There is a room in the castle of Tarz, a huge table in the center of the castle where the leaders of the knights and officials gather to discuss the future of the country.
Currently, there are people from several countries here.
Today is the day to make contact with the "Colorless Demon King" with representatives of the Yugra religion.
First, from Taze, Marith, Lord Raggedy.
In addition to Pope Eupharo and Yokus, the three archbishops from Mejlis who have remained in Taiz for some time are also present.
One of them is Maja, the head of the Taiz branch.
The other two are the two Archbishops of Mejlis.
One is Archbishop Ucka, whom I know well, Lacla's mentor and someone I met during the incident with Raheit.
The other, an elderly man with a very dour expression on his face.
Archbishop Serraes, the most influential of the Yugoslavian archbishops.
Archbishop Uca and Archbishop Serraes are the ones chosen by Pope Eupharo, although Maja is in charge of the region.
Their positions are almost polar opposites.
Archbishop Uca is a moderate, or to be more specific, he tacitly accepts our way of being to some extent.
Archbishop Serraes, on the other hand, is loudly denying our way of being.
I am told that he is even more hard-headed than Yokus, which is quite scary.
......
Yeah, he's been staring at us for a while now, and it's not easy.
By the way, it's not just this earthling that's staring at you.
There are three people behind us.
The guards, Exoik, the Golden Demon Lord, and the Purple Demon Lord.
Both Demon Lords have never had contact with the Colorless Demon King before, and they want to see him.
If there is a Purple Demon Lord that has left a deep scar on the land of Mejis, the birthplace of the Yugra religion, it is no wonder that Archbishop Serraes, a man of strong faith, is upset.
In the event you have any questions regarding where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site.
That is the mask that covers her mouth.
This mask was prepared by the Yugra cult, and while wearing it, she cannot speak at all.
Its purpose is to block the power of the Purple Demon King's 'cage'.
You can find a lot of people who are looking for the best way to get the most out of their life.
In the event that you have any questions regarding where and the best way to get in touch with us, please do not hesitate to contact us.
I'm not sure what to say, but I'm going to say it. No need to say hello?
I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that.
Marito has agreed to be the host this time.
I'd rather not have Archbishop Serraes staring at me while I'm hosting.
Are you ready?
Yeah, I'll call it in then.
You take out the switch that the colorless Demon Lord gave you, which looks like it could be used in a quiz show, and place it on the table.
The fact that he's looking at me makes me very nervous.
What will I do if he doesn't press it?
If Archbishop Serraes hadn't been here, I would have liked to press the button as if it were a quiz show on Earth, but if I did that here, I might be killed by the stares.
But if I did that here, I would be killed with a look.
The response was: .......
"Oh, nice tea cake! Can I eat this?
The man appeared at the prepared place as if he had been there all along.
A man with his legs thrown over the table and an outlaw look on his face appeared.
He had dark hair, dark eyes, and the only clear difference between him and me was his dark skin.
He is the colorless Demon Lord, a man wearing a stealthy hood over his half-naked body, trying to blend in with the surrounding scenery.
"Yeah, no problem. Do you need me to explain the situation?
No, I'll just get the Archbishop and the Pope of Yugoslavia and we'll see.
The reaction of each of them to the sight of the colorless Demon Lord was to express their alarm.
Everyone in the room was focused on the point where this man would appear.
But in the end, the man only gave the illusion that he had been there all along, and of course, showed no signs of it.
"If you know me, we can talk quickly. I want to get the facts straight first.
"It's stressful to say the same thing. If you're talking about the fact that I've been turned into a demon by Yugra, the brave and white demon king, and that as a colorless demon king I'm obstructing the spread of Earth's language and knowledge, it's true. You can tell if he's lying or not if you're learning the methods he left behind.
"...... I see.
I'm not sure what to make of this.
I'm not sure what to make of this.
There is no particular reaction from the Archbishop's side except that ...... Archbishop Ucka is holding his head.
It is natural that they believe that Pope Euparo and Maja are not lying to them from the beginning, but Archbishop Serraes' lack of reaction is a bit scary.
"Whoa, there's the Golden Girls and the Purple Princess. This is the first time we've seen each other, right?
I'm not sure what to make of that.
"It's a regular meeting of the Demon Lord, and as a Demon Lord in name only, I feel uncomfortable interfering.
"Shall I ask you a few questions, mistress? The regular meetings of the mistresses were prepared by Kuro before Yugra made the mistresses Demon Lords and unleashed them to move freely.
I'm sure you're right. ...... was created by the Kuro Demon Lord.
