Chapter 956 – Episode 877 – A Merciful Demon King Who Cares About Both Humans and Demons! (3)
“Bite down your molars. “This is violence for you, with my thoughts on peace.”
“W-what… Wow!?”
“Huh!!? Now, wait!?”
The overwhelming disparity in muscle mass and physique that men can’t help but feel intimidated by.
When the two males were nervous at the sight of me, I began to slap their cheeks with my wish for peace.
“Yo yo to trash. I dare say I will make the world peaceful. Are you trying to put a candle to that?”
“Ugh, huh!? Kkeak, kkeak!?”
“Puhak!? Whoosh, whoosh! Stop…!”
“Conflict! Love and Peace. Love and peace, you bastards. I don’t know? If you don’t know, you should get hit. “What can I do?”
Weapon destruction. Massacre of males. Everything was packaged in a plausible way and explained well.
I said I would prevent war so that we wouldn’t have to fight. And yet, these dissatisfied, trash-like males who like violence.
To these guys who want to ask where they sold the calm mind Eser brought them. I kept slapping my cheek without any mercy.
“It’s normal to be happy when there’s an opportunity to get along well with each other, but there are people who refuse peace like this. “What are you guys doing?”
“Oops! “Kuk, keuk, keuk…!”
“Phew! “Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa…!”
“Do you have any strength left? Do you want to fight somehow? You fucking bastards. Then fight whatever you want until you die.”
I twist my body to see how to resist. An overwhelming force that prevents them from escaping.
As I was holding onto the guys and beating them, I threw the two guys towards their weapons that had fallen on the platform.
“Just do whatever you want. Let’s kill each other in front of everyone.”
“Keuuuuu…”
“Ugh… Keuh, keuh, ugh…”
As they wriggled around their respective weapons. When I applauded and urged them on, the two males slowly stood up with their weapons.
The two males, who were glaring at each other with swollen faces, looked at me with eyes that seemed uncomfortable.
“… Tsk tsk. Think carefully. “I have no intention of watching this any more~?”
“… Ugh…”
“… Ugh…”
“I plan to protect both humans and demons for the peace of the world. I have no intention of protecting even those who do not want peace. “I plan to just kill those guys with my own hands.”
A brief glimpse of the swollen faces of two frightened males, as if they had discovered a common enemy.
Seeing those eyes, I clenched my fist to show off my veiny muscles, and they quietly lowered their eyes as if they had lost the will to resist.
“… Tsk tsk. What. Aren’t you fighting? They even laid the board down? “Have you finally realized what you did wrong?”
“… Uh, uhm… That’s… Uh, um… Sorry…”
“… Yes, yes… I realized… The Lord is trying to prevent war… I’m sorry for trying to fight…”
After realizing that the country is something they cannot do anything about. The two males glanced at each other for a moment, as if they didn’t know what to do.
There, when I smiled and asked, the guys put away their weapons and lowered their heads as if they had decided that was enough.
“Um, okay. It seems like you have finally realized the heart of Love and Peace. Then you two. Now let’s apologize to each other and give each other a hug of love and peace.”
“… Ugh… No, that’s…”
“What? “You guys aren’t thinking about fighting yet, are you?”
“… Ugh… Ah, I understand… I’m sorry…”
A coercive order that feels unpleasant at first glance, telling middle-aged men who were about to fight to hug each other.
There were two males who momentarily frowned. When I shook my clenched fist, they carefully hugged each other as if there was nothing they could do.
“… Tsk tsk. Ruler. Applause ~ This is a picture of humans and demons who were fighting each other reconciling ~ Let everyone not forget this feeling of love and peace ~”
When I applauded while looking at those guys, the human prisoners and demons followed me and clapped as if they were being guided by something.
Amid the growing applause. The dirty embrace of the sweaty males with red faces continued for a while.
************************************************** ************************************************** *******
And after that. The humans and demons roughly finished organizing themselves and set off for the demons’ base, led by me and the beasts.
The defense line of the demons spread out quite widely to block the large army of humans. There, the main camp of the demons was prepared inside the center so that Ferragus and the main army could depart at any time.
If you were to walk normally, it would take about a week. Still, perhaps because they were high-level adventurers and soldiers, they followed along without much difficulty even if they increased their speed from time to time.
Even so, as it was the body of an inferior species, I got tired quickly and had to slow down. Anyway, the humans and demons moved faster than expected.
With no one left behind, I and the Negatives were able to bring the humans and demons to the demons’ base.
Hmm… It takes half a day in two days to cover a distance that would take about a week on foot…
They were of a high level and were able to keep up well… But the speeds were quite frustrating.
I arrived quite exhausted… If I had taken it easy, it would have taken about 3 or 4 days?
They are not ordinary people, but high-level strong people, and it is so difficult to travel long distances. Anyway, there is nothing that can be done about the bodies of inferior species.
“… Oh. Is that it? “Is this the headquarters of the demon army that used the city of a tribe that was exterminated about 60 years ago?”
“Huh. That’s right. This is my second visit, so I don’t know much about it, but… It was a city once used by prosperous tribes, so even though it has been improved, it still has traces of a city.”
The headquarters of a fairly large group of demons who improved the city of a tribe that lived near the border.
The walls are quite high, perhaps for defense purposes. Perhaps because it was a city for living, it surprisingly did not seem like a castle for war.
If that thing fits in well, it could probably last hundreds of thousands of people… Well, we need to look into how the inside has been improved, but…
You said the main army was 50,000 strong, right? Hmm. Then there will be more than enough places for human prisoners.
