126 – All-out War (2)
We decided to infiltrate and moved towards the Demon King’s army’s main base.
The distance from the main base was not very far.
No. In fact, it was incredibly far, but thanks to Lin’s transfer, I was able to get there quickly.
So we arrived near our destination.
Immediately disguised myself as a demon.
Soon, that time when I take a step in disguise.
– Jeopuk. Jeez.
I found a passing demon.
Just looking at the fact that he’s armed makes me feel like I’ve snorted a bit.
I don’t know exactly what your identity is, but it’s clear that it’s not the lowest level.
“Jane. “Suppress that guy.”
“Yes. All right. Young master.”
The next moment, Jane suddenly disappeared before my eyes.
At the same time.
-Pow!
It appears in front of a demon that was on guard, and knocks it out at once with a slap on the back of its neck.
Then, she joins this side, dragging her demon.
I glanced at the fainted demon for a moment.
‘Hmm. Let’s see, what does this guy have?’
I searched all of his clothes and pockets.
Then suddenly, a rank card came out of his pocket.
‘Hmm. ‘It’s a semi-executive level.’
A semi-executive who is stronger than an ordinary soldier, but much weaker than an executive.
In some ways, you can see him as someone with mediocre power.
But.
‘Hmm? ‘Why are associate executives wandering around places like this?’
No matter how mediocre it is, even semi-officials don’t walk around alone outside of security.
Moreover, this guy’s outfit is just before he invades the enemy camp.
‘What is it? ‘Something’s strange.’
That time when I felt uncomfortable and had doubts.
-Dad-dad-dah!
I heard the sound of demons running.
I turned my head towards that place.
Then, three demons were seen running, armed.
It looks like they are the subordinates of the demons here.
“Guys. “Knock those guys unconscious too.”
The companions who heard that nodded their heads.
And then, without a moment of hesitation, he knocked out the demons at once.
***
The completely unconscious demons were tied to a tree.
At that time.
“Ugh!”
The guy who was hit by Jane earlier slowly regains his consciousness.
I looked down at him and opened his mouth.
“Hmm. “Are you awake?”
“Where am I?”
“Where? “It’s hell.”

He looks up at me.
He widens his eyes when he sees me disguised with the same face as his.
“What is this…?”
“Well, we don’t have time, so let’s do it quickly. “Tell me about your password today.”
“What?”
“Why are you asking again? “What is the password today?”
“I see. From what I can see, it’s on the human side… Wow!”
When the guy tried to drag his words so hard, I hit him with the bamboo spear without hesitation.
The guy is shocked by the unexpected attack.
I said in an annoying tone.
“Don’t waste time with obvious comments, just speak quickly.”
“Kkkkk. It looks like you don’t have time. No matter how much you torture them, I have nothing to say.”
“Hmm. Yes, everyone said that.”
Until I got hit with a bamboo spear.
So, it only took less than 5 minutes for the password to come out of the guy’s mouth.
***
After obtaining the secret code, we moved straight toward the Demon King’s army’s headquarters.
At that time.
“Professor Elric. “Is it okay if I don’t get any other information?”
Eve asks a question in a puzzled voice.
Jane and Lynn look at me as if they agree with that question.
I took the lead and answered.
“Yes. “I don’t think there’s any need to force them to dig up other information.”
“Can I ask you why?”
“The same phenomenon has occurred every time I have made the Demon Lord spit out information. “I think you probably know what I’m talking about.”
At those words, the three people nodded.
I continued to explain.
“So, I don’t think there’s any need to forcefully dig into it. If you make a mistake, those demons could die and the information could be passed on to the demon king.”
As I said that, I was walking carefully.
‘Is it over there?’
Soon we arrived at our destination.
We quietly hid behind the rock without anyone saying who should go first.
Soon, I peeked out and took a look.
‘Hmm. There are two guards…’
For a main camp, the security is quite lax.
However, in a way, that is natural.
What kind of crazy people would think they would attack the devil’s base?
‘Unless you’re thinking about suicide, of course you don’t want to storm into the base.’
Anyway, it shouldn’t be like this.
