“Who did Ryla Khan go under?”
“This is Aslan. Lord.”
Annoyance lingered in the voice of Reckius, the Archdemon and one of Babylon.
“It was because of your advice that Rylakan didn’t interfere when he was trying to create the Knights of the Vengeful Spirit. Didn’t he say that the Knights would destroy the continent on his own?”
“I’m sorry. If Aslan hadn’t intervened, Rylakan could have turned the whole continent upside down.”
Quaang-!
Lekius slammed the throne he was sitting on and shouted.
“That’s why I didn’t take the Eternal Fire. But are you using Aslan as an excuse?”
“I didn’t know that Aslan would destroy the Ghost Knights all at once. My mistake in underestimating him.”
Even though he was about to get angry at Terkana once more, Rekius held back because he didn’t know that Aslan would wipe out the Knights of the Vengeful Spirit in one fell swoop.
He, too, wondered how Aslan had done such an eccentricity.
“But the fire of eternity does not go out and remains, does it not? If you bring it, you will be able to create the immortal army that Reckius wants.”
“Do you know where the eternal fire is?”
“Yes. It is said that Aslan froze the rampant eternal fire and then got drunk.”
“…Freeze the runaway fire of eternity? That makes no sense.”
“Likeus. Opponent is Aslan. If you underestimated him even a little, you might get stabbed in the back. Just like this time. He always exceeds expectations.”
“Then, did Aslan really stop the runaway fire of eternity?”
“Yes.”
A smile crept across Reckius’ lips.
“He’s a very funny guy.”
Aslan’s name was often heard even in Hell, and he was so famous.
That’s why Lekius, who had no interest in the outside world, also wanted to see a human named Aslan.
“I made up my mind.”
“······Yes?”
“I must go out myself.”
“Are you talking about Lekius-sama yourself?”
“Okay. Has there ever been a demon that has invaded the continent and reaped success? It was as embarrassing as one. Now it’s time to teach us the fear of the Techina tribe.”
Then, Lekius gave orders to Tercana.
“Open the portal, Tercana. I will personally meet Aslan.”
The black magic orb floating on his palm made a sullen cry.
* * *
“Aslan-sama~!”
“Our hero has arrived!!”
“Long live Aslan!!”
The people of Shana Kingdom welcomed me by spraying pollen on me as soon as I arrived at the castle.
Now that they came into my dominion, they were now my people.
Originally, if you invade another kingdom and occupy it, the resistance of the people is very severe.
So, the higher the difficulty, the more often rebellion occurs, and the management of public sentiment is quite difficult. But so far none of the places I have occupied have been revolted.
Rather, public sentiment reached its peak, and grand welcoming ceremonies were held wherever I stepped.
“The people are full of loyalty to the king. The lives of the people who were being devastated were saved with the food and resources sent by the king.”
As Cartiel said, they seemed very loyal to me.
Of course, since I’ve brought back a place that had been destroyed by Rylakan’s invasion, I’ll look like a savior to them.
“But that person…”
“Omg! Ra, Lailakan!”
But they screamed as they saw Lyla Khan, who was following me.
“Ji, are you really Lyla Khan?”
“Why is he here…!”
Their panic was understandable.
How can you look good on Ryla Khan who destroyed the kingdom of Shana and killed Natasha and the two archmages.
“hehehe. Everyone hates you?”
After hearing the news that a battle had broken out between me and the Rylakan army, I rushed to join, but the situation was already over and Flame followed me to Shana Kingdom.
He didn’t like Rylakan very much, so he started a fight at every opportunity.
“I just did what I thought was right.”
“hahahaha. Look how shameless this guy is. Did you think that was the right thing to do?”
“I don’t think that’s what a dragon that destroys cities and burns people with its breath for no reason would say?”
“Kuh, kuhm. That, that’s…”
“And don’t talk to me carelessly, dragon.”
“What? The one who won’t even have a piece of bone left in my breath.”
“Would you like to try it? Whose bone fragments are not left?”
“OK. Let’s try it.”
I was going well, but Ryla Khan and Flame both sharpened their blades and began to boil their mana. Then, before the shrimp’s back exploded in the whale fight, I stepped out.
“Stop.”
With that one word, Rylakan’s boiling mana subsided at once.
Flame chuckled and taunted Rylakan.
“Kyakyakya! A guy who can’t even use his magic without Aslan’s permission!”
“…”
Lyla Khan bit his lip in anger.
As Flame said, Rylakan couldn’t use his magic without my permission.
Even though he had surrendered to me, Eltihi, who said he could never be relieved, had used magical power persistence magic.
As proof of surrender, Rylakan allowed me to use magical power retention magic.
‘Eltihi. After all, you are the best.’
Although Layla Khan had surrendered to me, I was afraid that he might betray me again. It must have been that Eltihi solved it very well.
Of course, Layla Khan could break the continuation of the magic, so he tried to make it as non-angry as possible.
But-.
“Lyla Khan. And the flame.”
There was no way this guy’s bravado would stand still.
