006. 3 is missing from 13
“The kingdom of Hilderan has been turned upside down.”
“He has a swollen liver.”
mumble-
Drakson took a large bite of the dripping red meat.
“I told you to kidnap the princess, so I kidnapped the princess of Hilderan. Also the princess. What do you think it means?”
“It proves that he is arrogant and foolish.”
Adjutant, Casey decided.
“On the basis?”
“The first time I dared insult the standard at the graduation ceremony of the Demon King Military Academy, the second time I showed my teeth to the Demon King, and the third time I didn’t even know Arain properly with overflowing confidence. He’s overconfident and doesn’t look around.”
“I thought he wouldn’t follow the standard. However, while kidnapping the Crown Princess, I kept it faithfully. How am I supposed to see this?”
I thought I wouldn’t kidnap the princess. Even if it was kidnapped, I never imagined that it would target the Crown Princess with the highest succession to the throne according to the standard.
“If it was a normal Demon Lord, it would be possible. But he is the one who treated standard as garbage. But do you think it is right to keep the standard more faithfully than anyone else?”
“But other things have been broken. His tower is on a rough terrain that refuses to walk, and he has chosen a distant kingdom over his near one.”
“I can’t figure it out.”
Agjak-
Drakson nervously chewed on the bare lump of bone.
“But I think the desire to keep the standard is bigger.”
“The reason is?”
“Because he has nothing but a lieutenant. That’s why we follow the standard in the best way according to the situation.”
There is no possibility for Berge that even if they are newcomers who have just arrived, they might not be able to take on the challenge.
“Are you adapting to the situation?”
“Without troops, we built a tower on Mount Erzest to minimize clashes. But I want to protect the standard, so I kidnapped the Crown Princess.”
“He is the one who insulted the standard at the graduation ceremony. Don’t forget that. But what you said after coming to Araine is the most appropriate.”
“It doesn’t make sense to pretend that you hate standard and like it more than anyone else, right?”
“Is it another?”
The Demon King and the lieutenant were silent. After a while, the Demon King opened his mouth again.
“Let’s call him first. So, you did well so far, so should I give you a compliment?”
Let’s think about what kind of intentions we have.
* * *
The reason I felt the abnormality was because there were too many magic spirits that were replaced with points through the tower.

·····················································································?
rubbed your eyes However, the number did not change.
Why is this?
It was a little too many for the sheep gathered in a few days after kidnapping an illegitimate child princess that even the king didn’t care about.
“My lord. This is a communication from the Demon Lord Draxon.”
“In addition?”
It was then that Drakson contacted him.
“I called to congratulate you. We broke up badly, but as a senior demon king, I should give him that much respect.”
『He hated standards and then faithfully followed standards. Even though being different on the outside and inside is one of the values of a great demon, you are beyond just being great. You forgot, something?”
“What nonsense?”
“Do you want to remove Shichimi until the end? I won’t ask any more questions if you want.”
“Did you turn your head after eating raw meat? I’m asking what you mean.”
“Is there any reason to hide it so much? Well, that’s good. If you want, I’ll tell you with my mouth.”
“It means that I don’t like you, but I admire your performance. You said you already had a plan, but I didn’t know that you would bring the Crown Princess of the Hilderan Kingdom.”
···The Crown Princess?
『I don’t know if it was planned or if it was just a hit, but I wish you good luck. In any case, if everything goes well as a Demon King, wouldn’t it be good for all of us?」
The crystal ball has lost its light.
“·················ogue.”
And I was at a loss for words.
What did I just hear?
Crown Princess? 13 Isn’t she a princess?
A deep ominous feeling crossed my mind. The back was stiff.
When I woke up, I was already running towards the 4th floor.
‘I can’t.’
13 This is a princess brought from the palace of the princess.
True to its reputation as an illegitimate illegitimate child indifferent to even the king, there was no one around the palace.
Even she was neither a knight nor a wizard.
‘The Crown Princess is an Elemental Magician.’
The southern part of the continent, including Hilderan, was not my area of activity, but the Crown Princess of Hilderan was quite famous.
A genius spirit magician who signed a contract with four attribute spirits at a young age with outstanding talent.
Because of his crazy obsession in the kingdom of Hilderan, none of the demon lords even dared to touch him.
So it can’t be.
The Crown Princess would have had a lot of mana in her body.
If it was the Crown Princess, it would have been overflowing with escorts around her.
If it was the Crown Princess, she wouldn’t even have been in the 13th Princess’ bedroom.
The moment I set foot on the 4th floor while rationalizing myself like that.
I found something that shouldn’t be there.
There was a ‘wall’.
There was a ‘spirit’ who was patting the earthen wall that blocked the corner of the empty land where there should be nothing.
laughter came out.
“Are you here?”
The door made of clay opened at an amazing timing. A princess with a rather ugly face and beauty that did not lose its brilliance came out naturally.
I pushed her and went inside.

