Chapter 102 Repeat (3)
After that, Frondier first sent Bael away.
Since a significant number of low-level demons have already died here, they would hesitate to make any more sacrifices in Agoris.
Bael was essential to explain the situation to them.
“Are you saying you’re letting me go like this?”
On the contrary, Bael was suspicious of Frondier.
Frondier shrugged his shoulders.
“Now we’re on the same side, right?”
Frondier smiles while saying that. The smile given to the devil is so friendly.
“… … “Do what feels good.”
After saying that, Bael left. Not towards the Empire, but towards the west where Agoris would be.
Marco, who was watching it, said.
“There is no such thing as being on the same side as the devil, Frondier. They just join hands for momentary gain. Otherwise, the only way is to obey him or rise above him.”
“Yes, I know.”
Bael is now unaffected by Frontier’s demonic power.
Bael was defeated by Pantemonium and was expelled. Frontier just forced him to bring it back. So the two are not in a submissive relationship.
Frontier also has no intention of completely trusting Bael.
However, in a situation where mutual benefits are clear, it doesn’t really matter whether you believe it or not.
Unless he’s stupid, Bael would know better what to do now.
“You can worry about yourself, Marco.”
Frondier said to Marco.
“Bael let me go, but you won’t be like that.”
Marco is now Satan’s subordinate. still.
Moreover, since Frontier revealed Marco’s situation to Bael, it is difficult to go back to 72 Demons.
Marco raised both hands.
“I have already surrendered to you. So I told you all that information. “Isn’t that right?”
“But I haven’t even used the devil’s power on you yet.”
The power of the devil that can more clearly take advantage of one’s strength and make it one’s side. Frondier pondered whether to use it on Marco as well.
But Marco shook his head.
“That won’t help. The devil’s power itself may work, but you won’t expect it to produce obedience.”
“Why?”
“I have already received demonic power from Satan. “The devil’s power cannot be overwritten.”
“… … Even if my power is stronger than Satan’s?”
Marco laughed at those words. It wasn’t that I looked down on Frondier, it was because his curiosity was aroused.
“I’m curious too. Which side is stronger? But even if you are stronger, it’s still the same. If such a thing were allowed, the devil would cut off its obedience and serve a new devil every time a stronger devil used its power. That’s why it’s such a mess.”
Once a devil has received the power of a devil, the power of other devils cannot be used. If such a thing is possible, even if one uses demonic power, one cannot trust one’s subordinates. You never know when another devil will take over.
“If you want to use demonic power to make me submit, there is only one way. “It’s about killing Satan.”
“… … “The order is completely reversed.”
“ha ha ha. yes.”
Frondier sighed.
In that case, let’s give up using the devil’s power on Marco and finish what we have in mind.
“You will come with me like this.”
“Where?”
“To my friends. “I need to tell you exactly what you just said.”
Marco tilted his head at those words.
“You’re going to make me meet other humans? “Your position will only be in trouble.”
The people of the Empire do not tolerate demons.
If the entire situation up to now is told, it is obvious what the image of Frontier will be like.
People will say that you are on the devil’s side, or that you are an even greater devil who deals with the devil.
“doesn’t care.”
Frontier said:
“I can’t solve it alone anyway.”
* * *
After the situation was resolved, Aster contacted Frontier again.
Both were able to complete the job without any problems.
The two asked after each other, sighed in relief, and Aster let everyone hear Frondier’s voice.
Frontier said on the other end of the phone.
─Let’s meet then. The location is the mansion you guys went to.
At those words, Aster and the others looked into each other’s eyes.
Saibel, who was listening from the side, said.
“If it’s a mansion, is it where all those demons gathered?”
─Yes. It will be easier to understand if I explain it there.
Frontier’s voice is not particularly different from usual.
But they all felt anxious for no reason.
Everyone I met in that mansion was clearly a devil. However, they cooperated with Aster and his party, and that was undoubtedly the power of Frontier.
So what on earth did Frontier do?
It was not easy for any of them to understand that they were humans collaborating with the devil.
“Are you okay?”
Elodie asked.
─Yes. are you okay. I’ll explain everything.
Since Frondier declared so, others could not refute it.
