Chapter 138: Confirmed kill (3)
The castle of the Demon World, the Seven Deadly Sins, including Satan.
After seeing the whole situation, Satan spoke.
“Turn off the screen.”
Astaroth moved again. When the screen turned off, everyone’s eyes turned to Satan.
“… Satan.”
“This is it.”
Satan mutters quietly to Mammon’s cautious voice. He lifted his head and placed his hand on his face.
His breath flows between his fingers and between his lips.
“Frondier, don’t you know what you’ve done?”
Frondier declared himself the king of demons. Immediately after Satan made that declaration.
What does this look like in Zeus’ eyes now?
‘It would be good for Zeus to know whether Frondier was originally human or a demon. What matters is that he saved 72 demons. Even attacking Zeus himself.’
Frondier, who calls himself the king of demons and has shown considerable power.
In addition, he fired an unidentified black spear at Zeus, and it even looked as if he had saved the devil by sacrificing himself.
From Zeus’ point of view, Frondier is already the king of demons.
‘The problem is that it was Aster who actually cut off his head.’
Since Zeus was possessed, even if he beheaded him, he would not be hurt.
What is important is that humanity’s hope was against the Olympian god.
It was a natural choice for Aster. Frontier was his companion, and most of those there were human. Zeus tried to kill everyone there.
Zeus tried to show his authority, but was defeated by Aster.
However, God cannot come down to kill a single human being, and Aster cannot be easily killed through possession, and faith will continue to decline for no reason.
It is obvious where that anger will go.
“Zeus will come this way. “The devil king will come to question the two of you.”
Lucifer said.
Satan put his hand on his face and said just like that.
“What if I say I don’t know about this?”
“Why don’t you try it? “I wonder what will happen.”
“Damn it.”
If Satan responds incorrectly here, he may end up in the same league as Frontier. From the beginning, each declared himself the king of demons, delaying Zeus’ arrival at the capital of Palma. He might be suspected of having had that scenario in the first place.
‘Frondier’s operation has too many risk factors. Especially in that it swallows up all of the enemy’s operations.’
The frontier incorporates his opponent’s schemes into his own strategy. To a third party, it almost looks like the two are one team. Satan, Aphrodite, Athena, Bael, etc. Seem to have been on Frontier’s side from the beginning.
But this way is not normal. It may be successful once or twice through a trick, but it is not a sustainable method.
Drawing big pictures may sound good, but most of them are torn apart before they are completed.
However, Frontier was successful, and as long as it was successful, all of the effects that Frontier aimed for were achieved.
“Prove that you have nothing to do with Frontier… It’s not easy. Because it’s actually irrelevant. On the contrary, if there had been a relationship, I would have prepared evidence showing that there was no relationship.”
“Okay. “After presuming guilt, you are asked to bring evidence of innocence.”
Satan raised his head and gently closed his eyes.
The eyes that slowly opened again were the same as before they were closed.
In other words, that action didn’t do much to change his decision.
It was decided what to do.
“I can’t help it.”
“Are you sure you’re going to do it?”
When Mammon asked, Satan shrugged his shoulders.
“No matter what, we can’t be enemies with the Lord.”
Satan looked around at all the seven deadly sins.
He spoke plainly, but it was a declaration.
“If you show me that I am an enemy of Frontier, there is no need to prove my innocence.”

Furfur was looking at me blankly, not knowing what I was talking about.
No, you know what I mean. I just don’t think I really know.
I was wondering how to explain it to Furfur,
“You are a traitor.”
I just told it briefly.
“Well, that can’t be possible! “I am not a traitor!”
Pur Pur lowered his head deeper.
When I saw that, I scratched my cheek.
What is it? I don’t want to be bothered anymore.
“Furfur, I’m sorry, but I have no intention of discussing whether you are a traitor or not. I have no reason to listen to you. “Of course, why would I listen to a kid who says he’s not a traitor?”
“Huh, but… !”
“Let’s do this instead.”
I raised my index finger.
“You are making a contract with me.”
“Are you talking about a contract, a contract?”
“You show me the location of the gate. And I don’t hold you accountable for your betrayal. How is it?”
At my words, Purpur kept his mouth shut. The sound of his head rolling can be heard up to here.
The contract trap I just mentioned is so easy to understand that it’s probably troublesome.
“… That contract was too…”
“Do you want to change?”
“…”
That’s why you want to change it. Regardless of whether it’s my responsibility to betray or not, I can kill Furfur whenever I want. Bael and half of the 72 demons came into me.
However, changing the contract means admitting that you betrayed yourself. And my true intention is there.
‘Because I’m not really interested in Furfur’s life.’
I just wish I could get the information quickly. The conversation will only work if Furfur admits his betrayal.
I had no choice but to speak with magical power.
“I declare.”
My voice filled with mana was very awkward for me to hear.
“I will make a contract with Furfur, and I will not harm Furfur until I make it.”
This is what I heard from Elodie, and it is said that if you speak with mana in it, the words cannot be picked up.
That’s the way words are, but storing mana is an act of placing light restraints and restrictions on yourself. It’s not a lie or a joke.
“That’s enough now, right? “You better not miss the opportunity.”
“… All right.”
Purpur nodded his head.
He also spoke with mana.
“I will show you the location of the gate. Instead, I ask that you and all my companions refrain from attacking me until I cross over to the demon world. Of course, including the 72 devils.”
