The battle with the emperor was over, and His Highness Alberto was revived after seeing Melfina-san, so we had to move to the place to hear about the demon race and demonization.
''I have a few things to do, so let's hear the story in the audience room.
Since no one voiced any denial, we decided to move to the audience room as Lionel had instructed us to do.
When we left the emperor's sleeping quarters, the four soldiers who had been turned into demons were tied up with ropes by the other six soldiers.
''We will return those who have been turned into demons back to their original form. Take those men with you and accompany them.
Under Lionel's direction, they moved to the audience room, despite being a large group.
The eyes of those working at the castle turned to him, but because of the large group of people he was traveling with, he didn't want to make a big deal out of carrying the unconscious emperor.
They came to the audience room, and Lionel opened the door behind the throne without stopping his steps.
'Let's take what we can get and leave it first,'
I didn't understand what he meant, but when I followed Lionel into the door, I realized that it was a treasure house.
''Huh?''
It's not just me, everyone froze when they saw Lionel's actions.
As expected of a general, or should I say general, I know he knew where the treasure room was.......but how did he open the lock?
''This treasure vault contains magical tools and medicines that can restore magic power. It would be better to cure those who are turning into demons first.
What Lionel was saying was a good argument, but I'll ask for permission from His Highness Alberto, the person in charge of this place, for a moment.
I just wanted to keep my words, because later they might say I took them without permission.
''Yeah. I've caused you a lot of trouble this time. As promised, I'll give you some of the things I have in my treasure room.
Even though His Highness Prince Alberto moved from place to place, he was still cuddling with Melfina-san, but he didn't seem to be wandering about, and his handling of her as a royal family member was completely on the board.
........Even if I say it was on the board, it's natural to say it's natural since they are the royal family from the beginning......
''Luciel-sama, over here.
With that, Lionel took out from the treasure room and handed it to me, not a magic potion.......but a sparkling jewel and necklace.
''What's that?''
This sphere is a magic crystal sphere. This is the one that can move in and out of the sphere according to the attribute of the magic power. And this is the spirit king's necklace. It is said that when you wear it, it becomes easier to use your magic power and at the same time suppresses the magic power you use.
''Just wear the Spirit King's necklace, but how do you use that magic crystal sphere?
I've heard it's used for magical manipulation.
Holding the magic crystal sphere in his hand, he tried to pass the magic power through it with the image of circulating the magic power in his body into the magic crystal sphere, and he was surprised to feel his magic power suddenly increase.
''Amazing....''
In the blink of an eye, his magic power was fully recovered.
Next, he hung the Spirit King's necklace around his neck and then began to chant facing the soldiers who had turned into demons.
[Holy Dragon, become the light that unleashes everything, swallow all the curses, all the defilements, and purify the evil souls of salvation]
Then, I still had the sensation of losing magic power stealthily, but the moment I felt the neck of my body light up, the sensation of losing magic power stopped.
I thought it might have been a mistake, but when I saw the holy dragon purifying the demonized soldiers while swallowing them, I understood that the magic power consumption was really reduced.
''This is amazing....''
It was truly a national treasure, it could be called a national treasure.
The translucent holy dragon that emitted a blue-white light disappeared as it finished passing through the soldiers. You can find a number of different types of shoes in the market. But since the soldiers are obviously exhausted, I immediately activated the Extra Heal.
I'm going to be able to take this one for real...?
Just to be sure, Your Highness Albert was about to check again, when he noticed that the roominess had disappeared from the face of His Highness, who was holding Melfina-san, and followed His Highness' gaze. Ahead of him was a demon named Paula.
Before long, Paula had entered the treasure room, dexterously moving a large number of miniature golems around with great dexterity, connoisseur of treasures.
Then the miniature golem would hand Paula only the items that met Paula's eye sight and disappear............................this was repeated.
The number of items that met Paula's specifications generally exceeded 20.
''Paula, that number is indeed unacceptable.
"....the golems are individual and collective, individual and collective. The golems did their best.
Paula stretched her chest out as she said that, but as expected from a weak Prince Albert, she decided to dismiss the idea.
''Unfortunately, Paula is the one controlling the golem, so that's indeed no good.
'Sechigai. But I want this one at the very least.
Paula said that and showed us a nondescript ring.
When His Highness Alberto saw it, he showed a relieved expression and then approved it.
With Paula's awesome smile at that time, we would have been the only ones who understood that that was a very rare object.
As for Lionel, he showed the great sword, the great shield, and the long spear to His Highness before telling him.
''Since this is the item that His Majesty took away from me that belonged to me, this will be returned to you.
All right.