Mud beds, earth furniture, and even earth chairs. It was never an area that the 13 Princesses, who had no powers, could do it.The obvious traces of the spirit could not be known unless they knew it.
What’s even funnier.
‘··· Mana is full.’
Things that had not been felt until the moment of kidnapping her and taking her to the fourth floor raised her skin.
“…what are you?”
“I don’t know the definition of the question.”
“13 Princesses.”
I shot her
“It’s not . . .”
“Of course I am not Elena.”
At that short question and answer, the last hope was shattered. She opened her eyes wide.
“Could you mistake me for Elena…?”
“name.”
“This is Ernya Hilderan.”
1 princess The first princess and Crown Princess who made a name for themselves as an excellent spirit magician in a previous life was right.
“Why are you here?”
“Because you kidnapped me.”
The question is wrong.
“Isn’t that the 13th Princess’ Palace?”
“Right.”
“Why were you there?”
“Is that a problem?”
It becomes a problem. That too a lot.
“So I asked. You kidnapped me and asked if you could handle it.”
Obviously it was. Why didn’t I ask what I believed in then? 13 Maybe I should have asked if it was the princess.
“I thought it was strange, but it was just a mistake, right? After all, no matter how crazy the demon lords are, they won’t touch the successors of each country.”
She gave a self-helpful laugh.
“How are you going to send me back now?”
Her choice of language, as natural as flowing water, touched me.
“gibberish.”
She thinks I’ll get her back of course.
At one time, I was frightened because I destroyed several kingdoms and achieved achievements that no other demon lord could achieve.
“It’s true that you were trying to kidnap the 13th Princess, but it doesn’t change anything about you.”
On a trivial human subject, you dare.
‘I’m not scared.’
just step back for a while. It is just a breath-taking for ten steps forward.
She didn’t say anything. But the strange eyes were annoying.
“I’m not going to send you back.”
So I gave a confirmation.
‘Hilderan and Erzest are polar opposites.’
the northern part of the continent and the southern part of the continent. That’s a place where you can’t come until you bring a legion.
‘There, Mount Erzest itself is a heavenly fortress.’
It is a report of monsters that have not yet been touched by humans.
Even as the Demon Lord, there are some people who are unable to do it right away due to the power of interference, and a blizzard rages incessantly.
No matter how many warriors, how many people can climb?

