253 Invasion of Nonoichi City ⑥




That was even better than I imagined.

 I was surprised to hear the number of people who surrendered.

'It seems that Lina-san and Kotetsu-san were a big part of it.
''I see. As expected of the 'Black Sword Hero' and 'Sword Saint'.
"Especially Lina-san--'Black Sword Hero' was a symbol of the Kanazawa Liberation Army, you know.

 Lina is a symbolic figure........ Did the sage and the saint make Lina a symbol out of guilt?

''Now the invasion of Nonoichi City can be shortened significantly.
Yeah.
'Canon, let's be careful. Allow the surrenderers to use their phones.
'What? Are you sure?
All they've seen is the entrance to the frontline control area and the Tenth Control Area, which is empty. There's no information to worry about leaking.
Oh, I see. So, we can get the surrenderers to surrender, right?

 I shook my head when I heard Kanon's words.

 But over 70,000 people........

 Even though I've had them disarmed, there will be those who can use magic and those who are skilled in martial arts. Should we divide them in case of a rebellion.........

 However, splitting them up would require that much more surveillance.

 There's no surplus in strength right now.

 --Yataro, I delegate authority over the Tenth Control Area. Surround the surrenderers with traps outside their living areas and let them know that.

 Even if you revolt, you can have the Tenth Domain. But the price for that - the experience of the divine weapon.

 There are more than 70,000 disarmed humans....... If I say that I'm going to use them to feed on divine weapons, the people around Takahar are going to be very happy. If they revolted, then the territories would be satisfied with defeating them.

 I finished dealing with the unexpectedly large number of surrenderers and decided to turn my mind to the next battle.

 There were more than 70,000 people who had surrendered. With the call for surrenderers, the number of surrenderers could be even higher than it is now. Furthermore, the survival of Lina, who was treated as a symbol. The inside of the Kanazawa Liberation Army will be greatly shaken.

 The next battle will be a major turning point.

 We will strike at once where morale is low. The more enemies we defeat, the lower the morale of the Kanazawa Liberation Army will be in a chain reaction.

 If that's the case, what we have to give to the Kanazawa Liberation Army in the next battle is-- absolute despair.

 For that reason, we need to throw in our war effort without being generous.

 I operate my smartphone to check the situation in the territory we control.

 In the area controlled by Hakusan City, Demon King Kaoru's forces are invading at the same high pace as ever.

 In the dominant territory facing Toyama Prefecture, the two dominant territories are being invaded by the humans in Toyama Prefecture.

 Leaving Demon King Kaoru's forces alone, we need to quickly clean up the invaders from Toyama Prefecture and relieve Izayoi of his defense.

 --Tell all officers! We will now defend the human-invaded territory in Toyama Prefecture! All those who have the strength to spare, come to me!

 I waited for about ten minutes and all the executives gathered under me.

''d*mn.......Didn't you say you were physically fit?''

 I chuckle at the sight of some of the executives.

'Well fine I'll do the selection! Those not selected should rest for tomorrow!

 The created subordinates are not very flexible in this area. Chloe and Leila are clearly fatigued, and Red, Noir and Rouge have many lacerations on their bodies.

'Takahar! Sarah! Saburo! Izayoi! Setanta! Blue! And--
'What? What? 
 Ignoring Blue's surprise at being called my name, I shift my gaze to Lina and Kotetsu.

''-- Lina, Kotetsu. You're dealing with humanity, but that's okay?
You don't know what you're talking about!
The people you fight tomorrow and the people you will fight in the future will include humanity, too.

 Despite my concerns, the two of them take a powerful step forward.

''Oh, and ... by the way, canon.
'What? It would be superfluous to add to it.

 The priority of gaining experience in canon is high.

''My lord I am!
''Hibiki you need to heal your wounds for tomorrow.
"--! My master's kind words to me ... to me, who is no better than a lowly pig ...? No! Master! I can go too!
Hibiki don't take it easy.
"I don't want to strain myself, sir! Master had only one thing to say you despicable pig! You will be my meat shield, and you will scream your filthy screams--

 --Hibiki, shut up! ........and rest.

 I shut the mouth of the runaway pervert (Hibiki) and looked around at my selected subordinates.

''The rest of the ten of us, including me, will clean up the human race in Toyama Prefecture! We're going to show you an overwhelming power differential!

""Oh!"

 He and his exuberant crew began to move in to clean up the invaders in Toyama Prefecture.

 We were waiting for the arrival of the invaders from Toyama Prefecture, having made full use of the [Transfer Device] to get ahead of them.

"Hmm..... As Ando-san of the Kanazawa Liberation Army said, we're short-handed.
Let's just let it go, shall we?
Heh. Releasing the control area of the 13 deadly stars (Zodiac)... isn't that an honorable mention?
'Be on your guard! The Black Lare people who preceded us haven't returned yet!
Maybe you're transitioning somewhere and eating grass?

 The voices of men and women echoed in the quiet realm of control.

'Correct! Your buddies who started it are eating roadkill in the afterlife.

Who's--?
Who's the...?

 The invader responds to my voice and readies his weapon.

"Who are you to come into someone's house with your feet on the ground?
You're Theon, right?
'I don't know ... a demon king and a vampire, right? Isn't it?
But don't you think it's not a bad term to say, "I'm going to come to this Demon Lord's house with my feet in the dirt"?
If you had asked me, I would have given you my best advice.

 The four a**h*les throw a tantrum over my words.

 --Takahar, you'll confiscate the bike. All you are forbidden to ride anything other than Saburo's special moped.
 --Sablow, I will allow you to suck blood from Sarah and canon. But then you're going to have to come with me to practice my special abilities.

"Hey!
.........ma!  .....
'Mr. Theon what can I do to make you forgive me...'
"Master Theon I do not understand the latter part of your command.

 The four a**h*les realize the gravity of what's going on they shake like a newborn fawn.

'There won't be a next time,'

 The four of them shook their heads repeatedly at high speed at my words.

'Hey!' You've got to be kidding me!

 A lone human being saw us and raised his sword in a rage.

''Huh........''

 Without even a demon king-like appearance, we began to clean up the invaders.