Then Estia, Kefin, and Ketty transferred the rights to Paula because it was funny, and His Highness Alberto got upset again, but in the meantime I got Mr. Lysak out of the casket of the hermit and had Estia wake him up.
Mr. Lysak was stunned when he found out that everything was over, but he seemed to realize a lot and promised to tell me what he and Gladys knew.
And I had him tell me everything that had to do with the demon race and demonization........
''So you didn't know how many people the Emperor and Cloud were making people become demonized, and you didn't know why they started pushing for demonization?
''Yes. I didn't know that the demon tribe had been in and out of the castle. I was only ordered to put the slave crest in and not to tell anyone about my father and Cloud... The only reason I was there was because I was told there was going to be an attack.
''Since you came out of that laboratory, you saw that there are those who have been turned into demons, right?
'I was told that it was an experimental facility to bring in the demon race ... power. The soldiers and slaves were Cloud's private army as well, so I couldn't say anything.
Unfortunately, gathering information from Lord Gladys didn't seem to be worth it.
I decided to turn to Mr. Lysak and ask him a question.
'So Mr. Lysak-san betrayed you by being offered a deal by Cloud, becoming a slave and then becoming an infiltrator (spy) to get information on how His Highness Alberto and the others would operate, or by turning into a demon race, and you chose to be an infiltrator?'
''It will be. The few people who had been turned into demons were no longer people. They felt that if they were going to abandon being people, they would rather choose infiltrators.
But the slave crest disappeared at Ebiza, didn't it?
Still, there would be a good reason for him to side with Cloud instead of His Highness.
''He had seen the emperor transition, and he thought he couldn't escape. It's strange to think that we can win against all those demonized soldiers.
I feel like he implicitly said we're crazy, but I certainly don't feel like I can beat a soldier who hasn't turned into a demon race, so what Lysak says here has a point.
It would be too scary if the emperor shifted when I was unguarded.
''Well, that's fine. Just so you know, your custody is to be handed over to His Highness Albert, so consider your future to be determined by what you do with your mind.
''Well there are a few more demons in this castle, but they're probably dead. All the slaves have been pre-applied with the slave crest by Cloud, so if he dies, they will be dead. He said that the emperor's slaves serve at his side as pawns for the emperor to use.
''Then this means there are no demons in the Empire, is that correct?
'Oh no, I'm not in the castle, but "Master Luciel, Doran has just called.
I'd forgotten that I'd given Lionel the magic ball, but apparently I'd received an urgent call that Lionel himself couldn't determine.
'Lend me,'
I took the magic ball from Lionel and reminded him to connect it to Doran.
'Dolan, is everything okay in there?'
The only thing is that we encountered an imperial pterodactyl knight, and he ignored us and headed towards you at full speed. I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that I'm not the only one. I'm sure they'll be able to get it right.
Okay. Can you give me a minute?
Before Doran could respond, he called out to Lionel.
'Lionel, what can you think of if the pterodactyls return from the front lines in one piece?
'When you drop an enemy stronghold on the battlefield, the rest of the time it's when the front line is breached or something unexpected happens.
'If that's the nature of the trouble, Master Sage.......' "Excuse me. Just before the battle with Rubruk began, special forces began attacking, regardless of whether they were friend or foe...
When the soldier jumped into the audience room, he was in too much of a hurry, and without checking us carefully, he drowned out Lysak's words and told us about the fire-urgent.
''........it seems, but is that what you wanted to say?''
...Yes, well...
Lysak looked depressed to see if he was trying to use useful information as his bargaining chip.
Only this was not the time to be concerned about such things.
''This isn't good if we don't go to the battlefield... right?
I made the mistake of looking at Lionel's face and asking him.
'Yes, sir. It will make us owe the Empire an even bigger debt of gratitude, and it will be very nasty if we let it go.
Okay. So what does the emperor end up doing?
'We have Estia's dark magic to put her to sleep, but we don't know how long she'll be asleep.
That's tricky... hmm?
Did you need something?
I stared at the soldier who had just hurried in and saw a familiar face from somewhere.
'Kefin, Ketty, get that soldier who reported in,'
The two men reacted immediately to the sudden order.
And when I went near the soldier who was captured in a flash, a familiar face was there as well.
''It's been a really long time since Iniès, so it's been a really long time.
"...why is an S-class healer here...
Perhaps it was a reward for his hard work in the empire, but he was grateful that Gouun Sensei had pinpointed and reunited him with the people he needed.
''Well, there's a lot of things, but first, I need you to do a lot of things for me. Please help me...slaver.
He let out a sigh of relief that he wouldn't have to leave behind any rear-guard gloom before heading to the battlefield.
