Dungeon Defense

00090 King and General

“Hmph.”

Barbato glances this way. You can't help but notice the strange pigmentation on the kid's eyes. Please refrain from appealing to sex in public... Look... Neither Veled nor Zephar were restless. You can't use it when kids tease grown-ups.

“Our feisty pouch, the Demon King, Dantalian. How bad have you been thinking about this time? Will you raise your hand so boldly? ”

I smiled beautifully.

“We're ahead of humans. ”

“Lead the human race? What do you mean?”

“The army of change bags is largely composed of knights and conscripts. The conscripts are villagers who gathered voluntarily because they were afraid of our Demon Lord soldiers. Convince these villagers. Our Demon King soldiers do no harm to surrendering Humans. I will allow you to live as you have lived so far. Just pledge your allegiance to us. As long as it's safe, they want to avoid war, too. The force of the change bag will be greatly weakened. ”

Peasants are not gathered in the army because they have great loyalty to the territory. It is much better to gather together and fight in groups than to fight the Demon Lord in a village. Armies that are organized with a thorough understanding, and hence have strong cohesiveness. …… an army that could be compromised at any time if it offers a greater advantage here.

“Humans can't trust us that easily. ”

“That's why we need to move forward with the same human being. Humans will listen if they are persuaded. I finally have the right people. Take advantage of them.”

I thought of the village around my dungeon and said, Parsi makes the villagers form some kind of death squad. They are advising surrender while traveling through villages in the territory of Chang-back.

“Generally, the villagers will rebel. There will be villages that are favorable to persuade, villages that are negative. Then we mobilize the stars. We wipe out villages that have expressed negative opinions about Tutong. ”

“Will humankind cooperate as easily as you say? ”

Commander Zephar has spoken.

“They hate us. ”

“Of course. But there's one thing Humans hate the most. If you promise to stop it, the human race will gladly return to us. ”

“What is it? ”

“Death.”

“ ……. ”

The Demon Monarchs reacted loudly, making sure my words didn't sound too convincing. It was adopted because there was nothing to lose even if I tried. The results were as I expected. Whereas the village that had survived the slightest bit of surrender was safe, many villagers argued and surrendered after the destruction of the village that had unilaterally ignored the recommendation.

About 2,000 of the 35,000 troops in the change bag fled after five days. The changebacks were taken by surprise to the village deserted - deserted in groups - in the name of betraying three or four human beings. This is what happened. Instead, we dispatched an army from our 6th legion when they attacked the village.

We actually watched the promises made to the villages. On the other hand, the change bag, which is notably responsible for protecting the territory, attacked the village in order to maintain the army. The conscripts rebelled and fled on a massive scale. Finally, the troops of the change bags were reduced to 17,000. The army was torn apart before a proper fight could be fought. Rumor has it Von Rosenberg's change bag was furious with blood. Poor thing.

Surprised by the unexpected results, so did the Demon Lord. The Demon Prince did absolutely nothing extraordinary. I sent a delegation to advise surrender, and it only protected the town as it is written in the Surrender Document. The Demon Monarchs couldn't fathom what was going on when the enemy collapsed. They looked at me with the eyes of some magician.

I smiled and explained step-by-step.

“You've overlooked two things. The first is due to prejudice. ”

“Bias?”

Veled rebelled against me as a representative of another Demon King.

“Yes, you see the human population as a group, consciously or unconsciously. But think about it. How do those numbers of humans come together? They have class, they have territory, they have conflicting interests. The reason they are united is solely because of our Demon King army. Now that it turns out that we're not unconditionally hostile to them, there's no reason to go against us to Minho. ”

Humans are equally biased. Humans will treat the Demon King's army as a group just because they are led by the Demon Kings. However, there are naturally internal groups that oppose each other in the Pyeongpani mountains. I can't help it.I didn't think the Demon Kings considered so many Humans as one species and could divide the Humans....

This bias stems from the Black March Defence Force. The acidic defenders of the Black Mountains had unusually limitless responsibilities towards humanity. The Demon King was the enemy of humanity, and he believed it was impossible to surrender to them. No, only the believers signed up for the acidic defenses…… When the Demon Kings invaded the continent, the first of their kind was an acidic defensive force, which provided preconceptions.

In the dungeon, there is a scenario in which the human race divides. Even in the original story, such preconceptions collapsed and the human world split in two. The part where you cooperate with the Demon King in pursuit of survival, and kill the Demon King. I was a little ahead of the originally scheduled scenario.

