Episode 122
Knock knock.
As I was jumping up the mountain, I heard this sound.
In that place where everything has stopped, no sound can come out, and no sound should come out. What on earth has happened?
“……Hoo.”
The answer was given by the owner of the two eyes that looked at me as I climbed up the mountain.
“It was quite an interesting number.”
A feeling of pressure that feels like my whole body is being crushed even though we only made eye contact.
A person who moves freely as if he or she is the only one unaffected by the spider’s magic eye, even though it is clearly spread out.
She was the Demon Queen.
“However, if you were trying to kill us with this move… that’s too bad, your move failed.”
Even though she wasn’t the only one moving freely, she reached out to the man who was standing still next to her and grabbed something from the air and ripped it away.
Knock knock!
Along with the sound heard from below the mountain a moment ago, the man began to move his body.
“Huh…… Huh……! What the heck is this……!”
“So, I don’t know who you are, but what do you do now?”
Shrug.
The Demon King shrugged his shoulders as if he had won, brought his long collar to his mouth and smiled with his eyes covering his mouth.
“It seems like all your attempts have failed.”
“You… you!”
Meanwhile, the man who was rescued by the Demon King’s hand fell backwards with his mouth wide open in surprise when he saw me.
Without further ado, that guy is a member of the Bone Fortress.
Okay, actually, things went better thanks to the Demon King waking that guy up.
‘Spider, how long do you think your magic eye will last?’
[Don’t… … tell me to stop! If I lose concentration… … it won’t work! Even in this state… … I’m at my limit… … .]
However, since the spider’s condition is not good, we need to handle the matter as quickly as possible.
Well then, it would be better to skip the introduction and get straight to the main point.
“Demon King. You guys are being deceived.”
“what?”
Are you confused by my sudden words?
He was flustered when I suddenly spoke to him, as if I was going to attack him, or maybe because my words were so unexpected. While he was flustered, a man from the Bone Fortress stood up.
“……I see, is that how you’re going to come out?”
The look of confusion he had on his face just a moment ago was nowhere to be found, and he was smiling as if he had won. Then he turned to the Demon King and spoke.
“Your Majesty, I knew something like this would happen someday… but seeing it with my own eyes, I find it absurd.”
“I see. I didn’t know when I just heard about it, but seeing it in person definitely makes me feel embarrassed.”
The Demon King is more focused on that man’s words than on mine.
When I saw that look on his face, as if he wasn’t even trying to listen to what I was saying, I could guess what kind of relationship they had.
‘You’ve already done a lot of groundwork.’
It’s as if they’ve talked about it with each other in case a player like me comes along and exposes their true nature.
But that didn’t make any difference.
After all, we were the ones holding the evidence.
“Demon King, do you remember what was in your castle’s basement?”
Shudder.
For a moment, the man’s face hardened, and the Demon King’s eyes, who had been talking to the man, read his expression for a moment, and she turned her face towards me.
“that…….”
“The tombs of your ancestors, the coffins that contained the corpses of the previous demon lords. When I looked, they were all empty.”
As if it had been moved somewhere.
As I continued talking, the Demon King’s head suddenly turned to another place.
It was as if I was looking at the Demon King’s castle far away.
Of course, despite that, the man started talking fluently as if he had everything prepared.
“We heard news that the coffins of the previous Demon Kings were stolen by players, but we did not think it was news that would warrant the Demon King himself, so we went after it separately.”
“What are you chasing? Weren’t you guys trying to steal me and make me your subordinates?”
I wish he would get excited and jump up and down in denial at my words, but the bone fortress guy immediately turned his head to the Demon King and continued talking as if he wasn’t even worth dealing with.
“I’m sorry I couldn’t tell you until now, but… I wanted to protect you for now, because I didn’t know what the players would do.”
“……Why didn’t you tell me? Couldn’t you have at least spoken?”
Of course, the Demon King still seems to be skeptical about whether the things he has done so far have served as a shield, and he is not sure.
I immediately brought two undead in front of that demon lord.
“Come here.”
Tatt.
As soon as the two undead that followed me up the mountain stepped forward, the Demon King’s eyes opened wide.
“you…….”
“Your Majesty.”
The surprise was short-lived.
In front of the Demon King, the two looked at the man with distorted faces and cursed him.
“You broke the seal, and on top of that, you insulted our ancestors!”
“There will definitely be a curse from the demon world! Your soul will melt away without being able to escape our demon world!”
Of course, the man didn’t stay still either.
“Manipulation! I am manipulating you, Demon King! The author has the same powers as us, and it would be easy for him to revive the dead and manipulate them as he pleases!”
When I pointed out that I was a necromancer, I laughed in disbelief.
