Beatrice Constantino, a loyal knight serving the demons, was preparing for camping with King John. Crouching above her head was the wolf girl Aru.

Goblin Shaman, Meta, was summoning familiars and airlifting food to the area. It was too easy for a meta that can operate a large army.

Uriel, the winged angel, was flying in the sky and looking around. This is to find out if someone unusual is approaching from somewhere. Their party was classified as a strong person in the Demon Forest, but even so, the Demon Forest is a place where one must not let down their guard.

“Keng.”

The two wolf ears on Aru’s head perked up. What did you hear? Aru narrowed his eyes for a moment and then stuck his nose forward.

“Sniff-.”

Aru smelled the scent carried by the wind. Beatrice, who was gathering firewood to start the fire, heard the sound and asked.

“Aru, why are you doing that?”

“Kkeungkeung, keungkeongkeong. It’s coming.”

“It’s coming, what do you mean it’s coming?”

With the answer, Aru’s blue eyes shone sharply.

“Seven Dragons. And demon beasts. ”

“… The Seven Dragons are coming?”

“Keng, I’m running wild. The goal is the young demons and us.”

“Goal, Ramen?”

“Trying to kill us. Everyone formed an alliance.”

Stand tall.

Beatrice’s movement of moving firewood stopped. Nioh, who was eavesdropping nearby, also stopped.

“Is that solid information?”

“Kungkeong, I can hear everything. I have bright ears. So I usually keep my ears closed, but when an unfamiliar wind blows, I open my ears. ”

“… If so, that’s okay. Nioh, let’s report this to our lord first.”

“He said he was going to run errands for the demons. But I can’t see it yet.”

“You told me never to follow you when you’re running errands, but… Now this is not an ordinary situation. The Seven Dragons lead the monsters. The situation is like a war.”

Beatrice did not expect the situation to turn out this way. Because under the orders of Lord Oskar, we have slaughtered every monster in the Demon Forest on sight.

Since the demonic beasts were also intelligent, it was inevitable that they would become a community against them.

But I didn’t know that the Seven Dragons would participate in it. Beatrice calmly stroked the scabbard.

Seven dragons.

Three dragons chosen by the Dragon King Endros. In the Demon Forest, they are the highest predators, ranked just below the Five Kings, and it is said that they only observe because order will be destroyed if they jump into the law of the fittest.

For example, they are like the guardian gods of the forest. Of course, they also have the power to match their great name. In particular, among the seven dragons, the four-headed dragon Níðhöggr is called the right arm of the Dragon King and is even called one of the strongest dragons.

‘That seven dragons are targeting us…’ My lord would have predicted this situation. You should seek his opinion first.’

When leader Oscar is absent, the highest-ranking person in the group is Beatrice. That was decided because she had joined the group first.

In fact, Langwang Aru was in the group earlier, but she had already been given the status of ‘pet’ by Oscar. Therefore, the position of unit commander naturally belonged to Beatrice.

As the group leader, Beatrice rested her chin on the back of her hand and was deep in thought. No matter how strong they are, the Seven Dragons are an opponent they cannot take lightly. It was difficult to carry out the annihilation without any preparation as usual.

“Mr. Yohan! Come here!”

At that time, Oscar came from afar waving his hand. Beatrice turned her head with a bright smile on her face. Her tightly tied brown hair was flowing.

“Master, you have come.”

Sir “? Wait. I don’t have much time right now. I told you to come over to work with Mr. Yohan!”

“Asmodians? What’s going on?”

Oscar gently pushed Beatrice away and quickly found Nioh. As a result, Beatrice missed the right time to speak.

“Mr. Yohan, please follow me. I’ll explain as I go, so don’t ask why.”

“Lord, lord! Well, I have something to tell you… !”

“Uh, Sir Beatrice. Please wait a moment. It’s urgent now. Can’t I tell you tomorrow?”

Oscar didn’t even give Beatrice a chance to speak, but grabbed Nioh’s wrist and disappeared into the grass. Beatrice tried to talk to him somehow, but Oscar cut her off like a knife.

Oscar had no choice but to speed up his pace. Before Merlin Gregory summons the warrior party, he must first take Nioh and return to the spot. Beatrice, who did not know this fact, was just frustrated, but with the etiquette between a lord and a knight engraved in her bones, she could not stop Oscar from talking.

“Master! It would be nice if you could just talk to me for a little while… !”

“Hey, I didn’t look at it like that, but you’re really lame.”

“Gu, it’s a lousy one… ? Poetry, do you mean God?”

“Then what is it if it’s not lame to keep holding on to it? I’m not a guy who catches a broken up woman!”

“… !”

Moreover, Beatrice, who was so dazed after hearing the word ‘crap’ from Oscar, was unable to even mention the Seven Dragons’ incident.

