Chapter 240 – #239 According to Each Person’s Beliefs, for Each Person’s Desires

Walk around and check on people’s conditions. Just like the demon guy said, my body was paralyzed, but other than that, there were no other problems.

Then he collapsed on the floor. I was planning on waiting for the fell hound to show up.

I raised my head and noticed the small buttocks stuck in one of the barriers and spitting out semen.

Cerberus’s vagina and anus, which had been soaked by me and Perez for two hours, were swollen red to a truly pitiful degree.

As I watch him twitch and fall, for some reason, my dick gets stronger again.

I shook my head and asked Perez.

‘But how much is it if you are ranked 27th in the demon race? I don’t know how many demons there are, but just looking at the numbers, they don’t seem weak.’

– It’s almost the top below the 5 Demon Dukes, right? About the action leader right below me?

‘Really? For something like that, it’s not that strong?’

– Last time, my training to beat Empress Scarlet paid off. And it’s only 27th.

It’s only 27th…

‘Then what rank is Anne, the strongest among your subordinates?’

– 26th place?

Huh? 26th place?

For a moment, I thought for a moment that I had misheard, and then I asked again.

‘Right below the Duke of Demon World in 26th place? Not between 6th and 10th?’

– 6th to 10th place are all fell hounds.

‘Then what about 11th to 20th place?’

– They’re all fellhounds there too.

“?”

No… Can the upper ranks be concentrated in one place so unilaterally?

When I was confused because I didn’t understand, Perez added an explanation, saying it was worth understanding.

– There are many philosophy perverts who are secretly strong.

‘More than the 5 Demon World Dukes, where battle enthusiasts are concentrated?’

Each Demon World Duke and his subordinates are overly specialized in their specific needs.

For the Fellhound, philosophy. In the case of Perez, sexual desire.

And Satyr, the Duke of the Five Demon Worlds, is crazy about fighting. Therefore, if we were to consider strength, wouldn’t it be normal to focus on the 5 Demon World Dukes?

– They are just idiots who purely enjoy fighting. Among philosophy perverts, those who are obsessed with swords or martial arts have no answer. I heard that there are kids who talk to their weapons all day, and in extreme cases, take a bath with their swords and do that(?)?

“…”

Indeed, the more you know, the more fascinating the world of demons becomes.

As I was talking with Perez, someone suddenly appeared out of thin air. 1 It was the Demon Duke Felhound.

“Are you here?”

“It looks like you handled it well.”

“Thanks for your help.”

The fell hound looked around and nodded. He saw the people asleep and nodded at me.

I got up and followed him to one side of the room, and immediately the wall split and a hidden space inside came into view.

There was an additional magic circle there that was different from the magic circle outside.

“You probably have a lot of questions. Even the tomboy Perez wouldn’t have given you the answer you wanted easily this time.”

Perez had remained silent about this incident. That meant that even she had a reason why she couldn’t go out on her own.

“But is it okay if you tell me the inside story?”

“I think so. Since you will rule here in Middle-Earth anyway… Explaining the situation to the owner of Middle-Earth will help achieve harmony between the two races.”

Harmony…

Fellhound once told a similar story in my territory. A world where demons and humans live together. That’s the utopia he dreams of.

By the way, I think I just heard something loud.

“Aren’t you overestimating me? I am the master of Middle-earth. The dragons and giants, who are said to be the strongest of all races in this world, will laugh when they hear that.”

“You can be confident. Sometimes being too humble is not a good thing.”

… It seems that Fellhound’s trust in me is quite high.

I nodded that I understood and kept my eyes on the magic circle. The inner magic circle had a slightly different shape from the outer one.

“This thing is a space movement magic circle.”

“Do you want to know?”

“Yes. The method is similar to the few space movement gates left in the Empire. What is this?”

“This magic circle is a passage connecting the demon world and the middle world.”

A passage connecting the Demon World and Middle Earth?

“Once this is completed, demons will be able to freely come to the human world without wasting power.”

The Elyos and Demons, the inhabitants of the Heavenly World and the Demon World, require a great deal of power to cross over to the other dimension, Middle Earth.

For that reason, anyone other than a high-ranking demon cannot cross over to this world without permission.

If you come across it without thinking, you could easily be destroyed by the locals before you can recover your strength.

“Of course, that is not the whole reason. There is a limit to the number of people who can enter and leave Middle-earth for both the Demon and Elyos powers. It is a promise made during the ceasefire.”