I'm sure you'll be able to figure out what's going on. I'm sure you'll be able to find a lot more information on this in the future. If that's the case, Colorless, it's too late for you to appear there after you've become the Colorless Demon King. In the first place, Yugra said that the Colorless already existed when he set up the place for the regular meeting. In that light, your position is a little unclear.
"Good for you.
The colorless Demon Lord sips his tea as if to say he is not interested.
This tea is delicious, I'll ask Marito where he gets it next time.
But that conversation was a bit strange.
...... You mean you're not going to answer seriously?
You can't do anything but laugh when people ask you smart questions that anyone can think of with a little thought. You should think about it yourself. Come on, Earthling, you can give him a quick answer.
That was a killer pass, and I almost spurted out my tea.
Why are you shouting at me?
I don't want to linger with people who ask questions like this. Show me how smart you are. If you don't, this is the end of this conversation.
I was suddenly thrown a terrible challenge.
Originally, the Colorless Demon King was an acquaintance of Shigeya Yukura.
It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for, and how you can get it.
Even if you are not a demon king, there is a possibility that you can show up at the regular meetings.
It's just that you have to show your quick thinking. ...... Hmm.
I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out.
"I've been known to be a lax grader, so if I see effort, I'll at least be lenient. Can I have three answers?
I've been known to be lax in my grading, so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt if you try.
I'm sorry.
I'm not sure what to make of it.
I'm sure you'll be pleased to hear that.
Wait, wait, tell me how you came up with that answer out of nowhere.
Was I right?
No, no, no, it's true. I don't remember giving you a clue that would have given you that much information.
You tell people to think, but you ask questions.
Shut up, I'm taking your tea.
I don't want that. I'm going to take it as a souvenir for Wolfe. I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but I think it's a good idea. ...... The Colorless Demon King has known Seiya Yukura since he first came to this world. It's no wonder that they had a relationship where they studied magic together. The colorless demon king was completely behind the scenes, acting without any contact with the other demon lords, but he had a seat at the regular meetings to observe them. Seiya Yukura must have planned to incorporate the Colorless Demon Lord in this way from the beginning. He prepared the seat first and made up the facts later. In fact, it wasn't a demon king, but a demon tribe.
Oh, that's the best answer to the golden girl's question. Tell me where you're going with this.
I'm completely guessing from this point on, but it felt right, so I said it.
I take a sip of my tea and explain the flow.
The Gold Demon Lord and the Purple Demon Lord never knew or met the Colorless Demon Lord, who worked behind the scenes. However, there is a high possibility that the Kuro Demon Lord knows the Colorless Demon Lord because of his position as the one who sets up the regular meetings. What Seiya Yukura gave to the first Kuro Demon Lord he created was the power of Omnipotence, the majority of his own wisdom. If you take that into account, you can assume that Shigeya Yukura, the Colorless Demon King, and the Kuro Demon King knew each other from a relatively early stage. And the Kuro Demon Lord and the Colorless Demon Lord have a relationship other than being Demon Lords, they are either friends, collaborators, lovers, or family.
"Yes, that much of a guess makes sense. But I don't understand how you could have narrowed it down beyond that.
That's what you just said. You just said that the Gold Demon Lord is the Golden Girl and the Purple Demon Lord is the Purple Princess.
I'm not sure what you're talking about.
The gold girl and the purple princess are nicknames for the other's identity.
Among them, only the Kuro Demon King called her the Kuro Demon King. If they were friends or collaborators, there would have been no need to hide them, and they could have been called by their nicknames as well, but they did not. It seemed to me that he was deliberately hiding his relationship with the Kuro Demon King because if he called him by his usual name, the relationship would come to light. Moreover, you showed a slight resistance when I mentioned the Kuro Demon Lord's name. From this, I assume that you have a close relationship with him, and moreover, that he is somewhat beneath you rather than your equal. If this is the case, he is not a lover, but a family member, a parent and child, or a sister and brother. I'm not sure what to make of that.
I'm sure you'll be able to find a lot more information on this topic in the coming weeks.
It's a lot easier than learning magic.
It's a lot easier than learning magic. ...... Well, a promise is a promise, and I'll be here a little while longer.
I'm relieved to hear that you've passed.
It's a good idea to take a look at the website and see if you can find any useful information.
I'm sure you're not the only one.
"Understanding behavior? I'm not using it because I have an appointment with the Iliad.
Of course, if you use comprehension behavior to understand the other person and read their thoughts, the credibility of your argument will be greatly improved.
But even if you don't use them, you can naturally sense information such as discomfort.
