Sent To Isekai As Demon King's
Eps 26: First Meeting

Spring, 25 March 1163 Zaenium.

Capital of Galdazar, March Harbisium, Zamara Kingdom.

Nightfall.

“So, can I help you, Marquis Harbisium?” Laciel asked in a light tone.

Four people other than him were shocked.

The marquis opened his hood. He looked surprised, but was more curious how the person before him could know himself.

“Should have been, this is the first time we met, right?” The marquis did not try to hide his surprise.

“Yes, knowing the basic information about who is the ruler of the region that I will stop by is a must for myself.” Laciel.

Well, that's true.

Under his cloak, the Marquis always wore a Necklace of Truth in some meetings. It was very useful, of course, to know the truth behind the interlocutor's words. For now, there has been no magic in the form of spells or items that can hide lies.

“But, it didn't answer my question earlier.” He said after not feeling anything from the necklace.

“Oh, really? I guess, you haven't answered my question yet either.” Reply Laciel.

“Laciel-san!” The Guild Master tried to stop Laciel from acting recklessly in the presence of a direct subordinate Royal Noble.

But the Marquis raised his hand. Asking the Guild Master to let it go. Now he's very interested in Laciel's personality.

“You how else. That's because you said something very suspicious. You ... are not an Empire spy, are you?”

“I have no intention of answering before you answer my question, Mr. Marquis. What are you calling me for?” Laciel still insisted.

“What if I answer it, you will also answer?”

“As before. I have no intention of answering before you answer.” Rework Laciel.

“Huft, okay. I came here, intending to recruit you and your comrades to become an additional team. You must have heard the news, right?” The marquis finally explained.

“True, I've heard it. That was very surprising once.” Answer Laciel. Of course I was very surprised. Successfully summon hundreds of Skeletons and Wraiths, and summon Devils, and wreak havoc on the March of Harbisium. It was very surprising and thrilling. His inner.

The marquis felt nothing from the necklace. That means, Laciel said honestly.

If he's lying about that surprise, then he's the mastermind. Because, if he was the mastermind, then he already knew it would happen like that, so was not surprised anymore. It seems like my little worries are very

is useless. Inner Marquis.

“Hah, right. I was also very surprised. It interrupts my night.” Said the Marquis in a slightly carefree tone. “So, back to my question. How did you know I was a Marquis? We've never met, and this is your first time here, right?”

“Oya, yes. It seems like you have a very long time to be able to read the reports of anyone entering the city Galdazar.” Laciel.

“That's because my subordinates heard something very interesting about you while in County Blackwood.” Reveal it.

Hear anything about me? Did he hear and believe the rumors about me who was a Devil? If that's what he heard, I don't know how else to tickle. Laciel was a little tense hearing the Marquis's words. “Haha, it seems like I'm a little famous lately. What information about myself do you hear?” tanyakanya.

“Hmm, not much. Only a rumor about you is said to be able to subdue the Blade Tiger and save a village from a Gnoll attack. The Blade Tiger was an animal that had high self-esteem and extraordinary abilities. It's hard to tame it. So, if you really do, then you must be a very strong person, regardless of your current ranking.” Answer Marquis.

“And I am so grateful for your help in saving the village. My army is still on a period of rest after fighting against the invasion of the Empire. So it should be, I'm giving you a gift for your work.” Further.

“If that's all you want, then there's no need. I've got the payment from Village Chief–yah, even though it's just a big meal at the party and overnight lodging–dan from the Adventurers Union.” Laciel. Phew, thankfully he only heard the good from me. Inner relieved.

“I came here, want to meet you to give this gift and recruit you. Even if you refuse to be recruited, still accept this gift. It is not related at all.” Marquis.

“This knife I have prepared since hearing your greatness. Made of strong Zaenia Steel, and forged by one of the greatest decades ago.”

He explained the knife. Although Laciel could read it at any time with Appraisal, he still listened to the Marquis' explanation.

[ Item Name: Kyuri’s Dagger

Type: Dagger

Note: A blade made by a Legendary Forger of Zaenia Steel. Has sharpness that can penetrate the armor like paper. Easy to carry and hold.]

This knife is really great. Thought Laciel.

When he accepted it, he was quite shocked. It is unexpected that the knife is very fit and comfortable in terms of size and weight.

“This gift is very good, Mr. Marquis.” Laciel. “And regarding your recruitment offer, sorry, we can't.”

“Is that? Well, I'm not forcing either. But thank goodness, I'm glad my gift is so well-liked.” Marquis. “If time permits, I still want to talk to you. Unfortunately, I don't have much time. Preparation of the troops stayed a little longer, and I had to be there to arrange it.”

“Huft, even the King also sent the Royal Capital Duke. This will be the finishing blow.” Added.

“It's okay, Mr. Marquis. I'm also very happy to meet you.” Laciel.

Just then, the Marquis only realized that from the beginning of the conversation, Laciel had never lied at all. Even at that farewell. Usually, people only make small talk when they say it. But Laciel is not. He said it honestly.

Getting the information directly from the source is very helpful. Thank you, Mr. Marquis. Hopefully, we can meet again later. If you can survive the battle later. Inner Laciel.

Then, the Marquis put on his hood back and walked out of the room. Although he looked to be alone, he still carried a few bodyguards who specialized in Assassin classes.

Outside the building, he was found by one of the bodyguards. He was dressed in black from top to bottom.

“The person you met just now, he's very dangerous. I can't even feel the limit of his strength being where.” His report.

Hearing that, the Marquis remained silent. He also found out that Laciel was someone who was very dangerous. He could also tell that from his conversation with her and his self-control. But, he had a unique character, and at least, he looked to be in a neutral position. That's his mind.

...*****...

They're back in the room.

“Do you know that she was wearing a Necklace of Truth?” ask Nadja. “If you lie just once, I'm sure he'll be very wary of you.”

“I do not know, and do not need to know. It could even be that Guild Master was wearing it. All I need to do is speak appropriately but honestly.” Answer Laciel.

“Laciel,” Hana calling.

 Laciel turned around and saw that Hana had taken off her clothes. He had also already hugged her and then fused his lips with Laciel's.

“Humph!” Laciel.

“Hei! You cheated! I want to too!” nadja shouted and then separated the two of them and then took his share.

That night, they revealed something they had never revealed to each other before.
