“···Since that’s the case, I don’t believe there will be any inconvenience.”

“Ah yes.”

“From now on, we will be living as neighbors, so if you have any inconveniences, please tell us! We will help you as much as we can.”

“Are you saying you want to live in this forest?”

“Well, please just wait until you go to the demon world. No matter what, it’s not good to be homeless.”

Asmodeus’ story was simple.

No intention to fight, no motivation to fight, wife at home.

They don’t want to fight us bloody because of three things.

“···Now that I think about it, one of your colleagues died. Are you okay?”

“Hmm? Who is it? ···Tell me.”

“What was your name? Amdusias?”

“Did you kill that guy? Haha, that’s great! I thought you’d get seriously hurt someday if you went on a rampage like that!”

“···I guess we didn’t get along well?”

“It can’t be good! I have no idea how to become friends with a crazy colt who dares to covet other people’s things.”

Is that so…?

I felt a little sad to see him so happy when he heard the news that his ally had died.

Even in the modern military, fragging towards friendly forces occurs occasionally.

The most common cause is discord. It’s a human relationship.

Even if you cross the world, the fact that human relationships are difficult does not change.

“Ah, even if I killed the other Four Heavenly Kings, I have no intention of attacking you, so don’t worry.”

“···Really? I don’t think so.”

“Hmm. How should I say this?”

When I noticed, my colleagues were already wary of Asmodeus, and only then did they understand what I was talking about.

I killed your colleague!

You said that out loud.

…I didn’t really intend to do that. A cold sweat rolled down my face at the thought that I had made a mistake.

“Because we are called the Four Heavenly Kings, we are often misunderstood that we are close to each other.”

“The facts are different?”

“That’s right. The status of the Four Heavenly Kings is actually just the name of the position they had during the time of the first Demon King, and it would be correct to see them as the four strongest people in name only now.”

“I hear you can join the Four Heavenly Kings without having to join the Demon King Army.”

“In principle, yes.”

Then what?

Demon King’s Four Heavenly Kings = Demon King’s Army (not), Four Heavenly Kings (in name only) are possible…?

“Well, it’s unfortunate, but it’s a basic story. It’s impossible unless we do something about the Demon King’s Throne.”

“Throne…”

The devil’s throne.

An artifact that enables the rule of demons.

I heard that it is an item that can force the current strongest demon to kneel, no matter how weak it is.

“Is there any way to break it?”

“hmm?”

“No, isn’t that true? If the throne was responsible for the birth of the Demon King and forced obedience, it wouldn’t be surprising if it was destroyed.”

“···Well? I’ve never thought about it.”

“Why?”

“Isn’t that obvious? In order to destroy the throne, you must always kill the demon lord around you. However, you cannot defy the demon lord because of the throne.”

oh.

That’s right, you’re stuck in what’s called the so-called fast and slow.

The formula of breaking the throne = defeating the devil is established, but the devil cannot defy the devil.

Of course, the Demon King won’t let him die, and the throne will be fine.

…Huh, so what if I just destroy the Demon King while he’s dead?

“When the Demon King is dead and the throne is empty, isn’t it okay to destroy it?”

“···I tried it before.”

“It was a failure?”

“Of course. I don’t know who made it, but I heard that there was something in the throne that wasn’t magic. I heard that’s why it doesn’t break.”

There is no magical power in the throne?

Yuna, who heard that story, refuted.

“That’s impossible! Artifacts are objects created through magical power. To use that level of power, a large amount of magical energy is clearly required…!”

“It’s not that there is no magical power. There’s some other power mixed in there.”

“All different powers…?”

“Yes. Let me give you an example. Isn’t there divine power? Another power that can create artifacts.”

“It’s not impossible, but it doesn’t make sense. There’s no reason the gods would make it.”

“That’s right. That’s why we are also an unknown power. It felt a little different from the divine power in the first place.”

Umm.

No matter how I think about it, I think it’s right to destroy that throne.

“The story has diverged. At least I have no intention of being hostile towards you, so rest assured. If I attack you, it would be best to think of yourself as being controlled by the Demon Lord.”

“If that happens, are you asking me to save you?”

“Well? But if that happens, it would be better if the Demon Lord falls before I die.”

Asmodeus said and smiled.

There is no need to say it.

I looked next to Asmodeus.

The half-melted captain was supported by one of her arms, making an expression that he could not show to others.

···Wow.

You look really happy. Is it that good?

