Konjiki no Moji Tsukai

[T Teckil?]

Eveam muttered unintentionally, looking at the figure riding on the shoulders of the Green Giant standing in front of her eyes.

[Hellossu. I was ssssomehow able to return.]

Eveam was frozen, she could not believe what was happening in front of her. In front of her blatant shock, Teckil looked onward while laughing and showing his pearly white teeth.

[Te-Teckil is that really you?]

[I am fine your Majesssty. You ssseem to be holding on well ne!?]

Those words, it proves this was no ghost.

[B-but why]

[Im really sssorry, but first we should take care of that perssson.]

Teckil stared at the person who was floating in the sky.

The huge wings extended from his back, by looking at him one would know that he belonged to the [Demon Evila].

He had brown skin and a small horn protruding from his forehead. Along with his sharp ears, any of these characteristics could be judged to belong to the [Demon Evila].

But the strangest characteristic was its eyes. Which had no pupils, no light seemed to be in them.

Truly inhuman.

Looking below him in disdain, the man suddenly spread his arms towards Eveam.

A mass of crimson flames produced, whos target was all too obvious.

[He is about to throw the spell!]

Marione screamed as soon as he noticed the mans behavior.

Everyone started to prepare to receive the attack.

[Itssss fine yo.]

[ Teckil?]

When Teckil spoke such strange words, not only Eveam, but also the soldiers who heard them went [Eh?].

Turning towards Eveam, Teckil smiled.

[Just becaussse I am here doesss not mean that I came back alone. I came back with an assistant.]

[Aa-assistant?]

The moment Eveam replied, a huge figure came falling from the sky towards the [Demon Evila].

Noticing something odd, the [Devil Evila] focused on the falling figure.

With utmost care, the devil sent the crimson flames towards this new threat.

Surprisingly, when it met with the shadow, the flames which held enormous destructive power scattered and vanished.

As if confirming the targets position, the shadow started to plunge directly toward the [Devil Evila]. Leaving no chance for it to escape.

The figure hit its target in the chest, forcing the [Devil Evila] to plummet along with the figure, creating a small crater in the ground.

Everyones eyes focused to the now clear details of the man who fell from the sky.

[ Ju-Judom!?]

With Eveams shout, everyone was finally able to know who the person was.

[Yo, its been a while Maou-chan.]

He was the Guild Master of [Victorias]. He is Judom Lankers, he was the man who had helped the country through its tough time as a substitute for King Victorias a while ago.

[Surround the Enemy!!]

Aquinas roars from his spot.

The soldiers immediately moved after receiving their instructions. In merely seconds Judom was surrounded.

With Judoms tremendous blow attacking the devils chest, it became disfigured and was clearly caved in. It seemed even tough for the creature to stand.

Strangely enough, his deadpan expression remained the same.

Could it be that it could not even feel the pain?

Aquinas approached the devil warily, and when he looked down at the devil he narrowed his eyes slightly.

Slowly, Aquinas pulls out his blade, and then

*Bushin*

His neck was beheaded.

If it was normal, then blood should have splashed on a huge scale.

However, nothing squirted from the cut on his neck.

Rather, the body of the man gradually collapsed into sand.

[. As expected.]

Aquinas as if understanding the situation, appeared thoughtful but those surrounding him were perplexed.

Paying no heed to others, Aquinas stowed his sword once more and turned towards Judom.

[It's been a while Judom, yo.]

[Ah, last time was at the meeting.]

They exchanged eye contact.

In the meantime, there were signs of the person who was previously in the sky but it was something else entirely.

It was a huge bird.

Most of the people around them were surprised but none of them panicked.

It seemed as if they knew who the brid belonged to.

The bird was produced through magic by the [Demon Evila] Teckil.

[The two of you, how terrible of you to leave me behind!]

And moreover, everyone was looking perplexedly at the little girl who was on the back of that bird.

[Sssory about that, but I figured that Princesss Fara would be much sssafer on the bird than with usss.]

[I was extremely surprised as soon as the both of you jumped from this child.]

[Sorry about that Fara, you can scold us later. Right now, I hope you can understand the situation you can right]

Judom continued to stare at Aquinas.

[Thats right. For now, let's concentrate on the [Devil Evila], we can slowly speak about this later.]

Aquinas also said so and returned to his original expression after taking a glance behind the bird.

[Apparently, the attack just a while ago seemed to only be a greeting. The real thing is still coming.

