Now, the cooking battle at the Demon King's Castle has ended with our victory, but there's someone I want to question first.

"Hey, Dad. Would you like to explain to me what this is all about?

Let me ask you to tell me more about this girl Helu who is right in front of me.

What, you didn't know she was there?　I thought I knew. Oh, well, okay, she's a real son of me and my mom, and she's definitely your sister. She's a true child of mine and my mom's, and she's your actual sister, without a doubt.

Hey nice nice nice nice nice nice ！！！！
This f*cking father, why did he keep such an outrageous truth under wraps until now, and then suddenly blurt it out here!
That means wait a minute.

You knew about this and didn't tell us?

She nodded with her usual smiling face at my panicked question.

Yes, of course. I'd like to tell you about Kyou-chan, who seems to have forgotten that she met Helu-chan a long time ago, but Helu-chan bends over and says, "You don't have to tell me! I didn't get a chance to say it because I was complaining about it.

"Ha, mother!　I told you to keep it to yourself: ......!

You can't help but feel flustered by your mother's frank talk.
The most important people around me are the goddess, my parents, and others who are not afraid to open up about important things like this.

Wait a minute. So, Helle is from here?

"That's right. As opposed to the fact that you were born and raised on Earth with your father, she was born here on my world and raised as a daughter of the demon king. I sent her to visit you because she insisted on coming to see you when I told her I had an older brother.

"Oh, yeah, ......, but why did you call me a relative's kid then?

I mean, it's just that I didn't want to mess things up at home. You have a sister who grew up in a different world, but she's coming to visit you, which is weird, right?

Of course, but in your case, I'm 100% sure it was just a hassle to explain to you.

...... So, if you remember me, brother, I have a favor to ask you.

"Oh, please?　What, what?

You should not have to worry about the fact that you're not going to be able to get a good deal more than you think.

I want to stay with my brother to punish him for forgetting about me, right?　I can't veto it.

Yeah, well, that's totally fine. It's true that I was the one who forgot to make an appointment. I'm sure you were just trying to make a character out of it.

"!　No, it's not!　I'm always trying to talk like the daughter of a noble demon king. Now, brother, I will mark your body with all the marks I have missed so far so that you will never forget me again.

I'm not sure if this is the first time I've taken such a proactive action. It's not just a matter of time before you'll be able to get a good idea of what you're looking for.
Well, you were a timid child who used to cling to my back when I was little.
Maybe that essential part has not changed.
While I was smiling at such a nostalgic scene, I felt a tremendous amount of eyes staring at me from behind.
Mostly from Phytis and Dora.

Well, anyway, this is our victory. Will you stop invading my Valkyria territory from now on, Demon Lord?

When the game is over, Amarnes says to the demon king, just as the game is over and things are settled.
You can also have a look at the following tips to help you get the most out of the game.

Yes, a promise is a promise. I won't invade you from now on. However, if you do invade our territory, we'll intercept you.

"Fine. In fact, we would never make such an invasion.

"How dare you. You attacked our territory first.

"What do you mean!　I'm telling you not!

Hmm?　I don't think the conversation is going to be as subtle as it should be.

"Hey, Mom. Now that you mention it, what were your plans for us if she won?

It's a meaningless question now, but I thought that's exactly the reason for this conflict. I thought there might be a reason for the fight between the Demon King's side and Valkyria's side, and I asked that question. Then

I know. I was going to demand the release of my ally, the same SS-ranked demon and earthly guardian, Behemoth.

Hmm?

"You're kidding me. We wouldn't catch a monster like that.

Do not play dumb with me. We have confirmed the hidden incursion into our territory and the information about the behemoth taken. We have confirmed that soldiers flying your flag have been advancing into our territory many times: ......

I've told you so many times that I haven't!

Wait a minute. This is ridiculous. It's just not right.
Amarantine's spiritedness is clearly the rage of a falsely accused person.
But my mother, the demon king, on the other hand, doesn't seem to be lying either. Rather, that feeling is true anger at the invasion of her territory.



Then there are only two answers that can be derived from this.
Either one of them is telling a lie. Or there's a mastermind trying to put them together.

"Wait a minute, Amanes, and Mom. I need to ask you some questions.

I interrupt both of them, who are still arguing, to ask for confirmation.

"Neither you nor Amarnes is lying, right?

"Of course. There's no reason for me to risk my country to fight this demon lord.

I'm not going to invade or retaliate in any meaningful way unless you invade. I'm not going to invade or retaliate in any meaningful way unless you invade.

I checked the expressions on their faces and both were definitely truthful expressions.

...... Okay. So there's only one possible cause for this?

After a beat, I tell you.

"Who benefits from a fight between you two. What if the point of the plot is to get them to fight each other out?

Amanes noticed my words before the Demon King did.
Yes, this battle between the Demon King's territory and the Valkyria Kingdom. There was a country that was clearly trying to take advantage of us.
If this conflict was what he was after from the beginning.

At that moment, Amanes' communication crystal shines out.
It's one of those fantasy promises that allows you to talk to someone far away, well, in a fantasy world.
Amanes immediately takes out the crystal and sees the face of a soldier he recognizes from behind it.

"What's the matter?　What happened?

At Amanes' question, however, the soldier, clearly flustered and breathless, makes a report of what would have happened earlier.

I'm sorry, Mr. Amanes, I'm sorry ......!　The "Beastman Hero" Lily, who was leading our troops in the struggle, has just been captured by the hands of brave men from the enemy's Albrus Empire.

It was the existence of the mastermind we now suspected to be the source of the problem, and the defeat of an unbelievable fellow.
