Chapter 46 – Farewell Time (1)
==================
The trilateral diplomatic meeting held in the imperial castle of the Holy Empire did not proceed for long.
This is because Tanya Mainz, the Imperial Chamberlain, who was granted full authority for diplomatic talks by the Emperor of the Empire, declared, “I cannot give away the Demon King Slayer.”
Rejected the offer of the Liberia Elves.
The representative of the Elf country raised objections to this. This is because only a demon lord slayer can be used to punish the demon lord of heat wave. The delegation from the Kingdom of Valois felt uneasy about the Holy Empire’s decision as well. It was because the elves would not release the Yushin Gilead unless the Holy Empire dispatched the Demon King Slayer.
“No way… , I can not understand! Currently, the country of elves is preparing for a battle against the demon king. In order to end the immortality of the demon lord, the Empire’s demon lord slayer is absolutely necessary!”
“Right now, there are no Demon King Slayers in the Imperial Territory.”
Tanya answered.
He opened his small mouth and exhaled smoke.
At the Goblin’s words, the representative of the elves interpreted, “The Demon King Slayer has temporarily left the Imperial Territory.” The same was true of the Kingdom of Valois. Currently, the Demon King Slayer is absent. In response, the elf representative opened his mouth again.
“Well, then at least tell me the location… ! And I want you to tell me the information about the Demon King Slayer!”
“No, that is impossible. I made a pact not to reveal my identity. It’s an oath with the prestige of our empire. We cannot unilaterally break the oath.”
“… Are you really a dragon?”
The elf representative asked.
Tanya shook her head at the elf representative’s cautious question.
“It is true that dragons are sensitive to the oath, but the demon lord slayer is not a dragon. Dragons can’t kill demon lords, so if that was possible, thousands of years old dragons would have come out and killed the demon lords all at once.”
It was like doing twenty heads.
The faces of the elves began to become enraged at Tanya’s question-filled words.
It was the moment when the masks of the elves, who were always dignified and relaxed, were removed. For a long time, elves have observed and learned from humans. Unlike in the past, elves today have habits very similar to humans. Even personality and characteristics, most things were similar.
“The race is human. In the war between the Holy Empire and the demon lords, you subdued the tyrannical demon lord, Agares. It was done in secret so that no one would find out.”
Tanya did not tell me about the identity of the Demon King Slayer.
Instead,
He told me about the process of subjugating Agares.
“We raided the castle of the demon king where Agares is staying and cut off his head. I had to hurry because I had to deal with the demon king’s followers who were scattered all over the front before they arrived. It only took two hours to cut off the demon king’s immortality.”
The diplomats swallowed dry saliva at Tanya’s words.
I couldn’t believe it even after hearing it.
About the existence of a demon king slayer who was said to have decapitated the demon king in just two hours.
If her words are true, the Demon King Slayer born in the war between the Holy Empire and the Demon King Army must be a person with mighty power to save mankind. I couldn’t believe that such a person existed.
“Well, if that’s true…”
The elf representative muttered.
If everything the goblin said was true,
It is a force that must be obtained by the Elves of Liberia, which must somehow defeat the demon lord of the heat wave.
If you can recruit him as a reinforcement, you will be able to end the war that is going on slowly in the Liberia Peninsula at once. The elves discovered the possibility of victory in the demon lord slayer hidden by the Holy Empire.
“Dae, who the hell are you…. That person… ! Come on let us know! Our country of elves desperately needs him!”
The elf representative shouted.
There was so much desperation in his voice that it made the listener feel sorry for him.
However, even with that desperate cry, the Holy Empire could not reveal the identity of the Demon King Slayer. It was because he had to absolutely keep the promise he had sworn in the name of the empire. However, since he couldn’t treat his ally, the Elves of Liberia, with disdain, he decided to give them vague clues.
“The Demon King Slayer is someone from another world, Another One. And he is not a knight of the Holy Empire.”
He gave two clues.
Another One.
And he is not a knight of the Holy Empire.
The Liberia elves had to rely on those clues to uncover the identity of the Demon King Slayer. The representative of the elf complained that there were too few clues, but Tanya nailed it saying that she couldn’t say anything more. The diplomats of the Kingdom of Valois, who were listening to their conversation from a third person’s point of view, were also turning on the lights in their eyes to find out the identity of the Demon King Slayer.

