Chapter 191 – Chapter 17 – Arrival at Demon Castle
“Are you okay, Yulia?”
After returning to the office, Klaus asked such a question.
Then, as if Yulia had any concerns, she looked at him.
“The position of warrior commander is not entrusted to just anyone. Right now, your father…”
“I gave Heetari the position of warrior commander, believing that I would lay down my life for you from long ago. Ability is also ability, but it is a position that requires absolute loyalty.”
Although he was a traitor, he was clearly a loyal military commander until he betrayed him.
A being that would give allegiance to his master, to the king, not to anyone else.
However, it is safe to say that Kaela is more loyal to Klaus than to Yulia.
Right now, the reason why she treats her Julia with respect is because she is the king of Klaus, so she looks like his lieutenant.
However, Julia pointed out Kayla in a situation where Klaus had not even suggested it first.
As the person who will take the place of the warrior chief in place of the traitor Heetari.
Even as a ‘official’ battlefield, not a ‘temporary’ one.
“Kaela Tigger. You know best about her. Klaus.”
“Yes.”
“Then I will ask. Is she weak? Can’t she beat Heetari?”
“Not at all. I assure you, Heetari will turn into a torn corpse in an instant if Kayla treats her with sincerity.”
“It was explained in terms of strength. Next, is she a woman who will defy my orders?”
“… Of course not. As long as I follow you, she will follow you.”
“Then the answer came out. Her strength is incomparable to that of Heetari, and she is a person who does her best in her position without thinking of betraying her. I think the current Caela Tiger is perfect for her warrior commander, but isn’t Klaus?”
No, please Rather, it was the part I wanted the most.
Klaus knew very well how great the meaning of being a warrior commander was.
It’s not just about being a strong player in the East or being loyal.
It means that the demon king will keep it by his side and use it with great care, and the family that produced the warrior chief will have great prestige in the east.
But, not a demon, but a beastman? With this, it was a part that could be announced that the winds of change had definitely blown in the demon king family and in the east.
‘Of course, the backlash will not be easy… That’s all I have to do with my skills and skills.’
Wasn’t it the goal to fill Yulia’s side with my people anyway?
It is Klaus’ purpose to condition her so that she is always in some part of her control, although she has no intention of making her her puppet.
It could be said that Kaela’s sitting in the position of warrior commander was the best choice from Yulia’s point of view, and the best result from Klaus’ point of view.
“I’m a little worried about whether the soldiers will really follow Kayla. She thinks she knows well about the demons, but she doesn’t know the details of the demon king’s soldiers.”
In fact, he knows all of the soldiers’ names and family details.
I’ve seen so many of them, so now I’ve come to the point where I memorize them like that.
Even so, Klaus muttered that with a slight worry.
It was to stimulate Yulia little by little, who would now show the appearance of the Demon King in earnest.
“Does not matter. Although Heetari was the one chosen by his father, so I believed in him, but they are all my new picks. They would have left long ago if they were disappointed in me and left just because another race took over the position of warrior commander.”
“Can you be sure? Right away, Heetari also betrayed your trust, Yulia, and turned its back on you.”
“Yeah. I’m sure. At least I’m sure of them, of those soldiers I handpicked. Klaus.”
Yulia used to say in previous episodes that it had a unique feeling.
In the case of Heetari, I had seen it since I was very young, so I didn’t notice it.
Afterwards, as he matured and the moment when he had to explore the other person in earnest approached, there was a sense of knowing who to trust and who not to trust, although it was impossible to explain in words.
Klaus knows that it’s not a lie.
As she said, Yulia was a woman who really had that feeling.
So there were no traitors among most of the loyalists except for Heetari.
Above all, thanks to the development of the skills and characteristics that this side has, that part has become much stronger.
“If Kaela does what you say, her soldiers will follow her. Originally, among the demons, no matter how bad a strong person is, they believe that there is a reason to follow them at least once. Not to mention, having played an active part in the Continental War as your lieutenant and personally confirming her skills as Caela, I’m sure she’ll soon be silent and accept her as her warrior commander.”
“… If you say so, I will think so too.”
When Klaus answered that while lowering her head, Yulia smiled appreciatively and sat down in her own seat.
According to her original flow, she semi-forcibly awakens in anger and hatred, becoming a tyrant who literally wipes out everything in the West, not to mention traitors.
However, after Klaus intervened, she transformed into a much superior being in a much faster time than in the original novel by making her feel the calmness and comfort that were the original conditions for her awakening.
When I saw her for the first time at the academy, she seemed urgent as if she was being chased by something, and she even said a shocking thing to Klaus, who didn’t even mix her words properly, that she would give up even herself.
