Clown’s note: I bet you’re sick and tired of hearing this, but: I’e ment in the 4th Circuit for a 42 USC § 1983 action… I’ll see if I can finish another chapter soon

Demon Lord’s Gambit Arc

135 After the Incident

Leon’s subordinate, a knight clad in silver, Alrose suddenly appeared beforeeven a ed infor your assistance!」

He exclaireed on a formal alliance?

I ation to assist, but…

Oh well

I guess this gives me a chance to steal Leon’s prey…

Besides it would suck if Leon just kicked the bucket froain

That kind of dangerous guy needs to be killed as soon as possible

I guess I ht this…」

I decided to interrupt Alrose, and said

「Actually, I’ll just tap into yourfor approval

And easily established a thought-link He did consent to it… afterwards

I then contacted Beniation preparations

Even as I was coh space towards the battlefield

This is the first time I rely on others’ coordinates to htly anxious, I have faith in Raphael’s support

Thus, without a single blunder, we successfully appeared in the skies above the battlefield Shion was surely running late

But I have Ranga in my shadows, and I can just sus first is to save Leon…

Is what I thought

But by then Yuuki had already escaped What the hell Seriously?

Now then, these is the current state of affairs

The land was defor a wonderful battle Pieces of the ed out, and the nearby forests rotted

The grounds itself reeks of death, and a single (beautiful) crater was in the center of it

The size of the crater basically tells a style battle

But wait… aren’t we over the Dwarf’s Kingdodom itself, with the battle at this scale I wonder if they caused any earthquakes

By the looks of it, I can expect at least ht be some casualties

This isn’t a volcano, but if an earthquake is bad, people doo see the Dwarf’s Kingdo I said hi」

「Ay, understood What about the eneerous anymore, so don’t worry

And please try to be polite」

「Ay!」

I sent Shion off

Shion’s entourage follow suit She trains thenize three people with her Aren’t those De another Demon Lord’s sons to battle?

…what do I care? I’ll just pretend I didn’t know I’m not responsible! Not hoorks, you say? Nope! If it bothers you, you lose

So let’s pretend I never thought any of this Rather, let’s go talk to Leon

「Well, well, well Leon, care to explain?」

Leon is sorting through so out a red lump of… oh, it’s parts of a wo the woht

When he was finished, he finally looked at et it?”

I do get it~!

I wanted to scream at him,

「I want to hear it from you」

I responded with a smile

Did I just see a vein pop on his head?

Is this silent gentleirl would he still be uess he would Definitely

「We too like to hear an explanation Of course, in grand detail, Leon」

Wonderfully ties

Seems like Leon sent for Ruminas as well And she actually came to help!?

She actually came when called by a person she barely knows?

「Hht I could handle that huet away I underestimated him」

Leon confessed e both pressed on

But before he explained what had occurred

In the ant tea set

The Seven Sages began preparing tea As Ru relaxed on a sofa they set, and Leon was sitting in an elegant chair

Hey… just how coe with a young voice directed me into a comfortable chair And I sat

It was really co Ruminas Our tea party would have seeuess I shouldn’t an explaining

In short, after my visit Leon decided to attack Yuuki alone And the result is as we see here

There’s two reasons why he didn’t invite us

He underestimated Yuuki and didn’t want to reveal his power

「In other words, if we fought together would you fight at full strength?」

Ru to Leon’s question

「Why, of course ould We trust thee」

Ruminas responded with a smile

What a blatant lie Wait, weren’t ets erased or sos who have surpassed the bounds of flesh, those who achieved spirit bodies are able to lie≫

Ah, I see

I guess Mili it’s alright Whether that’s right or not, who knows, but let’s proceed on this assumption for now

As for Ruminas’ lie–well, ht with all her ed the outcome at all