Your majesty, please contact the Beast King, we need to hold a meeting.]

[A, aa, thats right. I understand.]

Eveam also breathed out and thought that it was useless to have an expression which showed her being upset and immediately steeled her face.

[Everyone! The Predecessor Demon Lord being Evil has been confirmed! The war shall formally begin! We shall not bow down to such a person!]

Slowly, the soldiers morale rose due to the cry of Eveam.

[However, the attack has stopped for now. But this does not mean that it wont happen again! I want you to be wary of your surroundings! If you find something suspicious immediately report it!]

The soldiers all replied with a resounding [Yes!] unitedly and headed back.

Eveam turned her gaze towards Teckil.

[I have something to say before you tell me about the past events.]

[What might it be?]

[Good job, you have returned safely, and thank you.]

[Ehh; please dont sssay ssuch a thing to me your majesty. It feels weirdly ticklish.

I will tell you all about the reasssson why the two of them are here and what I had been doing for ssso long.

But, there is something I must say first.]

The moment Teckil got the shoulder of the Green Giant, the giant crumbled and turned into liquid before getting absorbed by the earth.

The bird quickly followed suit.

[Teckil scissor has returned, your majesty.]

[Umu, we were waiting.]

Eveam cheeks relaxed joyfully.

Hiiro kept silent thought the whole scene from when Avoros declared war right until the end of battle.

Since a helper had appeared amid battle.

There were two people who looked familiar to him.

One was Judom Lankers.

Hiiro had met him once during the meeting.

Although it was only two or three words, he had a strong impression of the huge man.

The other was Teckil Scissor.

He was acquainted with him.

And also travelled with him for a while.

During that time, there were two other people: Arnold and Muir.

But they did not know that Teckil was one of the [Demon Evila]. And did not even know his real name.

At that time, Teckil had changed his identity to that of a beast man.

But it was still seen through by Hiiros word magic [Peep].

Why he had changed his identity and why he was lying was unknown, but Hiiro was surprised when he learned of his identity.

Of course, Teckil was quite confident in his disguise, but even he was surprised when he heard the words of Hiiro and began doubting his disguise ability. He asked Hiiro to keep silent about his identity.

Teckil had no intention of doing something to Hiiro when he heard bout it. Although he could not find out Teckils purpose, he was still allowed to go as he had promised that he would not bring harm to anyone.

Certainly, as Teckil said, there was no harm because of his existence at that time. Although the two had parted nicely, he had not seen him since then. Surprised to see him so suddenly, and in such a place, Hiiro began wondering what Teckil might be doing.

Hiiro knew that Teckil belonged to when he saw his status, but he was wondering why

he was not able to find his existence even though he had been in [Demon Country] for so

long.

At the time, Hiiro had thought that Teckil might had simply died, but he felt that he was alive.

Then there was the other one, Fara who was about the same height as that of Muir.

Hiiro did not know who she was yet, but he wondered what Judom and Fara had come here for.

At that time, Judom fleetingly glanced at Hiiro and suddenly smiled. As if he was saying: [See ya later.]

Despite this heartwarming gesture, Hiiro received a more mysterious feeling.

Soon after, Teckil came near Hiiro.

[Its been a while Hiiro-kun.]

[It really has been, Pseudonym-bastard]

[Ugh I really wissssh that you ssstop mentioning that time. You really cant exssspect me to give away my real name right..?]

I remembered that he had asked me to call him Tenii at that time.

Of course, Hiiro knew his real name but just spoke with sarcasm laced in his words since he ffelt nostalgic about those times with the pseudonym-bastard and couldnt help but say it out loud.

[Actually nee, Hiiro-kun I have a ssstory that I wisssh to tell you about.]

[.To me?]

[Thatsss right. I think that the majesssty will ssson have a meeting and I hope that you can attend it in the near future.]

Frankly Hiiro felt that it was troublesome.

However, now Hiiro himself had a grudge with he might as well join and listen in on the potentially valuable information.

[All right.]

[Seriously! Ahaha, thatsss good!]

As usual, Teckil laughed wryly with friendly humor while Hiiro just shrugged his shoulders.

Hiiro looked at the sun hanging in the sky

(It looks like things will get busier in the future)

Originally Hiiro did not want to participate in the war.

But who was currently engaging the war in particular had a connection with Noah Black.

(I will make sure that you regret having picked a fight with me.)

With a strong determination in mid, Hiiro started to walk behind Teckil.