If you just read them in a normal way and make a guess, it is not a burden and you can use it to a certain extent.
But when your life is at stake, you don't want to act with a lot of guesses.
"Mmmm ......, you're doing it.
"I think it's within Marito's power. Good luck, King Garne.
"Nuh, don't tell that foolish king what I just told you.
The rest of the story is a reconfirmation of what Marito and I had heard.
I'm not sure what to say, but I'm sure you'll understand.
In the process of researching resurrection magic, dimensional magic, and space-time magic, which Shigeya Yukura had declared forbidden, he was spotted by the creator of this world and was on a break.
The colorless demon king answered the question in a dutiful and troublesome manner.
It's the same thing over and over again. It feels like bureaucracy to me.
"Then I'll do it.
Then I'll do it." The one who raised his hand was Archbishop Serraes, whose voice I hadn't heard since I came here.
"Oh, what is it?
"Is there a way to completely destroy the Demon Lord?
The two men behind him reacted slightly to his words.
I'm sure you'll have some thoughts when you see the means to destroy yourself right in front of you.
I was afraid Duvvleor would jump out at me, but he seems to be holding back.
"Well, that's a good question in front of a demon lord. I'm not immortal, so one kill and I'm done, but the others are under the influence of resurrection magic.
So, do you have it?
Theoretically, yes. Theoretically, yes. But not for you.
What's that supposed to mean?
It's simple, they're immortal because they're under the influence of resurrection magic. Then cancel the effect of the resurrection spell. Reanimation spell is a spell on the soul, to cancel it, you have to get back the price you paid. The price paid by the Demon Lords, except Yugra, is their name in this world. But the names of the Demon Lords in this world have completely disappeared.
Isn't that theoretically impossible?
There are exceptions, you know, Earthlings?
What do you mean, "......"?
I'm not sure what to make of this.
How to destroy a demon lord, another thing I don't want to hear.
And I guessed, or rather, I remembered.
Yes, I remembered the contents of the book that had been at the center of all the commotion before, and that I wished I had never read.
I would like to play it off, but Pope Eupharo and Ms. Maja know what's going on.
We must avoid doing anything that will only make us look bad.
The book on the Blue Demon King that was kept in ...... Medis had the Blue Demon King's name written in it. ...... So you're saying that words from Earth (here) can be left behind?
I'm sure you'll agree. I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but it's a good idea. Only the Earthlings can decipher them. That's a shame, militant, because that man is on the Demon Lord's side at this point, right?
He's just trying to stir things up.
The Demon Lords are immortal and will live forever.
But there was a way to break the spell.
If you can give the names of the Demon Lords who disappeared from this world at the same time as the use of resurrection magic, the resurrection magic can be nullified.
And the pronunciation of those names had been completed in the language of the earth by Yugra beforehand.
I'm sure you'll be able to find something that will help you.
...... No, no, no, I don't want to take that risk!
This is a great way to get the most out of your business.
No one asked any new questions, as if there were no more questions to be asked.
Then, I would like to ask a question.
"Uh, I have another question, okay?
"Oh, good, 'Earthling'. Give me a smart question.
"Why did I get sent here from Earth?
Hey, that's the same question as before.
Well, give me the same answer, and this time I'll have someone who can spot a lie.
The colorless Demon Lord suddenly stopped his sullen expression.
The colorless demon king suddenly stops looking so serious, pauses for a moment, then exhales.
"Well, well, well. How could you possibly see through the lies?
"Well, well, well. How could you have known that I was lying? The place where I came to this world is the Mountain of the Kuro Demon Slayer, the place where your sister died. You know a lot of things, but when you say you don't know anything about it without giving it much thought, it just seems like you're cutting yourself off.
"Oh, yeah. I knew I shouldn't have lied. A lot of things came out. I'll keep quiet next time, I guess.
I don't care if you don't tell me. I'm just going to assume you know.
Earthlings are always such a pain in the ass, aren't they?
I'm very unhappy to be lumped in with the match-pumping bastards who created the Demon Lord and saved the world.
"Not everything is a lie. The only people in this world who had the possibility to use dimensional magic were Yugra, Kuro Sister, and me. If Yugra is waiting to be resurrected and I have no memory of it, there's only one person who could have summoned you to this world, right?
You mean the Kuro Demon Lord called me?
Yes.
The first Demon Lord I heard of, the Kuro Demon Lord, sent me to another world.
It's a great piece of information, but it doesn't quite make sense.
In any case, I had only recognized him as a demon king who was killed by slime.
You look like you're wondering why I'm here.
Of course not, I have no idea why you're calling me that.
