Currently in the Black Continent, there is the latest kingdom in the world Remfilia──
The Zadark Kingdom that had Demon King Varvatos as its king. It was there that the white-walled Demon King's castle loomed.
The light gathered within the huge magic formation that was in the dim underground of the castle, and before long, it disappeared along with a figure of a person appearing.
Eina greeted the figure that appeared from within with perfect respect.
“Welcome back, Demon King.”
“Yes, I'm back. In particular, I deliberately did not contact you before deciding to return but...”.
Varvatos turned his gaze with a slight puzzled look at Eina who received it with just the right timing.
“That's because I felt the magic power of the Demon King.”
She has various thoughts like “According to the timing I came”, or “From where do you know and since when did you get here”, but because Eina is able to directly explain all the conditions, Varvatos remained silent and nodded.
After seeing Eina after such a long time, she felt that she was slightly craving him.
“How is the human territory? It would be better if Zweita did not act recklessly.”
“Zweita's work is done perfectly. Zweita is the one who is worried that Eina might stop working.”
“You have a habit of procrastinating. Do you think I don't know that you've become the center of attention of the castle town?”
“It was a testament to Zweita's popularity. Beautiful Zweita womanhood is on the level of turning men into stalkers at first glance.”
“Oya oya, that's quite unsettling. A waiter who brings trouble should be quarantined.”
“…”
“…”
They stared at each other intently, until it was like there was electricity emanating from both eyes.

After entering between the gazes of the two who immediately smashed each other, Varvatos turned towards Eina.
“Alright, let's see. Things have happened but it doesn't matter...... Oh, I forgot. Where did Sechste go?”
“She is in the large library of the first underground floor.”
“Same as usual.”
“Yes. Should I go and drag him out?”
Saying that it was unnecessary, Varvatos waved his hand at Eina.
“I only have a souvenir for her. Since this is the right time, let's go visit it.”
The underground of the Demon King's castle was very deep.
The fourth underground floor contained a large magic formation, the third underground floor contained a treasury, and the first and second underground floors acted as a large library.
“...... It increased again.”
Passing through the front of the third floor underground, Varvatos muttered that.
In the treasury of the third underground floor that was empty due to the Hero invasion in the past, it had already begun to fill a large amount of treasures that were stored at this time.
The treasures were not things that came from history, but were mostly weapons and armor made by Norm craftsmen, who were a race that specialized in blacksmithing, as well as jewelry.
But even though the objects were new, their value was extremely high. For that reason, the treasury had always been guarded by the Magic Clad Armor.
“It was because the mines and veins were discovered one after another, and the Norm craftsmen constantly tested their skills against each other.”
As Eina said, the act of making something was on par with the life goals of the Norm craftsmen, and they were a group that would not calm down unless they always challenged their own limits.
Due to Varvatos' orders, they received definite protection in the Kingdom of Zadark.
It was a policy done with a plan to make them useful in industrial protection and stimulation, but the Norm craftsmen showed great feelings of gratitude for it, and finally offered their own masterpiece to Varvatos.
Of course, what they call a masterpiece is by the meaning of “His masterpiece at that time”.
Norm craftsmen strive to reach even higher and higher levels, and they will make offerings whenever their masterpieces reach new heights. This means that the result of the offering is the content of the current treasury.
“. It seems they are fine.”
“Ya, it went pretty well.”
The Varvatos group left the majestic treasury, and moved to the second underground floor.
In the middle of the abnormally open and conspicuous forest of bookshelves, there was an old stone table and chair.
The one sitting on that chair was the guard of this grand library, as well as the Monster that Varvatos had directly created, Demon Sechste.
With his dark brown hair tied back and wearing a thick robe, Sechste noticed Varvatos' presence and turned around.
Moving her sleepy-looking brown eyes, she stood up as if feeling ill.
“Welcome back, Var-var ...... My Lord, whom I love and cherish. I'm sure you're tired of completing your long journey.”
“By the way, it would be an honor if you gave something to decorate this quiet place and had to be protected, you know? Instead, it's a souvenir.”
In response to a manner of speech that seemed to show no love or respect at all, Eina looked down and pressed her forehead with her fingers.
“Yes I know. I've prepared quite a lot of them.”
When Varvatos snapped his fingers, the books emerged from the empty space, and falling on the table made a sound [Buk Buk].
From picture books to books for academic purposes, there are a large number of books he has acquired on the territory of mankind.
“Ooh, as expected of you, Var-var! Yes, I'm very happy. I love you so much!”
“Begukah.”
While gazing at Sechste, Varvatos pulled up a chair near Sechste and sat next to him, Sechste immediately opened a new book, and began reading it at an incredible speed.
The majority of Monsters were called brain-muscles, but Sechste was made after he consulted Northern General Altejio who was able to make calm decisions, and was a new type of Monster from the intellect faction.
But when you make half-hearted intelligence that leads to cases like how the former Western Devil is, it goes without saying that Sechste tuning is done with extreme caution.
“Sechste. After you've finished reading all those books, I'd like to hear your opinion.”
“Nn ?”
Without separating his eyes from the book, Sechste replied.
“What do you want to hear?”
“It's about the first time you think about.”
Hearing those words, Sechste stopped his hand in the middle of turning the page.
“This information is lacking. That's why I can't say it's absolute.”
“Yes, it will be fine.”
“Hal about the legend of this strange Hero. Although I can't say anything because I don't know about those times, it's very strange. It feels like I'm listening to a heroic story meant for kids.”
Varvatos remained silent and nodded at Sechste's words.
“....Good. I guess that's all I can say now. Anyway I don't want to say anything too irresponsible.”
After saying that, Sechste once again turned his gaze to the book.
“While Var-var does not exist, the world changes in various ways.”
“I'm sure it happened.”
“Although I'm sure there are various things you need to consider, you should pay attention to your steps first. I'll take over the supervision of another country.”
“..... I guess, it's true.”
Saying that, Varvatos and Zweita climbed the stairs to the first underground floor.
Eina looked at the two, and then turned to Sechste who had been staring intently at her for a while now.
“...... What is it?” eina answered with equally cold eyes.
“Don't give me that look, Eina.”
Removing a sharp expression from his face, Sechste looked at Eina.
“You, you actually know things, don't you?”
“Unfortunately.”
Receiving Sechste's gaze from the front, Eina replied.
“Concerning your conjecture, there are no points for me to complete or refine.”
Without disturbing her usual expression, Eina spoke.
“I'm a little closer to the Demon King than any other Monster. My loyalty will always be with Demon King Varvatos, and it is something that will never change for good.”
Making a salute, Eina disappears, chasing Varvatos and Zweita.
After chasing after him with his gaze, Sechste sighed, and then spoke towards the shadow of the bookshelf.
“...... Then, you will be in charge of monitoring. Ei will take the Kingdom of St. Altlis, and Wei will take the Cylus Empire.”
“...... Not the Jiol Forest Kingdom?”
“Sylphid sensitive to the scent of wind. I have no intention of throwing coal directly to a place that is already on fire.”
“...... Yes Ma’am.”
In the shadow of the large library bookshelf, there were two figures named Ei and Vei.
When they turned into small, dark-colored birds, it turned into a grain of light, and disappeared.
“...... It would be better if it was just my imagination.”
Without anyone hearing Sechste's murmur, those words were sucked into the giant underground chamber and disappeared.
