“...... Good morning, Demon King.”
A quiet voice .. but it has a definite weight for it to call the person on the throne.
“……”
The one who sleeps on the throne is their king.
The four subordinates who were loyal to their king were waiting for the words of their king who slowly opened their eyes.
“...... I see, dream.”
Nothing interfered with the king's words.
The king stared with a dazed face at the subordinates who only hung their heads as they waited for the continuation of the king's words, and let out words while still in a daze.
“It was a dream, in which we destroyed the world, and did not let anyone ....”
That's right, it was a dream.
Inciting fear of all mankind──
Conspiring for the showdown of all mankind──
Destroying human heart connection──
Universally destroy the nation of mankind──
It was a dream where everything was destroyed like that. However, it was not a dream.
The plan has been implemented.
Under the name of the Demon King, they first started a plan with the destruction of the St. Empire. Altlists.
It took a very long time to reach a stage where it was no longer possible to fix it.
Even mankind itself is not aware of the fact that it has been destroyed.
It was because it was a plan since time immemorial that even the Demon King himself had completely forgotten about it.
“...... Demon King. Isn't this the right time now? “
"For what?"
“For the destruction of mankind ....”.
“Hmm ....”.
Hearing those words, the Demon King slowly began to shift his mind.
First, about where.
The throne on which he sat.
And then, this reception hall.
Distorted and richly colored scenery, which was scattered outside the window.
Turning his consciousness into the nooks and crannies of the castle, the Demon King recalled.
That's right, this place is the [Dimension Gap].
It was a land in the next world that was detached from the world.
This place, is the Demon King's Castle.
Monster Castle, which invaded the world.
Well, who are these people.
The Demon King looked at the four loyal subordinates that were in front of him.
Red, blue, black, and white.
They were four colored knights wearing strange-looking armor.
The Demon King remembered.
They are his strongest loyal subordinates.
Red Knight.
Blue Knight.
Black Knight.
White Knight.
Finally, about who the Demon King was himself.
“...... Four knights setiaku.”
“Ya, Demon King.”
“...... Who am I?”
Hearing the question, the four knights quivered with deep emotion.
They were given the chance to reveal how they felt about their incredible Demon King.
“Our king, our wonderful King.”
First, the Red Knight sang his praises in a gallant voice.
“You are the one who rules over fear and contention. You are the father of all evil.”’
Furthermore, the Blue Knight sang his praises in a soft voice.
And then, the Black Knight sang his praises in a low voice.
“You are the main cause of all evil. You are the one who will dye everything in the world with blood.”
Finally, the White Knight sang his praises in a refreshing voice.
“O King, Demon King of our Ikslaas. You are the one who will guide mankind to perish ....... Our Demon King.”
Yes that's all.
It was there that Ikslaas finally remembered.
Ikslaas is the main cause of everything.
To destroy the world, Ikslaas came forward.
But not yet.
A little more preparation needs to be arranged.
“...... Four of my loyal knights. For now, just wait a minute. Save your strength for the right time. “
“As you command.”
After Ikslaas nodded looking satisfied with their response, his consciousness went back to sleep.
Ikslaas's Underling.
Alva is loyal.
They will definitely increase the chaos.
For the right time.
“……”
The four knights once again sank into a statue-like silence and silently stared at Ikslaas.
During that time, the Red Knight opened his mouth.
“...... He slept pretty well.”
The Blue Knight stood up, and turned his body.
“In that case, it means he won't get in the way.”
“Wait, Blue Knight. You are not allowed to leave without a command.”
“Yes, hasn't that been until now?”
Hearing the words of the Black Knight and the White Knight who had a similar look, the Blue Knight fell silent, but once again started walking.
“...... The destined time is near. There must have been a need to check to see if there were any flaws in the Demon King's Castle. “
“...... That's true too. Can we leave it to you, Blue Knight? “
“Yes, and I will leave the duty of the Demon King escort for all of you.”
Saying that, the Blue Knight walked inside the castle.
The Demon King's Castle.
A floating castle hung on the [Dimension Gap].
A country where nothing can be created.
Floating with a shape that remained unchanged for a time close to immortality, the headquarters of the Demon King Army.
And then, it was an invincible fortress that could not be reached by ordinary humans.
Only those who bowed down for glory were allowed to stay in this land.
“……”
Looking down at the fortress city from the window, the Blue Knight muttered.
“...... This, same as always.”
The quiet castle town.
Made with the same mysterious materials as the castle, there were many different buildings. However, they were empty buildings that no one lived in. There is only the main road where the Alva come and go.
It's the same as always.
“...... Is it, really like that?”
Suddenly, such a thought flashed through his head, but he immediately painted it.
“...... No, of course.”
What appeared in the Blue Knight's mind replacing that doubt, was his task from now on.
He will make a declaration of war against humanity in the near future, and plunge into war.
By destroying the weak human race, they would build a heaven for Monsters on the surface.
Draw that scene in his mind ...... The Blue Knight once again arrived at another doubt.
“But ...... Why, are we not just waiting for humanity to self-destruct?”
Doubt is also expressed.
Inside the Dimensional Gap, the Blue Knight continued to wonder things that had no answer for himself.
The doubt was all painted, until then.