I don't think they summoned you personally, you know? I've been living with my black sister and I can assure you that I never had the chance to get to know you.
I'm sure there's no way to get to know an earthling from another world who's living a safe life, and even if there was, it would be one of a vast amount of information, a grain of sand in the desert.
This is my guess, but I'm sure it's correct. "This is my guess, but it's probably right. And there's something bad in that place.
Slime.
A demon eater. It's an insurmountable entity. It eats anyone with magic, and the more magic it has, the more appetite it has. To be honest, even I can't get close to it.
Even the world's most powerful colorless demon lord is talking like this.
As a person who was attacked, I think it was really a miracle.
At the same time, it turned out that the slime was the top of the food chain in this world.
"Other people have been resurrected for decades. It wouldn't be surprising if the Kuro Sister had also been resurrected. But the moment she resurrects, she won't be able to escape in a nest of demon eaters, she'll be eaten the moment she resurrects and that will be the end.
I guess it's a similar situation to what happened in FPS games a long time ago, when people would try to kill you the moment you resurrected at a respawn point, aka risky kill.
If the slime is as powerful as a demon king, it will probably smell it and attack you even if you are a little far away.
The moment you become aware of your resurrection, you'll be preyed upon by the slime.
The Kuro Sister's goal, as you humans know, is to exterminate humans. But when she realized that she couldn't fulfill her ambition unless she continued to die in the nest of demon eaters, she tried to entrust her wish to someone else. In the event that you've got a lot of time, you may want to take a look at a few of these.
I'm sure you'll be able to understand why I'm here.
I'm not going to say that I have the ability or the desire to eradicate the human race.
It's not that I'm not interested in doing so.
But it's too sad to be transferred to another world because of such a thing.
Dimensional magic, or should I call it summoning magic in this case? A catalyst is needed for summoning magic. In order to summon another being from a different world, you need to have a cause and effect related to that being. The catalyst is probably the reason you were summoned.
I'm sure you'll be able to find something that will help you. I'm not sure if you'll be able to find a way to find out more about it.
There is, just one. Myself.
By yourself, do you mean the ...... Kuro Mad King himself?
Yes, if you're going to entrust your ambitions to someone close to you, you might as well do it yourself, right? I'm not sure what to make of it. And you're the result.
I don't get it.
I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out.
Are we alike, me and the Kuro Demon King?
"Kuro hair, black eyes, that's the only similarity in appearance. Our facial features, gender and talents are completely different.
The odds are too astronomical to be summoned with only hair and eyes to match.
It's not just that, in fact the most similarity is here.
The colorless demon king then slaps his chest.
You've got tits?
f*ck, it's bing bing. --No, it's the way the heart is. The black sister despaired of the world and hated everything in it, but ...... still loved the world. I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that. I'm sure you'll be able to find a lot more information on this in the future. I think you and my sister are similar in that respect.
You mean she's the type that can't be stopped once she's ignited.
It's not hard to understand that there are some symptoms of this, but ...... it's no longer.
I'm not going to say that I'm not interested in you, but I am interested in you.
I'm not interested in men.
I'm not into men. What I'm interested in is your future. You don't have any magic right now, you haven't fully accepted this world. But when you accept it, when you gain the same level of wisdom as Yugra, when you become steeped in the same ideology as Kuro Sister, I'm very much looking forward to seeing what kind of future you will show me.
...... Even if you say so, I just want to live a safe life.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, that's why I'm not going to be your enemy for now. I'll continue to be the guardian of order so that the people of this world won't mess with the taboo.
Thus ended the conversation with the Colorless Demon Lord.
I've got the reason why I was summoned, how to counteract the reanimation magic, and various other important information.
...... I feel like I've been beaten by the Colorless Demon King.
He deliberately revealed important information to the public.
If he had only wanted to disclose the information, he could have done so in the past.
But he dared to evade me once and made me set up another dialogue.
By doing so, he lured out the Yugoslavs and raised the importance of "me" in front of them.
This gave the Yugra cult the impression that I was not only a member of the Yugra people who had brought the Demon Lord into their fold, but also one of the means to destroy the Demon Lord, and even a pawn prepared by the Kuro Demon Lord.
Of course, it was more likely that His Holiness Eupharo and Maja would still be understanding.
But Archbishop Serraes' eyes ...... were not good.
In his eyes that were filled with disgust and denial, there was a sticky feeling like a hunter who has caught his prey.
Yugraism is not monolithic, and we must be on our guard.
No, it's not just Yugraism.
The Golden Demon King and the Purple Demon King have also raised the threat of me.
