon King’s Kingdom!
A carriage ridden by Randan-sama, minister of internal affairs.
A carriage ridden by Count Chrome, minister of external affairs.
A carriage ridden by Hou-sama, minister of finance.
………
Areh?
Where is General Glatts, minister of military affairs?
The four heavenly kings aren’t even complete?

While those who were watching were uneasy, those who came next dispelled their uneasiness.
Three beastkins.
I know them.
They often came to Village Five to prepare for the parade.
They also arranged the dry run.
The three were astride their horses, waving their hands to the people around them as they rode along.
The people around cheered loudly at the sight of some familiar faces.
I think it’s louder compared to seeing the demon king earlier.
Is this okay?
I mean, is it?
-0-
Following the three beastkins are….
Ehto, who are they?
Participants from the towns and villages between Shashaato City and the royal capital?
Three or four people from one place are participating, so a group of around 50.
Hee.
I understand that we are puzzled but is it really my imagination that the people participating in the parade seem to be puzzled as well?
-0-
Then, the first legion of the Demon King’s Army.
Second legion.
Third legion.
Fourth legion.
Fifth legion.
Each with around 30 participants.
These are the corps that support the front line against the human kingdom.
They are not as strong as the royal guards but they are the core of the Demon King’s Kingdom’s Army so they are all quite capable.
However, why don’t they have swords?
The first legions have axes, the second have shovels, the third have saws, the fourth have hammers, and the fifth have sickles.
They are also lightly armored….
No, they’re not even wearing armor.
They are in normal military uniforms.
To be honest, I think everyone will be convinced if they say that they’re going to cultivate the forest.
Is it a consideration to not intimidate the parade goers?
If so, it might be considered a success but personally, I would like to some strong looking individuals.
Perhaps it was because I was thinking that way….
That my wish was granted.
