"So, there is no Superior Demon?" Rose asked while furrowing her eyebrows.
"Yeah. I have asked Anna before leaving." Noel nodded with a serious expression. He was afraid that there was a Superior Demon in the mix as well, but luckily, it seemed to be just their misinterpretation.
"Before leaving? When?" Rose was more focused when Noel actually asked Anna. After all, it was so fast and smooth that she didn't find them talking.
"Earlier." Noel had a hard time describing it, so he just ignored the problem and moved on. "Anyway, now that we have no worries left, we should focus on dealing with the demons and complete the mission as soon as possible."
Rose nodded. Though, she was still curious about something. "By the way, since when have you two planned this together?"
Noel glanced at Rose's expression, thinking it would probably be fine to tell her about it. Rose was trustworthy and had decided to be his vassal after all. It would be a waste if he didn't take advantage of her ability as his secretary.
He explained, "I met Anna right after discussing the plan with the Baron and the Demon Hunting Squad."
"Ah, at that time!" Rose remembered when Noel decided to go out alone to take a breather. It seemed they had truly planned their meeting. "I see. So, you're discussing the suspicion and the plan at that time…"
"Yeah. You should know about the Inquisitor, right?"
"I know about them. Basically, they're the government dogs used to keep other nobles or influences in check. So, Anna gave you that information while you exchanged our plans. That was why she brought the demons here?" Rose frowned upon Noel's action. It was true that this would help them to fight the Count. But his action resulted in the death of many innocent soldiers.
If Noel didn't give a satisfactory explanation, she would be disappointed. After all, she had two reasons for following Noel. She was indebted to him and knew that Noel was a kind lord that would lead his territory just fine.
Noel had already expected this reaction. The answer had been prepared long ago while he was still chasing after the person from the Supreme Devil Organization.
"Of course, I know that my actions will cause a lot of deaths. However, if I don't do this, there will be more deaths in the future." Noel shook his head. "Do you remember the matter that I once solved? Regarding the bandits using the demons to spread chaos."
"Ah!" That clue was enough for Rose to understand the whole situation. She thought for a moment and arranged the words in her mind before confirming the reason. "Are you saying the Count truly makes a Demon Farm?
"And this farm can basically cultivate demons, considering we have seen a lot of Peak Level Demons. If the Count succeeds, he will be able to create an army of demons.
"This is something that the Supreme Devil Organization wants and that's the reason why they sent a Spirit Master to threaten the Count. Whether it's fortunate or unfortunate, we've come to intervene at the right moment, stopping the Count from colluding with the Supreme Devil Organization. Yeah, they should be about to reach an agreement with how that guy acted toward the Count.
"In other words, the Supreme Devil Organization originally planned to use the Count to make an army of demons and they'll control those demons.
"With that kind of power in their hand, they won't be afraid to attack the Demon Banner Army. There will be a lot of deaths after that, including the Demon Banner Army's knights."
Rose gasped, fully understanding the situation.
"Yes. That's the reason." Noel nodded with a grim expression, showing how severe the situation was. Even if he had to sacrifice all those people, he had to do it since more lives were at stake.
Rose couldn't say anything to him after learning about the situation. It was clear Noel was doing his best while minimizing the casualties.
Rose thought for a moment and asked, "What do you want me to do?"
"I'm planning to visit the Demon Hunting Squad's headquarters."
"Why is that?" Rose frowned, not understanding the reason. She personally didn't like the Demon Hunting Squad that much because of their arrogance. But Noel wouldn't suggest something without reasons, so she at least had to hear what he wanted to say.
Noel didn't hesitate to tell her the suspicion. "This is just my speculation, but I think the one that attacked their headquarters is…"
"The Supreme Devil Organization." Rose knew what he wanted to say, so she completed it. She tried to link the current situation with the answer. "So, you're saying the attack is just a distraction so that the captain of the Demon Hunting Squad can't do anything to help these people? Meanwhile, the Supreme Devil Organization takes advantage of this situation to get the Count…"
"Yeah. I believe that's the case. Without their captain, it's basically impossible for them to prevent the kidnapping." Noel confirmed her doubt.
"That's bad. In that case, I'll try to suggest it. And if possible, I'll make the Demon Hunting Squad owe us so that they will invite us to their base to thank us."
"Thank you." Noel smiled. Everything had become easier with Rose helping her. He didn't regret making Rose his left hand.
"But before we can go there, don't forget we still have a mission here." Rose pointed forward, showing the gate and a lot of people trying to leave the city. The soldiers were holding them back for the time being because there were still numerous demons outside.
Noel agreed with Rose. They had to solve this problem first.
"I'm going to help the soldiers and our squad to deal with the demons. You are going to support us from the top of the wall. At the same time, try to calm down the crowd. They don't need to leave anyway."
"Got it." Rose patted his shoulder with a smile as she slightly shifted her direction.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
