“The core of this matter is the Great Devil Castle.”

After some discussion with Celestia, Helena began talking about her plans for responding to Hellion in earnest.

“Great Devil Castle?”

“Unho, you probably know that when you become the owner of the Great Devil Castle, you gain great power. I used that power to teleport this city.”

Helena seems to be referring to the power of the Great Devil.

“The power that can be used simply by becoming the owner of the Great Devil Castle was implanted in me by embodying the power of the stars in various ways. But what happens if they come together?”

Gather it all together…

“Is the Great Demon King being born?”

“Well, that’s not it… If there is an entity that can control all the powers of the Great Devil, wouldn’t Hellion be able to be ignored?”

I know what the plan is.

The power of the Great Devil alone can be powerful enough to overwhelm demons.

If there were a being who possessed all the great evil powers in one body, then of course Hellion would not be able to take them lightly.

Helena is trying to create such a being.

But there is a problem with that method.

The Zephyria army is protecting the remaining great devils.

Doesn’t Helena know that too?

I see Helena carefully watching me.

There was anticipation in her eyes.

“Could it be…?”

… Has Helena marked me as the owner of all Great Demon Castles?

Certainly… I think I’m the only one who can play that role.

The energy felt by Helena, who has given over all of her power to Hellion… Seems to be less than the power of the Archdemon.
Even though there is a saying that he is still good even if he is rotten… It is shabby compared to the power of someone who once ascended to the position of master of the stars.

But I am different.

In fact, he is the owner of four Great Devil Castles… And if Hellion is unable to move, it is not impossible to use his strength to deal with the remaining Great Devils and take over the Great Devil Castle without him noticing.

No matter how much I think about it, I am the only one who can become the owner of all the Great Demon Castles.

“Hmm.”

I also thought I knew why Helena was looking for Celestia. It wasn’t just because she wanted to see it.

Celestia is now the owner of the Great Devil Castle, who can control the Avatar. In order to transfer ownership of her arch-demon castle to me, I must ask for her permission.

“… Helena, are you planning on passing on the position of owner of this city?”

Strictly speaking, this city can also be called the Great Devil Castle.

“Of course.”

Helena nodded her head with a determined look.

“…”

This city of beauties will be mine…

I swallowed dry saliva without realizing it.

This… Can’t be helped.

If it’s for the greater good…

“Hmm… Sounds like a good idea.”

Helena’s face widens at my positive reaction.

“Thank you for your understanding. If Celestia becomes the master of all Archdemon Castles, she will be able to keep Hellion in check!”

“Uh… Huh? Three, Celestia…?”

My thoughts stopped for a moment at Helena’s answer, which was different from what I expected.

‘You’re making Celestia, not me, the owner of all the Great Demon Castles?!’

What that means is that I should give up all of my Great Devil nature, not Celestia’s Great Devil nature.

“But Helena, Celestia… Can you be trusted? Why aren’t you the owner of the Great Devil Castle?”

While I was distracted by the unexpected candidate for the Great Demon King, Cloud glanced suspiciously at Celestia, who was quietly standing next to Helena, and asked.

“Except for this city, where I am currently the master, there is a ban on Zephyrians not being able to become the master of other Great Devil Castles.”

“Didn’t you say that you created the Great Demon Castle? Weren’t you an exception?”

“Yes. I am no exception to that. Of course, I can lift the ban, but… It is not an easy task. I don’t think there will be enough time to lift it before Hellion gets involved in this.”

Helena said, looking at Celestia with her warm eyes.

“… Then it would be better to entrust that power to someone you can trust.”

“Uhm…”

Cloud let out a muffled voice as if he didn’t like the idea of ​​giving Celestia so much power.

Not only that, but there was also a little worry in the eyes of Rebellion and Nora, who escaped from Karaz.

Celestia was new to them, and she even had the fearsome title of the Great Devil, so it was natural for them to be worried.

“Everyone, don’t worry. Celestia is like my daughter. It’s been a long time, but I can tell! Celestia’s warm nature hasn’t changed!”

“If Helena says so…”

“There is no other way since Zephyrian cannot become the master of the Great Demon Castle. Still, I have no choice but to leave it to someone I can trust…”

Contrary to their good mood, my insides were burning.

Somehow, something was going on regardless of my will.

Above all…

I felt a little betrayed by the Karaz Escape members.

Even so, Helena, the others have seen me more time than Celestia. But for some reason, not even the first letter of my name comes out of their mouths.

Is it… An illusion that I feel like I trust Celestia more than myself?

〈What is an illusion? It’s true. Think about what you have done.〉

“…?”

No matter how much I think about it, I don’t think they did anything wrong… Rather, he was their benefactor who helped them escape from Karaz.

Helena’s eyes turn to me.

For some reason, her warm eyes were benevolent… No, she was full of kindness.

“It must not have been an easy decision… Thank you, Unho!”

“…?!”

How… I feel like I have to hand over the Arch-Evil Castle I have and deal with the remaining 3 Arch-Devils as well.

