Chapter 565: The devil appears?
The next day, a group of Fujimaru Ritsuka, Black Rabbit, Leticia, and Jin arrived in front of the [Thousand Eyes] store.
"Black Rabbit——!"
"Eaaah?!"
Black Rabbit was once again sneak-attacked by ShiroYasha who rushed out, and then everyone was once again brought into the store by ShiroYasha under the disgusted eyes of the female clerk.
Since Jin from the community is also here, I leave the speech to the other party this time.
So Ren spoke nervously:
"Bai, Lord Bai Yaksha, do you have any business with us this time?"
Bai Yaksha nodded slightly, his expression became more serious, and asked:
"I heard that you made a declaration to "defeat the Demon King" and are willing to take on all business related to the Demon King. Is this true?"
Ren nodded affirmatively and said:
"Yes, if we, who have had our name and flag taken away, want to gain visibility as a community as soon as possible, we think this is the best way."
In response to Jin's answer, Shirayasha's eyes suddenly sharpened and he asked in a deep voice: "You should be aware of the risks, right? Such rumors will also attract the Demon King. Is this okay?"
Ren nodded solemnly and said with a serious expression: "Yes! We are mentally prepared."
"If we want to take back the flag and name of our community, there is no other way. Even if doing so may attract unrelated demon kings, we are also aware of it!"
"..."
ShiroYasha closed his eyes and seemed to be thinking carefully about Jin's speech.
After meditating for a while, she opened her eyes again, and a helpless smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"Okay. Since this is a decision you made after careful consideration, if I say more, I will be meddling in other people's business."
Such a statement was an admission of their strategy, and Jin smiled with relief as if he had passed the exam.
Fujimaru Ritsuka gave him a thumbs up as a sign of encouragement, then looked at ShiroYasha and asked: "So ShiroYasha, what is the purpose of calling us here today?"
"Well, that's right. Let's get to the point."
Bai Yaksha put away the folding fan in his hand and said with a smile: "Since your community has taken the name of [Destroying the Demon King], then I just have an incident related to the [Demon King] that I want to entrust to you."
"What do you think, Mr. Ren?"
"!" No wonder Bai Yaksha asked those questions just now. It turns out that the real topic is buried in it.
Demon King, did you not expect to encounter the natural disaster spreading in the small garden so soon?
Fujimaru Ritsuka's expression became more serious.
Since there is a demon king, it means that somewhere is about to be destroyed like [NoName], right?
The problem children looked eager to try, while Black Rabbit had a trace of worry in his eyes.
But no matter what, after swallowing his saliva, Ren nodded vigorously and said: "No, no problem! We are happy to accept the commission."
So Bai Yaksha began to introduce the situation to everyone.
Not surprisingly, the target location that the Demon King is planning to attack this time is the upcoming Fire Dragon Birth Festival in the North District.
Since the North District is a land where elves, ghosts, and powerful races called demons coexist, the security is unstable.
Because of this, the North District has several class rulers.
The community that was predicted to be attacked by the devil this time, [Salamandra (Fire Salamander)], is one of them.
"Did you know? The community [Salamandra] that has established a base at the five-digit outer gate of 54545 is about to undergo a generational change."
"Huh?"
"I heard that he retired due to illness. That's right. As a Yalong, my predecessor is indeed old. In short, this grand festival is the birth ceremony of the new class ruler [Fire Dragon]."
"Yaron?!"
Kasukabe Yoshi's eyes instantly became sparkling, but Jin on the side lowered his eyes sadly. Only then did everyone realize that they and [Salamandra] seemed to have a good relationship in the past.
Then, Ren asked:
"So, who is the leader now? It is indeed the eldest daughter Sarah, right?" Bai Yaksha shook his head and said:
"No, the leader who inherited the name of Fire Dragon is Sandora."
"...Eh? Sandora?"
Ren was stunned for a moment and said in shock:
“But she is just eleven years old like me?!”
"Young master, aren't you the same, and you have become the leader of our community?"
"Although that's the case, but...!"
"To show that you care so much, does it mean that the other person is your little girlfriend?"
"No way!!!"
The problem children suddenly started teasing Jin. Shiroyasha shook his head and laughed. He waited until the scene calmed down a bit before continuing to explain.
Indeed, as my colleague said, since Sandora is still young, this birth festival will be held together with Shiro Yaksha, the class ruler of the East District.
As for why he didn't find other class rulers in the same district, Bai Yaksha didn't explain clearly, but everyone could more or less guess some of the reasons.
Although they are both class rulers, since they all manage the same area, they can be regarded as competitors to a certain extent, right?
All in all, it is a very narrow approach, and it seems to be no different from human beings in power.
but--
Even if a serious incident like [Demon King Attack] occurs, other strata rulers in the North District are still unwilling to cooperate. I am afraid that the problem is far more than they think.
"Well, let's get back to the topic of the Demon King."
Bai Yaksha clapped his hands, interrupting everyone's thinking, and then continued.
The reason why she knew in advance that the Demon King would attack the Fire Dragon Birth Festival was because a cadre in her [Thousand Eyes] who could use [Future Information] as a gift gave her a gift for this birth festival.
Although this is not a gift that makes people happy.
"In short, all we know is that there will be an attack by the Demon King. As for the time of the attack, the identity of the Demon King, etc., we don't know anything."
"But don't worry too much. All you need to do is stay with Sandora on the day of the festival to deal with emergencies that may arise at any time."
"As for the Demon King——"
Bai Yasha opened his fan, puffed out his chest, and let out a hearty and confident laugh:
"Of course it will be up to me, the strongest class ruler, Lord Shiro Yaksha, to deal with it!"
But after hearing this, Kaikai Izayoi was unhappy and said: "Hey. They said it was related to the Demon King, but in the end they just asked us to be bodyguards? [Salamandra] Can't you even spare the manpower to protect your leader? ?”
"Of course it's not to this point, it's just that I want to add another insurance measure. After all, you are a community that I am quite optimistic about!"
Bai Yasha laughed playfully, but it didn't have any consoling effect.
But at this moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka suddenly raised his hand and said:
"Shiroyasha, I want to ask a question."
Hearing this, everyone's eyes immediately gathered. Bai Yaksha nodded and said:
"What's wrong? Please tell me."
"that,"
Fujimaru Ritsuka scratched his cheek and said:
"I was thinking that if the Demon King still attacks the festival even though he knows that Shiroyasha is present, he should imagine the scenario of 'the other party has a way to specifically target you' Better?"
"——!!!"
Fujimaru Ritsuka's speech made Shiroyasha wake up from his dream. His face immediately changed and his expression became solemn.
"indeed……"
On the side, Izayoi Izayoi laughed and said: "In this case, it is our turn to appear, right?"
