We Live in Dragon's Peak

A giant demon king who seemed very dissatisfied with the state of emergency that the ruler of the demon race was missing.

Charlotte, on the other hand, smiled with great pleasure at the report from the Demon King.

In response to the opposite reaction of the Demon King and Charlotte, we gazed at each other with troubled faces.

Isn't it strange that the demon king and his entourage should react completely differently?

"Hmm. So, what's the cause of the missing ruler?" Haha! Could it be that you're playing with the witch somewhere!? "

Then we need to get them back together quickly and deal with the Great Forbidden Technique this time!

And when I say it, Charlotte says, "I hope so," and she laughs at other people.

The demon king sighed, saying that if it was that simple, it wouldn't have to struggle.

"Hmm. The opposite of what I said about the ruler being missing is true, but you're going to listen to me, aren't you?" Does that mean you know the cause of the disappearance? "

Even though he was missing, the Demon King was dissatisfied because he knew the movement of the ruler. Charlotte, on the other hand, laughed funny, didn't she?

My guess seemed right, and the Demon King could add a little supplement to it.

"On rare occasions, his people dazzle without telling anyone anything. At the same time, if the witch's whereabouts were unknown, there would definitely be trouble first."

Isn't that supposed to be my guess?

"Fool, the world is not as simple as you think. Especially since they've been connected for thousands of years."

"I-I see..."

Maybe something unimaginable is happening between the Witch and the Demon Ruler.

And the Demon King and Charlotte know their deep relationship.

But they won't tell us anything. In other words, I think it is very noisy content, rather than content that is easy to talk about.

"Well, so... I wonder how the demonic ruler is going to move in the future when he's missing?"

If this forbidden spell was the worst thing Charlotte ever told us, we can't handle it alone. I'm sure the witches and demonic rulers won't be able to handle it.

However, if you weren't able to contact the witch, rather than the ruler.....

As it is, there is no doubt that the world is in danger, rather than the pots of the gods.

We waited for the demon king's reaction while we drank a stick of saliva.

Then, the Demon King sighed again, dropping his shoulders and speaking about his future policy.

"Anyway, you should go back to the Mansion and relieve the fatigue of your long journey."

"Huh? You don't have to deal with the movement of the Divine Clan and the Great Forbidden Technique!?"

Enter the Divine Empire now to stop the Great Forbidden Technique. I know it won't be a sudden development. But I think we need to be prepared for the Divine Clan's movements, don't we?

And yet, do you have time to rest?

Everyone was puzzled by the seriousness of the matter and the temperature difference in the Demon King's response.

Looking at us, Charlotte laughed happily. And while giving the demon king a drink, he told me a little more about it.

As far as Ernea and the others are concerned, it seems that the Divine Clan has not yet revived the Great Forbidden Technique.

So I think we should stop it while we can?

“Yes, if it's normal, that's probably the best thing to do. However, if it was really a [um] great forbidden technique, it would ruin things in a hurry."

I suggest we sit down and have a cup of tea, Charlotte.

Priscia is already eating sweets on the Demon King's lap.

It can't be helped, can it? It's a difficult story for Priscia. Of course, it's a difficult topic for us.

As prompted, we sat down again.

The demon king said, watching as we settled down a bit with tea and alcohol in our mouths.

I don't think the gods can keep all their movements secret.

In fact, it's been leaked by us, right?

That's right. Then, in case it is known that you have secretly revived the Great Forbidden Magic, would the Divine Clan be prepared for it as well?

Besides, he added, the Demon King.

"The sorcerer of the Great Forbidden Technique will definitely be the Emperor first." With some kind of clue, you could have revived that abominable trick. I don't think the Emperor of the God Clan would give up his activation authority to another person. "

"Does that mean that the Great Forbidden Technique is not a technique that depends on the abilities of the surgeon, but that there are any activation conditions, and those who meet those conditions can handle it!?"

In the first place, forbidden magic cannot be used by ordinary people.

However, on the contrary, it means that if the extraordinary "powerful person" has the knowledge of forbidden magic, it can be reproduced.

That's why the witch keeps her eyes open so that the forbidden magic doesn't spread to the world, and the surgeon won't forgive you.

But the Forbidden Technique seems a little different.

According to the Demon King's story, apart from the special power to activate the magic, there is a means to activate it or something, and it requires a specific condition and authority?

Neither the demon king nor Charlotte speak of the details of the Great Forbidden Technique.

I don't think it's even cheap enough for us to say it's taboo.

Still, we need to know a little bit about the situation before we can proceed. Besides, we were the ones who sent the information to the demon tribe, so the demon king was concerned and told us in a discreet tone.