It took a while to get there, but they all wanted to meet Frontier.
Apart from Elodie, no one has met Frontier since the war. Of course, there’s Selena, but I saw her a week after the war ended and haven’t seen her since.
“good. See you there.”
─Yes.
If it’s short, it’s a short call.
Aster and the others checked each other’s faces. The look in their eyes as they check for injuries, see each other’s condition, and bring their hearts together.
“Okay, let’s go.”
With Aster’s declaration, they all moved.
Of course, all the demons in the abandoned house were dead.
Aster did not leave a single one of the demons here. Even the demons that Runia restrained with her magic circle.
… … .
When they arrived at the mansion, Frondier was already waiting inside. With other demons.
‘how?’
Of course, it was very difficult to understand. How could the Frontier, who was at the western end beyond the wall, come faster than them?
They don’t know that Frontier has a portal connected to the cabin. And from his cabin, this mansion was closer than they were.
“Frondier!”
Of course, joy preceded such questions.
The colleagues’ faces turned bright red when they saw Frontier’s face. Looking at them, Frontier smiled.
It was a comfortable smile that even he hadn’t seen in a long time.
“Frondier! how have you been doing?”
“Why isn’t Constell showing up?”
“I heard you became Lia Lis’ knight? “There was a scary rumor?”
“When are you coming back? “What about Constell?”
Everyone who approached Frontier said one thing at a time.
Frontier was a little embarrassed by the barrage of questions that had been coming his way for the first time in a long time, but he explained slowly.
Then, he immediately turns his attention to Aster.
“Aster. long time no see.”
“okay. Thank you so much. “Thanks to you, I saved Runia.”
Runia, who was next to me, looked somewhere else, looking a little embarrassed.
“no. Because Runia was kidnapped because of me. “I’m glad you’re safe, Runia.”
Runia, who was a little hesitant there, muttered in a low voice.
“… … “Every time a colleague is in danger, you shouldn’t blame yourself.”
“huh?”
“I heard that you have become as skilled as Aster.”
This time, Runia spoke while looking directly at Frontier.
“A strong person has no choice but to hurt his comrades. Because enemies will target people who are precious to him. “If you feel guilty every time that happens, there’s no end to it.”
“… … .”
“It’s not your fault. Because they are the ones who decided to go with you. “Everything is your responsibility.”
Frondier’s eyes widened slightly at those words. My hands were shaking without realizing it and I was clenching.
“… … What, what! “I wasn’t that close to you, so in this case, I feel a bit unfair!”
Then Runia turns her head again.
Frontier laughed at that.
“Thank you, Runia.”
“… … it’s okay.”
Runia became blunt again.
Frondier looked at Aster.
“As expected, you have eyes to see, you.”
“Well, that’s right.”
Runia lowered her head to the conversation between the two. My face turns red.
“Okay, let’s stop talking about that and get to the point.”
The person who saved her was none other than Dier Ager.
“Senior Frontier, we have obtained some information, but there is still a lot missing. Can you tell us? “What is the situation now?”
Frondier nodded at that.
“okay. “I’ll tell you everything.”
After saying that, Frondier looked around the inside of the mansion.
“Actually, the reason I called you here is because I have something to say to these demons.”
“… … After all, everyone here is a devil.”
Dier looked around and tensed.
Then, suddenly, my eyes fall on Marco.
“… … “This is my first time seeing that devil.”
Frontier looking at Dier.
“… … “Do you really think you remembered all these people?”
“no. No way. How can I remember everything? “But this is my first time seeing that man.”
… … So you’re saying you remembered everything? Is it a little different?
“oh! “That man!”
Someone there raised their voice.
It was Cybel. She pointed a finger at Marco, igniting his hostility.
“This is the demon that Aten and I fought! “It’s Satan’s devil!”
“… … yes that’s right. “It’s definitely true.”
Aten agrees and equally raises his guard.
Frondier looked at Marco.
Marco sighs at that.
“I wanted to fight, but I was the one who got hurt. Especially to that woman named Cybel. I was burned, electrocuted, and all my limbs were blown off. That wasn’t a fight. “It was a one-sided assault.”
After hearing that, Cybel shouted.
