Episode 253
zerites
shaking!
Prince Zereitz was seen shaking violently, as if he had epilepsy.
A lot of blood rose above my tightly clenched fist. Her face turned red and it looked like she was going to explode at any moment.
『Well, if you stimulate him a little more, it looks like he’ll collapse from a cerebral hemorrhage.』
Mephisto burst out laughing as he looked at that guy.
『Still, I managed to hold back my anger. ha ha ha!”
[Just because you’re a member of the royal family doesn’t mean it hurts any less.]
『After all, fists are closer than the law, right?』
[If you really get into trouble with me even once here… At that time, I couldn’t even call myself the crown prince anymore.]
『Well, he is like that too. Even what little authority you had will be thrown to the ground.』
Mephisto shook his head.
As expected, he could not understand the hierarchy of humans.
If there’s someone you don’t like, just punch(?) and put an end to it.
Why is it twisting and turning so many times?
In fact, it was not easy for him to even understand that Prince Zereitz, who had no special military power or knowledge, was officially ranked above Elric.
Despite having watched humans from the sidelines for so many years.
I couldn’t quite understand why Mervinger ‘belonged’ somewhere or was ‘below’.
[I think it’s time to catch up.]
I don’t know if you know Mephisto’s true intentions.
Elric was watching Prince Zereitz’s reaction with keen eyes.
And just as he expected.
Prince Zereitz’s mind was completely covered with anger due to his already damaged pride.
‘Dare, dare!’
I wanted to immediately yell at the guards outside to drag Elric out, but the people who were guarding this barracks outside right now were the people that Prince Cromhell had appointed.
It’s not enough that he took away his woman, but now he’s destroying his own position.
I wanted to tear that guy to death.
‘If I had the power… !’
Prince Zereitz’s thoughts went that far.
In the end, he couldn’t help but think of the mini scroll that was still waiting for him in his arms.
I don’t know what that is.
Wouldn’t it be enough to give Elric a shit?
Maddened by that thought, Prince Zereitz didn’t hesitate any longer and reached for the mini-scroll.
That moment.
“That was it.”
“… !”
Prince Zereitz was about to take out the mini scroll, but when Elric suddenly reached out his hand, he hurriedly tried to shake him off.
But before that, a golden effect exploded from Elric’s fingertips. Dozens of thin beams of light shot out like bullets and wrapped around the mini scroll.
Thinking that the Mini Scroll would be taken away if it remained like this, Prince Zereitz did his best to tear the scroll apart.
Before that, gravity pulled the beam of light inward, and the mini scroll was eventually sucked into Elric’s hand.
“What are you doing! I can’t put it out… !”
“It is a scroll of a demon that summons wonders.”
Prince Zereitz suddenly got up from his seat and tried to yell, but instead had to stiffen.
Either that or not.
Elric opened the scroll wide and looked at the contents.
Inside, a strangely shaped magic circle was drawn.
On the right, it looked like letters, but it was full of old, unreadable letters. It reminded me of an old magic book, but it couldn’t fool Elric’s eyes.
Wasn’t Mephisto next to him in the first place?
“secret. Among them, it is the summoning book of the disaster beast that brings famine.』
“Did you know that this summons a disaster demon?”
『The price, of course, is the soul of the summoner and party… If I had called this out here, everyone around me would have been hit by disaster. Since the population density was high, it must have been worth seeing, right?
“This is a guy who steals the life force of humans and grows fast. Summoning a Demon Lord-level beast… “You tried to tear it up casually?”
『The guy who made this is pretty good, right? It’s a devil who specializes in producing things like this. Be a summoner. Did Azazel have something like this?』
Mephisto stroked his chin with his hand.
It was not that there were no demons who specialized in summoning, but there were still very few who possessed such outstanding academic knowledge.
Mephisto felt that he wanted to meet the creator of this scroll in person.
And if possible.
‘I want to eat you!’
If he could obtain this power of Azazel, he would certainly be able to obtain new areas that had never existed before.
Meanwhile.
“Are you out of your mind?”
Elric glared at Prince Zereitz, whose complexion was now pale.
In fact, he only knew that the magic circle contained unusual magical energy, but he could not grasp the details at a glance. This would probably require considerable research.
So, Mephisto recited what he said next to him, and Prince Zereitz blocked it so he could no longer escape.
“for a moment! Let me explain… !”
Prince Zereitz was able to realize later that this was a new trap that Elric had dug to catch him.
“His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.”

Prince Cromhel and the knights of the Royal Guard, who had already been waiting outside, were striding inside.
Prince Cromhell, fully armed, had an expressionless face.
The sight of a face that felt like it was carved out of ice, showing no emotion at all, and that did not even shed the energy known as lion flag, was even more terrifying to Prince Zereitz.
