– What is the meaning of this!? (Raviola)

 

The Searat members and I were greeted by a tense mood filling the headquarters.

 

Raviola is yelling with a report in her hand while Rizerotta, Erieet and Ergeet hang their heads with their shoulders slumped.

 

Septe is silently watching.

 

– Good… morning?

 

– Takaya, this is sudden, but we’re leaving.
Your friends should come too.
(Raviola)

 

– I’m sorry, Takaya.
(Rizerotta)

 

– What’s going on?

– Well~ Remember that demon we killed? (Ergeet)

 

– The fallen angel?

 

– Yes.
Apparently, the gate to the demon world wasn’t closed properly.

 

How come? I watched the sisters close it.
They didn’t cut corners or anything.

 

Did the demons use teleportation magic instead of going through the gate?

 

But only someone savvy in dark magic would be able to do that.
Someone like Mumuruu using her spear.

 

– The deceased demons have come back to life, and it appears there have been civil casualties.
We need to move.
Now.

 

The letter describes a black dragon eating livestock as well as demons killing any villagers who opposed them.
It’s hard to imagine this is a joke.

 

The signature was barely readable, probably since whoever wrote it was in a hurry.

 

“A…Ou I…Zo”, or something like that.

– We will think about taking responsibility for this later.
We must hurry before the situation gets worse.

 

– … (E/E)

 

Both Ergeet and Erieet were staring at the floor, entirely convinced that they had made no mistake.

 

I’m sorry.
You’ll have to bear with it for a bit longer.

– What… (Septe)

 

The sisters used their teleportation magic to take us to the cave.

 

But from where we were standing we could see the villagers living their life as if nothing had happened.

 

No traces of the destruction described in the letter.

No traces of the demons.

 

– Where is… Rizerotta, what is going on? (Raviola)

 

– Sorry, Raviola-sama.
I instructed Rizerotta-san and the sisters to take refuge in the cave.

 

Meirir and the others were also at the cave.
By my side were Feria and Rudra.

 

– Without asking for the princess’ permission!? Know your place, you-

 

– Wow, easy there.
One more step and your head might disjoint from your body.
(Mumuruu)

 

Septe stopped in her tracks as she was about to attack me.

 

The tip of Mumuruu’s spear was piercing her neck.

 

– Those horns and wings… A Succubus!?

– My pleasure.
I’m Mumuruu.
I used to be the Shimmering Succubus Leader, but now I work for Takaya.
Thank you for taking care of him!

 

– You… What!? TAKAYA!?

 

– Actually, I’m also one of the Four Fiendish Guardians.

 

“The Demonic Creator”.
A title that Kouya gave me.
And a status that was very useful for this mission.

 

– I didn’t mean to betray your trust, but rather than trying to convince you, I thought it would be better if you saw it for yourself.
Feria, Rudra.

 

– On it.
(Rudra)

 

– I’m sorry, Raviola-sama.
This is for the better good of the Royal Capital.
(Feria)

 

The Searat executives restrained both of Raviola’s arms.
She’s already immobilized by Mumuruu’s magic, but considering she was almost able to fend off Zezekiel’s magic, I’d rather be safe than sorry.

 

– To think that you were working with the demons… What a f̲u̲c̲k̲i̲n̲g coward.
Release the princess!

 

– I think you should be the one to release her, Septe-san.
Or should I call you Seventh?