“Hmm? Are you interested? If so, have a nice day.”

“Don’t flirt with your sister.”

“Ah, that’s too bad. If you want, just tell me. Heaven… no, we are demons, so let me show you hell.”

“That’s not happening!”

what’s the matter.

It looks good, and I could give it a try at least once…

I became saddened by the conservative views of my co-workers.

“I have a question.”

“What is it? Let me tell you.”

“Have you ever had a relationship with a man?”

“···? There isn’t any.”

“Thank you.”

My curiosity was resolved.

These eyes I gave a tentative name to.

According to the virgin reader, Asmodeus is a non-virgin.

This virgin reading, looks pretty conservative.

Even if you have sex with a woman, the possibility of being judged as a non-virgin has greatly increased.

···In other words, even if I have a relationship with a woman, my virginity will be broken.

“Are there two Four Heavenly Kings that you haven’t met?”

“I see.”

“If those two just talk well, they won’t have to fight. Try your best. As for the Demon King… I don’t know. If he’s confident that he won’t die, he won’t have any intention of fighting. Maybe.”

“Okay, thanks for the information. Do you have any of theirs?”

“···Information? I don’t really have anything like that. Ah, I think I have a rough idea of their purpose.”

“If that’s okay, please tell me.”

“Okay. Lilith, the Four Heavenly Kings. The most senior of the Four Heavenly Kings. It is said that she has been around since the beginning, so she is probably the strongest in the Demon World. I heard that she came to find the body of the former Four Heavenly Kings, Ishtar.”

“Ishtar?”

“Hmm. Now that I think about it, you guys killed him. Cheer up?”

What do we do.

My previous actions became karma and were about to come back to me.

However, there was no point in thinking about it right now, so I pressed for information about the other Four Heavenly Kings.

“That’s okay, what about the other Four Heavenly Kings?”

“The name is Belphegor. She is a Sloth Demon. She is quite sincere towards the Sloth Demon, so if you show her a great favor, you will not have to fight.”

“favor?”

“Like a sloth demon, their digestive system is also lazy. They say they suffer from constipation every day. They say it has been going on for hundreds of years.”

Heeek…

I got goosebumps.

Constipation for hundreds of years.

In the sense that it can withstand that, should it really be called the Four Heavenly Kings?

Or should we be sad and say it is tragic?

I didn’t know what to say.

“Belphegor looks similar to a human, so it may be hard to find him. His magic power is always subdued, so he looks weak, so I guess it’s just a matter of imagination.”

Oh, impressionism.

very good.

Everyone listened and focused on Asmodeus’ words.

“Purple hair, turquoise eyes. He’s a bit short. He speaks quite politely. From the top, 85, 68, 94…”

Everyone got sick of it in an instant.

What is it, you bitch?

It seems he noticed our reaction. She smiled sheepishly.

“Haha. It looked like a pretty tasty body, so it caught my eye a little. But that wasn’t my style, so I quit right away. It would have been nice if it wasn’t for the constipation.”

“Ugh, could you please stop coming closer…?”

“Hmm, you look pretty good too. Where, from above….”

“Wow?!”

By the way, purple hair and turquoise eyes?

I think I saw it a few days ago.

“···Do you usually bend your back slightly?”

“Oh, you know me well? He says his stomach hurts every day and he bends over a little when he moves. Have you ever seen that?”

“maybe.”

Yes, the day Asmodeus appeared.

There was one woman who was looking for a bathroom.

At that time, something big happened, so I responded roughly and went out…

For some reason, the impressions and clothing were very similar.

“Then you’d better be careful.”

“···Why? Are you strong?”

“She is not strong in nature. There is no way a person who suffers from constipation every day can be strong.”

Then there is no need to be more careful.

As I was thinking that, Asmodeus spoke softly.

“It’s a problem because, like the devil of sloth, it weakens everyone except her.”

“Making it weak…?”

“Hmm. It would be easy for an ordinary human to make it look like a fawn right after birth.”

As soon as those words were finished, the sound of something collapsing was heard inside the city.

“I was going to say the same thing applies to inorganic substances, but why don’t you go? I guess I wasn’t mistaken.”

“Tch, if you come to fight, I won’t let you go!”

“Yeah, yeah. I won’t go near it, so don’t worry.”

Asmodeus sighed as he watched us quickly return to the city to resolve the situation.

“Being the devil of sloth, it would be good if he showed a little more flexibility. He has a tiring personality. He makes things happen.”
