NT: And it’s like, when I had classes to learn English at my school, it was something like–
Me: Why should this be written like this?
Teacher: Because that’s the way it should be.
Me: I understand (he does coo his teacher says)
But now, when I try to translate these things, or when I try to write anything in English, it’s something like that.
Me: Why should this be written like this?
Internet: Because that’s the way it should be.
Me: You lie! (he does it his way)
… And that’s why I stopped editing too much the text that the Google Translator gives me unless it has clearly been mistranslated for X reason.
Do you know what is the funniest? That I was good, but of course, there is this issue, I “was” good. I should check my old notebooks to remember everything and so make fewer silly mistakes while doing this version …
「Krull is on the top floor of the tower… that you can see over there」
Said the King as he pointed to a slender tower in the distance. The top of that tower was slightly higher than the tower where the Throne Room was, and to reach it was necessary to climb from the first floor to the top, or jump directly from the top of the tower where it was located the Throne Room and sneak into the other tower entering through a small window that could be seen at its top.
「Why is she in that place…?」
「Krull is still in his testing phase. Now she just have to wait to receive my baptism」
「What do you mean by that?」
「She has been blessed with a great Role, however, lacking the ability and determination to use it properly. I thought that it would be enough to brainwash her to return her will to fight, but… I never thought that such an absurd idea as to abandon his mission of Subjugating the Demon King would occur to her. Seriously, I could not believe what I heard from Palna… What a shame」
「That’s why… what are you talking about? What will you do now that she no longer has any intention of Subjugating the Demon King?」
「This time I will not only return her will to fight. This time I will apply my brainwashing to the depths of her brain」
The King explained as if it was nothing without even changing his facial expression.
「My Skills gives me the power to rewrite what my will dictates in the deepest of people through with a continuous Brainwashing. My brainwashing can continue to be carried out as long as there is no interference during the process… That’s why I put Krull in quarantine. So don’t get in the way」
At that moment, Kagami immediately started running towards the tower that was next to the Throne Room with the intention of releasing Krull and stop the brainwashing, then, when he was near the shore, he kicked the ground with all his strength to jump.
「Huh!? What!?」
However, just at the moment he jumped, Kagami crashed into some invisible structure, which caused him to bounce backwards.
「It’s useless. You and your friends will no longer be able to leave the Throne Room. And … do not even think that you can destroy it either. No matter how powerful the blow you give to destroy this place, it is completely repelled. That is the effect of the barrier that surrounds this place」
After hearing the King’s statement, Alice quickly ran back to the door of the Throne Room to return the way they came. However, the moment she touched the door, her hands were repelled by the same barrier Kagami had hit.
At the same time, Menou touche the wall of the Throne Room, after which he muttered, 「It seems that we are trapped inside his barrier」, confirming the words of the King.
「Let us out please! If we don’t go out, Krull-san…! Krull-san!」
「Calm down, Alice. If we can’t interfere with force, then we will do it with words」
Immediately after Kagami said that, he took a deep breath and, 「Krull! We come to save you! Wake up! 」He shouted that with all his might.
However, after that, the only response he received was the King’s laughter, who seemed to find Kagami’s actions amusing.
「It’s useless. This barrier blocks even the sound. In addition, I also raised a barrier equal to this around the tower where Krull is… Although it is not as powerful as this. Even so, your voice will not reach her 」
A total blockade. Kagami could not help but frown before the disadvantageous situation they were in while looking at the King.
「Don’t be like that. We should talk… Is not that why you came for? to speak with me?」
Alice and Kagami showed expressions of bewilderment at hearing those unexpected words.
Kagami understood that the King really intended to hear what he had to say, after seeing how neither he nor Palna and Militaria, who were with him, were preparing to fight.
Then, trusting in his words, Kagami reassembled and confronted the King with a proud attitude.
「I would like to create a ceasefire agreement between Humans and Demons. We should not fight. We are not different from each other. We, who are standing here next to each other, are proof of that 」
「Oh… Certainly, you seem to be able to coexist without problems」
The King said as he looked at Alice and Menou.
「But that is impossible」
However, the King still responded in that way with total naturalness.
「Why? Is it because the Demons are responsible for the emergence of the Monsters?… It is not as if the Demons caused the Monsters to appear intentionally! If you say that because you think the Monsters are bad, then you should try to think of some way to deal with them with the Demons!」
「 With the demons?… How funny. So I ask you, with whom should I make that agreement? With the Demon over there? Or with you, a Human? Who will be the representative? 」
「The representative will be him… The Demon King」
The moment he heard those words, the King turned his gaze to the Demon King. The overwhelming amount of Magic Power emanating from his body left no room for others to doubt that he really was the Demon King. However, the King did not alter in the least after knowing that he had the Demon King in front of his eyes.
「The Demon King… Agrees to agree a ceasefire with Humans! He has realized the strange situation that the world is living today! That’s why, King! Recognize the ceasefire and help us change the world!」
Kagami shouted at the King with the greatest sincerity he could.
「Do you know it? If we kill the Demon King… the world will Reset. After defeating the Demon King, we will all lose our memory and another Demon King will be born. No matter how long the Humans and the Demons continue to fight, this cycle will only be repeated over and over again!」
Then Kagami told the King the truth about this world, which had been revealed to him by the Dark Dragon and Estellar.
「What do you mean?」
Palna, who had been unable to hide her astonishment after hearing those words, involuntarily asked that.
However, the King and Militaria only slightly moved their eyebrows, without being particularly surprised, after hearing those words.
「Where did… you hear that?」
The King asked shortly after.
「From Estellar… and the Dark Dragon. I heard it from the two of them, who claimed to be the ones who maintained the functioning of the System of this world 」
The King smiled involuntarily after hearing that response. Then, his smile began to grow bigger and bigger until-.
「Fufufufufu- … Fuahahahahaha!」
– This turn into laughter.
「So is! That’s exactly what matters!」
Not only Kagami, but even the Demon King frowned in confusion after hearing the King’s inexplicable words.
Kagami, who suddenly felt like he was being treated as an idiot who knew absolutely nothing, kept quiet and waited for the King to keep talking. Then…
「I already knew it. I know we must send powerful people to face the Demon King to provoke the Reset」
He said that with a satisfied look.
「… What does that mean?」
「I do not know how you did it, but it seems you could meet Estellar and the Dark Dragon, isn’t it? So what do you think? A Demon and a Monsters control not only the functions of this world, but even the Humans… What do you think about the existence of such beings that maintain the functions of this world?」
Kagami opened her eyes completely after hearing those words.
