With the death of the Goblin King,

it marked the sudden end of the battle.

The troops who were going to fight the surrounding enemies,

prepared to withdraw excitedly.

Most of the soldiers worked diligently while exuding a subtle atmosphere.

***

I came over to the Demon lords HQ.

Other than me, there are Lyle Gewalt, Rondo, Elena, Brandford and for some reason, Aya as well.

So, Seiji. What is this group?

These people are the representatives of the humans. Im told that they want to discuss peace with Demon lord-sama.

Then, I introduced each and everyone.

Why must I become the interpreter?

Well, it cant be helped since Im the only one who can interpret

When I finished the brief introduction, Demon lord-sama asked a question.

Where is the King of the humans?

The King didnt come here.Hes in the Royal Capital.

Wa?The King didnt appear to all these battles?

It seems in the culture of the demonkind,

they recognized thatThe King shall go into battle.

Afterwards, with my interpretation, the meeting safely advanced somehow or another.

but

It happened during the break.

The meeting dragged on and we took a break for moment.

The demonkinds side prepared tea.

On either side of a big table, the demonkinds side and the humans side were drinking a cup of tea harmoniously.

The tea tasted a bit unusual but there wasnt a stupid guy who committed rudeness at all.

However

Without warning, Demon lord-sama suddenly became outraged.

You bastard!What kind of magic did you cast on me!!?

The Demon lord-sama suddenly yelled and approached Branford, grabbing him by the collar.

Branford was scared to death by Demon lord-sama, who suddenly flew into a rage.

(There might be some people who forgot but,

the man in question, Branford, is the fox-eyed aristocrat,

the guy who marched towards the Demon lords army without permission while we were fighting against the goblins.)

What happened suddenly, Demon lord-sama!?

Its neither what happened nor such!

This fellow cast magic with evil intent towards me.

Somehow or another, Demon lord-sama seems to have the ability to sense magic cast on himself.

Branford-san, what on earth did you cast towards Demon lord-sama?

E-, E-, Errits a-, appraisal magic.

Branford became incoherent, yelping and then freeze up.

That reminds me, this fellow castAppraisalmagic on me as well.

I was also glad that I didnt carelessly useAppraisalon Demon lord-sama

It seems that this person usedAppraisalmagic on Demon lord-sama.

Curse you!UsingAppraisaltowards me, huh!!

Hes terribly angry.What should I do?

Demon lord-sama threw away Branford from his collar-grip

and pulled the Japanese sword out of its sheath.

I deem this matter as a declaration of war against us!

Prepare yourselves!!

N!?Declaration of war!?

This enraged Demon lord-sama is strange.

Its unpleasant to beAppraisedwillfully but,

to get extremely furious to this extent?

Intimidated by Demon lord-sama, nobody from the humans side was able to move.

The other party was the one who severed the head of the Goblin King.

That person was furious and held a weapon before everyones eyes.

If one was to come across such situation, anyone will tremble in fear.

S-, Seiji.What did the Demon lord-sama say?

Uhh

He said that he deemed it as a declaration of war

W-, What did you say!!?

And then, everyone focused their gazes on Branford, who was thrown by the Demon lord-sama and inadvertently collapsed.

I-, I

as part of information gathering

that kind of thing

With too much trouble, Branfords face turned pale,

and collapsed just like that.

***

The discussion was called off.

The humans aristocrats returned to their camp,

and held a meeting to cope with it.

What are we going to do, Lyle Gewalt-dono?

I dont know either.

As it is, were going to war

with the Demon lord, who buried the Goblin King with just a single blow.

Its impossible for us to win.

We should avoid the war at any cost..

Well said by the guy who was full of spirit to go to war against the demon lords army some time ago.

Ill negotiate with the Demon lord alone from now on.

Seiji will continue to become an interpreter.

Lyle Gewalt and I went to talk with the Demon lord.

***

Seiji was interpreting in this scene.

Its our fault, I apologize for the matter a short while ago.

I dont need an apology.

I ask for your forgiveness about it somehow or another.

No more discussion!

To begin with, your not the Humans King, right?

If you have something to say, bring your King.

The King would take half a month to get here since Hes in the Royal Capital.

Would you wait till then?

Im not going to wait!You must bring your King by sunset today,

else, the Demon lords army will continue invade the humans town.

Prepare yourselves!

Demon lord-sama was completely sulking.

Are you a child!?

***

Lyle Gewalt and I talked about how to deal with it in the anteroom tent.

What to do

Hmm, I wonder.

Y-, You!Cant you think properly as well!?

Why do I have to think, it has nothing to do with me.

The country is on a brink of destruction!

Its not my country.

Thats, thats right but

Elena-sama, what about Elena-sama?

If the country were to perish, Elena-sama would be sad as well.

If its about Elena alone, Ill shelter her and live peacefully.

What about Lela!?

Lela?As for your daughter, Lela

the Demon lord-sama might rape her.

A!?S-, Say it again!!

Lyle Gewalt grabbed me by my collar.

Thats right!You were using magic that makes you suddenly disappear and reappear.

Is it possible to bring the King with it somehow or another?

Its possible.

Its possible!?You can do it?

Then bring the King quickly.

What about the reward?

Y-, You bastardyoure taking advantage of the hopeless situation.

How much do you want!?

100, 000 Aurum.

100, 000 Aurum!?

If you cant pay, Lela is also fine instead.

What did you say!!?

What would you do? Are you going to pay 100, 000 Aurum?

I-, I understand

Alright, the negotiation is established.Well then, shall I bring the King?

I went to where the King is usingTeleportation.

***

Yo! King.

You are, Seiji!Why are you here!?

Im here for a number of reasons because of the demonkind.

What did you say!?

Well then, guiding 1 great King to Demon lord-samas place.~
