The Betrayed Devil No Longer Hides His Power - Chapter 52
52 – New Hero 16
Saint Frieza heading out of the castle.
Looking at her as she headed towards the camp of the undead, the faces of the two generals, Darth and Nessus, were filled with deep uneasiness.
Frieza gave instructions to the black warrior to protect the castle just in case.
To be honest, it would have been more efficient for Nessus to be in charge of the defense, but Freeza’s opinion was that since it was a negotiation between countries, at least the two people who were the backbone of a prosperous country had to follow along in order to match the formality.
“Is it really okay? Anyway, I’m very worried about this… “
“It’s okay. Anyway, with our level of skill, the undead are not a big deal, and even if they do something suspicious, we just have to slit the head of the enemy general and come back.”
“Ummm… “
“What… Certainly not.”
I don’t know about anyone else, but all three of them here were among the strongest in the elven kingdom.
Even if they fall into a trap, they are capable people who can reverse it and come out.
Watching them agree to a certain extent, Freeza calmly said one last time.
“Come on, let’s go. Lord Dagon and Lord Nessus.”
“Yes, Mr. Freeza.”

Countless undead in front of you.
Originally, they were dangerous beings who instinctively attacked living things,
At this moment, they looked different in many ways from those common undead.
“… You are not attacking.”
“I expected it to some extent, but… It is a rather strange scene.”
Stand still in place as if it were a stone statue,
Undead lined up around the middle road.
And.
At the end of the road, there were people who stood out.
“That… “
Standing on one side is the undead holding a scythe called Zeke that we saw earlier.
And next to it was a demon other than the undead.
Her She is sitting on a chair that reminds her of her throne.
Her neatly tied brown hair, wearing a pure white dress,
A figure with a single white horn sprouting from his forehead.
The moment he saw him, Das spoke to Frieza and Nessus in a low voice.
“I know who the author is. Dancer Hella. He was known as one of the strongest in the Demon Kingdom.”
“Dancer?… Is that woman?”
Nessus expressed slight surprise as he had heard of its reputation.
Meanwhile, while observing this, Frieza spoke in a calm voice.
“… Right. By queen, I meant that guy. It looks like the Demon King died and took his place.”
“Since there is no tiger, the fox is playing the role of king.”
Yes, but even if not as much as the demon lord, the dancers are also quite powerful enough to be known by name.
Wary of that fact, the two continued to walk forward with Frieza.
“Anyway, it went well. At least the person I know, Hella, is someone I can communicate with to some extent.”
“Please… I hope it comes to a good conclusion.”

While talking like that, Frieza and the others arrived right in front of Hela.
Right after that, Frieza lightly bowed his head with a sense of politeness.
“F… Frieza?”
“Stay still. No matter what you say, the other side is definitely the current monarch of the Demon Kingdom. We need to show an example.”
“Ummm… “
The two elven generals bowed their heads even though they were reluctant to hear Frieza’s words about the principle.
Looking at it,
Dancer Hella said in an arrogant voice.
“Keep your head up. I don’t think there’s any need to set an example any further than this at the negotiating table.”
“… Thank you Queen… big… Your majesty.”
Perhaps because he was nervous, Frieza covered his mouth and coughed.
The two generals felt their bodies stiffen slightly at the sight, but the other seemed fortunately not to care.
“… First of all, I am very happy that you responded to my request. Being here means that you are willing to join hands with us… Can I see it that way?”
“Of course, Your Majesty. As you said earlier by sending an envoy, we now have a common enemy and an enemy that must be destroyed. In this situation, I think holding hands while putting aside the bad ties of the past for a while is a way.”
Freeza obediently expresses his intention to form an alliance.
Regarding this, the Queen of Hellas also expressed her affirmation with a smile on her lips…
Right after that, she asked a question in a more serious voice.
“This is a wise decision, but Frieza, I know that you have quite a bit of authority, but I have to question whether the pope will grant this alliance. How do you plan to solve that problem?”
