184 Episode 10: Meeting with the Crown Prince






 Logosia frowned at Set's statement.
 She gives him a glaring look, but Set was not moved at all. For Set, it's just more fearful to be hostile to Cain.

''All of the nobles have already decided that no matter what happens in our territory, we will not wage war. Even if the Crown Prince had his intentions, it would not be reversed.''

 Set doesn't want to back down and doesn't take his gaze off Logosia with a serious expression.

...... even if it was my intention?
''Yes, I won't go back on my word. --even if it's against the entire Demon Nation.

 Logosia cleared her throat at Set's words. Until now, Set had never passed an opposing opinion to the Crown Prince.
 But never change your opinion and remove your gaze, Logosia broke at Set.
 He removes his gaze and lets out a loud sigh.

'...... I understand your opinion, Lord Set. The reason for this is because if you start a war, it will destroy your friendship with Lord Cain next to you. That's how hard you are.
No, that's not what I'm saying. I do not oppose war with mankind. I am saying that I will never make enemies with Lord Cain.
'What? That much ....... Why do you need to be so concerned about Lord Cain? Even though he is the head of a noble family, he is still a child.

 At Logsia's words, Set let out a big sigh and looked at Cain once, before turning to Logsia again.

'Because with the situation that was hostile to Lord Cain, the demon race's--defeat has already been decided.

 At the same time as those words, Logosia became enraged and stood up, slamming her fist on the table.

''That one child alone is going to cause my Demon Empire to lose! Tell me, Set!
............ Yes, that's right. Your Highness.

 Set knows what Cain is capable of. No, he doesn't think he knows all of Cain's power.
 However, even if he only knows the extent of his knowledge, he thinks that he is better than himself, the Demon King, no matter which demon race he is dealing with.
 It was because he had heard about it from Cain before.
 Shards of evil gods are scattered and sealed in this world, and those who are swallowed by their power are powerful, but they can't control it and will go on to destroy it.
 Whether it is a demon or a person .......
 If the same thing happens in the land of the human race, Cain can handle it, but if the same thing happens in the land of the demon race, Cain can't run to it.
 That's why Cain had been told to tell only Set, with whom he had formed a friendship, about it and to call him if anything happened.
 Even Set, the quintessential Set, was left in doubt about his words, but Cain revealed his status to Set.

 -- the act of revealing one's status.

 It is common sense that you only do that to a truly trustworthy person, whether they are of the human race or the demon race.
 When Seto revealed his status to Cain, he was surprised by the contents and at the same time cried ---- tears of joy.

 It was an indication that he was more than happy to be trusted by Cain to that extent.
 Moreover, Cain's title is an apostle and sub-god of a god.
 He thinks it's only foolish to antagonize that god (Cain) against him.
 Set had absolute faith in Cain who had done that much for him, and there was absolutely no way that Set would be hostile to Cain, who said 'friend' to him.

 At Set's expression, which hasn't changed at all, Logosia sits down in her seat without strength, as if she had broken.

''-- Is it that much, Cain-dono ......

 Set just nodded quietly, not speaking.

I'm going to be able to oppose any war with the human race," she said. If you intend to start a war, even if you are my brother, I will drag you from your ---- position (the crown prince).

 Logosia was surprised that not only Set, but Lizabeth also announced her opposition, and even said that she would take away the crown prince's position.
 In their words, Logosia could see that Cain was not just a nobleman.
 With an awkward movement, Logosia gives Cain a look.

'...... Lord Cain, I want you to answer honestly. What would happen if you waged a war against the human race ......?

 At Logosia's question, Cain made a serious expression and opened his mouth.

''If even one person in ...... the country of the human race, or even the city, is damaged, we will all be asked to leave. Even if you go back--I don't know if the country is still there.

 Cain replied with a bit of exaggeration.
 Neither Set nor Lizabeth would allow genocide to happen, and Cain had no intention of doing it either.
 But that doesn't mean they can't.

 Logosia didn't know the truth of Cain's statement, but he cleared his throat from nervousness at what he had said.

...... All right. My opinion alone will not pass, but I'll take that statement to heart. I'm going to be discussing the future, and it would be great if you could stay in the castle as well. I'll take care of him, Riza, but may I ask you to take care of him?
Yes, brother, I'd be delighted.

 Contrary to the nervous Logosia, Lizabeth agreed with a smirk.

 It would take a few days for all of the demon kings of each country to get together, so Cain was going to stay at the castle as a guest of state.
 Set has a mansion in this city as well, and since he was planning to stay there, Cain tried to accompany him, but he was refused because he was visiting as a state guest.

''As expected, you can't take him to the mansion and other places when the crown prince has invited him as a guest of state.

 I was a little shocked to be refused, but I agreed that I couldn't be selfish as I was visiting on behalf of the Esfort Kingdom.
 However, the room he was shown to was always with Lizabeth, and she was with Cain.
 He never asked to stay in the guest room, as was the case with the stones, but he often stayed until just before he went to bed.

 Then a few days passed, and the Demon Kings of the Demon World countries, including the Crown Prince, were all here and a meeting was to be held.