Currently, the heavenly world and the demonic world are in a truce situation.

But they are always trying to beat each other.

“Of course, if war breaks out again, it will be here in Middle-earth, so everyone is using their own tricks.”

The Elyos created a religion called the Temple of Light and worked to recruit humans, the inhabitants of Middle Earth, into their friendly forces.

And the demons who saw this set up camp here first to avoid the eyes of the elyos.

“The problem is that it was the Demon King’s special instructions that created that plan. It was the 5th Duke who received the order.”

Fellhound believes that there must be a passage, whether for reconciliation with humans or for fighting with the Elyos.

However, the forces of the Five Demon World Dukes are simply people who are crazy about fighting. It was obvious that not only Elyos but also humans would be killed mercilessly.

“The satyr must have known I would interfere, so he hid the gate location completely.”

I was lucky enough to find a passage when I came here, but Fellhound and Bereth were still unable to block it. After all, it was the devil who ordered it.

After hearing the story up to that point, I naturally understood the current situation.

“But you don’t mind me interfering.”

“Yes. If you, a demigod and a resident of this world, want to stop it, even the Demon Lord can’t say anything.”

“Then there is one thing I would like to ask. What does the Demon King..? Think about coexistence with humans?”

I know that fellhounds are very friendly to humans. So does Perez.

However, we still do not know the thoughts of the monarch who rules the demon world. What kind of thoughts does he have and what kind of character does he have?

“To be honest, the Demon King doesn’t think much about that. He has no interest in anything other than the fight against Heaven, so he just follows the opinions of the Dukes of the Demon World.”

“Doesn’t that mean that they have the same thoughts as satyrs?”

“It’s not like that, so you don’t have to worry. You’re wide open to the possibility of coexistence with the residents of Middle Earth, including humans. Perhaps if Beres returns to the Demon World and gives strength to my opinion, he will move in that direction even more.”

After hearing those words, Perez stuck out his head and laughed.

“Heh. If something like that had happened, I would have told you right away. I would have helped you right away!”

“I came to talk to you, but didn’t you run away to Middle Earth and dive for a thousand years?”

As if I had been stabbed, Perez went back into my prick.

Anyway, the conclusion is…

“It means that this incident was purely carried out by the Five Demon Realms.”

The Fell Hound nodded, wiping his monocle.

“It was probably a plan to start a war with Icecrown, cause many casualties, and use that to hasten the activation of the passage.”

I lowered my gaze and stared at the magic circle.

A passage connecting the demon world and the middle world.

Looking at the shape of the magic circle, it was designed to attract the surrounding magic power. It was a formula that allowed it to be activated naturally without requiring anyone’s magic or vitality.

“…”

I turned around and escaped from the hidden space inside.

“Is it not going to be destroyed?”

“Yes. There needs to be at least one passage for the harmony between the Demon World and Middle Earth.”

Of course, that’s not the whole reason.

If the magic circle here is destroyed, the demons will create a magic circle somewhere else. Even more secretly and cautiously than now.

‘I can never leave it like that.’

I don’t know if the demons will be a friendly force or a hostile force… If you don’t know where they’re coming from, you’ll feel very anxious and uncomfortable, but as long as you know, there’s no problem at all.

Rather, it was safe to say that it was a weakness.

“Thank you so much… For believing in me and sharing my intentions.”

The Fell Hound held out his hand and expressed his sincere gratitude. I also held his hand and smiled brightly.

“No, it’s just a step forward for each other.”

A smile bloomed on the Fellhound’s mouth.

– Okay. Aslan too! It really shakes the heart of this philosophical pervert, the snout is still alive!

The problem was who would manage this place in the future, but Fellhound said there was no need to worry about that.

The gate on this side has already been completed, and even if it is completed on the Demon World side, magic power must be replenished only through Middle Earth… If something goes wrong, anyone will notice, and if left alone, it will take at least 10 years just to replenish the magic power.

“If you feel uneasy, you can use the Cerberus you subdued.”

Now that I think about it, there was that little demon too.

“Then what I will do during that period is to unify Middle-earth.”

“That’s right. If you need anything for that matter, please ask me for help, whatever it may be. I will gladly help you in my name.”

Excluding the Demon King, the person with the highest ranking in the Demon World makes such a bold promise and promises to help me…

Haha. In some ways, it may be a bigger gain than acquiring the Halstenberg territory.

– Me too! If you need my help, let me know anytime! I’ll listen to everything except asking for my butt!