“Demon, demon? Where are we going now?”

“Run now! I’ll explain as I go! And Sir Beatrice! Make sure no one, including others, follows you! Absolutely!”

Oscar disappeared into the forest in an instant. Beatrice stared blankly at the back of the ball, then realized that she had missed the opportunity to speak and reprimanded herself.

‘What a fool… ! There can be nothing more important than the work of the Seven Dragons, so why did you act so complacent! No, follow your lord now… !’

Pinch-.

“KungKong.”

The moment when Beatrice prepares to run. Aru, who was sitting on her head, pulled Beatrice’s cheek. Her elastic skin stretched out.

“Aru… What are you doing? You just saw the situation. I have no time to fool around with you.”

“Kengkeong, don’t go. You must not disturb me.”

“What are you talking about? By telling me not to go, are you telling me to ignore the seven dragons’ actions?”

“Young demon, try to do something important. You must not disturb me.”

“… .”

Aru’s expression was full of seriousness. Beatrice vaguely sensed that she was not doing this simply for fun.

“Aru, what does that mean? Is it important?”

Suddenly, the last image of Oscar appeared in Beatrice’s mind, urging her to ‘never follow me’. When I heard it, I was so caught up in the thought of conveying the story of the Seven Dragons that I didn’t even pay attention to it.

“Kungkeong. A young demon took a big human. We must not follow.”

“Uhm, so what should I do?”

“You must not cause any disturbance. Not just us, but others too. Kkkk.”

“As for other things… ? Ah.”

Aru wordlessly shifted his gaze to the sky. A sigh flowed from Beatrice’s red lips.

“I don’t know what my lord is planning, but I guess I can block the things that will stand in my way.”

“Probably, keng.”

“Maybe?”

“I don’t know what the young demon is trying to do. Strangely, only a little sound can be heard from the young demon. But you can’t interfere. That’s for sure.”

“Aru, even if you open your ears, you cannot hear your master’s voice?”

“Keng, it’s hard to hear things that are said from far away. Young demons have been like that since long ago.”

Beatrice tilted her head at Aru’s meaningful words. It was a statement that left many questions.

‘but… Has there been a time or two when you have doubts about your master? ‘They say he’s a person full of questions about everything.’

But when she remembered that the question was surrounding Oscar, Beatrice felt strangely convinced. That’s what Oscar was to her. For others, it wasn’t much different.

“So now we have to deal with the Seven Dragons on our own? To prevent them from interfering with the lord’s movements?”

“Keng, probably yes. That’s the way to help the young demon.”

“However, my lord did not give such an order.”

“Young demons probably don’t know. ”

“… .”

“A young demon, trying to do something with a big human and a group of humans. Also, we don’t want them to notice us. Even monsters like the Seven Dragons.”

“Did you just say it was a group of humans? Who else entered the forest?”

“Keng, but we must not encounter them. I hope the young demons do that.”

“In that case, we don’t have to worry about a bunch of strangers. Anyway, to summarize, my lord is planning something with Nioh. Meanwhile, the Seven Dragons are trying to carry out an unscheduled attack… I’m hearing that this may cause trouble to my lord. I finally understand.”

“Kkkk!”

Jump!

Aru lightly jumped and came down to the ground, stepping on Beatrice’s hair. Aru, who stepped onto the ground, lifted his head towards the sky and let out a wolf sound.

“Awww-!”

Aru’s howling is used for many purposes. One of them is to summon Uriel, who is flying in the sky. Not long after, Uriel, with his pure white wings folded, proudly came down to the land where Aru was.

fluttering-.

The white cloth wrapped around Uriel’s pure white body fluttered softly. The rich blond hair touched the ground, but the coarse dirt did not dare to stain the angel’s body. Even if it’s just a piece of hair.

“What happened? King of Lang, Beatrice.”

“Kkkk! Kkkk!”

“If you speak the language of wolves, how will you understand? I’m in a situation where I don’t even have the archangel’s translation power.”

“Kkkk!”

While Uriel, who had come down in response to the call, asked Aru the reason, Beatrice sent her familiars into the forest and brought back Meta, who was gathering food. After recovering all the familiars that had been released.

“Beatrice? What’s going on?”

“Just come and see. We’ll talk about it when everyone gets together.”

“Kkkk! I’m here, I’m here!”

“Where have the leaders and kings of men gone? I have something important to say to them. What I saw earlier while flying in the sky was a group of humans in the demon forest… .”

“Wait a minute. I have something to tell you first.”

Beatrice, Aru, Uriel, and Meta stand facing each other. Beatrice took the initiative by interrupting Uriel. The angel was not upset because Uriel knew that someone as upright as Beatrice would not act like that for vain reasons.

