Chapter 32 Victor

The man that appeared on the bones’ mountain had a strange figure. The body is like half insect and half man with a black shiny armor; I can’t see its eyes in the head. Instead, it has a large mouth. It is smiling and raising the edge of its mouth while showing its sharp teeth.

“Oh, oh-oh-oh, I thought it was a monster, but it was a human being, it seems to have quite a strong power, perhaps is it a friend of the adventurer who broke the seal of this room?” (Insect man)

It looks like this guy is the culprit of this mess. It seems to know about the adventurer who found this room.

“Who are you, are you a friend of the devil woman there?” (Kelvin)

“Do you want to return the question with a question? Well, it will be okay.”

He answers with an annoying voice.

“I am still a gentleman; I will tell you whatever I can answer”

It’s quite a lip service… because I can see him licking while looking at us down to the bottom.

“Gentleman, I can only see a biped insect.”

“Kuff, it’s quite a good joke. I was late for the greeting, my name is Victor. I am an Archdemon. Although it is for a short time, I am honored to meet you.”

An Archdemon! Indeed, a Lower Demon is equivalent to a class B. In that case his ability…

“… …. Your mouth has been opened … Was something strange?” (Victor)

Oops, was it shown on my face?

Kelvin covers his mouth with the left hand. Gerard who was looking at Kelvin by the side secretly sighed.

“The bad habit of my Liege comes out……” (Gerard)

“Bad habit, is it?” (Efil)

“Oh, Efil was still not there when myself and the Liege fought. Well, I know what I mean. Now concentrate on the enemy.” (Gerard)

“? ”

Efil even while having doubts switches her head to fulfill her role.

“No, do not mind. So, who is the woman there?”

“She is, well, she is…….”

Kelvin points to the sealed beauty that does not show signs yet to wake and asks the devil. The devil made a smile, and answers.

“She is the daughter of the demon king.”

At that moment, the door which should have been opened suddenly closes, and a barrier is raised. Is it a trap done beforehand?

“I think that this is not very gentlemanly.”

“Kufuhu, it was just triggered by time or something. Even so, it is right to say that the retreat was cut off. This coolness, Kuhufu, I like it.” (Viktor)

He clearly cut off the retreat, this bastard. But now is not the time. The Devil’s Daughter?

“There were three devil demons in the past. If it is the demon of the closest age, it will be Devil Gustaf. Certainly, her hair color resembles Gustav’s red hair.” (Melfina)

“So what happened to that demon king?

“When my predecessor still worked for God, the Demon King was overthrown by the Heroes at that time. On the record, it didn’t tell that Gustav had a daughter.” (Melfina)

Didn’t the king demon make it public or is it a fake daughter? Either way, it is still a dangerous existence. Let’s try to talk a little more.

“I’m sure the Devil Gustaf didn’t have a daughter.”

“Huh… It is a wonderful insight. I have not said the name of Demon King yet, but you already know it. It seems that you are studying well.”

Well, Melfina is an expert knowledge.

“I agree, there was no child with the blood of the Demon King Gustaf, and it was a general historical knowledge that the demon’s army was broken down and defeated by the Hero, but this is a demon’s strategy.”

“Have you concealed the existence of his daughter in case you had any chance?”

“Good job”

Melfina is there a possibility that this woman will become a new demon king?

“There is a possibility. Demon King Gustaf’s daughter may be hostile to humans because of the resentment of being defeated.” (Melfina)

Victor is so, but can’t she leave, either?

“You are the adventurers, who have unsealed this room, aren’t you? I thought it is a correct answer. Well, I did not think that humans will come so soon. It must be easy to come here because the monster of the vicinity had been wiped out by me.”

“Well, I guess we are trapped and this mountain of bones is the remnant of the dungeon’s monsters. So, what is your purpose?”

I cannot grasp the purpose of Victor. It seems to be a subordinate of the demon king from the talk but he has been talking too much about important things.

“Well, it’s an embarrassing story. The chain that binds her has a mechanism that cannot be solved unless it is a human being. I am a devil can’t give even a single dent to it.”

“So you want us to break the chain? After hearing such a story, do you think we would do that?”

“No, no, no. It’s just… ”

At that moment Victor became hostile.

“I just want you to be eaten by me and lend me your strength.”
