The Betrayed Devil No Longer Hides His Power - Chapter 48



48 – New Hero 12

“So, what do you plan to do next?”

-“I think we need to look at the internal situation for a while. In the meantime, I’ve been away for too long. Because a lot of things happened.”

“There will be a lot of things to prepare to do that, to start working again.”

Kesar speaks as if he were talking to a friend who had just left and then rejoined the company.

Among those who actually became undead, there were those who, like the current Crassus, lived a normal life like the drought, so his reaction was understandable to some extent.

However,

Apart from that fact. At this moment, Crassus did not blindly believe in Caesar’s attitude.

‘For now, he accepts me meekly, but his opponent is that fox-like Caesar. Never be careless.’

A person who is sharper than Pompeii who died a while ago.

As such, Crassus felt the need to proceed with his work, at least for a while, being careful in everything he did.

‘If the fact that I’m a subordinate of the lord is revealed, things will get really complicated. Even if it means ending one’s own life, that shouldn’t happen.’

At the same time as making the most of the current situation, the risk in case of failure had to be minimized.

Although it will not be easy in many ways. In order to contribute even a little to the cause of the master, he has no choice but to do his best.

Rolling his head in his own way,

Crassus felt the need to confirm the core information within Kirks, which had been impossible to read with his false identity.

‘First of all, I need to find out exactly how the master’s plan worked. Regarding the current situation, there are many things that I do not understand… ‘

An ambiguous situation that seems to be too quiet for the use of alien world, but also nothing can be said to have happened.

While thinking that he should first check what had been giving him and the leadership of the Demon Kingdom a sense of frustration,

Bring Crassus back to the information room where he came from…

This time, he started moving while holding the authority as an executive.

And after a while,

After confirming the information he obtained without difficulty, he slowly nodded his head.

‘Really… Kirks’s work hastened the war… Right after that, the Emperor and Master finally collided. However, the emperor has not yet been able to actively take action while keeping an eye on it… ‘

Kirks has its own powerful power.

Considering not only military power, but also the personal connections he has had as a role in lubricating relations with other countries, it was inevitably unreasonable to attack Kirks prematurely in the midst of a long war.

‘Of course, even if the war is a little bit stable, they will turn their arrows right here. The problem is Kirks’ response to this… ‘

Neither Master nor Caesar are fools, so they must be planning something.

Unfortunately, however, nothing has been written about that part yet.

It means that something is being considered, but it is not yet open to the ranks of the executives.

It was at that time that Crassus felt regret about that fact.

“Have you roughly grasped the situation?”

-“! Ummm… That’s right, honestly, as I was a party to the situation, I expected it to some extent.”

“Yes, the filthy emperor did it in the end. When he found out that you and Pompey were lost, Master was very heartbroken.”

-“I guess so. Because he cares about his subordinates more than anything else. But even so, isn’t it dangerous to pretend to be with the emperor in this way? As soon as the war is over, they will turn their arrows in our direction.”

“I know, so even now Master and I are making preparations related to this.”

– “That… Something?”

Crassus asks a question about Caesar’s words.

And about this,

Caesar said with a calm smile on his lips.

“I can’t tell you exactly yet. But I can tell you that sooner or later something interesting will happen.”

– “Interesting… Day? Umm… Saying that makes me even more curious. Can you give me a little hint?”

“Whoops, later. I’ll let you know when it’s time to bring the plan to the surface. But… yes. I will only tell you that it is a story related to the demon king.”

– “Do… mind….King?”

A story beyond expectations.

Crassus could not hide his embarrassment for a moment.

I don’t know if it’s a different story, but the fact that it might be related to his master made him think in many ways.

-“Seo… Could it be that the Demon King has been resurrected… What do you mean?”

“hahahaha, you don’t have to worry that much, but I can’t tell you more than this, so please wait patiently.”

– “Ummm… “

I knew that when Caesar spoke like this, he wouldn’t open his mouth no matter what.

Crassus had no choice but to give up on hearing more details at this point.

However, even if he could not elicit direct information, he felt the need to dig deeper into the matter.

His own master and…

The absolute monarch who will lead this world to ruin,

For the Demon King.

“After… It’s finally over.”

“I had a hard time.”

The day the work at Pelopon Castle was finally over.

Frieza wiped the sweat from his brow with a little lightness, and she smiled lightly while watching.

Although he overcame a major hurdle once, Frieza had to spend a busy time without any rest for the past few days.

In fact, as the protagonist who led this battle to victory, he had to report various things to the Pope,

In addition, he had to spread rice cakes among the people for a pre-constructed plan.

Also, as a saint, it is a bonus to visit those who are injured or in trouble and deliver healing magic and words of comfort.

In a way, he was a freer who had to spend time looking more tired than during the battle,

Now, the work had just been completed.

“The atmosphere is not very good so that I can rest for a while. If you don’t get some rest, your body can get hurt.”

“Yes, I understand what you mean. By the way… “

“Huh?”

Frieza suddenly shows a meaningful smile.

Then she asked, her face blushing slightly.

“Are you worried about the girl?”

“… But, is there any problem?”

“Ah… no. What a problem. There is nothing like that.”

Even as he said that, Frieza was visibly delighted at this moment.

She looks away from me with an awkward smile on her lips.

And while watching this, I suddenly recognized one fact.

A person like me… That he was more dull than I thought.

‘It looks so obvious, but you didn’t notice it… ‘

On that day,

Freeza expressed a clear liking for me through the act of trying to give me the first time.

After that day, I began to understand some of her strange behaviors that I often saw.

And among them,

It was also included that she was visibly happy even at trivial things like now.

‘What can I say… Looking at it like this… Cute.’

I was originally a beauty, but apart from that, recently I started recognizing the so-called rational charm.

Frieza always shows devotion to others, but he himself is happy and grateful for every little thing.

In a way, it could be said to be a typical religious person,

Looking at it from the point of view of a woman who has a crush on me, it also became a cute element that could be attractive in its own way.

‘I can’t be sure yet… If the day comes when she and her are connected later, maybe that won’t be too bad….’

With that thought in mind, I turned my gaze to Frieza, who was sitting quietly at some point.

The figure of her dozed off in that brief moment of sleep.

A very short break enjoyed by those who always carry heavy burdens.

Capturing that figure in my eyes, I put a magical blanket over her shoulder as it was with a calm smile.

Then.

“Holy Lady! Stay here… !”

“Shh.”

General Nessus rushes upstairs.

Her teeth raised her fingers to stop her, and General Nenos, noticing her situation, approached cautiously.

“Excuse me. It’s so urgent… “

“What is it? When you wake up in a little while, I will tell you.”

Meanwhile, Nessus still couldn’t hide the urgency on his face.

And,

Immediately after hearing the words from her mouth…

I opened my mouth in a serious voice.

“The kingdom of the dwarves… You mean?”

“Yes, it is. It is reported that they are already crossing the border and moving toward Thebes.”

I expected it, but it moved faster than I thought.

So I looked at the sleeping Frieza and spoke to General Nessus in a quiet voice.

From noble mtl dot com

“For now, please call a meeting among the generals. When you wake up, I will take you there.”

“… Yes. Please.”

After looking at me and Frieza alternately with a slightly strange gaze,

General Nessus left this place without a word.
