Chapter 241 Agreement of The End of War

 

I’m in a tight spot right now. Why did this happen? It was all the result of Maria’s recklessness, but the responsibility came to me. However, I’m Black right now, just a subordinate of Lily. Let’s leave it to Miss Perfect Lily. Or so I thought.

 

『Ugh, I’m seriously at my limit, I’m tired…. Goshujin-sama, I leave the rest to you….』

 

While saying so, Lily spread her wings and left at full speed like Maria. They left everything to me, huh? I don’t want that! Ahh, it seems that my recent fatigue came back, and I’m tired mentally as well. Anyway, Lily has already reached the limit of her acting, and she’s tired both physically and mentally. She’s now neither perfect nor the Great Eight Demons. She’s just a good-for-nothing maid who eats rice crackers on the sofa in the living room. It’s better not to expect any more support from Lily.

――In other words, I have to get overcome this alone!

 

「「「……… *Stares*」」」

 

No, no, what do you want me to do!? I can’t speak carelessly in front of Haruna and the others, you know? And why is everyone looking at me!? It’s your responsibility, Hund! Damn, I have no choice but to change my voice to overcome this. Ah, aah, mic test, mic test, Maria is stupid. Alright.

 

「As I was watching from afar, I’ve confirmed that the other two battles are over. The result was a victory for both sides of the Hero Alliance. The battle between the heroes of Adelheit and Hund-dono of the Great Eight Demons ended with Hund-dono close to victory. However, in consideration of the fact that he violated the rule and the will of Maria-dono of the Great Eight Demons, we will carry out the end of war agreement here. Is there any objection?」

 

…… What’s with this character? Moreover, because I tried to make a good voice, it became a dandy voice. It’s hard to keep this up…! Oi, Weerel. Why are you closer to me than before!?

 

「I have no objection. Let’s exchange words at the negotiating table.」

「… If the war is over, I have no objection.」

「Err, I’m the same.」

「Desuwaa….」

 

After such a display of power, everyone is obediently obeying me. Therese woke up once, but it seems that she lost to her fatigue and sleepiness. How fast she falls asleep is not losing to Haru.

 

「Then, both sides should return to your camps and let the others know the details. We will have a formal signing ceremony here in half an hour. This Black, the close aid of the 『Degenerate Demon』 Lilyvia-sama of the seventh rank of the Great Eight Demons, will be the witness as a neutral party. The representatives of both countries may bring two escorts each and come when it’s time. Don’t try to oppose it, okay? If you do, both countries will make enemies of the Great Eight Demons. That’s all!」

 

Yes, I did it! It’s a hundred times more tiring than talking normally…. Maybe I should be a little nicer to Lily next time? No, she’s mostly doing it as a hobby, so there’s no need to do so.

 

「………*Staring with sparkling eyes*」

 

Um, Weerel-san? I’d appreciate it if you didn’t pull on my robe so much.

 

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

 

I was busy preparing the meeting place until the appointed time. I prepared some chairs for several people and suitable desks for writing. Still, my position as Lily’s close aide was a nuisance. I don’t know if I’m her right arm or left arm, but Black and Red are big shots with such a position (or at least that’s the setting). It wouldn’t be cool for such a person, who’s being seen as a monster by the others, to use his hands and feet to prepare the meeting place. It’s nonsense. That’s why I have to deal with such things using magic.

I used dark magic to manipulate gravity and borrowed things from Crocus’s camp. Just like a phenomenon of poltergeists, I arranged the desks and chairs while making it look like they were obeying my orders. Gracefully and accurately, it’s as if my magic is art!

 

「…… Oh my, I’m really tired.」

 

The reason for this stupid handling is so that I won’t destroy Weerel’s dream. I mean, I can tell by looking at those pure eyes. Well, Weerel probably saw something like a longing in Black. Something like, the lone heretic who serves the Great Eight Demons? Yeah, I get it, I had such a time myself after all. Weerel, please get along with that illness in moderation.

 

「Oh, there they are….」

 

The first to come here was Hund’s group. It’s exactly ten minutes before the time. This guy came to the meeting of the Great Eight Demons exactly ten minutes before the time, right? Hmm, I don’t think we will get along.

 

「Welcome, Hund-dono. You may wait in your seat.」

「…… I will do so.」

 

The representative from Hund’s side is Hund himself, of course, and his escorts are the jellyfish of the Four Heavenly something and uh… a merman soldier. He can’t bring the shark because it’s too big, so he’s making it up with this soldier, huh. The jellyfish were unfortunately defeated by the heroes of Galdevalan, but he didn’t receive any serious wound. Or perhaps I should say that it was adjusted so? I just noticed it recently, but the opponent was out of his league, yeah.

 

「Hund-sama.」

「Here they are…!」

 

Hund’s group went out of their way to inform the other party’s arrival. Clarius, the representative of Crocus, came from the opposite side of Hund. This is the first time I’ve seen her up close, but she sure is big. Being sandwiched between Hund and Clarius, the feeling of oppression is terrific. I feel like my personal space is completely narrowed. And her escorts are… Haruna and Chinatsu, huh. Odanmu is damaged, so I think it’s reasonable.

 

「Everyone is here, huh. I’m sure you already understand the situation. Here is the signing document with the names of my master, Lilyvia-sama, and the third rank Maria-sama. The only thing written on it is a vow to end the war. We won’t meddle in the treatment of the prisoners of war you have captured. After all, I’m sure the countries of the Jiba continent will have their own wishes. However, we will only have you take a vow here that you won’t fight anymore. This is the will of the 『Vampire Princess』 and the 『Degenerate Demon』 of the Great Eight Demons.」

 

Phew. If the big nation of Crocus recognizes the end of the war, the other nations will follow suit. I’m not sure about Galdevalan, but I’ll just have Lily do something about it behind the scenes and have the Red Devil of Adelheit give them pressure.

It was an unexpectedly long trip that I set out for the sake of our disciples, but now I can return to my beloved home. First is a bath, and next is Haru’s meal, right? …… No, it’s better to give priority to Nell first. I somehow feel so. And then, a trial is waiting for me after such a short break. I hope nothing happens. But my wish probably won’t come true from how things are today. Stay strong, me.