That’s how Felhound, Perez, and I transcended our species and boarded the same boat.

According to each person’s beliefs. For each person’s desires.

We were all united.

***

“Earl Rotilmouth. You are awake.”

“Oh, yes. I’m so excited that I should be able to sleep. Haha.”

Early moning. The main building of the Halstenberg residence.

All the nobles who came to resolve the dispute with Ice Crown were gathered here.

The number reached about 80 people, but as it was the mansion of a lord who ruled a large estate, there was no shortage of accommodations.

One by one, the nobles came down from their lodgings and sat down for breakfast.

The meal, which would have originally been held in each room, was scheduled to be eaten together, perhaps because of today’s event.

“I guess I’ll start moving now.”

“Probably so. I wonder how wrinkled Cranberry’s face will be… Hehe. It’s good for the eyes.”

Yesterday, the nobles had people provoke the comrades and bereaved families of the soldiers who died in this conflict, and the group of hunters who fight with Icecrown every year.

With the wind in full force, the fortress will become very noisy as soon as the morning sun rises.

Then, negotiations will naturally be postponed.

“No matter how much of a hero Florian is, he won’t be able to resolve this matter.”

“Cancer. Even if we manage to control it this time, don’t we have an ace up our sleeve?”

The secret poached egg is the food of 4 Banhanil proposed by Icecrown.

Since it is a military secret, everyone is still keeping quiet about it, but if the ridiculous story requested by Ice Crown is released to the public… It was natural that the current public opinion would be overturned, and the negotiations would go to waste.

“Let’s take responsibility for this negotiation, kick out Count Cranberry and Prince Icecrown once and for all, and have a friendly competition among ourselves!”

“Haha. Good. Good!”

It was a time when the nobles were laughing and finishing their breakfast with such a vicious plan.

“Count! Count!”

People poured in from outside.

“Huh?”

“What’s going on?”

They were employees of each noble, and were intelligence agents who rushed to the scene and provided information when there was an important matter.

But more than 80 people come here at once.

The nobles looked at each other and then turned their attention to their employees.

“What on earth is going on that’s causing such a mess?”

“Wow, there was a huge incident last night!”

“A huge incident…?”

What on earth is going on that they are making such a fuss about?

Since nothing could be predicted, some nobles reacted like this.

“Why? Did the people who cheated yesterday go crazy and start an uprising?”

“Oh. That makes sense?”

But the moment they heard the employees’ stories, their eyes couldn’t help but open wide.

“Yesterday, a demon summoning circle was discovered in the annex of Lord Halstenberg’s official residence! Corpses were even found around it, and they are the Icecrown prisoners we captured this time!”

“What?!”

The nobles all stood up from their seats. On the contrary, a heavy silence fell.

It has to be that way.

Is it normal to summon demons? Most recently, in the case of the Count Batron family, all members were exterminated and even executed.

The nobles’ eyes began to roll. Then they became aware of each other… I ran out of the room with all my might.

“Get out of the way. Get out of the way!”

“Don’t block the road ahead, get out of the way!”

People suddenly split into the outbuildings and the lord’s study, as if competing.

The reason was simple.

The owner of this place, Marquis Barnos, summoned a demon, and this conflict arose due to that summoning ritual.

What he meant was that he could achieve the greatest feat just by going to Marquis Barnos and asking about his crime for the first time, or going to the demon summoning center and receiving the first report from the person in charge there.

“Get out of the way. Halstenberg is mine!”

“Nonsense!”

People fiercely running upstairs, pushing and hindering each other.

However, when they arrived at the lord’s study, they could not find the marquis.

“You bastard. Where are you?!”

“Has it already popped out?”

“That can’t be possible. I definitely saw it this morning!”

“Then are you still in the bedroom?”

However, it was the same even after entering the bedroom a second time. The Marquis Barnos was nowhere to be found.

Contrary to those who made such a fuss, the nobles who ran to the demon summoning circle were unexpectedly able to kill two birds with one stone.

But that was all. Unfortunately, they only had to suck their fingers.

“Wow… Are you working out this early in the morning? You’re exhausted.”

The main culprits of this incident are the Marquis Barnos and the Marquis. A young man with black hair was standing next to the two and waving to them.

Even behind him, a group of masked people were tied up, and their heads were bowed. They were assassins hired by nobles to assassinate believers.

Cale patted the masked people’s heads and smiled.

“Welcome. It’s a very good morning.”