Numerous high elf nobles flocked to the Valencian family.
As the high elf nobles, as well as the attendants and escort knights who served him, were combined, it quickly became crowded.
“Sir Wallace, did the family say they bought that human for five billion acres?! Then I will give you 50 billion, more than 10 times that amount! How about it, isn’t it tempting?!”
“What is 50 billion! I’ll give you 70 billion. There are cash you can trade right away, as well as expensive jewels and trinkets from the Holy Empire! If you want, I will give you all the rare magic tools in my family!”
The duel between Yushin Gilead and Bariteon Trident at Bria Academy was widely known.
Bariteon has been defeated.
3 warrior commanders, the user of the theory of eternity who was in command of the southern front lost mercilessly in a duel to a human.
Surprisingly, the human slave was another one from another world. It was only natural that the high elves flocked to the Valencian family like bees. The high elves who heard the rumors were wide-eyed with greed to enslave Another One, who was endowed with the power of the gods.
“This… , This idiot… !”
Ardena, her face furious, glared at Yushin and said.
Valencia Castle has been completely turned upside down.
It was no exaggeration to say that the city of Valencia was buzzing with high elves and their attendants from all over the country.
The cause is Yushin Gilead. It was because of the high elves who would buy him even if they gave him billions of dollars. They were eager to occupy another one with the power of God. It was to the point where Wallace, the head of the Valencian family, had to sweat hard dealing with the high elves.
“I couldn’t help it. Bariteon, that bully touched Alone first.”
Allone, who was watching Yushin’s words, helped.
“Right! That blonde bully tried to touch Leticia with me! Was he a very bad guy? My sister told the high priest to cut it off!”
Through Alone’s words, Ardena learned, at least briefly, the whole story of the incident at Bria Academy.
The one who provoked it was Bariteon.
Yushin was forced to step out to protect his younger sister.
Ardena, who glared at Yushin with her arms crossed, admitted that she had been too hasty. She and she said thank you to Yushin. Ardena coughed and turned her head away at the sight of Yushin starting to put on her arrogant expression.
“But is another one really that great?”
“Didn’t you know…?”
“Yes. The first time I heard it from Master, I didn’t know what it meant. I just thought I was from a far country.”
“That is not wrong. Although the content about giving the aliens from a faraway place an enormous power called ‘God’s power’ was left out.”
Yushin shrugged.
Some disturbance was to be expected.
But I didn’t know that the aftermath would come so soon.
He made Wallace, the head of the Valencian family, whose hair keeps falling out because of work. If Wallace demands compensation for the loss of his head, Yushin may have to serve the Valencia family until his death.
“So how do you feel, Master? You became the most expensive slave in Liberia’s elves.”
“How do you feel? What makes you happy to be the best male prostitute in the country of elves?”
She became the most expensive slave in the Elf country of Liberia, where slavery is prevalent.
According to Alone, who spyed on the office crowded with numerous High Elf nobles, he even said that the price of one Yushin would reach 100 billion won.
100 billion. It is an amount comparable to the national budget of a country.
Upon hearing this, Ardena shouted, “If you have such a large amount, pay it as a patriotic donation!” He was enraged at the behavior of the high elven nobles, who were shouting hundreds of billions of aether just to buy one slave.
“Congratulations, Ms. Ardena, who has become the most discerning slave owner in the elven country.”
“Kuh! No, don’t make fun of me!”
The amount Ardena paid in the slave auction in Pamplona was 5 billion acres.
When the high elves heard that she had bought her slaves for her half a billion acres, they said they had bought them too expensive, and treated Ardena as her ignorant lady.
But now the situation has changed to the opposite.
This is because the slaves purchased for 5 billion aether have now soared to a whopping 20 times the value. The High Elf aristocrats praised Ardena and Valencia for their shortsightedness, saying that Ardena and Valencia would be the greatest men in the slave trade.
“Why am I in such a shame…”
“Are you embarrassed? The country of elves is the country that enforces slavery most actively. Open your chest You have become a great man respected by many slave owners in this country.”
“You’re smiling even though you say that.”
“Actually, I’m just kidding.”
At her Yushin’s teasing, Ardena clenched her fists and blushed in her shame.
Should I just sell it? Ardena was seriously worried.
But soon she decided to quit.
Because there is not much left until the time of parting. Seeing Yushin and Alone laughing and chatting, Ardena smiled bitterly, filled with her sadness.

Heat wave demon,
Sabnak.
She was waiting for her time in Granada, a large city located in the southern part of the Liberia Peninsula.
It wasn’t long before she heard Jin’s high pitched voice.
The time will come when she will lead an army of tens of thousands to capture Maherit, the capital of the Liberia Elves, and plant the flag of the Demon King’s Army.
“Sir Savnak.”
Dalgrak. Dalgrak.
A boneless knight approached with a grotesque ringing sound.
“Uh.”
The demon king, who had closed his eyes with his legs crossed in his chair, finally opened his eyes.
Glass-colored eyes that shine transparently.
However, in those eyes, the demon king’s intimidation overflowed.
A rugged longsword stood next to Savnak, leaning on the black throne. It was a scrap metal sword that felt no power, but Savnak always used that sword. Because it was the only sword that could withstand Savnak’s powerful swordsmanship.
“The dynamics of the elves have suddenly changed. It seems to be preparing for a battle with us.”
“The only opponent I have is El Cid. It doesn’t matter.”
Savnak said as if to affirm.
At those words, the undead knight kneeling before the demon king lowered his head.
What kind of safety would you harbor distrust?
Everything is guided by the Demon King. If he declared death to the elves, his subordinates would only carry out the king’s orders.
“What gift to send to their capital city?”
“The preparations are complete.”
“It is a gift of the upcoming war. Throw it at them without mercy.”
“Yes.”
When the order was delivered, the undead knight retreated with a clattering sound.
I was alone again.
Savnak closed his eyes again and fell into meditation.
But the meditation did not last long. Savnak’s head, leaning on his throne, began to shake. He told his followers that it was meditation, but he was actually sleeping.

Heat wave demon,
Savnak