Much less is this place hidden in the basin. Can’t find it even if it comes up.So.
“I am the Demon King and you are a princess. If you want to go back quietly, it would be better not to provoke me anymore.”
“···I know.”
The princess, Ernap, agreed.
“But how did you deceive me? You obviously didn’t feel any mana, did you?”
“···that.”
After hesitating for a moment, Ernya smirked and put on the ring.
At that moment, the spirits disappeared. The floating mana disappeared without a trace.
“…a piece of equipment.”
No matter how weak you are, how dare you deceive my eyes.
“It is a treasure passed down from generation to generation. I heard that it was an artifact used by a hero in the past.”
“It’s a warrior’s piece…”
Even if it was weak, it wouldn’t be an ordinary thing if it was enough to deceive the Demon King. greed arose.
That moment.
[The lost emotion has found its goal.]
[Many anger towards the Demon King, Berge Deias has been captured.]
They identified me.
The real magic collection began.
* * *
splendid palace. The atmosphere of Daejeon, where dozens of nobles gathered, subsided.
“how···.”
The king swallowed his anger.
“What were these escort knights doing?”
There was no shouting, but the low anger in his voice gave off a chill.
“···I am sorry. While the princess turned away from the knights and headed for the Hyacinth Palace.”
“So.”
The king lowered his throne. Crushed fragments disturbed the Daejeon floor.
“Does it make sense that the escort knights were unaware of the disappearance of the Crown Princess of the kingdom?”
“Kill me!”
“Kill me!”
The knights fell flat.
“If you really want to die, you can have my own head beheaded.”
“·················ogue.”
“Your Majesty, I think we should first find out who kidnapped the princess.”
“Who is who? Of course it must be the Demon King.”
No matter how much Ernian acted, it was a royal palace. The Demon Kings are the only ones with the ability to break through the Guards and the Guards Knights and kidnap the princess without a word.
The Demon King is a specialist that no one can match when it comes to kidnapping.
That’s why. Even if they break their necks right now, they’re saving the frivolous guard knights.
“The reason why the demon kings broke the unwritten rules and kidnapped Princess Ernap…”
“Jim, that’s the question. It wouldn’t be possible unless they suddenly turned around.”
“Not long ago, the demon king of lust touched the Crown Prince of the Akan Kingdom and was not beheaded by hundreds of warriors? I also saw an example of that, and they . . . ”
Instead of speaking, he exclaimed. The kings and nobles who pondered his words also realized.
“…a new one has come down.”
“If the existing Demon King has moved, there is no way the Heroes Guild will not notice even the slightest sign. That will be right.”
“Things like parasites. It shows up consistently without getting tired.”
The king sharpened his teeth.
“I’ll put the quest to the Heroes’ Guild right away.”
“I don’t want to even think about how much money these bastards will ask for.”
“Aren’t we supposed to save the princess first?”
“Yes, yes.”
Ernap was his hope.
The overwhelming talent beyond himself and the qualities of a king were enough vessels to contain all of the kingdom’s long-standing aspirations.
The vessel was stolen, and everything inside was overturned. So you have to find at any cost. And you have to set an example. so that no one dares to look into it.
“It doesn’t matter how much it costs. Track the gnome and find the location of the tower. And ask the Heroes’ Guild to have him beheaded and find the princess.”
“I take orders!”
The wave of the Hilderan Kingdom ran in all directions.
* * *
“We have discovered the traces of the new demon king and princess!”
“The course is north! Through the movement magic circle, I have crossed several kingdoms to the north!”
“Mo, the destination is … presumed to be Mount Erzest. After that, there are no witnesses.”
At first, the Hilderan Kingdom and the Heroes’ Guild took this matter somewhat lightly.
I felt unbearable anger in the part where I dared to kidnap the Crown Princess of the kingdom, but it was funny when I found out the truth.
The stupidity of the newly summoned rookie Demon King.
He just did what he did without even knowing where Araine was. Of course, I thought it would be easy to deal with.
“A newly summoned Demon King is very weak. They immediately mobilize the warriors and behead them.”
However, when the destination, where the tower is supposed to be located, turned out to be Mount Erzest, it was difficult.
“why?”
“No, did someone so far away come all the way to Hilderan?”
“It’s a different move from other demon kings.”
The Demon King’s Tower wasn’t even close to the kingdoms, but it wasn’t too dangerous either.
Also, it didn’t work well with a kingdom that was too far away.
I don’t know why, but that was normal. Because of that, the people of Arain were used to it.
At that point, the new demon lord broke the norm.
If it had been normal, I could have just moved on, thinking that the demon king caused a whim. The problem was that the Hilderan Kingdom and the Hero Guild that received the quest were in a position to save the princess.
“The Erzest Mountains?”
“You want me to go into that crazy place?”
The warriors refused the quest.
The Erzest Mountains were rough terrain where nine out of ten people died due to the snow wind blowing in all seasons and monsters from the snowy mountains.
No matter how much power he received from the world, there was something about it.
“I want to catch the Demon King, I don’t want to commit suicide!”
Naturally, the rescue of the princess was stopped.
“I will go by myself. I will lead the army and push the snowy mountains away.”
“your majesty!”
“It’s impossible!”
“I will not stand still in another country!”
“Then you mean to leave the princess alone!”
“There are suitable warriors.”
“Who are you?”
The king was baffled.
“Do you remember the heroes who participated in the subjugation of the demon king of lust a while ago?”
“Did you say that about two hundred people came and not even half of them survived? There were only three survivors who faced the Demon King directly.”
“Among them, there is an outstanding warrior who made a great contribution to the beheading of the Demon King. Your Majesty knows…”
“Healon! Hilan Cargill, the hero of Hilderan!”
“Yes, that’s right! If he does, he will be able to climb the mountain range and cut off the head of the Demon King!”
“But do you think he will accept it? Seeing what hasn’t appeared yet…”
“He is obsessed with fame, so if you send knights and nail them in front of the people…”
“Oh.”
The king and ministers nodded curiously.
* * *
“…God damn it.”
[45228pt]
The displaced magic power rises steeply. It was a huge achievement, but I couldn’t help but be happy with it purely.
That means Hilderan’s anger is great.
Because the response will be certain.
The only thing I can trust is the blessed fortress of Erzest.
The problem is that they are strong warriors who don’t even work.
“If they can climb a mountain and find a tower, they are at my current level.”
Will you replace all the magic you have obtained with my own?
‘No, that’s not very good.’

Magi, with negative emotions replaced, can do many things while interlocking with the tower’s system.Reduce the level of interference given to the Demon King and Demons, personally absorb and raise the force itself, assign monsters, set up all kinds of magic circles and traps in the tower, or expand the area of the tower through demonization.
But none of that is for sure right now.

Magi is rising steeply, but it is far from enough to respond to a single kingdom he has decided on.‘You must use a different number.’
In other words, it would block them by interfering with their actions.
‘okay.’
Like lightning, something came to mind.
‘After all, I made up my mind to become a black shroud…’
I can’t do it with my own hands, but can’t I borrow someone else’s hand to interfere with the warriors?
‘Humans are the ones whose personal greed takes priority above all else. And the greatest of greed is money.’
People who betray their country, betray groups, betray brothers and sisters, and even betray their parents.
If I could use them to turn the hero’s steps into mud.
“Gordon!”
“Yes, my lord.”
Gordon, who was waiting outside, came in.
“Call Draxon immediately.”
“What do you say?”
“Ask if you’d like to buy Hilderan’s Magi with human money.”
None of the demon lords used it, but they were able to deliver each other’s magic using the tower.
