When I came out, it was already night. The day seemed very long.

“If I had defended you, neither you nor I would have survived.”

It is true that Masha is strong, but it was difficult for her to survive under the siege of demons. It was difficult to run away because the area was not wide but narrow. Masha did not make poor judgments based on her own skills. When you deceive your opponent, you are acting clearly.

“You guys… … No, thanks to the warriors, we moved safely.”

“They are warriors who are faithful to my orders, so they won’t say anything out loud.”

Fortunately, I was caught between the monster guards brought by Masha and secretly returned to the queen’s bedroom. I’m probably supposed to have escaped on my own. It’s a bit of a funny story, but you’d think I’d appease one of the demons with my dick skills. In fact, I even proved it to the demons.

“Husband. Now shall we listen to the story?”

“How to solve the food problem without war?”

“That’s right.”

The former king of the Great Plateau is not obsessed with the stolen northern territory. The reason we are trying to get it back is because of the food issue. Moreover, since humans sometimes attack monsters, there are inevitable fights.

“We can conquer the North with the demons. But you can’t trust those bastards.”

“Is it because of that incident earlier?”

“I wasn’t really attracted to you from the beginning. I had no choice but to hold hands. But looking at what happened today, there is no doubt that I will do something I should not have done and even betray.”

That’s right. After all the monsters were used up, there was a high possibility that the demons would make more unreasonable demands or even betray them. Or you can make Masha the Scarecrow King.

“So, I want to hear the plan my husband has prepared.”

“Let’s ask the opposite question. If what conditions are met, can the war be defeated?”

“Husband. Isn’t this a very damaging order for us?”

“Damage?”

“For example, you originally decided to give me 10 pieces of meat, but you first said that I only need to give you 5 pieces.”

Oh, I see. If the minimum conditions are announced, Masha will inevitably suffer a loss. Since I am more impatient, it is right for Jessie to do it first. However, there is a reason to ask Masha to take the initiative.

“Masha. I’m sorry if I misunderstood you that way. But that wasn’t the intention. I’m trying to think of a solution to each of the things you said. In a way, it means that I will listen to all your requests as much as possible.”

Even though I am not a person, I do not know everything that Masha wants. First, you have to listen to all of Masha’s requests for the story to progress quickly.

“Ha. Normally, I would have kicked him in the butt, but I am holding back because he is my husband.”

“Thank you.”

“And it’s quite cowardly to do that while hugging tightly.”

“Sorry.”

“Rain, I said it was cowardly, but that doesn’t mean I don’t like it. Let’s stay like this a little longer.”

I was subtly holding Masha in my arms and persuading her. They fall only after sharing each other’s body heat for a moment. Masha finally began to state the minimum requirements for not going to war.

“Fertile land. Recognition of our warriors and my status. And stop the senseless hunting of our warriors. Um, is there anything else?”

First of all, I cleared out everything that immediately came to mind.

“Wanting fertile land also means wanting to solve the food shortage, right?”

“That’s right. There is a forest, but there is little food and there are not many animals.”

First, there was no land suitable for harvesting large quantities of fruits, grains, etc. Animals can also live well if there is plenty of grass to eat.

“Do orcs and monsters know how to farm?”

“Not as good as humans.”

“Ah. And didn’t warriors who didn’t live in the Great Plateau gather together because of the war? I think things will get better if we disperse.”

“Really?”

“And isn’t the land south of the Great Plateau good?”

This is the information I heard from Grace while looking at the map. It is said to be a place close to the Harb Kingdom, and although it is fertile, it has not been used for decades because it is awkwardly located between the monsters and the kingdom.

“Write there.”

“You know the risk is too high, right? Rather, humans may plunder, or our warriors may be in danger.”

“For that, I will acknowledge you.”

“Recognized? My husband?”

Masha looked in disbelief. For example, the territory around the border between the Gaia Empire and the Kingdom of Hav is fertile and safe. Just because an empire is stronger than a kingdom, it cannot arbitrarily invade the kingdom’s lands beyond the border. However, the land of the Great Plateau is different. It is not recognized as a country, but as a land of pioneering with many monsters.

“Is that possible?”

“Besides, it just worked out well. It would be better if the warriors of the Great Plateau helped.”

“Try to understand.”