“Don’t reveal your worthless living.”
“…?”
“Couldn’t I have killed you by mistake?”
At that, Rylakan and Flame swallowed dryly.
The two have been quiet since then.
In that bloody atmosphere, Cartiel cautiously opened his mouth.
“Ah… I’ll show you the magic tower you ordered us to build.”
There is a saying that if the original result looks a little lacking, isn’t it a lack of money… And think about it carefully.
As expected, the results came out exactly as the money was spent.
This luxurious mage tower was equipped with all the latest facilities, and it was a place where magic research, defense, and even the role of a prison could be performed without obstruction.
“No kingdom will be able to build a mage tower like this. If we study magic and train wizards here, it will only be a matter of time before we produce archmage class.”
It’s a mage tower with a year’s budget for the kingdom, so of course we have to do this much.
Of course, it was originally made to imprison Rylakan.
“However, it is very unfortunate that this magic tower was built only in Shana Kingdom. You won’t be able to enjoy these top-of-the-line facilities in Eli Kingdom, right?”
Raphael, who put a lot of effort into the construction of this mage tower, murmured regretfully.
You’re not trying to build another one of these in the Kingdom of Eli, right?
How much money did you spend here anyway?
“So that’s the point. Why don’t you make a portal that connects the Kingdom of Shana and the Kingdom of Eli? Then the wizards in Eli Kingdom will be able to use it while moving at all times.”
Create a portal that connects kingdoms to kingdoms.
However, making that portal is not as easy as I thought.
Even if it was made, the maintenance cost would not be a joke because it had to be constantly supported by the mana stone.
However,
“Do it.”
From a distance, it was a well-deserved investment.
This is because you can foster wizards in the Kingdom of Eli and Shana at the same time, and if someone invades, you can use the portal for defense purposes.
“Make a portal big enough for a large army to pass through.”
“That would cost quite a bit.”
“Don’t mind the cost, just make it.”
“Yes!”
The magicians’ eyes twinkled.
There is no word that gives them joy as much as saying, “Don’t think about money and make whatever you want.”
I stood in place for a while and looked inside the Mage Tower.
It has a round shape with an open space in the middle, extending all the way below and above it.
“It’s progressing step by step.”
Then Rylakan spoke to me from behind.
“Is there only one color kingdom left now? If you just conquer that place, you will become the emperor of the continent. In the history of the continent, no one has become an emperor by unifying all the kingdoms into one.”
I listened quietly to what he had to say.
“It is short. Do you want to die?”
“······Sorry.”
Rylakan quickly lowered his tail.
It seems that the persistence of magical power is frighteningly frightening.
“Then I will ask you again.”
Rylakan asked me with proper formality.
“When are you planning to conquer the Kala Kingdom?”
“Why? Are you afraid that I will put you in the vanguard and slaughter your descendants mercilessly?”
“I can’t answer no.”
“The guy who cut Karman’s body in half with his hands is now worried about his descendants.”
“I had no intention of killing Karman. If he really tried to kill him, Karman would have died long ago.”
After hearing it, it seemed that Rylakan was not wrong.
With that formidable power, he would have been able to kill Karman.
But when he bumped into Karman, he only pushed him away, but didn’t kill him.
“Then you shouldn’t have killed the 10,000 army of the Kala Kingdom.”
“That was the work of the Knights of the Ghosts, who were my subordinates. If I had been there, I would never have prevented that from happening.”
Does that mean he still takes care of the people of his kingdom?
I said looking out of the window of the Mage Tower to the outside of Shana Kingdom.
“Lyla Khan. There is something wrong with you.”
“What is it?”
“I am not interested in conquering the kingdom.”
“Then······.”
“Neither you nor the people on this continent have any idea what I am looking at or what I am living for.”
This wasn’t bluff, it was sincere.
I have no interest in conquering kingdoms.
It’s just that they came to me first and offered the kingdom.
My only interest is
‘Survival!’
If possible, I want to build a space defense by erecting such a magic tower.
That way, even if the devil invades, you can stop it and survive here safely.
But there are reasons not to do so even if you have the resources to do so.
‘This guy’s atrocious difficulty level will never leave me alone.’
Even if I build a space defense, this game system will surely break through and come to me.
‘Cause they’ve always been like that.
As soon as,
“O king! Look at that!”
Just like now.
Kwaaa-!!
‘Ehh. You don’t give me much time to rest. You don’t have to give it time to fix it.’
This game never leaves me alone.
Will I die or will the game end first?
Until one of the two is decided, it is driven without rest.
“The portal has opened!!”
“They are demons!!”
Okay. I knew that, too, and prepared for it.
I let out a short sigh and looked back at Rylakan.
Then told him
“Lyla Khan. I will give orders as your lord.”
Laila Khan replied by getting down on his knees.
“We are waiting for your order.”
I said, putting my hand on his head.
“Go and kill all those filthy devils.”
See how far you can go.
I’ll send a nuclear bomb called Rylakan to wipe it out.