The word is cooperation, but Helena’s eyes… Is it my mistake to feel like a threat?

The problem is that at first… I was lured by Helena’s words and gave half-way permission without realizing it.

‘Could it be… Was this Helena’s plot?’

Seeing that innocent face, I unconsciously let my guard down.

Damn… What a conspiracy.

〈What is the conspiracy… You turned your eyes away because of a woman.〉

‘Cosmos. Don’t just think about making fun of the owner, come up with a plan.’

I don’t have a big attachment to the Great Devil Castle.

Becoming the owner of the Great Devil Castle wasn’t my greed, it was something that happened as things progressed.

But for some reason, it felt like a waste to think that humans should just give away their things.

〈Measures? You can just say you don’t want to show off your Great Devil nature.〉

It’s not that easy.

There were many unfortunate favors I had to ask of Helena.

Aside from keeping her in check, Hellion must also ask her to return to the important planet of Panthera.
Return is a more important issue than ownership of the Great Devil Castle.

It was a time when I was trying to rob my Great Devil with a request that was almost like a threat.

“Mr. Unho! Are you really planning to hand over the entire Great Devil Castle?! Are you crazy? You’re not even a hogu?!”

Rania, a loyalist from the Karaz slums, stamped her feet and got angry.

“Rania…”

I remember Rania being quite happy when she found out that I was an archdemon.

“You own four huge cities like this one? I didn’t think you were someone worth rotting away in that slum! Mr. Unho! Can I have a place there too?”

Rania’s eyes were sparkling with anticipation as she said that.

Women in power are inherently strong-willed.

Wasn’t Rania expecting something like that?

She took risks and followed me.

Asking for a little in return can be seen as cuteness.

In reality, in my Great Devil Castle, my women have the power of fire and water.

But that dream disappeared in an instant.

Her backlash was natural.

And Rania’s backlash was like a ray of light for me, who was caught up in Helena’s plot.

Hehe… Is that so?”

I quietly agreed with her opinion with the most innocent face.

“Unho, it’s really frustrating! Of course not! Anyway, you’re just handing over these four huge cities? Does that make sense?!”

“Uhm…”

I rubbed my chin as if I was struggling.

“Unho. It’s for the greater good. For the sake of the demons living in a harsh environment and the poor Pantheans of this city… You must know how to let go of small things.”

The Cloud guy interjected with a solemn look on his face, and she said that.
That kid?

Small?

Whose family’s dog do you think the 4 Great Devil Castles are?

“Wow, aren’t you so selfish? You don’t even do anything yourself! Furthermore, you tell others to do this and that! Furthermore, you even offered your younger sister to Unho and said something like that!”

I internally cheered for Rania, who was sharply shooting Cloud.

“You say such vulgar things! People are not things!!”

“Rania, this is not a problem to worry about. We need to look further than small greed.”

“If we can’t keep Hellion in check… The Great Devil Castle won’t be safe either.”

Claire and Kaurama gave strength to Cloud’s opinion.

“No! You can’t get over the Great Devil Castle!”

An argument breaks out between Rania and the Rebellion gang.

Although I was rooting for Rania in my heart, public opinion was already leaning towards the opinions of the Rebellion gang.

The problem is that although their story is unfortunate, it does have some truth to it.

The point is that keeping Hellion in check is the top priority.

Otherwise, everything will eventually be swept away.

It was a fight Rania could not win.

“… But… This… Is too much…”

Rania’s voice becomes quiet.

He gives me an affectionate look, telling me to do something.

I can’t even say with my mouth that I want to be the master of all the Great Demon Castles. Anyone can see that it appears to have impure intentions.

Rather, it will cause a big backlash.

“Rania, stop it. I know how you feel about me.”

I decided to sort out this situation before Rania gets beaten up even more.

“Mr. Unho…”

The eyes focused on me were secretly waiting for a definite answer from me.

To me, they didn’t even hold a knife, but their eyes looked no different from those of robbers.

Should I give it out too?

The moment when I was about to become Park Ho-gu instead of Park Un-ho.

Celestia, who had been quietly listening to the argument between Helena, Rania, and the Rebellion guys, opened her mouth.

“Helena.”

“Huh?”

“Unho will be better suited to the role of keeping Hellion in check than me.”

“… Woonho?”

“Unho is a stronger being than me. It’s not for nothing that he rules over the four Great Devil Castles. He was a being that surpassed the Great Devils even when he didn’t have the power of the Great Devil Castles. And Unho is more merciful than any Great Devil I’ve ever seen. It exists. More than me.”

Helena looks at me with new eyes.

It’s been 7 years since I came to this demon world, Planet Zephyria.

The only friend I made here, Celestia.

I finally found out that she is a true friend that I can trust.
No, there are no friends between men and women.

She agreed to accept it if she made her confession.

〈Tsk tsk… Another useless delusion.〉

Cosmos clicked his tongue as if he was dissatisfied with something else.