"Right now, we may be able to use the total power of the demons to invade the gods' empire and defeat the Emperor." However, if the Forbidden Technique falls into the hands of someone else, that could be the worst thing that can happen. "

And say that?

"In this case, it is easier to move in situations where the surgeon is known to be an Emperor." Think about it. If you are in a situation where a major forbidden technique is used. What should we do? "

Of course, I'll stop the surgeon from doing anything!

Worst of all, even if it means killing the surgeon, it's better than triggering the Forbidden Technique or the Great Forbidden Technique.

And then I responded, and I noticed that.

The Great Forbidden Technique is a large-scale technique that wipes out the heavenly paradise without trace. Probably, survival is hopeless no matter who is at the trigger point of the spell. This means that the surgeon can activate the great forbidden spell from a different place.

In that case, in order to stop the triggering of the Great Forbidden Spell, we must properly raid the place where the magician lurks.

And yet, if you don't know who the surgeon is, you can't stop him.

"I see. If you know who the spellcaster is, you can just target him and set up a sabotage operation." However, if you don't know the surgeon, you won't even be able to sabotage it. "

And while we were spinning backwards, the opponent finished their preparations and activated the Great Forbidden Technique.

Therefore, at this point, the surgeon is definitely the Emperor himself first. If the situation continues, it is convenient for me to use it when I have to.

"The Great Forbidden Technique needs to be completely erased." However, if you move easily to defeat the Emperor before we are ready, it is possible that the Emperor who has a sense of crisis will not know where the Great Forbidden Technique is. If that happens, it could be the worst thing that can happen. ”

"Moreover, the fact that the Emperor is only a magician doesn't leave the speculation area, so you have to get the confirmation there, right?"

That's right, the demon king nodded.

But is that really all right?

It was Mistral who objected.

"This great forbidden technique has already come back to life, right?" Then, isn't it a situation that doesn't seem strange to trigger anytime? "

Mistral is right to say that if the Great Forbidden Technique is a noisy substitute, it is better to crush it as soon as possible.

But Charlotte said.

"That's right, let's just say you're familiar with it." For example, the man in black clothes who was killed here..... "

It's Barton Noir, isn't it?

Yes. Even when you used Forbidden Magic, you did a lot of preparations for it, didn't you?

Is it true that you collected the weapons of the Nine Demon Generals, and used the blood and lives of yourself and others?

Yes, even normal forbidden spells require careful preparation and great price.

Even if you have the power to create and handle forbidden spells, you must make various procedures and sacrifices to activate the spell.

And it'll take a long time to get ready, ”Charlotte tells him.

"This is a major forbidden technique, so it should take extra time and effort"

By the way, Charlotte told me about it.

Once upon a time, a great forbidden spell was created. At first, he wiped out the army, then the city, and at the end, he blew out the mountains, and crossed the earth to become a lake.

"In other words, the Great Forbidden Technique, which has just been revived, is still not that powerful?" Or can't you just do what you think? In other words, I guess I need more time to finish the finished form? "

Yes, that's correct.

That said, Charlotte pours alcohol into my empty vessel.

"No, no, I don't drink!"

Give the booze to Euphoria and Nina and get back to it.

"Well then, before the Forbidden Technique is completely revived, we need to gather information and find a way to definitely eliminate it?" But if you still have that much power at this stage, would it be better to strike your hand early? "

"Then we'll go back to the beginning."

"That's right. If you hurry up now, the Emperor could change the technician of the Great Forbidden Technique." On the other hand, it's possible that the Emperor himself will dazzle you. "

Maybe you've already dazzled me.

”Hah, I see! We didn't even hear about the trend of the Emperor.”

I mean, we're in a situation where we can't even move.

So, before you move in a hurry, it seems that you should rest first.

"When the time comes, I'll have them move." However, we must be careful before this, and now we will be able to read our moves. "

The demons are sending spies, so please wait for information from them.

We were lucky enough to get acquainted with Glossy Martial God Taeu and his close friends. However, on the other hand, our faces have been known to the other side, so we are already struggling to move within the Empire.

While we're resting, the demon kings seem to gather information from the spies they sent in.

"Well then, I'll let you rest for a while, as long as you're comfortable with my words." But if anything happens, please let me know right away. We will do everything we can to help. "

"Fufufu, you gave me a good word. However, it may take about a hundred years for the Forbidden Technique to fully resurrect."

"... what about you?"

"I forgot to tell you." The last forbidden technique took about thirty years from the first time the power was used to the full power. "

"Heh...?"

"The Divine Clan is good at masterminding and hiding these vicious schemes for a long time." The witch was struggling a lot, too. "

"What the hell!?"

So please be patient.

"I-It's too long!"

And, seeing how we turn upside down, the Demon King and Charlotte laugh happily.

"Fufufu, the last story is a lie."
