Chapter 44 :The Northern Front
The emergence of Heroes was quite dangerous, even amongst the Devil Army.
In the past, the demon king appeared many times but, the Heroes were like natural enemies for the demon king.
The reason was in the habit of the demonic group.
Devilkind who obey the strongest person, will fall completely into state of chaos when demon king is defeated.
It would be great if the next strongest person acted as a replacement for the demon king, but even that person is in a state of chaos too, so no one can fight
The Heroes who punished the demons in the past, cut into enemy team deeply, and they beat down the devil by direct confrontation. It is the weakest point for the demons.
However, there are various method for preparing a shadow warrior and growing successor.
But the real issue is, whether demonkind feeling to accept them or not &h.e.l.lip; &h.e.l.lip; it is probably impossible. This is not a theory.
There is no replacement for the Demon King.
Even if there were someone powerful in the same as the demon king, he must also raised up his own strength again from the start.
“Making a difficult face again&h.e.l.lip;”
‘Wha!?’
bittersweet voice was muttered close to my ear, i turn my head abruptly.
“Yahoo~, Movi chan here.”
Master wave his hand unnaturally, it’s almost as if like a children
“Master, did not you give up that d.a.m.n nickname yet?”
“Parents who give the nickname ‘Gomovila’ to their beloved daughter are not bad you know ”
I always held a grudge.
I know the character of my master well, but Master was unexpectedly depressed at such a joke. I tried to ignore it to forcibly make my surroundings more peaceful.
“Is Master interested in the Hero too?”
“&h.e.l.lip; Well..”
It was a curt reply but, Master’s anguish had been transmitted clearly.
The Demon King Freedenrichter , the Giant Tiberito, the Great Sage Gomovila. They were comrades from the time of raising the demon army.
On the northern front, there was the officer Tiberito, and the Hero aims at the Demon King. I worried about both.
While I looked at the young profile of my master, I remembered the deal with businessman Maou.
The Hero was in the northern part of Schubelm.
It seemed that Maou ‘s subordinate was infiltrating it, so it may be good to ask Master go have a look.
There may be some information that can cheer up the Master.
“Master, if you do not mind, we would like you to forward to the north”
“To the north?”
I explained the circ.u.mstances to the Master.
Master seemed to be thinking, and muttered.
“Well &h.e.l.lip; I see &h.e.l.lip; it is a human spy. It’s not a trap, right?”
“I do not know”
If the enemy set up an ambush, we would run away at full power. We wolves are st.u.r.dier than an infantry and faster than a cavalry. It would be managed somehow.
“However this information is from trader, he have no reason to betray me. It doesn’t make a benefit after all.”
“Whether it’s because price money from Miraldia, or maybe because religious reason, is that area really safe?”
“For going that far&h.e.l.lip;”
“There’s a low possibility that Miraldia put money reward on me.” As I am one of the aide. .
Also, as long as I let Monza investigate, Mao would be a moonlight believer, the type who was not too enthusiastic. There is no religious reason to dislike the demonkind.
There was a possibility that it’s someone grudge against demonkind, and it can be anyone. So I decided not to worry about it.
“You , are there an awareness that I am the key figure of the Devil King’s army?”
“
Although there is heavy responsibility in governing Ryun Height, even if I died, Arilia and officer Kurtz would have to do something for me.
“Comple&h.e.l.lip; well&h.e.l.lip;well, it would probably be simple to escape, if I stay with you”
The Master sighed, and jumped off effortlessly from the chair.
“Schubelm will hold forward team from the enemy ground. It would be better if we wait”
While waiting for the Master to finish the necessary ceremony for transfer, I went ahead and finished the office work today. The details are entrusted to Arilia.
And then with master magic, we leap to the northern agricultural city bachen.
“uwaa &h.e.l.lip; &h.e.l.lip;.”
This was the first word that came out of my mouth , bachen was such disaster.. There were two reasons.
The first was the cityscape.
Buchhen’s infrastructure had completely stopped functioning because of the destruction from the invasion of the second division.
There were only agricultural establishments and the waterways were also being controlled carefully, but everywhere was decimated. In the drinking place red/black mud was acc.u.mulating, the fountain which imitated a lion was knocked down.
Secondly, there was the second division of Devil King’s army.
The troops that could still fight were camping outside the city, but the injured soldiers in the city were moaning over and over.
An ogre soldier of a size as small as a human being was groaning with his arm wrapped in a blanket. However, one of the arm that should be there doesn’t exist. . If I think about it, a giantkind of about five meters got on the wall of a private house, his shoulder move motionlessly while breathing without staring still. It seemed that both eyes were pierced with a spear, and a bruise scar remains.
“just barely escaped &h.e.l.lip; &h.e.l.lip; I think&h.e.l.lip;.”
The Master was pretending to be calm, but he seemed to be very shocked.
Hundreds of soldiers were collapsing everywhere right at the road that entered into the castle gate. Some also were no longer breathing.
It seems there’s a private house somewhere turning to temporary hospital, I heard a tremendous scream. Probably he was cutting off the hands or feet.
Master look at me and said.
“Even though the main army have returned with a lot of hardships, it sad to leave them die like this. I will treat the wounded soldiers.”
“That is nice, but what about the Hero?”
“I’ll leave it to you, If something happens, come back here.”
It seemed that the injured soldiers were on tenterhooks , and as Master leaving it, so she began treating the soldier at hand with magic.
“Let me be blunt, I will not hold it. just block the wound immediately”
If the bothersome Master continued like this, there will be no way to stop it.
“Well, master, I will go by myself. I will return as quickly as possible”
“Umm, be careful, i’ll meet you afterwards. “
The Master was already treating the third soldier. The two giant soldier’s eyes were cracking while stroking the healed wound time after time.
Well, it can’t be helped&h.e.l.lip;&h.e.l.lip; i didn’t want an ally to die in front of my eyes.
“Take care of yourself Master, please don’t collapse again after using to much magical power. .”
“It’s okay, there’s that guy Tiberito here. I’ll give my regards afterwards.”
As I transformed, I ran through the castle gate of Bahen. Outside the castle gate, I glance at wide field of wheat beside me while running to Schubelm.
Bahen was a city which supposed to supply food to the garrisoned army of Schubelm, so the distance was quite close. With the leg power of a werewolf, who are faster than horses, the arrival could be in the night.