“The Seven Dragons are coming here now, leading an army of monsters. It appears that the goal is to kill us for destroying the ecosystem.”

“What… ! Is that really true?”

“Kkkk! I heard it all!”

“The familiars who had gone far away used to say that the ground was shaking. East, west, south… They say the ground shakes slightly in these three directions.”

When Uriel questioned the words that came out of Beatrice’s mouth, Aru and Meta gave further testimony. Beatrice, who even confirmed Meta’s testimony, was confident that Aru’s words were true.

“Then shouldn’t you tell the leader right away? Where is the king of humans at this critical time when the Seven Dragons are coming?”

“Calm down, Uriel. Lord and King Nio are not here. Aru said it won’t be there for a while.”

“… What?”

“You can’t find it. You can’t chase after me. Looks like the young demon has some work to do. With a big human.”

“You heard it, right? I also just heard something from my lord. He told me to ‘never’ follow him. All of us.”

“Yes? Oh, is Oscar gone? ?”

“It may be so, it may not be. But the important thing in this situation is that we do our jobs. In the end, isn’t the point of the current situation that three ‘cheeky lizards’ that could cause harm to the lord are flocking here?”

Beatrice’s calm recitation. Uriel and Meta were quite shocked when they heard that. This is because the dragon, the ultimate being, was described as a ‘cheeky lizard.’

On the other hand, Aru burst into laughter. Aru, who had lived for a whopping four hundred years and had acquired all of the power of King Lang, had nothing to fear.

“Uriel, Aru, Meta. Before they attack us, let’s attack first. Let us make the fearless enemies who dare to attack our master pay a harsh price in blood.”

Clap-.

The great sword tied to Beatrice’s back revealed its sword body to the world.

*****

Holding on to Nioh’s thick wrist, I run with all my might. Fortunately, there was no one in sight at the place where I was starting to see.

“Demon! Where are you going! Please at least say something!”

Nioh, who had been brought to me unexpectedly, demanded an explanation from me. Since I couldn’t see Merlin or the warrior party anyway, I slowly slowed down and tried to explain the situation to him.

“Everyone! Mr. Suoka is over there!”

If I hadn’t heard Merlin’s shout at that moment, I would have explained the situation to King Nio. He would have told me how to act and act.

When I moved my gaze to where I heard the sound, I saw a boy with green hair sticking out from under a wizard’s hat, pointing his finger at us. Several humans were gathered behind the boy.

“Asmodians? There are humans!”

“Mr. Yohan! From now on, I am no longer a demon! It’s Suoka! So please call me Suoka!”

Did they hear Nioh’s words just now? That doesn’t seem to be the case as I see Merlin running towards me waving like a puppy. Phew, I almost got screwed before I even started work.

“Suoka?”

“Yes! Suokayo! And now be quiet!”

“Got it. Suoka, Suoka, Suoka… .”

Damn it, I haven’t told Nioh the code of conduct yet. I have to improvise and resolve the situation. Fortunately, it is not difficult for me.

Before I knew it, Merlin and the group of humans were right in front of us. They’re probably a warrior party. I raised my arm and waved. As if Merlin had explained me well, the humans were all smiling at me.

“Merlin! Welcome! I’ve been waiting for you!”

“Yes! These people here are the warrior party! however… Um, who is that… ?”

Merlin’s gaze lands on the Nioh next to me. The gaze is very fluctuating. Anyone would be surprised to see a large man standing there with such a bold appearance, but from the perspective of civilized people, he appears to be nothing more than a barbarian.

However, I did not choose the occupation of hunter for no reason when I introduced myself. I’ve thought about this much. Nioh looks more like a ‘veteran hunter’ than anyone else.

“This is my colleague! You have lived with me as a hunter in the Demon Forest for decades! It will be of great help in this ‘hunt’ as well! Right, Johan?”

As he spoke, he tapped Nioh’s side. Nioh hesitated for a moment.

Please, you have this much sense. Just accept it. I prayed desperately in my heart.

“That’s right! I am John, the hunter of the Demon Forest!”

oh! It was great! After all, the human king is amazing! This is the intelligence of the supreme being of all things!

It was a big hurdle because I couldn’t tell King Nio in advance, but fortunately I got over it.

“By the way, Suoka? There is something I want to ask.”

You even call me Suoka by name? I said it once, but do you remember it exactly? Excellent! At this level, I can give Nioh the position of my first assistant from now on! Kick a poopy dog like Aru’s butt!

Ask anything! It feels good, and I will answer kindly!

“What are you curious about?”

“Are you going to kill them too, like last time?”

“… … Huh?”

Holy shit.

Even if you ask, why are you asking that?
