Chapter 460 – Unite the Kingdom #9
Reconnaissance is complete. For the elite soldiers who rolled and rolled as veterans of the demon king’s army, searching for monsters in the back mountain was no different from child’s play.
Nancya, the pixie, grasps the terrain and the expected encounter point, and Imjiro sets the direction with her sensitive sense of smell. That’s how I captured a place where wild monsters might be.
“Well done! Twenty-seven then! Form a siege!”
The Dark Elf platoon leader, Lukata, shouted and the twenty-seven pulled out their sticks.
“Keruk! Boys! It’s time to move! Grab clubs and nets and deploy the siege!”
“Keryaaaaak!”
“Recruit, recruit! Keruk!”
“Fresh recruits enlist as volunteers! Kerruk!”
Excited goblin infantry forms an encirclement. So the recruiters advanced, and a goblin den appeared in front of them.
“Keruk!”
“Kereuuk…!”
Frightened wild goblins run into the cave. I had deployed a siege net at best. I went inside without running out. If so, it’s even easier.
“Enter!”
“Keruk!”
Immediately, the goblin troops entered the cave.
“Keryaaak!”
“Kereuugh!”
Frightened, wild goblins flee into the depths in full frenzy. Seeing the wild goblins like that, the goblin squad members thought.
They are too small and weak beings.
And even the edge of intellect is not felt. Low-lying monsters that are just beasts. In the past, they were also like this. However, thanks to the Demon King’s grace, his clear ego and rationality were awakened and he gained powerful strength.
A god-like being.
Because of the Demon King, they were reborn, became warriors, and trained as soldiers. There are reliable comrades and comfortable lodgings. And there are delicious meals.
The being trembling in that cave was reborn as an honorable warrior. If you think about that, Maou-sama is truly a god-like being!
“Be kind to the new recruits! Keruk!”
“Congratulations on volunteering, Keruk!”
“Keryak! You can stamp here!”
Let the troops gently swing their sticks.
—-Bah!
ㅡ Pleasant!
“Karyaaaaagh!”
“Kereuuugh!”
The wild goblins are beaten one by one and fall to the ground. Throw the net in that state and pull it out.
“Kreukreuk!”
“Good job!”
The wild goblins who were dragged away struggled, but escape was impossible. The corps members outside immediately restrained the monsters.
“Keruuugh! Very good from the start!”
In this way, the unit members swept all over the mountains, beating up new recruits and enlisting as volunteers.
“Gyusaaah!”
“Gyusasasasasasasas!”
The wild monsters could never escape from the demon lord’s army. Goblins and kobolds are all beaten and captured one by one. Imps that were occasionally found were a kind of bonus.
“Keruk! It’s been a while! I ate a lot when I was in a dungeon!”
While working so hard, they also catch and roast things like large lizards and fleshy spiders. Originally, whatever you do, you have to take care of yourself and eat.
“Eh! These berries don’t taste good! It seems our tongues are too used to sweets!”
“I’m sure… That’s right. Back in the day, I ate tough meat and bitter grass. These days, I like soft bread and ham with spices.”
At Nancya’s words, Lukata nodded her head in sympathy.
“Keruk. That’s right.”
“Kureuk. That’s right.”
Twenty-seven and Imjiro also agreed.
Hunting and wild fruit in the past. And they were satisfied with just eating insects. But not now. Soft bread or dessert. Fried food. Or better yet, processed meats with lots of spices.
Of course, that would be growth.
“Let’s finish work quickly and go back to eat dessert!”
Nancya shouted loudly, and everyone nodded.
“Then I’ll give this to the new recruits. Keruk.”
ㅡChhak.
The wild food they ate was thrown to the captured recruits.
“Kera ugh!”
“Kerrrrrrrrr!”
Guys who gobble it up.
“Keruk. You guys will soon be like us.”
The 27-year-old looked at them happily and said a word. Right now they are just lowly beasts, but after being baptized by the Demon King, they will become honorable warriors like them.
“Then let’s do the work again! Conduct reconnaissance!”
“Kkeuk!”
The day of the recruits passed like that.
* *
Captured recruits are bound and transported to the city.
“Huh.”
“Oh my gosh.”
When I went, the Dark Priest was preparing manpower. Then, after putting the recruits in cages and leaving them with the guards, the next day, they continue their daily routine of climbing the mountain again.
When the procession of the ascending carriage, which secured a large number of recruits and went up to the center, appeared, the recruiting corps members followed the procession with the new recruits.
“Kerukkereuk. Burir will praise you.”
“Lim Soong-nim is like that too. Kkeureuk.”
“Serine will like it too!”
Rows of restrained recruits are crying out in the back, but that’s okay.
You’ve accomplished your mission, and you’ll go and get praised. As a bonus, you could tell your comrades about this special mission and brag about it.
When I think about it, I start to get excited.
“Keruk! Let’s brag to our comrades! Our achievements!”
“We can do well together!”
“Yes!”
“Good.”
In this way, the members of the recruiting unit returned to the capital while talking happily.
