Sent To Isekai As Demon King's
Eps 23: A Declaration
General Azuma stood on the wall of the northern part of the city of Galdazar. He stood there watching the Galatian Hill to the north. The darkness of the night sky, only the moon's reflected light, made him only able to see the shadow of the dense trees in the distance.
Before long, the sound of an army of knights riding sounded. About 10 knights on horseback were seen approaching the wall where he was. Then, someone who seemed to be the leader of the scout force faced him.
“Report! We didn't find anything. But, we found thousands of footprints that look still new.” Report the Knight to him. “There are also some traces of where magic has just been used.” Added.
Meeting the Marquis in his mansion, he reported to him the same thing that his subordinates had reported to him. The marquis immediately thought after listening to him.
“We need to report this to the Nobles around and also to the King.” Marquis. “Count Dafin.”
“Siap, Mr.” Dafin answered the call.
“Send a letter about this news to His Majesty the King, Duke Zerestia, Count Blackwood, Count Virmanda, and Count Varitus. There is a possibility that a new Demon King has been born around here.” His word. “General Azuma.”
“Siap, Mr.” Azuma answered the call.
“Do a sweep from Galatia Hill in the north, to Redwood Forest in the west. Strengthen security in cities and villages.” His order.
“Create.” Tymphal General Azuma.
A large army was also deployed to comb and strengthen the city's defenses.
The initially stressful conditions have now been brought under control. However, the alert status is not over.
...*****...
On the same day. Morning time.
News of last night's events is still hotly discussed. There are rumors and rumors going around. One of them was the work of the Empire, and the other was about the birth of a new Demon King.
“It looks like I've made a fuss that is not needed.” Laciel.
They are now in the Adventurers Union Building of the Galdazar branch. Sit in a circle on a round table. They sat down and finished breakfast. Only Nameer was seen sleeping on Laciel's lap.
“Well, how else. Secretly brings fear. Brightness brings excitement. No matter what you do, it's all capable of making a King panic.” Nadja said after finishing her breakfast.
“Luckily Laciel can move them all with teleportation magic in time before the Marquis' scouting troops get to.” Hana speaking.
Back then, Laciel had summoned an army containing Skeletons, Wraiths, and Demons. But, his actions caused panic among the people in the city of Galdazar. Fortunately, before he was caught, he managed to avoid trouble by sending them all to the Red Skull Dungeon.
It's pretty quiet here. Several Orcs and Gnolls were given the task of keeping watch for the night at that time. Then, everything changed when Laciel came to bring a team capable of****** several villages at once.
“Groa! What's the matter?”
“Guk! Where did this Skeleton come from?”
The shriek due to the whole created by Laciel sounded simple. To calm him down, Laciel let out an aura of his. This was faster than shouting and revealing his identity.
“Your Highness Lucifer!”
“Your Majesty the Demon King!”
The cries rang out after the Orcs and Gnolls learned of the aura belonging to someone who united them under one shade.
With quick coordination, the commotion stopped, and the crowd entered the dungeon in droves. Now, Laciel is gathering with some important subordinates who have gained a name, either from him, or from Nadja.
The building was specially made by Garnamtiar for Laciel's stay, and some rooms could be used for bedrooms and meetings. In the room that looked like the meeting room, it had gathered several beings of different races.
On the front were three seats that Laciel occupied, and Hana and Nadja on his right and left respectively. Then, in order, in the other seats there was Garnamtiar the Orc, Medusa and Ygir Razen the Rajanaga, Reis the Gnoll, a Goblin who had met Laciel for the first time, a Skeleton that was dressed neatly like a Noble, one Wraith was purple, and the last was a Devil whose real name was Hazura.
As an opening, Laciel opened it by introducing the new “-people” he brought.
“The three of them are subordinates that I had just summoned a moment ago. And since we were also almost chased by the Marquis' army, I brought him here. You guys will call after this.” Laciel. Then his gaze turned to the Goblin.
Then Garnamtiar stood up.
“Your Majesty, this is the Chief of the Goblin Tribe who intends to join us.” He said introducing the new members in the dungeon.
“Include, Your Grace. I am the Chief of Tribe Akdarin.” The green-skinned Goblin said.
Then, the meeting continued by discussing the existing problems and plans in the future.
The first is food. Laciel asked this to Medusa as the Lord of the Dungeon.
“The one in charge of that is Shrin, wife of Garnamtiar, Your Highness.” Answer Medusa. “With some other Orcs, as well as now Goblin and Gnoll, he made farms and grew plants and vegetables that could be grown underground. Building on land is very dangerous. If only we could make the sunlight come in, or even make the sun ourselves, we would be able to have more food variants than we do now.”
“So,” muttered Laciel heard Medusa's report. “I'll find a way. But I can't guarantee it. Then, the issue of confidentiality. Are we still not found?”
Now Garnamtiar who answers as Head of Security Division.
“But, if this continues, Humans will be suspicious and start combing the Redwood Forest.” Ygir Razen. “Stay waiting until we are found.”
“Your Majesty, I have something to say.” Hazura the Devil
voice lifting.
Allowed Laciel, he then spoke, “With our current numbers and strength, it seems like we no longer need to fear if caught. Reducing movement on the ground just for fear of being discovered is simply limiting our strength and morale. Fighting is our way of life. Allow me to lead the troops, and I will win the battle for you, Your Majesty.”
“Yes, Your Honor. We are your accomplice.” Typhoon Garnamtiar.
“Give the order, we will annihilate those who go against His Majesty's will.” Added Medusa.
In order to keep the conditions conducive, Laciel raised a hand. He ordered everyone to be quiet.
When the conditions were calm, he said, “I ordered to hide myself is because at that time we were only a little. But, with you by my side, we need no longer be afraid to show ourselves before Man.
From now on, I declare the Redwood Forest to be our property. Where to hunt, grow crops, and where we live. But still, the longer we're known to be the better. That gives us time to get stronger.”
Hearing him, the others cheered in agreement. Now they are moving into a new era.
“Then, what about our governing structure? If structured, it will make the information easily scattered, and become more coordinated.” Hana's Advice.
Before giving the order, I will measure the strength of my subordinates first. Inner Laciel then cast an Appraisal spell.
Hmm, Hana, Nadja, Garnamtiar, Medusa, and Ygir Razen are still the same. Each of their combat powers are A, A+, C+, A, and B. Besides them, I just saw it. Inner Laciel read their status all. What intrigued me was the question mark on my combat power. Is it not limited? I seem too arrogant to think so.
Corrupt nobles and famous Assassins from the past? I'm less interested. What was interesting was precisely the 7 Artifacts from the Devil World that Hazura possessed. If you could have it all, what would happen, huh?
