“Wow, the kingdom is destroyed?”

Upon hearing the Queen’s speech, Sophie was shocked.

“Ooh, let’s go, cattle. What is this…”

The Dyce kingdom was destroyed.
The kingdom is now renamed the 7th Breeding Ground.
The Templars were disbanded.
All the people living in the kingdom are livestock, and they must fulfill their duty for the rest of their lives for their master, the demon tribe.
Sophie was dazed for a moment at the sound of lightning in the dry sky.
So was her mother, Sei.

More shockingly,

“Hey, my queen?”

It was the image of Bellion being toyed with by the demon king.
A queen loved by the people.
Unlike her predecessors, the queen truly cares about her country.
Sophie believed that the Queen would surely solve everything.
She believed that she would drive out the demons and end the war.
She firmly believed that she would bring herself and her mother back to her hometown.

The person who did that is being harassed by the demon lord.
Dani she was harassed and lost her senses.
What do you mean by this?
Sophie was so shocked that she sat down.

“Are you okay? Aren’t you hurt?”

In a situation where everyone was confused, Lilia was the only one who was fine.
Rather, she was listening to the speech with an expression as if she had seen a fun game.
Her escort knight, Levendo, and her pet, Artro, did the same.

Because she already knew it would be like this.
Lillia, who had heard everything she was going to reveal in her speech, wasn’t particularly shocked.
Although Lilia did not expect that Bellion would offer her own body to Eris in front of her room to subjugate her people.

“It’s over, let’s go inside.”

After the speech, the crowd dispersed.
Lilia took her mother and daughter, Sophie, and entered her palace.
Sophie was embarrassed to try to enter her palace.

“Now, wait a minute. Why are you going here?”
“Because you are my livestock from now on.”
“… Yes?”
“Ah, it should be said that it is not livestock, but property. Since I’m staying here, wouldn’t it be natural for me to take my belongings with me?”

What nonsense are you talking about?
It’s all about looking at people and owning them.
Sophie was taken aback, but Lillia continued her story without hesitation.

“I was actually ordered to clean up the traitors. So, when I go back to the demon realm, I’m going to lead my bodyguard to subdue them.”
“What does that subjugation have to do with us?”
“You mother and daughter are in charge of dealing with sexual desire. She just needs to play toilet with me.”
“Rice, a toilet?”
“Yeah, all the girls with me should be sex toilets.”

Lilia’s expression was so bright as she explained.

“I have to deal with the soldiers’ sexual desire, and I will use it to punish the traitors. We need as many women as possible to solve it all.”
“Is that why you chose us?”
“Yeah, if I hadn’t met your mother and daughter, I would have picked someone else.”

That is, you were out of luck. She adds jokingly.
As she spoke, her Sophie looked at Lilia with terrified eyes.

“No, I must say I was lucky. If I had been there, I would have gotten along well with other people and become livestock.”

Why are you talking like you’re having fun?

“I intend to tear down the slums and build a barn there. We plan to lock up all the refugees there and use them as seeds.”

Why are you proudly talking about horrible sounds?

“I plan to requisition 300 people from the slums. To use it as a power source for a robot. This is why I went to the slums. “

Did you sell your conscience?

“Your mother and daughter have no intention of riding in a robot. Because it’s my livestock. It would be fine to have two people in the house. Eris is a big-bodied person, so she can be relieved.”

What can you be assured of?
In the end, while intending to use us as slaves.
What does this woman, this devil, think of humans?
The more she heard what Lilia had to say, the more her Sophie got goosebumps.
It was as if she was talking to a demon in human form.

“Why why…”
“Huh?”
“Why are you doing this?”

Sophie asked in a fearful, tearful voice.

“What did we do wrong to make them livestock? What are you taking away my dreams for? By what right do you treat us as beasts? Why should we listen to you?”

Lillia’s answer to this was simple.

“Because you are a loser.”

It was so simple that both Sophie and Sei were at a loss for words.

“It is common sense that losers face a miserable end. Since humans have been defeated, isn’t it natural for us to become slaves to the demons?”
“You’re asking me to accept it because it’s obvious?”
“Huh.”
“… I hate that.”

Eventually, Sophie let out the tears she had been holding back.

“I hate that! I don’t want to be a slave. He wants to go back to his hometown with his mother!”
“…”
“I don’t know what happened to my dad, but he can’t be dragged around by you!”

You cannot be deprived in this way.
I haven’t taken one step yet, but I can’t sit down like this.
Sophie hit Lillia with a fist full of her vexation.
Her powers didn’t work properly, so she was just her fist of water to Lilia.

“Give it back, give it back, give it back. I want you to return everything you stole.”
“… I know how you feel.”

Unlike before, Lilia said in a calm tone.
She bent her back slightly to bring her eye level with Sophie.

“I know that feeling well. I haven’t started anything, but I feel like everything is taken away. I know this because I have been through it too.”

The green pupil looking at Sophie was dead.

“But it’s useless to appeal like that.”

The dead pupil whispers.

“I can’t even go back to the way it was. Once stolen, you can’t get it back again. You and me too.”

Give up.
Just give it all away
Abandon the very fact that there is hope.

“So let’s set a new goal. Let’s aim to enjoy a happy life forever with me. Then you will be able to forget.”

Admit you’re in hell right now.
Admit that you will have no choice but to live in hell for the rest of your life.
Admit that no matter how much you struggle, nothing will change.

“I will wash away all your troubles. I’m happy to cry right now, so I’ll change it to crying.”

Seeing the empty green pupils that had given up everything, Sophie was speechless.
No matter what she wanted to say, she just couldn’t get it out of her mouth.