“I will make sure to resolve the matter of the Holy Father. Above all, a girl is a being who hears the voice of God, and if God hadn’t allowed it, I wouldn’t have come here either. In that regard, I think the same is true of His Holiness the Pope.”
“… Good luck then. If it’s false, the alliance itself should be considered accepted and we should discuss more details.”
“I agree with you, Your Majesty. First of all, I would appreciate it if you could tell me what to do with the troops here.”
“For now, I plan to station them outside the castle. As you know, the undead don’t really need sleep… “
The conversation continues to flow as if it was guessed in advance.
Seeing this, Darth and Nessus couldn’t help but admire.
Frankly, no matter what the situation was, they expected a lot of friction from the start.
The sediment between the tribes is deep, and I thought that there would be noise, especially as the country was ruined on one side.
However, at this moment, there was almost no fight like that between Frieza and Hela.
As if we already knew what each other was thinking and what we were going to say.
‘I already know everything about my opponent’s hand, so this is it… Indeed, the saint chosen by God… ‘
‘As expected… High-ranking people are different no matter what? Or is this really God’s will?…’
Frieza progressed from the beginning of the conversation to the alliance negotiations in an instant.
Even though it was quite long and complicated, it took less than half a day.
Although the case is a bit different, the negotiation speed is surprisingly fast considering that it can take a few weeks if it is short to conclude an agreement, or even years if it is really long.
Of course, there would be a difference between what was done here and formally receiving the Pope’s offer, but in any case, a so-called alliance between the demons and the elves was immediately filled.
“Then, please take good care of me in the future. Her Majesty the Queen.”
“That’s me. Let’s do our best to exterminate humans together.”
The two look at each other like that and smile as if they came from the heart.
Of course, the two elven generals knew that this was just a façade, and that they were full of thoughts of throwing swords at each other as soon as the situation actually changed.
“Now that the negotiations are over, the demons have become allies. How is it? Since you came all the way here, did you stay at the castle with us?”
“It’s not bad, if it’s not, I’ll go with the attendants. No matter how you do it, you can’t get stabbed in the back like before.”
Hella speaks in a slightly sharp voice.
Regarding that, Frieza just smiled and brushed it off.
“You do that. I think it is a natural thing to do as it is to serve the monarch of a country. If not, we will go first and wait.”
“Yes, see you later.”
Freeza put an end to the situation with a slight fight at the end.
Immediately after that, they went straight back to Pelopon Castle.
Looking at her figure, Hella put a quiet smile on her lips.
“Anyway… The more I look at him, the more interesting he is. Even that woman called the saint.”
*
The alliance between the Demon Kingdom and the Elven Kingdom was formed in a flash.
As a result, in Pelopon Castle, in many ways, a rare scenery was unfolding.
Undead standing quietly in front of the castle wall.
The elven soldiers who were standing guard nearby couldn’t help but feel a strange feeling when they saw the guys who usually attacked right away when they got close to them.
“I’ve been doing this for 30 years. It’s the first time I’ve seen a scene like that… “
“Allied with demons… It’s definitely better than fighting, but I’m nervous about this… “
“I’m sure the saintess has her own thoughts, but to be honest, I feel uncomfortable too. Wasn’t it said not too long ago that it was an evil force that must be destroyed?”
“For now, let’s just focus on killing humans. It’s not wrong, but we shouldn’t be negligent about them.”
The general public opinion is accepted, but there is an atmosphere in which trust cannot be trusted.
In this situation, I looked at Frieza and Hela sitting in front of me and said cheerfully.
“Everyone did a great job. It was a pretty fun play.”
“Thank you, Demon King.”
“I am so glad you liked it.”
The two women look much warmer than before and bow their heads amicably.
Secretly rejoicing at the fact that the two of them seemed to have become a little closer,
I looked serious again.
“With this, the piers are well built, so all that remains is to raise the bridge.”
“Yes, I have already confirmed that part as well. A suitable sacrifice has also been sought.”
Freeza speaks confidently.
Looking at this, Hella and I showed a deep smile on our lips.