Now that we have figured out the password, we need to get in there.
I turned my head to the three people.
The next moment, they nod their heads quietly.
– Jeopuk. Jeez.
We walked straight toward the front gate.
At the same time.
“Nail.”
The guard looks straight at us and speaks octopus.
I answered without any hesitation.
“Kika.”
They nod their heads at my answer.
And then, he quietly leaves the place.
“To suffer.”
As I entered, tapping the two guards on the shoulders, I was speechless at the sight that unfolded before my eyes.
He would be like that too.
‘What? Is something happening?’
Contrary to expectations, the demons are moving urgently.
We quietly entered the building where it seemed like no one was going in or out.
After confirming that there was no one around, I opened my mouth.
“Something is strange. Even though there is a war, the demons are too busy moving around.”
“That’s right. Young master. “It’s moving as if something is going to launch at any moment.”
“Hmm. That won’t work. First, let’s gather the information and meet here in an hour.”
At those words, everyone nodded and started moving.
***
I immediately caught a seemingly easy-looking demon.
Then, the demon who was moving around frowned.
Next moment.
“Loyalty!”
When I realized that I was a junior officer, I immediately saluted.
I quietly wrapped my shoulders around his neck.
I quietly asked a question.
“Well, let me ask you one question.”
“Yes, yes.”
“I was dispatched and am now back. Do you know why you are so busy?”
At my question, he widens his eyes as if he is suspicious.
Yes. There are some people who won’t believe you if you just say it.
Didn’t we prepare completely for something like this?
I slowly released my magic energy.
The guy who saw that lowered his head as if he realized that I wasn’t a spy.
“S-sorry.” “No. Well, you might not believe it. “It looks like everyone is sensitive to something.”
“Ah, yes. In fact, we are currently preparing for an all-out war.”
“What?”
“It is said that the Demon King will lead the Demons and sortie to the enemy territory, leaving behind only the minimum of the Demon King’s army.”
With those words, I realized how serious what was happening now was.
***
An hour has passed since then.
We gathered at the promised location mentioned earlier.
And I saw everyone’s expressions.
Everyone has a serious look on their faces.
It is clear that he got the same information as me.
“First, Jane, let’s talk about it first.” “Yes. I understand, master. According to the information I found, the Demon King’s army is waging an all-out war with us humans. And I received information that only the minimum amount of power will be left at the main base.”
No one was surprised to hear that.
It is clear that the rest of her party also received the same information as she did.
“Has anyone gotten any information other than this?”
“······.”
“······.”
The companions remain silent in response to my questions.
It seems like everyone except me got that information.
‘Hmm. According to the information I heard…’
I can say this with certainty.
If we continue like this, humanity will lose.
Every single person is stronger on the human side.
If you compare an executive and a yandere, of course the latter wins overwhelmingly.
However, the problem is numbers.
The Demon King’s army is not comprised of only demons.
Didn’t they even use monsters to attack?
No matter how overwhelming the force is, it also has some limitations.
‘I never dreamed it would be so different from the original.’
Still, in the previous episode, there has never been a time when all troops were sent so openly.
That’s why the Yanderes were able to chase me after I infiltrated the Demon King’s army.
Anyway.
“For now, prepare to go back.”
“”?!””
They open their eyes wide when they hear what I say.
I guess he didn’t expect me to tell him to go back.
Jane rebels against my orders.
“Master. “No matter what, it makes no sense to go back and leave the master alone.”
“That’s right. And even if you are Professor Elric, I don’t know what will happen if you are left here alone.”
“That’s right. Master.”
“Hmm. I think you’re misunderstanding something. “I will stay here, but that doesn’t mean I will fight with the demons here.”
“Yes?”
They tilt their heads at my question.
I told him the information I had heard and the strategy I had in mind.
Then, they make an expression of understanding.
“I’m sure it won’t be dangerous if you do that.”
“And in some ways, it would be possible to give the devil’s army a blow.”
“Right? So, you too, get ready. “The faster you do it, the better.”
With those words, we hurriedly moved to deal a blow to the devil’s army.