But as her Klaus bowed herself down first and cared for her as best she could, in just a few months she had grown to an unbelievable level.
Klaus completed her preparation perfectly as Klaus did, but the proof was that Julia also acted and made decisions without hesitation, as if she had been thinking about various things in the meantime.
“Now, it’s time to catch all the guys and their gangs who dared to get information from the disgusting traitor and pass it on to your goddamn uncle.”
“You don’t execute Heetari first.”
“Is it late. If we wait any longer, I’m sure they’ll soon get word that Heetari has been destroyed. Before that, I’m thinking of getting rid of them all, Klaus. If there is anything wrong with my decision, let me know.”
Klaus shook his head slowly, saying that there was no way.
Yulia’s choice was the right one, so those who heard the news of the replacement of the warrior chief quickly erased their traces and disappeared among the other demons.
Originally, Klaus would try and catch them first, but now, even if he didn’t do that, it wasn’t necessary because Yulia pointed out the core of her on her own.
However, the problem was that there were no talented people by her side yet.
“Lir, she caught them by the tail thanks to that woman. But what does she think about letting her do her and hers, Klaus?”
“Unfortunately, Lire is not yet at that level. Their gang is not concentrated in one place, but rather spread out in all directions, so even if there is a slight commotion on one side, they can leave immediately.”
“Skill is skill, but you also need the speed to finish the job right away and the cool-headedness to not put mercy in your hands. Umm… Kaela is already in the position of the warrior commander, so I can’t get her out, and to my shame, there’s no one more worthy of use besides you.”
“The one who follows me is Yulia, the one who follows you, so what’s the problem? In that sense, I thought I’d try making a recommendation this time.”
Klaus’ judgment always yielded the best results.
So Julia, who was waiting for his words this time, tilted her head as if another unexpected name came out of Klaus’s mouth, as if that wasn’t the case no matter how much she thought about it.
“Hey, Klaus. Didn’t I really recommend it this time? Something… Doesn’t it suit you quite well?”
“Take out the trash and clean up the dirty. Isn’t that already a perfect pass?”
“No… That’s a bit strange, to be honest. With that job in her outfit, she’s going to take care of those nasty bastards…”
“You will do just fine. Trust me, Yulia.”
“Of course you believe. I just…”
“Are you afraid that she might take credit for her and mention what Yulia did to her?”
In response to Klaus’s question, Julia asks what he is talking about.
I don’t know if I really don’t think of it or if I’m acting like that.
Klaus smiled and parted his lips.
“You can do a little cute things outside of work. I said, maybe?”
“That, that was just my intention to educate that cheeky demon!”
“However, the person concerned will think that this is a very good opportunity and will try.”
“Oops! All, no other characters?! I will take other recommendations too!”
Klaus burst into laughter at Yulia’s scream.
Unfortunately, no one could do this job as well as she did.
And as much as she did, of course she didn’t have ‘enjoyment’ of this job either.

The innkeeper left the inn for a while and left.
They have news to send to the man who planted them here.
I didn’t know the exact part of what was written in the letter, but I was sure that it was related to the return of the demon king.
Arriving at the designated place, he confirmed that those who should have arrived first had marked them, and went inside with a relieved look.
In this way, they made a mark that only they knew, and took measures so that they could leave immediately in case there was a traitor or their identity was exposed.
‘Let’s quickly collect the information and send it back.’
The moment the innkeeper thought so and just stepped out.
Suddenly, there was a dull shock, and the moment before my eyes went dark.
I don’t know if he lost his mind or if he covered his face with something.
But what is certain is that his body was thrown to the floor shortly after.
“Kuuk!”
The innkeeper, who was rolling on the floor, finally felt the light in front of him.
He hurriedly rose from his seat and immediately grasped the situation.
Other than himself, those who secretly sneaked into the castle with the same mission as himself.
Some were merchants, some were passers-by, and some were pulling heavy carts.
“To you…”
“It looks like it was discovered.”
Everyone panics and panics at the sudden situation.
I started to hear a very clear sound from the front.
Soon, what appeared in front of them was a woman wearing a very neat maid outfit.
It was a silver-haired maid standing with her hands together on her belly button in the most respectful manner in the world.
“Hello everyone. I am Maid Planche.”
“Me, maid… ?”
“That’s right. A direct maid under Klaus-sama, and at the same time…”
Sreureung-.
Holding two daggers each emitting cold anticipation.
Planche continued her words with a gentle smile.
“I have been ordered to dispose of the garbage today.”