“hey! you! Are you making fun of your words because you think someone might be the 72 devil? What kind of one-sided assault is that! “It wasn’t even painful!”
“What are you talking about? It hurts very much. Even if regeneration is possible, it does not mean that there is no pain.”
“lie! “Why does someone who can’t die feel pain?”
“I don’t lie. “You know it well.”
“There is no basis for that!”
That is correct. The other party members who were listening to the conversation between the two also gradually took up their fighting stance.
“Wait a minute, I’m sorry, but Marco has surrendered to me now. “There is no need to fight.”
“… … Surrender?”
Aster’s voice changes and he asks again.
“What’s the point in doing that?”
“… … Aster.”
“He is a devil. That alone is reason enough to kill it. But that guy is the leader of the demons that attacked Constel. “Is there any reason to tolerate a guy like that if he surrenders now?”
“… … .”
Frontier remained silent.
Aster’s words were correct. Marco is the leader of the demons who attacked Constell. The fact that they were not seriously injured is only a result, and Robald Liev, who is not here right now, is injured.
Humans hate devils. The fact that it is a devil itself is a clear reason why it must be defeated.

“Get out of there, Frontier. You said he was the one who never dies, right? Let’s see how far we can play.”
Aster’s hand reaches for the sword. Marco’s eyes lowered at that.
Of course, Marco would not die from Aster’s blow, but he had no intention of being hit anyway. Because it is true that you feel pain.
The reason Marco is following Frondier now is because he is the only human who might threaten his life.
However, there are this many people, and they are all people with extraordinary skills. In this situation, once caught, a hell of repeated rebirth and destruction unfolds.
There is no reason to endure such things and follow Frontier.
“… … “Marco.”
At that time, Frontier called Marco. His eyes involuntarily turned to Frondier.
“Sleep for a moment.”
For a moment, Marco didn’t know what that meant.
And by the time I found out, it was too late.
“──You, son of a b*tch,”
dump
Marco collapsed. So suddenly and in vain.
Everyone looked at Frondier in surprise at the absurd sight.
“Well, what did you do? Frontier?”
Elodie asked in surprise.
Even for her with excellent magical abilities and perception, the scene just now was too bizarre.
“… … Everyone, I have something to tell you. “To the demons here in the mansion.”
After saying that, Frondier looked around at the demons in the mansion.
Thanks to the already considerable tension, everyone was watching Frontier.
“The devil from the west, Agoris, does not come.”
“… … !”
“Because me and my friends here stopped it.”
The demons swallowed the sound for a moment and looked at the frontier. They stood still in breathtaking silence,
Coogung!
Eventually, he got down on his knees and bowed his head towards Frondier.
As numerous demons in the mansion kneeled down at the same time, a huge sound echoed inside.
“… … Frontier, what are you?”
There Aster saw Frondier.
Seeing those eyes slowly turning into suspicion and hostility, Frondier lets out a small sigh.
‘… … Well, I knew that.’
It hurts, even if it’s the pain you’re expecting.
It’s only natural.
“Aster, and everyone.”
Frondier said while looking at Aster and his companions.
“I’m going to save the demons here. “Including Marco.”
“… … I’m serious?”
“okay. And that’s how to prevent war.”
Sreung!
Aster pulled out his sword. The tip of the sword was pointed at Frondier, not anyone else.
“… … The devil is the enemy. There’s no need to save it. “You can’t do that.”
“Sorry, Aster. You know it too. I don’t forgive my enemies. “It’s the same even if you’re a human.”
Frontier knows.
What is the devil’s perception of this empire?
And now, with the presence of demons attacking Constel, what do they think about demons in general?
However, Frontier had been fighting Cape Mango until recently.
Although the leadership was a demon, Mangot was all human.
Frontier fought not only against demons, but also against humans, and even more so against gods.
That’s why he said.
Despite knowing the empire’s perception.
“Devils are no different from humans.”
“… … Frontier!”
Aster held the sword with both hands.
The tilted tip of the sword was located in a straight line with Aster’s line of sight.
“Aster!”
Elodie shouted as if trying to stop him.
Needless to say,
Aster’s posture was at a standstill.