“I will arrest you on charges of collusion with demons and sympathizing with the rebellion. In accordance with Article 28, Paragraph 6 of the Imperial Criminal Code, I will also deprive you of your honor as crown prince until the charges are cleared.”
“Cromhell! That’s not it! Listen to me! okay. This is a trap. It wasn’t mine to begin with. Elric Mervinger was trying to force it into my hands! The author was the one who colluded with the demons… !”
“What are they doing? “Take him away!”
According to Prince Cromhel’s orders, Prince Zereitz was dragged away intact.
He struggled to let go immediately, but the guards did not even listen.
From now on, he will be imprisoned in the same prison as ordinary prisoners. From then on, his authority as the crown prince would fall to the ground, so it had to be seen that there was little chance of him being resurrected.
“Whoa… !”
Prince Cromhell gave the crown prince a cold look until his appearance completely disappeared, and then he sighed and took off his helmet.
His head was completely soaked with cold sweat.
It meant that there was considerable internal conflict and worry to get to this point.
No matter what Prince Zereitz may have thought of him, Prince Cromhell still thought of him as his own brother until the very end.
“… … “This is something I will never do again.”
“Are you going to be more aggressive around people from now on like a wild cat?”
“I guess so.”
Prince Cromhel smiled bitterly.
Elric was right.
If Prince Zereitz is stripped of his position as crown prince, other princes and princesses will begin to reveal their hidden ambitions.
Although it may seem like Prince Cromhell is closest to the throne right now, he still had to let down his guard.
There was no rule that said a place that had collapsed once could not collapse more than once.
Now it really becomes a life-threatening chicken race.
“How did you know your brother had something like that?”
Elric smiled strangely and lightly snapped his fingers.
Caw! Caw!
Outside, a crow made a loud noise.
Prince Cromhel’s face changed strangely.
“… “There has been surveillance so far.”
“It’s similar. Due to the nature of the Grigori remnants, there was also the thought that they could not remain silent.”
“I’m sure you have any weaknesses in me, right?”
“well.”
Elric finished his answer with a shrug and began pouring magic into the mini scroll.
Whoa!
The scroll emitted a bright halo of light. At the same time, the contents written inside came out one by one and swirled around in the air.
The letters danced, and the broken pieces of the magic circle scattered into the air.
The intention is to abolish the magic written in the scroll itself.
At the same time, while dismantling… Elric wanted to chase the source of this magic.
The attempt is to hack the magic and trace back the coordinates based on the data remaining in it.
Since it was a magic used by the Demon King, it was almost impossible to chase after it like this.
The problem was that Elric had the old knowledge of a family that was different from that of ordinary people, as well as the head of Mephisto.
“Then, please take care of me afterward.”
Elric turned his gaze back to the scroll while listening to Prince Cromhell’s answer.
“hurry! Hurry up! What if they run away!』
[Oh, please don’t urge me. And how do they know this?]
『That’s what it says! Anyway, go ahead! I’m so hungry that I’m now dizzy!』
[This makes me not want to help you anymore.]
Elric grunted and shouted the starter word.
“【Open】.”
The moment those words fell.
Hahaha!
The broken letters formed a dark portal.
“Then, Your Majesty, see you later.”
Elric threw himself into the portal.
now.
It was time to put an end to this tiresome war.
* * *
Elric’s plan to join hands with Prince Cromhell was very simple.
It was a yangdong operation.
Using the scroll taken from Prince Zereitz, Elric chases after the remnants of Grigori and wipes them out.
Prince Cromhell immediately moves the main palace and challenges the mountain people to a grand battle.
In that case, all of Batu’s eyes would have no choice but to focus on Prince Kromhel and the Great Prince.
Elric chased after the remnants of Grigori and was able to appear in the middle of the mountain people’s camp and attack them from behind.
It was because I thought that the only place the Grigori remnants could turn to as they fled was the camp of the mountain people.
and.
Elric’s thoughts were exactly right.
The moment I opened the portal and revealed myself.
“What is this…?” ?”
“Eh, Elric Mervinger?”
While Lapis and Lazuli were enjoying their meal, they were startled when they saw Elric suddenly appear on the table.
『These are them. From now on, the king’s daily food.』
Mephisto whetted his appetite while looking at Lapis and Lazuli.
Watching the last remaining demon lords of Azazel was a joy, as if they had already regained all their strength.
The two Demon Lords urgently tried to block Elric’s approach by activating their seals.
“【Three of the brain walls】.”
Elric was already deploying the magic he was preparing.
The eponymous magic. There was almost no one who could directly avoid the power of condensing a lot of brain energy and exploding it.
Crumbling!
Cuckoo cuckoo-
A huge amount of heat storm blew in all directions, completely exploding the scene where Elric was.
Wizard who swallowed talent