“I think Miguel or something has slowly arrived at the human camp… Hmm. “Then I guess I should quickly say hello to the demon commanders?”
“Cook cluck. Okay. I’ll go quickly and talk to you. Come in slowly.”
When I urged Astaroth to quickly go in and sleep, she giggled and got off my back and got on Suika’s petite horse.
Then, the leaders ran straight to the demon soldiers guarding the gate, and told them what to do as they were nervous when they saw us.
There seemed to be a bit of a commotion there, but by the time I and the eumsoos, who were leisurely walking, arrived in front of the castle gate, many demons were already out in front.
“I heard the story! You are the Divine Beast that Astaroth was talking about! “I am Sonya, a top-class soul demon who serves as the second commander of General Ferragus!”
“Oh, yeah. Sonya… Huh? Isn’t that strange? “I heard that the representative of the main camp is Ferragus, right?”
“Well, Ferragus is currently preparing in the commander’s office! 1 The manager went to pick you up, so he’ll be out soon!”
I don’t know what Astaroth was talking about. A female from the Honma tribe greets me, looking somewhat disciplined.
When I tilted my head at Ferragus, who I thought I would see first, not seeing him, the female avoided my gaze with an expression that seemed to indicate something.
“Well, anyway…! We are told that he brought human captives captive! He said he would use them to negotiate with the humans…”
“Uh. That’s right. If you say negotiation, it just means trying to persuade them to stop the war… But you heard that you have to treat them well, right?”
“Hmm. Yes, for now…! Actually, I’m still not convinced, but…! Since we have Astaroth’s words, we will tailor it to what you want!”
Still, perhaps because there are several female leaders, the female commander accepts without hesitation my request to prepare a comfortable environment for the prisoners.
I liked the look of her and was wondering when to pick her, when I saw someone running hurriedly from afar, wearing a hat.
“Lotte! Lotte is here!?”
Uh… That spirit of speculation… This voice… I’m sure it’s the Ferragus I met in my dream…
What is that guy? Why has your face become so gaunt? You look like you haven’t slept properly for a few days?
“Lotte! Lot…!? … Huh…!? Ah, no, Lotte, you, you…!?”
“Wow♡ Ferragus~♡ It’s been a while~♡”
“No, wait!? Lotte!? Why is your skin color like that!? What, why is that pure white skin suddenly…!?”
So I searched for her, calling out for her Astaroth. Ferragus froze in place upon seeing Astaroth rushing towards her.
The way his expression changed immediately after discovering Astaroth was quite something to see.
“Giggle♡ It’s a bit long to talk about it~♡ While Ferragus was away, various things happened in the demon society~♡”
“W-what…!? Something like this…!? No, what happened to your pretty skin like this…!?”
“Yes? Isn’t this pretty too? Hehe♡ It seems like it’s a bit too much stimulation for Ferragus to accept♡”
It was as if other demon soldiers and humans were not even in sight. Ferragus was talking to Astaroth for a while with a face covered in dark circles.
There, Astaroth briefly explained the situation to Ferragus, and then he motioned to me, who had returned to human form.
“This is the grateful divine beast who came to save those demons♡ Semaya♡ Greetings, Ferragus♡”
“Tsk tsk. Nice to meet you, brother. “I am Semanim, the god who came to save the demons.”
“Ha, ha…!? For a moment…! What are you doing, linking arms with Lotte… Ugh…!?”
I saw it in a dream to the point where I was sick of it. In fact, he was Ferragus, who was seeing me for the first time.
The moment I approached Ferragus, said hello, and affectionately linked arms with Astaroth. Ferragus frowned and stretched out his hand towards me…
As if something was scared when it saw my face. He froze in place and began to tremble.
“Ugh…!? Huh…!? W-what are you… W-what are you doing…?”
“Tsk tsk. What are you doing? You didn’t do anything in particular? Lotte. “Why is he like this?”
“Hmm. Well…♡ Aren’t you surprised to see Sema? Sema, you look a little scary just by looking at your appearance♡”
“Eh~? It looks scary. What kind of harsh words are you talking about? This feels a little hurt~?”
“Ahaha♡ I’m sorry, Sema~♡ I’ll apologize like this, so please forgive me~♡”
A contract between the dream demons and their lovers.
Due to that psychological contract, Ferragus must have had the fear of me that he experienced in his dream engraved in his soul.
Even though I didn’t experience it myself, I was faced with Ferragus, who was already imprinted with fear of me. I and Astaroth smiled and clung to each other affectionately, as if we were lovers.
“Hmm~? Brother Ferragus, is your facial complexion a little off? Did you have trouble sleeping?”
“Ah♡ No, Ferragus♡ You should sleep well♡ I’m here, so I’ll help you sleep well at night♡”
“No… No, not like that… No… This child…”
“Tsk tsk. For being so expensive to me. Are you giving me special treatment just because you’re my boyfriend? Does this make me a little jealous~?”
“Ahaha♡ Don’t be jealous, Sema~♡ I’ll help you as much as I can so that Sema can sleep well♡ … Then, Ferragus♡ I think you’re tired, so I’m taking a break♡ Me and Sema will be looking into where the humans and demons we brought in are staying. ♡ Let’s talk a lot later ♡”
“Uh, no, Lotte…!? Wait…!?”
Astaroth and I are passing by with our arms crossed. Ferragus hesitates on the spot, unable to say anything.
Many demons and humans were watching the poor male who gave in to me before he even started.