* * *
Dragon riding.
“Okay! Hold! Move!”
“Purr…”
I got on the saddle mounted on Hold’s back and pulled the string. But this kid doesn’t even try to move. It’s not like I’m allowed to go up and sit down, it’s just a good feeling because I just don’t have the will.
“Hey! Move!”
“…”
I feel like he’s bothered by everything.
Doesn’t care what I do sitting on top.
“This.”
It’s good to be quiet, but it’s useless. I want to somehow train myself to fly… But should I use that method?
“Hey. Hold. If you don’t listen, won’t you give me magic power?”
“Grrr…”
Feeling of not being heard.
“Move!”
ㅡJiing!
He immediately injected a small amount of mana into Hold.
“Greuk…!”
Only then does he react to something. But that’s only for a while. He stops moving for a second. But it did change a bit. I put the lower part of my neck on the floor while grunting as if I was feeling better.
“I can’t do it. You know you won’t have any magic tomorrow.”
I need to change the way I tame them. In the future, if the child moves when I get on top of it after starving myself for some magic, I need to inject it right then.
“It’s very difficult. I don’t even know how to deal with the changed hold.”
“It’ll work if you do it. In the first place, it would be impossible to tame this in a day or two. Anyway, starting tomorrow, I’m planning to introduce a new breeding method. Let’s watch the progress.”
It would be nice if only this was trained well.
At times like this, it’s a pity that this is a monster. How do you eat a dragon? Anyway, I have no interest in that kind of thing.
Actually, Hold’s main body is in the form of a woman, so if he could somehow find his true self and then commit a crime, it would be a breeze.
Anyway, let’s go leisurely.
ㅡRemember.
After getting off the saddle like that, I’m going to do the next thing.
ㅡ Booung!
Serinyu flew in.
“Uh, why. Serinyu.”
“The recruits are back! It’s the third recruit!”
“Third? Oh, is that where the twenty-seventh and I are assigned?”
“There’s Nancy too!”
“Hey! These guys came quickly? Let’s go right away!”
“Yes!”
Some time has passed since I ordered the new recruits to be recruited. Even so, to complete the mission and return so quickly. How much did the kids really do? I am very much looking forward to it.
Hehe! Yes! There’s no way the invincible Culse Demon King’s kids couldn’t do something like this! They must have hit the jackpot! That’s right, Serinyu!”
“I’m looking forward to it too…!”
ㅡPay!
So, I headed to the parade ground with Serinyu.
I went.
“Keruk! Demon Lord!”
“Kreukreuk!”
The children of my proud Demon King Army recruiting unit gathered at the parade ground! And what’s behind them is… A bunch of wild recruits tangled together like clams!
—-Kereugh…!
ㅡKeruk!
ㅡ Kreukreuk!
They were screaming distractingly and wiggling their bodies! Of course, you can’t escape because you’re imprisoned! Anyway! These guys have captured these new recruits just perfectly!
“Yeah!”
You are doing so well!
“You bastards! Your first expedition mission was a perfect successhaha! Guys, come here! Serinyu! Go and call them all with your friends and kids! Their mission has been a great success!”
“Yes!”
I shouted and ran to my men!
“Good job, good job!”
“Keruk! It’s an honor!”
“Kreurreuk!”
I hugged each of my subordinates who had gathered like that and congratulated them. And then I heard the story.
“No problem! Just doing it as usual! Keruk!”
“Yes. I don’t know if it’s because of the church, but it was simple.”
“Yeah! It was just a picnic!”
They said it wasn’t a big deal at all.
“It must be proof that you guys have become strong and competent enough to feel easy! Anyway, you did really well! You demon lord! I was very satisfied! Now, since you’ve been on an expedition, I’ll give you a vacation! I’ll give you a prize money, so come and eat something delicious!”
“Kereuuugh!”
“First of all, go unpack and organize. I’ll congratulate you all while presenting in the evening!”
“Kreurreuk!”
As I was giving compliments, Buril and the other kids came running.
“Keruk?!
“Oh! It’s just awesome!”
“Keryaaaaak! What did I say! This is just basic, basic! 27-year-old! You did a great job!”
“Kerukkereuk! Thank you, Mr. Buril!”
It’s just so damn good.
Hehe, call. That’s it for now. Are you ready?”
“Are you talking about congratulatory speeches for new recruits?”
“Uh.”
“It’s all done. Can I put them in? Keruk.”
“Do that. I’m planning to baptize after everything is organized.”
“I know!”
ㅡRemember!
Buril saluted.
“Great.”
With this, the new recruits were expanded. Of course, there are other recruiting units besides them. If they bring in this many new recruits, it’s really great.
Then let’s clean things up and start baptizing new recruits.
“…No.”
Monsters exposed to my magic become stronger instead of losing their sexual desire. In a word, instead of becoming impossible to reproduce, it becomes stronger.
I don’t know what it will be like later, but it wouldn’t be bad to try breeding it once as if you were raising a few.
“Great.”
Recruitment plan.
Let’s push this too.
