204-Part 2 Selecting an Ike Spy





Oda Nobunaga, aka Demon King Dylokuten, knows that obtaining information is the most important thing in war.

For this reason, the Demon King's army has been putting a lot of effort into espionage, and the spy unit under the Demon King has been established.

Demon King Dylokuten, Nobunaga asked a young man named Ike, who was the sharpest man in the Demon King's army, when establishing the unit.

Ike, I would like to train the grass 'spy thing', do you have a good idea?

 The loyal retainer in the mask of immortality replies.

''What a spy needs most is curiosity, sir. Also, someone who can think differently is desirable.

Well, it's true that you'll be going into enemy territory and undertaking unusual missions. What's wrong with ordinary people?

Yeah, I don't see the point of a guy who just does what others say.

 Ike assured him that, I have a strange idea, and told the Demon King the details of the test to select the spies.
 When the demon king heard that story with Atsushi, he was satisfied.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a great deal more to say. Your intelligence is unparalleled.

 The demon king praised Ike for that and ordered his men to issue a proclamation for the recruitment of inter-agents.

 Meissen, a wooden young man, came to the city of Ivalice when he saw the sign for the recruitment of inter-agents. 
 The examination site is a certain merchant's mansion, where about thirty young people have gathered.

(Wow, I wonder if I will be chosen from among this number?)

 Anxiously, the orc handed me a tightly sealed envelope.

''Well then, everyone, please take this envelope with you from now on and head to the forest on the outskirts of town. Never look at the contents of the envelope while you are there.

 The test takers started running at once, and the slow-minded Meissen was left alone in the hall.

''Ah, I guess there's no point in running now.

 Meissen muttered and opened the envelope. If he was going to be rejected anyway, he wanted to make sure he knew what was inside.

 The envelope read: "Congratulations.


Congratulations to you. You have been cleared. Come to my mansion in the center of town.


 Ike, commander of the Eighth Army of the Demon King...