“Me? These guys? Why?”
If they just tell us what they saw, it will be enough evidence, so is there any reason to do that?
Of course, that was just my opinion, and the Demon King, who didn’t know the context, was still having a hard time making a judgment and was wavering.

“And you, don’t even think about secretly contacting your superiors and doing anything stupid.”
For me, the fact that the Demon King was doing that was enough.
Anyway, my goal wasn’t to persuade the Demon King, but to make this guy show his true colors.
“Communication through your fraud has been blocked in this area, so no matter what you do, you won’t be able to break through.”
“Ugh…… Ugh……!”
In the meantime, the guy groaned as if he was trying to communicate, but there was no way it would work.
This area is completely stopped by the spider’s still magic.
Since it was a magic eye that was spread with all one’s might, it was powerful enough to render even mana and magic of the area immobile.
Of course, there was the downside of having a short duration, but that didn’t matter.
“It seems that my subordinates have already found the corpses of the previous Demon Kings that you guys had hidden.”
“Ah, no……!”
Because it seems like it’s going to end soon.
“Oh, by the way, you said that the reason you guys used this corpse was to use it in the fight against the tower.”
There are many ways to make a person show their true colors.
Whether it be power or capital, or whatever form of power is given… … .
“Yeah, since I got caught by you anyway, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to just have a go at those guys who come to get the body.”
Or, you can corner them so they have nowhere else to run.
Didn’t someone say that even slaves, when cornered, will try to scratch nobles?
Whirik-.
“Huh……!”
Of course, the slight difference was that it wasn’t me that he was trying to scratch, but the Demon King.
Anyway, right before the bastard suddenly tried to approach the Demon King, I immediately cut him down with the sword I summoned from my inventory.
Choaak-.
“Kwaaaaak!”
I thought I heard a scream, a beat late, along with a spurt of blood in the air, and then something small in the guy’s hand fell to the ground and broke.
“Ugh…… Ugh…… Ugh…….”
I kicked the groaning man away from the Demon King, and then I approached the Demon King, who was still blinking in shock.
“If you still believe them, I won’t stop you.”
“…….”
And then, in the next moment, the surroundings that had been still began to move again.
“……Huk, gasp. Gasp……!”
Suddenly, the Celestial Soldiers started moving again, along with other Bone Fortress members that this guy had called.
Of course I went up to the Bone Fortress guys and cut them down.
“Ahhhh!”
Those who die screaming.
As I was pulling the sword dripping with blood from their corpses, I heard a familiar voice behind me.
“First of all… thank you. If it weren’t for you, I would have continued to be fooled.”
Adversary.
She, who had been maintaining a confident attitude until just a moment ago, was looking at me and saying that.
Of course, the expression on his face was extremely dark.
“Thank you later, but more importantly… you guys saw that too, right?”
As I turned my head towards the Celestials, they immediately nodded.
Although the spider’s eyes stopped the movement, time did not stop, so they must have witnessed this scene clearly with their own eyes.
That’s why I told them.
“If we had left the Bone Fortress guys alone, they would have probably… devoured them all and made you their puppets.”
The leader of the Celestials groaned at those words.
Although it didn’t work out, it was because they realized that they too could become targets, as they had tried to do something against the Demon King, who was no easy opponent for them.
“And… if they find out about this situation now, they probably won’t stay still.”
As I said that, I looked towards the village.
These guys are probably high-ranking, so there might be someone who can contact the Bone Fortress, but if they find out, I don’t know what they’d do… It was obvious.
“It would be nice if they just backed down, but they probably wouldn’t do that, so there might be some sacrifices. No, there definitely will be.”
“what?”
The Demon King cried out in surprise at the thought of the demons being sacrificed, but what can he do? They would have done it more than enough.
“Even if we kill all of these guys, the Bone Fortress guys might come again… There’s nothing we can do, we have no choice but to make some sacrifices.”
At those words, the Demon King collapsed.
“no…….”
Have you already realized what’s going to happen?
Finally, the Demon King looked at me and asked me.
“Joe, don’t you have any good ideas!?”
The Demon King looks at me, flustered.
I looked at the demon king without saying anything.
Although they are undead, they are smaller than other demons I have seen.
Small build, even considering the overly large clothes.
Not quite a child, but still immature enough to be called an adult.
I could tell just by looking at him trusting me, who was just another player, even though he had been betrayed by the player.
She was not yet fit to be king.
“……It’s not that there’s no way. There’s a way to get rid of them here without killing a single demon.”
“Th, what is that!?”
So maybe she wants an ending where everyone lives happily ever after.
It might be a little harsh for her though.
“……You die.”
I woke up to reality.
“If you die and finish the quest, all the players here will return.”