“First, we have to persuade the Principality of Lancelot. Since we will not start a war, we are asking the principality not to attack you either.”

“Would that person understand?”

Although the Great Plateau was the main base, what was a good base was taken over by Kashid Nova. It would be difficult for him to suddenly grant the monsters’ demands.

“Show that you are that strong. And we plan to use this incident as an opportunity to make all forces join forces.”

“What?”

“I’ll tell you this first. Why did the demons help you? Have you ever thought about it?”

“I was curious, but I didn’t really ask.”

“The devil’s plan to devour this place. One of them is this situation.”

“The devil, the devil?”

I am confused when the devil suddenly appears. However, it seems that he finally understands why the demons tried to help the warriors of the Great Plateau. The Demon Tribe is not a charity, and there is no reason to go to such lengths to help Masha. The purpose may be to destroy the principality and weaken human power.

I explained one by one what the demons have been doing recently. After going into detail about this incident, starting with the two demons captured in the Gaia Empire, Masha decided that if she were to nitpick, not only the Great Plateau but the entire world would fall into disaster.

“Fuck. The problem is not that we did this to live well, but if what my husband said, both we and humans will be harmed by demons.”

Masha admitted that she almost got stabbed in the back by a demon. It seems like the explanation is insufficient, but Masha probably realized something in the end after meeting demons several times.

“Husband. So what should we do now?”

“I’m not saying that you should just lower your head for world peace.”

“Then?”

“After we drive out the demons this time, we will begin to hear about the demon invasion in earnest.”

This is still something that only a few people know about. However, so many demons appeared to destroy Lancelot’s principality. This alone cannot rule out the possibility of war, whether for an empire or a kingdom.

“By defeating the demons this time, we are letting them know that we are part of the same group fighting against the demons, and at the same time spreading the word that we will cooperate in future wars. On that condition, your rights will be recognized.”

The initial goal was to disperse the monsters first, putting the demons aside. But things are different now. If possible, it is better to make monsters fight against the Demon Lord’s army. This time, he succeeded and demonstrated his skills properly. At the same time, Masha will be an opportunity to let neighboring countries know that she is the queen of the Great Plateau. Even if it is known that they are the same human, trust may increase in the fact that a human of the same race is the leader of the monsters.

Anyway, in many ways, it was not an impossible method.

“Do you agree?”

“It’s easier said than done, right? Spreading the word is work, and who can prove that we caught the demon?”

“Ah, leave that to me.”

“To my husband?”

“I am secretly capable. As long as Masha agrees, I will proceed smoothly.”

Starting with the princess, she is trusted by the Grand Duke and his daughter. Moreover, the very strong card I have is the saint. Since the goddess decided to support my actions anyway, it wouldn’t matter if I sold her out with good intentions. Just ask Ray to spread the word about the oracle that the warriors of the Great Plateau and humans must cooperate. It’s okay, but Ray would do it.

“So you agreed?”

“Ha. It fits so tightly that I’m a little scared.”

“So you won’t do it?”

I will “. I love it so much I can’t not do it. I must succeed no matter what.”

As a result, Masha also joined the future Allied Forces. Masha’s personal strength is strong, but considering the monsters below her is very helpful.

“Husband. Then when are you going to catch the demons?”

“Of course it’s today.”

“No need to prepare?”

Considering the demons active in the tunnel and on the ground, the number was quite large. Moreover, there is one of the Four Heavenly Kings. Let’s think about the members who came to this operation. Charlotte is a warrior, so she is a little stronger than the Four Heavenly Kings, and other than a few strong people such as Kelly, not much can be expected.

“A day has passed, but the demons are still dispersed considering the remaining humans.”

Only a few were asked to come this way, and the rest were left behind to attract the attention of the demons.

“The first thing to do is to catch the demons in the tunnel. Ketin will come back later, and then the strong will be able to join forces to take him down.”

Or the warrior can handle it one-on-one.

“Hmm. Do you mind if I order our warriors?”

“Do you want me to keep sending you to the tunnel? Of course, we could push through, but it would take too much time. He must have prepared a plan to escape again.”

So, if you catch it, you have to choose a way to make sure it ends as quickly as possible.

“Now that I think about it, it will come soon.”

“Who?”

I can feel a strong magical power outside. It seems that the colleagues I left behind have finally found me.