“I’ll make you happy for the rest of your life, Sophie.”

Because I saw the empty eyes, because I saw the madness coming out of those eyes.
Sophie said nothing.
Sophie could only watch trembling as Lilia pressed her face.

“It’s been too long. Let her go to the bath quickly. I’ll let you meet the queen specially.”

Afterwards, mother and daughter Sophie were washed.
Like a puppy being washed by its owner, every corner was washed by the hands of Lillia’s party.

She was Sophie’s mother and daughter, who washed her body clean after a long time, but she had no clothes to wear.

“Are you okay. Even if she goes around naked, no one can say anything. I’ll arrange it later, so let’s just think about meeting the queen for now.”

… Citing the absurd reason, Lilia refused to give her clothes.
She couldn’t help but be embarrassed, but Sophie and her daughter had no choice but to follow without a word.

As she walked down the aisle, she ran into some of her maids, but she didn’t say anything to anyone.

– Another victim?

– Poor people. Why did you get caught by that guy?

-Is that woman crazy? No matter what, you have to wear clothes.

It’s just that she feels sorry for her.

“Come on, Sophie. This is the queen you longed to see. If she has anything to say, let it go.”

Led by Lilia’s hand, Sophie’s mother and daughter came to the palace and faced Queen Belion.
Like them, the queen was not wearing a single thread.

●●●

“Lilia. Why did you bring these people?”

Bellion’s voice was filled with anger.

“Tell me why, now.”
“I brought it from the slums with the intention of having it as my pet.”
“You…”

Is that what you mean? Bellion tried to argue.
But she was speechless at what Lilia had to say about her.

“The refugees were all meant to be used as livestock anyway. And queen, you agreed to that.”
“…”
“Isn’t it good for them to have escaped that fate?”
“…”

It was true.
To use the refugees as livestock, Bellion agreed.
The reason is simple.
Because there is no reason to leave the slums any longer.
As long as it is decided to merge with the demon world, there is no reason for the slums to remain.
Erase it and build a congratulatory speech in its place.
They confine the poor in the barn and raise them.
In the name of cattle.

Everyone is destined to become livestock anyway, so Eris thought it wouldn’t be a problem to make them first.

“Come on, Sophie. Let’s go and talk, come on.”
“Now, wait a minute, if you push like this…”

Lilia pushes Sophie on the shoulder, asking her to talk.
Pushing as hard as she could, Lilia tripped.
Her head was buried in the arms of Bellion, who was sitting on the bed.

“Huh?”

Bellion groaned as his head was buried in his chest.

“I’m sorry, my queen. Me, i…”
“Oh, no. Are you okay. Don’t make a fuss.”

Sophie, startled and trying to stand up, Bellion wrapped her arms around her and calmed her down.

“Is there anything else you want to tell me?”
“That, that…”

There are many things I want to ask.
But may I ask?
Couldn’t she be put to death along with her mother because she offended her?
Sophie was confused in her head.

“Sophie, don’t worry.”

Sophie was reassured by Lilia.

“If Queen Bellion says something, we’ll retrain. Feel free to curse as much as you like.”
“…”

Can’t you just relax?
Belion, who heard this, also made a puzzled expression, but she soon let out a sigh of her own.

“Did you say Sophie? Talk It’s all that I’m dissatisfied with.”
“I-I…”
“You said your master wouldn’t let you go. So you can talk I have no intention of hurting you either.”
“… Then.”

After taking a few deep breaths, her Sophie opened her mouth.

“Why did you betray us?”
“…”
“I trusted the Queen. She said the queen would put everything back. She believed she could get me and her mom back in her house.”
“…”
“But why did you betray us? Why did you sell us as slaves to the demons?”
“…”

There was only one thing Bellion could say to her Sophie’s question.

“Because I was defeated.”
“Defeat… Because you did?”
“Because I was defeated by Eris. Because we lost the war So she had no choice but to make that decision.”

If we had fought on an equal footing, we wouldn’t have done this.
She must have looked for a chance to turn the tide, somehow finding a way to turn the tables.
She wouldn’t have easily said, ‘The kingdom is doomed’.

But she lost have been defeated have succumbed
I have become the underdog who has to listen to everything the winner wants.
I couldn’t help but be servile to her bastards.
Other than that, Bellion had no other options left.

“Was there no other way? Didn’t you see it even though it was there?”
“No, it wasn’t. Everything is blocked There was no answer other than to give it all to them.”
“So you’re asking me to conform? Is that the way to live?”
“… Huh.”

Bellion nodded her head in resignation.

“…”

Sophie lowered her head without saying anything.
And she started knocking.
He started beating Bellion’s body with his powerless fists.

“I believed, I believed…”
“…”
“I thought I could go back…”
“…”
“Why, why, why, why, why…”

Every time he punched his fist, tears dripped onto the floor.
There was only one thing Bellion could do for Sophie who was crying sadly.

“Sorry.”

I’m just sorry.

“Sorry. I’m really sorry. I am so sorry for taking away your dreams.”

I’m really sorry for taking away your hope.

“I don’t have the qualifications to say this, but I will take responsibility until the end. Both you and your mother.”

So I will take care of you until the end.

“I will take responsibility until the end so that all the people of this kingdom are not fed.”

I will take care of you until the end even if my life is at an end.

“I will do my best to protect you. So don’t cry.”
“Huh, uhhhhh…”

This was the only thing Bellion could do now.

No one laughed at these two.

At the same time, no one comforted these two.

I just look at it with a complicated expression.