“The second thing you've missed is fear. You don't know how much fear the word" moon blindness "gives to humans. Human life expectancy is usually 60 years. The seventh month was 200 years ago. To them, the Moon Blind is a legendary nightmare of the past. The nightmare happened. If you can avoid it, you want to avoid it. ”

The Demon King has an infinite lifespan. I live on as long as I don't get hurt anywhere. If the Demon King comes to us with a perception that the Moon Blind is "Oh, my God!" The Demon Kings invaded with an alliance? 'perception. Twenty monsters could pose a serious threat to the human village. But tens of thousands of monsters invaded. Nothing but fear.

You can tell by the attitude of the acidic defenders in the Black Mountains. They didn't expect us to be the front line of the Moon Blitz. I had to go last to find out....

“As long as there is no assurance that we will not attack, the villagers are no different from the human lords or the Demon King. ”

Zephar nods.

“Indeed. Is it bias and perception...? I feel sorry for the Imperial Army. We lost nearly half our army without a single battle. Tactics are a trick.A trickster like you is a blessing to the Demon King's army and a curse to the Humans. ”

The 6th Legion marched relentlessly.

Now the Empire Army has fallen behind the Sixth Army, even in terms of troops. Seventeen thousand Imperial soldiers, eighteen thousand Demon Kings. Monsters were always overwhelming in the soldier's vagina. Even after the siege, I was forced to defeat the Demon King.

The change bags retreated, running out of dust. They gave up on the Holy Father's village. He fled inland to join the central army of the islands. In the process, another large number of deserters occurred. Combining the information of the deserters, the total number of troops who followed the change bags to the end was less than 8,000. It was a great victory.

“What the fuck? ”

Barbato curses at his victory. Currently, we have gathered at the residence of Von Rosenberg's change bag. An expensive marble viewing room. Barbato was sitting on the throne of a change bag with the world's most ridiculous look on his face.

“What the fuck?! Change bags were so easy!? ”

No one can answer Barbato's roar quickly. He would, because the other Demon Kings had the same feelings as Barbatos. There was nothing they wanted to ask anyone.

I made a bitter smile.

“It's bloodless. You could be happier. ”

I was standing closest to Barbatos. Regardless of Zata, he was recognized as the Chief Operating Officer of the 6th Army. You succeeded in capturing the northern hemisphere of the Habsburg Empire without a drop of blood.

“No, what we've been struggling with for the last two thousand years...? I've only succeeded in conquering this far three times, and I only got it in combat because I wanted to fuck it up. ”

“If you have a bad head, you're in trouble. ”

Barbatos is a face that has completely lost its spirit. Mental collapse in real time. In fact, the majority of the Demon Kings gathered here, not only in Barbato.

“I mean, what? We've been screwing around for 2,000 years...? ”

“The word" shoveling "is rather unsettling, Earl. ”

“…… Earl? What the hell is that? ”

I took the parchment scroll out of my arms.

“The people of this land have decided to establish you as the rightful and only lord of change. From now on, the Earl is obliged to look down on his territory, and the Earl is obligated to obey his orders. ”

“Uh, uh...? ”

“Your grief is great. As the Demon King, you are the first to gain control over the Mines, Humans and Sheep." Barbatos is the only one who has accomplished such an achievement throughout history. As of today, Mr. Barbato reigns as the eighth Demon King and the Brandenburg Change Bag. ”

I leaned back sharply.

“Wait! What the fuck? Why should I care about Humans? ”

“You accepted their surrender. ”

I spoke to Barbatos in a gentle tone.

“Of course it's the nobles who rule the territory. ”

“Hey, Dantalian, you son of a bitch. Honestly, this is what you've been trying to do from the start? ”

“Didn't the Earl say. He wants to defeat von Rosenberg without being fooled by Pymon. I acted according to your demands. ”

She shuts up. Because what I said was true.

“Until the day the conquest of the continent is over, we will only rule man temporarily. After turning the entire continent into the world of Mine, it's not too late to tighten the human race. Until then, we use human species. ”

“Hah. Strange. Something's not right, damn it. You won. Why are you so grumpy? ”

Barbatos grunts. She doesn't want to do this meaningless and annoying work, leaving the whole territory to me.

The first policy I implemented was to mobilize troops and subdue wild monsters living in the wilderness of the territory. I needed monster meat as a substitute, as long as I couldn't fight the Humans for humanity. The colonists were astonished at the sight of monsters subjugating them, but they admired the bold and merciful policies of the new lords. He provided the army with food, he got the people's opinions, and he made a fortune.

An army of 18,000 monsters has garrisoned them in the Holy Village. Humans from Holy Village followed the change bag, so it was a good place to camp.

“The Lord is dark. ”

Laura said, after sitting on the table and watching me do my job.

“In the end, this war was ruled by the Lord from beginning to end. I'm sure it will.”

“I'm flattered.”

I grinned. I meant it. I was just copying what was going to happen at Dungeon Attack. In Segan, we'll call it the Cheet, but whatever.

I've done nothing wrong.
