That was quicker than I expected. I expected to have to wait a little longer.
'I knew it was you. I don't want more variations in the way you call me or anything.

　For some reason, when the Demon King's Army comes to interfere in some moderate way with us, this guy (Norzuuri) is often dispatched.

　I'm not sure I'll ever be able to fully understand what the demon king's army is thinking when they send it in as if nothing happened, even though the memories of their previous arbitrary actions are fresh in my mind.

　When I was thinking about ...... something, the current Norsuri opened his mouth to spit out with a blatantly unwilling look on his face.

''Don't kid yourself. There was no way I was going to step in this time. It was a matter for another demon general to take charge of, only to be suddenly told that he needed help.
Another demon general?
Kaka. I'm just wondering if you don't have the necessary manpower.

　Another demon general emerges from the depths of the underground space.

　Although he is a long-lived dark elf, an old demon general who has aged to the point of being completely aged - Vestori of the Earth.

''Long time no see, Luke White Wolf. I'm in charge of this matter, not him. The reason is the same as I told you before. Well, I guess that's all for naught.

　Vestri looked at Dustin, who was standing with his back to the wall of the underground space, with a smile on his wrinkled face.

I know very well what he's capable of. I know how good he is, because he completely got me in the last war. There weren't many people in Ivaldi's line of work who hurt me so badly.
That's probably because you didn't come out on the front lines.
'What do you mean? What's the matter with the commander of a golem unit on the front lines? You've been teaching me for decades to look at the big picture.

　Norzuri may have thought of lashing out with one of his sarcasm, but unfortunately, Vestri's relationship between the two seems to be slightly higher than his.

　It's a very good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

''Well, there, you two spearman. I'm going to ask you to lend a hand,
"...... fine. If you do anything wrong, I'll cut you both down.

　Dustin didn't seem to have much of a strong interest in the two demon generals.

　I casually approached Dustin by the wall and then spoke to him in a whisper.

'Are you sure?　They're also the men of Gandalf, the Demon King: ......
'It's a pointless question. You don't need to hear the answer to it to understand it. That's how rotten the relationship is, you know. You're a tight, rational, divisive guy.
Well, ...... yeah.

　I sigh briefly and I lean against the wall, shoulder to shoulder with him.

　Dustin the Demon King hunts.
　A man who made hunting demon kings his life's purpose after the life of his partner, whom he once lived with, was stolen by a certain demon king.

　However, if he didn't think about it and just fought with all the demons who called themselves kings, he would never have been able to survive for ten years, let alone rise to the A-rank.

''Although I always think about hunting the Demon King, I'm not going to do something inefficient like hating the entire demon tribe, and I'm not going to prioritize the right things.
The one to hunt first is Demon King Ivaldi. Then we can kill Gandalf. Then we can use them up too, if they are useful. And if you think you'll have to face them later when you hunt Gandalf, you can kill them then.
'I'm relieved to hear that. It's an obvious one, but it's a different kind of relief if you can fact-check it.

　At least Dustin has accepted the idea of fighting together with the Demon King's Army.

　It was already expected, but now that he has confirmed it again from his own mouth, I can treat it as a definite matter without any worries this time.

　I took my back away from the wall and decided to have a conversation with the two demon generals again.

'Norzuri. And Vestri of the soil. What exactly is the reason for calling us out?　Does it have something to do with this strange and vast basement?
'Answer me, Vestry. I don't want to do more than help with the chores.
Kaka ...... There's no need to rush, though.

　Vestri raised one of his hands in a hefty manner while making his characteristic laugh.

　Then, from the depths of the underground space - from the darkness where Vestri had appeared earlier, an earthen golem walked in a leisurely motion.

''Luke-dono. That golem is the only one they've brought to the first level.''

　The Knight of the Golden Fang who is working as a witness is quick to explain.

　But it's Vestry anyway.

　It's not possible that this is the golem that it looks like.

　I brought my flesh-and-blood left hand to my right eye to expose the golem's true identity, but Vestri stopped me before I could activate my 'right eye'.

'No need. I'll explain everything to you from now on. It would be a waste to use Alfazul's 'Right Eye' for something like this.

　With a small movement of Vestri's raised right hand, the earthen golem began to act in a slow motion, as if the action was a procedure for entering commands (commands).

　A total of ten thick fingers of clay on both sides were placed on the thick chest of the clay, and the tips of the fingers were sloppily plunged into the root of the chest.

　It is a very good idea to be able to have a good time with them.

　--And then a large amount of metal chunks came rolling out of its interior.

　It is not necessary to bother using the 'right eye' to see that they are not unprocessed metal or anything like that, but rather metalwork that was manufactured with advanced technology.

''Armor?　No, there are too many different kinds for that: ...... If Alexia were here, would you have known more about it? ......
"Agart Ram managed to seize our stronghold during our ground invasion, but not without damage. This is the armor of Agart Ram from that time: ......
