　An electronic tone sounded, announcing the receipt of an email.

　When I opened the email I received, the contents of the email were a list of demons to be exchanged, sent by Demon King Kaoru.

　--!

　This is interesting.........

'Creation subordinate (generic).
　Demon King. It's under the demon king's command of magic.
　Demon Lord! Those that excel at physics.
　Demon Butler...

　It looks like there are 3 demons that can be exchanged for non-unique items.

　The one I was most interested in was the one listed after that.

"Creation Order (Unique).
　Belial, this is a group that can summon demons.
　Barbados A group that specializes in searching for enemies.
　A unique group with one artifact and one unique item. We don't accept exchanges below this rate. By the way, for unique items, my choice would be Tulsos, the staff!　Next in line is the robe--divine robe, I think!　If it were a divine weapon, I'd want a wand!

　

　I can summon demons......... Does this mean that you can create subordinates even if they are not demon kings?　It may not be that valuable to the Demon King Kaoru, who can create demon seeds, but from my point of view, who cannot create a demon seed, its value is immeasurable.

　I operate my smartphone and send a text message.

''Question. What kind of demon species can Belial summon?　Is there a difference between the demon species summoned by Belial and the subordinates created by the Demon King?''

　After waiting for a while, the answer to your question is replied.

'Belial can summon a demon, a C-ranked demon, and it's no different than the one I created. There's no difference between them compared to the demons I created.
How many daemons can Belial summon?
There's one every four hours.

　One in four hours ... six in one day.

　--Canon!　What is the required cost to create a daemon?

　When I ask Kanon a question with telepathic communication, he flies to me in a panic and answers.

''Well the CP needed to create a demon is 100, hey.

　100 CP......... In other words, from the Demon King Kaoru's point of view, having Belial around would save 25 CP per hour....... If it was when he had just become the Demon King, but it's a fraction of CP now.

　Is the original use of it like summoning it during a battle........and using it as a disposable shield?

　Now, which one should you choose?

　Let's see if we can't come up with a deal.

'Here's a proposal. This one is to increase the exchange rate for general-purpose monsters. I'm not going to be able to get the best deal on this one. I'll also add a Divine Robe, but is it possible to trade for a unique subordinate?
'What would you say to Theon if he were in the opposite position?　Generic and unique - there's an irreplaceable difference in their value, isn't there?'

　Demon King Kaoru's answer was a roundabout way of saying it, but the point was to dismiss it.

''I'll get some time to think about it.''

　I was sending a mail to Demon King Kaoru.

　Now, what's going on?

　You have three choices.

　One chooses Belial.

　One chooses Varvatos.

　One handed over the other divine weapon and selected both.

　Handing over the sacred artifact of the staff--the Glowwand--is rejected. As the holder of the Glowwand, Sarah is one of the main forces of the Astor Empire.

　However, it was also a painful decision to hand over the Glowlage Sword. I don't want to give her any more divine weapons.

　The mass production of daemons is huge. According to the canon, daemons can be a major force in the future since they are an evolvable subordinate.

　In contrast, Barbados, which specializes in searching for enemies.

　This one is also very attractive.

　It's unclear what the search-specialization refers to, but it's likely to play a role similar to that of a Thief in the game. I have a feeling that this role will greatly enhance the Lina unit, which is the main fighting force of the Astor Empire.

　If the emphasis is on defense - Belial.

　If you're focusing on invasion--Barbados.

　I had to put my head in the sand for the troubling choice.
