In two days, a stage was set up in front of the castle for him to address the inhabitants.
　They were taught that in this country, the emperor would personally stand in front of the inhabitants and explain to them, and Cain agreed.
　However, since the Demon Emperor was currently recuperating and did not meet with anyone, the Crown Prince, Logosia, would explain instead.
　At the same time, he would also announce Lizabeth's return and that he would not be waging war against the human race.

''The rest will be explained to the residents by the Crown Prince, and I'm sure they will agree.
'I hope it's nothing: ....... That's the only thing I'm worried about. The other demon kings were supposed to be so against it, but they're quiet .......

　Cain was worried that the Demon Kings, who were so open-minded, had been quiet for the past two days.
　He called Dalmatia and instructed her to gather information inside the castle, while he himself was intent on acting as a guest.
　Even Dalmatia, as expected, was told that it was impossible to hide the presence of the same demon race, much less the demon king class, and no information was received about the secret talks of the demon kings.
　I was left with some uncertainty as I attended the ceremony.

''It's about time. Please move, please.''

　When I followed the squire who had come to call me to my room and left the castle, I saw that many of the people had rushed to the stage.
　After all, the speeches where the royal family and the demon king gathered were popular, and the residents who lived in the imperial capital gathered to catch a glimpse.
　In the midst of all this, Cain sat on a chair prepared for the stage.
　The four demon kings were seated side by side across the central podium, and Lizabeth was seated beside Cain.

''There's no need to be so nervous, it's not a problem. It's a peaceful ceremony.''

　Lizabeth muttered as she looked at the people fluttering below her.
　As the cheering rises, Logosia rises from her seat and walks up to the podium.
　At the sight of Logosia, the cheering was even louder, but when Logosia raised one hand, it stopped with a snap.

'It's the Crown Prince Logosia. It was a short notice, but I am grateful to have so many residents here. First of all, I am pleased to report that Lizabeth has returned safely.

　At Logosia's words, Lizabeth stood up and stepped forward once and waved.
　With that, the loudest cheers I've ever heard came from the crowd.
　Lizabeth flashed a smile, then returned to her seat and smiled at Cain.

'You must be very popular with your mistress.
'Oh, I can see how the residents are happy.

　Only in a country where the demon race was united, the royal family was popular.
　Then Logosia's speech resumed.

''It's true that Lizabeth had many hardships in the human nation. But we came back safely. At one point, she thought about declaring war on the race nation. But...

"Destroy the nation that has wronged you, Your Highness!
""Yes, yes, yes!"

　The animosity against the human race is still high. That's why Lizabeth's capture was so important.

But the fact that the tribe saved her and she has been able to return safely to the tribe is a certainty. And after talking to the representatives of the race nations, I'm going to make peace with them. From now on...

Wait!

　Denis, one of the demon kings, spoke up.
　Logosia glared at Denis, but he didn't care about it and stood beside Logosia.

''Your Highness the Crown Prince says this, but can you people really forgive the human race?　His Royal Highness Lisabeth was treated as a slave and almost killed in a human nation!　How can you let people get away with this?　I will not allow it!　I don't care what anyone says, we must not allow it!

'Yes!　Let's kick all the humans to the curb!

　Many voices of approval came from the populace.
　Logosia laughed at the cheering of its residents and then glared at Dennis.

'...... Dennis, what do you mean ......?'

　Denis' words continued as he overheard Logosia's words as she glared at him.

''We, the three of us, the Demon King, are in favor of starting the war, but your highness is shying away from the human race like this!　We demons can't defeat the humans!　Right?!

　The people respond to Denis' throwing with cheers.
　Set tries to stand up in anger, but Ignis and Agus hold him down from both sides.

'Guh....... You guys!
'Hmm, you had it coming, Lord Set. You should have come around to agree with me: ......

　Set, who was held down, looks at Cain.
　However, if Cain held the demon kings down here, the people's reaction would be to open the war at once.
　He clenched his fist powerfully while sitting down. Lizabeth's hand was gently placed on such a fist.
　Lizabeth crossed her gaze with Cain and slowly nodded and stood up.
　She stood beside Logosia and raised her right hand high in the air.

'Everyone's, listen to your mistress' words. It is true that I had some terrible experiences in the land of the human race. But we have also had some good encounters. With that in mind, we have decided that we will not go to war. No matter what the Demon King, Lord Dennis, may say, we have no intention of starting a war. That's why we have representatives from the human race here. Let me introduce to you. This is Lord Cain from the tribe nation.

　Lizabeth gives Cain a look.
　Cain understands that he has to get out of this situation, too.
　He stands up and stands next to Lizabeth.

''I am Cain von Silford from the human race nation, the Esfort Kingdom. On behalf of the human race nation--

　Cain began his speech to keep the war from starting.