“Good.”
I grinned.
Bael, who was listening at that time, shouted.
“Purpuru, it’s really you!!”
It’s an angry face. Furfur just admitted that he was a traitor.
Furfur glanced at Bael and said.
“Don’t be so upset, Bael. “I’m not the only one who does this.”
“What, what!”
“We can no longer wait for you.”
Bael stopped at Furfur’s words. It looked like he was shocked, but his face showed that something was coming.
“Bael, you are losing your strength. And I know I won’t get it back.”
“No, I…” … !”
“Don’t try to fool other demons anymore.”
Furfur glanced around.
“Do you want to lose more than this?”
“Yes, you… !”
Bael clenched his fists.

He was listening in silence, but I think this was enough.
“Now then, where are we? “Where is the gate?”
“… Frontier, what do you plan to do when you get to the gate?”
“Whatever, I’d like to say that you all should be sent to the Demon World.”
Originally, the 72 devils were supposed to be in the demon world.
And once you find the location of the gate, you will pass over to the Demon World, whether you are a devil loyal to me or not. Anyway, all 72 demons were hoping to return to the demon world.
But there, Furfur’s face became deeply troubled. No, Bael and the other 72 demons had similar faces.
When I saw that, I laughed bitterly.
“It doesn’t work that way.”
“… Frontier, you know the situation. “It has changed.”
“Yes.”
Elodie asked there.
“What are you talking about? “You’re not going to send me to the Demon World?”
“I feel like I want to do that, but it’s because Satan abandoned the 72 devils.”
“… ? What does it matter? “Isn’t it okay to eat well and live well?”
The Demon World is one world. Regardless of whether Satan abandons them or not, all they have to do is live in a place that has nothing to do with Satan.
In the first place, the 72 devils and the seven deadly sins are unrelated. There would be nothing else to do but throw it away.
It’s usually like that, but this time it’s different.
Arald came and explained to Elodie.
“The problem is that Satan has declared himself the king of demons. In front of Zeus.”
“Why is that?”
“And Frontier also declared. “The king of demons.”
“Well, you did say that.”
Because he had to stop the war.
“The reason Satan called himself the king of devils was to get rid of the 72 devils. Because he wouldn’t want to confront God. “He may have thought he got away with it, but from Zeus’s perspective, there was a demon king in Palma too.”
“If you’re Zeus, you probably know that Frondier isn’t a devil, right?”
“I once asked Frondier to become the king of demons. “I said the same thing back then, but there is no need for you to become a devil.”
Demons with folded wings are indistinguishable from humans.
Even more so if you are the main god who knows that the ‘power of the devil’ is Eclexis.
What is important is not whether the person is human or evil.
What kind of action do you take?
He calls himself the king of demons, has the power to match, seeks to protect demons, and fights against God.
I have already shown you a lot of evidence. To Zeus.
“Zeus will think he has been tricked. To Satan. Satan must prove otherwise.”
“It’s proof.”
“The simplest way is to oppose the 72 demons yourself.”
“… Aha.”
What I protected was the 72 devils. Zeus knows that too.
So Satan will attack the 72 devils.
Probably, the moment you enter the demon world, all 72 demons will try to kill you. All of the Seven Deadly Sins will move like that.
Bael said there.
“… So even if you know the location of the gate, you can’t use it right away. “You have to stay in Edrium for a while.”
Elodie frowned there.
“What is it. Frontier has already saved 72 demons. He said he wanted to return to the demon world. But now I can’t go back.”
Then he jerked and glared at Arald.
“And the King of Demons, did you ask Frondier for that?”
“… Because it was absolutely necessary. “I had no choice.”
“Can not help it?”
Wow, Elodie’s eyes burned.
“To what extent is it unavoidable? “I’m really curious.”
“…”
Arald bowed his head deeply and did not reply.
“Elodie, calm down. “It worked out better.”
I said there.
“I can’t believe it went well. They went through so much trouble to send them to the demon world, but they can’t go back. He even did the dangerous thing of calling himself the king of demons.”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
I nodded.
“I want to become king.”
“… Huh?”
Elodie saw me there.
No, everyone who heard my voice saw me.
“You want to become the king of demons? Frontier, it was just a way to prevent war.”
“Well, that’s true, but after a long time, a powerful force is on my side.”
“No, Frontier. 72The devil is not on your side! They are demons! “How do you know when to betray someone and say something like that?”
The devil doesn’t know when to betray. That is correct.
So I saw Bael.
“Bael, each of you had an army of demons, right?”
“Yes.”
“Aren’t you one of the Seven Deadly Sins or something?”
“Each of us is at the top of the devil. “It has nothing to do with the Seven Deadly Sins in the first place.”
Yes. It’s as expected.
There is no one above the Seven Deadly Sins.
So.
“Let’s have a hazing ceremony to commemorate becoming king.”
I raise my finger,
Cooung—!
Ecclesis was fired at all 72 demons.
In an instant, all the demons fell to their knees.
“Huh, huh… !”
Each of the demons took a deep breath and looked up at me. Even Bael.
They did not kneel intentionally. That’s just the result.
However, this has been proven.
The simplest law of devils.
72The devil has no one on him.
That is, a vacant position.
So, by the devil’s law, they are now mine.
“You’re not going to betray me now, are you?”
I grinned and spoke to all the kneeling demons.
