Chapter 232 The Demon King's Army in Preparation for Battle

"Hey, isn't this Max?"

On his way back to Axel after delivering the message, Barnier encountered a pale-faced young man. The shared aura of a great demon allowed him to quickly recognize the young man's true identity, and he greeted him directly.

"Who are you?"

However, the pale-faced youth seemed not to recognize him.

"What a hassle, you always manage to forget about me."

Barnier exuded his demonic aura and pointed to his iconic mask.

"I am Banir, the demon with the clairvoyant eyes!"

"Ah, it's Barnier, my dear friend!"

The young man examined the black and white mask carefully for a while before finally appearing to remember.

His face also showed the joy of meeting an old friend in a foreign land.

"Help me..."

Before the two great demons could even exchange pleasantries, a faint cry for help came from the satchel that Max was carrying.

Upon opening it, it was none other than Aldap, except that the obese nobleman's body was now twisted into a ball, and his flesh seemed to have been compressed.

"Oh, you dare to summon the Demon of Despair? You human are quite courageous. In the limited time you have left, you will suffer the most desperate and painful things."

Barnier saw through Aldap's situation at a glance and said to him with a smile.

"Barnier, do you want some?"

Seeing that He seemed interested in the humans in the package, Marks asked Him questions enthusiastically.

"No, I don't really like feelings of despair. You can enjoy it yourself."

The two demons soon parted ways, and Barnier successfully returned to Axel, bringing Broly a reply from the Demon King.

The reply did not convey the Demon King's willingness to surrender, but rather stated that he would fight any challenger.

"We have already told the Demon King that we were also defeated by you, but he has no intention of backing down. Instead, he has decided to gather the entire Demon King army to face you."

"Is that so? Well, there's nothing we can do about that."

Broly put the reply aside and looked at Megumin and Aqua, who had just returned from taking Princess Alice out to play that morning.

"I'm going to make dinner now. Would Mr. Barnier like to join us?"

"If food represents your anger."

. . . .

"Broly, listen to me, Alice is so pitiful. She rarely leaves the royal city. From birth until recently, this was the first time she had ever gone out to play..."

Youyou looked at Alice with some pity and said.

"Honestly, as royalty, they should be indulging in food, drink, and entertainment. How can they treat such a young child so cruelly!"

Huihui also said indignantly.

"The Belzegu royal family are generally quite responsible."

On the contrary, Darkness, who always believed that nobles should be bullies, didn't need to assume the Belzegu royal family with the utmost malice this time.

"I'm not that miserable, I just don't have much time to play. My father and brothers have a lot of responsibilities, and as the princess of the Belzegu Kingdom, I also have to work hard."

Princess Alice, who was told she was miserable, didn't feel that she was that miserable. She just occasionally envied other children her age.

After spending a few days together, Aqua and the others grew much closer to Alice. Among them, Megumin and Yuuyu, being close in age to the little princess, had the best relationship with Alice and could already be considered good friends.

Upon learning that the Demon King refused to surrender, Megumin immediately said, "Broly, you must defeat the Demon King."

That way, Alice won't have to endure the grueling days of preparing for the princess's battle anymore. I'll take her with me on our adventures then.

"Megumin~"

Princess Alice's eyes widened, and she was somewhat moved.

"Of course, that's on the condition that you acknowledge me as your boss."

Huihui turned her head and added to the little princess.

"Yes, boss!"

Princess Alice, being rather naive, actually agreed.

[That means I'm no longer the youngest in the team!]

Huihui thought to herself, crossing her arms.

"We're already so familiar, Your Highness Alice, won't you consider giving us more compensation?"

Aqua leaned closer and asked.

What do you want?

"Good wine. The royal family must have many good bars. Could we get an advance of one or two bottles?"

"Aqua, that's very rude of you!"

Darkness quickly stopped her.

"it is good."

Princess Alice, however, didn't think there was any problem.

Today, Huihui and others treated her to some local delicacies she had never tried before on the street.

Therefore, it's only right to send some good wine to Aqua, the elder in this family.

. . . .

While Aqua was tricking Princess Alice into giving her the royal wine, the Demon King's army was also busy mobilizing its forces.

Since the messenger was Banir, and he spoke of his defeat in a serious manner, the Demon King Yasaka Kyoichi did not take the letter of surrender as a joke.

"Even Barnier failed, so who exactly is this guy who wants to come and attack us?"

The headless knight Beldia held his head, frowning slightly.

"The letter didn't say anything, it just told me that if I refused to surrender, the other side would come to the Demon King's castle a week later and defeat me, the Demon King."

Yasaka Kyouichi answered.

"Damn it, even if he defeated Barnier, he shouldn't look down on us like that, saying things that make it seem like he could easily wipe us out if he wanted to."

The Poisonous Slime Hans was very unhappy. Although he knew how powerful Banir was, he did not think that the entire Demon King's army should be afraid of someone who had only defeated Banir.

"Where's Wiz? Why isn't he here?"

The most senior officer in the Demon King's army, a fallen angel, asked the question.

"It's normal that she didn't come, because it was she who had Barnier deliver the letter urging us to surrender and the news that someone was attacking us."

Serena rubbed her temples. She was the only human officer in the Demon King's army, serving as a strategist and in charge of intelligence work.

"As for where the enemy is, I have also investigated and found out that it is in Axel. More than half a year ago, a huge holy aura appeared in the direction of Axel. The guy who wrote this letter may be the new reincarnated hero from another world."

As Serena said this, she glared at Beldia. Half a year ago, she had sent this guy to investigate the matter of the divine aura, but the bastard treated it as a vacation and had no information until he was recalled.

The headless knight quickly turned his head to the other side. As everyone knows, a hero may not be strong when he first arrives, but once he develops, he may become a great enemy of the Demon King's army.

"Now is not the time to blame anyone; I believe in everyone's strength."

The old demon king smoothed things over.

"I, Beldia, swear that I will annihilate all enemies who invade the Demon King's castle!"

The headless knight immediately replied.

"The Crimson Demon Clan..."

"Except for the Crimson Demons, since they can use teleportation magic, and I can't catch up with them."

Beldia quickly patched it up.

The other cadres looked at him, somewhat speechless.

"Rest assured, Father, whoever challenges us this time, I will slay them with my sword!"

The horned, dashing demon girl spoke thus.

"That's reassuring, but it's always better to be cautious."

During this period, I will also use my own strength to elevate the soldiers under my command to the level of officers.

We must be at the peak of our Demon King's army to face the approaching enemy who intends to subjugate us!

The old demon king said.
